"Intruder, tell me your name!" Cold scoldings came from all directions. The reason why these heretics who had been lying in wait for a long time did not take action rashly was because they felt strong pressure.
That's right, it's Fujunak who is wearing the full-body cloak style of "Gisese British and French Ring Armor" and is releasing the dragon's power all the time.
"Travelers from the sky, you are not welcome here." A low and hoarse voice followed.
Wu Chen saw a man in a bamboo hat walking out from behind the huge statue: "I guess you must be Watchman Sindras."
"What are you doing, Baron Ximu." Under the hat is a pumpkin-shaped metal helmet, which is the completely invisible watchman Sindara. The information about this cultist hidden in the Cave of Tears of Ashfall was all the answers that Fujuenak had gotten from his quick questions and answers.
"I'm here to send back your traitors and masks." As he said that, the Lord ordered Erden Revell, who created the ash zombies in Thelmishlin Cemetery, and the stolen Dagoth Ur's The mask was delivered to me.
"Ah..." Watcher Sindala relaxed slightly and said, "I understand that this is your kindness. Therefore, you are not here to be our enemy, Lord Baron."
"That's true." The Lord kept smiling.
"So, Lord Baron, what do you want?" Out of the caution of dark elves or pagans, Watcher Sindala did not fully trust him.
"I want to see the remaining masks with my own eyes." Wu Chen cast his gaze behind Watcher Sindara: "Is that okay, madam?"
"Why not?" The owner of the voice behind Watcher Sindala, an elegant dark elf lady, immediately walked up to him: "I salute you, my lord from Ximu."
"I also pay tribute to you, Mother Drevlan." As mentioned before, Wu Chen knew almost all the people and things in the Tribunal Temple from Erden Revell.
"I feel the aura of paganism in your body." Mother Drevlan turned her attention to Moon Shadow Priest Alania Iannis: "She is a believer in the New Temple."
"You don't need to mind. My law does not exclude anyone." Wu Chen told the truth. Moonshadow Priest Alania Iannis is the temple priest of Azura, yes, but now she also has to serve the Lord's "Law of the Mottled Golden Tree". From Nien's current standpoint, as long as the lord has no ill intentions, she is no threat at all. There is no doubt about this. After all, the current world of Nairn and Azula's Moon Shadow Plane are separated by endless void.
"Indeed." Matron Drevlan motioned to Watcher Sindara to step back: "Please follow me, my lord."
"Okay, ma'am." Wu Chen's lack of hesitation also won the trust of Mother Delevlan.
"Mother of Morrowind should not be forgotten." Approaching the giant statue of Almalexia, the lord's spiritual body's perspective flashed out.
"This is the statue we made for the goddess using..." Matron Delevlan's expression paused slightly: "The ashes from the Red Mountain are made for the goddess. We have nothing but a pious heart."
"'Your death will end this prophecy and unite, and my people will once again be led by one god, of one faith, and under one authority under my divine law. my people again under one god, one faith, one rule by my divine law.'" The Lord whispered Almalexia's famous saying.
"Ah..." Mother Drevlan seems to fully understand the Lord's mood: "Just as you did, use the "Mottled Golden Tree Law" given by "Crimson Dragon Break" to end Alduin's prophecy of destruction. "
"You are right, madam." Wu Chen looked up at the closed eyes of the giant statue of Almalexia and said meaningfully: "But the biggest difference between your goddess and me is that we will never treat all laws as The blessing of a god (eggs cannot be put in one basket, my lord?). It is a path destined to self-destruction.”
"My lord, your true knowledge and insights are indeed worthy of your great reputation." Mother Drevlan obviously felt this.
Soon, the two dark elf warriors brought out Almalexia's war mask and Vivec's ashes mask that the lord wanted to see with his own eyes. But the only thing missing was Sotha Sil's Blessed Mask.
