With the departure of the black dragon, the battle also came to an end. Although the arrival of the black dragon destroyed most of the town, but fortunately, because An deployed the barrier in time, some of them survived.

After that, Duanmu Huai and others were also summoned by the Imperial Legion.

"Are you the ones who repelled the dragon's attack?"

Standing in front of Duanmu Huai was a short, bald man. He was General Tullius of the Imperial Legion. To be honest, when he first saw Duanmu Huai, General Tullius was shocked, but soon , he agreed that the group of adventurers in front of him had the strength to repel the dragon.

It can be seen that looking fierce is indeed beneficial.

"Who are you?"

"We are just a group of adventurers who passed by here by chance."

"Adventurer?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, General Tullius looked at the girls behind him suspiciously, but soon he looked away.

"In any case, you have done me a great favor. Here, on behalf of the empire, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

As he spoke, General Tullius took out a bag of coins.

"This is my personal wish, please accept it, and... Since you are adventurers, I hope you can do me a favor."

"What's up?"

Duanmuhuai took the purse and looked at General Tullius, he didn't mind helping. After all, the group of them did not have the coins of this country, so if something happened and they needed money, it would be somewhat helpful.

"I think you have also seen that there is an evil dragon wandering in this land. We need to be more vigilant, so I hope you can go to Snowrun City for me and inform the Lord Balgruuf there."

As he spoke, General Tullius took out a letter.

"This is my personal letter, and he will know what's going on after reading it."

"No problem at all."

Duanmu Huai took the letter and nodded.

"However...we are not very familiar with the situation here. It would be great if someone could lead the way."

"Hahaha, you don't look like a local here."

General Tullius didn't seem to care about Duanmuhuai's answer, he just nodded and gestured. Soon, an imperial soldier came out and saluted General Tullius respectfully.

"General."

"Take them to Snowrun City."

"yes."

The imperial soldiers nodded, then looked at Duanmuhuai and the others, and saluted them as well.

"plz follow me."

"All right."

It happened that Duanmu Huai also wanted to know the situation here and the current form of the empire, so he did not refuse. Soon, the group packed up their bags and set out on the road again.

On the way, from the mouth of the imperial soldier named Hadawa, Duanmuhuai and the others finally understood what the current civil war here was like.

In the final analysis, it can be said to be a dispute between faith and race.

Although Skyrim Province does belong to the Empire in name, the two sides are actually divided and united. Sometimes unified, sometimes independent.

However, this time the rebellion is related to the Talos belief in Skyrim Province.

The Empire believes in nine gods, also known as the Nine Holy Spirits, and Talos is one of them. But unlike other gods, Talos was not a god from the beginning, but was transformed into a god by a mortal.

But some people don't think so, that is the high elves from the ancestors of Shenzhou.

In history, the ancestors of Shenzhou and the empire can be described as mortal enemies. The two sides have fought against each other several times, but the reality is that the Thalmer elves are now powerful, while the empire is gradually declining. Under such circumstances, the empire had no choice but to sign the "Platinum Agreement" in shame, and only then did they barely reach peace between the two.

However, one of the contents of the Platinum Agreement aroused the anger of the Nords in the province of Skyrim—that is, the Platinum Agreement required that the empire not recognize the Ninth Holy Spirit, that is, the war from man to god and Talos, the mortal god. . Even for this reason, the Thalmer elves dispatched a team to station in Skyrim Province in the name of supervising the Platinum Agreement, massacring the followers of Talos.

Faced with this situation, the Nords certainly couldn't bear it, so the rebel forces headed by Ulfric were also formed from this. Their slogan was that Skyrim is the land of the Nords, and Talos is the god worshiped by the Nords. , so they want to drive out all enemies who dare to destroy their beliefs and kill their people from Skyrim Province, whether it is Sommer, the Empire or others!

In this way, the province of Skyrim fell into civil war and rebellion, until recently, they managed to capture Ulfric.

Hmm... As a result, when the black dragon attacked, he ran away.

Now General Tullius had to send someone after him, otherwise it would be even more troublesome when Ulfric returned to his territory.

Although Hadvar, as a local, was also very dissatisfied with the actions of the Thalmor elves, he did not think it would be a better choice for Ulfric to set off a rebellion. That's why he joined the Imperial Legion instead of joining the Rebels.

It has to be said that after listening to Hadawa's narration, Duanmuhuai didn't have any good feelings for the Thalmer elf and the ancestor Shenzhou. What's more, as a judge, Duanmu Huai himself fights to protect humans, how dare you, a mere elf, ride on the heads of humans? I think you are tired of living and want to die, right?

Hmm... If it really doesn't work, how about an orbital air strike on the ancestor Shenzhou?

Forget it, anyway, this is not in a hurry.

"That's right, Gulea."

While heading to Xueman City under the leadership of Hadawa, Duanmuhuai looked at the dragon girl beside him.

"What was the dragon roar you mentioned just now?"

