The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Mage Somo raised his hand and subconsciously cast a spell. But Zelin didn't intend to give him a chance. The Demon Hunter had already seen how troublesome it was to deal with the destruction magic of this world. As soon as Mage Somo raised his hand to cast magic, Zelin raised his hand and threw a flying knife. The flying knife turned twice in mid-air, just hitting Mage Somo's neck. The mage fell to the ground without a word, and after a few struggles, there was no movement.

As soon as he threw out the throwing knife, Zelin squeezed the ebony blade and set aside the mace that the interrogation soldier had hit. This soldier could have escaped, or warned Somo outside the dungeon, but instead of doing so, he continued to wield the mace he had picked up from the side and attacked Zelin. Zelin escaped the blow and stabbed a sword in his face. The Somo interrogator instinctively raised the weapon and tried to block the blow, but this was only Zelin's feint, the sword pierced the mace and pierced in through the unsuspecting armpit of Somo's armor.

Not looking at the Somo soldiers who had lost their combat effectiveness and fell to the ground, Zelin left and looked around, preparing for an attack from any direction. After two seconds, he determined that there were only two soldiers and a mage in this dungeon, and there were no other enemies who were hiding in the dark and preparing to attack, or standing by the corridors and cages, so that he hadn't noticed for the first time. After taking a closer look and confirming that there is no danger, the demon hunter walked to the entrance of the cave, squatted down and stretched out his hand, holding Valerica's black leather gloved hand, and pulling her up.

"Somo wouldn't have thought that someone would come out of their dungeon." Valerica slapped her clothes, patted off the web of cobwebs on it, and squinted her eyes to look at the "dirty place in the dungeon."

The demon hunter walked into the cell where Baron Brylin was being held. The baroness hung her head feebly, her hands were handcuffed, and her whole person was fixed to the wall, until Zelin used what he had taken out of Somo's interrogator. After the key opened the shackles that held her, she almost fell to the ground weakly.

"You... uh!" She clutched her abdomen, and after a while she came back to her senses. "Holy spirit! Why are you here?! Uh... wait, my legs, let me sit for a while, I can't stand up."

Baroness Brylin looked a little embarrassed, her clothes became tattered and there were blood stains all over her body.

"I'll let Valerica send you out." Zellin beckoned the female vampire behind. Valerica frowned slightly, but then walked over and took over and tried to lift Brylin up. "Judith has a carriage, and she is waiting outside."

"Judith, I knew that she would find someone to rescue me." Brelin breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought the person who came to save me should be the guard of the Blue Palace. Thank you, I knew it, in that scene. There are so many warriors at the wedding banquet, and only you are the warrior worthy of deep friendship."

While Valerica helped Brylin to leave, Zelin found other cages by the way. There were also some people who were kept inside. There were so many traces of interrogation on their bodies, so that when Zelin killed the two Somos in the cell, these prisoners didn't have the strength to look up and see what happened outside the cell.

Zelin smashed the locks of the cage with a sword and freed the shackles of the prisoners.

"There is a cave below, leading to the outside. You can escape from there." Zelin said to these newly released prisoners with a blank face. There are Somo soldiers everywhere. Go home and look for someone you know, or anyone who can help you, hurry up, before Somo has noticed here."

These ragged prisoners immediately got up and escaped from the underground cave. There were two clever prisoners. They did not forget to take off the clothes of the dead Somo interrogator and soldiers and put them on them. Although there is no snow outside, the night temperature in the sky is never warm, and the clothes of Master Somo and soldiers can at least keep them warm.

After the prisoner left, he took a deep breath, and Zelin lightly stepped down the steps to the door above the dungeon.

Chapter 877: Lucky or Conspiracy

The style of the Somo Embassy is similar to the architectural style of Solitary City.

Perhaps, this place itself was a building belonging to Solitary City in the past, but after Somo came to take this place as his own, the place was transformed into the present one that combines the banquet hall, barracks and prisons. Somo Embassy in one.

"There are savage Nords everywhere here, as well as crazy Talos heresy. There was an attack in Solitary City yesterday and a high elf mage was killed."

