Flying over Xueman City, the sky gradually darkened. Fellglow Keep, located on the southern edge of Cape Shire, was originally a military fortress guarding the northern part of Snowrun City. Nowadays, various parts of the fortress have collapsed, and it is rumored that it has been privately occupied by a group of mages. The function of this fortress was replaced by the Whitewatch Tower guarding the broad stone road. As one of the only two sentinel towers on the snowy tundra, the Whitewatch Tower has been ravaged by war since the outbreak of the Skyrim Civil War. It is rumored that it changed hands several times during this period. Although it is still in the hands of the Snowman guards, the tower that almost collapsed into ruins has long lost its role in resisting the army. This is also an important sign that the Snowman lord "The Strong" Balgrove is unable to suppress the rebellion. The obvious subtext: Look, General, we can't even afford to repair the tower, so how can we help you pacify the Stormcloaks?
However, after Baron Ximu helped Xueman survive the crisis of annihilation, "Strong" Balgrove finally felt the urgent need to defend against dragon attacks. Not only did he spend several boxes of gold coins obtained from the empire, but he also spent his own money to drastically transform the Western Watch Tower and Figuero Fortress into a solid defensive fortress comparable to Hanluo Fortress.
They even spent a lot of money to ask Master Hanluohuan to come down from the mountain and join forces to cast the "Low Grammar Ring". This is what it is today. The renovated White Hope Fortress strictly guards the border leading to the White Territory. It has also become an important northern pass leading to the Snowman Territory. Because the security situation has greatly improved, the caravans and travelers entering and leaving Xueman are the "strong" Lord Balgrove, filling the dry money bag in time. Saved the crumbling fiscal crisis.
It was the prerogative of the lords to pay customs duties according to the value of the goods. In many cases, in order to attract more business travelers, the tariffs of the nine major territories are set with upper limits. No matter how precious the trafficked goods are, they are only charged a fixed amount. However, with the outbreak of the civil war, and the ensuing tower collapse and dragon attack, the last financial straw finally broke. Beginning with the Lord of Snowrun, Lord Balgrove the Strong, the floating tariff began to be implemented. This also means that all caravans entering Xueman through checkpoints must truthfully report their trafficking lists. Compared with the floating tax rate, the freight list is the deadlock that cannot be made public. As a result, many caravans began to take desperate risks and hired a large number of brave men to avoid the broad stone roads and detour through remote smuggling trails. This also invisibly increased the burden on the caravans, as well as the increasing losses of people and goods. Similarly, the increasingly severe banditry in Skyrim has become the fifth major cancer in the rule of the nine lords, after tower collapse, dragon attack, civil war, and smuggling.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a time of internal and external troubles and a crisis of survival.
The one I want to blame is the Nords who are very nervous and physically big. In this way, I can keep the cup in hand all day long, happily eating large pieces of meat and enjoying a large bowl of wine.
A beheading would leave a scar as big as a bowl. right?
So true. Here are some brothers, and one more will go!
The wind howled, and a gray blizzard began to rage.
These snowflakes, corroded by the wind of ash, exude the aura of annihilation. It is obvious that the airship is slowing down.
Although the engraved dharma ring is still strong. But the deck that was first affected by the annihilation was no longer suitable for staying. Storm Outlook member Leith Pappy, who was on the mainmast watchtower, loudly shouted to the crew on the deck to get down and take shelter. Captain Mu Li then controlled the bracelet to enhance the output of the magic ring and raised the defense level from "cruising" to "defending enemies". The remaining five members, Xie Lisi, Tanisha, Rhiannon, Vivier, and Zuleika, were in their respective positions, and they were fully controlling the airship with Captain Mu Li in the cockpit of the stern.
As a "Team Card" with the same name, the Storm Outlook crew also has an exclusive "Golden Page of the Law". Just like Azarudun's 3000 Golden Tree Elf, he is also the adapter of the Crimson Dragon Break by default in the law.
There have long been rumors in 300 Li Ximu Ling. On the upcoming sixth contract award day, all members of the Storm Outlook, Starry Night Goddess, Silver Moon, and Sword Wind will be honored to be the contract recipients. There are even rumors that the female warrior team stationed at Hanluo Fortress and Northern Feitian Outpost will also be lucky enough to be included.
