警报声从四面响起,红光照亮了整个动力井.The alarm blared from all directions,red light flooding the entire power well.
地面震动,数十台防卫机体从井壁中爬出.金属的脚步声,像沉重的雨打在钢上.The ground shook as dozens of sentinels crawled from the walls,their steps a rain of steel on steel.
"准备防御!"凯恩怒吼."Form up!" Kane barked.
凌焰点燃火焰,那火光在一瞬间吞没了整个视野.Ling Yan summoned his fire—and in an instant, it filled the world.
但——那火不再听他的命令.But—the fire no longer obeyed him.
它在颤抖,扩张,仿佛被无形的手在操纵.It quivered, expanding—as if guided by an invisible hand.
苏黎立刻感应到那股不对劲的频率.Su Li sensed the wrongness immediately.
"系统...在干扰他!""The system's inside his signal!"
凌焰的瞳孔中闪烁出代码般的微光.Ling Yan's pupils flickered with code-like light.

苏黎冲上前,没有犹豫.Su Li ran to him—no hesitation.
她抬起手,将冰能注入他的手臂.She lifted her hand, channeling frost into his arm.
那火焰立刻反抗,暴烈,混乱,几乎要把她整个卷进去.The flame resisted, wild and violent—almost swallowing her whole.
她咬住唇,声音低下来,像是在和他,又像是在和那团火说话.She bit her lip, voice low—as if speaking to him, and the fire both.
"听我——凌焰,听我的声音.""Listen to me, Ling Yan—listen to my voice."
"呼吸.""Breathe."
"它不是敌人——它是你.""The flame isn't your enemy—it's you."
她的冰顺着火焰蔓延,像一只手抚平狂乱的心跳.Her frost spread through the fire,like a hand soothing a frantic heartbeat.
她没有压制那火,而是拥抱它,让它学会呼吸.She didn't suppress the flame—she held it, teaching it to breathe.
那一刻,火焰在她掌中颤抖,不再是暴走的力量,而是她指尖下的脉搏.For a moment, the fire trembled in her palm—no longer wild power, but the pulse beneath her touch.
"很好..."她低声说."这样就好.""Good…" she whispered."Just like that."
凌焰的呼吸终于平稳,眼底的光一点点从赤红退去.Ling Yan's breathing steadied,the red glow fading from his eyes.
空气温度回落,那火静静燃烧在他掌中,像一颗心重新跳动.The air cooled.The flame burned quietly in his palm—like a heart, beating again.
苏黎抬起头,汗从她的额角滑下,但她没有放手.Su Li lifted her head,sweat dripping down her temple—but she didn't let go.
她轻声道:She said softly—
"记住,这火不是系统给你的.""Remember—this fire isn't from the system."
"它来自你自己.""It's yours."
凌焰抬头望着她,眼中第一次有了安静的光.Ling Yan looked up at her,and for the first time, his eyes were calm.
"我知道."他轻声答."I know," he said quietly.
凯恩的雷光在侧翼闪动,尤娜与莱恩压制火线,艾琳娜展开治疗场.Kane's lightning flared at the flank,Yuna and Ryan held the line,and Elena's healing field shimmered green.
外部通讯里,夜尘的支援声震动在耳边.Over comms, Nightdust's reinforcements rumbled through static.
——「焰队,外围防线稳住了!你们的路我们掩护!」—"Team Flame, outer perimeter's holding! We've got your path covered!"
——「剩下的,全靠你们!」—"The rest is on you!"
凌焰收起掌中火焰,火光反射在他铠甲的边缘.Ling Yan drew the flame back into his hand,its glow reflecting off the edge of his armor.
他看向苏黎,微微一笑.He looked at Su Li—and smiled faintly.
"走吧.""Let's move."