"I don't want to understand the religious meaning of this conflict, I just want to know, did the imperial people in Solitary City ever catch the murderer?" The two elf soldiers talked and walked through the embassy courtyard. On the periphery of the embassy is a circle of stone walls equipped with spiked fences. There is a passage on which allows soldiers in the embassy to stand on the fence and resist the siege from the outside. "I don’t believe these people who live in Skyrim, no matter what Was it a Nord, a tiger, or an empire. The wood elf named Marborn betrayed us. What happened to that attack? Who was the murderer?"

"The empire said that it was a fire caused by an experimental accident."

"This must be done by Talos heresy. Everyone in the empire wants to avoid the obligation to prohibit heretical beliefs in the Platinum Agreement."

While talking, the two soldiers walked through the courtyard to the guard barracks on the other side of the embassy. There is also a Master Somo in the courtyard, who guards the gate of the prison house. This building is called Alanwen's Light, at least as it is called to the outside world. On the surface, this building is just a place for Ambassador Alanwen to work and rest. Of course, Somo in the embassy almost knows that the ambassador never comes here. The real office and rest place is hers. Interrogator and Talos hunter.

Mage Somo turned his back to the gate, and kept looking around him, to prevent any thieves and bad-hearted enemies from sneaking in here.

Suddenly, the door of the dungeon house opened a small slit, one hand stretched out from inside, one hand covered the mage's mouth, and the other hand pulled the somo mage who hadn't reacted into the door. Before the door was closed again, there was a muffled noise inside, and then there was no movement.

"What did you find?"

Zelin picked up the fainted Mage Somo and threw it into the side room on the side of this building. On the other side, Valerica was in the interrogator’s office, putting all the records stacked in the bookcases and drawers. They took them out and searched one by one for information related to cultists or dragonborn.

"Some interesting things." Valerica threw a dark red notebook in her hand onto the table. "There are still some boring things." The vampire picked up another book to report, and after a few glances, Shredded and thrown into the fireplace, Zelin saw the writing on the remaining pieces of paper, which seemed to be a report of studying the vampires of Skyrim.

"What is this?"

Zelin picked up the red leather notebook that Valerica had placed on the table, opened the first page, and he saw a familiar name "Dawnguard?"

"Somo's research file on you." Valerica tore the flame of a letter in her hand, and after a few glances, threw it to Zelin. "And this, the research file of the new chief mage of Winterhold College. ."

"They wrote my name wrong." Looking at the Dawn Guardian file, the part of the Demon Hunter was specially separated. He turned a few pages casually, "Also, I am not a hybrid offspring of an imperial and a half-dragon, why would they think that way?"

Zelin would see his enemy organize a file for himself for the first time, but he didn't know whether he should be happy or angry. There are many records on the file that are seriously inconsistent with the actual situation.

"When did I become a believer in Mephala? I just have a weapon. Well, now I am a resident of Helgen, or a poor man whose family died in the disaster of Helgen."

"They only know that the first time you appeared in everyone’s eyes was in Helgen. But believers are proud of getting magic artifacts. As a dawn guard who is similar to the Standal vigilant, you have a handful of dawn guards. Magic artifact, they will definitely suspect that you are a believer in Mephala." Valerica threw all the useless documents into the fireplace, and many things that Somo had investigated before were reduced to ashes in a flame.

"As a dawn guard, I am very close to the vampire family. Why don't they suspect that I am a vampire?" Zelin joked and threw the file about himself into the fire.

"You can be a Valchiha vampire at any time, as long as you want." Zellin's file hadn't fallen into the fire, and Valerica caught it in midair. "If you don't mind, I will stay."

"It's okay." Zelin opened the report on Winterhold Academy, and after looking at it a few times, he frowned. At the end of the report, a plan proposed by the rapporteur is attached. Somo will try to infiltrate and disintegrate Winterhold Academy, so that Winterhold Academy will also participate in this increasingly chaotic and fierce civil war, and also deliberately Mention the Staff of Magnus in Virginia's hand.

"Something very important?" Valerica raised her eyebrows.

"The Goddess of Luck is on my side." Zelin tapped the corner of his mouth slightly. Had it not been for the sudden change of the demon hunter's nerves, he would have laughed now. The last time I was able to easily fight the White Rose Knights, a large part of it was due to the assistance of the Winterhold Mage. It can be said that the Winterhold Mage is the most important ally of the demon hunters today. If Somo really dismantles the Winterhold Plan and get certain results, which is no small trouble for the demon hunter.

