Now that we've talked about the reaction to Hestia's disappearance, I'm just taking this opportunity to talk about the current state of a certain world a year later...... So let's turn our perspective back to Hestia, who is now at a loss. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After reading the diary left behind by someone who didn't know why it turned to ashes, Hestia, who was still in a state of panic deep down, did understand a trace of what was happening here.

Hestia, who was originally a god, knew very well about the dragons recorded in the diary, after all, there were indeed dragons in the original world (the setting of the game). And if it was a giant dragon, it would indeed be able to cause such terrifying damage, after all, even if the strength of that group of flying lizards was weak, even if it was just a sub-dragon species, it was not an existence that ordinary people could fight against.

But the knowledge of the dragon also made Hestia feel a little question: why did the dragon attack this town?

You know, while it seems that something very important happened in this town at the time, but that was only for the human race, or for the ordinary race. For creatures like dragons, which are born in high positions, it is really difficult for ordinary races such as humans to have any important events that can be related to high-ranking races such as dragons.

Unless, that guy named Ulfric Storm Cloak, who was captured~ and killed by what appears to be an Imperial soldier, has a contractual relationship with the dragon who is making trouble here......

Just as Hestia was barely calming himself down and thinking about this, suddenly a loud noise came from his side, and an inexplicable wave appeared behind him.

"Scared!"

Startled, Hestia immediately turned his head and found that a young dragon with a body length of no more than five meters had appeared behind him, which was equivalent to that of a newborn dragon.

Before Hestia could prepare for battle, the young dragon spoke in a familiar voice, "I am Snow Wind, Hestia. ”

The familiar voice, coupled with the familiar fluctuations emanating from this young dragon, but Hestia still couldn't believe that this young dragon could actually be Snow Wind!

After all, Xuefeng's identity is the God of Creation (setting), not to mention that although Xuefeng is also a dragon, it is not a flesh and blood dragon, but a mechanical dragon based on black!

"Don't be surprised, it's just my incarnation, and the main body didn't come."

As if sensing Hestia's doubts, the young dragon explained. Then, Xue Feng said to Hestia in an extremely serious tone: "Although I have noticed a little problem before, I didn't expect the situation here to be so serious. ”

Subsequently, Xuefeng said an extremely terrifying fact, that is:

"The timeline of this plane is collapsing!"

When Hestia wondered if Yukikaze was real, he was startled again by this sentence. Although he hadn't learned anything about time, Hestia still knew exactly what would happen if the timeline collapsed.

For the plane, what time represents is the highest order! And what makes time the highest concept of order is the timeline!

Birth, Childhood, Adulthood, Old Age, Death...... The concept of combining these points in time is called a timeline!

Once the timeline of the entire plane collapses and time falls into chaos, then the catastrophe that will occur will not only lead to the chaos of various eras, but even more terrifying, all beings will not be able to determine when they will die and when they will be born!

But the catastrophic consequences of a timeline collapse are not limited to Hestia's thoughts.

If it is one of those fantasy planes that can be repeated over again, it is better to say that those planes generally have an indefinite number of alternate timelines of varying lengths due to the chaos of time, but for the planes where the past is certain and the future is forever uncertain, once the timeline collapses, it means the collapse of the entire plane!

This is an extremely dangerous assertion, but Xue Feng can absolutely guarantee that there is not a trace of error in what he said!

As an existence that can completely claim to be the master of time, just an incarnation, Xue Feng can still easily touch and perceive the timeline of the entire plane. If you really want to say it, doing this is actually similar to instinct for Yukikaze.

Therefore, Xue Feng can clearly judge what kind of state the timeline of this plane is in.

After perceiving the timeline state of the plane, Yukikaze knew why the plane had summoned Hestia directly here, and tried to get his attention.

Although I had noticed a little before, I didn't expect the situation here to be so serious. However, what was originally just a few random hands has now become the key.

Probably due to the distortion of the timeline of the plane itself (the birth of the time dragon god Akatosh), the hole left behind was discovered by the aftermath of destruction, which is also known as sin. In other words, it is precisely because Sin appears at this moment (from Alduin, who was exiled from the past to the future), and it is precisely this moment when the timeline changes that Sin can successfully erode the main timeline of this world!

But the reason for all this is not important at the moment: "But you don't need to worry about this now, or it is useless for you to worry." The time dragon god of this world, it seems that the guy named Akatosh, at his own expense, has barely strengthened the timeline so that it will not collapse like this. My task is to constantly fix the timeline that is starting to break down. ”

"In order to fix the timeline, I, who am just an incarnation, can only talk to you in this form now."

Now, most importantly, "the Dragonborn has died, the predetermined future and the definite past have been thrown into chaos, and the timeline has begun to crumble at both ends from this moment." (The Dragonborn returns to the past to learn Dragonbreak, thus determining the trajectory of the future on the timeline)

"In order to truly repair the timeline, there are two things we need to do, one is to kill the bearer of [Sin] (that is, Alduin), and the other is to ensure that the timeline can move forward correctly (it doesn't matter who it is, but there must be someone who meets the conditions of the Dragonborn to go back to the past and learn Dragonbreak)."

"And your task is to ......"

After being silent for a while, Hestia, who finally understood the meaning of Yukikaze's words, exclaimed in surprise: "Huh! Do I have to ......?"

"That's right, in place of the dead Dragonborn, in this era everything that was predestined in the past."

