My name is Akatosh,
...When did Sister A adjust to the legendary difficulty?

"Report, the female assassin was blocked in the emergency escape route of Dule Castle."
"Additional report, the female assassin used smoke grenades and then fled."
"Report, an ambush has been set up to surround another male assassin hiding in the farm outside the city."
"Additional report, the male assassin transformed into a werewolf and broke through the siege."
"The pursuit team reported that the captain seriously injured the female assassin, but the male assassin suddenly broke out. The captain was defeated and injured, and the opponent took the opportunity to escape."
"The patrol reported that they found traces of suspected male and female assassins, but were unable to trace them."
"No trace found."
"everything is normal."
"Nothing unusual."
Dugu City, Aomao Villa, living room.
Tuka Yagemi, who had changed back to civilian clothes, was looking through the reports of the past few hours in the temporary intelligence room. It seemed that although the field staff successfully blocked these assassins several times, they still lost their traces in the end.
This is not too surprising, because judging from the woman's attire and acting style, she is probably the "Dark Brotherhood", an indigenous assassin organization in Skyrim Province. It would be strange if she could be easily caught by the patrol.
"Hahaha," Uriel Septim II, who was wearing home clothes and passing by the door with two guards, suddenly turned his head and said, "The decoration and furnishings in this villa are almost the same as those in my palace in the capital of the empire. Same, it seems Emil still cares about me."
"This villa was given to her by the Blue Palace, and the decoration and furniture were arranged by Sharp-Eyed Eagle." Yagmi said.
"Well, really..." The emperor was speechless for a moment.
Normally, the emperor should live in the palace inside the Blue Palace, or simply stay on the Catariel, but since there was an assassination attempt, these two planned locations were not very suitable. In the end, Yagmi decided to stay. Entering Princess Emilia's villa, I was quite disappointed because Her Royal Highness basically didn't live here, so I couldn't tell how she was living through traces of her life.
"Are you still pursuing them?" The emperor glanced at the pile of reports in front of Yagmi: "There are so many people who want to kill me. Even if an organization that can pay to hire them can trace them, it will be meaningless."
"Haha," Commander Sharp-Eyed Eagle patted one of the intelligence reports on the Dark Brotherhood: "Sitting in the position of the Emperor, there will naturally be many people who want to kill you, but you can 'think' and 'do' But no, while tracking down the mastermind, he must severely cut off his outstretched hand. This is also a warning to other guys with wandering thoughts."
"Do what you want." Although the emperor hesitated, he was not willing to put in a good word for the person who wanted to assassinate him. He waved his hand and continued to visit the villa.
"Speaking of which... there is something quite suspicious," Yagmi picked up a report again: "The male assassin 'turned into a werewolf' and then 'outburst' again? Even if it is because his wife is in danger, it is impossible to break through his own The limit is right, unless—they have a third accomplice: a magician who has mastered strengthening magic."
——16:27——
"Sorry, Ironboyn, I should have thought that the emperor could not be assassinated so easily."
Ironbjorn transformed into a giant white wolf and ran away on all fours, while Astrid lay weakly on his back, and his voice was broken.
The emperor had arrived, but the alert level had not been raised, allowing her to sneak into the kitchen and banquet hall easily. It was not until the sharp-eyed eagle's guard captain appeared to stop her when she was about to succeed.
At that time, she thought that the other party was just like that, and it seemed that the commander was unwilling to expose this matter in front of many nobles, so she planned to escape through the reserved emergency passage with the attitude of "come back next time". As a result, an ambush was waiting in the passage. With a large number of sharp-eyed eagle elites, she almost caught her on the spot.
When she rushed to the stronghold disguised as a farm outside the city, she happened to see Ironboyn fighting his way out of the siege in blood. Then she was surprised to find that in fact, every move she made was completely controlled by the opponent, and the traps were laid out just waiting for her. Plunge in.
What made her most desperate was the clear division of labor between those sharp-eyed hawks who pursued her. Even if she deliberately exposed her flaws when she was discovered, no one took advantage of her and attacked her. They just maintained the encirclement while calling for support.
Is this the true strength of Sharp-Eyed Eagle? Could it be that half of the sharp-eyed hawks sent to Skyrim in advance were guys who had no fighting ability and were only good at taking care of children?
Finally, when the captain of a pursuit team took action, she completely discarded the idea that "if she had fought with the wary commander at that time, she might have succeeded."
Astrid and Ironboyn were obviously alert to their surroundings and looking after each other's backs when they were escaping, but just when they heard her husband utter a cry of surprise, she was stabbed from behind by a thin sword. If it hadn't been the one who did it, The guy had a bit of a bad temper and said something in her ear, "Captain of the Sharp-Eyed Eagle Pursuit Force, Death greets you. Do you feel that things are unstable?", and then Ai was suddenly "mad" and turned into a giant wolf. Umberjorn knocked him and his sword away, and she was probably dead.
