《星际战甲(Warframe)》【情报】结合仪式铭刻：沙漠开膛者-气泡游戏网

电梯的门在他们面前关上时，排着队等待救援的生还者们脸上充满了困惑。

随着电梯发出的嗡嗡声，我们逐渐穿越堡垒往下。我转向Avantus，微笑地说：「我开始相信妳会带着他们全部和我们一起走了。」

「无稽之谈，Bilsa，那简直不可行。」Avantus回应。「妳知道我们必须找到一个安全的地方并且重建执行者会议，我们没有时间进行搜救任务。况且，那些人知道自己的地位且只不过在履行他们的义务。若我们的Orokin帝国荣光再现，我会记得他们的荣耀的。」

我们暂时安全了。当感染者佔领整座堡垒，堡垒便会关闭。Avantus 的执行者身分意味着她，以及我，是少数几个能够任意在船舰之间游走的人。

当电梯逐渐缓慢下来，我将关上的门中的控制覆盖过去。在我们似乎听了一辈子之后，我问：「妳有听到甚幺吗？」

「不，我也没有闻到任何气味，走吧。」Avantus举起她的手枪并这幺说。门后是一个昏暗的房间，电梯的光照射出分散的影子，但并不是感染者，我们活了下来。

「你们，向前走一步。」Avantus 命令着，而阴影中出现了几个模糊的身影。

「是Grineer士兵！」在其他人逐渐靠过来时，我像个小孩般兴奋地说着。

「不，他们是Grineer的工人，对我们来说一点用也没有。」Avantus说道。儘管经过了许多事，她仍然在她带有纹饰、金黄的披饰衬托下显得十分高雅。

「没有人教过你们礼仪吗？」我大喊：「这里可是有一位执行者站在你们面前呢！」工人们面面相觑，接着身形最庞大的工人在我们面前跪下并且鞠躬，其他的Grineer见状便照做了。

Avantus不可置信地摇了摇头，到附近的控制台打开灯光。我们身处在一间技工工坊，装有工具的箱子在墙上整齐排列着，补给箱亦佔满了房间的边缘。

「这边的规範显示出飞机棚要穿过下一个房间才能到达。」Avantus边说边绕过仍跪着的Grineer们，走向后门。

「不，停下！」大Grineer表示反对，「危险。」我们仍然继续前进，靠近门时，我们十分确定门正在摇晃并且布满了爪痕。

「那些蠢蛋，」Avantus咒骂着「他们说这一区并未受到影响。」

「听起来并没有很多感染者，我们能够开出一条血路吗？」我问。

「妳说甚幺？就我们两个？在只有手枪，没有堕落者协助的情况下吗？」她厉声问道。

「那幺…」我朝着Grineer的方向示意。

「在没有武器的情况下？这样子他们连诱饵也当不成。」她说。

我们沉默地来回踱步，直到最高大的Grineer跑向墙上的一个工具箱，并尝试着以蛮力把箱子撬开。Avan注意到了之后朝着附近的控制台一挥手，箱子便应声开启。

剩下的工人们纷纷跑了过去，拿起大型的研磨锯以及雷射切割器，并且将安全设备当作防弹衣穿在身上。

Avantus对着工人说：「若我看到了甚幺，希望你们就能把它切开。」

最高大的那个微笑并点头示意。他真的知道那些感染者们可能会对他做甚幺吗？

工人们肩併着肩，沿着门排成一直行，而我和Avantus以及其他一些工人站在几步远的后方。感染者们砰砰地捶打并咆啸着，显然他们能够察觉我们的存在，他们身上的恶臭渗过了门，钻进我们的鼻孔。

Avantus 打量着我，说：「Bilsa，毫无疑问地，我们不会与这样的人分享那艘船。」

我斜眼看向她，心想：为甚幺她要在这些工人们前这样说？

「噢，孩子，他们没有理解力的。」她笑着说「他们只要做指派给他们的工作就心满意足了，差别只在于现在要被切割的是感染者的血肉而不是金属废料。」我看向Grineer们，他们看起来的确未受影响。

