An intense, musky odor filled the air. It was horrible. 空气中弥漫着一阵浓浓的麝香味。真是可怕极了!
For an instant I thought the poor man entwined by the devilfish might be torn loose from its powerful suction. 我想那个被章鱼缠住的不幸者应该可以摆脱这强大的束缚了。
Seven arms out of eight had been chopped off. Brandishing 7 its victim like a feather, one lone 8 tentacle was writhing 9 in the air. 那只章鱼的八只爪子有七只被斩断了,只剩下那只把遇害者像一支笔那样抓住挥舞的爪子在空中扭动着。
But just as Captain Nemo and his chief officer rushed at it, 但当尼摩船长和大副向这只爪子冲过去的那一刻,
