Chapter Forty-Eight: Revisiting the Old Place
"Who is stronger than the crow ghost woman or the werewolf?"
"Usually, of course, it's the crow ghost. Even an outlier like you is defeated. ”
"No wonder the comrades-in-arms have never come to them to stir up trouble. Are there any other side effects of becoming a crow ghost woman besides becoming ugly? ”
"Except that the Soul Source will be transferred to King Didra - this is only a very inconspicuous price for them, only good and no harm."
Musk's answer makes me wonder, according to the style of the demon gods, aren't they more inclined to engage in a zero-sum game to empty the gloves of the white wolf? Besides, if there is really no harm in becoming a crow ghost woman, then why is the number of crow ghost women in this world so scarce?
"That's because their efforts are negligible compared to what the Didra kings have received. If the witches wanted to gain the power to impress them, they had to come up with sacrifices that would impress the kings of Dedra. ”
I see. Noticing that Musk's statement was "the kings of Dedra", I quickly had a new problem.
"I heard you say that the amount of power needed to transform the crow ghost woman comes from multiple demon gods, so how should the sacrifice of the crow ghost woman be distributed?"
In fact, the kings of Didra both cooperated and competed with each other. From time to time, they would gather in one of their fields for a meeting to discuss their new game plans, and everything would be settled there. ”
"Uh, how did this supposed secret come about?"
"Because I've had an invitation from them to come to a conference."
"What do they talk about at the meeting? How to destroy the world? ”
"King Didra may have a boring life, but at least they don't have the same brain problems as the villains in your movies and TV shows on Earth. 'Nairn' means Arena of the Gods, you should get the idea. ”
Well, Nairn Planet turned out to be an online battle platform in their eyes?
----------------------------------------------------------
The trip finally came true, and the haze in our hearts was swept away, and the two of us talked and laughed, leading the horse to walk slowly on the avenue in the snowy territory. Before I knew it, I noticed that the environment in front of me was very familiar, whether it was the Coldfall Temple perched on the snowy mountain in front of me, or the fortress abandoned by the attack of the dragon in the distance.
"...... you brought me here"
"Investigation and simulation. I need to pick a suitable location for the reels to launch and conduct a preliminary experiment. ”
"Is there anything special about this?"
"It was in this place that you first appeared in Nairn."
The blood of the wild has been eradicated from me completely, but some changes in my body have been preserved forever, including the keen senses. I sniffed hard, and there was indeed a faint smell of blood in the air, but the original messy battlefield had long since been cleaned up.
As Musk said, this is the perfect place for him to launch the reel.
"Because of your arrival, this place has been opened up a passage for space travel. Although the traces left by the passage are about to heal, if you can follow this old path, the cost of connecting the two worlds will be greatly reduced, and the success rate will also be greatly improved. ”
Greatly reduced, considerably improved, these two words came out of Musk's mouth, basically representing 100% confirmation. The thought that it won't be long before I can return to my homeland on Earth is hard to hide my joy.
This unexpected trip left a lot of feelings on me, and it also left me with a lot of baggage.
I was amazed by the magnificence created by the Holy Spirit, amazed by the mysteries of the supernatural phenomena and existences, and awed by the ancient history of the Nords.
I have made many friends and companions, such as Uncle Musk, who guides and teaches me like teachers and elders, Lord Balguf who cares for me very much, Lydia, my guard who takes good care of me, and all the members of the Brotherhood who fight side by side...... Xie Lu thanked them for the unforgettable experiences they brought me these days, and I will always miss them.
I've helped a lot of people, the little couple in Creekwood, the priest of Akai and Ginalais, the Red Guard guest who trekked through mountains and rivers to hunt down traitors, the young Nord whose family grave was desecrated, and the little girl who aspired to be the greatest merchant in Skyrim...... I don't know what kind of image I will be in their hearts.
There are also many people who have suffered misfortune because of me, the victims of the Helgen Fortress, the farmer who was killed by the clowns, and the hundreds of members of the Silver Hand who were slaughtered...... Among them, I think the most indebted are the comrades-in-arms. However, the silver hand is on the verge of disbanding under the chess game I have set up, and the blood of the wild has a way to crack it, and now the comrades-in-arms and I finally owe each other.
