All Wu Chen's related memories are actually "copies" of the cursed witch queen's memory chain. So in a sense, it is unknown whether this asylum card in memory really exists and where it is.
But from the memory of the Cursed Witch Queen, Wu Chen had to treat it with caution as the Asgardians paid attention to the Ximu Territory.
And his purpose is also very simple, as long as he follows the self-derivation of this memory, makes key choices when necessary, promotes memory nodes, and reorganizes chaotic or even broken memory fragments into a complete chain. Awakening the cursed witch queen is the ultimate goal of Wu Chen's trip. Don't forget that Wu Chen is now in "the self in other people's memories."
It doesn’t even have to be just a curse on the Witch Queen. For example, the sorceress from the Furnace Temple in front of me is probably one of the "key memories" in this memory chain. So Wu Chen couldn't refuse to interact with her. Even for every question she asked, I had to be very alert. "A slight difference is a thousand miles lost." A small mistake can cause conflicts or paradoxes in the entire memory clues, or even cause the entire memory chain to collapse. Being unable to awaken the cursed witch queen is not the biggest crisis. Wu Chen's consciousness being trapped in this memory is the ultimate disaster.
"Have you decided?" Seeing Wu Chen thinking for a long time, the sorceress asked in a low voice.
"I will write back to the steward: Due to limited capabilities, we can only repair the northern Feitian sentry tower, but the southern sentry tower can't do anything." Wu Chen already had the answer.
"So that's it." The sorceress's eyes flashed: "Because compared to the southern flying sentry tower overlooking the throat of the mountain, the northern flying sentry tower is closer to the inaccessible Roaring Peak. From the perspective of guarding against evil dragons, The northern flying sentry tower has more advantages. Not repairing the southern flying sentry tower is also a subtle message to the Imperial Legion Commander Tullius that you have no intention of getting involved in the civil war between the empire and the Stormcloaks."
"You are absolutely right, madam." Wu Chen also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. I wonder if this choice will help sort out the memory chain of the cursed witch queen.
Wu Chen had a hunch that judging from the sorceress's reaction, it should be the right choice. As Lord Ximu, Wu Chen obviously has his own interests to care about. Compared to the simplified Ximu Town with only five households in the game, in the story world of Tamriel under the Sanctuary creation world, Ximu Town must be far more than five households.
"The Elder Scrolls: Arena Manual" mentions the size of the world of Tamriel: "The world of Tamriel is vast. Roughly calculated, from east to There are 3,000 to 4,000 kilometers to the west and about 2,000 to 3,000 kilometers from north to south (The world of Tamriel is vast, roughly three to four thousand kilometers east to west and two to three thousand kilometers north to south).”
From the previous conversation with the sorceress, "My territory is bounded by the mouth of Ilinata Lake, north of the coal mine, down the White River and to the edge of the Luo Mountain Peak." It is estimated that the diameter of the Ximu Territory is about 150 kilometers. . Of course, except for the livable White River Valley surrounded by the Coldfall Peak and Hrothgar Peak, the rest is all high mountains and vast wasteland. It is an inaccessible and barren land. Isn't this the classic start of "Five Peasants"? Thanks to the gold mountain that Wu Chen passed back from Asgard, that "competent housekeeper" was able to take drastic measures and regain the old territory. In a short period of time, the atmosphere inside and outside the territory was completely changed.
Right now, even the Imperial Legion stationed in Helgen is alarmed by the extremely rich Ximu Territory.
Wu Chen then remembered that the fifth frame guardian of Hanluo Fortress he had seen earlier seemed a bit familiar. Wu Chen tried to open it again and was sure that it was the Imperial Captain who had led a team of wolf-like imperial elites to Ximu Town to collect food. So after learning that the housekeeper spent a lot of money to build the Hanluo Fortress. The Empire's General Tullius immediately dispatched the "Female Butcher of Helgen" to guard Ximu Territory.
