Now it’s time to use Longxiao Palace to capture Aoda...ah?
——4E, 201, Hearth Moon, 26th, 12:31——
Hrothgar's Peak, Abbey.
Sophie was obviously very dissatisfied with Arthur's silent disappearance for the whole day, which could be seen from the intensity with which she wiped the breath marks on Arthur's body, while Arthur, who was obviously in the wrong, could only smile bitterly.
Running to meet a lady and then being ambushed on the way back and forth is useless, especially when one of the dogs is pretending to be dead.
"As for what 'Alduin' said when he attacked you, we have some confirmation," Master Aingeir said, stroking his beard and changing the topic: "According to observations, Skyrim Province has been attacked in many places during this period, such as mages.
Academy, the convoy from Rift Valley City to Solitude, somewhere outside Morningstar and near Falkreath."
"Well... three and a half..." Arthur thought: "But how do you 'see' it?"
Speaking of which, it seemed that it was these gray-bearded masters who first discovered me passing by the village at the foot of the mountain and contacted him.
"What we practice is the 'Way of Roar'. Unless it is powerful enough to block our gaze, the status of each dragon or roar user's dragon roar is within our control." Aingale
The master said.
"Or hide in a place with a roof and use Dragon Roar." Master Ainas added.
"So, where is the 'World Devourer Alduin'?" Arthur asked: "Always being passively attacked is not an option. I have to find an end to it."
Whether it is the conflict between the "Dragonborn" who has many concerns and the "World-Destroying Dragon" who wants to destroy everything, or the conflict between the "Evil of this World" and the "World Devourer", Arthur has been pushed to the extreme.
Without engaging in a life-and-death battle with Alduin, as for those theories of epochs and reincarnation, we have to wait until the battle is over before considering them slowly, and only the victors are qualified to consider them.
"On this point, the answer is 'I don't know'." Master Aingale shook his head: "Alduin's body has not emitted a dragon roar, or in fact it has emitted it but in other areas that we cannot access."
"The way it incarnates itself in other dragons is not dragon roar, but a special magic that can only be cast with the consent of the target in advance. Most dragons have not recovered their own minds, so they cannot 'refuse'
'." Master Ainas added.
Hmm... no mind? Arthur looked out at Salokniel, who was playing with Rabbit out of boredom in the courtyard.
Even a rabbit would refuse an instruction like "Give up control of your body and give it to me."
"My dear daughter, have you ever heard any strange noises?" Arthur asked Sophie while Salokniel wasn't paying attention.
"No~Dad~" The anger was almost gone after wiping the armor for a while, but now that she heard this title, the little girl replied happily.
Well, it's so coaxing.
"I'll take my leave first, Master," Arthur greeted the two graybeards, took Sophie to the courtyard, and spoke to the black dragon: "Salocnir, have you received Alduin?"
Recruiting body contact?”
"[Ha, of course, that guy put forward that stupid condition just after he woke me up, and I rejected it without hesitation.]" Salokniel replied: "[Now think about it, should those blade warriors deserve it?"
It must have been caused by it, because I have already guessed that I am not the kind of brainless dragon that can be controlled.】"
Yes, it's not brainlessness, it's incompetence. That's why he knew how to protect Sophie even though he knew he couldn't escape. That's worthy of praise.
"So, you don't have any clues about Alduin's true identity?" Arthur asked with a glimmer of hope.
"[If I have to say it, yes.]" Saloknir replied: "[In its 'current state', it should be a giant dragon without a 'Dragon Soul', so it must be in the 'Well of Souls' leading to Sognard."
'Rest next to it to avoid falling into a deep sleep. The 'Alduin' that currently appears in various places are all its incarnations borrowing the bodies of other dragons.】"
"Hmm..." Arthur started thinking.
From the history he saw using the Elder Scrolls and the dreams that could not be used as evidence, the unusually huge Alduin should have been complete, and it was not at the same level as the current "Alduin" that is no different from an ordinary dragon.
Yes, this is probably because he was exiled by the three warriors for too long and lost his dragon soul, so he degenerated.
"So, you must not know the location of the Well of Souls?" Arthur asked Salokniel.
"[Who said - hum, I really don't know about this.]" Saloknir raised his paw and threw a dead tree far away, and Rabbit chirped and chased after it.
"Do you want to ask Paarthurnax? But it won't drop us again, right?" Arthur looked in the direction of the peak.
"[You can try to ask questions in dragon language,]" Salokniel glanced at him: "[The 'Way of Roar' created by Lord Dragon King governs the roar of dragons in the world. I should be able to hear your words...right?"
"Well... let me try, 'Do you know the location of the Well of Souls?' The pronunciation of soul is... and the location..." Arthur said to himself.
Salokniel stared at Arthur, ready to laugh at his grammatical errors.
boom--
The next second, Arthur suddenly transformed into a huge red dragon and shouted towards the top of the mountain: "[Paarthurnax, Lord Dragon King, do you know the location of the Well of Souls?]"
