Chapter 148: Progress

"Well, the question now is, how do you find this 'Winterhold Helmet'?" Su Jing cut off the communication, and couldn't help but hold his head in his hands, thinking about this question painfully.

Now he realized that this task was only given such a term, and there was no clue at all. Unfortunately, I know almost nothing about the history of this place, so I can't deduce from the historical sources which tomb this item may be buried in. The scariest thing was that because he had played this game in college before, he vaguely remembered that the location of the items for this quest was random......

After saying goodbye to the Thousand Nights Lion's Roar and Angelina the Dragonborn, he left Greybeard's monastery and walked thousands of steps down the hill to the exit of the mountain, a small village called Ivasteide. The people here are familiar with the monasteries on the mountain, and there are people who regularly send food supplies to feed the mysterious Greybeards.

Su Jing was sitting in a tavern in this small town, using a few small gold coins in his pocket to buy some food and the famous mead of Skyrim Province.

What should be done with a mission without a clue? Su Jing thought as she sipped the mead.

First of all, there are two possibilities for this Winter Castle helmet: it is still buried, or it has been dug up, but it is scattered around.

To confirm this matter was very simple, Su Jing briefly asked the owner of the inn, they were specialized in this information collection work. The innkeeper came up with a large list of wanted mention, including the extermination of bandits and the elimination of giants...... These are bounties issued by the lords of the realm, and the service workers who have the most contact with travelers are responsible for spreading these bounties out of the realm.

"Wintercastle Helmet? Let me think. Why don't you ask the bards over there? If they don't know what to do, you can go to Rift City. It was the center of the entire Skyrim Province's underground power. If you can find the right person, then ...... You can find all the information you need there. Other than that. Wintercastle's things, maybe there will be corresponding records in the Mage Academy. ”

Su Jing copied the contents of those wanted notices, and also got a notice of the side quests, which were all side quests that were too small for him to be too lazy to take, and the rewards ranged from one hundred to three hundred general points. Anyway, by the way, I can do some of them.

The reward for the Winterhold Helmet isn't very generous to be honest, and maybe it's about the same as the generic points you get from killing some bandits. However, Su Jing is very concerned about the underground thieves' union in Rift Valley City, the thieves' union here has been entrenched here for many years, and it should be very familiar with the distribution of tombs and treasures in Skyrim Province.

After questioning the bard. The other party came up with a less precise answer. The guy holding a harp frowned, indicating that he had heard about the Wintercastle helmet some time ago. It seems that the artifact has fallen into the hands of a gang of robbers who are preparing to sell it for a good price.

The best place to sell stolen goods in Skyrim Province is Rift Valley City, there is no doubt about it.

After asking, Su Jing walked out of the hotel and took out his tablet to check the map. The map was taken from when he had taken a picture of Ufrik's military map when he was in Stormhelm City. Ufrik's map isn't particularly accurate, but it's good enough for everyday travel.

"Sadako? Now you go to the library in Winterhold and look up the records about the Winterhold Helmet, and it's better to find more information about the catacombs and ancient legends. I think these are all 'points' that can trigger side quests. ”

[Understood, on the way.] 】

Su Jing tied her boots tightly. Then he jumped casually on the ground a few times. In the case that the electromagnetic angel system cannot be used for the time being, he is not skilled enough to use the gravitational fabrication device to use it to fly, so, so far. He still has to walk on two legs.

"Maybe you can use the jump-glide mode to move forward, like those fun urban sandbox games......" Su Jing touched his nose.

Rift Valley is about a day's walk from Ivasted, but at Su Jing's running speed. Then he can reduce this time to a quarter. If you use wings to glide, then this number can be reduced by half.

After moving the muscles and bones of the whole body. Su Jing jogged. At first, just trotting along the main road to Rift Valley City, like a workout. Then he gradually began to accelerate until the wind pressure could be clearly felt, and then he tried to spread the wings behind his back, using it to feel the direction of the wind, and then using the angle of the wings to maintain balance......

Thirty seconds later, he kicked the ground with his legs hard, his huge wings flapping, and flew in a strange position in the air about five or six meters above the ground for a few seconds, and then quickly fell.

"Damn, that's why I'd rather develop a geomagnetic force device than practice flying for the sake of what I want!"

After a while, there was the sound of huge wings flapping.

"Ancient myths and legends...... Ancient Myths and Legends......"

