Lu Yuan sighed, "Then, as you wish!"
As he spoke, endless brilliance rose into the sky, illuminating the mine like a golden palace.
The slaves were so shocked by the changes that they couldn't make any sound. Unbelievable things suddenly appeared in front of them! The traveler who fell into the mine suddenly emitted a dazzling light and turned into a human-shaped luminous body.
"He" was floating in the air, lowering his head as if looking down at everyone.
When "he" began to speak, every slave was moved to tears - because it was Hircine's voice, Hircine was speaking! Even in the happiest dreams, I have never dreamed of a scene... Just because of the slave's request, my Lord actually came in person!
"I say, you will not be bound by anything!"
The iron chains on all the slaves immediately broke apart, and then shattered into countless iron filings layer by layer! Immediately afterwards, the entire mine turned over, and all the mineral layers were buried infinitely deep underground, while the top of the cave was torn open into the sky several kilometers long, and a wide avenue leading to the outside world reached the top of the cave!
"I say you should have a healthy body."
Everyone felt a huge vitality pouring out of their bodies, sweeping away the fatigue accumulated over countless years! Not only that, their hidden wounds were healed, their sight was restored, their white hair turned gray, and their broken limbs were reborn!
"I say, go west, and you will have a new start in Falkreath. If there is anyone like you on this journey, I ask that you lend a helping hand - and if anyone dares to stand in the way, call my name!"
The leading slave leader was the first to lie on the ground and started to cry loudly. Dozens of slaves knelt behind him and cried together! After venting his anger, the slave leader once again led those people to formally worship and sing praises to the descending holy being.
It wasn't until Hircine's light dissipated that he led those people to climb to the top of the cave, and the group of people walked westward without looking back...
Lu Yuan did not leave, he just hid on the side, watching silently as those people walked out of the mine and became free people. When they left the mine, Lu Yuan could see the eyes of those people. Each one was full of love. Hope, crystal clear!
Hircine has forty-three fanatical followers since then.
Some people may say that Lu Yuan gave these slaves three opportunities before and they failed to seize them - according to Lao Lu's petty character, he should tease these people severely first and then reach out to help. His guess was correct, but the reason why Lu Yuan did this actually stemmed from some experiences he had when he was an ordinary person.
When he was still a programmer, he accidentally met a petitioner who was stranded in the capital.
We can imagine what kind of life that person lived... That person was sued from the county and province all the way to the capital, handcuffed to a radiator, entered a mental hospital, and was detained and deported on a daily basis. However, the man actually persisted in this kind of life for almost ten years. Later, the man became a little mentally confused - the official he wanted to sue had actually been arrested (because of other things), but he just didn't believe it. Even if someone comes from his hometown, or even relatives and brothers bring newspapers for him to read, he doesn't believe it!
He only believed in one thing. He would not go back until the State Council accepted his petition... This kind of obsession was so similar to these people!
Are these slaves really stupid? Not sure.
They are just tortured by this world and no longer believe that anything good will happen to them, nor do they believe in any miracles! The only thing they believed in was Hircine, who brought them bread and hope. Such a person is worthy of Hircine to save.
What did you say? Encourage them to awaken to their class and resist oppression? Encourage them not to rely on heaven, earth, or God, but to rely on themselves? Big brother, what you are talking about is proletarian revolution... what Hirsing is doing now is feudal theocracy, thank you!
Slaves can be liberated, and people can have food and clothing, but all this must be under the glorious guidance of God. Only by having faith can you be saved.
Because what feudal theocracy emphasizes is that all people in the world are little lambs, lost and helpless. The empire cannot save the world, and studying medicine cannot save the world. Only God can save the world... Never be in a place where there are gods. No matter what kind of ism the world engages in, I don’t know how they will die when the time comes.
"What I'm eating now is just a bunch of shit... vomit~"
Ella originally thought that the piece of bread would not be too unpalatable if soaked in vegetable soup, but she didn’t know that after soaking in vegetable soup, the texture would become “richer”! Paired with most of the remaining bread, he kept writing the narration - "sticky~sticky~".
It’s impossible not to think about it in that direction... Ella feels like she’s living in hell!
"Evening Star, give me some of yours... Huh? Why didn't you eat the bread?" Ella looked at Evening Star in surprise. What was cooked in front of Evening Star was a small pot of oatmeal porridge, with some sweet fruits picked at hand mixed into it. There were two slices of bacon spread out on the surface of the porridge. This was all Evening Star had for lunch. "Where's your delicious, milky bread?"
That kind of sweet and soft milk bread makes Ella drool just by talking about it, and even the lump in her mouth seems to be less unpalatable. Every time she ate the kind of bread from Evening Star, she wanted to scream twice - "Oh my God, how can there be such delicious bread in the world! If I could eat it every day, the old man wouldn't even give me the money to exchange it for the city lord." !”
