Section 11 Physician Graybeard Al Holder
According to nearby villagers, there are more than three thousand stairs in Mount Denkhrosga. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info From the bottom to the top, the distance is long, and the steep trails, infested with snow wolves and ghosts, and the severe snowstorms make the climb extremely difficult and dangerous, so neither good adventurers nor seasoned hunters are willing to risk their lives to climb the Snowy Mountains of Herrosga and seek advice from Graybeard. Almost no one passes that rigor of the ordeal.
After breakfast, Barbas helped Rex on his way. After half a day, they finally reached the foot of Mount Hrosga. Rex looked up and saw that he was high in the clouds, and halfway up his waist was covered with snow-capped mountains, surrounded by a gray blizzard, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Wow, Mount Hrosga really lives up to its name, the highest peak in the sky. You can't see the top of the mountain from this angle. Rex sighed.
Babas looked at the mountain road and was silent in thought. At this moment, his emotions are quite complicated. Every corner of this mountain is so familiar, and it feels like yesterday to see it again. If you think about it, it has been more than a hundred years since he left the monastery, and Mount Hrosga is called his former residence. He lived here a century ago, learning the magic of the Dragon's Roar with three Greybeards.
At the cost of his studies, he served as a guard at the monastery. Now, he is both looking forward to it and sad to come back to the old place.
"Hey, are you alright?" asked Rex with concern.
Babas woke up from his memories and hurriedly concealed his feelings, distracting him, "No... It's nothing. Let's climb the mountain and go to Master Al Helde to heal your leg injury. ”
"Al Held, who is he?"
"Graybeard, a great physician!"
"Ash... Wildly... "Son," Rex repeated thoughtfully, and suddenly asked urgently, "Can the wise man of Skyrim learn the magic of the Dragon's Roar from him?"
"Absolutely. "Isn't that what you're here for?" said Barbas. ”
"Yes, yes. That kind of magic is so charming, I dream of it. There was a look of longing in Rex's eyes.
"You have the soul of a dragon, and you are the one chosen by the way of the dragon's roar. Graybeard will be more than happy to teach you, it is their life's duty to inherit the way of the dragon's roar, and the future of Skyrim must have an inheritor. Barbas explained.
"What do you mean by picked?" asked Rex.
"You don't know, the magic of the Dragon's Roar is a force, powerful, mysterious, unpredictable, and a gift that requires a gifted person to inherit it. "Only those who have a dragon soul can learn more than three kinds of magic, and ordinary people can only learn one." And I, there is only one more kind than ordinary people. “
"Why?"
"Maybe you forgot, I'm the guardian of the goddess of wisdom. Barbas said smugly.
Rex suddenly realized and nodded. "That's right, I almost forgot. So, what kind of magic do the Greybeards have?"
"Master Al Helde is the leader of Greybeard, and he can breathe whispers, and transform into three dragon roar magics: ethereal and clear sky. You've seen the clear sky, we went to the snowy mountains of Thorn City, and I used it to change the weather. Barbas said.
When Rex heard this, his heart rejoiced.
They chatted and climbed the mountain. The leg injury affected the speed of the climb, but the two were not in a hurry and climbed as fast as they could so far.
"So, what are the other Greybeards called, and what are their characteristics?" asked Rex.
"In the monastery of Mount Hrosgar lived three Greybeards, the wisest prophets in the world. Barbas said. "The Greybeards have been in this world since before the War of the Ancients began, and it is said that they appeared around the same time as the dragons came to the sky. For centuries, they have trained Skyrim's famous heroes to learn the way of the dragon's roar. Fight against all kinds of disasters and evil dragons to protect the peace of mankind. Among them, Al Helde was a physician, as I had just mentioned, and many of the physicians in Skyrim were his students, or students' students. Karlovak Mir is a magician who has mastered four dragon roars: Beast Allegiance, Summoning Dragons, Courage Summoning, and Elemental Fury, each of which is very powerful magic. ”
"What about the other one, what is he capable of?"
"The last Greybeard was a warrior, and his name was Chavik. Very powerful, with three magics: Roar of Awe, Disarm, and Whirlwind. Each dragon roar increases your combat power several times over. If you learn the dragon roar of these three wise men, you can defeat all the powerhouses in Skyrim, whether they are warriors, magicians, or nations. You can easily destroy them or start an era of peace. ”
Rex heard the obsession, and his blood boiled. Although he has been promoted to the elite of the League of Assassins, his combat ability is still at the bottom of the world in the world of Skyrim. Want to become stronger and defeat your enemies. You have to learn a higher level of magic. The way of the dragon's roar naturally became the goal he pursued.
