Chapter 326: Son of the Gods
ββ¦β¦β
Ellie sheathed her knife and jumped into the block.
The knowledge in the books constantly calls Ellie to explore, the dark nature eats away at all reason and reason, and once the contents are known to those who should know, then they have already taken the ladder to godhood.
However, the cover of this book is so ugly that readers who do not understand its essence will naturally regard it as rubbish, or even an evil artifact rather than knowledge.
ββ¦β¦ That's what Mora wants? β
"No, judging by the books you've read before, it used to have it.
It's just that now it's placed here as a reward for his servants. β
Stroking the book cover, Ellie felt the touch of subhuman skin, although the condition of the air drying and abrasion after treatment made a big difference, but even so, the skin felt different.
ββ¦ According to the blood that Septin implied Halfina to collect before, it should be the corresponding human skin. β
"That is, this will be the skin of the High Elf, Wood Elf, Dark Elf, Snow Elf, and Forsaken Elf?"
Stroking the stitch lines on her skin, Erlie was lost in thought.
The cover is made up of rough green skin, relatively silky brown skin, gray skin that is crumpled beyond straightening, yellow skin that still has the slightest remnant of magic even now, and black skin that exudes the smell of death, and the back of the book has no stitches, but the corners are decorated with armor.
Judging from Xiaobai's inference, what really holds books together should be the tendons of some subhuman creatures.
ββ¦β¦ If that's true...... So are orcs also elves?
Also, this chest was made by the dwarves, how did the dwarves get their hands on it? whereas
Why did Septin finally imply take the method of mixing the blood of these five spirits?
So, dwarves aren't what I literally mean, they're elves too? β
"One problem disappeared, and two new ones popped up......
The world is not as simple as we think. β
However, Xiaobai urged Erlie's body to open the book.
In any case, there is knowledge in it, and it is likely that it is the most, if not all, knowledge of this world.
ββ¦ If memory serves, Hermanes Mora is the god of knowledge and fate, who rules over all knowledge throughout the ages. β
"It's very similar to your kind, but will this kind of knowledge directly break your common sense and lose your mind."
"Which one?"
ββ¦β¦ Nothing, open the book. β
The dwarves' understanding and exploration of the gods, as well as the mysteries of this world, were reflected in the lines of ink into Ellie's eyes.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"The Elder Scrolls ......"
After spending a lot of time on the dwarven instruments and adjusting the position of the canon, Halfina stepped up the stairs and took out the tool she had to obtain to travel through time and spaceβthe Elder Scrolls.
The scroll is as good as new even after many years, and the power of time and space is hidden within the scroll, which the Gounods use to banish Alduin into the future, and the last dragonborn need it to obtain the ancient dragon's roar.
Patonax mentions that traveling through time is not impossible for The Elder Scrolls, but it requires a place where time and space are weak and easily torn.
That is, the throat of the world, the summit of the Hogarth Peak.
ββ¦β¦β
Halfina knows a little more about the dwarves than Elle, and in essence, the dwarves still use magic, but the steam and mechanical core of the race are the most unique on the entire continent.
Elevators, mechanisms, and pipes, as well as robots powered by soul stones that could move on their own, really shocked Halfina, she had no idea that there would be such a place in a place where the Nine Holy Spirits were believed.
If Elle had been here, she would have described it better: in a world where gods exist and magic is rampant, these dwarves are playing with technology with their swords.
Although dwarven technology is still essentially for magic, it is not bad in the current way.
ββ¦β¦ It's so cold."
On the land back down the elevator, the cold wind and ice crystals blew on Halfina's face again, but the heat brought by the dwarf technology made the Nord get used to it, and it was indeed a little uncomfortable to return to the ice and snow again.
ββ¦β¦ Anyway, I've been through a lot these days..."
Carrying the Elder Scrolls behind her back, Halfina looked at the weapons at her waist, and the heavy steel armor.
A month ago, I was still farming in Hammer Province, and my biggest dream at that time was to marry a strong, brave, and somewhat smart husband, and then guard the farmland left by my parents, and live so plainly.
And now... I didn't expect that I would be a dragonborn now, and now I still bear the responsibility of not destroying the world, and what several people have experienced in different lives has experienced in my current life.
To be honest, as a Nordian, it is very exciting, even if you die, it is enough to let yourself enter the temple of Songard; But as a woman, Halfina herself felt that unless the world was in crisis again and needed the help of the Dragonborn, she would have absolutely no interest in traveling through this world.
"If possible...... Let's go home when all this is done..."
But if you think about it carefully, you are also a nobleman on this side of Skyrim, although the actual power and strength are equal to zero, but with this, you should also be able to buy some real estate, and then continue to live on the Hammer Fall side.
Anyway, as a baron, he naturally has a much more comfortable life than a commoner, at least he doesn't have to spend a lot of time on tax collectors and guards, and it is too troublesome to send these people away.
β¦β¦ But then again, as a baron, you might be harassed by more upper-class people, right?
"Really... What are you thinking..."
Get rid of the distractions in your head, now is not the time to think about these, if you defeat Alduin, you will naturally have time to think; If it fails, it's even simpler, without Songard and without the Holy Spirit. Everyone is done playing together.
Alduin once claimed to himself that he was the eldest son of Akatosh, the dragon god of time.
From what is known so far, the Dragonborn possess half of the Dragonborn's Soul, and what Graybeard and Patumnax, as well as most of the books, know that once Alduin reappears, the last Dragonborn will have the power to defeat Alduin.
In other words, he has the blessing of the dragon god of time, Akatosh, in order to prevent the world from being swallowed up.
But on the other hand, is Alduin a god or a dragon?
If it were a god, the Dragonborn would only be a human with the blessing of Akatosh, and, judging by the title of Eater of Worlds, and the fear of the Demon Gods, especially Gon, Alduin is beyond the imagination and resistance of humans.
However, Patunax said that Alduin and him were brothers, and since they were brothers, then Patunax was naturally the heir of Akatosh.
But... Patonax's strength is definitely not comparable to the power that devours the world, at most, it can be said that it is the most experienced and intelligent among the dragons, but it is definitely not the level of destruction of the world.
So......
Is Alduin, who he is facing now, the devourer of the world that he is destined to face?
