The Journey of the Demon Hunter

The Vigilantes of Stendall, or, an organization similar to the Order, this is not a local organization in Skyrim. They come from all over the world, not just the Nords, the Empires, the Brighton people, the Red Guards, they are all Human. And their leader here is Kasiti, a guardian from Cyrodir. Unlike other vigilantes, the fur armor inlaid with steel and the two-handed hammer on the back show that Kasiti is not only an ordinary vigilante, but also a warrior.

"You are the messenger who sent Ebony Blade? What did Balgruf tell you?"

"Things are dangerous, be careful on the road."

"Only these."

"Of course, he thought it was not safe to put this thing in Longxiao Palace, so he entrusted me to send it here."

The headquarters of the Vigilant is in Cyrodir, which is just their branch in Skyrim. The demon hunter was arranged to stay here temporarily, waiting for several guards to discuss how to deal with this weapon. This is a bit boring. The vigilantes, no matter where they come from and what skin color they have, are so dull and serious. They either deal with clutter or pray to the Standal altar in the hall of the vigilante.

Although the guards were talking in low voices, it was not enough to escape the ears of the demon hunters. It seems that a lot of things have happened recently. The guards in Markas City lost contact, the guards in Solitary City lost their tracks at the pier near the North Tower Fortress, and the guard towers near Windhelm City have not sent news for three consecutive days. Only the fort near Shure Stone returned news. They seemed to be in trouble. Now, another dangerous ebony blade was sent here, and the guards in the hall seemed to be in a kind of anxiety.

Fortunately, there are one or two remember that there are people in the Hall of the Vigilant who do not belong to their cult, and they cannot just rely on prayer and chopping wood to pass the time.

Zelin was sitting at the side wooden table in the Hall of the Vigilant. He really didn't know what to do. The Guardian Kasiti believed that Zelin was not allowed to leave until he was confirmed to be safe. People are tight-lipped, and Zelin doesn't want to be treated as someone who likes to spy on secrets. Such people are not welcome anywhere, so the demon hunter had to find two books in the cabinet of the room.

Werewolf study and the book of demons. The previous book is about a scholar's record of studying the body structure and characteristics of werewolves. It mentioned the use of aconite grass against werewolves. The latter book tells about seventeen demons called Didra. In this book, the demon hunter saw a familiar name.

Mefala, she is civilized with web spiders and spiders. People know very little about her. Her only purpose seems to be to interfere with mortals for fun. And the name of the self-proclaimed Ms. Whisperer seems to be Mephala. Just a coincidence? Or is there another reason? But now it seems that the Ebony Blade has nothing to do with him, even if the voice is really the voice of the demon **** Mephala, it will not affect a little demon hunter.

"Are you reading a book?"

"It's not good to be in a daze at the sky all day."

Tolan is a Nord vigilant. From his clothes, we can see that he is not a newcomer. There are only a few people in the hall of the vigilante with two-handed warhammers, while the other vigilantes only have daggers and one-handed hammers. Weapons. From the outside, he is an ordinary Nord, about forty years old, with a beard, no different from other Nords, whether he is a vigilant or not, chatting with Tolan and businessman with Nord , Vendors, guards, or coachmen chatting are all the same.

"Is this what you are going to deal with?" Zelin shook the book of the devil in his hand. "Werewolf, vampire, witch, demon, plus the devil. Phew~ It's wonderful."

"Did you see the huge statue on the other side of the mountain?" The vigilant did not answer, but instead asked the demon hunter "that huge, savage statue."

"I saw it. The people who can carve such a huge statue on the top of the mountain must be a group of great craftsmen." Zelin remembered the statue he noticed when he passed the mountain pass and looked into the distance. A peculiar statue is located on the mountainside and is eye-catching. The demon hunter didn't find the way up, and in order to prevent extra branches from growing, he didn't have the idea of ​​going to the statue to find out.

"It must be a believer in Dagon too." Tolan sipped to the ground, "Skyrim Province, I seem to think that I was back in Cyrodir. There are statues made by devils believers everywhere, Meritia, Dagon. , Azura, who knows it is still hidden elsewhere. My brother found the trace of a follower of Morag Barr in Reach, but he has disappeared. May Standdal bless him."

Seeing Zelin's silence, Tolan continued to speak. The vigilant seems to want someone who can listen. Generally speaking, when a person's rational biological pressure is too great, he will want someone to listen to his words. Demon hunters have a deep understanding of this.

