The Journey of the Demon Hunter

The rocks and coniferous forest on both sides of the road faded quickly, and the horse's endurance was good, but it was enough to take two people and a carriage to fly for an hour, which was enough to make it pant. Tolan had to slow down, if the horse was run to death, then they could only rely on two legs to drag their tired body after the war.

"I don't know." Tolan shook his head, and the two vigilantes who were still alive were silent. "Kasiti is dead...she finally gave me the scroll and this box. The magic artifact must not fall into it. Four of us could have escaped from the vampire’s hands... The guardian is dead, and the headquarters is over." His voice was trembling. A clean cloth."

"No, keep it, I'll be fine in a while."

"I heard that Eslan is in the abandoned castle of Rift Valley City, preparing to rebuild the Dawn Guard to fight against vampires. His warning has always been correct. The power of vampires is too strong, and I am going to find him."

"Aren't you going to leave Skyrim?"

Zelin leaned on the box. He knew that there was an ebony blade inside, but now he didn't want to think about it. The silver sword needs to be repaired, and there are some gaps in it. Fortunately, in this world, most monsters do not need to be solved with a silver sword.

"No, I know what I am doing. If you understand the annihilation crisis of the year and the price humanity paid, you will also be willing to fight against the believers of the devil."

Zelin didn’t know what the so-called annihilation crisis was, but it was conceivable that, just like a year ago, all northerners would have only two reactions after they heard about the Sintra massacre. It was to run further north, hoping that he would never see the Nilfgard. The other is to take up arms and go south to fight Nilfgard.

The vigilant is like the second kind, although the annihilation crisis was not a year ago, but four hundred years ago.

"I want to go to Winter Fort first, then follow the road all the way south, passing through the eastern border of Windhelm City, and finally into the Rift Valley. Will you go with me?"

Zelin was silent for a while, and finally shook his head, "No, let's separate at Winterhold. Give the carriage to you, I don't need it anymore."

The next day, when the soldiers at the Red Road Pass mustered up the courage and cautiously went to the Vigilant Hall to investigate the situation, they were quickly stunned by the sight in front of them. There are corpses everywhere on the ground, as well as skeletons, death hounds that only exist in legends, and vampires who are pale, with fangs and clothes that do not belong to this era.

The vampire's army attacked the Hall of the Vigilant, destroyed it and massacred all the Vigilantes, and the news spread like the wind. Vampires, after countless years of silence, they would return.

The news is like wings, and it is like the light across the night. Snow Man, Baidi, Yarbian, Havengar, Eastland, Reach. From the Winter Fort in the north to Frix in the south. It spread to Victoria, who was looking forward to the wedding in Solitary City, to Lydia, who was wiping the sword in Snowman City, and it was spoken among the brigade members of the Markus Silver and Blood Hotel, and it echoed in the Windhelm City Beo. Wufu's ears and the heart of the dragonborn who came to the Rift Valley City tavern in search of Ispen.

"Thank you for your donation. Please accept Mara's talisman. You are always welcome to visit Mara's temple."

The Dragonborn looked at the Mara talisman in his hand, shook his head, and walked out of the hotel after drinking a glass of Nord's honey. But before she took a few steps, she was stopped by a voice.

"Girl, do you want to know a way to make money quickly?"

The girl glanced at the man standing outside the market, "I want to know where the Rat Road is?"

Chapter 262 Winter Fortress

The Winter Fortress is located in the extreme north of the east of the sky. It has the most severe cold weather. There are very few creatures that can survive in this extreme weather. Compared with the snowman, it is difficult to imagine the winter castle and the snowman in the snow. Adjacent status. The interior is covered with snow all year round, and both mountains and coasts are covered with a layer of white snow or thick ice. If it is the morning star and the sunny weather can be seen, then the residents of Winter Fort almost live in the severe cold all day long.

But as one of the nine territories of Skyrim, Winterhold's current scale is far from this title. When Zelin came to the Winter Fortress, he even thought whether he had come to the fishing village outside the Winter Fortress, because on the cliff above the Winter Fortress, there was a magnificent castle, and the Xueman Longxiao Palace was similar. Than all looks dwarfed.

"That's not the lord's castle, this is. Traveller, remember, the lord of Winterhold is Collier." The one who talked to Zellin was a dark elf who called himself Marul Cypress, he Point to a double-storey wooden house on the side of the road. That wooden house doesn't look any better than the grocery store of Varelles in Brooks Town. "My task is to serve the lord, not to chat with travelers. Don't ask such stupid questions in the future."

Dunmore, serving the lord, picked up a glass of Alto from the hotel’s freezing furnace, drank it, and drove away. The female boss Haran sipped at the back of the dark elf.

"Holy Spirit, if it weren't for the lord who thought he could rely on this dark elf to get in touch with the wizards of the academy, I really want to throw that Dunmore out." Harlan held his forehead and sighed, then looked at the place he had just arrived here. "Do you need something to eat or drink? We can’t provide too much like Solitary City or Snowman City, but we will try our best to make you satisfied."

"Why is it so empty here?"

After the demon hunter looked around, he couldn't help but raise this question.

"Are you talking about this inn? Or Winter Fort?" After Harlan asked, he laughed at himself, "Well, actually both are the same. Thanks to the academy, most people left with their possessions. Those who are still willing to stay are either stubborn stones or lunatics."

