The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 873 Counterattack

When Zelin returned to the room at the Blink Snow Squirrel Hotel in the evening, Valerica was already sitting at the wooden table in the room with a candle on it. Hearing the sound of pushing the door, she glanced back slightly, then turned her attention to the book in her hand.

"I heard what you did. The house of a baron in Solitary City was burned down." She turned a page gently. "People say that it was a high elf mage from the baron's house who brought in during the experiment. It was only the demon in annihilation that suffered this bad luck."

Having said this, Valerica squinted at the demon hunter. It was obvious that she wanted to know what exactly Zelin found in Erikul's house that caused a conflict with a high elf mage. In the customs of Skyrim, as long as nothing is done to endanger the interests of the owner of the house, the owner should welcome guests who walk into their room during the day. Simply walking into the room will not lead to serious conflicts.

Zelin must have found something worthy of the high elf wizard who would burn the house and kill him to keep it secret.

"Two documents." Zelin took out the things he had obtained in the Arekul safe and the high elf mage. Both documents have been opened. The demon hunter has seen the contents, and he took the documents and letters. Put it on Valerica’s desk together. "I can be sure that the cultists have nothing to do with the Somo Embassy."

Valerica picked up the parchment and looked at the message on the parchment. She couldn't help but frowned slightly. This is a letter from Ambassador Alanwen to Erikul, asking him to use his influence in the court to investigate the cultists who have appeared on the mainland and find out who is behind the cultists. Somo suspects that someone is trying to use the influence of the dragonborn to control the situation in Skyrim, which will make them lose control of the battle in Skyrim.

Obviously, Somo has nothing to do with the cultists, and they are also investigating this group of newly emerging unstable factors.

Looking at the frowning Demon Hunter, Valerica narrowed her eyes slightly, "I guess what you got is not good news."

"There is another letter, the order that the high elf mage got." Zelin raised his head slightly and motioned to Valerica to read another letter. Valerica put down the parchment scroll in her hand and picked up the letter paper with some blood stains on the corners. After unfolding the letter paper and checking it, she showed a clear expression.

"The Somo Embassy is summoning Talos hunters and high elf mages to search for men related to the dragonborn as quickly as possible." Valerica pinched the corner of the portrait in the letter, raised it in front of her, and looked at it. Look at the portrait and look at the demon hunter who is sitting next to the bed. "Five points of similarity. But the two swords on your back are too conspicuous. Who would carry two long swords in battle."

"I suspect that Somo is colluding with someone, trying to take action against the Dragonborn." Zelin stretched out his index finger to point down. "Although they are not cultists, they are more dangerous than cultists."

"And if you want to continue your activities in Skyrim, you have to resolve this matter." Valerica said solemnly. "They are searching for you. My friends in Skyrim told me that they can completely call anyone Talos. The believers are arrested on charges. What do you plan to do? I think the Empire will not take the initiative to help Somo, but they will not stop it either."

If the empire will help Somo, then these portraits will not only be distributed to Talos hunters and high elf mages, but posted in any town or village controlled by the empire, offering a reward for Zelin.

"I will think of a way." Not only Zelin, whether it is Gnaiya or other friends he knows, if they intend to continue to operate in Skyrim, Somo has become a difficult problem to ignore, especially Francesca. . Zelin helped her bridge the trade agreement with Xueman, and Somo should be able to find out. Based on what Somo did in Skyrim, they would definitely blatantly sabotage it. As for the crime, the crime is very simple. Believing in Talos' crime allows them to arrest people at will.

"What's the news from the East Empire Company?"

Although a hidden enemy suddenly appeared, Zelin still remembered looking for cultists.

"I can be sure that in recent months, no masked cultists have appeared at the dock in Solitary City. The Eastern Empire Company has a complete record. Every ship on it has a registration and passengers who have landed from the dock. All have records."

Since the Morningstar Pier is controlled by the Stormcloak, in order to prevent the soldiers in the Stormcloak from coming to the docks of Solitary City as passengers, they attacked Solitary City while the rebels of Reach marched northward to attack the Hafingal Land. Therefore, the records on the dock should be credible. Not to mention the strange costumes and dangerous spell abilities of the cultists. When they go ashore, the soldiers of the Imperial Army on the dock will look at them.

