自從那場攻防戰後已過了數天。73Please respect copyright.PENANAVtcP3NcL6r
リーン對本店的服務讚不絕口。憑著她的人脈,下城咖啡館在往來魔界的冒險者間也打響了名聲。73Please respect copyright.PENANA7Yot9jHbnn
73Please respect copyright.PENANA7zDfuTqgg9
我同時也以隊伍裡的三個女生為藍本,讓洛維詩創作了三個漫畫風格的角色,印刷在廣告上為咖啡館作招徠。73Please respect copyright.PENANA2KqrAq4wvr
雖然她本人十分害羞,但慕名而來的客人確實因此變多了。73Please respect copyright.PENANA9vhvx7shLh
73Please respect copyright.PENANAeHuO4jDyn2
見客人人數開始可觀起來,露米奈借了我們幾台活動木偶處理雜務。那麼我們就能抽空參與冒險活動,而不必讓業務停擺了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAd5NuwNcQog
73Please respect copyright.PENANAbWHPne0U5S
這個中午,咖啡館第一次坐滿了人。73Please respect copyright.PENANAEcskgBJDOP
澤妮亞在吧台忙得不可開交,而我和洛維詩則手忙腳亂地處理各種雜務。73Please respect copyright.PENANAsOXEFf180M
忙到將近黃昏,大部分的客人都已盡興而歸;只剩下兩個女孩子還留在店裡。73Please respect copyright.PENANAjPTyLgSNxK
73Please respect copyright.PENANA3UzeMyDAT7
那是兩個銀髮紅瞳的少女。其中一位戴著皇冠和機械外裝,是近期偶爾會在上城區看見的ブリキングRX1・アルマ。73Please respect copyright.PENANA9FSt6VtIcD
另外一位少女則從沒見過,不過好像跟RX1很投緣的樣子。73Please respect copyright.PENANArLOAkObUi7
73Please respect copyright.PENANAY6vaeZulcD
「您好。請問對本店還滿意嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAPUFotyOoBK
見客人已經減少,洛維詩選擇親自招呼她們,而不是讓活動木偶代勞。73Please respect copyright.PENANAuZb28QVSxd
73Please respect copyright.PENANAqqxCLHpAte
「真棒!跟我上次來時相比,簡直是煥然一新。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAyXhmhdMVIP
RX1笑著回道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA1UM1yS24W0
73Please respect copyright.PENANAGWrBTulVEt
「那就太好了。記得跟認識的朋友介紹本店喔。73Please respect copyright.PENANAZLlGfu55ze
來,這兩杯免費。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAAOePv0fMSj
洛維詩朝她們的杯子斟滿了澤妮亞的特調飲品。73Please respect copyright.PENANA7whJb8vDD7
RX1連連點頭,但她旁邊的少女卻沒有回話,而是靜靜打量著我們幾個。73Please respect copyright.PENANAsDZfzgEpcl
73Please respect copyright.PENANAVX9bNCz52k
「……嗯?怎麼了嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANANUqJPNFDDg
洛維詩不解地問道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAK9CXthRceR
73Please respect copyright.PENANAQDJtrHsOp5
「啊,你們不要在意。她是最近才學會變成人型的アルマ,還沒有習慣跟別人相處。73Please respect copyright.PENANAbnVqJvJyJY
我也是剛認識她不久,所以才帶她來咖啡館熟絡一下阿高普路斯的生活。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAYJMv8zD7i5
RX1連忙解說著。73Please respect copyright.PENANAg0sT5T0dRm
73Please respect copyright.PENANAWbikZzF8Sh
「……請問,你們是冒險者嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANA0E7LtqSciQ
另一位アルマ突然向我們問道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAdPNrTxtlJD
不過她觀察力倒是挺敏銳的,明明我們三個現在的裝束都不像冒險者。73Please respect copyright.PENANA1SwCBmYuD5
73Please respect copyright.PENANAudfM5e5B0T
「沒錯喔。雖然姊姊最近才重新開始冒險,但有什麼問題都可以找我們哦。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAa94ZvpXwc6
洛維詩就像是在北國給小孩子唸繪本時似的,溫柔地向アルマ說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA4tF6j7wBuy
73Please respect copyright.PENANAygERoBG7UR
「那,你們知道冒險者們常說的「紙片(アナザーページ)」是什麼嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAFcen62qJl9
那好像在冒險者間很流行的樣子。是某種強化裝置嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAI9HukrRa4r
73Please respect copyright.PENANAFN7a53Yl3y
洛維詩僵在了原地,以眼神向我求援。73Please respect copyright.PENANAEUhiEC0tvd
這也難怪,她退休的時期還沒有紙片這玩意。73Please respect copyright.PENANATyHI39wiYG
73Please respect copyright.PENANAXmfNpVA3lT
「紙片是散落在圖書館的故事殘片。73Please respect copyright.PENANA4Wz2msYbE4
世界各地的傳說都有著眾說紛紜的差異,而這眾多的可能性聚集在一起,就成了故事的影子。73Please respect copyright.PENANASE01Xcn6En
影子也希望自己能成為故事的一部分,為了證明自己的存在而大鬧一番。為此,冒險者會進入書中世界,讓外來者融入混亂不堪的故事裡。73Please respect copyright.PENANAXNYgSO7WIt
73Please respect copyright.PENANAHHd6mxsb72
在北國圖書館體驗故事的過程中,雖然過程可能有所出入,但只要不發生顛覆故事的重大偏差,我們最終會把各種可能性都編纂成書,把不確定性收束下來。73Please respect copyright.PENANAqeri07YlGB
而其中的副產物,就是零碎的故事結晶——也就是紙片。73Please respect copyright.PENANAFbp8NggSxP
熟練地運用紙片,可能讓冒險者獲得驚人的爆發力喔。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAUOijEBMu0M
73Please respect copyright.PENANAwoNnvEQ89f
我朝アルマ解釋道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAs1ICwHO9YF
她似懂非懂地點著頭。對新冒險者來說,紙片系統也沒必要現在就弄懂吧。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJsZQwFWfa4
73Please respect copyright.PENANAorlahWqiDm
「那麼,大家是為了追求力量而收集紙片嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAgY4V13gKLj
「也許吧。可是,成就新的故事本身也是十分寶貴的體驗。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAM6bGCAwKs6
「那為什麼有些紙片會比其他紙片貴那麼多?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAaxZ1xW5y2s
「…………阿高普路斯畢竟是市場經濟主導的城市。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAuyv4DGJH75
73Please respect copyright.PENANAj7gHUIF5a1
我冒著冷汗回答著アルマ的問題。73Please respect copyright.PENANAccXV9Db6p8
幸好她不再追問,不然我真編不下去了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzwLoW07nfV
73Please respect copyright.PENANA1X1lGi8NYu
「我大概懂了。紙片也是心靈力量的一種體現吧?73Please respect copyright.PENANAlGxmZQohZu
能讓我收集一點數據嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZfPC47BFj
面對アルマ期待的眼神,我不禁退了兩步。73Please respect copyright.PENANAgrUCzvU0b2
我對紙片系統也不過是一知半解而已,自從退休後已經用不出來了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAnAxWvKXjn0
73Please respect copyright.PENANAAofMwGRtbh
「這個,不能太麻煩人家啦。73Please respect copyright.PENANAxvUfDb2oV2
這兒畢竟是咖啡館,不是練武室。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAOkR7JgoNr9
RX1看出了我們的窘態,便出頭解圍。73Please respect copyright.PENANA2RZABXzRzP
73Please respect copyright.PENANAubjiDT3ON2
「了解。我明天會再來光顧的。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAU9pBM4pTpY
