火舌

A second tongue of flame shot from the wand and interlinked with the first, making a fine, glowing chain.

第二条火舌从魔杖里喷出，和第一条缠绕在一起，形成一条发着光的、精美的链条。

Miriya's Alphas hit the massive twin-cannoned mecha where they lived, chattering undercarriage guns stitching molten welts across cockpit shields and torso armor, and red-tipped heat-seekers finding the ships' vulnerable sensor mouths.

米莉娅的 Alpha 战斗机部队对沿途这些体型巨大的双管加农炮机甲发起攻击，哒哒作响的腹部机炮喷吐火舌，在敌机座舱护罩和躯干装甲上划出道道烧蚀的伤痕，红色弹头的热寻的导弹则飞向敌机脆弱的传感器舱口。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
