2 The Dragon Show

CHAPTER 2 THE DRAGON SHOW King Roland marched across the grass. He was a big man with red hair and a bushy beard. Six guards marched behind him. "The dragons are looking fine, wizard," he said in his booming voice. He nodded at Worm. "Even that brown one."

第二章龙的表演罗兰国王穿过草地。 他身材高大，红头发，留着浓密的胡子。 六个卫兵跟在他后面。 “火龙看起来很好，巫师。”他用洪亮的声音说。 他朝虫子点了点头。“即使是那个棕色的。”

The king has never seemed to like Worm, Drake thought. So what if he looks like a big, brown worm? He is a powerful Earth Dragon! "I'm glad that you are pleased, Your Majesty," said Griffith. "I am not pleased yet!" the king said. "I need to see what these beasts can do. This is the first time that I will show my dragon army to the world. When we march into the Kingdom of Arkwood, everyone will be amazed!" Ana stepped forward. "They're not an army! They're just dragons."

国王好像从来就不喜欢蚯蚓，德雷克心想。 如果他看起来像条棕色的大虫子又怎样？ 他是一条强大的土龙！“我很高兴您感到高兴，陛下。”格里菲思说。 “我还不高兴呢！”国王说。 “我要看看这些野兽能做什么。 这是我第一次向世界展示我的龙军队。 当我们进军阿克伍德王国时，每个人都会大吃一惊的！”安娜走上前去。 “他们不是军队！”它们就是龙。”

A guard glared at Ana. "Silence, girl!" he barked. "They are more than just dragons," said the king. "When word gets out that my kingdom is protected by dragons, nobody will dare attack us." Maldred might attack us, Drake thought. But he did not say that out loud. If the king didn't listen to Griffith's warning, he won't listen to mine.

一个卫兵怒视着安娜。“安静，姑娘！”他吼道。 “它们不仅仅是龙。”国王说。 “等我的王国被龙保护的消息传出去，就没人敢攻击我们了。” 玛德雷德可能会攻击我们，德雷克想。 但他并没有大声说出来。 如果国王不听格里菲斯的警告，他也不会听我的。

Griffith clapped his hands. "Dragon Masters, let us show King Roland what you can do. Please line up!"

格里菲思拍了拍手。 “龙师们，让我们给罗兰国王看看你们的能耐。 请排队！”

The Dragon Masters had practiced for days. Drake felt excited. He couldn't wait for King Roland to see Worm's powers! Griffith turned to the king. "First, I would like to present Bo and Shu, his Water Dragon." Bo stepped forward and bowed. Then he waved his hand at Shu.

龙师们已经练习了好几天了。 德雷克感到很兴奋。他迫不及待地想让罗兰国王看看虫子的力量！格里菲斯转向国王。 “首先，我要介绍他的水龙伯和叔。” 波走上前去，鞠了一躬。 然后他朝舒挥了挥手。

Shu floated in the air above them. Her blue scales shimmered. She opened her mouth and a stream of water came out. It flowed in a circle around them all. Then the water turned into misty droplets and fell to the ground. King Roland nodded, smiling.

舒漂浮在他们上方的空中。 她的蓝色鳞片闪闪发光。 她张开嘴，一股水流了出来。 它在他们周围围成一个圈。 然后，水变成了雾蒙蒙的小水滴，落在地上。 罗兰国王点点头，微笑着。
