My name is Akatosh,

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings?

"Hmph, it's okay for you to follow that black-skinned elf, but on the condition that I have to follow too."

"This ...... Sil......"

"What? That blonde girl, and that laughing clown can go, but I can't? ”

"Hey, hey, hey~ (hearts)"

I looked at the sitcom in front of me and wanted to sigh very much.

Illya succeeds in convincing her mother to "let go", but with her emotional dullness, the ending is already predestined when she says the phrase "That's the secret between Dad and Aunt Kalia".

Gallus was secretive, and what Sylvia must have wanted to know wasn't that complicated at all.

The place of "Dusk Tomb" is the earthly kingdom of the Lady of the Night [Noktunar], and from the internal layout, it is most likely that this thief patron saint was lazy, copied a Nord tomb that I don't know where, and then took it out and used it after a little decoration.

If you want to enter there, it is indeed as they analyzed one by one, you must be able to wander between light and darkness, the reason is also very simple, "Dusk Grave" itself is an exam question for the selection of nightingales, if you want to pass through it, you have to pass through various tests of light and shadow, if you are particularly biased towards one side, it is easy to get stuck before some trials, but you can ask friends who are biased towards the other side to help.

When they first became Nightingale, it was a trial completed by Gallus and Kalia, and Mercer Frey passed it alone, so he obtained the "Divine Favor" or "Nightingale Power" stronger than the other two, so when Mercer betrayed and attacked them, he was in a one-sided crushing state.

Even if you can pass the trial, there are still other problems, stepping into the "earthly kingdom" of a demon god is actually similar to entering his realm of annihilation, it is basically entrusting your life to the hands of that demon god, Gallus and Kalia as the former nightingale, even if they will be punished, it will not be too serious, and Illya, the inheritor of the power of the nightingale, is no problem, but Sylvia is in trouble, the demon god does not care about mortal kinship, in fact, some demon gods, such as Poyesia, are also keen to encourage fratricide- Although this thing has already been taken care of by me, and [Noktunar] doesn't seem to have this nasty hobby.

As for Joan of Arc and Cicero, the "Night Mother" has already sent an oracle saying that she wants to cover them~

[A demon god guarantees the safety of his followers in another demon god's realm, this kind of provocation is second only to a direct declaration of war, right? ] 】

Didn't I declare war all at the beginning? In addition to those who retreated, formed alliances, and were defeated, there were even people like [Noktunar] who hid and planned to make it to the finals, how could he be found out without playing some small tricks? ’

[But if you can't figure it out before dusk, Mercer will go in, and you'll have to wait until tomorrow to open it next time.] 】

'Hmm...... Truly. ’

On the other side, Xiao Fu, Amir, and Parasos were relatively fast, and could arrive before dusk if nothing else, but they missed Delphine and Isbon who were slightly off course.

After the encounter between Mercer and Delphine, perhaps judging from the fact that she was wearing the armor of the Blade Warrior, she had been fully tracked, so she gave up the original short-distance leapfrog movement method and switched to spatial teleportation with a long distance and a long cooldown, directly throwing off the pursuers, but because of this, the "Demon Hand" could clearly locate the location of each of his teleportations, but it would not be lost.

At this time, Mercer Frey is camping in front of a dilapidated Nord tomb with a princess stand-in waiting for sunset, which is very ordinary, and has been fully "cleaned" by adventurers and tomb robbers, and has no value to explore, but when the sun sets, and the last afterglow shines on this Nord tomb, a new gate will appear next to its original entrance, which is the real entrance to the "Dusk Tomb".

Therefore, [Noktunar] can really be lazy, and even the entrance is not his own.

"You, it's too late for you to let me go now," Eddie Septin, although a little panicked, was generally calm, and could continue to play the role of a princess: "If anything happens to me, you-"

"If I fail, you're not going to end much better," Mercer interrupted, "Now that you're here, I hope you know what you have to do." ”

"Hmm......" Since similar conversations have appeared several times along the way, it is clear that this is not a person who cares about the power of the empire or the status of a princess, so Eddie did not continue to argue.

If you want me to say, Mercer's behavior is completely incomprehensible, he stole the things of the demon god, and the demon god has not been settling accounts with him for some reason, and he is not stealing the fun, but he is actually planning to kill [Noktunar]?

