The Journey of the Demon Hunter

In the afternoon of the same day, Zelin heard a message from the people of the town.

The Severin family in Ravenstone assassinated Senator Morfan for trying to collude with Ulun of the Laru family. This involves the hatred between the dark elves and the rich. The hatred between the Laru family and the Redoran family is no longer a secret, and Ulun is one of the families that serves the Laruhao family. Unlike the lord of Skyrim, Morrowind is divided into families that control different towns and villages. Some of the families are the most powerful. For example, the Redoran family that controls Southam is one of them.

Zelin didn't have much interest in the hatred between these families. Considering that the dark elves have a much longer lifespan than normal humans, some hatreds may be traced back to before the outbreak of Red Mountain, which is meaningless to him. The purpose of his return to Skyrim this time is to help Gneia figure out who the self-proclaimed Dragonborn Milac and the cultist who pursued her are, and to help Francesca's plan to match up in another world. He has almost solved the latter, and when Mirak's matter is solved, he should be ready to go back and find Wigwarts who is still hiding somewhere.

But this matter definitely has nothing to do with Gnaiya. After only two days in this town, many people in the city knew Ganya's name. First helped the priest clean the ashes in the temple, and then helped the innkeeper to distribute the new liquor. When the letter was handed over to the deputy member Adel who was in charge of the personal safety of Senator Morfan, she also helped Adel by the way. The deputy member's wife retrieved a book that was lost in the wreckage of a wrecked ship on the shore, and brought back a lot of materials she needed urgently for a certain dark elf alchemy who sold medicinal materials in the town.

Zelin really doubted that if Gnaiya didn't choose to go to another world, but instead chose to wander around Tamriel, would one day her name spread across the entire continent.

However, the guards of the Redoran family failed to catch the Severin family. Most of the guards were still resisting the attack of the Ash Demon, and the few guards sent to the past were attacked by the Morag Gang assassins. Some of the assassins of the Morag Gang were defeated by the Dragonborn, and Gnaiya helped the Redoran guards who were besieged by the assassins to save their lives, but the undercover of the Severin family was rescued by their accomplices.

But even so, Senator Morfan of Ravenstone Town still showed great gratitude to Gnaiya. He gave Gnaiya five hundred Septin gold coins, as well as the Severin family’s most expensive place in Ravenstone Town. Nice manor. This comparison made Gnaiya complain about the behavior of many lords of Skyrim for a long time.

"In Skyrim, I killed a dragon and gave me five hundred gold coins!" Gnaiya looked at the house that should belong to her now, and stretched out the five fingers of her left hand to Zelin, and then she stretched out her right hand again. Five fingers "In Morrowind, when I revealed a plot to assassinate the lord, I gave me 500 gold coins and a fully equipped house! Damn it! Do you know how much money I spent to renovate the wind house? When my parents passed away, I should go directly to Morrowind to make a living. I thought it would be easier to go back to the hometown of Skyrim because I was all Nords... The compensation offered to me by Nord compatriots was not as good as that of Morrowind. The gray leather elves give more and more affordable."

It can be seen that Gnaiya has always been worried about the fact that she is in Skyrim, but still has to work hard to make money for the purchase of a house. She bought the house but found that there was no bed in it.

"But anyway, this is my manor in Morrowind. Welcome to my manor, everyone." Gnaiya looked at this well-equipped dark elf style manor with satisfaction. The Severin family is the richest family in Raven Rock, and this is reflected in the Severin family's house, both in terms of scale and interior decoration.

It can be seen that Gnaiya is very happy to be able to earn what she needs by her own ability. I still remember that she got the key to the wind house from the manager of Snowman City. When she opened the door of her own house for the first time, she I stayed alone in the wind house for a long time, as if he wanted to keep all the corners of the house in his mind. It's like Zelin ending his training as a demon hunter. He still remembers how he felt when he was killing a few grave ghouls and getting 40 Oren coins commissioned by the demon hunter for the first time. .

Serana is in front of the enchanting table, using a small piece of soul stone to enchant her dagger.

"What should we do next? Go to the temple of Mirak first?" Francesca, who uncovered all the books of Severin's house, looked up from the pile of books on the desk. "Or go to Skal first. Village? I set up some defensive magic in this house to prevent someone from sneaking in after we leave. Oh, yes, for the situation last night, I have some guesses, maybe the spiritual magic of chaotic energy can make We figured out what was in their minds when these townspeople were under control."

"Run into their spirits, and then from their minds, find the root of controlling these people?" Selana and Gnaya didn't quite understand what Francesca, but Ze who came from the same world as the elves Lin did know some of her magical terms.

"Yes, this is the method used in the past to treat mental curses-such as making people fall into a coma and unable to wake up-sometimes the victim's spirit will be trapped or lost in a nightmare. This magic allows you to find It, liberate it." Francesca added.

"It sounds like something Valmina, the demon of dreams, would do." Serana commented, "Like Valmina's Nightmare Swamp of Oblivion."