Fortunately, Zelin now not only knew Somo's plan, but also attacked the Somo Embassy first before Somo implemented the plan. If he hadn't returned to Skyrim because of Gnaiya's affairs, he would probably not have discovered that there is still a force in Skyrim planning a conspiracy against the Demon Hunter and Winterhold Academy.

"Goddess of luck? Maybe Mephala is helping you, the demon of its conspiracy, allowing you to discover these conspiracies." Valerica curled her lips. "Look at this, Dragonborn report."

With that said, the female vampire handed over a brand-new archive book. The cover of the archive book was affixed with Somo's seal. No one was allowed to read it at will except Ambassador Alanwen and the Chief Talos Hunter.

Zelin took it and tore off the seal. Valerica walked to him and checked the record in the book with him. It didn't take long before he found what he needed. The latest part of the Dragonborn archives records many of Somo's investigation results about cultists.

Chapter 879 Archives

Dragonborn Genaya, the only known dragonborn on the mainland today, demonstrated the ability to absorb dragon souls when fighting against giant dragons in Snowman City, and then responded to Greybeard's call to go to the Maw of the World to practice roar The way.

"Did you know? At that time, Gnaiya stayed in Xueman for several days. In the end, because there was really no other commission for her to do, she decided to go to the Throat of the World to see Greybeard in order not to sit and eat the sky." Looking through the files of Dragonborn, Zelin relentlessly corrected the incorrect place in the file. "The price of the wind house at the time shocked her. In order to buy the house... I really sympathize with Lai. Dia, she brought back all the supplies and equipment from all bandit camps near Xueman. Later she complained to me that only after killing a dragon, the lord general gave her a bounty of five hundred septins."

In the archives, the initial part is very different from the facts, but the more detailed and precise the records are, the more accurate the records will be. This allows Zelin not to worry. The information obtained from Somo will mislead his investigation.

"There have been many dragonborns in this world. I don't know what kind of strength the dragonborn lord you know is." "Emperor of the Septim dynasty is a dragonborn, but the final dragonborn bloodline of the royal family was almost completely slaughtered by the assassins. If the dragonborn cannot gain enough power, she is an ordinary person with a special identity. It will not bring her natural strength. I suggest that you warn this dragonborn after going to the Hogarth Peak, that Somo is a group of dangerous enemies, and the threat they pose will not be much smaller than that of the dragon."

"I will tell her, but I prefer to solve the threat before it appears." Zelin opened the last section of the file catalog.

According to Somo's investigation, when these cultists were first noticed, it was in Xueman and Winter Fort. Before that, there had never been any witness records of cultists, as if they had emerged out of thin air. Considering that the Port of Winterhold near the Sea of ​​Undead had already been destroyed in the flood that year, and the cultists would inevitably pass through the surrounding territories when entering Snowman, in the end, the Somo Elf determined a place.

East Territory

They investigated Falkreath, Rift Valley, and Morningstar. There were no reports of cultists in these three places, and the only place, and the most suspected place, was the Eastern Territory where Windhelm City controlled by Stormcloak was located. . That was the only place where Somo did not have the power to investigate, but even so, some information about the Eastern Territory was also mentioned in the file. At the end of the file, the Somo investigator wrote down his own conclusions.

It is very likely that the cultists arrived at Windhelm by boat, and the river outside Windhelm directly leads to another province in the east of Skyrim, the province of Chenfeng.

"Somo suspects that the dark elves of Morrowind might try to intervene in the immediate Skyrim situation."

Zellin and Valerica looked at each other.

"This is not good news." The demon hunter shrugged. "Although it's not terrible news."

At least he can be sure that the source of the cultists should be the ships docked in Windhelm. They brought these cultists from Morrowind. At that time, you only need to go outside Windhelm and ask about the ships that are currently sailing to Morrowind in Windhelm and where they are going. This way, he can easily figure out the cultist’s behind-the-scenes master, or Tell me where the base camp is.

"What's going on here?"

A Somo mage walked in, and he looked around the house that had suddenly become empty. "Costello! Lulandivan! Where are you guys?!" He yelled as he went into the house. Come. Zelin leaned behind the office door, and Valerica hid on the other side, waiting for the Somo mage to walk in. However, Mage Somo just walked into the building hall and suddenly stopped.

"I know what I heard!"