The library of Winterhold Academy is run by an eccentric and irascible old orc named Urag. The old orc of Glo-Shub claimed that this was his realm, as if the demon god were in charge of its realm of annihilation, but this was only a rhetorical modifier, of course. Only by repeatedly assuring him that you will take good care of the books can you borrow suitable books from him.

Sadako Yamamura sits at a desk dedicated to reading, with a large pile of books in front of her. Thanks to the almighty World Realm Hub, which automatically translates words and languages, so that every adventurer can read different words, otherwise these history books may just be confusing books.

After more than an hour of cursory rummaging, Sadako Yamamura sifted through a few books that might be useful. And among them, there was a book that caught her attention. This book chronicles the lost lore of Skyrim Province and focuses on three magical items that may have the potential to be discovered and the stories behind them: the "Red Eagle King" of the ancient Rich, a defeated rebel leader buried in the ground with his flaming sword; A ghost known as the Pale Lady wandering the swamps. Some say that this evil spirit will abduct a lost girl, while others say that her crying can kill a person's soul. In this book, the author examines in detail the story behind the legend of the "Pale Lady". She is a mysterious woman known as Amerel, a descendant of the ancient Nord king Usgrammer, who has fought against her for many years and sealed her as the last one.

Pale Lady ...... It's kind of like me...... A smile appeared on Sadako Yamamura's lips and she continued to scroll down.

The last chapter of The Lost Tales of Skyrim is devoted to a legend called the Gordo Amulet. In fragments of history, the author deduces from certain clues that there was once an archmage named Gordo in the history of Skyrim, who was just and wise, and that both humans and elves would seek his help. But, unfortunately. Gordo was murdered by his three sons. The Enraged King sent his best warriors and his chief mage Gelmund to exterminate them, while Gordo's three sons fled with their father's powerful amulet, and a chase began, from the western region of Ruichi to the icy lands of the north, where the three sons of the mage were separated on the way and killed by their pursuers in three places.

In order to prevent someone from opening the seal in the future to find the Gordo amulet and release the three evil spirits, the king Harald at the time ordered all the deeds of Gordo to be destroyed from the books. Gordo and his three sons disappeared into the history of Skyrim.

Just after Sadako Yamamura finished reading the book, a notification sound from the system came to her head.

【Open a side quest. The Lost Legends of Skyrim Province]

[Mission 1: Find the Red Eagle King's sword.] Reward: Three-star item card. Sword of the Red Eagle】

[Mission 2: Find the Pale Lady's sword.] Reward: Three-star item card. Pale Sword]

[Task 3: Find Gordo's amulet.] Reward: Three-star item. Gordor's Talisman】

[After completing all three missions, each member of the squad will receive 5,000 universal points.] (10,000 points in total)】

【…… Well done, Sadako. I'm almost there. Here I can find more side quests, since the adventurer who supported General Tullius is also studying on your side, then we can conclude for sure. At least for now, the stalemate between the Storm Cloak and the Imperial Army will continue for some time. During this time. We can do our best to grab the resources and rewards that can be obtained in this story-based world-are you listening? 】

"Well, I'm listening." Hearing Su Jing's praise. Sadako Yamamura let out a sigh of relief, her eyes focused on Lu Mengyao, who was sitting next to another row of bookcases, where the female mage was using a well-advanced looking phone to scan the contents of the books while reading.

Sadako Yamamura glanced at it slightly, and the female mage was reading some specialized books on the principles of magic and the history of spells. The thought of learning spells herself, Sadako's stomach felt a little uncomfortable.

"Uh...... What do you want me to learn about spells? ”

【…… It's up to your liking. What do you like? Department of Destruction? Change? Summoning? Illusion? Or is it a recovery system? 】

"I want to try all the spells of these systems first, and then choose the one I am more talented to learn from."

[Good plan, good luck. 】

Sadako Yamamura cut off the communication, and a pale yellow glow gradually lit up in her hands, one of the simplest spells she had learned from here, the most basic healing technique. It can speed up the healing speed of the caster's body, and judging from her current experiments, it may be because she is born with the superpower to control the amount of life force, and she has an extraordinary comprehension of this series of spells. Moreover, the healing technique released in her hand is also more powerful than the healing technique released by others. Probably because she is more sensitive to vibrations......

Lu Mengyao, who was sitting opposite, finished typing the last book, and closed the heavy book with a snap. Facing Sadako Yamamura, she smiled and said softly:

"Come with me for a walk, okay?" (To be continued......)