"That is to say, the cultists did not enter the sky from Hafingal." Zelin crossed his hands, supported his elbows on his knees, supported his chin, and fell into deep thought. He is now waiting for news from Jacqueline. If there is no news or clues in Windhelm, then he must reconsider the method of investigating the cultists.

"What are you going to do next?" Valerica asked. "Leave Hafingal? It is dangerous for you to stay in Solitary City. A high elf mage died. The Somo Embassy will soon send soldiers and battle mage to Dugu Investigate the city and they will find you."

"No, you don't need to trouble them to search me." Zelin shook his head. "I will find a chance to visit them."

The Somo Embassy is also investigating cultists. Maybe there will be some valuable investigation results in the embassy. Of course, if this group of Somo has come to the door, it is not only because of themselves, but also Gnaiya, and Francesca who is preparing to expand activities in Skyrim, and many friends that Zelin knew in Skyrim. They will all be threatened by Somo.

"Courageous courage...well, I think I have asked more. Hakon's power is far greater than the Somo stationed in the sky. If you dare to fight against Hakon, you will certainly not be afraid of these Somo elves. But you have to know. , To deal with Somo, you don’t have an Oriel bow to restrain them.” Valerica reminded, “and the embassy is protected by a guard. Since the embassy was attacked last time, they have strengthened the guard.”

"But I am not alone." Zelin raised his eyebrows and stared at the vampire lady in front of him.

While Valerica looked at the demon hunter, the corner of her mouth slowly conjured a clear arc, "No problem, let's go, if you were caught by Somo and chopped your head, wouldn't my baby girl resent me for this? Mother sits on the sidelines?"

ps: Regarding this Sinicization, although Steam's reset version of the Elder Scrolls has a traditional Chinese version, I still try to focus on Jiajia's Sinicization as much as possible. However, in terms of the main name, the two should not have too serious conflicts.

Chapter 874 The Lady with a Sword

The next morning, Zelin heard a surprising news.

He thought he killed the high elf mage Melaran who was sent by the Somo Embassy to protect Erikul's life. It was Melaran who was staying in the court with Erikul, but in fact, he killed him. The one who died was a mage messenger sent by the Somo Embassy to deliver letters to Erikul.

This was the news that Valerica got in contact with Sibelly Stand that night after the demon hunter fell asleep. Somo's messenger contacted one of the two barons in the court without anyone knowing about it in the Blue Palace. Although it did not cause any superficial troubles, according to Shibiri, the court chief of Foco Huohu has sent people to investigate Erikul’s actions and asked Erikul to explain what he had with the Somo Embassy. Come and go.

It seems that the accident caused some trouble to Ambassador Alan Wen.

But this little thing doesn't matter. Regarding the blonde Queen Alicia, although she does not want to say that, she is just a queen now, and her ability to handle government affairs is far inferior to her dead husband. Nowadays, the affairs of Hafingal are basically handled by Foco. Military decision-making power is firmly controlled in the hands of General Turius. It can be said that this matter will only upset Ambassador Alan Wen, but will not cause any diplomatic disputes.

It is even more impossible for Somo to give up their plan.

In the hall where Zelin was sitting in the winking snow squirrel, while he was eating breakfast while listening to Lisette playing the Dragonborn, a strong guard holding a sword and shield stood in front of him.

The demon hunter slowly raised his eyes and looked at the iron-clad female warrior standing in front of him. The first thing that catches the eye is the slightly curly blond hair like Gnaiya, followed by an angular face, but both the look and the muscles on the exposed arms indicate that this is a powerful female warrior, if only People who simply pay attention to her face are likely to suffer. She didn't seem to be looking for Zelin for something bad, but she was looking for someone who could help her solve a problem that needed to be solved. The worries revealed between her eyebrows made Ze Lin couldn't help but wonder what it was that made such a soldier feel anxious.

"Sorry, are you...?"

"You are Zelin, are you?" The soldier saluted him. "I am the sword guard Judith, the temporary guard of Baron Bryling."

"Well... I am glad to meet you, and I hope you can say hello to Baron Brylin for me." Zelin nodded to the sword guard, "I guess, you came to me for something?"

"Yes, a very important thing."