"Ah, I don't really like to eat food that is too sweet. Now that it's out, of course I'll try something lighter." In Yuevaska (where the Comrades are based), Evening Star's god-given bread is too famous. Because there were so many people waiting to eat the butter bread every day, she had to make some every day. Because it is food given by God, she herself has to use this bread as her staple food. She has been suffering from it for a long time and has been waiting for the opportunity to improve her food.
"How could anyone not like to eat it? Even the king can't eat such good bread." Ella's face was full of disbelief.
"You'll know after you eat too much." Duixing said noncommittally. On the Dawn, during wartime, in order to quickly replenish physical energy, the ship served heavy-tasting food that was high in sugar and heat. This kind of food will taste so delicious at first...but it will soon make you want to vomit and lose your sense of taste.
But there is no way, war is a game to test who can tolerate junk food better...
"Want some?" Duixing filled the oatmeal porridge with a big spoon and placed it on the coffin board in front of Ella.
Yes, the place where two young women were enjoying dinner and chatting happily was actually inside a Nord tomb.
The underground tombs in the Elder Scrolls world are quite large in area. The underground palaces are winding and sometimes unfathomable - it cannot be explored in one day. The location they are currently in is the central part of an ancient tomb that was cut off by an underground water explosion. Because almost all the ancient corpses were washed away by the water, it is relatively clean and tidy here. As long as you climb to a high place and move those stone coffins, you will be a good campsite.
"Dustman's Cairn", friends who have played The Elder Scrolls Skyrim must still remember this mission - going deep into the ancient tomb to find the "Fragments of Uthrad", the introductory mission of the Comrades.
The story in the Elder Scrolls world is obviously less epic than the Mass Effect world.
Its tasks are almost all to clear a certain location, obtain a specific item, etc. This mode does not make much progress even if it is changed to the real world. Some slightly more special tasks just reflect the "tangle of human nature"... they don't mean much. In an era when everyone doesn't even have enough to eat, some people are actually struggling with human nature, giving people the impression that "you are so full that your balls hurt when you are idle".
Who will sympathize with you? There is no sense of substitution at all.
Of course, there is also a type of demon mission, which is the mission related to the annihilation of the demon god in the world.
This kind of mission is basically a double stare - usually there are only two results: result 1, the devil's plan fails, then the world will turn around; result 2, the devil's plan succeeds, and then the world will turn upside down. There are 16 inconspicuous demon gods in this world (only 14 are left now), and ordinary people have nothing to do about it. Just like a country built on an earthquake zone, even if an earthquake occurs once a month, it is a natural disaster. As long as there is no Lu Chen, everyone should continue to do whatever they want.
The original goal of the mission "Dustman's Cairn" was to lift the werewolf curse on the eldest brother of the comrades, Korak Whitebeard, so that the old man could go to Songard to retire. But the problem is that now Hircine doesn't insist on things after death, so naturally there is no need. What's more, the crow hag who can lift the curse received a special oracle from Hircine and disappeared from the entire continent. Can't find it now.
Now it's because Duskstar wants to join the Comrades. According to the tradition of the Comrades, she must complete a test mission accompanied by a "shield friend" before she can become a formal member. It happened that Hircine gave Korak an oracle to ask for the "Wuthlad Ax", and then the two of them appeared in the Dustman Tomb.
This centuries-old tomb has long been dilapidated. The smoke from the bonfire flew upwards in a spiral until it was sucked away by some cracks, showing how "good" ventilation the place has.
Many ancient ghouls, Nord ghoul heroes, etc. were born in the tombs, and even a ghoul king!
If an ordinary legendary warrior comes to explore, he will definitely spend a lot of time, and if he is not careful, he may even lose his life here! But in the hands of Evening Star, the only legendary priest in this world, the situation becomes devastating - a large-scale "transcendence of the undead" can purify multiple ghoul kings! For this exploration, Duixing prepared a dozen "salvation of the undead" magic! For the legendary priest, ordinary ghouls are even less threatening. As long as they touch her breath, they will be wiped out!
"I'll purify the bad environment again, and then go to sleep first." By the campfire, Duixing, holding a blanket, told Ella. "You stay here until midnight, and wake me up when it's time to change the shift." Duixing casually snapped his fingers, and a circle of light, colorless and transparent ripples rippled around the camp, quickly sweeping across most of the tomb. Several corpses that were still struggling to climb out of the coffin were turned into powder in the ripples.
"Leave it to me." Ella hugged her bread and said without raising her head - she had now found a new pleasure, which was to chat with the bread.
"Wait a minute," Muxing suddenly changed her mind. She stretched out her hand and actually grabbed Ella by the waist and forced her into her arms!
"You, what are you going to do?" Ella was so frightened that her bread dropped when her arms were wrapped around her waist.
