The time is approaching dusk, and residents of the ancient city of Mosar working outside the city are entering the city one after another. Although the large swamp outside the city is not considered safe during the day, it becomes more dangerous after nightfall and can leave the swamp and attack living creatures.
Ghosts and ghouls, based on experience, it is very likely that another ancient Nord ruins were washed out of the entrance by the tide.
However, because the undead could not approach the city, the old lady who served as the lord refused to send out men or issue a reward to solve the problem. The reason was because the aftermath of the "Heruga Incident" not long ago had not subsided.
The lord's authority has not yet been fully restored.
If the city guard had a better vision at this time and looked far to the north, he would be able to see a very strange carriage pulled by a native dog on the horizon.
Although this was a standard double-column carriage, the native dog looked effortless and relaxed, and finally pulled the carriage carrying two passengers, one large and one small, to a stop in front of a Nord tomb.
"Where is this?" Arthur asked in a bad tone.
"Ustengra." Babas replied, wagging his tail.
"When I wanted to rent a carriage, you said that you don't need horses or a driver, you can pull us to the destination by yourself, huh?" Arthur picked up the one he got from the old magician Lot not long ago.
Ax of Regret" gestured at it.
"Put down that dangerous thing quickly - isn't this your destination?" Babas shook off the reins and jumped a few meters away.
"Yes, but how do you know?" Arthur frowned and looked at the ancient tomb not far away that was still covered with dirt and moss, and seemed to have risen from the ground not long ago.
"I am the dog of [Calavicus Vile]." The native dog bared his teeth. "Lord Vile is the demon god of summons, transactions and wishes. He is in charge of rituals, contracts and prayers. As long as you have a mission, I will help you."
You can see the destination of the mission, and if the mission target is a person or object, you can tell it immediately when you get close."
"How did I hear that he was the devil who broke contracts and cheated?" Arthur put on a distrustful expression, "Wasn't he the one who tricked the magician into cutting off his tail before?"
"Those who call you adults like this are naive guys who don't carefully check the terms of the contract and ignore the potential violation. But I am different from the master. Just tell me whether this is your most important destination." Babas asked Gu.
Tomb jogged a few steps, stopped again and looked back at Arthur.
"Well..." Arthur looked at the ancient tomb and thought for a moment, then finally shook his head, picked up Sophie and jumped out of the car.
Entrusted by Greybeard, Arthur had not told anyone about the fact that he was going to Ustengla to retrieve the horn owned by "Jorgen Windcaller", the first person to study the "Way of Roar".
After all, the comrades are in a tense confrontation with Silver Hand. It is very dangerous to disperse the troops at this time, but since they have arrived here and the available combat power is not weak, it is okay to give it a try, but...
"Can you see my other tasks?" Arthur remembered something and asked the native dog again.
"Huh? Over there, and over there -" Babas raised his front paws and pointed in the direction of Loristed and Snowrun City, "But the distance was too far and blurry, so I chose the nearest one."
It seems that even if it is a dog raised by the devil and can talk, its logical analysis ability is very poor. Arthur breathed a sigh of relief and threw the "Ax of Regret" to Babas: "You seem to be able to fight with it? Take it,
If a fight breaks out, I won't have time to take care of you afterwards."
"Hey, this ax contains half of the adult's power, and I have the other half. Now you can completely think of me as the devil himself." Babas rushed over and picked up the ax handle with his teeth.
Hmm...a demon in the form of a dog with an ax in his mouth...Arthur said he couldn't imagine it.
"Incredible." Sophie was obviously amused by the juggling-like action of the dog holding an ax in its mouth.
"Don't eat the things inside casually," Arthur touched Sophie's little head: "They are all corpses from many years ago. Eating them will cause stomach upset."
——18:31——
According to Arthur's knowledge, Jorgen Windcaller was a famous dragon roar user and legion leader in the First Era. He had participated in the "Battle of Red Mountain" that led to the disappearance of the dwarves. It was during this battle that
He tried his best to use the dragon roar but still failed, so he began to doubt whether the dragon roar was suitable for participating in the battle, and then left the battlefield to study the "Roar Way" of using the dragon roar for prayer and sacrifice, and eventually became the first in history
A "grey beard".
Judging from the location of his tomb "Ustengla", Jorgen Windcaller's hometown is probably Mosar, a small city with thousands of years of history. His own tomb is probably not that big.
Because his former subordinates followed and were buried with him after his death, the ancient tomb finally became larger and larger. Now that it has been rediscovered, those brave ancient warriors will wake up again to protect their leader.
And fight.
Breaking through the interception of these ancient warriors, cracking the traps and puzzles set by Jorgen, and finally obtaining the "Windcaller's Horn" that was buried with him were the trials given to Arthur by the current leader of Greybeard, Iron Gale.
"He may have expected that I would have helpers, but he definitely didn't expect that I would bring a young dragon in the form of a girl and a demon in the form of a dog." Arthur's Sky Forge sword was unsheathed for a long time, but it was completely useless.
Barbas goes around with the "Ax of Regret" in his mouth, hitting everything in front of him, whether it's a corpse or a ghost. Even if it occasionally slips through the net, it will be killed before it staggers towards Arthur.
Sophie slapped him away.
【Fus!】【Ro!】【Dah!】
When Arthur got bored collecting trophies and was thinking about whether to transform and join the battle, with a huge dragon roar, Babas flew back spinning.