The sword guard itself is the entourage and guard of the local baron, just as Gnaiya became the Baron Snowman, and Balgruuf made Lydia her sword guard. Judith, known as the Lady with a Sword, is also a baron guard. Judging by the standards of honor of the Nords, she does not have a baron who is willing to follow. In normal times, she will not get a sword in some cases. Provide protection when the baron followed by the guard is out.

"His Excellency Baron Bryling has not left the Somo Embassy for many days. These Somos did not allow me to enter the embassy with the Lord Baron, nor did they allow me to meet the Lord Baron. I went to the Somo Embassy to ask about it yesterday. The Guard Somo told me that Baron Blylin might have been arrested for sympathizing with Talos heresy for her past words and deeds. I need your help, Your Excellency Zelin."

As soon as Judith sat down, Zelin had not had time to ask, she said almost everything in a brain. Baroness Brelin accepted the invitation some time ago and went to the Somo Embassy. Zelin had heard about this. Later, after the banquet, Somo asked Ambassador Alanwen to discuss the Gwent card of Skyrim with Baroness Brelin and asked the Baroness to stay in the embassy.

As a result, it now appears that the situation is not as simple as Zelin expected.

"Sympathize with Talos heresy?" Zelin stretched out his hand to stop Judith from continuing. There were more and more people in the hall. It is not wise to talk about Somo here at all. "Go to my room and talk. Also, how did you find me?"

"Bryling used to have a good relationship with the Palace Mage Sdent. I asked her for help, and she asked me to ask for your help."

In the guest room on the second floor, the sword-wielding lady Judith told the demon hunter what she knew now. Although she was just a temporary **** for Baron Blylin when he left Solitary Speaking of sympathy for the storm cloak, so you must stay at the Somo Embassy for a while.

"Baron Brylin sometimes said that she was unwilling to publicly condemn the storm cloak, and fighting for faith is an act worthy of admiration." Judith can be the honor guard in the Blue Palace for no reason, she is very responsible. "I am very worried about the safety of Baron Brylin. Many of the people who were arrested by Somo and entered the embassy have not been able to return."

"Could they still kill a baron in the dungeon for just one sentence?" Zelin raised his eyebrows.

"Platinum Agreement." When referring to this peace agreement, Judith’s expression was like eating a fly. Chief Foco could not protest and demand the embassy, ​​Baron Erikul...has been trying to play down this matter."

"Relax, Judith, I have a good friendship with Baron Brylin, and I will help you." Zelin made a gesture, indicating that the baron guard in front of him was relieved. "I'm about to find a chance to visit the Somo Embassy. "

"I will wait at the Villa Aoyao, please allow me to travel with you." Judith nodded. Before leaving, she did not forget to tell Zelin to go to the embassy as soon as possible. She was very worried about the safety of Baron Brylin. .

And Judith also asked Zelin for help in another matter. The Maf Guyimd of Ketra Farm outside Solitary City was taken away by the Talos hunter of Somo. His wife has never been able to understand her husband’s situation. , So after learning about Judith, she asked Judith for help to find out if her husband was still alive and whether he could be rescued.

Zelin naturally agreed to this matter.

In the past, Gnaiya used the invitation letter that the blade would find for her, and walked directly into the embassy from the front entrance in a gorgeous banquet dress. It is natural that Zelin cannot repeat the same tricks. The last time he met this ambassador Alanwen at the peace meeting, she was not a fool, she was a cunning high elf, and would not be successfully invaded twice by the same method. .

Of course, Zelin would not be so stupid to think that the only one who can enter the embassy is the main entrance.

Chapter 875: Sunset on the West Mountain

"Have you heard, there are rumors that vampires have appeared in Mosal City, and the cemetery outside the city has suffered."

In the west of the sunset, white seagulls crossed the pier of Dugu City, and the pier was covered with a layer of light red afterglow. Two workers in linen shirts are sitting on the wooden barrels across the long bridge of the pier with the exhaustion of a tiring day, drinking the cold water in the mugs.

"Dare the vampires come out? The Dawn Guard kills so many vampires. It is in the castle north of Solitary City." The red guard man shook his head. "I don't know if there are any vampires in Falling Hammer, but Skyrim is too dangerous. Waiting for this month to finish. , I will quit my job and find a boat to go home. I can definitely find a better and safer job in Falling Hammer. Workers are needed there, because we just drove the dregs of our ancestor Shenzhou out of Falling Hammer..."
