The Saurian technology story:
关于蜥蜴科技的故事:
The Saurians’ rumors had been right: a god-like creature was roaming their lands!
蜥蜴人的传言千真万确:一个神一样的生物在他们的土地上游荡!
Saurian King Xyzzy looked at the being that was standing in front of him. He could tell it was badly wounded as blood dripped from its side and its movements were obviously painful. It was clear it needed help and that was the reason it had approached their village.
蜥蜴王西兹看着站在他面前的那个生物。他能看出它受了重伤,鲜血从它的身侧滴落下来,一举一动都显得极为痛苦。很明显它需要帮助,这就是它接近他们领地的原因。
Anyone would have thought the creature was easy prey, but Xyzzy had heard that even in its weakened state, it could obliterate any enemy with a blast of light in seconds.
一般人都会认为这种生物很容易被捕获,但西兹听说,即使在它虚弱时,它也能用强光在一瞬间消灭任何敌人。
As the blast surged from a shiny device the creature was holding on its hand, Xyzzy knew this was not magic. The Saurian had never seen any weapon of its kind before. However, he immediately thought that if his people possessed such power, they would become a force to be reckoned with.
它手持着一个闪闪发亮的装置,爆炸从中喷射而出,但西兹知道这并不是魔法。蜥蜴人以前从未见过这种武器,但西兹立即想到,如果他的族人拥有如此力量,他们将所向披靡。
Xyzzy slowly approached the being and signaled one of the tents where bandages and medicinal herbs were offered to it.
西兹慢慢地走近它,指着一个帐篷对它示意。那帐篷里放的,是治疗用的绷带和药草。
With this gesture, a bond was created, one that would change the Saurian’s way of life forever. The being decided to stay, and as a show of gratitude taught the Saurians how to create and operate its homeland technology.
通过这种形式,一种将永远改变蜥蜴人生活方式的纽带被建立起来了。那个生物决定留下来,为了表示感谢,它教会了蜥蜴人如何制造并使用它自己的本土技术。