[If successful, the new Lady of the Night will have a new artifact, and she won't be worried about his "Skull Key"]

But he also took the [Star of Azura], won't he be 'disappeared'? ’

[Azula seems to have hid for a long time to avoid meeting you—so Mercer's instincts are quite accurate]

Perfectly avoided the demon god positions that were already under my control now, and then went to find trouble with two demon gods who didn't dare to take the lead...... It's accurate.

As for the rest, Arthur and Galeb will have to wait until tomorrow to counterattack the Twilight Zone, and the Emperor will arrive in Skyrim even later, so only the main story on Noctunal's side can follow up for now.

"Sister Joan of Arc? Let's go. ”

I was observing other events and chatting casually with the stupid system, but the people here seemed to be in a daze, so after an initial compromise, Illya came up and grabbed my arm.

"Oh, okay." I nodded in response.

——17:10——

In the end, Sylvia accepted the condition that she was allowed to follow, but did not tell her the specifics, and if she did not pass the "test", she would leave immediately, and Illya could explain to her afterwards.

The "Dusk Grave" was located near Phocles in the southwest, while the Blacklight Tower was on the outskirts of the Rift Valley, and it would have been two days before they had traveled regularly, and although they did not know that Mercer was close to the Dusk Grave, it did not prevent the two former Nightingales from making the decision to arrive as soon as possible via the "Nightingale Hall".

The "Hall of the Nightingale" is located in the mountains south of the Rift Valley, and is much lower than the "Dusk Grave", and although it is possible to communicate with Noktunar there, it is more often used as a secret base for the Nightingales.

Therefore, it is not that the strong man of the Thieves Guild is called the Nightingale, but that the Nightingale has established the Thieves' Guild and allowed the best of them to participate in the trial of light and shadow, and those who successfully pass it can take over the identity of the old Nightingale after retirement - it sounds similar to the inheritance method of the Demon God, [Noktunar] is really a lazy Demon God.

"This is the 'Nightingale's Stone,'" said Kalia, standing in front of a two-man tall black boulder, "and if you touch it, you will be able to see our destination if you have permission to do so." ”

The dark elf touched the boulder, then turned and walked towards the mountain wall not far away, and disappeared into thin air after two steps.

Of course, she didn't disappear, but only passed through a special magic circle, and I could clearly see the entrance to the hall like a casually dug storeroom, and the first batch of nightingales probably went to establish the thieves' guild because they couldn't stand the laziness of the lady of the night.

Although Kalia didn't say who would allow it, or what would happen if he forced his way through, no one dared to act recklessly in this kind of mysterious event that obviously involved the demon god.

"Speaking of which, the first time I saw you, I was around here......" Sylvia glanced thoughtfully at Gallus, and took a few steps forward to touch the black stone.

This black stone is not really a black stone, but a collection of some kind of divine power, if any living creature comes into contact with it, it will look up if it exists in the database of the "friend", if so, it will disarm it from the defense measures of the magic circle, if not, it will continue to look for whether it exists in the database of the "enemy", if so, it will transform the divine power to attack it, if it is still not, it will do nothing.

Of course, this is just the principle, and the black and white list is probably not a database.

Slurp, Sylvia's hand pressed on the black stone, if it was according to the original setting, she must be two nos, nothing will happen, but the problem is that [Noktunar] is a little lazy, this kind of list that should obviously be updated at any time, he actually stored it in the black stone, and the result is that it took me less than a second to remotely control and add Sylvia to the whitelist.

"Heh, is this your secret base?" Sylvia turned to look at Kalia and took a few steps across the magical barrier in her astonished gaze.

"I'm going to play too!" Illya snapped over and touched the black stone, and passed through the barrier without any problems.

Then there was Gallus, who hurried in for fear of a fight inside.

"Hey, hey, hey~ (hearts)" Cicero unsurprisingly refused to enter, but I changed the list anyway and put him in.

[You're going to make trouble? The stupid system said very sharply.

Don't you want to know how the people on the blacklist react when they touch it?' I eagerly reached for the rock, ready to drop it on the blacklist, whether it detected me as "Jeanne Darke" or "Zela Pesh."

[You know, it's just a few ancient nightingale ghosts to attack.] The stupid system replied: "If you want to know, you can also find out, and you don't have to take the initiative to touch it.] 】

'No adventurous spirit at all!' ’

I complained about it as I raised my hand and pressed the Nightingale Stone.

Click-click-boom!

It's broken.

[When I found out that I could change its data casually, I should have known that there would be such a result, right?] 】

I don't know! It's noisy! Shut up!
