Because I don't know whether the name of Alvor, a blacksmith in Ximu Town, is useful here, Hestia directly uses the name of Helgen for foreign exchanges. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, it seems that as a subordinate town of Snowman, the news of Helgen's accident has reached the ears of Lord Balguf.

After hearing Hestia's words, the female warrior nodded, withdrew her sword, and made way to the lord's place: "Oh, that's why the guards let you in. Come on, the lord will definitely want to meet you in person. ”

Without the slightest hesitation or timidity, Hestia led the hundred dragons to the lord of Snowman, Lord Barguf.

This is a middle-aged, weathered appearance, although he has become the lord of a city, but from the body can be seen that this lord still retains quite strong combat power, not only health, but the muscles all over the body can even be said to be strong.

However, this is also the norm in Skyrim. As the hometown of the Nord people, or as the hometown of the old ~ Maozi, there are naturally few male lords here who are cowardly.

What's more, just like the previous Ofregen roared to death the Supreme King in one go, in this world where gods and ghosts exist, if you don't be strong, even if you are the leader of the continent, you don't know what kind of death you will have.

"So, you've been to Helgen? Have you seen the dragon with your own eyes? ”

"The dragon leveled Helgen." Although he didn't really see it with his own eyes, in order to increase the credibility of his words, and to make it more likely to convince the lord, Hestia told a little lie, "The last time we saw it, it was flying towards here. ”

But what if it's a lie? Because that's a fact in itself!

"Ismir is on top, Irelis is right!"

Hearing this news, Lord Barguf, who had already known the news, was surprised, but still kept enough composure.

In fact, there is still a bug here, that is, why would Barguf be so gullible about Hestia, or grasp the root treasure? In order to prevent bigger logic bugs in the game, the dialogue asking why the root grabber is in Helgen has been removed. And in reality, that is, Hestia's body, it is mainly Hestia's Chosen One that plays the role.

Well, the aborigines' natural trust and favorability are worth more than 50 percent, and the closer the position is, the higher the value, and any protagonist deserves it!

This is the reason why after the hundred dragons, Xuefeng still let Hestia take on the responsibility.

"What do you say? Provantes? Then, the lord of Snowman City, Lord Barguf, leaned back on his seat and asked an old man who resembled a butler beside him, "Rely on our city walls to hold on?" Can you really stop the dragon? ”

The female warrior who had previously blocked Xue Feng and the others, who obviously had a fairly high status, spoke, "My lord, we should immediately send troops to Ximu Town. ”

Hestia didn't mention this, and the reason why there are still people who remind this is that after Skyrim was divided into several major cities, not only under the snowy city, but also under the other cities, there were actually not many towns under them, and the others were farms that mainly provided food, not taxes. And at this time, Helgen has been destroyed, and the town of Ximu, located between Helgen and Snow City, has become quite important, both in terms of taxes and geographical location.

"If that dragon lurks in the mountains, now is the most dangerous time!"

This reason is quite sufficient, Ximu Town is indeed surrounded by two mountains, and the danger at this moment can be called explosive.

Of course, the premise is that the dragon is really hiding in the mountains, but unfortunately the dragon is ......

"The lord of Phocres will see this as a provocation!" Hearing this option, Provantus, who was the head of the clan and his assistant, immediately vetoed, "He will think that we are ready to join Ulfric's side and prepare to attack him!" ”

It's also a well-reasoned statement, who made the neutral Snowman City right in the middle of the two factions, and Helgen and Brookwood were close to Rift City on one side and Phokreth on the other side of the Imperial army?

In peacetime, sending troops to the border, to some extent, is already a precaution and a provocation. Not to mention, this state can be said to be on the verge of breaking out now.

And at this moment, Lord Barguf, who seemed to have heard tired of this argument and seemed to have made a decision, roared angrily: "Enough! ”

Provantus seemed to want to say something: "But we shouldn't ......"

However, Lord Barguf interrupted him and made a final decision: "There is a dragon outside burning my territory and slaughtering my people!" I'm not going to sit idly by! ”

Then, Lord Barguf turned his head to look at the female warriors beside him and ordered, "Ireles, send a detachment to Ximu Town immediately!" ”

Irelais said happily, "Yes, my lord. ”

After Barguf made this decision, not only Ireles, but also Hestia and Bailong's favorability towards this lord instantly increased by dozens of percentage points.

Indeed, in the current state of flux, it is extremely irrational to send troops to the border. If you do, you'll only be laughed at by those who think you're smart.

But in fact, those who think they are smart are the real jokes.

Because, what exactly does a lord exist for?

Very simple!

The lords worship the lord, and the lords guard the lords!

This is not even just a human law, as long as there is enough survival wisdom and a creature with its own social class, this law is universal!

The moment the lord no longer guards the lord, the lord has lost everything that the lordship brings. After the fate of these lords, do you need to say anything more?

Even if they can survive this crisis, their subordinates will definitely look for opportunities to escape. And the entire territory will fall into a dangerous situation where a civil war can break out from a random person who is good at speaking.

Aristocrat? When the aristocracy no longer fulfills their obligations, they cease to be nobles, just a joke.

