I want to ask Ximu people, how long has the lord been away?
Hmm... Anyway, it seems like a long time, but it doesn't seem like that long.
This is obviously the reason why the unknown plot is frozen.
"Sir, since you left, Ms. Alicia has been doing her best to manage the territory. As you can see, the palm-sized Ximu Town has become a 50-mile-long and 15-mile-wide Ximu City. If you add Congge The 5 miles from Erdo Mill to the foot of Hanluo Mountain on the other side of the Baihe River, that's 20 miles wide." The coachman kept telling Wu Chen about the earth-shaking changes in Ximu collar: "Of course, the gray rock and gold mountain that your Excellency sent back , and it’s all these changes that pay the bills. Haha!”
"Okay." Wu Chen nodded lightly.
News of the Lord's return spread like wildfire. Both sides of the long street were gradually surrounded by residents. This long street, full of Ximu's unique Nord style, is converging into Wu Chen's new memory point.
"Sir, you are finally back." On the second floor terrace were the Valerius brothers and sisters from Ximu Grocery Store.
"Long time no see, Lukan, Kemila." Wu Chen responded with a smile. The image of the brother and sister in the grocery store immediately merged with the memory copy. Wu Chen can fully believe that he has really arrived in Ximu Town.
"My lord, my lord -" The boy in the crowd who was running and screaming after the carriage was Goldot and Hood's son Flodnar.
"Little Flordner, are your parents okay?" Wu Chen asked with a smile.
"Everyone is fine, sir. Life in the town has been really good recently!" The excitement on the boy's face even covered his freckles.
"Look, sir. Ms. Alicia spent a lot of money to build houses for the gray people." Following the coachman's fingers, Wu Chen saw that there were indeed many houses under construction in Ximu Town. And they are generally 2 or 3-story stone-based wooden buildings.
"Shouldn't the gray people all live in Azarudeng on the Hanluo Mountain Peak?" Wu Chen subconsciously looked at the Hanluo Mountain Peak on the other side of the river, and sure enough he saw a mountaintop city towering in the clouds.
"That's right, sir. The 'Plane Grays' from Vat Alheim all live in Azaruden. But after the 'Collapse Day', the entire sky was in chaos. Except for your territory, we don't have any of the Nine Territories. News from one place. Even the roads in Snowrun City are blocked by the 'Annihilation Storm'."
"Collapse day, annihilation storm?" Wu Chen had an ominous premonition.
Could it be said that the Ximu Territory in the oasis world of "The Elder Scrolls" is in the same apocalypse as Newport City in "Ghost in the Shell"? Of course, this is also the true meaning of "Fragments = Cards". The shattered fragments were sealed into a guardian memory. Generally speaking, as long as it is sealed into a card, it means that the original plot world is broken.
Therefore, the 5-star exclusive land: Ximu Ling is essentially a plot fragment. Since it is a fragment, it is naturally completely separated from the original plot world. The Annihilation Storm is actually a space-time barrier that wraps up the fragments.
Seeing Wu Chen lowering his head and saying nothing, the coachman shrugged his shoulders for the rest of his life: "Sir, we all thought you... would never come back."
As he spoke, the coachman softly chanted the prophecy in the ancient "The Book of the Dragonborn":
"When tyranny reigns on all sides (Jarghar Thane plots to seize the throne, The Elder Scrolls: Arena)."
"When the Brass Tower moves, time is reshaped (Rebellion in the West, "The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall")."
"When the three major blessings fail, the Red Tower trembles (Red Mountain erupts and Nerevarin predicts "The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind")."
"When the Dragonborn loses power, the White Tower collapses (Annihilation Crisis, "The Elder Scrolls IV: Annihilation")."
"When the snow tower shattered, no one was king and blood flowed (Civil War in Skyrim Province, "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim")."
"When the Devourer of Worlds awakens, the wheel of time turns to the last of the Dragonborn."
To put it simply, the so-called "tower" in "The Elder Scrolls" is the law and pillar of Mundus (this world).
