Chapter 47: God and Godhood

The air that could blow Wilka away was blocked by these old men, known as "Graybeard", and they stood motionless. He crossed his arms in front of his head, and his entire face was hidden behind his arms, and his arms emitted a glowing blue light, and when the air rushed in front of him, it diverted by, and he could only carry the navy blue robe and flutter continuously.

"Congratulations, you have successfully demonstrated the strength of a segment. To introduce myself, my name is Ayngail, and I am a lifelong practitioner of the Dragon's Roar, and this is my three companions, Wolfgar, Ainus, and Bory. At the beginning, the old man who greeted the girl spoke loudly, and every time he introduced him as a companion, one of them bent down slightly to show his greetings, and the old man who had just received the girl's dragon roar was named Ainus.

"Is the dragon's roar I just cast called the power of the dragonborn? why do you call me a dragonborn? you also have a dragon's roar, aren't you also a dragonborn?" the girl asked.

Aynriel shook his head, "No, no, no, it's just that you're a dragonborn, we're all mortals, and you and ours have completely different sources of power. His voice was very deep.

"Thousands of years ago, the goddess Ginarith gave this power to the world, and some early kings and heroes of the continent learned this power, and this kind of learning takes a long time to comprehend the dragon language, understand the relationship between the dragon language and this world, and most people can only comprehend a few in their lifetime. ”

"And you, Dragonborn, you're different. The dragon god of time, Akatosh, has given you the blood of the dragon clan, and you will naturally understand the meaning of the dragon language. Dragon words that take us years or even decades to understand, but you can grasp its meaning in an instant. You are born with dragon blood, and you surpass us in the power of dragon roar. All you lack is a dragon soul. ”

The girl's brow moved slightly, "Oh, in that case, why has my dragon's roar not changed in power for four years? I have also killed many dragons in the Skyrim Wild, and I have sucked blue things from them. ”

The four Greybeards glanced at each other and nodded, and Aynriel continued, "This is God's will, and the power of the dragon's roar will not increase with the number of dragon souls, but will only grow with the number of dragon words comprehended. Each dragon roar is divided into three sections, and only by comprehending the three interrelated dragon languages and combining them correctly can your dragon roar be released to the greatest extent. ”

The girl thought for a moment and agreed with this statement, "But why haven't these dragons appeared in the past so many years, but now they appear so often? I found that there are often dragon tombs where dragons appear, are these dragons dead dragons?"

"You're right, these dragons were resurrected because of Alduin's presence. And you, the Dragonborn, your mission is to destroy Alduin, this is the mission of every Dragonborn, and only the Dragonborn can master the many complete dragon roars to challenge Alduin. ”

"Dragonborn's mission?" the girl pondered for a moment, "This morning, we met two disciples in Yew Town who claimed to be the leader of the Mirak sect, and they thought that Mirak was the real dragonborn, and that I was a fake and attacked us. I wonder if the four of them know if Milak is really related to the Dragonborn, and if Milak is really a Dragonborn, then why didn't he kill Alduin instead of me?"

The four graybeards listened to the girl's few words, and their faces showed surprise.

Aynriel sighed, "The truth can't be concealed after all, and I can't imagine that one day it will be remembered." You're right, Milak is a Dragonborn, but he's a betrayal of the Dragonborn of Time, Akatosh. There's a history in between, and I don't know if you'd like to hear it from us. ”

The girl pricked up her ears to listen.

So the four Graybeards, one by one, slowly told a story that was buried in time.

β€”β€”β€”β€” Dividing Lineβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Ever since Akatosh brought time to the planet Nain, Alduin, the eldest son of Akatosh, has been given a mission to act as a "world warner" to signal to all mortals in the world at the end of an era, announcing the end of an old era and preparing them for a new one.

However, the knowledge-poor ancient mortals mistakenly believed that the end of the era would mean the destruction of the entire world, and thus fell into infinite panic. Alduin felt the joy of enslaving the mortals, and eventually, Alduin gave up his duties and began to rule the mortals by force under the name of the "Devourer of Worlds", in the form of a dragon.

Unable to forgive Alduin for abandoning his duties, Akatosh created Alesia, a female dragonborn, and Milak, a male dragonborn, with the intention of destroying Alduin, and at the same time, the Demon God King who annihilated the world also had an operation to destroy Alduin, using this as an excuse to invade the planet Nairn.

Although the Dragonborn had been born at this time, the extremely intelligent Demon God of Knowledge, Hermanes Mora, already knew that neither the "female Dragonborn" Alesia nor the "male Dragonborn" Mirak would be able to destroy Alduin.

Although Alduin is in the form of a dragon, he is actually the soul of a god inside, and even if he is defeated, the dragonborn who only has the blood of the dragon will not be able to absorb his divine soul. And the essence of the dragonborn is not actually whether it can absorb the dragon soul, nor is it the dragon language, let alone the dragon roar, but the bloodline.

The reason why Akatosh created the male and female dragonborn was actually to combine the two of them and give birth to offspring, and the dragonborn would inherit the bloodline of their parents and pass it on from generation to generation, and the older the bloodline inherited, the more likely it is to return to their ancestors, the stronger the power of inheritance, and the stronger the dragon's roar.