Of course, these are all baseless rumors. It is not officially recognized by Greystone Castle. But there is one thing to say. The Ximu Territory, which has already exceeded 10,000 households, has a powerful and elite Gisei Guards, which is obviously the most legitimate, reasonable and imminent divine need of the lord.
Obviously, standing at the height of the Broken Law of Sanctuary, collecting all the "Ximu Deck" is of extremely important strategic significance for the adventure of returning to the Broken City, especially to resist the sweeping day on the 12th (Wow, it's true) Is it because you, my lord, have elevated it to strategic significance or secondarily, even touched upon divinity? Huh? Can the so-called 'divinity' be understood with reference to 'Dragon Break'?).
The gray blizzard that swept across the snowy tundra seemed to set off an endless wave.
The tiny airship is like a small boat in the vast ocean, rising and falling, as if it will be submerged by huge waves at any time.
"This is not a force of nature." In the lord's cabin, Wu Chen gently closed an ancient book.
"Is it the giant dragon named Ventus?" The housekeeper sitting opposite also felt the full malice wrapped in the gray blizzard.
"Nine times out of ten." Wu Chen's intuition must be correct.
"Do you want to use the magic light cannon?" the housekeeper asked softly again.
"No need for the moment." Wu Chen's small universe needs to cope with the upcoming trip to the ancient tomb. Therefore, Wu Chen could not easily use high-dimensional hands to transform the Ventus Demonic Light without obtaining the most important Sawtooth Crown in the "Dragon Fire Rekindling Ceremony". Especially this cunning dragon, not only can it roll up blizzards, but it can also become invisible. This caused a lot of interference to Wu Chen.
"She must have learned about your danger and power from the dragons, my dear master." The spirit dragon knight Ashtaret, who was staring at the porthole, seemed to catch a fleeting gray shadow.
Wu Chen smiled and nodded: "It is indeed the 'Invisible Violent Hammer of Light'."
"Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night." Brighton Nightblade Alice, one of the three Blade sisters, was the first to walk out of the bedroom. Then he opened the magic ring and put on his battle uniform.
Followed by the eternal blade Eternas, the Brighton light blade Corvo, and the four iron-armed sisters Rockflower Tish, Bear Slayer Kira, Whispering Raider Shae, and Microfire May ; Ready to go one after another.
"Don't worry, everyone." The housekeeper, who also put on the exclusive steel furnace suit, instantly transformed into the sleeping giantess Alicia: "This is just a test before the dragon hunts."
"It's more of a power than a test." The Lord opened his eyes gently, pointed at the map on the table, and said into the brass microphone: "Stay away from Cape Shire and go around the Eldersblood Peak."
"As ordered." Captain Mu Li, the daughter of Skyrim, immediately adjusted the course with full left rudder and flew towards the Skyborn Range.
Everything was as the Lord wanted.
As the airship veered off course, the gray blizzard gradually receded. When we got close to the Tianjiang Mountains, we corrected our course again. Follow the north-south remnant of the "L" Tianjiang Mountains, around the Cape of Shire, and drive to the site of the Cowanjonde Tomb.
This means that Char Point is the edge of the nest of the dragon Ventus. Perhaps he was afraid of facing a direct confrontation with the humanoid dragon Duwak, so he just used gray blizzard to drive away instead of following him.
At dawn the next day, the Storm Outlook had quietly arrived over the remains of the Wanqiongde Tomb.
To be honest, it is a dark brotherhood with "caring service and customer first". Unexpectedly, an eye-catching outline was excavated from the remains of an ancient tomb buried deep under the frozen soil of the tundra.
The lord has sincere admiration for the living dead "Night Mother" who has been lying in a coffin for half her life.
"Master, be careful." Looking down at the relics of the ancient tomb of Wanqiong that had been revealed again, the former blood-blade assassin of the Morag Gang, the dragon-slaying demon sword Irelles seemed to smell a trace of hidden murderous intent: "There is an ambush below."