They refer to divine creation (natural) and man-made wonders respectively. Initially, Mundus only needed four natural towers (gold, red, snow, and green) to be stable, and then the artificial towers erected were equivalent to forcibly adding new laws. The necessary condition for the completion of the new tower is "Dragon Breaking". The setting of the tower is similar to the "Pillar of the World", "Stone of the World" or "Tree of the World" in other plot worlds.
Four natural towers: the Snow Tower of Roaring Peak in the sky, fertility and reproduction; the green liquid tower of the big oak tree in Valen Forest, corruption and reincarnation; the red tower of Morrowind Red Mountain, stable space; the High Rock Fine Gold Tower (Tower 0), the main god Akka (Aka) led the Yids to conquer the laws set by Lu Naien at the beginning and stabilize time.
There are three known man-made towers: the Crystal Tower of Summerset, the Heart of the Law, the Monument of the Ancestors, and the Eternal Power of Elven Kingship; the White-Gold Tower of Cyrodiil, in Meridia , also known as Meridia, Meridia, the demon god in charge of light), the Ayleids imitated the Adamantine Tower and added the Orbis spokes (the wheel that stabilizes the world), located in the Dream The absolute center of Darth is King Power Tower No. 1 (which connects the inside and outside of Mundus in the forward direction and isolates it in the reverse direction), the symbol of the supreme kingship; the Brass Tower, the Dwemer philosophy, the one-sided denial of the Loveless.
"Some people believe that the White Gold Tower and other tall towers in Tamriel jointly support the world. Others believe that before the dragon broke, the towers were our barrier against the invasion of Annihilation... They supported the world. , so that it will not dissolve into annihilation or a space similar to annihilation. Everyone seems to be convinced that they have great power, but no one knows what power they have." - "City of Hell".
Obviously, the "collapse day" mentioned by the coachman refers to the "tower collapse day".
Wu Chen subconsciously looked at the Roaring Peak of Snow Tower in the sky, and he saw an extremely horrifying scene.
Starting from halfway up the mountain, the entire mountain peak was enveloped in a terrifying dark red storm, accompanied from time to time by silent flares and scarlet flames. This is what the coachman calls "the storm of annihilation."
"Since the snow tower collapsed, why was Ximu located under the Throat of the World not destroyed?" Wu Chen asked again.
"Sir, thank you to the "ring mages" on the top of Hanluo Mountain. They used their magic rings to forge the Hanluo Mountain into a new "Han Tower", supporting the sky in Ximu." The coachman pointed to the Hanluo Mountain: "Sir, you Look – Ring Mage Academy!”
Following the direction of the coachman's whip, Wu Chen saw at a glance the mountain-top city towering above the clouds through the rare gap in the middle of the street: Azarudun!
The original temple built by the ancient Nords Dragon Cult has been replaced by a magnificent magician's fortress.
This marvelous building that stands on the top of Hanluo and resists annihilation by itself is the "Hanluo Huan Mage Academy".
"Who is in charge of the Dharma Ring?" Wu Chen finally grasped the key point of the plot.
The coachman spoke her name skillfully and loudly: "The destined guardian of the hearthstone, the holder of the circle of life, the twin of destiny, Lady Freya of the Heron's Feather."
really. The long name is enough to show the importance of Freya in the hearts of the people. Just as the black soul of Freya said, she and the queen crossed planes and arrived at Ximu after the palace change that swept through the Silver Hall.
So as long as you find Freya, you can find clues to return to the Broken City. Wu Chen's trip should be worthwhile.
"Sir, your safety is what we all hope for." It was Delphine, the proprietress of the Sleeping Giant Hotel, who interrupted Wu Chen's thoughts.
"Nice to see you again, madam." Wu Chen greeted with a smile.
Follow the carriage out of the back door of Ximu. A majestic graystone castle stands at the end of the stone road.
Before Wu Chen could get closer, in the dim small universe, twinkling stars were waking up from their slumber one after another.
Wu Chen saw it clearly, it was clearly his - Ω Capricorn!
