Chapter 12: The Dragonborn Awakens (3)
"Hey, that's right." Looking at the scene in front of him, Bernardo smiled heartily. He turned to Hyliga, "See, this is what you are in...... Part of our power. ”
""We"?"
"I've already told you about the peculiarities of the Dragonborn, you already understand it, right?"
"The peculiarities of the Dragonborn...... Is it......" Heliga remembered the explanation of the young man on the other side just now, "the human body, the soul of the dragon ......"
"That's right. In Tamriel, dragons are essentially fragments of time...... Therefore, dragons cannot be killed by mortals. Only one dragon can kill another dragon...... Then absorb all its knowledge and fuse his soul...... Or splicing, whatever you call it. The dragon that held your body just now is one of the Elder Dragons whose soul I once absorbed, Minimenil (1). ”
"You mean to say that besides him, there are other dragon souls that you ...... Absorption? ”
"Of course." Bernardo snapped his fingers, and several more beams of light appeared out of thin air in the dark world, converging around the two of them, "These are all "me" and a part of "us"......"
"This ......" Seeing that there were more and more unformed light clusters around him, Heiliga felt an inexplicable pressure: "These ...... It's all your power? ”
"My ...... Now it's yours too. Bernardo spread his hands: "Although I don't know what the actual situation is...... But it seems that I cannot really appear in your world...... You should appreciate this power. ”
“…… At the end of the day, you still won't tell me what happened and what your purpose is, do you? ”
"Not yet." Bernardo shook his head, "There are beings in this world like 'Akatosh'...... For now, don't get too much of their attention. Like I said, don't use it until you're comfortable controlling it, because it's not good if it attracts unwanted attention. ”
"Really......"
"Yes...... Oh, by the way, it looks like it's time for your consciousness to return to its essence. ”
With the wonderful light, the scene in front of me gradually became illusory, ethereal. His consciousness quickly disappeared from this unknown dark world.
"Do you think that's the right thing to do?" Heliga vanished, leaving only Bernardo and the dragon souls wrapped in light in the void. And his words were addressed to the latest dragon soul to appear.
"Who knows. It's up to you, Ismir. The dragon soul named Minimneil whispered.
"There seem to be our compatriots in this world. Shall we check it out? Bernardo asked, "Take advantage of that mortal." ”
"'Compatriots'?" "Did the master of this realm imprison our countrymen in the same way that Morag Barr imprisoned Boziikkodstrun (2)?" ”
"I don't think it's like Barr made the Didra Titans...... "Bernardo rubbed his forehead, "it looks like our compatriot volunteered...... That's what the giant wolf said. ”
"Really?" Minimneil snorted softly, "It's up to you to decide. We just have to listen to you. ”
"Thank you...... However, it all depends on the mortal. ”
"He's not a monstrous ......mortal like Nellos and Jett (3)," Minimenil muttered, distrust and skepticism between the lines.
"I don't see anything special ......about him either," Bernardo shook his head and smiled wryly, "but since it's the prophecy of The Elder Scrolls......"

"By the way, Minimenil, how is his body? You didn't use it badly, did you? ”
"It's fine. Although he is a young human, he is stronger than most mortals. I've got some power in control. ”
"Didn't you give him any treatment?"
"There's no need for that. The humans here can heal him. ”
——————————————————————————————————————
"He's really badly hurt." The anxious voice of the woman came.
"Is there a way to save him?" It was the voice of a middle-aged man.
"There are varying degrees of damage to the bones all over the body, probably due to overexertion...... For some reason, though, these bones are repairing themselves at an alarming rate...... The muscles and internal organs were also badly damaged, and I could handle these. ”
"No, Archbishop, the effect of ordinary healing techniques is not very obvious, you see......"
"Okay, I'll take a look." Another male's voice and footsteps could be heard in the distance.
“…… Go get the coat of arms, or I'm afraid there will be no ......" After some inspection, the archbishop sighed.
The nun left in a hurry, leaving the bishop and the man behind.
“…… You hunters, even such a young child was sent to battle, didn't you? "The archbishop's voice was very harsh.
"No...... This time it was just an accident. The man scratched his head and smiled wryly.
"Volcan, don't forget that you promised me, and it is precisely because you told me that you aim at ordinary and moderate adventures, and not those who kill countless people by any means for money, that I will be willing to help you!" The archbishop's voice raised a lot, "But such a young child...... Such a serious injury...... Tell me, what the hell did you do? ”
"Archbishop, the coat of arms has been brought." The nun's voice interrupted Volcan's defense. The archbishop glared at him disapprovingly and took up the coat of arms of the church.
"Obsidian of Time, Obsidian of Illusion ......"
……
"He woke up."
"Ah, eyes look good."
"It was just a spontaneous twitch of nerves. You see, there is no light in his eyes. However, it is a sign of improvement. ”
……
"Oh my God! He survived! ”
"Give him some water to drink, and be careful not to choke on him. Then go and call Volcan. ”
……
"What? He's gone? Left only letters? This idiot ......"
……
Darkness, endless darkness. His consciousness was close to nothingness, and it was just the occasional hot pain from all over his body, telling him that he "still exists".
Still alive? I guess I'm alive.
The "he" in Bernardo's mouth knocked down the hunters, right?
"I'm running out of potions, so I'll have to configure another batch. You go and inform the archbishop. ”
Archbishop? Is this the church?
"The archbishop is not here, he has gone to the town to rescue the old man who has had a heart attack."
"Then it can't be helped. Wait. ”
"By the way, isn't there all kinds of strange bottles and cans in the child's package? Do you say ......"
"That's what you say? The archbishop had identified those things, and he said he didn't know what they were. To be on the safe side, it's better not to move. ”
……
Fall asleep.
(1) Minimenil, the dragon that attacked the Snowman West Watchtower in the main quest of The Elder Scrolls 5, the first dragon soul absorbed by the protagonist. It will be strengthened a lot in my book, and interested readers can wait for the follow-up.
(2) Boziikkodstrun, the Elder Dragon, was imprisoned by the demon god Morag Baal as the prototype for his subsequent creation of the Didra Titan. It is precisely because of its existence that the dragon in the old roll and the dragon in the trajectory can be explained together.
(3) Jet, that is, Brother Ebony, a certain Red Guard Sword Master, one of the easter eggs of Lao Luo. There is no name in the game, I added it.
In the next few days, I should make up for the 3K I owed yesterday~