"That's a legend of the Dragon Clan..."

Perhaps because of recalling the power of the black dragon before, Gu Leya's expression became a little unsightly.

"I remember legends saying that in ancient times, dragons possessed great power, and even just the sounds and languages ​​they made were enough to change the world. I thought it was just a legend..."

Speaking of which, the black dragon just let out a cry before it started raining meteors... How powerful is the dragon roar?

"You won't?"

"this……………"

Facing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Gu Leya showed embarrassment.

"Sorry, this is just a legend in Regnese. I didn't expect to meet a dragon that can really use the dragon roar here. In fact, I just heard that it seemed to be talking, but What it said, I have no idea at all."

Well, this is also normal, like the language of thousands of years ago, not many people can speak it now, if people from the Tang Dynasty traveled to modern times, language communication may also be a problem.

"Everyone, we are going to Snowman City soon."

At this time, Hadawa's voice also brought back Duanmuhuai's attention, raised his head and looked forward, and saw a stone city standing on the plain not far in front of him, although it didn't look like that. It's not as big as Manalia's city, but it's still a bit of a scale—of course, as far as Duanmuhuai is concerned, this kind of city is now at the level of a village.

But as far as the level of this place is concerned, it is already considered good.

Soon, a group of people came outside the city, but when they were about to enter the gate, they found that the entire gate had been completely blocked, and there were heavily armed soldiers standing on the wall and outpost next to it. Soon, a soldier came in front of the crowd. He first glanced at Duanmuhuai with lingering fear, then withdrew his gaze and roared loudly.

"Stop! Due to the presence of giant dragons nearby, the city gates have been closed, and only those dealing with official business are allowed in and out!"

"We are here in the name of Imperial General Tullius!"

Not to be outdone, Hadawa hastily expressed his intention.

Duanmuhuai also reached out his hand and took out the letter from his pocket. Seeing the seal on it, the guard froze for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay, go in, but be careful, we will watch you!"

While talking, he glared at Duanmuhuai——well, there is no need to ask who this sentence is addressed to.

Soon, the gate opened, and a group of people entered Xueman City.

Just as Duanmu Huai thought, the entire Xueman City doesn't look that big, but the houses are well arranged, and there is a somewhat peaceful and peaceful atmosphere. It's just that the heavily armed soldiers around made the atmosphere a bit tense.

The arrival of Duanmuhuai and others naturally attracted the attention of other people in the city, but they just hid in the house from a distance, quietly watching this burly man wearing a terrifying armor, not daring to say anything . Soon, under the escort of the guards, Duanmuhuai and others came to the Longxiao Palace located at the highest point of the city, and met with the lord of Xueman City, Lord Balgruf.

"I see………"

After reading the letter sent by Duanmuhuai, Lord Balgruf frowned. He was an old man who looked about fifty or sixty years old. He had the long beard and hair unique to the Nords. The momentum of the ruler.

"Hergen was attacked by a dragon and was destroyed. Ulfric, who was supposed to be executed, also escaped. It's really a headache..."

"grown ups!"

At this time, a courtier standing beside Lord Balgruf hurriedly spoke.

"We should gather our troops immediately and guard Snowrun City to prevent dragons from attacking here!"

"So you mean, you want me to give up my people? Let them be attacked by dragons?"

Hearing this, Lord Balgruuf raised his brows and slapped the chair hard.

"I would never do that, Irileth!"

While speaking, Lord Balgruuf looked at another woman beside him.

"Immediately send detachments to other towns to ensure that they will not be attacked by giant dragons, and..."

"boom!!!"

However, Lord Balgruf hadn't finished speaking when suddenly the door of the hall was smashed open, and then a soldier rushed in out of breath.

"Report, report Lord Lord, it's not good! Giant dragon! There is a giant dragon! It's in the southern sentry tower!"

"What!?"

Hearing this, Lord Balgruf couldn't help standing up.

"What did it do? Was it attacking the tower?"

"I don't know, my lord, it was hovering over my head as I walked. I've never run so fast before. . . . I thought it was bound to catch up."

At this moment, the guard was also pale and sweating profusely. It was obvious that facing a giant dragon was a bit too scary for him.

"Okay, I see, young man, you go down first, go back to the barracks to eat something, and have a good rest."

After reassuring the orderly, Balgruuf thought for a moment, then looked at the guard captain beside him.

"Iriles, I ordered me to bring some guards to see what's going on there, and..."

While speaking, Lord Balgruf looked at Duanmuhuai and the others.

"Although it's a little impolite, I hope you can go together. According to General Tullius in the letter, you once repelled the dragon that attacked Helgen. You must have great power. So I hope I can ask you Go to the southern outpost with my guard captain Yiriles to find out what happened there. Of course, as a lord, I will also prepare enough rewards for you."

Hearing Lord Balgruf's request, Duanmu Huai frowned, then nodded.

"Of course, no problem."

Then, he opened his mouth to answer.
