Seeing the appearance of Busujima Yaozi from a distance, the stalwart Balgruuf, who was standing on the balcony of Longxiao Palace, felt a burst of bitterness in his mouth.
Politics requires balance.
In order to maintain this balance, when the High King of Skyrim and the Stormcloaks went to war, Whiterun City had been oscillating left and right on the surface, but in fact they were not helping each other, maintaining a de facto neutral position. Of course, maintaining this kind of aloofness is not just about thinking, it also requires strength and deterrence.
Whiterun City's food, White River water transportation, two deep-rooted families and city guards are Balgruuf's strength; while the comrades and the Sky Furnace are Whiterun City's deterrent force - no one can be sure that once Whiterun is attacked City, will it be attacked head-on by the comrades-in-arms group? Although the number of the comrades is not large, their ability to cause damage is absolutely huge. They are a hedgehog that no one wants to touch.
When Yako Busujima became a dragonborn and slaughtered resurrected dragons everywhere, she naturally became one of the threats to Whiterun City! Busujima is a dragonborn power awakened in Whiterun City, and no one knows that Busujima Yaozi actually rejected Balgruuf's solicitation. Therefore, when Baiman City hinted that Yazi Busushi was the baron of Baiman City, all the major city lords besides being envious and jealous, did not believe him - he was a strong man who could slay a giant dragon. If it were him, Will do it!
Of course, the most important thing is that Yako Busujima did not deny the rumors.
Of course, reality is not like the game, where one person can serve as the baron of multiple city lords. In reality, knighthood requires a loyalty ceremony, and you can only choose one. Busujima Yaozi is the baron of Whiterun City, which means that the stalwart has another nuclear weapon in his hands!
However, today, this nuclear weapon hit his head...
"Irelles, go discuss it with Busujima Yaozi and see if there is any misunderstanding." The stalwart paused here. He knew that the above words were all lies to himself and others.
Because Whiterun City is located in the hinterland of Skyrim Province, Poison Island would take the opportunity to replenish supplies every time he passed by after chasing dragons. They also try their best to provide support, and Busujima will not be polite to them. It can be said that the relationship between the two parties has always been maintained at the stage of friends. He has been in contact with Busushima more than once, and he knows very well what kind of character this girl is, and will never make trouble unreasonably!
"If, I mean if... Poison Island insists on preventing Whiterun City from sending troops, we can delay it for up to a week. This is the limit of retreat I can make!" Balgruuf said.
When the Empire and the Stormcloaks were at odds with each other, he had both sides. But when both sides shake hands and make peace, especially when the new High King of Skyrim is eager to establish his authority, and the Stormcloaks also want to take the opportunity to gain a foothold, it is very dangerous to continue to be a walleye. This time, he cannot help sending troops.
Baiman City is built on the mountain, and the terrain rises layer by layer.
Not to mention that the location of Longxiao Palace requires looking up. During thunderstorms, most of it is even submerged in the clouds; even the main road seems to be a sky street leading to the sky. Walking on the upper section of this road, you can see most of the city all the way to the city gate. Unobstructed view.
Irelles usually patrols with his guards, and he can get a general idea of the situation in Whiterun just by standing here.
At this moment, when she ran quickly along the main road towards the city gate, she saw Busujima Yazi standing in front of the city gate like a big mountain from a distance.
The officers below obviously would not wait for orders from Longxiao Palace before taking action. Irelles saw from a distance that first the four fully armed city gate guards rushed towards Busujima Yazi. Busudao didn't see any movement. She didn't even take out her sword and didn't even raise her head. The four city gate guards flew out in all directions. After hitting the surrounding buildings, they lay groaning on the ground, unable to get up.
The officer gave another order, and this time a team of twenty people rushed over with spears and guns! This time, they had already set up a battle formation, and the tip of the spear was poking at the vital parts of the girl's body without hesitation.
Irelles frowned. Twenty well-trained soldiers were not easy to deal with even for her.
However, she saw Busujima Yaozi's figure flash through the queue of the twenty-man team like a fleeting glimpse. She didn't move her upper body, moving only by her footsteps, and her body flew through the crowd like a bird. The speed is obviously not very fast, but it gives people a dizzying feeling - and then there is only a "dinging" sound, and the weapons of twenty people fall to the ground! Except for a few tough guys holding on, everyone among the twenty people held their wrists and cried out in pain! There was a red mark on it, and it became swollen.
Apparently it was drawn from the scabbard.
At this time, Irelles finally ran near the city gate. She sighed secretly and was about to call Busujima Yaozi. After all, they were only half friends, and she believed that Busudao could give her this face.
Little did they know that the war-mad officer was going crazy after being slapped twice in the face! The Zhan Kuang family is used to being domineering in Whiterun City, how can they bear to be humiliated in front of everyone, twice! He didn't even see Irelles running towards him. The officer of the Zhan Kuang family took off his battle ax and barked an order, "Vanguard, charge with me!"
The pioneer army of more than 200 people, one of the elites of Baiman City, roared and killed the Busu Island Yaozi who was blocking the city gate! Their eyes were red and they began to charge, not even caring about their comrades lying on the ground wailing. And the people from the Zhan Kuang family are at the front!
"Stop—" Irileth's words were stuck in his throat.