"Maybe we can do these two things at the same time." Ganya said to the elf, and she drew out her saber. The village of the Kal. The elves will use magic to cover me, and Serrana can use magic to help you. Finally, we meet in the village of the Skar. If either of us encounters trouble, such as encountering Mirak, we will immediately use Qianli Mirror contact."

After talking about her plan, Gnaiya looked at the other three people, "What do you think?"

"It would be great if we could go again at night," Selana said, "I have no other opinion."

Gnaiya looked at the two remaining people, and Zelin shrugged. "Then we will prepare and set off in the evening."

Chapter 921: The Dark Sotham

When the sun was about to disappear on the other side of the sea level and the sky was shrouded in darkness again, they left the town of Crowstone. When it was late at night, the townspeople of Crow Stone Town would change into another look. After having the last experience, they left the town as early as possible. Regardless of whether these controls can expose the whereabouts of the dragonborn to Milac's eyes, they'd better leave when everything is normal.

The dragonborn and the elves went to the Temple of Mirak together. They used to deal with a large cursed tree in the undead settlement. Even if they encountered Mirak who was ambushing inside, when they were in danger, Francesca’s teleportation technique could still be used. Bring them out. No one knows the specific strength of Milac, Patunax has a general understanding, but thousands of years have passed, Zelin believes that Milac will not change in thousands of years.

His survival is enough to prove that he is not purely used only for dragonborn power.

"Be careful, if you are in trouble..."

"I'll let the elves use the telescope to contact you, and then we will come together to solve this Milak." Gnaiya clenched her right hand into a fist and waved it. When I saw the believers of Milak in my village, I must tell us that I really want to see the mind-reading skills of the elves."

"I won't let you down, Dragonborn." In Southam, Francesca finally doesn't need to maintain the illusion that changes her appearance every day. The chaotic energy accumulated in her body can be increased accordingly and used to cast Ah Zulie's Thunder or use the double cross spell to summon a chaotic creature with combat effectiveness to follow him.

To reach the temple of Mirak, you need to follow a winding mountain road, the temple is on the top of the mountain in the center of Southam. Zelin and Selana proceeded east along the road along the coast, bypassing the mountains in the middle of Southam, and arrived at the village of Skal on the other side of the island.

According to the plan, after exploring the temple of Mirak, Gnaiya and Francesca will go straight down the mountain to the village of Skal on the other side of the mountain, where they will meet Zelin and Serana.

On the road, Zelin encountered a monster called the Ash Demon by the residents of Ravenstone Town. This creature is quite similar to the gargoyle made by vampires, but it is said to be born out of volcanic ash and cooling lava after the eruption of Red Mountain. Monster out. Several ash devils attacked Zelin and Serana on the road. After a fight, the pockets of the demon hunters and the vampires added a few rare ores and ash-sticky gems.

These monsters are very powerful, but as long as they can give the Ash Demon's chest and head enough blows, they will eventually become a pool of broken sand. They were born in lava and ashes, and a careful search can also find something valuable in their ashes. But this is not a way to make money. For ordinary fighters, these ashes are enemies that are powerful enough to be deadly.

Due to the higher altitude, the climate near the area where the Skal people live is colder than the town of Raven Rock on the other side of Southam. This may be because this area is located at the back of the Red Mountain in Southam. Most of the volcanic ash accumulates on the peaks of Southam, without too much impact on the back of the mountain. The central mountain range of Southam is like a dividing line, clearly separating the southwest from the northeast. The Nord-style stones on both sides of the road kept reminding Zelin that he had crossed this dividing line.

"It was mentioned in my geography book that Southam was connected to the mainland of Skyrim in the past, but for some reason it became the lonely island floating on the sea." Selana and Ze Lin said that she had some knowledge about Southam in her mind. "After that, the Nords living on Southam Island and their Skyrim cousins ​​had differences in customs and worship, but here There are no vampires on the island. I remember my father wanted to send someone to this island in the past, but in the end he gave up."

Zelin has been listening to Serana's words, but in the end, when Serana asked Zelin what he thought of this matter, the demon hunter seemed to have heard something. He frowned slightly and raised his eyebrows. Hand motioned Selana to be careful. Seeing Zelin's gesture, Miss Vampire drew out her dagger pinned to her waist, held it with one hand, and condensed an ice cone in her palm.

"What's the matter?"

"Something is wrong..." Zelin believed in his sense of hearing. The sensitive senses of the demon hunter saved his life in the hands of monsters. He never attributed anything wrong to auditory hallucinations and vertigo. Let him throw away a life-saving straw "I think I heard something."

The demon hunter lowered his body, he was sure that the sound came from the hillside. He carefully walked up the hillside while pulling out the ebony blade, the muscles on his arms were tense, ready to receive an attack from any direction at any time. Serana followed him, just as she did when they broke into the valley of the snow elves together.