アルマ隨著RX1退出了咖啡館。73Please respect copyright.PENANA7fgsLHji5P
73Please respect copyright.PENANAhurJpOjHqg
「……吶,我們去圖書館一趟吧?」73Please respect copyright.PENANA4o1iodIuCp
在她們結帳離開後,洛維詩朝我問道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlfL0EJo7FS
73Please respect copyright.PENANAB2Yqhbsze4
「去打紙片嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAYQOdLvyU0P
可是現在要顧店……」73Please respect copyright.PENANAExbFTjpSQD
看她躍躍欲試的樣子,我也用不著問她想去哪了。73Please respect copyright.PENANArLeZuDMac5
73Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3dSkWk09J
「畢竟是客人的請求,你們就去吧。73Please respect copyright.PENANAGYw6jx8TT4
人家明天便要來了,總不能讓人家白花錢吧?73Please respect copyright.PENANA44f0iPtdi6
反正有活動木偶,才不需要靠不住的男人顧店呢。」73Please respect copyright.PENANA65NFQ9wFY3
澤妮亞一邊清理桌子一邊鄙視地說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAorcTWfN2jE
73Please respect copyright.PENANAZfdudcdDXT
既然如此,我也沒有拒絕的理由;便跟洛維詩一起收拾好東西,輕裝出發前往北國。73Please respect copyright.PENANAKQ97ERGeJn

路上,我朝洛維詩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAL0NEcnAMtA
73Please respect copyright.PENANA6p4SrJDmXv
「沒什麼啦,總不能讓人家失望吧?73Please respect copyright.PENANAwhfNdfsNIz
再說,我也對魔法系的紙片很感興趣喔。聽說連魔法師系職業也能得到強大爆發力。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJh3kvxrVAy
現在有你在,總感覺又回到了當年跟同伴們一起冒險變強的時光了呢。」73Please respect copyright.PENANANMhS0K2yyS
洛維詩好像心情很好,牽著我的手便開始哼起歌來。73Please respect copyright.PENANApgtfgKdAcJ
73Please respect copyright.PENANAZuz3UbjMDs
踏過無瑕的冰面,北國海濱長廊已近在眼前。73Please respect copyright.PENANA0fgPWv3a0z
剛穿過大門,一個坐在諾頓咖啡館門外守侯著的孩子便發現了我們,並朝同伴招手。73Please respect copyright.PENANACHXbt1E0uZ
73Please respect copyright.PENANA7L46pIqlvY
「啊,是魔法師姊姊!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAGfkaWhri3v
「這些日子妳到哪兒去了?!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA6DS0dXePkO
「繪本的結局還沒告訴我們呢!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAm7Rg64XmPf
孩子們圍了上來,七嘴八舌地朝洛維詩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAnezvYJH61W
73Please respect copyright.PENANAjsyQDO4czn
「是是。最近在給繪本取材喔。73Please respect copyright.PENANAKBiKf18u3l
來,看看我最近新畫的東西。」73Please respect copyright.PENANASTwU6TgsTE
洛維詩半蹲下來,向孩子們分發著卡片。73Please respect copyright.PENANAVD4hhAPPlo
卡片上畫著各種魔界生物,DEM和機動兵器,都是在攻防戰時抽空畫的。73Please respect copyright.PENANAUdcTIUUTQz
73Please respect copyright.PENANAxMAnFijUTn
孩子們都很喜歡,卡片一下子就分發光了。73Please respect copyright.PENANASWOWfpon8p
洛維詩正想再取,不料手一滑,腰包裡的一張卡片掉在了地上。73Please respect copyright.PENANAKgIHG32Ft3
73Please respect copyright.PENANA2J34pPpMMk
「啊,這個是……73Please respect copyright.PENANAgVdBSSVFew
你,你們不要看!那是失敗作!!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAKMk7Ydtfru
但一個小孩早已搶先拾起了卡片,隨後引發了爭搶。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlxpqUedQQp
定睛一看,那張是我委託她畫給咖啡館作宣傳的店員形象。73Please respect copyright.PENANAOPfMUyOtIq
73Please respect copyright.PENANAf2a4lpeVxI
「哇,是繪本裡的天才魔法師!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA9hTQcxrMq7
「還穿著女僕服呢!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA36qGBZCd4j
「這是我撿到的!!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAqrLvWWGdvy
73Please respect copyright.PENANAUpdgoDXYdp
而且那張畫的正好還是她自己。73Please respect copyright.PENANAxBdNdZrRBb
見孩子們吵成一團,洛維詩也只好放棄,並把多出來的卡片分給孩子讓他們安靜下來。73Please respect copyright.PENANA0zmFlf0tKG
73Please respect copyright.PENANAMCoStO8Edw
「天才魔法師近況如何?她的冒險故事還在繼續嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAQdtV3Qw7ic
面對孩子們的提問,洛維詩清咳一聲,嘴角上揚。73Please respect copyright.PENANABmL7G4FY4H
73Please respect copyright.PENANAY8xTBNphcN
「也是時候跟大家坦白了——繪本裡的天才美少女魔法師,正是本人!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA8UCro09lAw
她輕拍胸脯,自信而驕傲地笑著。73Please respect copyright.PENANA6gW5khJY6v
不過孩子們卻瞇起了眼,似乎毫不訝異。73Please respect copyright.PENANABfiShHl5Od
73Please respect copyright.PENANAjIPJTIqCwa
「那件事,大家早就知道啦。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzz0UcyQmEG
其實,妳給我們讀繪本的時候,說漏嘴好多次了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAIyU2UlxRuc
妳老是用第一人稱說故事,自己沒發覺嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAl6EvTSVVks
73Please respect copyright.PENANAIT81qzcEjw
洛維詩僵在了原地,久久說不出話。73Please respect copyright.PENANAn86euqpOHJ

73Please respect copyright.PENANAGf0kocyo9C
打發了孩子們後,我們便走進了圖書館,登記了想要體驗的書籍。73Please respect copyright.PENANAeYQhE2EAK0
那是因某個海賊團的內部糾紛而起,最終發展為橫越海洋的冒險故事。73Please respect copyright.PENANAH90FUUpNv5
俠義和物欲,深埋在一位船長心中的兩種意志,掀起了席捲海域的風暴。73Please respect copyright.PENANAE5UsuZBmtP
73Please respect copyright.PENANAhzqc8tUjue
「不用太緊張。就跟上次一樣,在圖書館是死不掉的。73Please respect copyright.PENANATgXju1rwh9
只不過,這次可不是悠閒的故事體驗了,而是真刀真槍的硬仗。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAH7g2jCT3X2
我朝正在整裝的洛維詩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA7QbA3A0upL
73Please respect copyright.PENANA7SK7wMVnpf
「……有那麼難嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAdvRAtsJtL6
能先告訴我是什麼情況,讓我有個心理準備嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANATA8y3zQOMz
洛維詩惴惴不安地問道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAvc7mJStycT
73Please respect copyright.PENANAwsyt91cYzu
「這樣說吧,要是在書中世界死亡就真的會沒命的話……我可不會踏進這些繪本一步。73Please respect copyright.PENANAT90rmJhE9Z
要記得,我連對露米奈的作戰計劃都沒有那麼怕過。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAOaTUYWENXH
73Please respect copyright.PENANAQaA8rXeIsJ
書中世界的敵人基本都是熟練冒險者才能應對的水平,更別說層出不窮的突發事件。73Please respect copyright.PENANAyGqPrQB2HY