"[Cough cough cough!]" Salokniel was choked directly: "[If I had done this earlier, why would I have to translate it!]"
"[The grammar of several connections is unclear.]" Arthur said innocently.
"[I don't know -]" Paarthurnax's voice came down from the peak like rolling thunder: "[But the 'Frost Sky Hunter' knows that it was it that awakened Alduin in my era.
]"
"[Who?]" Arthur wanted to ask, but was stopped by Salokniel.
"[I know that guy,]" Salokniel looked Arthur up and down: "[If you want to summon him, it's really a challenge.]"
"[No matter how powerful it is, it is still a dragon.]" Arthur replied without knowing why.
"[We actually very doubt whether he is a dragon,]" Salokniel explained: "[Have you ever seen a dragon create a dragon roar with its own name? Whenever anyone encounters difficulties, he uses the dragon roar method.
Call out his name, and he will rush over at extremely high speeds to deal with it, regardless of whether the person shouting it is a dragon or a mortal. It is precisely in this way that Alduin will use it.]"
It seems... very similar to someone in my impression, but she shouldn't be so ostentatious... Wait, who?
"[Isn't that just right? It will save us the trouble of finding him.]" Arthur shook his head: "[So, what's the name?]"
"[Odahviing]," Saloknir said with a bit of schadenfreude, "just try it: [Od], [ah] and [viing]."
Although it feels a bit strange, the opponent should be just a dragon anyway. Even if there is any accident, you can secretly use Dragon Break to reverse the situation.
"[Od ah viing!]" Arthur raised his head and shouted directly towards the sky.
He felt the difference as soon as the dragon roar was spoken. If other dragon roars used dragon language to drive magic, change things, and change themselves, this strange dragon roar was simply a messenger of some kind. The moment the words were spoken, they
Flying into the distance at extremely high speeds, it was received by a certain being.
——13:36——
Whoosh——
Arthur waited inexplicably for a while, during which Salokniel's gloating expression never disappeared. When he finally couldn't help but ask, a strong gust of wind blew up, and then a huge shadow covered the sun.
"[Aoda Weiying~The mission must be achieved~]" A clear, elegant, calm and pleasant male voice sounded: "[Sorry, because no one has called for thousands of years, the movement is a little slow.]"
Click, with a soft landing sound, a handsome red dragon appeared in front of Arthur.
Although it is very inappropriate to use "handsome" to describe a dragon, should we say "beautiful"? You can tell from the voice that it is a male, no, a male.
He has a graceful figure, a slender neck, well-proportioned limbs and wings, and the delicate rose-red scales on his back without any flaws or scratches, shining brightly in the sun, and the most eye-catching thing is his beautiful golden eyes.
With his vertical pupils, no matter who he is looking at, he can make the other person feel that he is being trusted and understood.
"No, it's terrible..." Sophie stumbled.
"[This is your daughter, she is so cute.]" Aoda Weiying nodded and smiled at Sophie, then looked at Arthur: "[Excuse me, do you have any troubles?]"
Hell, Arthur finally understood what Salokniel's expression was like. With such a red dragon appearing in front of him, the giant dragon he transformed into was incomparable anyway and was completely reduced to a foil.
"[I want to destroy 'Alduin']" Arthur forced himself to ignore the issue of appearance and started talking about business: "[I hope you can take me to find the 'Well of Souls' where he is hiding.]"
"[It seems that you are also a warrior who is determined to save the world,]" Aoda Weiying shook his head slightly: "[But unfortunately, I must solemnly refuse this request.]"
"[What's the reason?]" Arthur frowned and began to think about the possibility of using force or asking Paarthurnax to come forward.
"[During the Dragon Empire, it was my mistake that allowed the 'Eater of Worlds' to awaken," Audaweiying said: "[In order to make up for my mistakes, I specifically sought help from Lord Akatosh to banish him.
He found a way to reach the time and space that had lost all its power, and handed it over to three human warriors, and they successfully banished it.】"
Oh... Arthur thought of the "Elder Scroll" that Alduin finally spit out in the illusion. I'm afraid it was that thing that made it so huge.
"[At this time, Alduin is sleeping in the Well of Souls, and is almost unable to interfere with the outside world except for those dragon incarnations who are inadvertently affected by him, and those dragons will sooner or later be reburied by humans.]" Odawei
Ying looked at Arthur firmly: "[Without enough stimulation, he will not be able to wake up again, so I will not let you destroy this 'eternal seal'.]"
"[Hmm... Let's assume you know what things can excite him,]" Arthur looked at the beautiful red dragon in front of him strangely: "[I was called the 'evil of this world' by him, and I have been called a dragon by him.
The group besieged him twice.]"
"[What-what!]" The elegant posture that this red dragon had maintained since its appearance broke.