Irelles saw Busujima Yako raise his head. Facing the shouting of two hundred fierce Nords who rushed towards him, Busudao's eyes showed no fluctuation, and his expression... actually contained a hint of ridicule! From the beginning to the end, Yako Busujima did not let the sword out of its sheath, and she did not even put her hand on the hilt.
"Fus——" When Yako Busujima shouted this word, Irelles' mind went blank. "It's over..." were the only two words she could think of. "ro——da——!!!"
"Bang!" An invisible air wave spurted out from Busujima Yako's mouth, hit the charging military column, and then exploded! It's like a volcano erupting, and like the earth exploding! More than two hundred people were overturned by the gushing air waves, flying into the sky like fireworks, and then scattered in all directions, with weapons thrown everywhere!
The leading officer suffered the worst fate - he flew backwards for more than twenty meters and hit the goalpost of the "Drunken Orion" hard! Then the ax that also flew back struck him on his crotch pants, nailing him there... I don't know if any parts of it were damaged.
Seeing the elite 200-man army disappear in the blink of an eye, unable to resist the dragon slayer, Irelles only felt a bitter taste in his mouth! She knew that Balgrufu, who was standing in Yunxiao Palace watching at this moment, was probably even sadder than she was.
What makes her even more sad is that Yako Busujima's dragon roar has dealt a huge blow to the morale of Baiman City's army! When she stepped over the fallen soldiers and walked towards Busujima Yako, what she heard was not the roar of "I don't accept it, do it again if you dare!", but the weak "She is the legendary dragonborn! Dragon slaying" Who! How could we possibly defeat..." This kind of admission of failure.
The Nord's mythology had the opposite effect this time.
"Du Dao, you can go to Longxiao Palace to discuss with Barr first. We can discuss any requirements... Why do you have to go to this extent?" Irelles asked when he came to Du Dao, with a little questioning. The meaning is in it.
"Because my Lord has said," Yako Busujima remained expressionless as always, with a firm voice, "The sword is always more powerful than words!"
One sentence made Irelles feel choked up.
"Your lord," hearing this word again, Irelles suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment. They have always regarded the "Lord of Poison Island" as a powerful person, but now that they think about it... it is possible that he is a god! No, it should be said that it would be more reasonable if her master was a god. "Could it be His Majesty Hircine?"
"Of course," Yako Busujima admitted frankly. She already knew that Hircine and Master Tyrande were both incarnations of Lu Yuan, so there was no problem in naming them. "In this world, who else is worthy of being my lord besides him?"
The world is busy... You are simply knocking over the whole boat with one stick! I admit that what Hircine did three years ago was indeed amazing, but it didn't reach the level of contempt for the world, right?
"If the person you believe in on the Poison Island is His Majesty Hircine, then you should know that your master has been missing for three years, and it is probably more serious than that!" Irelles advised, "This time not only is the entire The Empire, even many Holy Spirits and Demon Gods are all involved, this time it is the Oracle! Why do you need to be buried with Hircine on Poison Island? Besides, even if you can stop Whiterun's army, you can't save Falkreath. Other cities will still send troops. .”
"Hmph~ You're so stupid and naive." After hearing Irelles' words, Busujima Yako couldn't help but sneer. "What's the worst? Do you know who my lord is? Do you know what he's been through before you dare to speak so brazenly! It's a million years too early for your lord to die! Besides, I'm telling you, I'm stopping you Whiterun City sent troops just because I wanted to save you! Do you know that I am the most petty person in the world? The grass on the graves of those who have provoked him has grown so high."
Busujima stood on his tiptoes, stretched out his hand and made a gesture as high as possible towards the top of his head.
"Really, I'm not lying to you!"
Can we still have a good chat?
Just when Irelles was being rebuffed by Busujima Yako for every word she spoke, she was getting more and more heartbroken and didn't know how to persuade her.
"Tap~tap~" The sound of a large number of horse hooves coming from behind made her turn around. "What's going on?" I saw a large number of knights, about fifty or sixty people, running towards the city gate along the main road of Whiterun City. Soldiers and pedestrians on the road tried to avoid them.
"Give way, give way! We are going on an expedition!" When the knight team came closer, Irelles heard Ella's famous loud voice, and his heart suddenly became even more stuffed. When she saw that almost the core of the comrades in the knight team were there, and even old Colac was fully armed, Irelles was more than heartbroken, she wanted to die! The dozen or so priests from the Temple of Genales (Holy Sky God) who followed the team made her feel confused.
"You, what are you... doing?" the guard captain asked with the last glimmer of hope.
"Of course it is to support Falkreath. The comrades will always protect the weak and uphold justice!" Ella rushed to say.
Faced with this famous fanatic of Hircine, Irelles was speechless. She knew that most of the comrades in arms were followers of Hircine. She originally thought that these people could weigh the pros and cons, but... she was surprised to see Evening Star wearing a white dress and riding a horse in the middle of the crowd. Location!
Evening star! The Evening Star that brought the dead golden trees of Whiterun back to life! In the hearts of the people of Whiterun, she can almost replace the status of the goddess Genales in the mortal world.
"Evening Star, you——"
"I'm sorry, Irelles." Evening Star nodded politely towards the guard captain, "I am the Patriarch of the Church of Hircine!"
