My name is Akatosh,
This mechanized army is quite spectacular.

Blackfall, middle part of Zac Tower, residential area.
Overall, Zak Tower should be an exhibition hall, but this cannot explain why its middle and lower floors are set up as residential areas. There are single rooms on these floors that are so narrow that they can only accommodate simple stone beds, and some. The bedroom was furnished with numerous furniture and multiple exquisite metal beds. Perhaps the dwarves were divided into nobles and commoners.
After taking Arthur, who strangely fell into a coma after reading the Elder Scrolls, to this level to rest, everyone tried various treatment methods, but none worked, because his symptoms were "extreme mental and physical exhaustion and unable to be revived." , basically he can only wait until he is full of sleep.
Out of curiosity about this result, Arthur and his companions who considered themselves powerful watched the Elder Scrolls one by one. Ella said she saw a hunting ground, Sophie said she saw a lot of delicious food, and Jane Ra Sai did not dare to open the scroll, but Lydia only saw a vast white patch from the scroll.
"Although Arthur had an accident, your attack plan should not stop. After all, we are just unexpected visitors." Lydia said to Galeb on the side: "So, we plan to keep Sophie and Babas takes care of him, and the rest of the gang is still with you.”
"Indeed, I have to stop Virsho before he awakens the demon or something worse happens," the Snow Elf Paladin replied: "I know that person. If there are setbacks when executing something, it will be difficult to achieve the goal. He Probably nothing will happen, but if this thing goes very well, he will be bored enough to make some inexplicable developments."
"Such as counterattacking the surface?" Ella interjected.
"The possibility is not small," Galeb raised his eyebrows: "There seems to be a stalemate among three parties on the ground. If he converts enough soldiers, he may intend to get involved, but I don't think [Sgrammer] will It will be ignored.”
Although that adult doesn't care much about current affairs and has no interest in the plans of the high elves, if the old opponent from thousands of years ago reappears, he will most likely be happy to "jump down" again. Lydia looked at her shield The "relief" on the surface thought.
Squeak - The metal door of the temporary ward slid open to the side, and Septine walked in silently, with a solemn look under his hood.
"The escaped vampire king was not found," he said: "The burning traces disappeared after a certain distance, out of thin air."
"Well, this is another uncertain factor. Maybe he came for the Elder Scroll, or maybe he was just spying on us. That behavior was just a temporary act, so my attack plan cannot be postponed, otherwise it will change," Galeb Standing up: "I'm going to make preparations for departure. If you still plan to help, I'm very welcome, but someone has to stay and take care of Arthur. Isn't it inappropriate to just have his daughter and the dog?"
"Well..." Lydia looked at Jane Russell, who still regarded them as "an adventure team organized by Baron Arthur", and decided to tactfully reveal some information: "Actually, we have kept all our strongest combat capabilities. "
"Okay." Galeb showed some doubts, but did not ask further: "Then, I will activate the mechanical guard army. Are you willing to be a witness?"
In fact, this was his original plan. He was surrounded by mutated snow elves and machines that couldn't speak. No matter what major things he did, there was no one to share with him. Therefore, even if he met not us but any adventurers, , as long as the relationship is not directly hostile, he will receive a warm reception.
"It's a great honor." Lydia replied.
"Why are you the one who came forward to communicate on our behalf..." Ella muttered softly.

Blackfall, underground in Zac Tower.
Although Blackfall itself is located underground, it does not mean that it cannot continue to dig downwards. Below the surface of Zac Tower is another deeper underground space. Judging from its weird shape, it is obvious that it once connected many dwarves. The ruins have collapsed a lot due to disrepair. The whole thing looks distorted and weird, but it has enough space to hold an army.
——An army composed of densely packed spherical guards.
This underground space is close to Zac Tower, and Galeb is leading several people who want to participate in this "war" through a metal corridor.
"I feel a little uncomfortable." Ella glanced at the spherical guards who had not yet transformed, and tilted her head.
"You can stay and take care of the Baron." Lydia said.
"You're kidding. Now that you're here, why would I stay?" The huntress turned to glare at her.
"Oh." Lydia responded without trying to ask further. She would participate in this operation only after confirming that the Baron was very safe. She came here to complete the plan that the Baron originally planned to execute. It was completely consistent with the behavior of a guard. standards, but Ella's reason "I'll go if you go" is very confusing.