為了應對書中世界的各種狀況,我以前往往都組成八人團進場。73Please respect copyright.PENANAfVmHeCy7cM
像我們這樣二人組隊進圖書館的不太常見。除了我們之外,今天就只有一對道米尼族男女選擇這樣幹。73Please respect copyright.PENANANN06WTa0vB
73Please respect copyright.PENANAgAAYlKm6E1
「……那真的挺誇張的。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhriTm8pUXA
不過,畢竟不會死對吧?為了不讓客人和孩子們失望,總得付出一點代價。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAxckN5qyswu
洛維詩笑了笑,便跟我一起踏下通往書中世界的樓梯。73Please respect copyright.PENANAZbfIoxW9UH
73Please respect copyright.PENANAHMtqNAB9pN

73Please respect copyright.PENANAXci1OD9BKn
書中世界的第一站是熟悉的夢之島,タイニーアイランド。73Please respect copyright.PENANAI4SIlIf1ri
這兒依然充斥著各種海盜和充氣玩偶,就跟平常沒兩樣。73Please respect copyright.PENANAA6Vd4y0Lu7
73Please respect copyright.PENANAkEvmKSolJQ
「糟糕了!島上的居民正被海盜襲擊!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAsT3ikJvENh
故事的主角之一,キャプテンキッド指著遠方叫道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAHgMvKyYChr
雖然故事早已定型,但每次翻閱都會有微妙的差異。73Please respect copyright.PENANAaM9CnlImzB
73Please respect copyright.PENANAEw3XXVKPZk
「我覺得放著不管也差不多。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAwfPIjpl6NK
雖然我這麼說,キャプテンキッド還是飛步衝了過去。73Please respect copyright.PENANAuQIWW6dGNd
作為世界的收束點,要是主角被打倒了,故事便將無法繼續。73Please respect copyright.PENANAttRL7XVtHK
然而他們永遠都會不顧同伴衝在第一線,從不例外。73Please respect copyright.PENANA8ufEFMpDrz
73Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9KVZjtpiG
「才不是吧!你看,村子都燒起來了耶!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAtJYg3fHOW6
洛維詩也急忙追著她前往村子。73Please respect copyright.PENANA4t8pm5NgHu
我嘆了口氣,跟著她們從海盜手裡解救了村子。73Please respect copyright.PENANAT9Tggq5Glh
73Please respect copyright.PENANAxZTSbub1SG
「雖然我想你說得對……不過,能跟自己的影子玩玩不也不錯嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANA5zlXR8rVAO
這些東西不過是供我們擺佈的佈景而已。重要的是,我們能順著線索找到自己的影子。」73Please respect copyright.PENANALAysfSTm5W
另一位主角,魔女ル・フェイ朝我們笑道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlqFn5b588a
她們是被普遍稱作「ロア」的故事角色。他們並非存在於這個世界的人物,而是如同アルマ一樣,是另一個世界的「故事」擁有生命之後呈現人型的姿態。73Please respect copyright.PENANAu58F1kpfYs
73Please respect copyright.PENANAVofQOI0mE1
某天,ロア現身在世界的中心——阿高普路斯,並迅速跟當地人熟絡了起來。73Please respect copyright.PENANAkP4nxlUHZe
但那只不過是他們的表面而已。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhdQkUVGLi9
就跟大部分人一樣,ロア的心同樣是一體兩面的。但跟人類不同的是,ロア是先有心靈,隨後才具備形體。73Please respect copyright.PENANAFwtXO59iGf
那麼,他們內心的另一面同樣能構築出自己的軀殼。73Please respect copyright.PENANACVLfurmFrK
73Please respect copyright.PENANAESQnCkxi1u
為了得到自己的一席之地,ロア的影子們往往會侵入原本的故事。73Please respect copyright.PENANAK3JeU2BSch
就像這次一樣,キャプテンキッド和ル・フェイ的影子奪走了海賊團的指揮權,並違背海賊團不傷無辜的原則,在海域大肆掠奪。73Please respect copyright.PENANAr39DQMzYjU
73Please respect copyright.PENANAL8GvuQrro0
至於最後是一方消滅另一方,還是雙方都在融合的故事中確立自己的存在,那就看說書人的了。73Please respect copyright.PENANA02aeBqBdI1
目前為止,光與影都取得了各自的容身之處,事件也得以和平落幕。73Please respect copyright.PENANAV1zwhP9RR4
哪怕偶爾因為說書人失手而導致故事中斷,那也不過是重新來過而已。暫時還沒有發生過故事發展到雙方衝突不可調和,導致某一方徹底毀滅的情況。73Please respect copyright.PENANA8N9QV4pTBs
73Please respect copyright.PENANAQrcsRbMWkj
「有時候我也想問……究竟故事裡的妳是本體呢,還是在現實世界的妳才是本體?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAl4yOxGaCP5
雖然故事早已定型,但每次翻閱都會有微妙的差異。73Please respect copyright.PENANACyDLOana9V
就像ル・フェイ有能力回應我一樣,他們也不會只按照劇本行動而顯得一成不變。73Please respect copyright.PENANAwZHaWvrGqA
73Please respect copyright.PENANAqB9yfLBwDc
「呵呵,誰知道呢?73Please respect copyright.PENANAda8k6VX8xb
我只是為了配合故事而現身的魔女而已。不知何處而來,在說書人謝幕後亦不知往何處去。73Please respect copyright.PENANADLZ1fsJ5ye
我們ロア誕生於故事,但故事並非不會改變。現實世界的我,也會創造自己的故事。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlMfBCtuGF0
究竟是我成就了她,還是她成就了我,真的很重要嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAWq77VYqjcg
比起考慮這些,享受每一次故事不是更好嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANA61vkjsv1br
ル・フェイ哼著小曲,輕快地奔赴到下一個場景。73Please respect copyright.PENANAPT32raGiyE
73Please respect copyright.PENANAYbfEbfjEVJ
在擊退了海賊團的侵略之後,ロア的影子——アナザー們便退到了海上。73Please respect copyright.PENANA0pP4OVERhR
我們一行人抓住了吊在船隻邊緣的繩子,爬到了甲板上,與海賊們短兵相接。73Please respect copyright.PENANAnFBQxQRcgl
73Please respect copyright.PENANAt4I8YyyzOd
「糟糕,這地形不太妙……!」73Please respect copyright.PENANApgolfDMqtJ
洛維詩在敵人面前差點一跤摔倒,魔法也失了准頭。73Please respect copyright.PENANATPyF9xJSU3
對縱橫海峽的大海賊而言,在反覆顛簸的船上戰鬥甚至比在陸地上更有利;但對我們而言就不是了。73Please respect copyright.PENANA4sbRTUcvgt
73Please respect copyright.PENANAJYSClJxQeF
「靠著固定物站穩,然後在遠處攻擊!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA7gdGVlfxLI
我一手抓住桅杆,另一手舉著手槍接連開火。73Please respect copyright.PENANAf5SnxLy5ze
當年我完成過這個故事不只一次,身體還記得如何在船上保持平衡。73Please respect copyright.PENANAXQ2AXir24w
73Please respect copyright.PENANAIIIyJGUYdm
「就算你這樣說……!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA9i814Pslwh
另一邊箱,即使全力以赴,洛維詩依然被海浪帶得左搖右擺。73Please respect copyright.PENANAdyGla5gVZF
73Please respect copyright.PENANAa45kR3bYrY
現在保持完整戰鬥力的只有我跟ロア們而已。73Please respect copyright.PENANA1AYUcJJrl0
幸好敵方船員們反撲不算激烈,アナザー也不見縱影。73Please respect copyright.PENANAyohZ2xyPda
只是,這不過是暴風雨前的平靜。73Please respect copyright.PENANA6QzFB6P7UH
73Please respect copyright.PENANAEPUlv1HGZ4
「要來囉。做好準備。」73Please respect copyright.PENANApR5pbIMUxX
在把最後一個敵人踢到水裡後,我朝洛維詩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAk0WzjqYMwu
73Please respect copyright.PENANAXQxW1e8SUh
「咦?你在說什……73Please respect copyright.PENANAtuvqiM7Vcp
這是什麼鬼東西?!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAiUfHOYmcUA
洛維詩看著從海中浮現的生物發出驚叫。73Please respect copyright.PENANAVIpDZhiddG