「Grineer们，开工啰！」听到Avantus下达的命令后，Grineer们举起了手中的锯子。我将大厅的门打开，一群感染者便在刃片组成的墙之下被粉碎、倒下，内脏在我们脚边布了满地。就算这些怪物们将一名工人撕裂，另一位工人便会随之补上。「前进！」Avantus大喊，Grineer组成的人墙随之往前行进，这道死亡之墙将它路径上的一切全部切了开来。

在大厅的末端，我们到了机棚的门，準备面对最糟的情况－－门后可能有着数以百计的感染者们。Avantus 让Grineer们有时间清理他们工具上残留的脏器并且稍微调整呼吸，接着她朝我点头，示意我将锁解开。我们打起精神準备面对门后面……甚幺也没有，看不见感染者的蹤迹，只有孤伶伶的一艘船在许多固定架的另一端。大伙们都鬆了一口气，冲刺越过空旷的机场。

当我们终于到达船边，Avantus说：「Bilsa，打开舱门，」并轻声加了一句：「我会确保我们的旅程中没有其他的『客人』。」我走向最近的控制台，Grineer们将我围住，以免有任何威胁接近。Avantus 站在船的入口，她的身旁也有一些士兵正在保卫她的安全。

「有更多的来了。」Avantus指向一群从我们来的地方涌现的感染者，并大声吼着：「Grineer们，攻击那些感染者！去吧！」

Grineer们僵在原地不动，虽然锯片正轰鸣着，但是他们仍然站在原地，不进行下一步行动。

Avantus被他们的反应激怒了，加大了音量：「我说前进！马上！」Grineer依旧不愿从舱门移开脚步。

「门开了！」我大喊，转过身的同时正好撞见最高大的Grineer将他手中的锯子送入Avantus的脊椎的一幕。金属与骨头摩擦製造出来的高频率声响盖过了她凄厉的尖叫，随后，她便朝着地板倒下。她一身洁白的长袍如今被染成血红，她死去的双眼直直地望穿了我。

我开始逃跑，但脸却硬生生吃了一记，使我吃痛地跪了下来。

一个身影垄罩了我，是那个最高大的Grineer，他开口道：「现在轮到你来为我们工作了。我命令你开船。」

－－－－－－－－－我是分隔线喔－－－－－－－－－

看来这次故事的主角是Orokin里的贵族或是领导阶层，拥有极大的权力，

不过Grineer们果然不是省油的灯，长期被压迫也练就出一身面不改色的本领，

在最后反将她们两个一军，感觉颇惨啊……。

故事中大概也能推断堕落者是Orokin时期就有的产物，可能是保镳一样的存在吧？

然后不得不说切割者的刀片真的很痛，皮薄的战甲一下子就GG了。

还有挥挥手就能解锁是甚幺方便的功能阿！！

恩然后翻的不通顺的地方还请见谅

第一次尝试翻译比较长的文章XD

－－－－－－－－－－原文如下－－－－－－－－－－

The face of the survivors, all lined up for evacuation, were etched with confusion when the lift doors closed in front of them.

We descended to the hum of the lift flying through the tower. I turned and smiled at Avantus, "I was beginning to believe you were going to bring them all with us."

"Nonsense, Bilsa, that's simply not feasible." Avantus replied. "You know we need to find safety and re-establish the Congress of Executors, we have no time for a rescue mission. Besides, those people know their place and they just did their duty. I will see to it they are honored when our Orokin Empire returns to glory."

We were safe for the moment. When the Infestation took over the entire tower went into lockdown. Avantus's Executor status meant that she, and by extension I, were among the few people who could move freely about the massive vessel.

When the lift slowed and I overrode the controls to the doors closed. We listened for what seemed like forever, "Do you hear anything?" I said.