"My lord, Sotha Sil's mask is not in the temple." Mother Drevlan said: "The temple priest Curate Melita has found the mask, and I have sent Holy Hand Kenro Han to help. she."
Wu Chen nodded slightly and said to the two dark elf warriors holding masks: "They are the legendary 'Hands of Almalexia'."
"Yes, sir." Having the protection of a powerful warrior is also the reason why Mother Drevlan is willing to show her collection of masks to the lord.
"Hands of Almalexia", or simply "Her Hands". They are Almalexia's personal temple guards, chosen from among the most skilled warriors in the Inquisition temple. Their bodies and souls are strengthened by divine magic, and their armor and weapons are imbued with terrifying divine magic. Around 2E 582, the Hands were numerous and were responsible for guarding Mournhold, along with the Coordinators, in the capital of Morrowind at the time of the Ebonheart Pact. By 3E 427, the Hand had been reduced to six men, and the Senior Coordinator took over guard duties for the city. They served as Almalexia's personal protectors when her divinity began to weaken. After the rise of the New Temple, Amalecia was demoted to Temple Saints. All worshipers of the goddess Amalecia were considered heretics and persecuted. However, the hand of Almalexia still exists tenaciously in the world, and this tradition is passed down from generation to generation. The body of each "new holy hand" is filled with the divine power of the goddess Amalecia. Until 4E 201, which is now. The last three remaining holy hands serve Mother Drevlan in the Temple of the Tribunal. According to what Wu Chen saw with his own eyes, the elegant temperament naturally revealed by the movements of Mistress Drevlan showed that she must have an extraordinary origin. For the dark elves who have a long history, many have even personally experienced this long history from the beginning of the Mythic Age to the present of the Fourth Age. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "living fossil".
This is the feeling that Mistress Drevlan gave Wu Chen: "They are Hand Kenro Hlan, Hand Ethra Mavandas, and Hand Kedelun." ·Hand Kydren Indobar.”
"Salute to you, Lord Baron." The two saints saluted Wu Chen. There is another holy hand who is not present.
In addition to the three holy hands, the Tribunal Temple also has two powerful thugs, one male and one female: Watcher Sindara and Vespas Toe.
The female dark elf dual-wielding warrior Vesparth the Toe (Vesparth the Toe) is a family descendant of the Buoyant Armigers, a small military organization affiliated with Vivec. She holds the ancient Inquisition sacred object-the battle axe. Cleaver of St. Felms". Follow Vivec's teachings, which are considered heretical by the New Temple, and protect the Church of the Tribunal Temple.
As for the origin of the mysterious Watcher Sindara, it is unknown.
Although I didn't see the blessing mask of the clockwork god Sotha Sil with my own eyes, becoming a lord was a worthwhile trip. The lord left gracefully after reading this, which surprised Mother Drevlan and the entire Tribunal Temple members. Could it be said that Baron Ximu really wanted to satisfy his simple thirst for knowledge?
Facts speak louder than words. After seeing the mask with his own eyes, Wu Chen left the Cave of Tears of Ashfall with satisfaction and a little regret.
"Mother, what is going on?" Vespas Toe, the dark elf female warrior who walked out of the hidden ambush point, did not understand the situation at all.
"That Lord Baron is truly a refreshing surprise." Mistress Delevlan sighed meaningfully.
"We have been exposed, how about..." Watcher Sindala has always been cautious.
"No need." Mistress Drevlan looked up at the giant statue of Almalexia with reverence: "The goddess asked us to stay. So we are not going anywhere."
"As you wish." Watcher Sindala's tone was full of helplessness.
In fact, everyone present knew that the Judgment Seat Temple hidden in the Tears of Ashfall was the last refuge of Almalexia's followers. Where else can you escape?
"I heard that Baron Ximu wants to buy Crow Rock." Mistress Delevlan took a deep look at Watcher Sindala, who was double-shielded by a bamboo hat and helmet: "Perhaps, this is the last one we have been waiting for. Redemption'."