Even if the wound was dealt with and treated immediately, the injury was not enough to continue fighting, so Astrid could only lie on the back of the giant wolf and let it escape, using the speed of the giant wolf to gradually get rid of those Chasing troops.
But what alarmed Astrid was that Ironbjorn was completely unable to speak in this form. He could only respond with a low wolf howl in response to her instructions, and she did not dare to ask him if he could change. Come back, if the answer is no, she simply doesn't know how to face him in the future.
Will actions without the protection of the Night Mother only lead to this kind of result? Unwilling to give in... Astrid buried his face in the down on the wolf's back and remained silent for a long time.
"Ouch...ow..."
Ironbjorn seemed to be planning to say something, but Astrid could not understand the meaning of the wolf howl at all, so he could only answer according to his own understanding and guess: "What's the next plan? Return to the sanctuary as soon as possible and notify Everyone evacuates. With the execution efficiency of those guys, it is only a matter of time before they find the sanctuary, and I can’t guarantee what they will do.”
"Ugh, bluff-" The giant wolf suddenly stopped and lay down on the ground. Before Astrid asked, he had already heard the movement in front of him.
"This is already close to Xueman Leader, right? Why does the elder sister want us to patrol here?"
"Stop talking nonsense. If you have any objections, go to the elder sister and raise them yourself."
"No, I don't want to die yet."
Sharp-eyed hawk? in front of? Has the commander-in-chief planned this far in advance? Astrid's palms were sweating as he leaned tightly against the giant wolf.
However, judging from the atmosphere of the conversation between them, it was completely different from the sharp-eyed hawk they met not long ago. Maybe they would only become serious in a fighting state?
No matter what Astrid thought, the team of about three or four people was approaching her. There was no point in hiding or escaping. Ironboyn was too big, and the low trees could not stand at all. Can't cover it.
He had lost his ability to fight due to serious injuries, and Ain Boyorn had no doubt that he had no physical strength after running for so long.
Just as she was thinking about it, Astrid felt her body light up, and Einberjorn turned her head and took him off her back. She saw her husband, who had turned into a giant wolf, give her a decisive look and turn around to face the opposite direction of the team. Rush away.
"No-" Boom!
Before Astrid could say anything to stop him, Ironboyn hit an ice wall and fell to the ground dizzily.
"Really, I saw a sad drama when I first came here. How about this?"
"Stop your mage pride."
"It's like you're not a mage."
The ice wall shattered, and two young women walked out of the ice mist. One of them had a black helmet and a look of disgust on her face. She was obviously Jeanne d'Arc or Jeanne d'Arc, and the other He was wearing the robe of the Chief Mage of the Mage Academy, with black hair and black eyes, holding a gorgeous staff. He seemed to be the Baron of Winterhold, Zella Pesh?
"Let's talk about the pleasantries later. Let's deal with the Sharp-Eyed Eagle patrol over there first." Joan of Arc tugged on the sleeves of Zera's robe.
"Hmph, you 'Sino Scholars' always want to save everyone. It's really troublesome." The female mage raised her staff, and a faint white light shield enveloped the three people and one wolf present.
The next moment, three teams wearing Eagle Scout leather armor passed in front of them, but they didn't even take a glance at the weird situation here.
"Thank you, we-" Normally, Astrid would not be too polite to a mage who could be killed with one sword without any defense, but the other person was the Baron of Winterhold, the chief mage of the academy, and he had just saved I can only express my gratitude first.
"I am very dissatisfied with your style of killing people for money without asking for any reason. If Joan of Arc hadn't come to me, I would have definitely left you to fend for yourself." Zela turned to Joan and said, "You owe me again once."
"We are all our own, why do you know so much? Are you short of money? Shall I give it to you?" Joan of Arc kept her disgusted face.
"Hmph, in short, this invisibility shield should be able to last until you leave the encirclement, and I won't follow you." Zelapesh turned his staff and pointed at Einbjorn, blue light flashed, and the giant white wolf transformed back into To an ordinary werewolf: "That's an advanced transformation. If you're not strong enough, it's better not to use it."
"Let's go to the sanctuary to play together?" Jeanne d'Arc invited.
"No need, the academy still has research tasks, just help me beat that hey monster a few times." Zella shook her head repeatedly.
Although he was seriously injured, Astrid discovered with his keen intuition that there seemed to be a subtle incompatibility between the two of them. It seemed that they always had to wait for one to finish speaking before the other would answer, and the one who did not speak during this period seemed a bit awkward. Sluggish, what exactly is this...
But before she could analyze this discovery, Zerapesh had already teleported away, and Ironboyn had also woken up, so she simply put it behind her and began to prepare to continue her escape.
