灰域的心脏在跳动.The heart of the Gray Zone pulsed in the dark.
五层金属结构在震颤,空气中弥漫着焦灼的气味.The five-layered metal complex trembled, the air thick with the scent of burning steel.
凯恩,凌焰,苏黎,艾琳娜,尤娜,莱恩.焰队六人穿过废墟,来到那片闪烁蓝光的深处.Kane, Ling Yan, Su Li, Elena, Yuna, and Ryan—Team Flame pushed through the ruins to reach the glowing blue depths.
"能量密度太高."苏黎低声."The energy field's dense," Su Li murmured.
她抬头,看见那道银白的门在脉动.She looked up—the silver door ahead throbbed like a pulse.
"那就是零点核心.""That's the Zero Point core."
凌焰的火光映在她的脸上,声音低稳.Ling Yan's fire flickered across her face, his voice steady.
"那我们进去,把它烧成灰.""Then we go in—and turn it to ash."
门缓缓开启,光如水流涌出.The door opened slowly, light pouring like water.
赛拉斯站在中央,背后连着无数神经导体.Sylas stood at the center, neural conduits stretching from his back.
他像一座被光束支撑的雕像.He looked like a statue, sustained by beams of light.
在他身后,漂浮着一抹淡淡的身影——玛莉安.Behind him hovered a faint silhouette—Marian.
她一动不动,像被封存在梦里的记忆.She didn't move, as if trapped in the dream of another life.
凯恩的脚步声在空旷中回荡.Kane's footsteps echoed through the chamber.
"老师.""Teacher."
赛拉斯转身,目光平静.Sylas turned, calm-eyed.
"你终于来了.""You finally came."
"我不是来找你的."凯恩的声音冷冷的."I didn't come for you," Kane said quietly.
"我是来结束.""I came to end this."
他抬起手,雷光在掌心聚起.He raised his hand, lightning gathering in his palm.
电流在空气中炸裂.Lightning cracked through the air.
凯恩的雷霆冲破地面,金属震鸣.Kane's thunder burst through the floor, metal howling under pressure.
赛拉斯抬手,光幕升起,挡住了第一击.Sylas lifted his arm, a wall of light rising to meet it.
两种能量相撞,火星漫天.The two forces collided, scattering fire like a storm.
凯恩冲上前,雷弧如龙.Kane lunged forward, arcs of thunder roaring like dragons.
赛拉斯反手一挥,光刃劈开空气.Sylas swung back, his blade of light cutting through the air.
撞击的一瞬,爆炸撕裂了寂静.At the moment of impact, the silence shattered.
尘浪翻卷,能量流击碎了墙壁.Dust and energy tore through the chamber walls.
"你变强了."赛拉斯半跪着,血从唇边滑下."You've grown stronger," Sylas said, kneeling, blood sliding from his lip.
"连我都算错.""Even I miscalculated."
凯恩冷冷地看着他.Kane looked down at him coldly.
"你早就不该掌控我.""You should never have tried to control me."
雷光再度爆发.Lightning flared again.
"我不是造物.""I'm not your creation."
"我是人.""I'm human."
电弧贯穿大厅,天花板的金属层被撕开,露出深蓝的天空.Arcs of lightning tore through the ceiling, exposing the blue-black sky above.
赛拉斯被震退数步,却微微笑了.Sylas stumbled back—and smiled faintly.
"输了?不.""Lost? No."
"你终于赢了.""You finally won."
他抬起头,看向那道光影.He looked up, toward the woman in light.
"玛莉安.""Marian."
他的声音第一次颤抖.His voice trembled for the first time.
"我花了一生去研究灵魂和意识.我以为可以保存爱,重建生命.""I spent my life studying souls, consciousness—I thought I could preserve love, rebuild life."
"可我错了.我只是造了牢笼.""But I was wrong.All I built was a cage."
他伸出手,手指微微发抖.He reached out, fingers trembling.
"我怕失去你,所以我把你关进系统,告诉自己那是保护.但我毁了你.""I was afraid of losing you,so I locked you inside the system and called it protection.But I destroyed you instead."
他苦笑.He gave a broken smile.
"我爱你.不爱那个被数据复制的影子,而是那个敢反对我的你,那个让我害怕失去的你.""I love you.Not the replica in code—but the you who defied me,who made me afraid to lose you."
"我以为那是弱点,现在才知道,那是我最后的人性.""I thought that fear was weakness.Now I know—it was my last piece of humanity."
泪水从他眼中滑落,被光吞没.Tears fell from his eyes, swallowed by the light.
"原谅我.我太爱你,才亲手毁了你.""Forgive me.I loved you too deeply… and that's how I destroyed you."
光影动了.The light stirred.
"你没毁掉我."玛莉安轻声."You didn't destroy me," Marian whispered.
"你只是太害怕失去.现在,你可以放手了.""You were just too afraid to lose.Now, you can let go."
她伸手触碰他.She reached out and touched him.
"谢谢你,还记得爱.""Thank you… for still remembering love."
基地开始震动.The base trembled.
冰冷的机械声响起.A cold, mechanical voice filled the chamber.
"核心体偏离控制.执行净化.""Core subject deviating. Commencing purification."
执政官的影像出现在空中.The Chancellor's image appeared overhead.
"系统必须纯净.删除异常.""The system must remain pure. Delete anomalies."
赛拉斯看着那道虚影,笑得极轻.Sylas looked up at the projection and smiled faintly.
"纯净?那只是死的世界.""Purity? That's just a dead world."
他看向凯恩,眼神宁静.He turned to Kane, eyes calm.
"结束它——用你的人性.""End it—with your humanity."
凯恩闭上眼,雷电汇聚成白焰.Kane closed his eyes;lightning condensed into white fire.
"神启雷息——终极式!""Arc Pulse Overload—Final Form!"
雷霆冲天而起,光焰贯穿整座基地.Thunder roared skyward,fire and light bursting through the core.
执政官的影像扭曲,崩碎,化为虚无.The Chancellor's image distorted—then disintegrated into nothing.
系统的心跳停止.The system's heart stopped beating.
玛莉安与赛拉斯的身影,化作碎光,散落在雷焰之间.Marian and Sylas turned to shards of light,drifting away through the storm.
"焰队!外围清空!立刻撤离!""Team Flame! Perimeter clear—evacuate now!"
伊莎的声音在通讯中炸响.Isa's voice cut through the comms.
凌焰燃起火焰护盾,苏黎引导冷气压制热浪.Ling Yan raised a wall of flame,Su Li cooled the waves of heat around them.
尤娜指引方向,莱恩掀起风流.Yuna sensed the path; Ryan stirred the wind to clear debris.
艾琳娜抱紧玛莉安的徽章,泪流不止.Elena clutched Marian's badge, tears spilling freely.
凯恩最后回头,低声道:Kane turned back and whispered,
"谢谢你,老师.""Thank you, teacher."
地面崩裂,天光倾泻.The ground split open, daylight poured in.
火与雷交织成白色的光,照亮整片灰域.Fire and lightning merged into white brilliance,lighting the entire Gray Zone.
苏黎靠在凌焰肩上.Su Li leaned against Ling Yan's shoulder.
"结束了吗?""Is it over?"
凌焰望着天空,声音低沉.Ling Yan looked up at the sky and said softly,
"结束...也是开始.""The end… is also the beginning."
凯恩张开手,雷光在掌心闪动,不再狂暴,只是温柔.Kane opened his hand;lightning flickered softly between his fingers.
"老师,我接下去了.""Teacher… I'll carry it from here."
零点崩塌,人类重生.Zero Point collapsed, and humanity was reborn.
