Chapter 273 Morning Star and Nightmare

 My name is Akatosh,

This is a textbook case of seeking death...

——4E, 201, Hearth Moon, 13th, 9:43——

I am rushing back to the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary with Gallus, Ilia and Cicero.

The work of the Dark Brotherhood in Markarth City has come to an end. A strange balance has formed between the believers who believe in Di Bella and the Forsworn who worship the Red Eagle. Both sides want to completely defeat the other, but they all restrain themselves to avoid it.

Large-scale conflicts occurred, but such confrontations made ordinary residents who were not exposed to those battles feel much safer around the city, so they greatly appreciated the lord's management.

Due to my previous interference, there is no real irreconcilable conflict between the two of them. Sooner or later, they will gradually understand and merge with each other in the confrontation and conflict. When a lord in the future is born on the side of the Forsworn, this city will

It will truly become monolithic.

So, after I sent most of the truly unforgivable people to Artayum, Gallus, who really couldn't stand Cicero's "hey hey hey", proposed to return to the sanctuary. After all, Mu Rui is Dibella's saint.

As a woman, she no longer had to assassinate her sisters to gain attention, and Illya also gradually became impatient with those Dibella priests who always wanted to drag her to become a saint.

The return route was specially arranged by the Forsworn King, and most of the journey was under their control, so it was almost impossible to encounter enemies other than wild animals. After all, Gallus, who was holding the Red Eagle Sword, was now called

As the "awakener" of Red Eagle.

Regardless of these extra tasks, Gallus has completely identified with the "Night Mother", because the tasks I issued through Cicero, the listener, are very timely. Sometimes when he receives the task and goes to the ceremony location, the tasks entrusted there

Man's dark ritual has just ended.

'Blanka Jump Point, Shattered Tower Stronghold, Spear of Khas... It feels like something strange has been mixed in.' I flipped through the simple maps provided by the Forsworn King. The difference between these maps and general maps is that

It marked some occupied caves, ruins and strongholds within the Reach Territory, and also included a threat assessment, although this thing is of no use to me.

[In the Sky Temple, Delphine and Isbon are analyzing the causes of the dragon disaster and looking for solutions there. Do you need a live broadcast? 】

'No, that place is too dark,' I thought of preventing the stupid system from opening a new window. Now the surveillance of a lot of key people is giving me a headache: 'Speaking of how they passed the blockade of the two dragons.

?'

The Sky Temple Temple is the only way to pass through the main line of The Elder Scrolls. Its front door and back door are each guarded by a dragon. The Dragonborn protagonist must enter it with the help of the Blade Warrior survivors Delphine and Isborne.

Read the prophecy mural, and then go find the special dragon roar "Dragon Break" that can defeat Alduin, but now...

[There were no giant dragons wandering near the temple, and they were not hindered by anything when entering the temple. 】

'After all, this main plot was skipped due to Lao Pa stealing the show, and the Blade Warriors were not eliminated at all.'

And because of the farce between the real and fake princesses in Dugu City, the emperor is preparing to come to Tianji, and the eldest sister of the Blade Warriors will also accompany him.

"Oh, mother, is there anything worth killing nearby? (Hearts)" Cicero muttered as usual.

"[Not yet.]" I answered, switching the channel.

As the Night Mother, I will never issue a mission to assassinate the emperor. Let’s see how the Brotherhood Sanctuary will be destroyed this time~ Hum.

[Tip: Babette arrived at Morning Star, preparing to assassinate the mine owner Betiyod]

'In the end, Sister A was still unwilling to give up her power, so she took over the task again...'

After confirming that there would be no enemies or any changes here for the time being, I left Heizhen's illusion and secretly opened the Gate of Annihilation to teleport to Morning Star.

——10:06——

Morningstar City is the capital of the ancient pass "The Pale". To the east is the vast snowfield and hills where Arthur and the others fought before, and further to the east is the large crater caused by the collapse of Winterfort.

The city itself is surrounded by high mountains covered with snow all year round, making it almost impossible to develop agriculture. However, also because it is surrounded by mountains, its port is relatively warm, and the ice-free months are short. Through the port, it is transported and sold from the mines around the city.

The profits from mining various minerals are enough for the residents to maintain their lives. In other words, almost everyone in this city, regardless of men or women, is an excellent miner.

Betijud is a capable Nord woman. After several years of hard work, she owns an iron ore mine of her own. However, she is still willing to work in the mines with her employees. She often says this to her workers.

: "In Morningstar, there are no poor people, only lazy people." And the fact that the production capacity of her mine is among the best even if we look at the entire Morningstar, this sentence is very convincing.

For such a pragmatic female mine owner, even if someone admires the wealth she has created, it is impossible for them to have any dark thoughts, because everyone knows that the gold coins she obtains from selling minerals are not only used to maintain her life, which is only slightly more comfortable than ordinary people.

