My name is Akatosh,
There have been a lot of random intruders in the past two days.
——4E, 201, Hearthfire Moon, 11th, 22:31——
"let me go--"
"...Xiaofan was caught and floating in the air, about three meters high."
"Is this the time for analysis? Think of a solution quickly!"
Not long ago, Xiaofan and Emil pursued Mercer Frey and arrived at Dugu City, but the "hand of the demon" was still pointing firmly to the west. Emil proposed to enter the city directly, but Xiaofan relied on the experience of the last operation. Insist on continuing to follow the instructions of the demon hand.
After that, the two of them wandered around the snow-capped mountains to the west of Dugu City for nearly a day according to the direction pointed by their fingers, but they did not find any hidden caves like last time.
After making marks along the way and recording the path on the map, Xiaofan discovered that they were being led around the "8" by the hands of the demons.
After confirming that the demon hand was malfunctioning, Xiaofan was about to ignore its instructions and go directly to Dugu City, but was directly "grabbed" by the hand.
The "Demon Hand", which is only slightly larger than an ordinary person's hand, is naturally unable to directly catch people with its own power - Xiaofan is suspended two or three meters in the air out of thin air, and it is at a higher place Maintain a posture of carrying something and move in sync with her.
Xiaofan herself didn't feel that she was being grabbed by any force. She just felt that the Guild Master's leather armor on her body was flying towards the sky, so he picked her up. Since the situation was not urgent and there was no danger at a height of two or three meters, she I haven't thought of cutting my clothes and escaping yet.
"Can you attack that hand? Try destroying it?" Xiaofan shouted to Emil, who had been following below.
"...You can't attack. It was given by Sister Joan of Arc." The girl looked up at the hand and answered.
She couldn't attack, but there was no need to delve into the question of whether the attack was ineffective or she didn't want to attack. Xiaofan lowered her limbs feebly and remained silent.
A moment later, Xiaofan was grabbed by the hands of the demons and flew close to the intersection in the middle of the "8" cycle. The surrounding scenery was no different from before, and no ruins or caves with hidden entrances suddenly appeared.
Just when she thought she would continue to be carried in a circle, the demon's hand sank slightly as if it was accumulating strength, and then it carried Xiaofan and flew straight into the sky.
"So it turns out that the reason we haven't been able to find the place is because the destination is in the sky?! Emil, hurry up -" Xiaofan exclaimed for a while and then interrupted himself, because Emil also flew straight up.
"...Wow." Although it was late at night and couldn't see clearly, the view of the entire Skyrim Province from a high altitude still made Emil exclaim a little.
So why was he being carried... Xiaofan glanced at the demonic hand above his head with resentment.
"[I'm sorry for treating you like this, Xiaofan]" As if she heard the complaints in Xiaofan's heart, a soft, slightly reverberating female voice sounded in her ears: "[Because I can't catch your friend.]"
"Then let me stand and take off together!" Xiaofan replied directly.
"[I will pay attention to it next time]" The female voice did not mean anything unpleasant about Xiaofan's complaint.
There is no doubt now. It is not that the demon hand is malfunctioning, but that it has been "taken over" by "someone else". How can a mere "demon" hand resist the requisition of the "demonic god"?
Hearing this demon speak in a female voice, Xiao Fan was already half relieved, because those irritable, cunning and dangerous demons basically appear as men or androgynous in appearance and voice, and there are more than 100 demons with female appearances. Half of them are not considered evil, such as Ms. [Nocturnal] whom the Thieves Guild believes in and Ms. [Azura] who has had contact with them - well, as long as they don't offend them.
At a height where they could almost see the Hammerfell and Cyrodiil provinces over the mountains, the "Demon Hand" stopped, and a platform made of pale white light appeared in mid-air. Xiaofan and Emil then slowly Drop down and land on it.
"[I am Meridia, I hope you can do me a favor]" The devil's next words made Xiaofan lose his other half of his heart. Meridia is the god of living things and vitality, and advocates death. The creatures should belong to the natural cycle, so they hate the undead extremely, and there has never been any record of killing the living.
"I am willing to serve you, madam." Xiaofan lowered his head slightly.
Emil didn't answer. She stepped on the ground a few times, confirmed the material of the light platform, and then started to circle around looking for something.
Buzz——
A weak buzzer sounded, and a huge, shining female figure appeared on the side of the platform. She had short blond hair, green eyes, a wreath of alfalfa on her head, and her clothes were cut to make it easier to move. , white robes decorated with many grass leaves, holding a long golden round-headed staff in one hand, and the other hand is supporting the platform of light they are standing on, and six huge golden light wings stretch out from behind.