The verses recorded in the Book of Dragonborns that have been circulated in the world do not refer to the birth of the Dragonborn, but to each sublimation of the Dragonborn's blood. When the Dragonborn's blood is passed down to the last Dragonborn, the Dragonborn's blood will become extremely powerful and return to the essence of the gods, thus destroying Alduin.

Hermanes Mora, the god of knowledge, informed Milak of all this, causing Mirak to immediately abandon Akatosh and his duties, and instead join Alduin's Worship of the Dragons, and Milak's joining the Worship of the Dragons did not really serve Alduin.

As time passed, Alesia had passed away, and Milak had become the High Priestess of the Cult of the Dragons, becoming an immortal being. With the help of Hermanes Mora, Milak learned the dragon language created by Hermanes Mora from the Book of Knowledge and began to enslave the allies at Alduin's side.

When Milak felt that the time was right, he suddenly led his dragon legion to attack Alduin. Although Milak had mastered many powerful dragonroars at this time, he had forgotten the fact that the power of the dragonborn lay in his bloodline, and he was not much stronger than Alesia.

After a fierce battle, Milak was defeated and forced to flee to the island of Southam in Morrowind.

Alduin didn't care about the existence of the Dragonborn, and he knew that the Dragonborn would not be able to absorb his spirit. But after fighting Milak, he suddenly sensed a hint of the truth about the Dragonborn, and he was afraid that there would really be a Dragonborn who had the ability to destroy him in the future.

Alduin himself led his dragon sacrifice legion to Skyrim with the intention of exterminating the descendants of Alesia. As for Milak, Alduin sent his most loyal and powerful dragon sacrifice to fight in Southam.

But Alduin never expected that he would be banished into the long river of time by the three heroes using the Elder Scrolls in Skyrim, thousands of years later, while Milak was forced to flee into the inner space of the Knowledge Demon Sutra under the cooperation of the Dragon Sacrifice and the local Nords.

After that, the locals hid the Sutra and sealed it in the center of Southam Island, and set up five sacred stones on the island to seal the exit of the Sutra.

But thousands of years have passed, and time has passed, and Mirak, who is in the knowledge of the Demon Sutra, has gained more and more power from Hermanes Mora, while the power of the Divine Stone on Thatham Island has begun to weaken. Mirak's power began to infiltrate the island's inhabitants through dreams through the Knowledge Sutra, intending to make the islanders worship him and build a temple for himself to counteract the power of the Sealing Divine Stone and escape from the Knowledge Sutra.

At the same time, Alduin, who had been banished to the river of time, has returned, ready to resurrect the dragons who have long been submerged in history and take revenge on the mortals of the Skyrim.

Graybeard's story was not so specific, and they only knew that Mirak's specific whereabouts were finally sealed in the Knowledge Demon Sutra, so they were very shocked by the reappearance of Mirak that the girl said just now. The last content is based on what Graybeard said and combined with his own understanding of the current situation on Southam Island.

Bloodline, fate.

When the girl heard this buried history, she couldn't help chuckling, "The meaning of my life is to kill Alduin? ”

"The Holy Spirit and the gods and demons play with the fate of mortals, hoping that mortals will act according to their will, and I don't know whether this is gratifying or sad. These gods and demons are high up, and they are afraid that one day they will die at the hands of mortals. A voice sounded faintly in the corner of the stone hall.

The four graybeards looked at Lu Xihua who was standing in the corner of the wall and said, "Mortals are originally part of the composition of the world, and the fate of the world affects the fate of mortals, so why can't mortals born in the world contribute to the replacement of the world?

"Weakness is the original sin. We are not born free, the gods are high above us, and our fate is nothing more than a game. Lu, I understand, since you don't want to accept it, then try to become one of them, from a chess piece to a chess player, you have the qualification to control your destiny, just like you. The girl turned her head, her eyes burned, as if she had seen the most beautiful thing, and the whole body glowed with a faint brilliance, and invisible, from the inside to the outside there was a refreshing light, as if the dust on the pearl had been wiped away, and it glowed.

"The gods created the world, and the world was originally a cage. In the past four years, you have been troubled, you have been confused, from a little girl who wants to go home step by step to the present, and finally understand your pursuit, and the heart of martial arts has been achieved. Okay! I didn't look away. ”

The orc girl winked playfully, "But I still want to go home." ”

Lu Xihua said with a smile, "Do whatever you want, where the Tao is; I'm waiting for you out of the sky!"

As soon as Lu Xihua finished saying this, a wild aura suddenly erupted in the stone hall, and the shadow of a green elephant appeared behind him, getting bigger and bigger, breaking the top of the stone hall in an instant, exposing the entire stone hall to the moonlight. The moonlight shines on the blue elephant, as if it is draped in a silver veil, and the silver light on the green elephant is dotted, like a river of stars.

"Four elders, use your dragon roar, let me see the true face of this world!" Lu Xihua shouted, and the blue elephant proboscis behind him flicked it, and immediately turned into four, attacking the four old men respectively.

And An had already stepped aside, his eyes motionless to look at all this, becoming a god, can a mortal body really become a god? Thousands of years ago, the mortal Talos incarnated the Holy Spirit in the form of a dragonborn, no one could see the truth or falsehood, and today Lu condensed the supernatural power in front of him, impacted the divine way, and pointed out a new path for himself. 8)
