Chapter 318: Era and Time
My name is Akatosh,
Alduin, you're on the wrong set!
β4E, 201, Moon of Fire, 24th, 20:00 β
The hour of dusk has passed, and the entire Skyrim Province has been completely obscured by the shadows of the western mountains, and it has entered a dim night, and the only one still in the "day" is the first peak, Hosga, like a candle in endless darkness.
After Arthur spent more than ten minutes reading The Elder Scrolls, there seemed to be a subtle change in his temperament, but I couldn't say what it was, I pondered for a while, and found that I didn't have a talent for profiling, so I decided to give up.
"Hey, stupid system, where's Alduin?" I turned the monitoring of the heights of Horsga a few times and there was still nothing in the sky.
[Probably went to the province to resurrect the dragon?] γ
"Hmm......"
According to the original setting, the Dragonborn protagonist has just learned to "break the dragon" through the Elder Scrolls, and Alduin can't wait to appear in front of him/her from the sky, and after a few taunts with Patunax, he was yelled down from the sky by the protagonist's voice, followed by a violent beating, it was beaten to the point that it suspected the dragonborn, and fled directly back to Songgard in embarrassment.
Now that I think about it, this plot is just as problematic as Alduin's attack on Helgen, the Elder Scrolls recreates through a vision the exile of Alduin by the three heroes of the ancients at the cost of two dead and one wounded, and the Dragonborn gets an extremely degraded version of "Dragon Break", and at this time, it is completely for him/her to test the power.
[Didn't you come because of the difference in strength? There are four dragons and one demon god gathered here. γ
"Speaking of which, what's going on with that Ancestor Yuanlong? I thought it was Milak who was laying out the plan in advance, but it turned out that the dragon was a fool, and he was very happy to be a rabbit. I looked at the rabbit who was being touched by Sophie.
[That is really the layout, in order not to arouse suspicion, Milak forcibly hypnotized his mount into a rabbit, but it has some kind of mark on it, containing the power of 'Hermeus Mora', once Milak says certain words to his face, it will immediately recover and turn back. γ
"What words? Longing, Rust, Seventeen, Dawn, Stove, Nine, Goodness, Homecoming, One, Wagon? I complained.
Hey? Wait, Dawnwatch, Hearthfire, Dragonborn...... I'm afraid that the old rolling production team is mixed with the fans of the Winter Soldier.
[It is not clear what it is, as it was carried out in Mora's 'Alien' plane, and the cultists who sent it only knew that there was such a thing, but they did not know the details.] γ
Well...... The hapless cultist, who was ordered to find the Dragonborn, was directly arrested by the Snow Man guards, and it seemed that Bargulf had interrogated once, and finally decided to detain these two guys who felt troublesome just by hearing about them, and it was useless for them to confess everything they knew.
"So, is there a way to eliminate it?"
[If you eliminate it, it will be discovered, but you can directly invalidate it, but then the blue dragon will always be a rabbit.] γ
"That's it, anyway, the keywords will be known sooner or later, and I'll talk about it when Sophie gets tired of playing."

"Huh-" The rabbit dragon in the surveillance footage that could only "chirp" made a speechless sound when the mark failed, and even Arthur, who was communicating with Lao Pa, glanced back.
"PatunaxβYour Majesty," Arthur continued to talk to Patunax as if nothing had happened, but in a less than pleasant tone, "You once ordered the extermination of humanity?" β
"Hmm-have you even seen such a thing?" Patunax did not deny: "Yes. β
"I only saw the results," Arthur said, "can I ask 'why'?" If you might try to destroy humanity again, I'm afraid I can't trust you unreservedly. β
According to the original setting, Patunax is a general under the "Dragon-Alduin", and he has done a lot of bad things, which is also the reason why Blade Warrior Delphine must let it die, but killing Lao Pa has no benefit at all, it is meaningless for players to grow and rebuild Blade Warrior, and they have to pay for some mercenaries that can be recruited from all over the world, on the contrary, if you ignore Delphine's request, you can learn the skills to strengthen the power of "Unloading Power" and "Breath of Fire" here in Lao Pa, If it's not a full-task obsessive-compulsive disorder, you basically won't do it.
"What era is it?" Patonax suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
"The Fourth Age, two hundred and one years." Arthur didn't seem to know why, but replied anyway.
"Yes, that's right, the first epoch is followed by the second, third, fourth, right," said Patunax, "and do you know what happens after each epoch is over in the 'Age of Mythology' or 'Age of Dawn'?" β
"Not backwards, I guess." Arthur replied tentatively.