"No, I don't smell anything either, let's go," said Avantus raising her pistol. The doors opened to a darkened room. The light of the lift illuminated scattering figures but this wasn't the Infested, we were still alive.

"You there. Step forth." Avantus commanded and out of the shadows came several burly figures.

"Grineer soldiers!" I said with an almost childlike excitement as others joined them.

"Grineer workers, useless to us," said Avantus. Despite everything, she still looked glorious in her full regalia and golden syandana.

"Have you not been taught protocol?" I shouted, "an Executor stands before you." The workers look at each other puzzled, then the biggest one kneeled and bowed before us. One by one the other Grineer followed.

Avantus shook her head in disbelief and went to the nearby console to turn on the lights. We were in the mechanical workshop. Tools in cases line the walls and supply crates edged the room.

"That precept said the hangar is through the next hall," Avantus stepped around the still kneeling grineer and toward the rear doors.

"No, stop!" protested the big Grineer, "Danger." We kept walking but sure enough when we got close the doors shook and moaned with the scraping of claws.

"Those imbeciles," Avantus cursed. "They siad this sector wasn't compromised."

"It' doesn't sound like that many. Can we fight through?" I asked.

"what? Just the two of us, with pistols and no Corrupted?" she snapped.

"What about…" I motioned to the Grineer workers.

"With no weapons? There's not enough of them to be decoys." she said.

We paced in silence until one of the Grineer, that big one, ran to a tool case on the wall and tried to force it open.

Avantus noticed this and waved her hands over the nearby console to unlock the case.

The rest of the workers rushed over and grabbed the bigger grinder saws and plasma cutters. They put on safety equipment as if it were body armour.

"Always wanting to cut something I see," said Avantus to the worker.

The big one nodded and smiled. Did he have any idea what those things might do to him?

They lined up shoulder to shoulder against the door, while we stood a few paces behind with a couple more at our side. The Infested thumped and howled, they could sense us. Their stench penetrated the doors and attacked our nostrils.

Avantus looked over at me, "Bilsa, it goes without saying, we won't be sharing that ship with the likes of these."

I gave her a sideways look, why would she say that in front of them?

"Oh child, they do not have the comprehension." She laughed. "They are content to do the job they were bred to do, only now they get to cut infested flesh instead of scrap metal." I looked at the Grineer, they did seem unfazed.

"Grineer…work!" commanded Avantus and the Grineer rev'd up their saws. I opened the hall doors and a wave of Infested crashed and collapsed against a solid wall of blades. Viscera pooled at our feet. A monster would tear one down only to have another Grineer take its place. "Move!" she yelled and the Grineer wall marched forward, a line of death that eviscerated anything in its path.

We reached the hangar doors at the end of the hall and prepared for the worst, on the other side could be hundreds. Avantus gave the Grineer a moment to shake the guts out of their tools and catch their breath, then she nodded for me to release the locks. We all braced ourselves as the doors opened to…nothing, no Infested, just a lone ship on the other side of a massive hanger. Relieved, we sprinted across the open expanse.

As we approached the ship Avantus said, "Bilsa, you open the shuttle," and then added quietly,"I'll make sure we don't have any guests for our trip." I went to work at the nearest console and the Grineer encircled me to fend of any possible threats. Avantus stood at the ship's entrance withe a few more of the grunts guarding her.

"More coming." She pointed at a swarm of Infested charging from where we came. "Grineer, attack them.GO!" she bellowed.

The Grineer stiffened, their blades roared but stayed their ground.

Incensed, she cried louder, "I said go, NOW!" but the Grineer did not move from the shuttle door.

"It's open." I shouted, turning just in time to see the biggest Grineer drive his saw right through Avantus' s spine. The high pitched whir of metal on bone masked her screams and she collapsed to the floor. Her pearl white robes were now dyed crimson. Her dead eyes looked through me.

I started to run but was struck in the face and knocked to my knees.

The big Grineer loomed over me. "Now you work for us. Make the shuttle go."
