"As for the priestess trapped in Kaglenzel, let Uriah and Ashtaret go to the rescue. After retrieving the mask, use the Holy Light Gate to send it directly back to Crow Rock." The Lord has considered it very carefully. . Archangel Uriah and Spirit Dragon Knight Ashtaret are all stationed in Ximu at this time. It is most convenient and quick to rush to rescue the priestess trapped in the Dwemer ruins. But Wu Chen couldn't help but be curious. Logically speaking, the Dwemer dwarves had disappeared long ago, and if the mask had been worn on Sotha Sil's face, it could be traced back to at least the end of the Third Era or even the beginning of the Fourth Era. So, who brought Sotha Sil's mask out of the Clockwork City and hid it in the dwarf labyrinth of Kagrenzel?
Moreover, it is said that the labyrinth is located high in the Velos Mountains. In the letter for help, the priestess Melita also said that the priestess Afia Velodi is a "Velosian". An ancient book "Veloth the Pilgrim" that Wu Chen had read recorded that Saint Veloth, the most famous and respected among the sages of the dark elves, served him and his Followers seeking a more ascetic and pure way of life led them on a grand pilgrimage from southwestern Tamriel to the northeast, and those who followed Pilgrim Veloth trekked through the darkness of the Veloth Mountains Elves, so they called their race Velos.
"Okay, Master." Judgment Angel Shulia used the "Holy Sound Technique" between angels to convey the Lord's order to Archangel Urlia, who was thousands of miles away. Transmitting sound is similar to opening the Holy Light Gate. It is a kind of "transient movement". The known "psychic arts", "whispering arts", etc. also have similar abilities. It is said that the original version was derived from the tuning magic of the long-lost Dwemer dwarves. In short, unlike channeling, which requires the use of some special magic props such as channeling crystal balls, the "holy sound art" between angels can be achieved through the angels themselves. Similar to the ravings of gods, but can only be transmitted between angels.
This is also a new skill acquired by the colorful apostles who are the divine projection of Meridia in Mundus after the "Lighthouse Festival". Of course, with the "Lighthouse Festival" as a symbol, the vengeful angel Aishinya who descended as the fourth apostle is proof that the Lord's exclusive law is recognized and manifested into a grand golden tree.
"Master, since all the dragon priest's tombs have been visited by the wise giant Mimir in advance. In future adventures, there is no need to go to the dragon priest's tomb." Dawn Warhammer Xili actually refers to the temple of the first generation dragonborn Milak .
Previously, the dark elf miner Laris Sedalis recruited people from all over the world to excavate a place on the island where Milak was said to be buried. As a result, the excavation camp was burned to ashes by the frost dragon Korosa using dragon breath. The miners in the camp who were bewitched by Miraak were either killed or injured. The entire ruins excavation site was also burned down and turned into a deep pit with thick smoke billowing all day long. It is said that the dark elf miners who lost their jobs due to the closure of the Ebony Mine were easily seduced by Miraak's ravings and the complete dragon bone of 200,000 gold coins, and went to the Burqon Ancient Tomb excavation site because of the pressure of life.
Since the mining camp was burned down by the dragon attack, idle miners have returned to Crow Rock. Many people are even reduced to begging in the market for a living. Living in an Abandoned Building.
Among them is Bralsa Drel, a dark elf female miner.
"My Lord Baron, what can I do for you?"
"I heard that you participated in the excavation of the ruins." The Lord asked with a smile.
"Yes, sir. How should I put it..." Brarsa Dreyer sighed: "I only remember waking up from the cries of my companions, and my eyes were full of firelight, and there was a huge black shadow in the sky. …When we passed out from exhaustion outside Crow Rock City and were revived by Redoran guards. We couldn’t remember anything about the previous time.”
"So, are you familiar with the name Milak?"
"Mirak? That name sounds familiar...or does it? I don't remember it." Brarsa Drell was truly clueless.
Just as the lord thought. They should have been under some kind of mental magic similar to "hypnosis".
In order to determine whether she had a short-term memory loss or a long-term mental damage, the Lord changed the subject calmly: "Tell me about you."