73Please respect copyright.PENANASz8DRP7cVE
那是一頭纏在船上的巨型烏賊。在我們跟船員糾纏的時候,船隻已經不知不覺地闖入了牠的領海。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhHIlGo5Osv
即使是視人類法則如無物的海賊們,也不能忽視來自大自然的威脅。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhGc6ok7mVF
73Please respect copyright.PENANAMznFYujORI
アナザー依然沒有現身。73Please respect copyright.PENANAGF0wt0lvHF
究竟這是刻意設下的陷阱;還是對我們意志的考驗,已經不得而知。73Please respect copyright.PENANA72Q2iLLNSL
73Please respect copyright.PENANAPCf3ZyBF6i
「該怎麼辦?!73Please respect copyright.PENANAIWbSgYcID9
牠離船隻太遠了!根本打不著牠!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAoCJU9wQMO6
洛維詩接連發動魔法,但對在濃霧中若隱若現的烏賊絲毫沒有效果。73Please respect copyright.PENANAYZcZ0EqTaI
73Please respect copyright.PENANAcecTfiinqK
「木箱裡有砲彈!操作側舷砲台把牠打回海裡去!」73Please respect copyright.PENANACaKUJSDkJT
キャプテンキッド向我們喊道。73Please respect copyright.PENANACl7DVPGpOe
我接連敲開彈藥箱,把一發發彈藥裝進砲台,朝已經伸到甲板的觸手開火。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJXbQlFZg2T
73Please respect copyright.PENANAVW8lniGbPs
「砲彈……?!73Please respect copyright.PENANABVeZUOoWIh
我,我連一般的槍械都沒有操作過啊!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAfup4HXFO6K
洛維詩笨手笨腳地抱起砲彈。73Please respect copyright.PENANAeab7D4smJu
但就在她準備裝填的時候,烏賊在濃霧中急速接近——73Please respect copyright.PENANAAwdWGbHvya
73Please respect copyright.PENANAcAQpbnhYEP
「危險!尋找掩護!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAfEROyV2y0T
「哎……?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAd0XM1qHROZ
即使ル・フェイ提前警告,洛維詩依舊沒有認識到接下來會發生什麼。73Please respect copyright.PENANAjkcAJHnUMC
隨著烏賊撞上船隻,滔天巨浪猶如壓過來的銅牆鐵壁一樣,把甲板上大部分的東西都沖進海裡。73Please respect copyright.PENANAa0fcZ27aiC
73Please respect copyright.PENANAm7td0XkVOs
「呀啊啊啊啊?!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAWbR0O9YAGz
當然,也包括沒有做好準備的洛維詩。73Please respect copyright.PENANA6SicaGJImZ
我急步起跳,雖然勉強抓住了她,但我倆隨即被一根觸手掃落了甲板。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzU1L1XJWwf
73Please respect copyright.PENANACaRJthggHq
「……這次看來不行呢。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAGV3Hx7WLDM

「……看來不太行得通啊。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAVgE6Vy7L0O
洛維詩長嘆了一口氣。73Please respect copyright.PENANAmjOUp4WMOF
73Please respect copyright.PENANA6DrGrJ2lL8
現在已經挑戰了五次,但始終都沒能突破烏賊的阻擋,順利看見アナザー的臉。73Please respect copyright.PENANAi8THSV1zJv
其中有一次甚至因為大意,在見到烏賊前就裁在了異常兇猛的鯊魚口裡。73Please respect copyright.PENANAsXi0BQ2qRQ
幸好這本不是以寫實為賣點的故事,即使受傷了也不怎麼疼。73Please respect copyright.PENANAaq3fcOokjp
73Please respect copyright.PENANAeLA7oDj2f3
「……要不然我們買張紙片帶回去,當是給那小妹妹一個交代算了?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAusvjw72PxE
看著圖書館深不見底的階梯,我不自禁萌生退意。73Please respect copyright.PENANAgCkHviFvpF
73Please respect copyright.PENANAUmWP4U12KG
「不行的時候就該老實說不行。對小孩子說謊可不是好的大人喔。73Please respect copyright.PENANAPtWdFMDI8R
再說,紙片可不便宜。好不容易賺一點錢,可不能都餵了石像。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAfeW5aqf8lD
曾長期跟小孩相處的洛維詩一本正經地說教道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAvxxxAh49Ui
73Please respect copyright.PENANAwgINU877W8
「說是如此,再進去硬拼也不現實啊。73Please respect copyright.PENANAPQo7Dim8NB
但兩手空空回去也太難看了……」73Please respect copyright.PENANAYmmfkS9SMl
我像個在限期前交不出作業的學生一樣囁嚅著。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlM5o2B3DZt
73Please respect copyright.PENANADkWGgTnt5Y
「別擔心,總有辦法的。73Please respect copyright.PENANA0WeYaXCYya
比如說……我們看看附近有沒有人想組隊?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAop8tnOhgfc
洛維詩一邊摸著我的頭,一邊四下張望。73Please respect copyright.PENANARwvylZHKsD
73Please respect copyright.PENANA16WGatnYyc
雖說組隊是冒險者的必修課,但我從來掌握不了這門學問。73Please respect copyright.PENANAFFs4VyoiCX
在我還在猶豫要貼看板還是乾脆在圖書館大聲喊叫時,洛維詩已經找來了兩個同伴。73Please respect copyright.PENANAB98GpWxiI9
73Please respect copyright.PENANADlmmPaqwTC
「你們好。剛才你們在階梯進進出出的時候我就想幫你們一把了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAu0SSHZTTVS
只是她都在說什麼,「不應該在別人求助前就主動干涉」。」73Please respect copyright.PENANA6NvdZu3xaO
長著黑翼的道米尼族男子跟我們握了握手。73Please respect copyright.PENANA00Egmwv9x0
他體型雖不十分健壯,但關節突出,手腕有力,顯然經過了長久磨練。73Please respect copyright.PENANAEXj9k35wto
73Please respect copyright.PENANAJqBrVQ7tbT
「抱歉,他老是這麼大咧咧的。73Please respect copyright.PENANApv6YUDrjE2
我們正好也想探索圖書館,但愁著沒有人能組隊呢。73Please respect copyright.PENANArPWE60JxEk
請多多關照哦,我們當冒險者的時間還很短。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAz92O0h35ml
另一名黑髮少女則是嬌小白皙,但遍佈全身的二足步行機械人接口表示它們已經伴隨她渡過了無數場戰鬥。73Please respect copyright.PENANAUQAMGWb0rC
73Please respect copyright.PENANAW9APEtCqf9
「……很短?73Please respect copyright.PENANAvc8GsymTZG
可是,你們給人的感覺可不像啊。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAteX3IomZdh
洛維詩對著看起來就明顯很強的兩人膛目結舌。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJYusWV4UUz
73Please respect copyright.PENANA8c3lfVl6ps
「妳說話也不怎麼講究嘛。73Please respect copyright.PENANAD2TzMaajc1
「很短」是指在埃米爾界登記成為冒險者的時間。我們是道米尼界的退役軍人。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAJ64DCaFjDf
男子沒好氣地解釋道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA57aJwvDq5A
73Please respect copyright.PENANA2YfVmYumOo
稍微交流之後,發現他們原來是在衝天塔開通之前就在道米尼界浴血奮戰了多年的戰士。73Please respect copyright.PENANAHftF2s5s0D
他們在沒有外援,沒有希望的形勢下撐住了西軍本部不倒,甚至還曾經在城市全境淪陷時達成重奪旗幟的戰果。73Please respect copyright.PENANAwA4gQh75W6
如今對DEM戰況有所緩和,他們這些上一代的戰士終於有機會簽署自願退役了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzqf9QL4071
73Please respect copyright.PENANARiqLf59jCE
在兩名熟練戰士的協助下,本來有點吃力的沙灘戰鬥如今輕鬆了很多。73Please respect copyright.PENANAMz9A6R9Spg