When they climbed the hillside, they looked up the hillside. I saw on the edge of the hillside, a huge boulder that resembled the rock outside of Yashi Town. Zelin could only see the outline, because the huge stone was about to be completely enclosed by the stone cage outside. Many men and women wearing Nord-style armors are surrounding the boulders, constantly hammering and polishing the stones excavated from the nearby mountains to the required specifications, and then transporting them to the stone prison that is being built.

The sky has not completely turned dark, and these people obviously didn't come here to build stone prisons when it was dark. Ze Lin walked out of the **** and looked at the same place as the rock. He noticed that some people's hands had been frayed, and their palms had become bloody. This was not something that would happen overnight at work. The stone prison here is about to be completed soon, and the progress is much faster than the ground stones outside of Raven Stone Town.

"I was always taught by my mother to avoid these ruins. Now I finally understand..." Selana looked at the controlled laborers and whispered, "How long have they been controlled?"

"I don't know, but it must have been a long time." Zelin saw some people lying on the ground motionless near the boulder. "About two months ago, no one from the Skal tribe went to Ravenstone Town."

"You think these people are..."

"Skar." The demon hunter narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at these people in Nordic armor. He walked behind a Skal laborer and pressed the Skull's shoulder. The Scarlet turned his head. He was probably in his thirties. Although his eyes were dull, Zelin could see that his body was extremely tired. Unsurprisingly, this Skal, like the controlled resident of Raven Stone, was chanting unidentified but rather rhythmic words.

"I hope we are not too late." Zelin shook his head and picked up a stone from the ground.

"What do you mean?" Selana looked at Zelin without knowing it. The demon hunter released his hand on the shoulder of the Skal, and the Skal immediately turned around, holding the stone and walking towards the stone prison construction site again. Zelin immediately smashed the back of the Skal's head, and with a bang, the Skal fell on the snow outside the boulder and fainted.

"Serana, you help bring that tired Skull on." Zelin bent over to put the Skull who was knocked out by himself on his shoulders, and pointed out that the name should be because of being overworked. Woman collapsed on the ground. This tired man gave the demon hunter an unexpected idea. The unknown spiritual magic controls the people on Southam Island and asks them to build stone prisons by the boulders, but these people are still alive. If a person gets tired or loses mobility for some reason, then this kind of spiritual magic can't make the body lose strength, and continue to move stones.

Miss Vampire carried another Nord.

"Where shall we go next?"

"Go to the village of Skal." Zelin looked to the other side of the hillside. According to the description of the residents of Ravenshi Town, the village of Skal was not far away. "I hope there are still people who have not been controlled."

Chapter 922 Skar Village

When Zelin and Serrana crossed the hillside, they first saw a Nord longhouse, on the longhouse's door number board, carved with the words Cesk Mead Hall. Due to time and wind and frost, the first few writings have become indistinguishable. Zelin entered the brewery and searched for it. The brewery was empty, but there were a few strange creatures similar to Xiaodi Ling. Probe the brain nearby. These strange creatures do not seem to be controlled, perhaps their intelligence level has not reached the level that can be controlled.

These little creatures did not show strong hostility towards Zelin and Serana, maybe they felt that the two people who broke into the mead hall were dangerous. Since they didn't take the initiative to attack, the demon hunters didn't bother with these little blue creatures.

The mead hall was fairly tidy. Zelin saw some rancid food and a few bottles of honey wine on the long table in the house, and a few pieces of charcoal that had not been completely extinguished were smoldering in the long slender bonfire pool in the middle. It's as if the people in the brewery were preparing to eat, but suddenly something happened interrupted their dinner, but they could see the Skar's brewery, which meant that they were very close to the Skar village.

"Are these Skars controlled by those strange stones?" Standing at the gate of the brewery, Serrana put down the Skars she was carrying and patted the white snow falling on the black hair on her forehead. Looking at the brewery "It makes me feel very uncomfortable here."

"Me too."

Zelin didn't know how these people were controlled. It felt like he knew there were monsters in this cave, but he didn't know where the monsters were hiding in the dark corner. And this brewery shows that when the disaster struck, the Skars were not prepared. Like the dark elves in Ravenstone Town, they are likely to be controlled unknowingly.

"Let's go, Selana, the village of Skal is not far from here."

Leaving the Meadow Hall, and not long before continuing to the southeast, bypassing the small lake beside the Meadow Hall, when they walked up to a high ground, on the plain at the foot of the mountain, the Skal village came into view.

This is a standard Nord village. Almost a dozen houses made of logs and hay form the main part of the village. These Nord-style long houses and the surrounding snowy foothills make Zelin feel as if He went back to somewhere in the sky. The sky was very dark, and the falling goose feathers and heavy snow dyed the village and woodland white together. Thick white snow had already piled up on the roof of the village. Standing from a distance, the village and the snow land seemed to be integrated.

"Um... I don't think we are too late."