I was probably the first person to see the true face of this demon god. Unfortunately, the difference in size was too big to tell what his appearance and temperament were... Xiaofan thought blankly.
"...willing to serve you." Emil tilted his head and stared at Meridia for a while before answering.
If the devil's appearance is not good-looking, why is this girl going to refuse? Xiaofan looked sideways.
"[My temple 'Kilcreas' became a battlefield many years ago. The two sides fought fiercely. In the end, no one survived. Out of pity for them, I completely sealed the temple and buried it deep. Deep underground.]" After receiving Emile's response, Meridia continued.
"[Not long ago, 'Wolf Heart Queen' Potema was summoned back from annihilation by her admirers. Although the summoning ceremony was interrupted and destroyed, her soul took the opportunity to get into my temple. Now it is full of The wandering undead, I need you to help them regain peace.]" Although Meridia was speaking, the huge female figure did not move her mouth at all. At this time, she just turned her eyes and glanced at Emil.
"[I cannot purify the temple with my own hands,]" Meridia explained as if before Xiaofan spoke: "[The temple has been desecrated by the power from the 'Soul Cairn'. If I take action to 'purify it' 'It, the overflowing twisted life energy will make all living people in Skyrim Province unable to die - they will become undead creatures at the moment of death.]"
Is there definitely an antidote grass near the so-called poisonous snake's lair... The demon god who hates undead creatures the most is also very good at creating undead creatures. Xiaofan nodded to express his understanding, and then asked: "So, what should we do?"
"[I will teleport you to the entrance of the temple. You only need to use your skills to eliminate 'Potema' and the commander of that army, 'Mokeran', and reach the deepest place. Then I will You can intervene.]" Following the Demon God's words, the small light platform began to emit fluorescent light, and the next moment, Xiaofan and Emil appeared in an underground ruins filled with black mist.
——12th, 4:50——
Generally speaking, humans will not take the initiative to build altars and temples for demon gods. Even if they have to do it out of fear and coercion, the scale will be relatively small and not comparable to the temple of the genuine Holy Spirit. However, [Merydia] But it seems to be an exception.
His "Temple of Kilcreas" is comparable in scale to the Temple of the Holy Spirit in Dugu City. Not only are there many rooms, they are even layered up and down. The blazing white light shining from the platform at the entrance is illuminated by every room. The round white stones as big as heads gathered and refracted, illuminating all the rooms that the two girls had cleaned one by one.
The undead creatures wandering in these rooms are common skeletons and corpses, but strangely they are completely black, and there is no blue fire in their eyes that symbolizes the vitality of the undead. After being defeated, they are directly absorbed by the black mist that spreads everywhere. disappear.
In this way, although it is possible to follow Meridia's instructions and sneak all the way to only defeat the culprit to complete the task, but in clearing the first room at the entrance, that light can completely eliminate the unpleasant-looking black fog in the ruins. After the injection, the next course of action has already been decided.
Cleaning away the dark undead creatures along the way, activating the white stone to clear the black fog, the two girls finally arrived at the hall with the altar at the deepest part of the temple. The blazing white light beam that had been accompanying them seemed to be swallowed up by something when it shined into the door. Disappeared, and in the bone-ridden hall, there were two tall corpses standing side by side. One was holding a short sword with an unknown black light in his hand, while the other was holding a staff that was constantly filled with black smoke. , at the moment the door opened, he simultaneously spoke to the girls at the entrance.
"Hehehe - the little girl of the Septim family, I said we will meet again -" "Oh~ the blood of the Leiter family, just so I plan to change my body, even a little girl can accept it~"
Septim? Royal Princess Emilia Septim? Xiaofan turned his head to look at Emil, only to find that Emil was also looking at him. Then he realized that his surname "Lette" was from a famous old noble in Windhelm City - although there is no one in that family now. .
One person per person, and we’ll talk about other things after it’s over? Xiaofan mouthed the words.
Emil nodded and disappeared instantly.
"Hahaha! It's useless! Those guys you 'killed' before have already remembered your scent~" Holding the staff, the female ghoul who should be Potema, Queen of Wolf Hearts, swung the staff suddenly. Many dark skeletons and corpses emerged from the black mist, and then all stared at Emil's sneaking position.
"Don't worry~ My descendants, this 'Life Destroyer' only needs a scratch to deprive living creatures of their lives. Your beauty will not be damaged in any way -" The other side should be called Mokran Leite , a male ghoul wearing heavy armor also rushed towards Xiaofan with a sword.