Although I still have reluctance, I don't regard this place as my true home after all, and it is enough for me to leave footprints in this world without leaving regrets. When I return to Xueman this time, let me say goodbye to them one by one.
I let go of my body and mind and let Musk channel the power of magic into my body, activating the strange symbols engraved on my body.
……
"How? Is there a play? ”
The heavy load on my body was suddenly removed, and I wiped the sweat from my face and opened my eyes. Seeing Musk's serious expression, I asked him about the results of this attempt.
"Good news, bad news, which do you want to hear?"
Hehe, the earth still uses rotten jokes to play...... But I have a bad feeling that asking such questions generally means that bad news is more important than good news.
"You'd better get it straight."
"This experiment is still far from my expected results, but fortunately, with the power of an artifact, I can still achieve my goal."
If this sentence refers to good news...... Whew, as long as there is no problem with the theoretical feasibility, it is acceptable.
"The bad news, is it that this artifact is currently in the hands of some powerful and difficult to negotiate King Didra?"
"No, that artifact is in my hands," Musk denied my conjecture, he stared at me seriously and asked me a question, "The question is, do you know what the Tao is for this test is different from my expectations?" ”
Judging by the way Musk looked at me, it seems that the reason lies with me. Soon I came to a conjecture, "It has something to do with the scrolls on me?" ”
"It doesn't matter much, the real key is on yourself."
……
"So you must be prepared to stay in this world for a while."
Musk told me that The Elder Scrolls are fragments of creation, and that no matter how otherworldly the information recorded on the scrolls is, it is likely that the carrier of this information is likely to be part of the Holy Spirit's body at the beginning of creation. Now that the carrier of the message has changed to me, although the joint crossing has given me a certain affinity with this scroll, there is still a world of difference in nature.
"So what should I do?"
"First of all, you need to find a vehicle that is strong enough to carry this capacity. Then, find Alduin and convince him to re-etch the scroll pattern on your body through its breath. Finally, you have to make sure that you are not blown to ashes by this breath of dragon breath. ”
It's a laughable and frustrating answer. Well, that's not the worst-case scenario, at least Musk told me a solution, although I'm confused about how to implement it.
Since the contents of the scroll were successfully engraved on me, it is not impossible to carry out this process backwards in the future. But for the next period of time, I must continue to stay in this world and return to the circle of snow man, and I will most likely stay in this world for many years to come. From now on, I'm afraid I can't look at this world with the mentality of a tourist.
Thinking of this, I called out to Uncle Musk, who was about to part ways with me, "You haven't told me what Wild Blood is going to have unique symptoms on me. ”
Uncle Musk also seemed to be interested in this question, and he immediately held his chin and meditated for a while, and came to an opinion.
"In Nairn, humanity was created by Ginareth and is a race favored and blessed by the Holy Spirit. On Earth, human beings have overcome all obstacles and fought their way through the evolutionary war of species that lasted for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years to get to where they are today. ”
Musk's conjecture made me suddenly realize.
Although too many of the traces left by nature have faded, the animality is still deeply engraved in our genes, and it is no wonder that my flesh is so sensitive and eager for the power of wild blood. But on the other hand, it is by virtue of the light of reason that man emerges from the dark and primitive years, so that human reason has long been disgusted with life like the "Helsing's hunting ground", and instinctively resists and rejects the power of the wild.
That's why I'm so easily carried away by the wildness when I transform into a werewolf, but I'm also able to exert more power than Ella and Skoyue; After the transformation is over, my body and brain will be caught in an irreconcilable confrontation due to the aforementioned contradictions, and I will have to drink Ella's blood to delay time.
It's ridiculous that I've been thinking about conspiracy theories all the time, thinking that there is something behind the scenes, and I really think of myself as a green onion. Ay...... Let's talk to Krakodo more when we get back.
"Heersin is going to be very interested in you, and I think he'll come to you one day. But you don't have to worry about that, the Dragonborn bloodline will protect you to the fullest. ”
Musk said goodbye to me, and he was going home to get the artifact he was talking about. I'm going to go straight back to Snowy City and then make the next step.
