Section VI

"There's a lot more to come, to go to a banquet to celebrate the victory, to get acquainted with the nobles in the Snow Man, to deal with the handover of the Wind Pavilion, and to find out the paperwork and find out the duties and responsibilities of being a baron......" In the streets after the disaster, Lydia whispered to Alice while guiding her way.

"yes, I see." Alice said absentmindedly.

"You'll also have to hire some servants to prepare your guard of honor and banners, and of course, if you want, you can use the Stormwind directly." Lydia looked at Alice carefully, this sentence has a little selfishness of hers, if Alice is willing to use the banner of the Storm, then maybe she will agree to inherit the surname of the Stormwind in the future.

She notices that Alice doesn't have a surname of her own, which is unreasonable for an empire.

"yes, I see."

"You should also pay your respects to the nobles who have recently died, which will help to strengthen your position. And you should be more humble with your lord, you must always swear allegiance to him. ”

Alice stopped suddenly.

"Your Excellency?" Lydia, who had led the way in front of her, also stopped, looking at her suspiciously.

"Something isn't right." Alice frowned tightly, "Something went wrong. ”

[What did I come to Xueman for?] Isn't it to chase my lost memories!? 】

[Then why am I standing here, why am I attending this boring banquet, why do I care about this so-called knighthood? Why be called around like a doll!? 】

From the first day she woke up in the snow, she was constantly defeated, frustrated, her swordsmanship was defeated by Knight, her dignity was trampled on by Farenga, her spells were meaningless in front of Gerd, and her trust and mercy were stabbed by Anche's sword. And the other Alice in her heart and the sudden appearance of Sonia make it difficult for her to even maintain her own existence.

Franst, whom she admired and admired, never cared for her, and little Ruby, who had been with her in pain, looked at her with only fear when she rose from the rubble. As for Lydia, who swore allegiance to her?

It's just a substitute for someone who doesn't know who.

What is left of her? She had nothing left.

Just like when she woke up from Helgen.

At that time, she was so weak, and she dared to face difficulties in the face of fierce beasts and strong enemies that were several times stronger than her, but now that she had absorbed the power of the dragon, her mana body was almost like a dragon, but she had to grovel to a few mortals!?

Alice let out a long breath, and a long stream of wind crashed into the ground, blowing up a small circle of dirt and ash.

"Sonia is right, identity doesn't mean anything."

She smiled brightly, and it should have been the first heartfelt cheer she could have ever remembered. "What I am depends on me."

"And now, I'm going to do what I'm supposed to do."

So Alice said to Ladia in front of her, "Go and prepare some things necessary for your journey, and wait for me at the gate of the city." ”

"Huh!?" Lydia replied in a bit of a panic, "Are you leaving Snowman?" But I still have to attend a banquet in the evening. ”

"Just do it." Alice looked at her with a smile, but the smile made Lydia feel extremely strange, and Lydia's heart felt cold, as if the person talking to her in front of her was not a girl, but a beast grinding its claws!

"This is your first mission since you pledged your allegiance to me. Why, aren't you willing to do it? ”

Lydia bit her lip and nodded vigorously. But she still didn't give up, and continued to ask, "So where are you going?" Xueman still needs a lot of things for you! ”

Alice tilted her head slightly and said, "I haven't paid off someone's debt yet." Now, it's time to collect the debt. Her steps were swift and brisk, and she soon disappeared at the end of the street.

Lydia was left alone on the broken street.

She felt that she had done something very wrong. But she didn't know what was wrong.

…………

Even after being baptized by dragon fire and earthquakes, Longxiao Palace is still majestic.

Most of the destroyed parts are on the top floor, and the middle and lower levels are not affected much. And many craftsmen and folk men have been mobilized to clean up the main palace to the point where it can be inhabited.

"Hey! What the hell! Hold it! "A few guards stood vigilantly at the gate of the main gate, and at the moment when this natural disaster had just passed, anyone who dared to make trouble would be suppressed by the most brutal means. Even if the girl in front of her is just confused!

Several guards had already drawn their short swords and stepped forward, preparing to arrest this girl who dared to approach Longxiao Palace and put her in the dungeon. One of the guards had even grabbed her by the shoulder!

"Fuck off." Alice didn't even look at them, and this small role wasn't enough for her to bother.

The main entrance of Longxiao Palace twisted and shattered, and the guards let out a high scream and flew in all directions! Their bodies fell to the mud dozens of feet away, writhing in pain. It looks miserable.

Alice didn't want to kill, at least not yet.

The path leading to the upper level of Longxiao Palace has a total of 1,099 steps, each of which is carved from a single line of fine lapis lazuli slabs, on which the myths and legends of the First Age and the ancient Nordic inscriptions are etched with secret methods. Everyone who stands on it will feel a heavy historical breath rushing towards them. Alice couldn't help but be blown away when she first walked up the steps.

