Meros was an Apothecary of the Blood Angels Legion during the Great Crusade and the start of the Horus Heresy. Serving as a "Junior Medicae" or squad level apothecary, Meros served in the 9th Company under Brother Captain Furio

梅羅斯是大遠(yuǎn)征和大叛亂開始時(shí)期圣血天使軍團(tuán)的一名藥劑師。他是連長(zhǎng)兄弟福瑞奧手下的一名“下級(jí)醫(yī)官”，或者說(shuō)小隊(duì)藥劑師。

Meros was a simple line-Astartes of solid if unremarkable service. Following the battle of Melchior, First Captain Raldoron tasked Meros with removing the progenoid glands from Brother Alatros, then instructing him to never repeat what had happened to anyone.

那時(shí)梅羅斯只是個(gè)默默服務(wù)的普通前線阿斯塔特。但在Melchior的戰(zhàn)斗過(guò)后，第一連隊(duì)拉多隆交給他移除阿拉卓斯兄弟基因種子的任務(wù)，并且告訴他永遠(yuǎn)不要對(duì)任何人說(shuō)出今天發(fā)生的事情。

During a war against the Dark Eldar on Nartaba Octus, Meros was assigned to Task Force Ignis, a Blood Angels flotilla overseeing the evacuation of the human population of the planet before it was subjected to Exterminatus.?

在Nartaba Octus世界上對(duì)抗黑暗靈族的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)中，梅羅斯被派往伊格尼斯任務(wù)部隊(duì)——某支圣血天使小艦隊(duì)，負(fù)責(zé)在這個(gè)世界被判處滅絕令之前監(jiān)視這個(gè)世界上的人口的疏散。

Part of the last group off the planet, the Stormbird Meros was riding in was shot down by a Soul Seeker round and Meros slipped into a poison induced coma. In an attempt to save the injured apothecary, Sergeant Cassiel and Brother Sarga placed Meros in one of the exsanguinators, the blood coffins used in the Blood Angels neophyte transformation process.?

當(dāng)最后一部分居民離開星球時(shí)，梅羅斯乘坐的暴風(fēng)鳥被黑暗靈族的索魂圓盤（黑暗靈族的武器）擊中了，梅羅斯也中毒昏迷。作為拯救梅羅斯的嘗試，卡希爾軍士和薩爾卡戰(zhàn)斗兄弟將他放入了圣血石棺——用于改造圣血天使新兵的血棺。

The intent was to drain the poisoned blood from Meros and replace it will fresh, clean blood. During his time in the exsanguinator, Meros met Brother Rafen through a genetic link they shared and who has in the same exsanguinator, albeit ten thousand years in the future.

這種嘗試抽出了梅羅斯體內(nèi)的毒血，輸入了新鮮干凈的新血。當(dāng)他待在血棺重時(shí)，因?yàn)楣蚕淼幕蚵?lián)系，梅羅斯遇到了戰(zhàn)斗兄弟拉芬——他也使用了這具血棺，盡管是在一萬(wàn)年之后。

The two soon found that they were not alone, encountering the Sanguinor. Unable to believe what he was seeing, Rafen pulled his bolter on the mysterious entity, and Meros, assuming that the Sanguinor could only be Sanguinius himself, tried to stop him.?

二人很快發(fā)現(xiàn)自己并不孤單，他們碰到了圣吉列諾。拉芬無(wú)法相信自己所見的一切，拉芬對(duì)這個(gè)謎一樣的存在拔出了爆彈槍，而梅羅斯假設(shè)圣吉列諾只能是圣吉列斯本人，努力阻止拉芬（開火）。

When Rafen told Meros that Sanguinius had been dead for ten thousand years and that there was no Blood Angels Legion anymore, Meros attacked Rafen in a rage. Before the two could kill on another they were beset by phantom enemies; blood memories of past victories.

當(dāng)拉芬告訴梅羅斯：圣吉列斯已經(jīng)捐軀萬(wàn)年之久，圣血天使軍團(tuán)也不復(fù)存在后，梅羅斯狂怒地向拉芬進(jìn)攻。在他們兩個(gè)互相殘殺之前，他們被幽靈般的敵人包圍了：過(guò)往勝利的鮮血記憶。

Fighting side-by-side the two Blood Angels found a sense of camaraderie but it was Rafen who figured out what the magnitude of the two meeting could mean. Before they were pulled from their parallel yet separate blood comas, Rafen managed to utter a single word: Horus, but the Sanguinor appeared and placed its finger over his mouth, indicating that Rafen was to be silent.?

兩位并肩作戰(zhàn)的圣血天使找回了兄弟之情（機(jī)仆：其實(shí)本意應(yīng)該是同志情誼…），但只有拉芬意識(shí)到了兩人相遇意味著怎樣的重要意義，在他們被從平行但獨(dú)立的血眠中拉出來(lái)之前，拉芬努力說(shuō)出一個(gè)詞：荷魯斯。但是圣吉列諾出現(xiàn)并在嘴前豎起手指，暗示拉芬保持沉默。

At that moment, both were pulled back to their respective realities. Upon awakening, Meros was presented before Azkaellon, Captain of the Sanguinary Guard. who was impressed by his resilience. Azkaellon then informed the assembled Astartes that they had received orders from the Warmaster to gather the entire IX Legion at the Signus System.?

