My name is Akatosh,
Those guys actually plan to do it at the same time?
——4e, 201, the last seed month, 30th, 20:12——
Lydia is so powerful, Arthur was chewing a fist-sized red fruit while driving.
The caravan we met this morning belonged to the kind of speculators who only conducted a simple market survey without asking the locals for specific information before they dared to rush to Skyrim Province with their goods. As a result, the goods were damaged under the attack of the giants. Less than half.
Indeed, Skyrim Province is very cold, and there are almost no more varieties except for a few cold-resistant fruits. The batch of tropical fruits they shipped from Cyrodiil Province should have made a lot of money, but there are also southern fruits here. Non-existent mammoths and giants. Although mammoths like to eat fruits, these cold-resistant varieties in the north all have thick fruit skins. If the giants who raise them don't get them, there is almost no chance of eating them. Then if they smell this completely You can eat it directly, but the smell of the fruit caravan is always wafting along the road.
After Arthur and his companions rescued and retreated and defeated the giant, the merchants not only gave him a carriage, but also a small half of fruit in the carriage. Seeing that Ella and the two girls were enjoying the meal, Arthur gave him some pointers. Give them a try - don't go to the market in the plain area. The simple and martial Nords can only have a taste of this stuff. It is most suitable to sell it directly to lords who often hold banquets. It will also make it easier for those nobles to brag everywhere. How to catch up with the lords of various places depends on their own abilities.
As for the giant that caused this incident, it is not an unknown person. It lives under the northern slope of Hanluo Mountain, in a depression called the "Dakul Shelf", and has allowed many poachers to return without success. It even suffered heavy losses. Since its location prevented the beasts from the southern mountains from descending to some extent, Xueman's guards never regarded it as a threat that must be eliminated. Even this time it was attracted by the fruit convoy and came down the mountain. The guards We also asked Arthur to just repel it.
Speaking of the hero who finally succeeded in repelling the giant - Arthur looked back, Ella was sharing fruit with the girls, Lydia was relying on her shield and closing her eyes to rest. The two of them were fighting side by side. The relationship seems to have improved a lot since then.
Although the giant is tall and strong, it still has limbs and organs similar to humans. Arthur, who uses a two-handed sword, cannot guarantee that he can repel it without causing too much damage. If he misses the kill, many wild animals may pass through. "Dakul's Shelf" entered the Snowman territory. Although the guards from the western tower could be responsible for driving them away, one more thing was better than one less thing, so he was ordered by his female companions to deal with the rough-skinned and thick mammoth that could not be cut.
After that, Lydia steadily caught every attack of the giant, while Ella accurately shot arrows at the position where the giant would not be injured or disabled, and finally succeeded in driving it away.
Although it is very easy to say now, the giants' powerful swings with tree trunks and various attacks from time to time when they rush up and kick them will make the people nearby feel the earth shake. In this case, facing them head-on Lydia still didn't panic or make any mistakes. At most, she would whisper "Hold on, hold on, hold on" in a low voice. Arthur couldn't imagine what kind of training she had received to reach the current level, but for her "protecting the Baron with her life" We have a deeper understanding of the declaration of "safety".
"Hey, don't fall asleep, we'll be in Loristed soon." Arthur saw Sophie and Ria holding fruits, their little heads moving little by little, so he called out.
"You can't carry a little girl on your back?" Ella said back to him.
Little girl? Well, Arthur shrugged and turned back to continue driving. Who knew why a young dragon would get sleepy at night like a little human girl? It was obviously late at night when he met her.
Logically speaking, with good horses and carriages, and taking the main road, it only takes one day to get from Snowman to Loristed. But the problem is that the carriage is also carrying fruits that attract mammoths. "Tree Camp", we attracted the mammoths and giants there, and it took a lot of time to get rid of them. Finally, when we could vaguely see the farmland and villages of Loristed in front of us, it was already completely dark. .
This was a bit troublesome. Arthur scratched his head, because the surroundings were pitch black with only starlight, and it was impossible for Ria to see the "farmland that could not be seen at a glance" that she had promised her. Also, because it was close to midnight, even though there were still people in the hotel, The chef works, but he can't do the "eat freely and make sure there's enough" promised to Sophie. As a large agricultural town that provides half of Xueman's food output, there should be enough ingredients, but no matter what the chef who met him for the first time Even after working overtime all night, people still saw Sophie eating raw lettuce with a bad look.
Now, the best way to deal with it is to take the two little girls directly to the hotel while they are sleepy and let them sleep. They can sleep until dawn and everything will be solved.
"Humph, a man who doesn't keep his promise." Ella despised Arthur, but took the initiative to hug Riya.
