不朽的九The Immortal Ninth战锤40K历史片段

这次带来的是HH8里的一个片段,在他们介绍第九军团的过去的时候我截取了一个很有趣的片段。当然作为一个翻译庭萌新感觉没准还有我没注意到的地方,有啥问题欢迎和我说,如果侵权就删(应该不至于吧)。顺便感谢那位在圣血天使QQ群里分享HH8的大佬(感谢大佬,大佬厉害)!当然现在他们(第九军团)已经不再是这个样子了,因为我们无上的天使姐姐(圣吉列斯)在看到他们的时候觉得他们还是有所谓“战士的魂或者说是战士的荣耀的存在”,所以他给了这群人尊重和带给了他们荣耀。(B站没有资源贴吧上也没找到...发一下没关系的吧)

以下是全文,转发随意如果一定要转载请和我说一下:
The Immortal Ninth不朽的九
Time and time again the pride of the IX'h Legion was to fall on the field of battle, yet the records of their valour make common mention of the same handful of warriors and champions. Some remembrancers and historians have taken this to indicate a long history of redoubtable heroes, even going so far as to compile these records into a number of epic stanzas, forming the separate entries into a single legend. Yet, the true reason for the longevity of certain names within the order of battle for the IX'h Legion is far less heroic.
第九军团的英勇和在战场上所向披靡令他们骄傲,但他们的歼敌记录却只是提到了少量的军士和其队长的名字。
一些记忆者和历史学家认为这表明了这些英雄的寿命悠久,甚至将这些记录汇编成若干史诗节,形成了单独的一个传说。
然而,在第九军团的战斗顺序中某些名字长寿的真正原因远不那么英勇。
Since its foundation, the rx•h Legion had operated in the most extreme battlefield conditions and necessity had forced upon them a number of practises that might otherwise be seen as monstrous. One among these, fostered by the nature of their design and the conditions under which they fought, was the consumption of fallen captains by their followers in order to preserve their hard-won skills and experience. As a mark of honour as well as practicality, it also became accepted that recruits took the names of those whose skills they absorbed, and lieutenants would assume the names of their captains. Such was the resemblance of each member of the IX'h to their flawless brothers that most outsiders failed to notice this subtle brand of immortality. The most famous example of which being the figure thought to have served as the IX'h Legion's first and only master, other than Sanguinius himself. Known to history as Ishidur Ossuros, this warrior is commonly held to have commanded the IX'h from Unity to the discovery of Baal in late M3o, yet a closer examination of the records shows that name died numerous times, only to be replaced by another.
自成立以来,第九军团在最极端的战场条件下作战,必要性迫使他们采取一些可能万劫不复的做法。
其中一个是因为他们的身体情况和他们战斗的能力本身,如果说一个队长不幸在战场上死去,他的追随者会将他们吸收(吃)掉以获得他们的战斗记忆和能力。
这甚至代表了一种荣誉,新兵也接受了他们所“吸收”和继承战斗技能的人的名字,并且在(吸收掉队长以后)副队(lieutenant是中尉的意思)将延续使用他们的队长的名字。
这就是“第九”的每个成员与他们完美无瑕的兄弟的相似之处,大多数外人都没有注意到这种微妙的所谓“不朽”。
最着名的例子是第九军团的第一个也是除了圣吉列斯本人之前唯一的主人(军团长)。
历史上称为爱施德.奥斯罗斯,这位战士通常被认为是团结第九军团到M30晚期发现巴尔(圣吉列斯)之前的军团长,但仔细检查战场记录显示这个名称死了很多次,只是被另一个人取代。

Over time and battles past count, this practise became an honoured tradition of the Legion, a visceral ritual that bound the survivors together despite their often disparate origins. Yet as much as it bound those of the IX'h Legion to each other, it forced them away from their brethren among the Imperial Army and other Legions. In the years before Sanguinius' return, no few of the other Primarchs expressed a distaste with the practises of the IX'h Legion, though they could not dispute their success on the battlefield. Such was the legacy of mistrust and barbarism that the IX'h carried with them, one pressed upon them by the brutal necessity of their calling.
随着时间的推移和经过无数战斗,这种做法成为了军团的荣誉传统,这是一种“内脏交接仪式”,尽管他们拥有完全不同的起源,但却将幸存者联系在一起。
然而,尽管它将第九军团的士兵团结在一起,却迫使他们与帝国军队和其他军团格格不入。
在圣吉列斯回归之前的几年中,其他原体中很少有人对第九军团的做法表示厌恶,因为他们无法质疑他们在战场上的成功。
这就是第九军团的能力带来的不信任和野蛮的过去,因为残酷地迫切需要他们而召唤和强迫使用他们。