"With so many spherical guards, could it be that you have found the dwarf's mechanical control center?" Jane Russell couldn't get in the conversation, so she asked Galeb who was leading the way.
"No," the Paladin replied: "If I could control that kind of place, 'Twilight City' should be half destroyed by its own various mechanical devices, which are just a continuous 'call for help' to some of the guarded exits over the years. The results produced.”
"Then it's time to test the results," Septim said, completely unaffected by the dense spherical guards and looking at them calmly: "Are there tens of thousands in number?"
"About six thousand," Galeb replied: "Since their combat effectiveness is worrisome, they must be at least ten times the combat effectiveness of 'Twilight' to have any chance of victory."
"There are only more than four thousand people in the entire Snowrun City!" Jane Russell exclaimed in a low voice, and then covered her mouth when Galeb looked back at her.
"However, quantity is meaningless sometimes," Galeb continued: "For example, if I read it correctly, anyone in your team can put it down as long as they are given enough time and weapons. This dwarf mechanical army was wiped out."
"Hmm... Indeed." Aila thought for a moment and actually admitted: "Their threat alone is not great to adventurers. Even if they are besieged, there are only a few who can attack at the same time."
"And Versho used [Blood Thistle] to control many adventurers who mistakenly went underground. If my estimate is correct, there are about nearly a hundred people?" Galeb looked at Jane Russell.
"When we are in the city, we can only move in the lower level, and the scope of action is limited, but I have seen at least more than twenty adventurers." The dark elf thought for a while and replied.
"So, your main task is to control those adventurers and prevent them from causing harm to the guarding army." Galeb nodded to Ella and Lydia: "Fortunately, they are able to fight effectively under control. There will be a discount, but please try not to kill those people, they should be back to normal after I destroy the cathedral and the 'Black Sun'."
"Well, I still remember some devices that can control people, which should be able to help." Jane Russell nodded.
After a few brief conversations, Galeb led everyone to a metal platform. On it was a giant mechanical console that was very similar to the one in the Stink Tower. After observing it for a while, he took out a silver-white round The disk was inserted into a groove on the console.
Steam - steam - steam - click - click - click -
With the platform as the center, there seemed to be an invisible wave spreading out. Wherever this "wave" passed, all the spherical guards began to deform, and then turned their "eyes" to the platform in the center. Thousands of guards were doing this at the same time. This uniform movement, like a large field of sunflowers turning towards the sun that has just emerged from the clouds, amazed the visitors on the platform.
Since the audience was just a group of machines, Galeb did not give a morale-boosting speech. He simply waved his hand and ordered: "Let's go!"
Boom boom boom - the surrounding stone walls moved away, and several upward slopes appeared, and the spherical guards then lined up in an orderly manner and left the ground along those slopes.
Click! Click! Just when everyone thought that these combat capabilities were all, more than a dozen tall centurions walked out from the corners of the underground space. Every step they took could cause the ground to tremble.
"These are the means I originally planned to use to contain those adventurers, but now it seems that they can be used in a more suitable place." Galeb said.
So, he has basically arranged everything, and our arrival is just an opportunity to launch an attack, Lydia thought.
"Such a big movement cannot be hidden underground. Please follow me." Galeb watched the centurions leave the underground space, and then led everyone to a nearby elevator.
The exit of this elevator is not Zac Tower, but on a cliff near the road. From a high position, you can see many metal guards emerging from hidden underground passages and gradually converging.
"Are we going to rush outside the Twilight City in advance and cooperate with them when the army arrives?" Ella guessed, looking at the neatly lined up spherical guards.
"No, we must arrive early and attract as much attention as possible, especially those capable adventurers," Galeb waved his hand: "And they are the ones with us."
"Gah-scare!" Dozens of mutated snow elves wearing dwarf metal armor came out of the nearby darkness and roared twice, probably to say hello to their leader.
"I want to keep an eye on Versho and stop him before he takes action, so he cannot participate in regular battles," Galeb walked towards Twilight City first and said at the same time: "After the battle begins, these compatriots also please You guys took care of me a little bit.”
"Of course, no problem." Ella answered quickly.