Although he felt that there was something in Ella's words, Arthur could only smile bitterly and hug Sophie, and asked Lydia to store the carriage and sell the remaining barrels of fruit.
"Baron, Miss Sophie seems to be very afraid of dragon corpses. Is this okay?" Lydia changed to the driver's seat and was about to drive towards the stables when she suddenly pointed ahead.
Arthur turned his head and looked. Not far away was the entrance to Loristed Village. There was a giant blue dragon standing on the central square, but relying on the faint light of the torches around him, he could see that it was just a dead one. , although the head was barely fixed on the neck, it could still be seen that it had been chopped off smoothly.
"Well, this should be done by the 'Dragon Slayer' of Loristed. It looks like a good technique." Arthur picked up Sophie: "But it doesn't matter, she is asleep now."
There is a similar monument in Snowrun City. It is the "Mirmenir" that Arthur himself destroyed in the Western Tower. Sophie refused to go near it when she was playing with her friends in the city - after all, she herself was A dragon.
Maybe Lydia already knew that the top leaders of the comrades were werewolves before she was sent to be the baron's guard. She had no doubts about Liya becoming a little wolf girl and the purpose of this mission, but Arthur was not sure. Make sure she doesn't know anything about his ability to transform into a dragon and Sophie.
Click, Arthur took a step forward and broke a branch on the road.
The distance of this step seemed to have just crossed a certain critical point. The blue dragon that was deliberately fixed with teeth and claws suddenly burst into flames. While the flames kept burning the dragon corpse, bursts of dark red light erupted from the giant dragon. The dragon corpses surged towards Arthur.
Ah, sure enough. Arthur was not too surprised when he absorbed the dragon soul again. Even if ordinary people killed the dragons, they would not be able to absorb their souls. After all, it was the special ability of the "Dragonborn".
Yol, this dragon language rune is completely formed in Arthur's mind, and he will not be able to use it until he transforms into a dragon. However, this rune seems to be breathing fire from his mouth? It seems to ruin the image and is not suitable for display in a place where there are many ordinary people.
Arthur was just thinking about something when he suddenly felt Sophie's body suddenly getting bigger and heavier, so he subconsciously let go of his hand.
Bang! The prototype of Sophie that had not been seen for a long time, the white dragon that was half the size of an ordinary dragon, appeared in front of Arthur. It watched blankly as Arthur sucked the dragon corpse into a skeleton, then screamed and fluttered its wings into the sky. fly away.
"[Dragon Language] Help—"
"Hahahaha!" Ella hugged Riya and fell down laughing. Riya was woken up and looked confused about the situation.
"I'm not that scary, am I?" Arthur touched his nose depressedly. It was true that he had never killed a dragon in front of Sophie. Sure enough, she was still subconsciously afraid of herself as a "dragonborn"?
"Even an ordinary child, if he wakes up and sees his father eating people, he will be frightened and run out of the door." Lydia seemed not to be surprised by Sophie's transformation.
"Anyway, I have to go get her back - no, wait, I learned a new way before." Arthur said while stopping Ella who was about to come over. After all, Riya had already woken up, that kind of almost It is better not to let children see the intimate actions.
"Humph——" Ella stared at Arthur dissatisfiedly for a moment, then turned her hostile eyes to Lydia.
Although I don’t know what Ella has misunderstood, the first priority now is to recover Sophie. As a dragon, there are no natural enemies, but if you encounter someone who can easily decapitate the dragon corpse in front of you, you will be in trouble.
"Kaan drem ov!" Arthur issued the Tumu he had previously obtained from the Jinales Golden Tree.
Huhuhu——It’s not an instant transformation without any intermediate process like being bitten by Ella, but you can clearly feel that you are constantly getting bigger and deformed, and finally turned into that huge red dragon. Because of this Unable to speak normally in his form, Arthur simply nodded to Ella and Lydia, fluttered his wings and flew into the night sky.
"Are you scared?" Ella came over with Ria, who was looking up in a daze, and said to Ladiya: "If you are scared, just go back. You have also seen that he does not need protection."
"It is better to say that it is expected. If the 'Dragonborn' who has not appeared for hundreds of years is an ordinary baron, I will be disappointed." Lydia looked back at Ella, with no intention of shrinking: "I will use My life protects the Baron."
"Hum." Ella angrily turned around and walked towards the villagers of Loristed who noticed the commotion gradually gathering, and started talking nonsense.
"Yes, there was a dragon attack just now. Maybe they were dissatisfied with the 'monument' you built and burned it down."
"That's right, Lord Dragonborn happened to be passing by. He just drove away the dragon and is now chasing him."
"Are you going to stand here asking questions all night, or are you going to invite us in to rest first?"
