10 Fire!

CHAPTER 10 FIRE! Drake, Heru, and Rori looked around the fourth room. Vulcan's flames lit up the darkness. Drake could see lots of thick ropes hanging down from the high ceiling.

第十章火！德雷克、赫鲁和罗里环顾了第四间屋子。 火神的火焰照亮了黑暗。 德雷克可以看到很多粗绳子从高高的天花板上垂下来。

Then he spotted a door across the room. The door was made of a thin stone slab. A rope connected the door to a heavy stone cube that dangled above the floor. Another rope connected the cube to a metal loop sticking out of the wall. "All right, this must be Vulcan's challenge," Rori said. "He needs to burn the rope that connects the cube to that metal loop, right?" She pointed to the rope attached to the hanging cube.

然后他发现房间对面有一扇门。 这扇门是用一块薄石板做的。 一根绳子把门和一个悬挂在地板上的沉重的石头方块连接起来。 另一根绳子把立方体和墙上伸出来的金属环连接起来。 “好吧，这一定是瓦肯的挑战，”罗里说。 “他需要烧掉连接立方体和金属环的绳子，对吧？”她指着挂在立方体上的绳子。

"Good thinking!" Heru replied. "Then the cube will fall. And when it does, the door will lift up." "Just be careful, Rori," Drake said. "Make sure Vulcan burns through only that one rope — or all those ropes on the ceiling will go up in flames." Rori rolled her eyes. "You sound like Griffith," she said. "I am so good at controlling Vulcan now. I can ask him to make a big flame, or just a really tiny one."

“好主意!”Heru答道。 “那么立方体就会掉下来。当它打开时，门就会打开。” “小心点，罗里，”德雷克说。 “确保火神只烧了一根绳子，否则天花板上的所有绳子都会着火。” 罗里翻了个白眼。“你说话的口气像格里菲思，”她说。 “我现在很擅长控制火神。 我可以让他生一个大火焰，或者只是一个非常小的火焰。”

Rori pointed. "Vulcan, burn that rope!" she cried. Her Dragon Stone glowed bright green at first, but then it flickered and went out. Vulcan roared. He reared back. iohlik. A fireball shot from his mouth!

Rori指出。“火神，烧掉那根绳子！”她喊道。 她的龙石起初发出亮绿色的光，但随后就闪烁着熄灭了。 火神咆哮着。他后退了几步。 一个火球从他嘴里射了出来！

The flames hit the ropes hanging above them. Within seconds, the ropes on the ceiling caught fire!

火焰击中了悬挂在他们上方的绳子。 几秒钟之内，天花板上的绳子就着火了！