And now, when Barguf really sent his soldiers out to guard the town of Creek, what if he did go to war with Phocles?

There may be people who don't understand and complain, but the vast majority of people, especially those Nords in Ximu Town, will definitely participate in the battle with high morale, not to mention that the group of comrades in the group will definitely stand on the side of Snow City at this time under the leadership of that prophet who has been running out of time. In this state where the military spirit is available and there is no shortage of people, the situation of the battle may change to be honest, but as long as Balguf maintains his sanity, Snow Man City will definitely not suffer a big loss.

If this state is in this state, Snow Man City can be destroyed...... Well, it's no longer a question of trying or not trying, it's the so-called fate.

After seeing that the lord of Snow Man City, the lord of Barguf who served him, had already made his own decision, the old butler bowed behind him slightly and said, "I'm sorry, I'm going back to work." ”

Although his suggestion was rejected, the old butler named Provantus did not look disappointed, but left the lord's side very calmly and began to continue his duties as a steward.

It seems that this Provantus is still very clear and understands his duty, which is to calmly remind the lord to pay attention to those areas that he has not noticed, and if the lord still makes a decision under his own reminder. The steward's remaining duty is to fulfill any orders given by the lord.

Of course, even though he clearly knew the intention of Provantus's constant rebuttal, as a straightforward Nord, Barguf still seemed a little relieved: "That's the best." ”

And when Provantus and Ireles both left the lord's side to complete their mission, Barguv turned to look at Hestia and Bailong, and said calmly, "You have done a good job, and I am glad that you can take the initiative to meet me." You've done so much to the city, and I won't forget you. ”

"This is for you, as a token of my gratitude to you."

After Balguv nodded to the soldiers beside him, one of the soldiers took out a piece of steel armor from the arsenal not far away and handed it to Hestia and Bailong.

Although because of the explosion of combat power at the top, the steel armor forged by this plane at this stage of civilization can be said to be only the lowest-end armor. But at this stage of civilization, the value of a piece of steel armor is actually not low at all, and it can even be said that many civilians cannot afford such an armor.

Therefore, for Hestia and Bailong, such an armor can be obtained just by sending a message...... Well, the Chosen One has made a meritorious service again.

However, it was clear that this armor was just an addition, because not only did Hestia and the others pay attention to it, but even Barguv had no intention of ending his conversation there.

"There's one thing you can do for me, maybe it's a good fit for someone like you who is particularly talented."

With that, Barguf stood up and led Hestia and Bailong towards the left side of the hall of the Dragon Palace:

"Come, let's go find my court mage, Farenga. He's now working on something about dragons and ...... The dragon rumor thing. ”

And just as the three of them were on their way, Bailong, whose five senses were a little more sensitive than Hestia and the others, heard a conversation coming from next door: "I didn't let you disobey the lord, I just let her open her eyes and see." Rhetoric draws his attention to the war, you are his steward, and he will listen to you. ”

"Holongner, don't get me involved in your schemes." It was Provanteus' voice, "If you want to talk to the lord, go yourself." ”

At this, Bailong smiled knowingly, and then he didn't hear anything at all, and his expression was still as flat as usual, and he followed Barguf and Hestia towards the place where the court mage Farenga was.

It is not known what kind of person that Holongner is, but there are people in every organization. This is unavoidable, not to mention that this is not a holy place like a large church.

Even if the unintelligent Bailong heard this conversation, he would not have told Hestia, let alone the lord Barguf. In addition to not being good at dealing with outsiders, the most important point is that Bailong knows very well that this is a "family matter". Hestia and himself as outsiders would be right to do such things.

However, Bailong glanced at the old butler.

But, it doesn't matter at all, does it?

So, for now, let's focus on Hestia and Barguf, oh yes, and a mage named Farenga.

The palace was not large (although the map including the city was magnified tenfold, the volume of the building itself was constant), so it was only a few steps before the three of them arrived at Farenga's residence and laboratory.

In this regard, Xue Feng can only say one thing, the Nords in the sky are really big enough.

What is the most dangerous place in the magical plane? Heaven? Astral Plane? Abyss? Hell?

No, it's the mage's laboratory!

And the more powerful the mage, the more dangerous his lab becomes!

ps: Helgen belongs to Xueman, this will be clear from the map, after the peak, it belongs to the territory of Rift City, and the other side belongs to the territory of Phocles. That's why the Imperial Army chose to ambush and execute Ufreggan here.

PS2: Maybe Helgen is officially part of a different territory? But the setting of this book is up to me!

ps3: The emperor of the Second Empire of this plane was assassinated by the predecessor of the Dark Brotherhood, and then caused a world war (OL's plot). The founding leader of the Third Reich was a Dragonborn who had signed a contract with Akatosh, and as long as the emperor did not die, Akatosh would protect the empire. But in the end, the last troubled emperor of the Third Reich (this guy was the first four emperors of The Elder Scrolls) was still assassinated, and the time came to the Fourth Age, which is now the era. Then, the so-called High King, was again "assassinated" by Ufrigen...... You've definitely negotiated!
