Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Seven: Tears of the Wind Helmet City

In most of the world of sword and sorcery, the mage has always been considered the most lethal weapon of all solo classes, and is the perfect weapon for warfare. If there is any class that can cause the most damage with the strength of a single person, it must be a non-teacher.

In this class, which is built on the principles of arcane law, there are too many elemental skills that exist for one-to-many. Cut off a large number of inferior lives in an instant, and destroy everything with a sweep...... This is the posture of a mage in war. For the most part, the profession is imaged as nerds sitting in towers reading books and doing experiments, but if they want to, then inflicting a lot of casualties is nothing more than a gesture.

"Hmm...... According to my calculations, it should take about fifteen minutes for the cutie to kill my boss. That means I still have time to have a cup of tea, or change my clothes first......"

[uh...... Ah Jing, I'm already rushing here at full speed with Mr. Tovdil. Other than that...... Cutie? 】

"It's Mr. Lu...... We used to call each other nicknames. I like to call her cute when she's not present, and when I'm there, I'll call her Mr. Lu, or a friend of the road......"

[In other words, is she really your girlfriend?] 】

"Ex-girlfriend."

【………………】

"What, are you angry?"

【……………… No. 】

Communication was cut off.

Talking about your ex in front of your current girlfriend is one of the most dangerous behaviors in any world...... Su Jing began to wear the "Demon Hunting Twilight" power armor. The black streamlined power armor fits perfectly to his body epidermis, and the multi-layered exterior armor combines strength and fire resistance. The well-designed joints have a level of flexibility that normal power armor does not have...... In the position of both fists, Su Jing deliberately set aside a position for the "gluttonous" metal long whip.

This time the battle is likely to be more dangerous than the previous duel in the catacombs. He knows Lu Lu Mengyao's character. I will go all out every time. When she makes up her mind to assassinate Ufrik. Storm Cloak, then she will complete her task in one go.

In fact. The use of each other by the two may have begun when they recognized each other in the catacombs. At that moment, Lu Mengyao had already confirmed that the man on the other side would not really kill her. After that, she set the most daring strategy, which was to deliberately be plotted and treated as a prisoner, and the places where she was imprisoned were nothing more than two, or another base set up by Su Jing for some consideration. Or Stormcloak's headquarters, Stormhelm.

Either way, she'll get a glimpse of Su Jing's true plans, as well as the possibility of wrecklessly wreaking havoc and wreaking havoc on the Storm Cloak as she escapes.

For adventurers with superior destructive power, such an assassination is the way to go. Ufrik. The Storm Cloak is the soul of the Resistance, the true core. As soon as he dies, the new power that bears his name will immediately crumble, and the second person under him, Garma. Stone Fist is a vengeful old man, and may be an excellent battlefield commander, but he is too simple. Never have the ...... of Ufrik The mind of a politician.

Ufrik. The Storm Cloak was once captured by the High Elves of the Ancestral Divine State during the war, and after that, the High Elves had secretly contacted him through this relationship, hoping that he could become a secret agent of the Ancestral Divine State, an undercover agent, or something, at least inclined to the Ancestral Divine Prefecture. And not the empire. The latter has always been in an ambiguous attitude, neither accepting nor rejecting.

Ufrik. A massive rebellion by Stormcloak in Skyrim Province. In favor of the Ancestral Divine State, the High Elves are happy to see the civil war in the Empire. Large-scale internal friction. Because of this, Ufrik received secret assistance from the High Elves - ironically. The purpose of the Stormcloak is to restore the glory of the empire and drive the elves from the continent once and for all. And as long as Ufrik repels the Empire's counterinsurgency forces and fully grasps the power of Skyrim Province, then he can free up his hands and completely deal with these High Elves.

Both sides are knowingly using each other and trading in the dark. And in this incident, it can be seen that Ufrik. The kind of true statesman's mind and city that Stormcape has, and that's what Garmar does. An ability that Fist of Stone does not have.

And Garma. Fist of Stone will never have the opportunity to think about this kind of issue again.

On the gray stone floor of the palace of the kings, a large amount of blood spread.

Truth be told, ordinary magical killings don't cause this kind of blood-soaked situation. Whether it is fire or lightning, they incinerate the body of living beings through heat, and in doing so, they steadily incinerate the life force of living beings. Under the powerful lightning spell attack, the internal organs are severely damaged, and there will be obvious traces of heavy bleeding in the mouth and nose.

The soldiers of the Stormcloak lay on their backs, and a delicate women's boot stomped on one of the swords with a thud.

Lu Mengyao wore her light gray robe, buttoned up with a sapphire brooch at the neckline, and under the simple robe style, there were countless magic circles woven with transparent silk threads. This is not only a piece of clothing, but also the most valuable magic item on her body...... One. A precious gray cloak "Arcane Traveler" with a constant variety of protective spells, an item she custom-made exclusively with a seven-star master smith.

Beside her stood an elemental creature of swirling storms and stones—a storm elemental. This is also one of the elemental lifeforms that can be summoned by the summoning system in the Skyrim magic system, and on top of this, some lower-level demons can also be summoned, and even some people who have explored the mysteries of the world can summon some powerful demon gods...... And that usually represents another "experimental accident" that will be recorded in the spell book.