The two of them braved a snowstorm and cliffs, and climbed more than a hundred laborious stone stairs, and finally came to the outside of the monastery. The monastery was built like an imperial castle and was surrounded by a five-foot-high wall. There is a fence and lookout on the wall.
Two large black stone doors separated the two of them. Rex looked closely, and saw that the stone door was polished from a single boulder, and the door was carved with many strange characters, which did not exist in the sky, and more like a spell. From a distance, the stone gate is indestructible and unbreakable.
"We're here, Graybeard's Abbey!" said Barbas with a smile, "you wait for me here, I'll knock at the door." ”
Rex leaned over a stone pillar in his hand and leaned his back against it. The weight of the whole body is transferred to the other healthy leg, relieving the pressure on the broken leg.
Barbas slammed the stone door and called out the name of Master Al Held. About a minute later, there was the sound of looming footsteps behind the stone gate.
"He's coming, I can hear it, it's right behind the stone gate," Babas was agitated, and his speech became stammering. "I... , I'm sure that's Greybeard's voice. He turned his face to Rex and shouted, "Did you hear that?"
He nodded at Barbas.
Rex had an urgent thought in his heart, he wanted to know what the wise men of Skyrim, Graybeard, looked like, and what they looked like. Before that door was opened, he kept sketching images in his mind.
When Master Al Helde appeared in front of him, he was a little disappointed. Helder didn't match any of the other he had imagined, the doctor was short and pale-skinned. Wearing a blue mage robe with a cloak, his eyes and eyebrows are mostly obscured by his hat. The color of the eyes is an unpredictable red, large and beautiful, as if the soul can be exposed undisguised.
The beard is grayish-white, monochromatic but neat. Densely growing around the lips and chin, they are unusually strong, as if to tell an endless spiritual vitality and vitality, hidden deep and difficult to see.
He opened the door and saw Babas at the door, and said with relief, "Oh, it was you, old friend, it was nice to meet you." ”
"Me too. Barbas said.
Al Helde opened his arms, and Barbas greeted him, embracing the Prophet for a moment.
"It's nice to see you again. Helde patted Babas on the back. Then he caught a glimpse of Rex next to the pillar.
"Who is this strange child? a comrade of yours?" Helde asked.
Barbas reacted, "Oh, I'm sorry. They are comrades-in-arms and friends. He saved my life. ”
"Babas, what's going on? You two look exhausted. "Your friend doesn't seem optimistic, he's got a serious leg injury." ”
"He has a broken leg, and I have brought him to you in the hope that the Prophet may heal him. Barbas said.
"Come on in, you need to recuperate for a while. His leg is still too late to be treated, and I'm afraid it will be scrapped if it's too late. Helde said.
Frightened by his words, Rex hurriedly fell to his knees and saluted, begging Al Helder to heal him. Barbas walked over to help him up and comforted him, "Don't worry, Rex. Helde is my teacher, and he will definitely heal your leg, don't worry. ”
Helde then said, "Yes, come in, and I'll take you to the alchemy room." I'd love to help you guys. ”
"Thank you, Master Held. Rex said respectfully.
Helde laughed, accepting Rex's respect and gratitude, and at the same time, admonishing him not to be polite. Finally, lead the two into the monastery. The blizzard is like an angry child, whistling even harder.
Barbas took Rex's arm on his shoulders and limped inside. Rex ignored the pain in his leg and began to observe the scene in the monastery courtyard.
Entering the gate, a long corridor comes into view, flanked by bottomless cliffs. In the hallway, every hundred feet, there would be a circular campfire platform, made of square bricks, with a recess in the center, and inside it burned giant fat, emitting strange blue flames. Helde tells him that the flames not only illuminate the path, but also drive away the wandering spectres of frost.
At the end of the corridor is an inverted conical platform suspended in mid-air, with the tip of the cone propped up on the cliff below. Half of the platform is built with a herringbone low house, in which the Greybeards live. The other half is the garden, and there are eight thick and large stone pillars on the side of the platform, the column body has a groove, the back of the groove is in the shape of a ribbon, and two scrolled sculptures are placed on both sides of the column base, which are close to the columns. There is also an arched bridge at the top of the stone pillars that are connected to each other.
In the center of the garden stands a statue, tall and large. Rex made a closer look, only to realize that the statue had a few similarities with Holder.
The sky was gray, and snow was falling in their collars or onto their clothes. Rex chatters his admiration for Master Held, and vows to learn the magic of the Dragon's Roar.
Helde shushed and stopped him from talking. Stand on the stone paving path of the garden, close your eyes, and enjoy the snowflakes caressing your skin.
Rex and Barbas did not dare to disobey and immediately imitated the master. Stand quietly and close your eyes. At this time, Rex's ears continued to hear the sound of a blizzard howling.
"Do you feel it? That's the power of sound. Helde said slowly.
