Английский язык с Конаном-варваром

Then Conan felt the thong snap (потом Конан почувствовал треск ремня). The next instant, he hurled his full strength against the magnetic force that imprisoned him (/в/ следующее мгновение он швырнул его полную силу = всю свою силу против магнитной силы, которая пленила его). The thong unraveled through the loopholes in the mail shirt, until one whole side of the shirt was open (ремень распутался через отверстия в кольчуге, пока одна целая сторона кольчуги = одна сторона кольчуги целиком /не/ раскрылась). His shoulder and half an arm came out through the opening (его плечо и половина руки вышли через отверстие).

next [nekst], against [əˈɡenst], shoulder [ʃəuldə]

Then Conan felt the thong snap. The next instant, he hurled his full strength against the magnetic force that imprisoned him. The thong unraveled through the loopholes in the mail shirt, until one whole side of the shirt was open. His shoulder and half an arm came out through the opening.

Then he felt a light blow on the head (потом он почувствовал легкий удар по голове). The stench became overpowering, and his unseen assailant from above pushed this way and that against his helmet (вонь стала непреодолимой, а его невидимый противник сверху толкался тут и там о его шлем). Conan knew that a jellylike tendril had reached his helmet and was groping over its surface, seeking flesh (Конан знал, что желеобразный усик достиг шлема и ощупывал его поверхность, ища = в поисках мяса). Any instant, the corrosive stuff would seep down over his face (/в/ любое мгновение едкое вещество просочится вниз на его лицо)…

blow [bləu], became [bɪˈkeɪm], stuff [stʌf]

Frantically, he pulled his arm out of the sleeve of the unlaced side of the mail shirt (неистово он потянул свою руку из рукава расшнурованной стороны кольчуги). With his free hand, he unbuckled his sword belt and the chin strap of his helmet (свободной рукой он расстегнул ремень меча и ремешок на подбородке его шлема). Then he tore himself loose altogether from the deadly constriction of the mail, leaving his tulwar and his armor flattened against the stone (затем он оторвался /свободный/ полностью от смертельного захвата кольчуги, оставляя свой тульвар и /свои/ доспехи разглаженными на камне; to tear — рвать).

He staggered free of the column and stood for an instant on trembling legs (он шатался свободный от колонны и стоял какое-то мгновение на дрожащих ногах). The moonlit world swam before his eyes (освещенный луной мир поплыл перед его глазами).

Glancing back, he saw that the jelly-beast had now engulfed his helmet (посмотрев назад, он увидел, что студенистая тварь уже поглотила его шлем). Baffled in its quest for flesh (сбитая с толку в своих поисках плоти), it was sending more pseudopods down and outward, wavering and questing in the watery light (она выбрасывала ложноножки вниз и наружу, колыхаясь и ища = ведя поиск/занимаясь поисками в бледном свете).

Down the slope, the demoniac piping continued (внизу склона продолжалась демоническая игра /на флейте/). Feng sat cross-legged on the grass of the slope, tweedling away on his flute (Фэн сидел скрестив ноги на траве склона, наигрывая на своей флейте) as if absorbed in some inhuman ecstasy (как будто погруженный в какой-то нечеловеческий экстаз).
