—4E, 201, Last Seed, 24th, 23:00 —

The Gallows Rock Fort looks as dilapidated as other abandoned ancient castles, although it seems to be occupied, there is no sign of bandit or necromancer activity, and it is marked as a "suspicious fortress" in the intelligence of Moonwaska, but after the battle of Dastman Stone Mound, these "suspicious fortresses" are regarded as the hideout of the Silver Hand, and the comrades-in-arms are ready to send scouts to conduct detailed reconnaissance, and the place that Cisco Moon and Ella are in charge of has obviously won the lottery.

"Even if I saw it with my own eyes, I still wondered why they turned into vampires," Ella turned around and swept a member of the Silver Hand who pounced on her towards Arthur with a flick of her tail, "that way, the lords of the places can't simply declare them 'illegal' and do nothing." ”

"I guess they might have some purpose that requires 'eternal life,' and that's it." Arthur slashed the swept silver hand with a sword, and watched him turn to ashes.

"Huh, like killing all the werewolves?" Ella glanced at the entrance hall of the fortress to make sure there were no living mouths before continuing to walk deeper: "I think it's better to kill all the vampires faster. ”

"Well, that's true." Arthur followed with his sword.

Unlike the "wild" vampires, werewolves are strictly "mastered", and werewolf disease comes from the "beast" realm of the hunting god Helsin, and it is said that there is still a "bear man" in Morrowind Province, but the tiger people and the argonians do not belong to this range, they are a race.

If you want to eliminate all of Nairn's werewolves, you have to eliminate the demon god Helsin—and at least that priesthood realm, which the vampires can't do.

"I heard that you were there when the dragon attacked Helgen, and you saved everyone," the scattered Silver Hands in the fortress were not a threat at all, and Ella began to chat with Arthur as she advanced, "You must have called that dragon, Mr. 'Dragon Lord'." ”

"Before I was bitten by you, I was just an ordinary hunter," Arthur shrugged, "Maybe the Dragonborn's bloodline has been stimulated and awakened?" If I encounter that dragon again, I won't let it go. ”

"yes, yes, an ordinary hunter who can easily kill dragons and absorb dragon souls—" Ella said as she pushed open a door in front of her, then froze.

"How?" Arthur rushed into the room a few steps forward to block Ella, "This is ......"

The leather racks, the workbenches, the firepits, the carcasses of wild beasts, and the piles of leather, if one were to look at the craftsmen of the snowman, they could say with certainty that this was an ordinary leather factory, though the material was all wolf skins a little strange.

It's just that the werewolves in cages around them, as well as ordinary humans in shabby clothes with confused faces, all prove what is actually going on here.

"According to the information, there is a powerful 'werewolf hunter' in Silver's hands, and his title is 'Leathermaker', I didn't know what that means......" Ella shrugged her nose and turned her gaze to the other exit of this leather factory: "He's dead." ”

The huntress bowed slightly, then rushed out like an arrow off the string.

"Wait—" Arthur was about to release the werewolves and humans who had not yet turned into werewolves, and had to hurry after him.

————

"Ah, two lost wolf cubs, have you seen my leather yard? Are you happy with your new home? ”

In the deepest part of the fortress, there was a very bright hall with a large number of torches, in addition to the members of the Silver Hand who had escaped from the upper floors, there were more than a dozen archers with bows aimed at the door, and the one who spoke was a tall man in silver shining armor standing in the middle of the hall, with several silver weapons scattered at his feet, holding a silver one-handed sword in each hand, looking at Ella and Arthur with a victorious expression.

"It's fitting place for you!" Ella deftly dodged the flying arrows and swooped down on the "tanner".

"Bump!" "Ahh

Although Ella managed to get close to the "tanner", before she could make any attacks, the silver light flashed on his armor, and the huntress was knocked back with a cry of pain.

'Haha!' How does anti-werewolf armor feel? The tanner laughed, "As the richest silversmith, I have enough materials to make such an armor, and when you unarmed wolf cubs attack me, you will be like slamming yourself into a silver weapon." ”

"Damn, I didn't bring a bow or arrow." Ella attempted to attack one of the archers, but was chased away by the silver arrows flying from the other archers.

"Nice armor," Arthur began, "but you probably just made it and haven't used it yet." ”

"Anyway, it works well, doesn't it? Hahaha! The tanner continued to laugh.

"What's the difference between being a vampire and wearing silver armor and putting yourself in a coffin?" Arthur saw the tanner's face change, and continued: "Oh, sorry, the coffin seems to be your sleeping place, so it's like jumping into the fire yourself. ”

"Hmph, do you think I didn't think of it? This armor is silver-plated, and it is ineffective against myself. The tanner retorted loudly, but his movements were still a little distorted, and he was clearly beginning to think about what would happen if he accidentally touched it.