But she wasn't going to do that this this time.

Alice's body lit up with a faint golden glow. The ruins and the stone pillars, the water and the soil, even the air and the wind, were bound by an invisible force field, and the path that led from her feet to the depths of the Longxiao Palace was paved from under her feetβ€”she decided to take a straight line.

This is not something that ordinary people can do, even high-level wizards who have been systematically trained can hardly do it. But for Alice, who had absorbed Minimenil, the magic in her body was dozens of times more than yesterday was enough to support it.

'!!Bell bell ’

Alarm bells rang for a long time.

Countless guards swarmed and yelled at Alice!

They swung their swords at Alice, shot arrows, and threw stone-throwing stones! They didn't know that Alice was the new baron, they only knew that this girl made them enemies!

Since you can only tremble in the shadow of the dragon, then take back your dignity in people!

Unfortunately, they ran into another dragon.

Whether it was a sword, a spear, or a halberd, all the weapons were broken and broken three feet around Alice, and the person who controlled the weapon was knocked away by the invisible force, and it was impossible to get up in a short time!

"That's it!" A pitch-black short arrow came and rippled in front of Alice! It slower and slower like a loach spilling into glue, squirming forward with difficulty. Eventually, an inch in front of Alice's right shoulder came to a complete standstill.

Alice raised her upper jaw slightly, her sky-blue eyes staring directly at the dark elf in front of her.

Balguf's Chief Guard, Ireles!

"Baron Alice, do you know what you're doing now?" Behind her, a gloomy Barguf strode under the arch of several heavily armed guards. His eyes were red, almost spewing flames. "You'd better give me a reasonable reason!"

Alice glanced at him faintly, the restraint and caution that had been in her eyes an hour ago had now turned into indifference, and the arrogant eyes that seemed to be looking at an ant made the whole body of the Snow Man Lord tremble.

She opened her mouth and said slowly, "I came to Farenga, and there is an unsettled account between him and me. ”

"Huh?" The lord laughed angrily, "That's what you're for!?" You actually hit Longxiao Palace for a little unpleasantness with Fa Renjia so long ago!? He glanced at Alice in disgust and waved his hand vigorously.

"I really misread you, you don't have the power of a nobleman at all. Come! Arrest her! ”

Before he could finish speaking, several guards beside him rushed towards Alice!

"Uhhhh!!!!h

Before the guards' feet left the ground, the heavy steel armor on their bodies melted into red-hot molten steel! They festered and rolled on the ground wailing, and even though they were much stronger than the average soldier, they were now on the line of death.

"You!" Barguf's eyes were torn apart, and he drew his sword and rushed forward! But before he could take a step forward, Ireles in front of him snorted and fell limply to the ground.

The glass rock light breastplate on her chest was pressed into a palm print an inch deep. Dark red blood oozed from her mouth and nose.

And Alice was already in front of him, the ebony blade pointed straight at his neck!

The gold and silver powder on the sword's body gradually fell, and the gloomy material made Barguf feel chills in his spinal cord even if it was a few inches away!

"This sword." Alice said slowly, "This sword has been telling me that if I draw the blood of deception, I can gain more power. I guess you don't want me to verify what the blood of fraud is. ”

"You're fighting against the whole snowman. You're going to die a bad death. The lord said through gritted teeth.

"Do you dare to do it? Barguf. The ebony sword in her hand stepped forward an inch.

And the lord also subconsciously took half a step back.

Alice smiled contentedly, and then stopped looking at him. She walked straight to the wall. Fingertips are inserted deep into the stone.

Tear --- !

Half of the wall was torn off by her in an instant! And she also saw the panicked Farenga behind the wall as she wished!

"Slate and translation." Alice looked at her with a small smile on her face. "Did you give it to me, or did I do it myself?"

She got what she wanted right away.

"Here our lord sleeps, and only the roar of Alduin can awaken him...... What a mess. ”

The translation is followed by a marked map of Skyrim Province, with detailed geographical descriptions of certain locations.

Alice was a little disappointed, it was supposed to be a treasure map or a tomb map. A long history. Obviously, it can't have much to do with her lost memories. But she put away the translation and the slate anyway. Then he threw a bolt of thunder at Farenga's body, and the latter was so electrified that his whole body convulsed, and a faint scorched smoke came out. But he still didn't dare to open the spell barrier.

He had a hunch that if he dared to use even a trace of mana, the consequences would definitely be that he would die and not die again.

This stoicism made Alice look at him highly, but it was just a glance.

The main entrance to the palace was smashed to pieces by her. She didn't glance at the lord's iron-clad face at all.

"The strong are the strong, and the weak are the weak. The strong dominate the weak, and the weak serve the strong. Thank you for learning one more thing. ”
