Whether it was the proprietress of the Sleeping Giant Inn or the chief mage of Dragon's Landing Castle, they all pointed to Olaf One-Eyed and Furminex, as well as the Dead Men's Respite where they were buried.

"Sir, like all Nord Tombs, if you want to open the final tomb door of the Death's Habitat, you need a special 'Ruby Dragon Claw'." Farenja Secret Fire reminded Wu Chen: "It is also used by

Hidden in the abode of the dead.”

"Okay, Master." Wu Chen was ready to leave immediately.

Farenjia Secret Fire took another sky map with all the ancient dragon tombs marked and handed it to Wu Chen: "Sir, be sure to avoid the dragon tombs."

"Understood, Master." Wu Chen understood.

Judging from the information brought back by Skyrim travelers and hunters, the ancient dragons resurrected by the World Devourer have been hovering around the cemetery. They also seem to use their respective dragon tombs as lairs to divide their territories. Therefore, as long as you avoid the ancient dragon tombs marked on the dragon stone

, naturally no dragon would regard the Storm Outlook, which is far away from the dragon's nest, as a hostile "nest invader". In addition to the keel effect of the Storm Outlook, the dragon as a "nest defender" will not easily fly out of the territory.

, to challenge the companions passing by.

Coupled with the obstruction and shelter from the unpredictable Annihilation Storm and Ash Wind along the way, this journey is also made even safer.

Without further ado, Wu Chen set off immediately. From the Whiterun Stables to the northwest, he passed through the Bleakwind Basin, Greenspring Hollow, and Talking Stone Camp, and then went straight north.

, arrived at the abode of the dead.

There are mostly frozen tundras along the way, as well as the low-lying Yinfeng Basin, which is not in line with the dragon's habit of building nests on the mountain tops. There are also giant tribes that the dragon does not dare to easily provoke, which makes this journey uneventful.

risk.

The frozen tundra (Tundra Plain), also known as the Snowrun Tundra (Whiterun Tundra), occupies most of the Snowrun Territory in Skyrim Province, as well as a small part of Falkreath Territory, Shiar Border Territory and Whiteland Territory. This

It is a vast and flat tundra with many strange ancient tombs and huge ruins. Centered on the lonely peak where Xueman City is located, the western section is the tundra plateau, the middle section is the gray wasteland hills (or western plains), and the eastern section is

It is the White River Valley, and the northwest section bounded by the Karls River and the Hjaalmarch River is the Hjaalmarch Hills. The White River, which nourishes the frozen tundra, passes through the Throat of the World and circumvents the Shire Cape, leading to the Frost in the East.

Frostwater Tundra.

Three days later, the Storm Outlook slowly landed next to the Habitat of the Dead surrounded by mountains.

The semicircular outline of the cairn is the consistent style of the ancient Nords. Hidden in the valley of the mountains, it can be isolated from the world. The ubiquitous corpses in the tomb also deter those with bad intentions. It can also prevent the corpse from decaying and

Soul-polluted magic ice. As long as no accident occurs, no one will disturb the late king's eternal sleep.

However, when Wu Chen approached the ancient tomb with the Spirit Dragon Knight Ashtaret and the Judgment Angel Shulia, there was an obvious pit on the black iron tomb door that was obviously the mark left by someone violently opening it.

"Someone arrived before us, just before the moon rose." Ashtaret, the dragon knight, was born in the Dwemer deep elf and has a strong sense of forging metals.

"Be careful." It was similar to the exploration into the ancient tomb, Wu Chen still had fresh memories. The structure of the Nord tomb was also mostly similar. After entering the black iron tomb door, there was mostly a tomb passage diagonally underground. The end of the tomb passage was used for sacrifices.

The hall has an altar in the center, and cascading grotto tomb chambers are dug along the stone walls around the hall. The mummies of warriors guarding the ancient tombs are sleeping in rows. If they feel the intrusion of strangers, they will look like ghosts.

The form awakens and attacks indiscriminate intruders.