"How, you'll find out by trying." Arthur inhaled slightly and yelled at the tanner, "[Fus] Ru Da! ”

"Bump." "Ahh

Due to the distance, the strong wind pressure only caused the tanner to stagger two steps, but he himself became suspicious of the armor because of Arthur's words, and fell to the ground with his feet in the air, and a puff of black smoke and screams came out of the armor.

Obviously, the spit from the ghouls is meaningless, and there is still only one that works, but it is enough for now.

"Kill them! Kill them! The tanner tried with difficulty to get up, and at the same time gave orders to the archers.

"Pin down the archers." Arthur hurriedly instructed Ella, then raised his sword and charged at the tanner.

Boom, boom, snort! "Uh-uh!"

Although the archers wanted to attack Arthur at the mercy of the command, they could not ignore Ella, who had already killed her, and at this time the huntress showed her third werewolf trait besides her ears and tail - six claws as hard and sharp as steel protruding from the back of her hand, both the archers' bows and their necks, all of which were broken in two, and the archers were too busy to interfere with Arthur's assault.

"Ha, ha-" The tanner gasped, but finally stood up, holding a double silver sword in his hand, "You wolf cub can roar a dragon?" But it doesn't matter, as long as you're a werewolf, don't try to beat me! ”

"Even if vampires and werewolves are rivals, there is no reason to desecrate each other's corpses like this," Arthur looked at the position of the tanner with his sword in both hands, and hung the two-handed sword behind his back, "Therefore, you who did that kind of thing, don't want to die a happy death." ”

"You're crazy—" "Bang! Before the cobbler could say anything, Arthur punched him in the chest of the silver armor, and a puff of black smoke came out of it again.

"Impossible!" The tanner's eyes almost popped out: "Why haven't you been bounced back!" ”

"Heh, it's really silver-plated, and there are tiny spikes on the surface of the armor," Arthur looked at the tip of his fist, and there were silver flashes of silver light, "but it won't work for me." ”

"That's right! He's our secret weapon, 'Anti-Vampire Werewolf'! Ella, who was chasing the archers, didn't forget to answer.

What kind of weird werewolf is that? Speechless, Arthur continued to punch the cobbler.

"Don't think I'm going to get beaten and won't fight back!" After a few more blows, the tanner seemed to be furious at Arthur's contempt for him, and swirled wildly in place with his two one-handed swords: "Die! 'Anti-vampire werewolf'! Hahahaha! ”

"It's a storm of blades!" "The Boss Can Win!" There were few silver-handed soldiers left to cheer for the cobbler.

Isn't it a bit unnecessary to treat the silver hand as an opponent so solemnly? Arthur looked at the small whirlwind of silver light in front of him, frowned, turned around and picked up a handful of silver hands scattered on the ground and swept it to the ground.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Ahh

"Anti-werewolf armor? Well? The tanner tried to get up several times, but Arthur knocked him to the ground, and finally snorted and stopped getting up.

"Arthur, get out of the way, I'm going to give him some color," Ella, who had cleared the halls of the fortress, came over murderously, "Well, but you'll have to strip him of this armor first." ”

"This guy can't be killed for the time being," Arthur shook his head at Ella, "You should understand that this kind of guy in charge of property, whether human or otherwise, is very afraid of death, and we need to get the hidden treasure from his mouth, as well as other information about the stronghold and plans for the near future." ”

"This guy with a problematic IQ?" Ella approached and kicked the cobbler who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead with her paws: "Tell me, you don't know anything. ”

"I know everything—" Black smoke rose from the armor, and the tanner cried, "but I have to see Krako Whitemane to say it!" ”

"Krako?" Arthur thought for a moment and looked at Ella, "Could it be that if he promised not to kill this tanner, everyone wouldn't do it?" ”

"Cut~" Ella tilted her head to the side.

"It's a pity, but it's true, and we won't violate any decision made by the old man." Cisco Moon's voice sounded in the background.

When Arthur looked back, he found that he had led in the humans he had not had time to release, and these humans seemed to be emotionally unstable, and when they saw the corpses of the silver hands all over the ground, they either gritted their teeth and cried twice.

"Although some of these people still have families, when they were captured by the Silver Hand, it means that all relatives and neighbors know that he is a werewolf and completely homeless," Cisco nodded to Arthur: "You guys go back first, I have to escort them to the hunting sanctuary in Helsing—besides, the transformation is quite handsome." ”

"Ha, of course, it doesn't matter who bit it." Ella said proudly.