"The annihilation crisis caused by the demon **** Dagon four hundred years ago caused many people to lose their relatives, lovers, friends, and even almost lost the world. The last time we had great Martin and Cyrodir champions, without them, who would know now? What is your world like. Dragonborn has not appeared for more than four hundred years, and there are always people who will come to fight the devil. I was a soldier, and then I realized what is glorious and what is meaningless." Nordmi The wine was held in Tolan's hand. "There are more and more vampires. I really don't know when I will drink this kind of honey in Songard."

"You used to be a soldier, and now you are a vigilant." Zelin turned the book to the page of Melunius Dagon Demon God. "You used to fight another lord for one lord, but now you are upgraded, for a **** Go and fight another god."

"Fight against another **** for the sake of one god? Cassiti wouldn't like your words. If it were my former vigilant brother Islan, he might agree."

"He is dead?"

"No, he left, and went to the Rift Valley." Tolan was somewhat distracted, but suddenly, the voice outside made him **** his ears. The wooden structure of the Vigilante’s Hall is nothing soundproof. Just like an ordinary hotel, you can hear the sound from outside or next door by leaning against the wall, whether it’s talking or groaning, "Your horse seems to be frightened." Up."

"It was given to me by Lord Balgruf. It is a good, gentle horse." Zelin stood up, and the confusion in his heart made him pick up the two swords placed on the table with his back behind him. "Let me see See what's going on."

Chapter 259 Attackers

Death hounds are ugly canine undead creatures, they are partners of vampires. They have bites that are as cold as a tomb, and the person who is bitten seems to have been attacked by cold magic. Their meat is edible, and vampires often make hounds wear expensive collars to show their style, but no one on the market can see the appearance of that collar. Maybe someone will pry off the jewelry on it, but no one Things like vampire pets.

"Night watchman! Take up the weapon, Stendall is with us!"

No one knows the number of the attackers, and no one knows where they came from. In the gray sky, a monster led by several death hounds started an attack on the Hall of the Guardsman. The guards here were caught off guard. Fortunately, the guardian Kasiti was a conscientious warrior. The death hound and the manipulated skeleton failed to break through the defense line of the guard hall.

"Where did they come from?!"

"I don't know! There are too many of them! Use the guardian ring!"

The sirens came from somewhere above the hall cleanly. The wooden houses could not stop the shouts of fighting and metal collisions outside. There was also a huge roar before, which sounded like a thunder. The guards gathered together to resist the attacks of the vampire servants. Arrows flew from the shadows shot at their throats and faces, and the ancient longbow in the hands of skeletons can still kill people.

The demon hunters were still in the hall. Almost all the guards rushed to the high **** in front of the guard hall to respond to the enemy. The terrain there is relatively narrow, and the hall is backed to protect them from being surrounded by skeletons, hounds and vampire servants. In. There are still a few people staying in the hall to prevent vampires from sneaking attacks from other places. They are not warriors, but they look like healers. The pale white light shines from the guards and passes to the robes fighting ahead. Body, or let the undead who are still fighting flee with their heads.

"Is this a servant of a vampire?"

Zelin's silver sword was stained with some dust. He killed a few skeletons that rushed up first, and then retreated. Skeletons should have been awakened from the tomb not long ago, and they still carry the rotten breath that is unique to the tomb. And the servants of the vampires, Zelin didn't know whether they were sane or not, maybe they were no different from the undead being controlled, and Yaxifah had no effect. These servants controlled by necromantic spells have no fighting skills at all, but their fierce attacks have caused considerable losses to the vigilantes in Stendal.

"Yes, don't have to pity them, Stendall's kindness has nothing to do with the devil worshiper, take this!" Tolan the Vigilant threw a roll of parchment, Zelin knew what this style of parchment represents "the ring of guardianship" Of magic, we need helpers."

"Damn, I'm just a messenger."

The demon hunter sighed, took the magic scroll thrown by the vigilant, and pinned it to his waist.

The guard hall is located at the foot of the mountain. This design prevents the hall from being besieged by the enemy. The guards only need to face pressure from one direction, but again, this cuts off the evacuation from other directions when the hall is under siege. Possible. For some reason, most of Standal’s vigilantes did not have shields, or even the most basic small leather shields. Facing the arrows thrown by the vampire servants, they could only use the wooden boards found in the hall to resist, or hide behind the rocks. , And at this time, skeletons and hounds will come up. Led by some creatures who are barely called vampires.