Hestia hurriedly refused, saying, "However, I'm not a dragonborn! And I ......"

Knowing the snow wind of Hestia's past and present lives, he can easily guess the second half of Hestia's sentence without thinking about it: "I don't want to fight at all, or I don't have any ability to fight, right?" ”

In this regard, he didn't care about doubting whether Xuefeng was real, and in order to keep himself from carrying such a "heavy" mission, Hestia nodded desperately.

"Don't worry, none of these problems are a problem." Xue Feng suddenly changed his words and asked Hestia, "Will you be my apostle, Hestia?" ”

"Apostle?" Hestia was surprised by Yukikaze's question, but still replied, "Is it an oracle?" If it is the oracle of the creator God, then I don't have any opinion......"

"In that case, then from now on." Before Hestia finished speaking, Xuefeng, who had received a definite answer, said directly to Hestia: "You will become my apostle, in my body, with my strength, in my name, walk in the world!" ”

After Xue Feng's short words were finished, although there were no external fluctuations, Hestia could clearly feel that his soul seemed to be watched by some incalculable being, and then a special contract, under his inexplicable nod, built a passage between the two.

In the next moment, like a mortal becoming a priest of the gods, Hestia successfully perceived the realm that Yukikaze had mastered (please refer to the rules of the DND for priests): time, magic bow, magic, bow and arrow, swordsmanship, commandery, machine, and war. (Hestia's skill tree, of course, is very different from the skill tree in the game.)

And from this, it was confirmed that the young dragon in front of him was indeed the snow wind he knew.

Indeed, after becoming the supreme god in the OG world, the system or as the legion leader of the underworld, Xue Feng automatically mastered some abilities as if he was born, one of which was to throw his own incarnation to another world as before, and then this is now the same as a god, choosing others to become the apostles who walk in the world instead of themselves.

The scope under the jurisdiction of each legion in Hades can be said to be ridiculously large (the whole world), even if the legion leader can be called a real monster, just like the war princess Vier, just a trace of consciousness incarnation ~ emotional fluctuations can cause natural disasters. But it is impossible to keep an eye on all the territories in one go, and the subordinate legions, as the strongest direct jurisdictional forces, basically represent a major event that affects the entire world, not to mention that it is completely a waste to monitor the territory.

Other troops generally have their own tasks, and such things as patrolling the territory are completely unnecessary in the eyes of monsters of the level of the commander of the Hades Legion. Rebellion? If someone really can challenge the Legion Leader, it will be the one thing that the Legion Leader is looking forward to the most.

But this does not mean that the patrol territory is not important, as its own jurisdiction, no matter how you say it, you must ensure the normal operation of this area. And sometimes, a small thing doesn't mean it will turn into something big enough to affect the whole world.

Therefore, the apostles who are independent of the legion and are on par with other mortal troops, but in special periods, they will obtain the command authority of relevant units other than the legion, as an extension of the will of the legion leader, and the apostle who patrols the entire world on behalf of the legion commander came into being.

"The Dragonborn is a fragment of the soul of Akatosh, and therefore the human dragon soul. In other words, it is precisely because of the human body dragon soul that it is called a dragonborn. Akatosh, who is now holding the timeline in place, is unable to separate his soul fragments, which also causes the timeline to collapse in an irreversible state. ”

Regarding the matter of the Apostles and the Dragonborn, Snow Wind explained to Hestia lightly:

"Hestia, your current soul has not become a true dragon soul, and it still retains its original form. But as my apostle, your soul is still indistinguishable from a dragon soul to outsiders, even to true gods. Therefore, it can completely replace the original dragonborn and complete all the predetermined things. ”

"And, as you complete the predetermined tasks in this world, that is, the tasks I have issued, you will also continue to receive my favor in the process of completion, so that you will be able to access more and deeper areas (i.e., upgrade points)."

"As a god yourself, you should know very well what a priest can get from a god."

Hestia was well aware of this: even if he was powerless, if someone became the chosen priest of the gods and could visit more and deeper realms than others, then that person would become a legend in the world.

But even though he knew that he could indeed have great strength after becoming the apostle of Yukikaze, Hestia, who was still unwilling to fight, or Hestia, who was afraid of fighting from the bottom of his heart, still wanted to refuse.

However, Yukikaze didn't give Hestia a chance to speak, and then seemed to be comforted, but for some reason his words were full of sadness and anticipation, "Moreover, I didn't intend to let you fight alone. ”

"Lost souls, in the name of the snow wind, manifest in the world."

With the chant of Yukikaze, a small whirlwind suddenly swept through the air, and then a broken soul appeared in front of Hestia and Yukikaze.

This soul is the last dragonborn to die here for some reason, and because Akatosh is in a very special state, he is unable to control this soul fragment, and at the same time, this soul fragment cannot return to Akatosh. I don't know if it was because of being attacked by Alduin, or because of my own loss, which caused this soul to be extremely damaged.

In other words, the soul cannot become a ghost, nor can it be awakened, or even cut off from resurrection.

"Broken souls, reinvent yourself with the spirit of a hundred dragons."

But with an inexplicable fluctuation, it peeled away from Xue Feng's body and covered the broken soul. Under a burst of golden light, this soul gradually turned into a miniature version, exuding a brilliant seven-colored light, not so much a soul as a dragon with the highest crystal.

"O soul of the dead, in the body of my daughter, be born here!"

"My daughter, from today onwards, your name will be Bailong."