海賊團在道米尼男戰士的槍下落荒而逃;而鯊魚的尖牙也絲毫奈何不了精鋼鍛造的強化外裝。73Please respect copyright.PENANAmoCDnCizT7
73Please respect copyright.PENANAL2kBG9ItLZ
「埃米爾界神奇的東西還真不少。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAASvbcPh5CE
男戰士在手持步槍掃蕩著陸行鯊魚時感慨道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAuRGlZzNC6c
雖然他的主武器是一把自動步槍,但他真正的殺手是平時待在鞘中的名刀。73Please respect copyright.PENANAj7DgXIwPWv
據他所說,他這手拔刀術已經習練了快三十年了;還曾經以此跟上位DEM交手過。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlFKB9cxf2J
73Please respect copyright.PENANAJDO99dMaPe
「也許在DEM 來之前,我們的世界也有著差不多的事物吧。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAD4GIltidmY
女機械師操縱著機械臂,按住了不停掙扎的紅色鯊魚。73Please respect copyright.PENANAWnuO9lx3lb
蓄力已久的前部ラビッジカノン隨即噴發著洶湧的能量射線,把鯊魚的絕大部分身體都碳化成一團煙塵。73Please respect copyright.PENANApQ6IWgUGcr
不愧是在魔界廝殺十年以上的戰士。即使是在書中世界,下手依然毫不容情。73Please respect copyright.PENANAEs76r2KtB1
73Please respect copyright.PENANAxTK2aErBTM
「接下來要小心喔。我們栽在接下來的甲板戰裡很多次了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAZv6EiB4Uu9
船上十分不穩,敵人甚至會捲起巨浪襲擊船隻。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAznTg51SnCZ
洛維詩朝沒有體驗過這故事的兩人說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA8jZi3wVzde
73Please respect copyright.PENANAiF82YziV4I
「……埃米爾界的人居然還在用容易翻的木船啊。明明都體驗過現代機械技術了……73Please respect copyright.PENANAG9NGg4bxq7
不要緊,我有個辦法。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAXpLTlOfq6I
女機械師露出了狡黠的笑容。73Please respect copyright.PENANA6Rl9ylJzvD
73Please respect copyright.PENANAUSnkOoXJOK
「如何?很穩定吧?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAmEme9XWZ65
女機械師自信地展示著她的作品。73Please respect copyright.PENANAnOaFXWrVrs
73Please respect copyright.PENANAlX2dLJqsKG
「……我們有個朋友也像妳一樣……嗯,不拘小節。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAhIrNsy3BnZ
我看著改裝後的二足機械人,不禁說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAD9bUhNDRV9
73Please respect copyright.PENANAwduuNTXNgG
說來也沒什麼,為了應對接下來的接舷戰和巨型烏賊,她用一隻機械臂抓住礁石充當船錨;並直接用雙足踏穿甲板固定船身。73Please respect copyright.PENANAQCCJnvKQON
這下船是穩了,但也不能移動了。為了解決這問題,她把另一隻機械臂像弩砲一樣一把插在敵船上;這下大家便也動彈不得了。73Please respect copyright.PENANANd0sWGKJym
73Please respect copyright.PENANAQC6sbyOxvE
至於本來準備登艦奪船的海賊團們,自然也被主炮和導彈打得七零八落。73Please respect copyright.PENANAbugPZgGHSr
要不是這是童話式的書中世界,海水應該已經血紅一片了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAHA75VXpUHE
73Please respect copyright.PENANAwy3IDypbWA
而我們剩下的人則騰出手操作側舷滑膛炮,瞄著遠方的烏賊招呼。73Please respect copyright.PENANAsQIEWxRdEt
牠多次想要掀起巨浪沖翻船隻,但被機械人固定住的木船始終堅如磐石。73Please respect copyright.PENANAr471feVS9V
至於牠的觸手在道米尼鋼的面前更是連刮痕都沒有留下。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlMbxR0TXSg
73Please respect copyright.PENANAIRkQTiieV8
在單方面的砲擊下,烏賊的輪廓在霧中漸漸模糊,纏繞船隻的觸手也慢慢褪去;最終消失在海面之上。73Please respect copyright.PENANAkc7zyEbXeo
73Please respect copyright.PENANAY431PqLsxB
「嘿嘿,比起守西軍本部的防線可簡單多了。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAgcyhsd8PAW
女機械師自信地笑道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAP8XeKsitXU
73Please respect copyright.PENANA2C7E35z542
「……不過,兩艘船都已經無法航行了啊。73Please respect copyright.PENANAgvwGagEzKM
這樣故事還能繼續嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANA4QWL5Dtc2E
洛維詩擔憂地望向兩位ロア。73Please respect copyright.PENANA6gT88ZkCOf
73Please respect copyright.PENANAfw1y59xm4U
她說得有道理。兩艘船都已經損壞得無法航行了;而我們現在正身處一望無際的遠洋。73Please respect copyright.PENANA2mrRI1Xb2a
難道故事的結局會是大家一起葬身大海?73Please respect copyright.PENANApWFJ4tW3ut
73Please respect copyright.PENANAuyj2EfxNQr
「沒關係喔。這畢竟是源於我們和アナザー內心的故事。73Please respect copyright.PENANATRnjmGERQC
重點是,她們的野心被阻止了。為了利益而聚在一起的海賊團將會因此分崩離析。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAS0UiznOHtE
キャプテンキッド不無擔憂地眺望著敵船。73Please respect copyright.PENANACgfpepuAQK
在那兒,不再能掠奪別人的海賊們爆發了激烈的衝突,即使アナザー們試圖制止也無濟於事。73Please respect copyright.PENANAcUieerOQMv
73Please respect copyright.PENANAnjKocUCHGn
「傳說可以有很多個版本。在故事的結尾處適度留白,有時也是一著妙筆。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAHtbvZp3yqE
ル・フェイ微笑著說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANATbiImWkgrh
73Please respect copyright.PENANAAwRuP4TrLb
她們已經沒有辦法建立屬於自己的傳說了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ8BO2fvQK
但她們決不會只甘於讓「無名海賊團掠劫小島失敗後倉惶逃逸,於茫茫大海中再無音信」作為自己的故事註腳。73Please respect copyright.PENANAedqmxnXMYS
73Please respect copyright.PENANAeUFhLnR8Mo
那麼就只剩下唯一,以及最直接的途徑了——消滅本體,並把她們的傳說據為己有。73Please respect copyright.PENANANzmfo59t5r
在想到這一點的瞬間,書中世界又翻過了一頁。73Please respect copyright.PENANA942mwDHoO9
73Please respect copyright.PENANAoVDXxV52lq
「這……這是什麼?鯨魚岩的浮空平台?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAsmnK8nl2s0
洛維詩站在雲中的空中神殿上說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANANOFmbY1Goa
73Please respect copyright.PENANA8tMmQ5Z9Iq
「跟アナザー決戰的地方。大概是傳說的起源——也就是ロア的內心吧。73Please respect copyright.PENANAcCfbXXfHut
妳這麼一說,跟鯨魚岩倒也有三四分像。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAgYRoNATbDB
我朝洛維詩以及兩位道米尼族解釋道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA4s0QPVmyTC
73Please respect copyright.PENANAj4bSBEbZ37
「不對。還是有不同的。鯨魚岩是被吞噬的世界反芻的投影,而這片空間是潔淨得足以容納新傳說的白紙。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAKxXgCwXCW0
洛維詩盯著不遠處正在對峙的ロア和アナザー說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAb1THbpARgG
73Please respect copyright.PENANAaHUj7PXt1P
「即使沒有了部下也沒關係……!73Please respect copyright.PENANA10xo5XweiA
我的夢想是不會在這裡完結的!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAPEwPyZUnrN
キャプテンキッドアナザー手一揚,身後隨即出現了大量的火繩槍和盾牌,迅速拉平了人數上的劣勢。73Please respect copyright.PENANAvbVpLMKbJt
73Please respect copyright.PENANAJoNoJSwQTH
「從一開始就處於光明的你們是不會懂的吧。73Please respect copyright.PENANAD0oGqnXOT3
不過沒所謂了。以後誰是誰的影子還說不准呢!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA9k51QikipL
ル・フェイアナザー則佈下了青綠色的光幕,籠罩著已方陣營。73Please respect copyright.PENANA700IB3b1Dk
73Please respect copyright.PENANAipVFOI9f2D
「看起來對面嚴陣以待啊。73Please respect copyright.PENANAybGGLaVk0t
那,該怎麼辦?強攻陣地可不是明智的戰術。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAA4sRwkqRZZ
道米尼男子看著光幕下排成正方形的槍盾說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANA7rbUj0HKGm
雖然沒有士兵存在,但這陣勢無疑就是古典時代的步兵方陣。73Please respect copyright.PENANAUexFsShAU3
73Please respect copyright.PENANAqs2Xh3kpbp
「沒錯,強攻アヴァロン是愚者之舉。73Please respect copyright.PENANAviORIAMJ1y
我來想個辦法中和這個神聖結界。在此之前,請多少撐著點。73Please respect copyright.PENANAqg0uZPzm8C
要小心,我感覺到她們還保留了強大的後著。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAd3IQpuKS3T
ル・フェイ向我們說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANABtkqTUxfdI
不知道是不是錯覺,隨著她的詠唱,ロア的形體似乎漸漸黯淡起來。73Please respect copyright.PENANALjrOfIDhBN
73Please respect copyright.PENANAsSCbxZzuSj
「來了!ディバインバリア!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAKUGb9ziC8A
洛維詩反應敏捷,在火槍縱隊第一次齊射前先張開了神聖光界。73Please respect copyright.PENANA918H0WjBPf
73Please respect copyright.PENANAEpLWRtSLyA
73Please respect copyright.PENANAxzD8VHLE7E
我雖然參與過這個故事的探索,但在決戰中只負責憑依並支援同伴,沒有與アナザー實際交手過。73Please respect copyright.PENANAcBfmdeMLPl
當年那些老練冒險者往往是發動紙片三兩下就掃除了槍盾陣線,因此,我沒想到原來這些召喚物會那麼難纏。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhh7TIHLPj6
73Please respect copyright.PENANAKpFymG1LJE
戰況陷入膠著,ル・フェイ的光暗兩面都在加緊念咒。73Please respect copyright.PENANAHXGSC7nvJi
即使是強化外裝的炮擊也不能突破盾牌的防禦,而盾牌掩護下的火槍齊射也令人難以靠近。73Please respect copyright.PENANAveTqut6qV6
更糟糕的是,就如ル・フェイ所說,アナザー們在結界內按兵不動,似乎正在籌劃著什麼;這些召喚物不過是拖延時間的棋子而已。73Please respect copyright.PENANAAO5u1UGWhP
73Please respect copyright.PENANA8GRTpB1fRl
「別以為這樣就完了!夢想船!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAiTCtxzljFY
キャプテンキッドアナザー遊刃有餘地喊道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAsTWzYUoylb
一艘微縮版的浮空海盜船在結界的側翼殺出,朝ル・フェイ接連開砲。73Please respect copyright.PENANAtDMbo409LV
她不得不側身躲避砲擊,但海盜船已經把撞角對准了她,全速衝撞。73Please respect copyright.PENANA71v20dcsz8
73Please respect copyright.PENANAMzpAd2Ym8i
「休想得逞!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAuGUdKnMDTS
道米尼女機械師及時堵住了海盜船的路線,以強化外裝硬是吃下了衝擊。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJTa48LwGCS
二足機械人只抖了一抖,隨即張開雙臂抱住了海盜船,準備發射主炮。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzQAXXMVLiP
73Please respect copyright.PENANAfIIdxItiKo
「是這邊快了一步呢。モルガナハーツ!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAd7J6x3qT3h
在發炮的前一刻,ル・フェイアナザー發動了準備已久的魔法。73Please respect copyright.PENANAFmIJleFuBM
一道白光籠罩住了海盜船。同時,二足機械的炮口也冒出了火光——73Please respect copyright.PENANAAifQj8kOoR
73Please respect copyright.PENANAqX4PanCr98
「呀啊啊啊啊?!」73Please respect copyright.PENANANMnq2KwS3D
——在震耳欲聾的響聲中,數道落雷劈中了二足機械。73Please respect copyright.PENANA142qVLQxAq
73Please respect copyright.PENANAGIntlO27ha
「這是……新生魔法?!73Please respect copyright.PENANAS0SPoaxAho
居然會有這麼大的威力……」73Please respect copyright.PENANAvhKC5Rwq6A
對新生魔法火力深有體會的洛維詩難掩驚訝之情。73Please respect copyright.PENANAdYWtiMyChU
73Please respect copyright.PENANAJWghmYDzUn
「這就是她們的底牌嗎……!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAyWHK4KXEN1
我咬牙說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAZIMNQVmfkA
被魔法賦予了自律反擊體系的海盜船正橫衝直撞。73Please respect copyright.PENANARjfBb7iO5r
那張牙舞爪,無拘無束的樣子,正如キャプテンキッドアナザー海賊夢的體現。73Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6I33rLwIH
73Please respect copyright.PENANAt86fRAWNvY
「雖然也不是沒有想過像這樣大鬧一通……73Please respect copyright.PENANAhGzlHu7YaJ
可是,傷害無辜的人是不行的!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAUB0OmaqqOY
キャプテンキッド朝結界裡的アナザー喊話。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhdHdIyvgfi
73Please respect copyright.PENANAJqujrDDb8x
「有什麼不行?!難道有人能阻止嗎?!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA8BCu8cX7V8
キャプテンキッドアナザー不甘示弱地回道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAVlBoPS6yr9
正如她所說,本身已經具有強大戰力,而且被碰到就會觸發猛烈雷擊的海盜船根本無從入手。73Please respect copyright.PENANAD6TDaYRPJ0
73Please respect copyright.PENANAEyhkWtnz4x
「嘿,借一步說話。73Please respect copyright.PENANAODuor5vQm9
你說,要是結界和盾牌都突然消失的話……你們有沒有辦法在海盜船打敗我們之前一舉打倒兩位アナザー?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAhhiDuAdZXU
道米尼戰士忽然對我和洛維詩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAOLp58Q4MpC
73Please respect copyright.PENANADhNbWlD6XL
「這……盡力而為吧?73Please respect copyright.PENANAjBjyX9qUeg
不過首先,怎麼才能讓它們消失啊?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAJbh6zYVDww
洛維詩百忙中抽空問道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAykQlTiMn9z
73Please respect copyright.PENANATD9xy1p8cf
「我看那位女士剛才躲閃的時候嘴巴一刻都沒停止念咒,不過アナザー似乎一直沒注意到。我看她也快要準備好了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAgkkEWUlzA2
要是結界解除,那些盾牌對我而言也就是一刀的事。73Please respect copyright.PENANABUoEPUQokj
至於海盜船嘛——」73Please respect copyright.PENANAXWhmfUumQS
道米尼戰士的目光轉到了被雷電擊中後渾身冒煙的二足機械之上。73Please respect copyright.PENANAWw38aCOm7X
73Please respect copyright.PENANACPCk6lwjKg
「——可別小看道米尼精煉鋼啊!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA9w6eVOm4EY
隨著道米尼女機械師的喊叫,重新啟動的二足機械從後緊緊抓住了海盜船。73Please respect copyright.PENANAAsxlCdXmqf