此時(shí)，兩人都被拉回了他們的現(xiàn)實(shí)。蘇醒后，梅羅斯被介紹給了圣血衛(wèi)帥阿茲克隆，后者對(duì)他的堅(jiān)韌印象深刻。之后阿茲克隆通知集結(jié)起來(lái)的阿斯塔特們：戰(zhàn)帥有令，整個(gè)第九軍團(tuán)在西格納斯星系集合。

Signus Prime西格納斯主星

During the Blood Angels cleansing of the Signus System, Meros served aboard the Red Tear, the flagship of the Legion. When the Legion discovered derelict starshps drifting aimlessly through the system, Meros was one of the apothecaries called to examine the bodies of the slain. To his horror, Meros discovered the bodies simply had no bones, nor was there any trace of what had killed the humans. The blood of the bodies had been a strange pinkish hue that reminded Meros of the color of the Warp.

當(dāng)圣血天使們凈化西格納斯星系時(shí)，梅羅斯在軍團(tuán)旗艦紅淚號(hào)上服役。當(dāng)軍團(tuán)發(fā)現(xiàn)被遺棄的艦船在星系中漫無(wú)目的地飄蕩時(shí)，梅羅斯是負(fù)責(zé)檢查死者遺體的藥劑師之一。梅羅斯驚恐地發(fā)現(xiàn)這些遺體中沒有骨骼，而且他們的死因也不明。遺體的血液呈奇怪的粉紅色，這讓梅羅斯想起了亞空間的顏色。

During a search and rescue mission to the planet Holst in the Signus system, Meros and his squad, along with a seemingly loyal squad of Word Bearers, encountered a Warp possessed Hive City.?

在西格納斯星系霍爾斯特世界執(zhí)行搜救任務(wù)時(shí)，梅羅斯和他的小隊(duì)在一支看似忠誠(chéng)的懷言者小隊(duì)的陪伴下，進(jìn)入了一座被亞空間占據(jù)了的巢都。

The city itself tried to kill them, using Frankenstein-esque monsters of rebar, concrete and steel. During their attempted escape from the city's outer precincts, Meros stumbled upon the body of a slain Word Bearer and noticed his blood was the same pinkish hue of the Warp touched humans.?

這座城市努力要?dú)⑺浪麄?，方式是使用鋼筋、混凝土和鋼?gòu)成的弗蘭肯斯坦式怪物。在嘗試逃往城市外圍空地時(shí)，梅羅斯被一具懷言者的遺體絆倒，他注意到死去懷言者的血液和那些被亞空間接觸過(guò)的死者一樣，也是奇怪的粉紅色。

Before he could conduct an in-depth study, the Word Bearer's Captain drove him off, demanding he leave the slain warrior at peace. The Blood Angels and Word Bearers were only saved by the personal intervention of Captain Amit who used Thunderhawks and Storm Ravens to destroy a maggot-like creature made from abandoned subway tunnels. Holst was subsequently destroyed by orbital bombardment.

但在他繼續(xù)進(jìn)行深入研究之前，懷言者連長(zhǎng)讓他離開，要求他讓死去的戰(zhàn)士安息。之后，阿密特連長(zhǎng)親自進(jìn)行干預(yù)，用雷鷹和暴風(fēng)鴉摧毀了由廢棄地鐵管道構(gòu)成的蛆蟲樣怪物，救下了圣血天使和懷言者小隊(duì)?；魻査固刈罱K被軌道轟炸摧毀。

Meros was part of the detachment that traveled to Signus Six and rescued a small band of survivors, among their number a Blank. It would be on Signus Prime that Meros would meet his ultimate fate.?

梅羅斯后來(lái)又加入了探索西格納斯六號(hào)的特遣隊(duì)，并救回了一小群幸存者，其中有一名不可接觸者。梅羅斯將在西格納斯主星迎來(lái)自己的最終命運(yùn)。

After Sanguinius was knocked unconscious by the Blood Thirster Ka'Bandha, Meros took part in a strike team to destroy the daemons fortress, the Cathedral of the Marque. While the rest of the legion, save the handful in the strike force under First Captain Raldoron, were gripped by the Red Thirst, Meros and his brothers fought through hordes of Daemonettes and Bloodletters to infiltrate the Cathedral.?

在圣吉列斯被卡班哈擊暈之后，梅羅斯加入了摧毀惡魔要塞——馬爾科大教堂的突擊隊(duì)。剩余的軍團(tuán)戰(zhàn)士在拯救一連長(zhǎng)拉多隆領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的少數(shù)突擊隊(duì)時(shí)，陷入了血渴。梅羅斯和他的兄弟們?cè)诔扇旱镊饶Ш头叛碇袣⒊鲆粭l血路，進(jìn)入了大教堂。

It was during the final confrontation between Sanguinius and the two Greater Daemons, Ka'Bandha and Kyriss the Perverse, that Meros sealed his fate.?