Of course, some mummies in grotto tombs have not transformed into ghouls over the long years. Even in the same tomb, there are two completely different situations: mummies that sleep forever and ghouls that cannot rest in peace. As for the formation of ghouls,

Cursed, enslaved, or cast a spell, there are different opinions among the academic circles in the empire, but there is no final conclusion.

However, what is certain is that the older the tomb, the more likely it is for wights to be born. Therefore, most Nords believe that ancient Nord warriors were cursed by dragons after their death and became wights. This is likely to be the first time wights were born.

The origin of.

Walking into the sacrificial hall, the ruby ​​dragon claw that should have been displayed in the center of the altar and used to open the main tomb door was missing.

The ancient corpses scattered around proved the brutality of the battle. The intruder who took away the ruby ​​dragon claw and touched the mechanism undoubtedly alarmed the ghoul.

"Master, we may be late." Spirit Dragon Knight Ashtaret had a bad feeling.

"We'll talk about it when we go down to the main tomb." Wu Chen didn't intend to give up.

"As commanded."

Following the fallen ancient corpses along the way, everyone easily arrived at the door of the main tomb.

I saw that the tomb was open, and the missing ruby ​​dragon claw was thrown aside casually. The dark bottom of the cave revealed the light of a torch from the left side.

Turning a corner and looking up at the end of the stairs, it was the light emitted by the chandelier in the tomb that had been lit.

"Master, be careful." Judgment Angel Shulia walked up to Wu Chen. With the condensed holy light, the wings invisible under the human appearance quickly solidified into entities.

"Okay." Ashtaret, the spirit dragon knight who was lagging behind, quietly opened the magic ring and put on the Divine Light Titan armor. He also summoned a brass female puppet warrior from the void, holding a sword and shield to protect Wu Chen.

"Ashtaret?" Wu Chen was very interested in the "Void Pocket" of the Spirit Dragon Knight: "How many puppet warriors can your Void Pocket hold?"

"So far, there are only brass female warriors, my master." The Spirit Dragon Knight regarded his man with all his heart and soul, without any reservation.

"So what's restricting you?" There is only one high-level puppet warrior and a group of low-level puppet beasts, which obviously does not meet Wu Chen's expectations.

"Marks." Ashtaret made an analogy: "It's as if they are all called 'puppet'. That means you can't call the 'puppet' you want."

"I understand." Wu Chen thought of a more understandable analogy: spell slots. No matter how many spells are carried, only the ones memorized in the spell slots can be used.

"Try to see if you can expand your 'puppet mark' when you have time." Wu Chen had some ideas.

"Okay, Master." Ashtaret was naturally very happy.

With that said, everyone stepped onto the last step of the stairs.

In the wide main tomb, the mummies of eight ancient warriors are seated on both sides. At the bottom of the tomb, there are four followers sitting in rows under the high platform displaying the coffin of King Olaf the One-Eyed, plus the ones sleeping in the king's coffin.

One-eyed Olaf, no more, no less, exactly 13 people.

"Master, the dragon language wall." Judgment Angel Shulia reminded Wu Chen in a low voice. The dragon language engraved on the stone wall behind the high platform is the powerful dragon roar that One-Eyed Olaf obtained from the dragon Furymenex. As far as the eye can see

, there seems to be a black figure standing in front of the dragon's language wall, motionless, like a sculpture.

"Strange, it seems to be the soul breath that I am familiar with." Judgment Angel Shulia's feeling must be correct.

Before Wu Chen could ask first, the black shadow on the Dragon Wall had already spoken: "Long time no see, Lord."

"Huh?" Wu Chen was also stunned. Since it was a completely unfamiliar voice, why did he feel familiar: "You are..."

The black shadow slowly walked into the light. It turned out to be a scarred body with one arm cut off... a corpse?

Apparently it was the corpse in front of him who broke into the Habitat of the Dead before Wu Chen and others. When he took away the ruby ​​dragon claw on the altar, he triggered the mechanism and alerted the ancient guards in the Habitat of the Dead. After a fierce battle, he was covered with wounds.

, and even had an arm cut off in the battle. However, being able to break into the main tomb chamber and kill all the enemies along the way is definitely a powerful existence of the ghoul overlord level.

Speaking of wight overlords…
