28: This is my idol
Before Mi Shan and his party arrived, Xueman City had already entered the state of war because of the news that the Holy Land Town was almost destroyed by the giant dragon that came out of nowhere.
The urns and battlements, which are much more complicated and spectacular than in the game, are several times more soldiers patrolling back and forth with bows and arrows on their backs and downs... Most times more than usual, Delphin said. As the owner of Qianximu Town Hotel, Delphin would go to Xuemancheng every once in a while to buy or sell some things.
Although Mi Shan and his party had been wasting a little time in the first tomb on the main line, Xuemancheng knew the news so quickly and even the response measures were done, it was still a bit weird.
But Mishan is not very strange, because it is like this in the game.
After completing the battle of the Holy Land Town at the novice level, even if you use the console to teleport to Dugu City, located in the northwest corner of Skyrim Province, you can see the residents in Dugu City discussing the destruction of the Holy Land Town by the giant dragon, as if the destruction of the Holy Land Town by the giant dragon, spread throughout Skyrim Province overnight... in a minute.
This kind of setting that is almost a game bug is also reflected in reality.
Because it was in a state of war, Mi Shan and his group encountered some troubles when entering the city. Even if the soldiers who were hit by an arrow in their knees were dereliction of duty, they would not be able to let strangers enter the city at this time.
It's completely different from being able to enter the city by just giving a little reason in the game.
If Delphin hadn't been a familiar face, with her guarantee, Mishan and Zoe would probably have to spend the night outside the city...
It's so troublesome to even enter the city. If you want to go directly to Longxiao Palace and hand over the dragon stone to Balguff, it's impossible to walk all the way like in the game, and just say something to the dark elf girl who is the personal bodyguard.
In fact, let alone looking for Lord Balguff, the Longxiao Palace, which is the inner city of Xueman City, has been blocked, and even Delphin's familiar face cannot enter.
But it’s not that I can’t get in at all. It’s just that compared to usual, I need to request first and then wait for the summons... I feel like I’m registering first and queuing up.
After looking at the Dragon Xiao Palace, which is about the same size as in the game, Mishan thought about it and said to Zoe, who was paying homage to the statue of the Holy Spirit Talos, "It's dark anyway, let's come back tomorrow."
As a Nord barbarian, it is normal for Zoe to visit Talos.
"Ohhh" Zoe certainly wouldn't say no about Mi Shan's arrangement. The dragon girl who took her attention from the statue of her predecessor followed Mi Shan to the door of the "Mare Banner", the most famous hotel in Xueman City.
Compared with the only one hotel in the snowman city in the game, there are certainly more than one hotel in the real-life version of the snowman city that is dozens of times larger than in the game. However, the "Mare Banner" located next to the market is still the most famous hotel. Even the boss Delphin, who was once an enemy, recommends to live here.
"It's a pity that you haven't become the Wuwei here yet, otherwise you can spend the night in your house." Mishan said to Zoe on the way to the Mare Banner Hotel under the moonlight.
"My house? Do I have a house here?" Zoe said in surprise.
"Yes, but it will only be available later, and basically every city in Skyrim Province will have your mansion. Even if there is no ready-made one, the lord will set a special place for you to build your own house." Mi Shan said the settings added in the Fire DLC.
"Because I'm a dragonborn?" Zoe asked.
"Not only because you are a dragon descendant, but also because you help the lords solve the problem... The latter reason may be more important." Mishan said.
The hidden meaning in Mishan's words is that those lords are all lords who do not show off their rabbits and eagles. No matter how famous your dragon descendants are, even if they save the world, they will only be passers-by A, B, C, and D.
Unfortunately, his mind was full of driving. Zoe, who had no feelings for other things, did not understand what Mishan said very much. He just understood in a daze that if he helped the lord here, he would own a house.
However, in fact, Zoe did not have a real feeling about owning real estate, or becoming a Wuwei or something.
If you have the energy to think about this, it is better to think about how to better absorb the dragon spirit of your master. Being a qualified dragon descendant is true.
The middle-level square where the altar of Talos is located and the market in the lower urban area where the Mare Banner Hotel is located is not far away, and it can be said that it is close to you.
Less than ten minutes along the downward stairs, you will arrive at the market area at the intersection of the Lower City and the Middle City... Xuemancheng is a city built on a hill.
Because it was already night, although there were still some shops in the market, it was not as lively as Mishan when she first arrived in the daytime. It was also possible that the news of the dragon appeared that Xuemancheng had launched a curfew system for no egg use...
However, for the Nord Barbarians, no matter how curfew the system is, it cannot prevent finding a place to drink or fight.
The Mare Banner Hotel is the most common place for barbarians who live in the snow-man city who are idle and energetic at night.
As soon as Mishan and Zoe walked to the door of the Mare Banner Hotel, they heard a lively "clang" sound from the tavern, as well as cheers or boos.
As if he noticed something, Mishan and Zoe looked at each other, and at the same time retreated to the side, and as soon as he made a move, he heard a "bang". The gate of the Mare Banner Hotel was blasted open from inside, and a figure flew out and rolled through the area where Mishan and Zoe made a move to the center of the market.
Faced with this situation, the soldiers of Xueman City patrolling with torches did not show any nervousness. Only one soldier who was close to him came over and kicked the "loser" who had his boots. After confirming that the other party was not in danger of his life, he continued his patrol work.
For the Nords, it is the most normal thing to fight after drinking too much, otherwise why would they always be called barbarians by the residents of other areas?
Fightings that would be arrested by guards in other places are normal social interactions in most areas of Skyrim Province. The guards would never disturb both parties in the fight without any trouble.
The guard didn't think there was anything wrong, but Mi Shan came to the side of the "loser of the fight" with some confusion, and kicked the other party with his boots like the guard and asked:
"Isn't this Uncle Sam? Who's beaten you out?"
"Master, do you know him?" Zoe also came over and asked, "Well, he is just a Nord drunkard who is so ordinary that he can't be more ordinary, and he is also a person who loses in a fight and is attractive to Nord women with a negative number.
"I know..." Actually, Mishan didn't know him, but the problem was that the guy who flew out had a red name "Sam Keiwen" in Mishan's vision. It was natural for Mishan to know what this name meant.
Seeing Zoe staring at the drunkard lying on the ground with wine still ripping in his mouth because of his words, Mishan recalled the mission about this drunkard in the game and said to Zoe in a very serious tone:
"And you must stay away from this guy in the future. This guy is a bad guy."
"Ohhh" Zoe immediately stepped back a few steps when he heard Mi Shan say this, and asked Mi Shan while retreating: "Why?"
"Sangkeen, it should be called this name. The demon god symbolizes pleasure and debauchery in Annihilation. In short, he is a guy that is not suitable for children." Mi Shan said.
According to the game background setting, the attribute of the debauchery of Blood is the demon who is all for sex and everything for pleasure. It is a strange demon who is not very dangerous but always does something particularly delicate.
"So it's this demon..." Zoe said in a strange tone.
"…?" Mi Shan, who heard Zoe's tone and felt Zoe's mood change, was stunned for a moment.
Then Zoe replied seriously: "It's my idol!"
“…”