"That college... doesn't sound like you don't like it?" The Nords don't like magic, and Zelin understands this. But in Winterhold, the small number of residents seemed to hate the feeling of the college because of something. The demon hunter wanted to learn about enchanting in the college, but before that he had to understand the college "what did they do?"

"I thought everyone knew about this." Haran called Dagul, the hotel employee who was sweeping the floor, and asked him to help bring Zelin's bag of luggage to the guest room.

"This is not necessary." Zelin stopped Otis, and the wrapped ebony blade was placed in the footsteps. "This is my spare weapon, I just hold it." Although the whispering lady has been silent for the past two days , But the demon hunter still didn't worry about handing over the weapon to other people. The Nords will carry many weapons, such as daggers, long swords, and short bows. They will put them in their arms when they sleep. Zelin's words did not cause any objection.

"The size of the original Winter Fortress was no less than Solitary City, and there was also a port the same as Morning Star. Otherwise, the Magic Academy would not have chosen the address in Winter Fort." Harlan shrugged. "As a result, I don't know what the mages did. A big flood swallowed most of the city of the original Winter Fort. As you can see, there is now an academy and a few houses that can still live in Winter Fort."

"It sounds like the college is dangerous."

"Yes, it explodes often, like..." The lady boss hadn't figured out how to describe it, and then the sound of glass bottles exploding in a room on the side of the Ice Furnace Inn.

"Neraka!" Harlan shouted to a man dressed as a mage who walked out of the room. "Your bottles and jars have exploded again. Hurry up and pack your things. Don't let the hotel be everywhere. Some strange smell."

"I'm sorry, I promise, this is just a small accident." Mage Neilaka kept rubbing his hands, wondering whether he was nervous or feeling cold. Through the hood, Zelin could tell that he was a The high elves from Summerset Island "please believe that this little accident will not cause any substantial harm."

Harlan wanted to continue to say something, but finally she sighed helplessly, "Nerak, that's why people hate the Academy." She turned to the Demon Hunter, "Then, you must come to Winterhold for the Academy. Right? Did you see it? This is the mage of the academy."

"Why do you say that?" Zelin put the weapon on the table."

"What else can you come to Winterhold for besides coming for the academy? People are not to learn magic, but to seek enchantment..."

"Hi, Mage." At this time, a guard of Winterhold walked into the hotel. "Didn't you enchant my knife? Why can't you even cut the butter?"

"That's because your butter may be harder than rocks."

Nelaka said blankly, and walked back to his guest room. It could be seen that the few guests in the hotel were sitting on a table far away from that guest room. The demon hunter sighed, and it seemed that no matter it was that world, the research experiments of magic users were so dangerous, accompanied by various explosions.

"How is everything in the academy lately?" Zelin asked. He didn't want to encounter another explosion when he first came to Winterhold. The explosion caused by the failure of the experiment was always so dangerous.

"Fortunately, apart from not knowing what they have unearthed in Sattar recently, there has been no other movement."

"Those mages should understand that there are the dead bodies of ancient people lying in Sattar. It is a tomb, not their laboratory." The guard who walked in ordered a glass of wine and sat by the fire and complained, "This is how the Winter Fortress became. Because of the mages and their magic, they hid in the tower to do unobtrusive experiments, and ignored the impact on the outside."

Winter Fort is indeed like an ordinary village. Regarding its scale and population, Zelin can only describe it as a village. There are fewer residents, fewer guards, and fewer troubles. In Xueman, it is difficult to see the guards sitting idly in the hotel. They keep patrolling or doing other things, but in Winterhold, the demon hunters only saw three guards along the way.

"The college shouldn't explode soon, right?"

"Who knows..."

Before the guard had finished speaking, there was a violent explosion outside. It came from a high place, roaring like thunder. Then, the shouts of residents outside came into the hotel.

"Hurry up! The college exploded!"

PS: I went to my sister’s wedding today, so today there is only one update...I will find a chance to make it up

Chapter 263 College Crisis

"What is that!"

"It must be done by the mages, hurry up and hide!"

The violent explosion sound can be heard by almost everyone in the originally not too big Winter Fortress. Even the people who haven't figured out what happened, after seeing the weird creatures who didn't know where they were pouring into the winter fort, they hid at home one after another. Those creatures are by no means ordinary creatures that people understand. They are suspended in the air like a snake, and the whole body emits a blue light, looming in the air.

But not everyone has time to hide out of the sight of magical creatures.

"Come here! Come on!"

The flame in his hand blocked a magical creature, and Zelin's free hand quickly pulled a Nord to the steps of the Frozen Furnace Inn "Hide in the inn, it is safe inside."

"But my home..."

"If you die here, there will be nothing left."

These creatures are in the air like fish in the water, fast and flexible. The Igni's seal in the hands of the demon hunter hadn't even touched them. These creatures twisted their bodies and disappeared in mid-air. Then they emerged from other places, like crabs hiding in the cracks of the stone. Traces can be found, and only when they attack can they be captured with the naked eye.

More than a dozen guards are protecting the lord's long house, inn and several houses, and try to keep these magical creatures from rushing into the only part of the city of Winterhold. Relying on the lord’s magic advisor, the guards can still hold on to this area, although Zelin prefers magical creatures just wandering around, randomly attacking the creatures in front of them, otherwise the guards may not be able to stop so many creatures. Attack. These transparent creatures seem to be wearing iron armor. The swords and arrows of the guards can hardly cause effective damage to them, and their number is constantly increasing.
