Chapter 6 Hello Grab the Roots
As a war fortress, Helgen was undoubtedly qualified and even excellent, built in the middle of a valley between the peaks, as the only way to climb over the snow-capped mountains, with relatively strong walls, residential areas and numerous fortresses, which could still be successfully blocked even by large invasions.
But now, the fortress that has been held here for many years is in a sea of fire, shouts of killing, screams are endless, and a black dragon is raging in it, and there is no one to stop.
When Lori Alice took Zhang Lin's arm and ran all the way to the door of Helgen Fortress, everything was over, and the two could only see the shadow of the dragon in the distance, and the dragon Alduin flew away after attacking the fortress, leaving only this broken ruin and corpses everywhere.
Fortunately, there was thick snow all the way, and under Alice's violent pull, although Zhang Lin was dizzy, he was not injured on his body.
"Woo, master, it's late, we didn't catch up."
Little Lori pouted and grumbled in disappointment, completely unaware that the owner in her mouth was about to foam at the mouth.
However, Zhang Lin recovered quickly, as if he had not experienced anything just now, and he himself was surprised by the speed of recovery.
Before he could sigh, he heard a voice from inside the gate of the fortress that was still standing, and hurriedly pulled the little Lori to hide behind the bushes on the side.
"General Tulius, Ulfric took advantage of the chaos and fled."
"Damn the dragon, how could this have happened if it hadn't suddenly appeared, and by the way, what about the Somer nobles?"
"As soon as the dragon appeared, they were gone."
"Cut, disgusting cowards."
"General, what should I do here?"
"Give up, the Helgen fortress is in ruins, and the problem of rebuilding is not our business."
As the gate was pushed open by two soldiers, a middle-aged man dressed in Roman-style armor with a dark red cloak on his back and some gray and flat hair walked out of the ruins of the fortress, followed by several soldiers in khaki armor.
The group looked very embarrassed, and a few of them looked like they had been smoked, but most of them were unharmed, as most of the wounded died from the dragon's breath and bite.
The middle-aged man known as General Tulius looked back at the still burning fortress, spat on it, cursed a few cruel words, and walked away with the remnants of the army.
Zhang Lin, who was hiding behind the bushes, finally remembered at this time that this place was the place where the plot of the game Elder Scrolls 5 began.
As a general of the Empire, the newly departed Tullius successfully set up an ambush and captured the rebel leader Ulfric, who had killed the High King of Skyrim, and escorted him to Helgen Fortress to be beheaded, but everything was defeated by the dragon Alduin attracted by the last dragonborn of the game.
"Shhh...... Pain and pain......"
The pain in the palm of his hand interrupted Zhang Lin's memories, it turned out that in order to be afraid that Alice would make a movement to attract attention, Zhang Lin pulled the little Lori to hide behind the bushes and kept covering her mouth.
Little Lori, who was very dissatisfied with her master's behavior, bit down after the group of people were far away.
Shaking his right hand that had been bitten out of his teeth, Zhang Lin looked at Alice's innocent little eyes, and was suddenly cute, and the idea of wanting to teach her a lesson was suppressed again, so he could only press his raised hand on her head and rub it vigorously a few times, but he didn't see the corners of the little Lori's mouth that were upturned like the little devil after lowering her head.
Xiao Lori, who didn't succeed in getting into the excitement, was very unhappy, and didn't know where to take out a green water droplet-shaped puppet and ravaged it vigorously, making Zhang Lin on the side laugh dumbly.
Zhang Lin looked at the fortress that had become ruins, the spreading fire made him feel a heat wave standing outside the city wall, he suddenly remembered something, and pulled Alice, who was still holding the puppet, and walked towards a rising hill.
"Master, where are we going?" Seeing Zhang Lin's seemingly purposeful behavior, Xiao Lori immediately abandoned the puppet, stuffed it into the mage's robe and disappeared.
"Let's go find a big bear."
"Oh, are we going to flatten it?"
Zhang Lin nodded, and received an affirmative reply, and Alice, who was still a little bored, was immediately full of vitality again.
Although there is definitely a difference between reality and the game, but the place where it should be has not disappeared, Zhang Lin quickly found a cave under the small mountain, the cave looks deep, I don't know what danger there is, he is a little hesitant, not sure whether to rush in.
But Alice didn't care about this, she was already interested, she saw the master's hesitation, took Zhang Lin's hand and ran into the cave.
After entering the cave, it is a little different from the dark and damp you imagined, and there is a lot of glowing moss growing on the rock wall, which brings light to the cave, because it is located on a snow-capped mountain at a high altitude, and the cave is actually relatively dry.
After passing through the turning passage, Zhang Lin gradually heard the sound of running water coming from the cave, thinking that he was about to arrive at the place.
Climbing up a small step made of rocks, the two of them came to a wide cave at the corner, on the side of the cave an underground stream slowly flowed out of the rock crack and disappeared at the other end, a huge black shadow in the center of the cave seemed to hear the movement, and was slowly getting up.
I saw that this was a brown bear with a height of nearly two meters on all fours, and if it stood up, it would be like a giant.
That's a lot more than it looks like in the game.
The giant bear had apparently noticed the intrusion of the two uninvited guests, and it roared angrily after being disturbed to rest, trying to tear Zhang Lin and the others to pieces.
"It's up to you, Alice!" Seeing the giant bear rushing over, Zhang Lin, who had no combat power, pushed the little Lori out very undisciplinedly.
Although she was speechless about her master's behavior, Alice was not a vegetarian as a magician, and she saw a thick wooden staff taller than her suddenly appear in her hand.
"Bang!"
Little Lori swung her staff and struck the enraged bear on the head with a stick, smashing the menacing creature to the ground.
followed by a series of beatings, under the attack of the little Lori's staff, the giant bear had no ability to resist, and it whimpered and hugged its head very humanely, I don't know if it was an illusion, Zhang Lin even seemed to see tears in its eyes.
Seeing that little Lori Alice didn't even use magic, and violently bullied this giant bear several times bigger than her, Zhang Lin was almost stunned.
"Clank!"
On the other side of the cave, there was the sound of a sword falling to the ground, and I saw three figures appear around the corner, and I saw the scene of this little Lori bullying the big bear, and the world view collapsed instantly, and they didn't even pay attention to the weapon in their hand landing.
However, this sound attracted Zhang Lin's attention, and he trotted over, and two men dressed in different styles of armor and covered in wounds noticed his arrival, hurriedly picked up their weapons and looked at him vigilantly.
Zhang Lin didn't care about the two of them, but said hello to the ill-fitting silver armor who came from somewhere and wore a full-coverage helmet that couldn't tell the gender for the time being.
"Hello, Grab the Root!"