She watched helplessly as the smiling Duixing approached her. In the end, the two of them were face to face, and their lips almost slammed together! But Ella could only blush, but her whole body felt weak, unable to do anything, and she even lost the courage to push the arm away.
She watched helplessly as Duxing's lips brushed against hers and stopped by her ears. The hot breath made Ella suffer from hypoxia. "No, I'm not ready yet..."
"Ambush, at least twenty people, with twelve longbows pointed at us." Evening Star whispered in her ear. From the outside, only two extremely beautiful women could be seen hugging each other by the bonfire, rubbing their temples together and occasionally whispering, and the pink atmosphere filled the ancient tomb.
"What... is it Silver Hand?" Ella responded confusedly at first, then suddenly woke up, and the hunter's instinct returned to her.
"No, it's the Thalmor elf. You won't forget what's engraved on that ax, right?" Duskstar whispered. If it hadn't been for the last purification, she wouldn't have even known that she was quietly surrounded by elves. Evening Star is better at fighting on jungle or village terrain, but he still has too little experience in this type of catacombs. And the people of Skyrim are obviously very good at fighting in tombs.
"..." Ella was speechless. How could she forget this?
The legendary double-sided ax "Uthrad" is the weapon of Sgramer, the founder of the Comrades.
That guy is a famous "elf hater". He calls his ax "Elf Slayer". It is said that there is a motto engraved on the axe, "Kill elves, kill elves, keep killing elves!"
It would be fine if ordinary people were reforging this axe. It is just a legendary weapon, and the elves may not care at all! But now it is the demon god Hircine who is collecting the fragments of "Wuthrad" with great fanfare! The meaning is completely different. The Thalmor elves have to fight tooth and nail to stop it!
"I will block the first wave of attacks, and then I will roll you into the sarcophagus while you seize the time to transform into a werewolf." Duixing whispered in her ear. The bonfire was lit on the lid of a sarcophagus. The sarcophagus was half opened and was a good bow and arrow shelter just a few steps away from the two of them.
But for some reason, Ella suddenly panicked after hearing Duixing's arrangement.
"No, no! I, I will stop the first wave! You transform...you can't transform...then do you have any other magic?"
"Don't be ridiculous!" Duixing scolded Ella in a low voice. She could hear Ella's reluctance to transform, but she couldn't guess the reason for Ella's resistance.
But now we are under siege. If we don't handle it properly, Evening Star will be fine, but Ella may be hit hard. The safest way is to transform her into a werewolf with twice the strength, body, agility, and blood! "My magical spells are all prepared for the undead, and I feel that they have begun to become suspicious... Be prepared!"
"Okay," Ella agreed reluctantly.
"Do it!" Duixing shouted!
She slapped her palm on the stone ground, and the white light shield disappeared in a flash, but it happened to stop seven long arrows flying silently! Then Evening Star hugged Ella hard and rolled forward! "Duh! Duh! Duh!" was heard continuously, and the second wave of five arrows seemed to be chasing them, and a series of arrows penetrated their rolling shadows.
The roots of those long arrows penetrated several inches into the rock, which shows how powerful the arrows are! It's a pity that no matter how fast the bow and arrow are, they can't catch up with Mu Xing's judgment.
Just after the arrow rain passed, the two people had already rolled into the sarcophagus. Finally, Mu Xing's legs hooked, and the two swords held by the bonfire flew up, followed by the two figures and fell into the sarcophagus, and were firmly caught by Mu Xing!
At the same time, she also felt that the woman in her arms had completed her transformation, and the explosive power radiated out in all directions! Then it’s time to fight back!
But... after the werewolf transforms, won't he turn into a muscle/stick that is four or five meters high? Duixing felt that the figure in her arms had barely changed its shape. Why? Without having time to think about it, she crossed her swords and flew off the sarcophagus lid. In the midst of her busy schedule, Duixing took advantage of the light of the flying bonfire and glanced sideways at Ella - but what she saw made her feel like she was hit hard!
Even the two swords in his hands almost flew out!
"You, what are you doing?!" Duixing asked in shock.
After transforming into a werewolf, Ella's appearance didn't seem to have changed much - except for her big, watery eyes; except for the short furry ears on her head; except for a small section of her wagging tail, and Those long strands of beard around the mouth...
All of this tells an extremely obvious fact - "The ultimate cute thing! Please take care of me, be cute, and warm the bed!"
"Remember? Hircine said in the oracle that he likes the beast-eared girl... Oooh~ I hate Hircine!" Ella, who had transformed into a cute creature, almost burst into tears. You must know that the change of "Beast Ear Girl" is not only in her face. After the transformation, her breasts were three times bigger and her waist was two times thinner!
Now let her rush out like this, she would rather die.
But that soft voice and tearful expression... are getting more and more adorable!
