驯龙大师 · 22 Guarding the Invisible Dragons
CHAPTER 5 THE THIRD HORN Diego, why do you think the baby dragons' parents might be in danger?" Drake wondered. The wizard began to read aloud. "Invisible Dragons are not invisible all the time. They can become visible at will." Val patted the head of the fig-eating baby dragon. "That's a pretty cool power, little one." Diego tapped the page. "But in order to keep that ability, the baby dragons must eat the fruit of the magical Dragon Tree before their third horn sprouts. There is only one tree, and it grows on Dove Island."
第五章第三只角迭戈,你为什么认为小龙的父母会有危险呢?”德雷克很好奇。 巫师开始大声朗读。 “隐形龙并非总是隐形的。 他们可以随意出现。” 瓦尔拍了拍吃无花果的小龙的头。 “这是一种很酷的能力,小家伙。” 迭戈敲了敲书页。“但为了保持这种能力,小龙必须在第三个角长出来之前吃下魔法龙树的果实。 这里只有一棵树,它长在鸽子岛上。”
Queen Sofia raised an eyebrow. "Dove Island is one of the most dangerous places in all of my queendom!" "That's why I'm afraid for the parents. They must have gone to the island to find this fruit," Diego added.
索菲亚王后扬起了眉毛。 “鸽子岛是我的王国里最危险的地方之一!”“这就是为什么我担心他们的父母。 他们一定是去岛上找这种水果的,”迭戈补充道。
"What makes the island so dangerous?" Drake asked the queen. "Rushing rivers, steep cliffs, and wild weather," she replied. "Anyone who has tried to settle there has quickly given up." Carlos looked at the wizard. "How much time do we have?" Diego examined the nearest baby dragon. "I can feel a bump underneath the scales. The third horn could sprout at any time."
“是什么使这个岛如此危险?”德雷克问王后。 “湍急的河流、陡峭的悬崖和恶劣的天气,”她回答。 “任何试图在那里定居的人都很快放弃了。” 卡洛斯看着巫师。 “我们还有多少时间?”迭戈打量着离他最近的那条小龙。 “我能感觉到鳞片下面有个肿块。 第三个角随时都可能长出来。”
"I have a question," Val piped up. "Why would both parents leave the babies behind to get the fruit?" "I do not know. And since they have not returned, I must guess they are both in grave danger," the wizard replied. Just then, Drake saw one of the baby dragons teetering on top of the tower wall. "Oh no!" Drake yelled.
“我有一个问题,”瓦尔尖声说。 “为什么父母都要丢下孩子去摘水果呢?”“我不知道。 既然他们还没有回来,我猜他们俩都很危险。”巫师回答。 就在这时,德雷克看到一条小龙摇摇晃晃地站在塔楼的墙头上。 “哦,不!”德雷克喊道。