Generally speaking, a single storm elemental is enough to rival a small squad of experienced soldiers. If you add a destruction mage with rich combat experience, then it represents the terrifying destructiveness and destructive power...... And Lu Mengyao is enough to prove this theory.

"Please, Garma. Mr. Stonefist. Tell me, where is Lord Ufrik? ”

"You treacherous villain......!"

Ufrik's best field commander wields his massive steel hammer. Her eyes were full of anger and she glared at the female mage in front of her. The other party's calves were exposed under the robes, and he used high leather boots made of fine leather. It was inlaid with nails and iron bars, as well as several large gems and corresponding runes. Another powerful magic item......

"I'm afraid you don't need to judge whether I'm treacherous or not." Lu Mengyao pulled out a large book wrapped in a metal shell from under her robe, dipped her saliva and turned to one of the pages, "Since you don't want to say it, then...... I'll take a look, mind control spells on this page......"

"I'm sorry, but I think that's all there is to it, cutie." Behind her, a black Chrono armor stood silently, striking behind it. A pair of huge wings are spread. "Garma. Mr. Stonefist's life is not an area you can touch. ”

"Tom. Sue! Bloodless, isn't she your handmaiden?! What's going on?! "Garma. Stonefist roared angrily, "What did you do with bringing this evil mage in?!" Was this premeditated?! You wicked traitor! ”

"............" After two seconds of silence, Su Jing shrugged his shoulders and said, "I have changed my mind, you should kill him." ”

"As you wish." Lu Mengyao sneered and pointed at Garma with the ruby staff. The stone fist and the end of the staff condensed into a large fireball, and then quickly flew towards the commander of the storm cloak. In the next second, the strong man in the bear's skin undoubtedly turned into a corpse.

"Now. I think we can talk about the next step. Su Jing said lightly.

“…… All right. So, what do you want to talk about? Lu Mengyao used another staff to release a bolt of lightning that turned the few mid-level officials in the storm cloaks who ran out into coke.

"It's really not easy to find a mage with enough strength for the entire upper echelons of the Slaughter Cloak, and my Sadako is too soft-hearted on the one hand. On the other hand, her spell strength is insufficient. So...... You just happened to be in front of me, and I always felt that we were a match of heaven, and it seems that this idea has been confirmed once again......"

The man in power armor took a step forward. The female mage, on the other hand, took a few steps back at the same time with agility.

"You don't think, in the task of such confrontation. If both sides are secretly cooperating, can they grab more benefits? Let's say a pause in war. Use the power of the entire legion to gather information on all the magical items - or hunt the dragons...... I know that the rewards for this quest may be tempting, but compared to this, it is not inferior to being able to maximize the amount of wealth that can be captured in the entire Skyrim Province. ”

A very convincing condition indeed.

If it were a different person, then it would have been feared that this was a conspiracy and a ruse. But it is precisely because of the similarity of thinking patterns and the trustworthiness of the other party's character that Lu Mengyao can seriously think about the other party's proposal.

"That is, I'll help you destroy the upper power structure of the Stormcloak, so that you can intervene in it for a short time, and then you can control this legion in some way - I guess mind control over Ufrik?"

"That's right." Su Jing smiled, "I think if it's yours, then it's more appropriate to use that unfortunate widow, the current acting supreme king of Skyrim Province, Queen Elixiphus, as a breakthrough. ”

"I don't need you to remind you of that." Lu Mengyao bit her lip and fell into deep thought, "So, how will you decide the winner when the time comes?" ”

"Let's set the rules of the game." Su Jing smiled, "In about three minutes, Sadako will come here with the envoy of the Mage Academy, Master Tovdil. At that point, he and I will join forces to stop you, the assassin who has infiltrated the palace, in front of Lord Uffric...... Then, you don't have to worry about the rest. ”

"By the way, pull the Mage Academy into your chariot? Then my chips are ......"

"The ring of the snow will be. All are excellent fighters. If you can do it, then the killers of the Dark Brotherhood can also be yours. ”

"You have the mage and the ...... Thieves' union. Marven of Rift City. Black Thorn is in trouble. ”

Su Jing showed a flawless smile.

"Of course. In the next game, both sides have to have equal pieces. ”

Neither side mentions a third-party adventurer, the pro-Dragonborn adventurer who can influence the entire situation - the Thousand Nights Lion's Roar. And at this moment, the two chess players who thought they had the situation in their hands did not realize that the real shadow was approaching......

"Deal." Lu Mengyao moved her wrist, "Then, let's take the first step first." Helping each other gain military control on both sides is a prerequisite and obligation of the game, and I don't think you have any problem with that. ”

"Basically, no. So, let's take it one step at a time. Let's deal with the Stormcloak officials in the kings' palaces first. Su Jing made a "please" gesture, "Powerful mages with hostile forces, please continue your killing." (To be continued......)

PS: I wonder if there will be some readers who think that there was no update yesterday......

Yesterday's update is the outer part of the public part, Su Jing and Lu always on the rooftop of the game, a total of 10,000 words...... After I finished writing, I was so tired that I fell asleep for twelve hours......