, all invested in the redevelopment of the mine and the welfare of the employees.

The person who performed the dark ritual to kill her, if the residents of Morning Star were to know, most people would be very shocked - he is Betiyod's husband, the owner of another mine, Regelf

.

The mine owned by Regalf does not produce ordinary copper or iron ore, but the more precious "mercury". Well, it is "silver ore" with "water patterns" rather than "mercury".

To excavate this precious mineral, which is used to make various jewelry, it is impossible to get something as long as you work hard like iron ore. What is more needed is luck. The criterion for selecting miners by Regalf is not that they are hard-working and able to endure hardships, but that they are hard-working and able to endure hardships.

With good or bad luck, for example, some adventurers who easily obtain a lot of loot will be invited by him to point out the direction of the next stage of mining in the mine.

Originally, the fact that the two of them fell in love and got married because of their complementary personalities was considered a good story in Morning Star. Many miners even wished that their children would "dig out mercury like iron ore" - well, at their level.

I can only express this kind of blessing.

However, the income of "doers" and "metaphysics" can be said to be very different when the latter's "luck" is not so good. From now on, the scale of the iron ore mine in Betiyod is Regel

This is fully proved by the fact that it is more than four times that of the husband mercury mine.

According to the video that Stupid System showed me, there have been many inexplicable disputes between them. In most cases, Betiyod accused Regalf of not working hard, and Regalf complained that Betiyod gave her

There are too many benefits for workers, so it is better to use them to hire more "lucky" workers.

In this case, even if Regalf was a bit scumbag, it was still within the understandable range, but later he inexplicably thought that Betiyod had ruined his "luck" and that it would get better as long as she stayed away from him, so

The two separated after a heated argument.

But even so, the situation in the mercury mines was still in dire straits and did not improve, so Regalf further believed that Betiyod's mere presence in the same city as him would interfere with his luck, and asked her to leave Morning Star many times.

Betiyod, who still has some illusions about her husband, entrusted the mine to her deputy and went on a trip. Recently, she rushed back to Morningstar because she was worried about the "resurrection of dragons" in various places. However, she was killed by Regalf, who had just suffered a landslide.

Angrily accusing her of deliberately destroying his mercury mine, he returned to his lonely house in sadness and refused to see him again.

So Regalf held a dark ritual a few days ago at a farm far away from Morning Star, asking the Dark Brotherhood to kill Betiyod to "restore luck."

Of course I would not forward such a stupid task, but Sister A obtained information about this task through her own channels, and was picked up by Babette.

Based on the logic of the five-hundred-year-old vampire and her indifference to human life, she would probably kill Betiyod directly, and then turn around and kill Regalf when he woke up from his dream and fell into regret.

Although I support teaching the scumbag a lesson, this method is not feasible. In any case, control Babette first. She seems to be preparing to lurk in the mine and take action when Betiyod has just entered and her eyes have not yet adapted.

The vampire race is affected by both humanoid and undead spells, and Zelapesh, as the chief mage of the Mage Academy and the saint of Ari-E, can do it without any help at all... huh?

At the entrance to Betiyod's mine, I remained invisible and was about to catch an oriole behind me, but I saw Babette yawning and falling asleep... Asleep?

[Get out of the way, that’s Vaermina’s Nightmare Swamp Breath (Quagmire gas)! 】

——10:16——

"What's the situation now?" I looked at the shining golden dragon Akatosh that just flew over from the sky, and the splendid Hall of Valor in the distance, and then turned to look at the many surveillance cameras floating on the fountain pool.

The "globe" in the picture and the little black dragon flapping its wings next to it.

Which demon suddenly took action and knocked out the mage's vest? Impossible.

[This is, um... the real oriole behind,] The stupid system replied: [What is certain now is that Regalf’s inexplicable dissatisfaction and murderous intention towards Betiyod were influenced by the nightmare of the demon Valmina

, and His purpose is to let Regelf kill his wife with his own hands. Your and Babette's actions will disrupt His plan, so he directly pulls you into the nightmare. 】

"Oh...Although Valmina can make Zera fall into a nightmare, she doesn't have the ability to pull my consciousness into it, so it pops up, right?" I looked at the sleeping Babette and Babette on the surveillance screen.

Zerapesh.

[More than that, he failed to pull you and ended up falling in. It can be said that he has actually been defeated. However, if you want to obtain the doomsday elements and the priesthood, you have to enter the nightmare to completely eliminate him. 】

"Hey," I confirmed that Joan's illusion could still be maintained, so I turned my attention to the surveillance camera at the entrance of the mine: "Welcome to the Einzbern Counseling Room EX level."
