On Southam Island, the Silent City side, led by Ferina, secretly collects Heart Stones in various ways, while the sacrifices and followers of the New Dragon Worship Cult have shrunk from the Temple of Mirak and entered a strange period of peace, and the panic caused by the cultists has just begun to spread on the continent of Tamriel, which is separated by a sea.

On the 25th of the frost month, the day after the cultist attack, Lina and her mercenary team returned to the Snow City with the passage warrant issued by the Dragon Night Palace, and Lina and her party passed through the outer city unimpeded, entered the Snow City without hindrance, and then went to the Dragon Night Palace under the leadership of a guard, and reported the results of the mission to the head of the guard, Ireles.

Despite receiving a lot of money, Ireles also agreed to let Carl and the others study in the White Horse Army and the Mage Regiment, but Lina's brow never let go.

From the time she saw the low gate of the outer city of Xueman City, until she entered the Dragon Night Palace, what she saw and heard along the way made the girl's heart heavier and heavier, and the oppressive atmosphere in the city also made her feel suffocated.

The most depressing thing is, of course, the "cultist attack" a few days ago, in which a total of 273 people were killed and thousands were affected in Snow City, in addition to hundreds of houses were destroyed, and the economic loss was as high as millions of gold coins.

What is the concept of millions of gold coins? For example, the Xueman Mall under Bellettol, if it is not a black market transaction, the monthly turnover is only one or two hundred thousand gold coins, and the large chamber of commerce that wants the Arrow Chamber of Commerce to cover the entire Skyrim Province and is actively expanding to other provinces, the monthly transaction volume is only nearly one million gold coins, and if it is put into the entire Xueman Territory, it is a tax for half a year, a number that is enough to make the entire territory hurt.

In addition, the refugees from New Loristed also arrived in Snow City yesterday, and the news brought by these refugees made the residents of Snow Man City even more frightened, but fortunately, the news from Ximu Town calmed everyone down a lot, and now the atmosphere in the city is depressing, but there is not much panic.

In addition, when the mission was handed in at the Dragon Night Palace, Lina also heard more news from Ireles, and was generally optimistic.

More than 300 residents of New Loristed were bewitched, but on the third day, they were found and rescued by Farndal in Ximu Town, and more than 300 people were rescued except for more than 20 people who were completely brainwashed and converted into fanatics.

The situation in other territories is also similar to that of the Xueman Territory, the legendary powerhouses who guard the city have rushed to the aid of various settlements in the territory after solving the threat of the city, except for a small number of people who have been completely brainwashed and cannot be rescued, most of the bewitched people have recovered themselves, and in the northern provinces, the territory with the most losses is only more than 800 people who died, compared to the disaster of the blood clan a few years ago, this is already a good ending.

Moreover, because of this cultist attack, the entire continent has defined the New Dragon Worship Sect as a cult, and due to the experience of the blood disaster, all cities and settlements will not only refuse the cultists to enter, but will also kill the cultists they see as soon as conditions permit.

This tactic proved to be effective, and for two months after the first pagan attack, not a single settlement was attacked again by the cultists.

The news she heard from Irelais made Lina feel a lot more relaxed, but the depression in her heart continued unabated, and she always felt that something bad was about to happen, which made her uneasy, until she walked into the headquarters of the Arrow Chamber of Commerce in Snow City, Lina was still thinking about what she had missed.

This feeling lasted until midnight, when Lina was about to fall asleep when a scream suddenly reached her ears, and the ensuing bad news finally reminded her of what she had missed......

Wiping the blood from the long knife, Auston showed a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at the guards who were attracted by the screams, he did not panic, but swaggered over, and those guards also let him go out as if they didn't see him, and even a guard waved at him, telling him to leave the area quickly to avoid injury.

This is the power of the artifact!

Feeling the power slowly surging out of his body, the smile on the corner of Auston's mouth became a little bigger, if nothing else, tomorrow he could still receive an objective inheritance as a friend of the deceased.

With his backhand backhanding back the long black knife, Auston turned and walked towards the mare banner.

Yes, Auston didn't leave Skyrim, not even Snow Manling, he was always here, he just didn't return to Silent City.

More than a month ago, he left Lina's team and prepared to go to the imperial capital of Cellodil to develop alone, and he did so, he contacted a small caravan to Phocles, wanting to go to Phocles first, and then find an inter-provincial caravan to go to Cellodiel.

But after all, this was just an immature idea of Auston at the beginning, he just wanted to find a random reason to leave Lina's team first, and then naturally had the idea of going to Celeudiel to develop.

But when he calmed down, Auston immediately came to his senses, he did play the fourth generation of games, yes, but as Isu mocked, the story of the fourth generation took place more than three hundred years ago, and now more than three hundred years have passed, and the empire is no longer the original empire, what can be left of those plots that he is familiar with?

Although the current Skyrim Province is not very suitable for the development of newcomers and does not have so many opportunities, compared to other provinces, he is more familiar with the situation in Skyrim Province and the situation afterward, which means that he should stay in Skyrim Province more safely, so as not to accidentally lose his life.

So, it only took half a minute for Auston to make a decision, and not long after the caravan left Snowman, he broke away from the group again and quietly returned to Snowman City alone.

Out of some kind of distorted pride, Auston did not return to Silent City, and when he was in Snowy City, he tried to avoid meeting with Lina and the others, as if he had left Skyrim Province and wandered alone in Sylodir.

At first, he was in the outer city, but at that time, Auston only had a superficial fire tongue, which was not enough for him to get enough resources, and no one was willing to hire him as a guard, so he had to find another way, and after a month of hanging out in the outer city, his magic strength did not improve in the slightest, but he learned a good pickpocketing ability, and the skill of fraud was also improved.

At the same time, he also accumulated a little wealth, although it was only a few dozen gold coins, it was enough to buy a house on the edge of the outer city and live a good life.

But this does not satisfy Auston, as the days go by, his temper becomes more and more irritable, and he wants to be a hero, a protagonist, and achieve something that will attract the attention of the world, instead of becoming a gangster and spending his days in the gray area of the outer city!

He, wants more power!