73Please respect copyright.PENANACCFS7KiwCp
原本黯淡漆黑的強化外裝上如今燃起了一層亮綠色的火焰。73Please respect copyright.PENANAyhtp9DJfdo
這是讓二足機械的內部處理器全速運轉,讓參數在短時間內大幅提升的過熱狀態。73Please respect copyright.PENANAFJH3lg30DZ
73Please respect copyright.PENANAiwaeYOtuA3
女機械師僅僅是壓住了海盜船,並沒有發動進一步攻擊;因此也沒有誘發雷擊。73Please respect copyright.PENANA9LfmPUjce6
海盜船本身依然有反擊能力,但不論是撞角還是側舷砲都對強化外裝毫無效果。73Please respect copyright.PENANAIPG5PPy10t
也就是說,在過熱狀態的數分鐘內,アナザー的王牌都會被她束縛著——73Please respect copyright.PENANAJZtO9MYbqB
73Please respect copyright.PENANAElt1DpmgFp
「アナザーアヴァロン!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAI0Ja9gL5ze
——同時,ル・フェイ準備已久的魔法也發動了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAZfiONcynUV
影子在我們的腳下澎漲,形成了與アナザー神聖結界相對的領域。73Please respect copyright.PENANAkNd5QmtIyp
在兩個領域的中間,是沒有法則的一片真空。73Please respect copyright.PENANAxSwrSyWvWB
73Please respect copyright.PENANAW32bSxv7ET
「記得我剛才說過什麼吧?上了!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAnKhacuAPxv
道米尼戰士拋下步槍,空手朝槍盾陣線快速靠近。73Please respect copyright.PENANA52UV5p7vUD
就在一整排火槍即將開火的瞬間,男子伸手握住了腰間的刀柄。73Please respect copyright.PENANApRKw4P35Vs
73Please respect copyright.PENANAacKlm2yELi
刀光之下,火槍甚至盾牌都被劈做兩段。73Please respect copyright.PENANAsm1KSs23lH
男子絲毫沒有收刀的意思,刀鋒所到之處,周遭未被第一刀劈落的槍盾通通難逃一劫。73Please respect copyright.PENANAY54EtGZSS7
甚至連身在結界核心的アナザー都為了躲避劍氣而各自躍開——73Please respect copyright.PENANAjh7Xk3fmjS
73Please respect copyright.PENANAcmS5oXH4kz
「妳知道該怎麼辦!去吧!」73Please respect copyright.PENANAWn2Urrvp2o
我朝洛維詩喊道,同時擺出了剎那的起手式。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJdvgjkud1W
洛維詩心領神會地高舉畫筆,並以高速詠唱咒文。73Please respect copyright.PENANAw4fHbgYph2
73Please respect copyright.PENANA6yp9z218RG
キャプテンキッドアナザー正在召喚槍盾以填補防線缺失,而ル・フェイアナザー也在重新確立結界。73Please respect copyright.PENANAWKNhFDl1BD
她們對遠在己方陣地的我們毫無防備。73Please respect copyright.PENANAYGUEd8dr1A
的確,這個距離不論是我的短刀還是她的魔法都無法命中。不過這邊可是有著多姿多采的新生魔法——73Please respect copyright.PENANA8diPrHDhLM
73Please respect copyright.PENANAkCcLnW79KF
「テレポート——」73Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2DfcQPtn2
隨著瞬移魔法發動,眼前的影像轉瞬被替換成了另一副光景。73Please respect copyright.PENANAYoQDnlizOr
雖然大腦因為視訊的不連貫稍有混亂,但眼睛已經捕足到了ル・フェイアナザー的後背。73Please respect copyright.PENANAdSJexVDWmc
同時,洛維詩畫筆上的光球也已經在キャプテンキッドアナザー身後成形。73Please respect copyright.PENANAxI5V9o6de9
73Please respect copyright.PENANA907tK3eNoS
「フォトンランチャー!」73Please respect copyright.PENANA5R6nkqRi9B
「剎那!」73Please respect copyright.PENANABCZHbVa7oe
就在アナザー們回頭的一刻,我們發動了各自的絕技。73Please respect copyright.PENANAmH1gXpw4qU

73Please respect copyright.PENANARaXUDiqzpe
「……這樣,就算是和解了嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAS0ml6evnrv
感覺只不過是被打了一頓之後屈服了不是嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAtaEFn39yct
洛維詩看著正在キャプテンキッド面前挨訓的アナザー們說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAly1S3bvR2w
73Please respect copyright.PENANApFXuClVb0w
「反正大部分アナザー的主要目的也只是從本體獨立,擁有自己的故事而已。73Please respect copyright.PENANAIY3J4h3vEp
而僅屬於她們的故事——就在我們手上呢。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAC0bod5nzyc
我翻閱著手中的紙片。73Please respect copyright.PENANAbXY5sx7qee
作為放棄干涉本體的補償,アナザー們決定以冒險者的同伴身份寫下自己的故事。73Please respect copyright.PENANA7vOjpM5Jxf
冒險者在他們幫助下能爆發出驚人的實力,而他們因此立下的豐功偉績也讓アナザー的傳說流傳更廣。73Please respect copyright.PENANAmNkIb4zcaU
而アナザー能給予的力量又跟他們的傳說緊密關連。這種相輔相成的關係導致他們的力量螺旋式上升,甚至超越了本體。73Please respect copyright.PENANAlUEXAbNr7W
73Please respect copyright.PENANAyYo1gMAZPR
「那,我們就回去啦。73Please respect copyright.PENANAH3AkXV8aGy
以後有空多來道米尼界……雖然也沒有什麼好觀光的就是了。」73Please respect copyright.PENANATm84201Fkn
道米尼戰士們笑著向我們說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANADtyfxI0fuZ
他們沒有取走紙片,只是拿了點書中世界的紀念品留念。73Please respect copyright.PENANALwHX1XibpO
那是海盜船上取下的海賊團旗幟。對從小只能看見漆黑凄冷的海洋的魔界人來說,蔚藍清淨的海面是他們一生的憧憬。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzfarXK5Qjs
73Please respect copyright.PENANAZOaqFOEUOm
「謝謝兩位的幫忙!73Please respect copyright.PENANACIiBeWmxKw

洛維詩中氣十足地回道。73Please respect copyright.PENANABOPkE03fJz
道米尼男女瀟灑地揮了揮手,勾肩搭背離開了圖書館。73Please respect copyright.PENANAaVGbBx3GDP
73Please respect copyright.PENANAxLfl68YeCX
「……真好啊。73Please respect copyright.PENANAylhw3b5l75
他們少說都認識了十多年了吧?可真是深厚的情誼啊。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAGgxIk8pZOV
洛維詩嘟嚷著,好像有點羨慕的樣子。73Please respect copyright.PENANAuAuikfsymc
73Please respect copyright.PENANAe24ry7HrjE
「沒錯。妳也注意到了?他們的戰鬥默契十分完善。73Please respect copyright.PENANAQi5Ha5zkV6
雖然剛才的戰鬥沒有用上;但強化外裝用以庇護戰友的左側有大量灼燒痕跡。結合男子切入戰場時刻意壓低的姿態來看,他們在戰場上的配合相當明確。看來,他們曾經無數次正面擊破携帶火焰發射器的裝甲DEM……」73Please respect copyright.PENANAo7Slm7ff41
我一邊說,洛維詩就一邊翻著白眼。也不知道為什麼。73Please respect copyright.PENANA0u7xoWADSv
73Please respect copyright.PENANAE55DJ8wjZ9
「……算了算了。難怪澤妮亞時常對你生氣。73Please respect copyright.PENANAJgKvQztqtP
我們走吧。別讓客人乾等。」73Please respect copyright.PENANACVLBRGd6tP
洛維詩氣鼓鼓地走了,我只得隨後跟著。73Please respect copyright.PENANALur28SOP83
難道是我猜錯了他們的戰術?73Please respect copyright.PENANAUufU0iAbhT
73Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y8zs3YsHz
* * *73Please respect copyright.PENANAuxlinSJ9ka
73Please respect copyright.PENANATvVPKTUPx4
回到下城的時侯,天色經已全黑,咖啡館也已經打烊。73Please respect copyright.PENANAEWIkM2Xvl6
不過店面的燈火還亮著,而且還出現了我意料之外的人。73Please respect copyright.PENANAXB8grbuleQ
73Please respect copyright.PENANAoNQ7ipitEK
「露米奈怎麼也來了?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAZWwu9eipIO