"Okay, sir." Brarsa Dreyer paused slightly: "I am one of the richest miners in the town. My mining volume is almost 3 to 4 times that of ordinary miners. I have never It feels like the end is coming now. The Ebony Mine is really finished. Unlike most miners, I saved enough money to leave Crow Rock and settle on the mainland. I was too stupid to not save enough to leave. Crow Rock money. And the rest was spent on Sujama wine to make me forget my sad situation."
Sujamma is a wine brewed by the dark elves of Morrowind. The raw materials are: barley (Barley), (Comberry), and lemon (Lemon).
"So, how do you feel now?" Being able to remember the past shows that there is no long-term mental damage.
"It couldn't be better, my lord. A huge deposit of ebony has been discovered in the reopened deep mine. It has to be said that old Clesius is very sensitive to the location of the deposit. If they had only listened to him a few years ago, the town would have It won't be so miserable. At this rate, I can sleep peacefully in a few months. It's all thanks to you, sir." The female miner's gratitude is obvious: "Not just the miners and their families, but all the crows The residents of the Rock are full of gratitude to you. The Ebony Mine is everything we depend on for our livelihood."
"Okay. It's an honor for me to help you resolve your predicament." The Lord nodded with a smile: "I will transform that abandoned building into a miner's home."
"I salute you, my lord." The female miner left with gratitude.
"Your generosity and kindness have won the hearts of the people of Crow Rock, my dear master." The housekeeper smiled: "This will be very beneficial to our future rule."
Especially before the deal was reached, Wu Chen told the Crow Rock Council the news that the ebony mine was not exhausted. It was given without any preconditions, and was regarded as "absolute goodwill" by the dark elves in the city.
It is also in line with the Lord's great reputation.
"What should we do if the Redoran family doesn't want to sell it?" Fujuenac is becoming more and more like a housekeeper and knows how to think about his men at all times.
"No, they will definitely take action." The Lord was very confident.
"Master, I have determined that the ancient book that disappeared in the tomb of Dragon Priest Zaklisos is one of Hermoeus Mora's "Dark Magic Book"." Librarian Dawn Warhammer Xili rushed Go into the study.
"So, there is a high probability that the "Dark Magic Book" of the Demon God of Knowledge is on the island." Wu Chen had a hunch: "How much do we know about Hermoeus Mora."
"Master Neros once said that the 'Seven Books of Darkness' are the domain of Hermoeus Mora, the Demon God of Knowledge. The master also has an unverifiable guess that the soul of the first generation dragonborn Mirak is hidden in the Seven Books. But. I don’t know which one it is specifically." Dawn Warhammer Xili was already prepared: "If this is true, then it means that by reading the "Dark Magic Book", you can enter the annihilation field of the Knowledge Demon: the Apocrypha."
Apocrypha is the plane of annihilation of Hermoeus Mora, a library containing endless forbidden knowledge. It is filled with nameless books with black covers, and there are cursed ghosts with endless hunger for knowledge floating in the library. There, all hidden knowledge can be found. The world within the aberration looks like a library with no boundaries. The bookshelves extend in all directions, layer after layer, and the pages are floating in the mysterious wind, but there is no wind here. Each book has a black untitled cover. Many ghosts shuttle between the bookshelves, float over the books, and never stop wandering in the ocean of knowledge. Its plane holds countless forbidden knowledge, tempting mortals, especially wise men, to seek in the scriptures. Most people will eventually fall into madness in the process of seeking forbidden knowledge, but there are also a few people who can successfully travel through the aberrations and gain knowledge of great power. In addition to directly talking to Mora mentally to enter the dystopia, you can also enter by reading the forbidden book "Dark Magic Book".
There was a saying that the Apocrypha contained all the forgotten things, such as Miraak, the first dragonborn.
The demonic weapon of the Demon God of Knowledge is the "Dark Demonic Scripture", also known as the "Seven Books of Darkness". Each book contains different forbidden knowledge. Those who read the Black Book will be pulled out of the Mundas plane and enter the abyss. Most scholars have their minds destroyed in the process. But those adventurers who pass the test will gain powerful forbidden power under the guidance of Hermoeus Mora.