Compared with the vampires Zelin knew, the vampire who led his servants to attack seemed too weak. Compared with the vampire itself, the trickiest thing is the vampire's weird spell. The demon hunter saw several Standal guards who were hit by the spell. The guards who were still fighting seemed to be hollowed out and become He couldn't even raise his battle axe, and was eventually killed easily by the vampire with a long sword.

From the outside, vampires are not much different from ordinary people, except for their pale skin, scarlet eyes and fangs that show up when they grin. The vampire may have visited the nearby ancient Nord ruins beforehand. The attack was obviously premeditated, which had to confuse the demon hunter. The Dragonborn once said that she originally thought that vampires were nothing more than legendary creatures. Like dragons, they have not appeared in Skyrim for a long time, but now vampires have even begun to attack the city actively, and now they are against the headquarters of the Standal Vigilant. Launch an attack.

Just like the dragons that suddenly appeared and attacked everywhere, this made the demon hunters wonder what exactly the vampires in Skyrim planned to do.

"Die here!"

Facing Zelin's vampire with a triumphant smile, he seemed satisfied with the progress of the attack on the Hall of the Vigilant. Nearly half of the guards have lost their combat effectiveness. The number of vampires' servants far exceeds that of the defenders here. "You killed three hounds, seven skeletons, and five of my favorite servants. You will be a good servant. of."

"But I want to be a gravedigger even more." The demon hunter wielded a silver sword, and the vampire slyly hid behind his servant. A red light appeared from its hand, like blood that had been sucked, continuously flowing from the demon hunter. Pouring into its body.

Feeling the emptiness in the body, the blood is being drained, but the demon hunter did not attack the vampire. Instead, he swung his long sword at extremely fast speed and hit two vampire servants, one holding a short sword and shield, and the other using a one-handed axe. , But none of them can stand in front of Zelin for a few seconds. The enemy’s attacks are full of flaws. The demon hunter dodges the sword body and the axe blade lightly. The silver sword seems to be alive and like a deadly poisonous snake. It takes the opportunity to enter in the gap between the vampire servant’s defense and the silver sword point. There was no extra movement on the servant's forehead, and Zelin would not waste any extra energy on the enemy who was bound to be killed. With a dazed look, the servant fell to the ground like a wooden stake being chopped.

The vampire looked at Zelin who was unaffected in surprise, then it covered its chest and staggered back a few steps. The fingers trembled violently, and then the body. The spell naturally ended because of the vampire's tremor. This time, there was a lot of blood on the vampire's skin, but it was not a healthy color. The blood permeated from the vampire's body, its eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and even every pore on his body.

"Your blood... is poisonous..."

"You made a mistake."

Zelin raised his sword and stared at the vampire who was kneeling on the ground.

"Vampires rarely dare to **** the blood of a demon hunter."

Half a bottle of black blood potion was hanging around his waist. The silver sword was swung down, and the vampire without the ability to resist could only look at the blade and kiss his neck, and then his sight fell completely into darkness as he rolled.

"Back to the hall! Night watchman! Defend the hall!"

Although a vampire was lost, the vigilantes still couldn't resist the undead's offensive. They left two corpses and withdrew into the Hall of the Vigilant. Zelin retreated with them. The accumulated sense of crisis told him that there were more dangerous creatures hiding in the snow and wind, and that creature was moving towards the Hall of the Vigilantes. .

Chapter 260 Hunter

"Go to the basement, get the potion, hurry up!"

After all, the Vigilant Hall is the headquarters of the Standal Vigilant in Skyrim. They excavated a basement that is equivalent to the surface building space. It is filled with various alchemy potions, magic scrolls and spare weapons. Food and first aid supplies. A map is hung on the wall, and there are many places on it. There are camps of the Standal guards, and dangerous places are also indicated.

"Don't worry, there is a guardian ring, they can't get in for a while."

Guardian Kasiti is quite confident in the defense of this place. The vigilants rely on the magic scroll to release several shining magic rings outside, which can prevent undead creatures from approaching, but only temporarily. Wait until the magic power contained in the scroll is exhausted. After all, they must face the vampire servants who have also regrouped outside.

Cassiti suffered some skin injuries, but she took care of another vampire. The opponent's offensive has temporarily come to an end. If the vampires have nothing else, then the vigilants rely on stored supplies and stay here for a few days until the weather clears. Ordinary vampires are afraid of sunlight and flames.