我向著跟少女アルマ玩得不亦樂乎的露米奈說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAQMnXa5nivW
73Please respect copyright.PENANAAMu0bwXmqo
「我聽說上城又出現了新種アルマ嘛。而且還是機械類!73Please respect copyright.PENANAmMXnPzQmXr
反正她剛剛變成人型,也沒地方好去;我就讓她留在果園裡了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhUp4FfkRnY
不過好奇怪啊。アルマ一般都有個原型對吧?但我怎麼都不記得看過這樣的原型……」73Please respect copyright.PENANAPtiAig5NzN
不,與其說露米奈是跟她玩,不如說是在單玩面玩她。73Please respect copyright.PENANAETfc27kwv6
不過アルマ也沒什麼不滿,只是在幹自己的事。73Please respect copyright.PENANA9WuGfmfdRX
73Please respect copyright.PENANAO2ZcBd5raY
「三界的魔物那麼多,妳也不是每一種都見過吧。73Please respect copyright.PENANAEtVuPGUeIL
再說,アルマ的原型本來也就是僅供參考。妳第一眼看見タランチュラ和ココッコー時知道她們的本體長什麼樣子嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANArv8TtY5qaQ
73Please respect copyright.PENANAfAtRJ2Uj0C
露米奈似乎接受了我的意見,回頭繼續逗アルマ去了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAC3v8G38nPw
73Please respect copyright.PENANA9RSNSHxAtb
「……千萬不要跟露米奈說道米尼機械師是怎樣錨定船隻的。連提都不要提起。73Please respect copyright.PENANAXxaCVcNZ7L
如果妳不想以後飛空城也會用這種方式停泊的話。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAhGosL4QzvQ
我偷偷對洛維詩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAx25Xjud9k9
73Please respect copyright.PENANAGGBreXSnnn
「……不要說那麼可怕的事。我冷汗都出來了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAeFNh3qrF3E
咳咳。紙片我們帶回來了。妳要看看嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAA8yFxllxQD
洛維詩像是向小孩翻開繪本一樣,掏出了辛苦收集的紙片。73Please respect copyright.PENANAzYGsgjixKP
73Please respect copyright.PENANASIH7IqBiDB
「原來如此。這就是心靈的力量嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAGtUGqFbP3N
難怪眾多冒險者趨之若鶩。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAlmWhg8NdTA
少女アルマ合上紙片簿,若有所思。73Please respect copyright.PENANAXcy3DeaN9A
73Please respect copyright.PENANAos9ADEp8xt
「那,妳有興趣成為冒險者嗎?73Please respect copyright.PENANAzymXIj9EgM
冒險生活很有趣喔。據那邊那個花心蘿蔔說,還能邂逅眾多可愛的女孩子。」73Please respect copyright.PENANA1yAm2IDQZS
澤妮亞不懷好意地指著我說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAAfOBqaFRMn
我什麼時候這樣說過了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAk70s0YQR29
73Please respect copyright.PENANAbdrKMZg0yP
「很遺憾,我看不出有這個必要。73Please respect copyright.PENANAoeHLpQMxY5
我的機械身體不需要營養補給,而下城區的供電設施就足夠我的生活所需了。73Please respect copyright.PENANA0YoWmOCyOr
這樣一來,為了報酬而執行冒險活動並無必要。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAUEneBFXgRB
少女アルマ不帶情感地回道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAhQTCkvXUHY
真罕見,居然有不想去冒險的アルマ。73Please respect copyright.PENANACupDp8zo95
另外,在下城區偷電是違法的。73Please respect copyright.PENANAiywfsf2EA2
73Please respect copyright.PENANA6NuWsTFplw
「哎,冒險活動也不是只為了報酬嘛。73Please respect copyright.PENANAR8taamGPj7
就像這次找紙片,即使沒有回報,我們也渡過了很愉快的時光啊。73Please respect copyright.PENANATdtzI0meuQ
73Please respect copyright.PENANApXyjUu1yNk
我想想……妳有什麼地方曾經嚮往,卻又一直沒有去過嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANANxsVq1s5zl
洛維詩耐心地引導著她。73Please respect copyright.PENANALGpguVGZ2d
73Please respect copyright.PENANABXxnyC5pLQ
「……マイマイ島。」73Please respect copyright.PENANA0t80KPdqUK
在短時間的沉默後,少女アルマ緩緩說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAmr74d68cyg
73Please respect copyright.PENANAqjFxAyrK6r
マイマイ島坐落於埃米爾界東南部,本是個寧靜的小島;但在某個DEM空中要塞墜落後就變成了熱門的冒險者聖地。73Please respect copyright.PENANAbq7IBZqGi0
在埃米爾界開拓期,該島DEM遺跡內部的先進武器庫曾是各界冒險者的寶藏;即使到了現在,マイマイ遺跡也是新晉冒險者的畢業試驗場。73Please respect copyright.PENANAl8RumCqBOA
73Please respect copyright.PENANAehYhSMkEWs
「哦,挺好的起點嘛!73Please respect copyright.PENANA4wvymTZzDl
那,妳是因為什麼而想到哪兒去呢?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAlY1A6KNqWR
洛維詩笑著問道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAGSzTcilfsy
73Please respect copyright.PENANAtNOoP1MR0n
「我在那邊偵測到強大的信號反應。73Please respect copyright.PENANAYc2AaJ07F8
好像有數量龐大的DEM族在那邊活動的樣子。我想去看看。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAsRnevJI6DF
她的機械身體似乎對信號很敏感的樣子。73Please respect copyright.PENANAr9PSM8siIL
73Please respect copyright.PENANAeKljlnw1SH
「喔,マイマイ遺跡確實有大量的DEM殘餘部隊仍在活動。73Please respect copyright.PENANAe2ynBdUYrQ
不過那都是非常早期的DEM型號了,比道米尼界的舊型號更古老。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAvJhCy8lXWz
熟悉DEM的露米奈說道。73Please respect copyright.PENANAQM6IGxoMo7
73Please respect copyright.PENANAB5iJYUvwMA
「不,我不是說遺跡內部;而是遺跡外部。73Please respect copyright.PENANAeHi4K8Dyfj
我接收到的信號說,那邊很需要擁有心靈的DEM族去搬運補給物資。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAKo64KthD90
73Please respect copyright.PENANAlLA4WhcMSP
此言一出,在場有冒險經驗的人臉色都尷尬了起來,只有澤妮亞和少女アルマ不明所以。73Please respect copyright.PENANAc1vwQjNGoe
所謂的「補給物資運搬」其實是只發佈給DEM族冒險者的任務,但內容僅僅是把貨從マイマイ島一側搬到另一側而已。73Please respect copyright.PENANA945Q0Mq3Hy
因為報酬不菲,有大量DEM族參與;甚至有操控著大量DEM冒險者的惡性行業存在。也因此,這件事在冒險者之間名聲不佳。73Please respect copyright.PENANACuQxoF1p32
73Please respect copyright.PENANA7128pRgZvo
「怎麼都僵住了?有什麼不方便說的嗎?」73Please respect copyright.PENANAnySoiI1LBo
澤妮亞意識到了氣氛不對。73Please respect copyright.PENANA8ctdn2CHmd
73Please respect copyright.PENANA6Sc39IDU9P
「……不,沒事。改天帶妳們去看看就知道了。73Please respect copyright.PENANAyuQYYOxM88
比起這個,還不知道妳叫什麼名字呢。73Please respect copyright.PENANAl0R7GIq4Ny
一般來說,我們都會用原種族來稱呼アルマ。但既然妳也不知道自己的原型……」73Please respect copyright.PENANARFCf8xCLcs
73Please respect copyright.PENANAElt8jQytrB
露米奈以讓人感覺不妙的語氣說道:73Please respect copyright.PENANA2t4KrZCZEA
73Please respect copyright.PENANAfDcRynPuEB
「……那就由我來取名好了。」73Please respect copyright.PENANAZIMmBwEhoj