Seeing Wu Chen click on the portrait of the female captain of Hanluo Fortress, the sorceress who had already seen most of the housekeeper's letters explained: "The female captain was seriously injured a few days ago and was sent here by the Priestess of Arkay. Ximu is recuperating from his injuries. The period of recuperation coincided with the construction of Gray Rock Castle and Hanluo Fortress. So I was ordered to stay in Ximu Town."
"Why was he seriously injured?" Wu Chen was puzzled: "Did Helgen be attacked by a dragon?"
"No, she was kicked by the horse." The sorceress said: "According to the witnesses in Helgen, she rushed forward before the prison van escorting the prisoners stopped that day. As a result, the horse was frightened and almost killed her. Kicked to death..."
Could it be that this is the hilarious "Empire female captain suddenly dies" joke?
Give players a set of early-scarce imperial suits for free at the beginning?
Using healing as an excuse, the empire took the opportunity to station an elite force on the only way to Snowman City. It was obvious that they were well prepared. This also means that Wu Chen, the previously small lord of Ximu, has begun to be taken seriously by all parties.
Whether this is an advantage or a disadvantage, Wu Chen, who is far away in Asgard, still doesn't know at this time.
Of course, from the perspective of "rich people have distant relatives in the mountains". These powerful people who are flocking here are obviously coming for the "Gray Rock and Gold Mountain". The housekeeper rebuilt a fortress on the original site of the old house, built a teleportation platform at the teleportation point, and enclosed the teleportation platform in the vestibule surrounded by stone walls. The purpose is self-evident: even if the lord returns a gold mountain next time, it will not matter. It will be exposed.
After taking a closer look at the Ximu collar, Wu Chen turned to the other side of the furnace to see the postcard of the gray stone castle.
The two postcards appeared back to back, and the sorceress had to look at both sides before she realized that one had become two.
"This is..." Wu Chen's expression said it all.
Previously, because of the angle of the portrait, Wu Chen not only didn't think the gray stone castle was so majestic, but instead felt it was abrupt and even a little ugly. However, when the angle is changed and a frontal close-up is taken, the style suddenly changes. It feels like changing a 10-stop filter.
The momentum is not only magnificent, but also clearly domineering.
Because the White River flows from southwest to northeast, the limestone castle faces south at a 45° angle, dominating the White River Valley. The very high skyline behind the castle that disappears into the clouds is the throat of the world, Hrothgar's Peak. That is, the Roaring Peak with 7,000 stone steps.
Frames 1 to 5 of the Greystone Castle: the stern castle gate, the solemn castle hall, the magnificent lord's throne, the gorgeous long-table restaurant, and the heroic guardians of the Greystone Castle. No wonder the angels have come.
That's right, it's not the huge statue of Akatosh, the dragon god of time, that overlooks all living beings from the heights of the castle!
Behind the Dragon God Altar, there are taller twin towers. That's the top of the castle!
The statues of the Holy Spirit and the Demon God surround the castle. They are obviously a powerful magical barrier, and not just for beauty!
With this castle dominating the valley, why should Ximu Town build a back wall!
But every traveler who walks on the stone bridge will be overwhelmed by the huge castle behind it and feel frightened. Those with ulterior motives should flee as far away as possible. The Elder Scrolls is gone!
"Of course, this is the powerful role of landmark buildings." The sorceress said matter-of-factly: "If we want to capture your territory, we must first capture this castle."
"You are right, ma'am." The sorceress's plain words seemed to have another mystery to Wu Chen.
Compared with the universal rules understood by the sorceress, Wu Chen also read the deeper meaning of the shelter rules behind them. It's similar to the ninth section of Public Security Section that was taken into the fifth frame of Major Kusanagi. If you want to absorb the 5-star exclusive Dixi Wood Collar, you must also absorb the "Hanluo Fortress" in the fifth frame. To enter "Hanluo Fortress", you must eliminate the exclusive branch plot lines introduced by Wu Chen with "Greystone Castle" as the carrier. This is also the branch line that hostile players who want to seize the 5-star exclusive Dixi Wood Territory must clear. .
This means that having a landmark building is equivalent to having a double layer of protection. Commonly known as "two lives" or "two tubes of blood".
Therefore, it can be simply understood that landmark buildings are the second life of exclusive places.