"Backwards, forwards, futures, and returns, no one can be sure of what will happen until it really happens, and the only certainty is that after the end of an 'era,' this uncertainty will recur," Patonaxton paused: "In the myths of humans and elves and other races, the descriptions of the age of mythology contradict each other, and sometimes even create fundamental conflicts, because the time of that era is not continuous." β
"Hmm...... So why did you order the extermination of humanity? Arthur was surprised, but his purpose was not misguided.
"Because it's actually a 'chaotic era' that I used to think of as the 'Constant Era'." Patunax said.
Arthur, who was thrown out of a new concept of "......", seemed to have nothing to say.
"The 'Eternal Era' is characterized by its long duration, stable environment, and the ease with which it can form a unified and great empire and enter into a new 'Constant Age' when it falls apart and is re-established, and a large part of the mythology during this period is anecdotal of the Holy Spirit," explains Patunax. The end of the world's end, it doesn't make a difference whether the demon god interferes or is swallowed by Alduin, during the period of chaos, no order will exist, the Holy Spirit will not come out, the demon god will be everywhere, and the myths about it are almost all full of demon gods' torment of humans or other inhabitants. β
"Although the Dragon Empire seems to be in order, due to the presence of the Dragon Priest and the Dragon Emperor, those humans are actually 'tortured', which I didn't realize until I found out that the 'Devourer of Worlds' showed signs of awakening," Patonaxton paused, "The extermination of humans, or the extinction of dragons by rebellious humans, as long as they are not devoured by Alduin, can enter the next 'Eternal Era', but unfortunately the war has reached a stalemate, and in the end, Alduin has awakened." β
"So......" Arthur looked around.
"Yes, this is where the final battle took place," Patunax nodded to the half-missing monastery down the hill, "'Banishment of Alduin' is the end of the never-before-seen one, and the history of the Dragon Empire has come to an abrupt end, and the mighty dragons have suddenly turned into dry bones in the dragon's grave, and if I leave the heights of Hosga, I may become like that, you will think that you have been exchanging history with a human Graybeard, and my dragon tomb has long existed." β
"No, I won't." Arthur said in a confident tone.
"And the one who completely ended the Mythical Age was an Elven King, 'Ali-Ai', who overthrew the human empire of that era, established the Elven Dynasty, and officially advanced the 'Mythical Era' to the 'Elven Age', and the original human race disappeared on the continent until Sgramer came from the north with his comrades." Patunax shook his head, "After that comes the Age of Humanity as you know it, but even now, I'm not sure if it's really out of the Age of Mythology, or if it's just a 'Constant Era' that has lasted too long. β
"Words of evidence," Patumnax bared his teeth in the direction of the mountain, "it is now the Fourth Age, thousands of years have passed, but is there any difference between life and battle, clothing and housing, from the First Age and the Mythological Age?" β
ββ¦β¦β
'Is that true?' Listening to history class was a bit silly, I turned my head to look at the stupid system: "So, those demon gods haven't actually done nothing, they have already destroyed the world many times with their 'doomsday element'?" β
[People who have lived for too long sound very reasonable, if you meet the jewel in the world of Fate, he will definitely be able to fool you into thinking that you are patient zero, and then I will play dead again, hehehe~]
'Don't learn Cicero!' β
[It hurts! Woowoo...... Yes! Discover Alduin! γ
ββ20:33ββ
On the snowy eastern border, a hole in the fight between Arthur and Sacroniel connects Covanjond, and because it is a new tomb that has never been discovered, adventurers, explorers, and tomb robbers come together to create many conflicts.
In order not to collapse, they set up barricades to block the passing of pedestrians and vehicles, and the conflict further intensified, and finally when the quarrel turned into a brawl, the Imperial Legion and the Storm Cloak were discovered at the same time, so the passers-by scattered, the adventurers entered the cave, and Ricky and Stonefist fought the right opponent at the wrong time and in the wrong place.
"Die! Dragonborn! As if the scene wasn't chaotic enough, as the tension between the two sides was about to erupt, huge black wings obscured the starry sky, and the dragon-al-Auduin descended from the sky, gathering in a heap towards the edge of the battlefield, blocking each other's path, and the noble carriage that had not had time to leave spewed out hot dragon breath.
It was an unusually large dragon's breath that enveloped almost all the carriages, and even if there were magicians in them who could hold up magic shields, it would not be enough to protect everyone, and I complained that the stupid dragon was running in the wrong place and was about to find a way to save people, but I saw a black light flashing on the carriage that Emir was in.
γPure Consciousness: Realm of Emptinessγ
No physical breath was cut off in the air, and it was gone.