"How strange!" The native dog seemed completely uninjured. He rolled on the ground and stood up, still shouting excitedly, "Even if he is dead, he hasn't been seen for a long time!"
Ignoring Babas' unclear words, Arthur raised his eyes and looked forward. There was a tomb hall that was much more solemn than all the tomb chambers he had passed before when he went deeper. Except for the meaningless sculptures, funerary urns and sarcophagi, the most interesting thing was
What attracts people's attention is the three high-backed stone chairs side by side in the front. Sitting on each of them is a dwarf ghoul wearing heavy dwarf armor...?
Although their eyes glow blue and their exposed skin is as shriveled as other ghouls, they are shorter and stronger than ordinary ghouls. If you think about it for a moment, the previous sentence of "dragon roar and spitting out eyes" seems to be shouted by three voices in succession.
.
Although Barbas was roared away, these heavily armored ghouls, who were probably dwarves, did not pursue him. Instead, they sat firmly on the high-backed chairs motionless, staring silently at Arthur, the girl, and the dog.
"Can I eat them? Dad~" The girl looked at the three dwarf ghouls with burning eyes, and it was clearly written on her little face - something I have never seen before, I really want to try it.
"No." Arthur pressed Sophie's shoulder to prevent her from rushing over to speak: "There seems to be no way to go deeper here, but I don't think Jorgen Windcaller is a dwarf."
"The loyalty of dwarves is difficult to gain, but if you successfully gain their allegiance, you will not hesitate even if you die in service." Babas did not dare to approach again and put down the ax in his mouth to explain.
"Loyal gravekeepers? But what are they guarding...ah, I understand." Arthur took Sophie back. Although the little girl was a little dissatisfied, she didn't say anything.
This is the resting place of the first Greybeard. Naturally, he would not want to be disturbed by grave robbers and the like, but if an outstanding descendant came to visit, he would be happy to receive it, and he wanted to distinguish between the two.
If so, the simplest method is——
Arthur took a deep breath, adjusted his position so that the dragon's roar could affect the three dwarves at the same time, and then exhaled and spoke:
“[Fus Ro Dah!]”
Due to the long distance and the large range of influence, even the complete spitting of three runes would only make the dwarf ghouls lean back slightly. But the next moment, the stone chairs on which these dwarf ghouls were sitting were directly opposite to them.
The wall behind was completely shattered, revealing a set of dragon language characters with extremely sharp strokes that Arthur had seen several times behind the wall.
[Feim], "Void Spirit Transformation", turns oneself into a "ghost" that can penetrate any obstacle in a short period of time.
The moment he saw this word, Arthur understood its meaning and usage and it was deeply ingrained in his mind. When he was thinking about where to find a dragon to activate it, the three dwarf ghouls directly began to smash and disappear.
The crimson energy was transmitted to Arthur, and when they disappeared completely, the "dragon soul" transmitted just made the rune fully activated.
"Dad, eat it secretly!" Originally, Arthur was worried that Sophie would be frightened again, but her reaction was a little unexpected. Obviously, the little girl could still accept it as long as she didn't directly absorb the soul from the dead dragon.
"Dad will find you other delicious food when you get back." Although he learned a new dragon roar, the target "Windcaller's Horn" is still missing. Arthur comforted his daughter while observing the surroundings.
"Strange...why is your mission target behind this wall?" After the dwarf disappeared, Babas began to wander around the hall with an ax in his mouth, scratching the wall with his claws at the moment.
Not only does it test whether you have the inheritance, but also the speed of mastering the dragon's roar is also within the scope of the test? Arthur walked over and knocked on the wall. Well, it was solid.
If the person who receives the inheritance cannot master the runes on the spot and leaves temporarily and returns after learning successfully, those ghouls who were originally disturbed but did not dare to mess around under the suppression of the dwarf ghouls will all crawl out of the coffin.
The difficulty of the second entry will only be higher than the first time.
"Thank you." Arthur nodded to Barbas, and then shouted: "[Feim!]"
Then, his whole body completely transformed into a blue and transparent form, and he walked through the wall.
Passing through the thick stone wall, there is a very hidden small tomb surrounded by water. On the "island" in the middle, there is a small dark sarcophagus. Just above the sarcophagus, there is a tray like a candlestick hanging.
It's not a candle, but a white, delicate, handicraft-like horn.
"Well, okay, what now?" Arthur took off the horn, but nothing changed around him. He thought for a moment, raised the horn to his mouth, and blew hard.
【Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin!naal ok zin los vahriin!】
【wah dein vokul,mahfaeraak ahst vaal,】
【Ahrk fin norok paal graan,fod nust hon zindro zaan!】
【Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!】
When Arthur simply wanted to blow it without using any skills, the horn emitted a majestic and rhythmic dragon roar. Unfortunately, since it was not in the form of a dragon, Arthur could not say a single word.
Didn't understand.
Boom boom boom——! Six giant dragon head sculptures rose symmetrically from the water around Jorgen Windcaller's sarcophagus. At the same time, the water surface dropped, revealing a road leading to the previous tomb, and at the end of the road, a thick stone wall
Parted to both sides, revealing Babas who was in a daze outside and Sophie with an amazed look on her face.
"Dad, you sing so beautifully!" the little girl praised loudly from a distance.