在圣吉列斯與兩只大魔：卡班哈和反常者凱瑞斯決戰(zhàn)時(shí)，梅羅斯確認(rèn)了自己的宿命。

After Sanguinius threw Ka'Bandha to its death from the tower of the Cathedral, Kyriss offered the Angel a deal. The daemons, along with First Chaplain Erebus of the Word Bearers and Chief Apothecary Fabius Bile of the Emperor's Children, had created a cursed artifact of pure rage, using the half dead body of Captain Tagas who was believed to have been slain on the planet Murder years earlier. Stripped of all that made him a Blood Angel, Tagas was driven mad with pain and rage and was the conduit for the rage that had consumed the Blood Angels Legion.?

在圣吉列斯將卡班哈拋下教堂塔尖，放逐他之后，凱瑞斯提供給天使一個(gè)交易。惡魔們與法比烏斯 拜爾以及艾瑞巴斯，使用已被確信多年前犧牲在謀殺世界的塔卡斯連長(zhǎng)的半截遺體，創(chuàng)造出一個(gè)純粹狂怒的詛咒造物。塔卡斯被剝奪了讓他成為圣血天使的一切，痛苦和狂怒使他瘋狂，他也是那種吞噬了整個(gè)第九軍團(tuán)的狂怒的管道。

Kyriss's deal was simple: Sanguinius need only step into the swirling vortex of blood and rage and allow his body and soul to be fully corrupted. In return, Kyriss would cure the Blood Angels of both the Red Thirst and the Black Rage forever.?

交易很簡(jiǎn)單：天使只需要走入鮮血和狂怒的漩渦，讓自己的身心徹底被混沌腐化。作為回報(bào)，凱瑞斯會(huì)永久治愈圣血天使的紅渴和黑怒。

Seeing that Sanguinius was seriously considering taking the deal, Meros leapt into the Chaos realm instead, followed swiftly by Sanguinius. Inside the vortex, Meros refused to let his Primarch take the deal. Instead Meros cut out his own geneseed and offered it to Sanguinius before allowing the rage to possess him. Meros the apothecary was dead, and the Red Angel had been born. 發(fā)現(xiàn)天使在認(rèn)真地思考接受這個(gè)交易，梅羅斯代替他跳入了混沌領(lǐng)域，天使緊隨其后。在漩渦中，梅羅斯拒絕讓原體接受交易。相反，在被狂怒占據(jù)之前，梅羅斯掏出自己的基因種子交給天使。藥劑師梅羅斯已死，惡魔紅天使誕生了。

Sanguinius confronted the daemon and demanded Meros be freed. When the Red Angel refused, Sanguinius softly asked if anything of Meros remained that could hear him. After a moment the Red Angel responded that there was a small part. Sanguinius promised Meros that his sacrifice would not be in vain and that Sanguinius would find a way to kill the daemon that now possessed him. Without further words, the Red Angel disappeared into the swirling Warp Gate it created.?

天使面對(duì)惡魔，要求它釋放梅羅斯。紅天使拒絕后，天使輕聲詢問(wèn)是否還有任何殘存的梅羅斯的部分能聽到自己說(shuō)話。一會(huì)兒之后，紅天使回答還有一小部分梅羅斯（的人格）的部分。天使向梅羅斯保證：他的犧牲不會(huì)被白費(fèi)，自己會(huì)找到殺死奪舍他的惡魔的方法。一言不發(fā)地，紅天使消失在自己創(chuàng)造的漩渦般的亞空間之門中。

The Red Angel would later present itself to Horus aboard the Vengeful Spirit and claim it would be a weapon in the Warmaster's hands. When asked by Ererbus why the daemon thought it could take the name "Red Angel" which belonged to Angron, the daemon merely responded that the name fit it better and that it would fight Angron if the primarch took issue with that. The ultimate fate of the Red Angel is unknown.?

紅天使在復(fù)仇之魂上現(xiàn)身在荷魯斯面前，宣稱它會(huì)成為戰(zhàn)帥手中的武器。當(dāng)艾瑞巴斯質(zhì)問(wèn)惡魔為什么覺得他自己可使用“紅天使”這個(gè)屬于安格隆的稱呼時(shí)，惡魔只是表示自己更配得上這個(gè)稱呼，倘若吞世者原體對(duì)此不爽的話，他們可以打一架。紅天使的最終命運(yùn)未知。

Legacy遺產(chǎn)

Because Meros removed his geneseed before his sacrifice, his genetic legacy was able to continue. Eventually his geneseed would be implanted in Rafen, who was greatly honored to bear the geneseed of a hero of the Legion and a man who personally saved Sanguinius.

因?yàn)槊妨_斯在犧牲前取出了自己的基因種子，他的基因遺產(chǎn)得以延續(xù)。最終他的基因種子植入到了拉芬軍士體內(nèi)，拉芬覺得能夠攜帶一位親自拯救過(guò)原體的軍團(tuán)英雄的基因種子是一種巨大的榮耀。
