The Collection of The End

My name is Akatosh,

I probably guessed what was going on here.

-- 4E, 201, Hearthfire, 2nd, 18:29 --

This road extending south from Loristed is paved with gravel. After it bypasses the branch of the Hanluo Mountains, it forks when it approaches Lake Elintana. The road along the lake that turns left passes a sentinel The back of the tower leads to the city of Falkreath, while the straight fork leads to the capital province of Cyrodiil in the south, and will eventually be cut off by a fortress acting as a pass in the mountains.

And to go to the target of the comrades-in-arms group, the Green Jasmine Witch Villa, you need to embark on the forest path that turns right, and look for it near the foot of the mountain. After all, the specific information about the place is very vague due to the age. Whether it is a cave, a ruin, or a house cannot be determined.

"This is very close to our destination," Ella said, looking at the signposts standing on the branch road. "Now we need to consider whether to go directly or wait for Arthur to come and join us."

"Arthur... who is it?" Sinding wrapped himself tightly in the worn mage robe, and a trembling voice came from under the hood.

"A comrade-in-arms, who was on another mission before." Ella glanced at him.

She really couldn't understand the wild werewolf's thoughts. Since she tried to hurt Ria or Lavisia out of control, she should apologize honestly and get along with her previous attitude after being forgiven.

It's good now, the little girl made it clear that she doesn't care, but he looks like he owes a lot and wants to make up for it with all his strength. When he is on the road during the day, he takes care of everything whether he needs it or not. The recognizable hooded robes...

Ella felt that if the two of them were strangers to her, she might beat Sinding away because of a bad first impression.

However, now he seemed to shrink back, as if he was afraid of something?

"If, if I lose control, please stop me immediately without hesitation." The sun was about to set, and the blue and orange colors gradually gradually changed near the horizon, but when Xin Ding looked in that direction, he seemed to see something extremely scary stuff.

Inevitable out-of-control transformation? Ayla glanced suspiciously at Sinding's right hand. The ring he was wearing [Ring of Hircine] was indeed a bit strange and could not be removed from his hand at all, and he could faintly feel a beast's breath from it. Level of magic jewelry, even if it can turn a person into a werewolf, it is not qualified to be named a demon god.

"Is it okay to kill?" Lydia asked with a glance at him.

"Uh, please try not to do that." Xin Ding seemed to tremble murderously.

"Sister Lydia is joking with you~ isn't it?" Ria comforted, and at the same time asked Lydia for confirmation, but the baron guard just nodded casually.

Heh, Ella thought dully, this kind of promise is completely useless, if necessary, she will definitely not hesitate at that time... um, shoot that werewolf to death with a shield?

——18:46——

"One of you, do you have to go at night?" After walking into the woods along the path, Xin Ding began to shrink back due to the complete disappearance of the sun, and subconsciously moved away from Ria and approached Lydia, who was pounding all over his body.

"According to the records, those crow hags generally don't come and go during the daytime." Ella, who walked through the forest and grass like walking on the ground, glanced at him: "Even if we can find a place, we have to wait until dark."

This guy is still worried that he will hurt someone? If it's not necessary, Ayla even plans to make Lia transform and compete with him to see whose claws are sharper.

"I really don't know what you are going to do with those crow hags. They are all profiteers with no reputation." Xin Ding muttered.

Why does it sound like he's been tricked?

"Hehehe~ I can't pretend that I didn't hear this~" Before Ella was about to say something,

A strange female voice sounded from the side of the team, and the three immediately formed a defensive formation to protect Riya in the middle.

"Who am I? It turned out to be the puppy who reneged and ran away~" Accompanied by a series of strange words that gave people a series of different feelings at the same time, such as pure, charming, hoarse, and cold, a female figure appeared in front of everyone.

This... With Ella's knowledge and experience, she couldn't help but take half a step back.

According to Kraco Whitemane's description, the raven hag is a strange creature whose hands are replaced by wings and whose legs are eagle claws, so Ella has always guessed that they should be "birds with human heads"...

Sure enough, there is something wrong with the old man's aesthetics! No wonder a lot of age can not find a wife!

When this "crow hag" appeared, Ella thought she saw a certain noble lady at the lord's banquet, with a white close-fitting gauze skirt, a long and fluffy back hem, and hair accessories hanging down the white gauze. Like the kind of dress that can only be worn at parties, gets dirty easily, and is flashy.

After calming down a little, Ella realized that those "veil skirts", "back skirts" and "hair bundles" were all composed of large pieces of white feathers—she actually wove a beautiful dress with her own feathers.

The so-called replacement of hands with wings is also nonsense. This woman has normal hands, but a large wing-like feather has grown on the back of her forearm, forming a shape similar to a dress sleeve, which is exactly in line with her body. "Dress" match.

The only thing Kraco was right about was her feet. This woman's feathers were not enough to cover her whole body. You could see that dark yellow horny skin appeared on her white legs from the knee down, and the color became darker as she went down. When I saw a pair of sharp claws of a bird of prey, I saw a pair of weird "shoes" made of horny with sharp high roots.

"How is it~ Isn't it good-looking?" The woman smiled at the huntress, and Ella realized that she was not inferior to those real ladies even in appearance.

"Uh, doesn't it hurt?" Ella pointed to her "shoes". Although they looked like leather boots as a whole, no matter how you thought about them, they should be made of twisted claws.

"Well~ It's okay~" The woman replied while looking at Xin Ding: "At least this way I won't be called a 'monster' casually~"

"Don't believe her words!" Xin Ding said loudly: "The more beautiful a woman is, the more she will deceive!"

stare--

Now not only the "crow hag", Ella, Lydia and even Ria turned their heads to stare at him.

"I mean--not all crow hags look like this, she dresses herself up like this to deceive people better!" Sin Ding took a few steps back in fright, and then continued.

"Well, have you lied to him? This...'witch'?" Ella felt that it was inappropriate to call her the crow hag, so she intercepted two words from the destination of the trip, "Green Jasmine Witch's Villa". use.

"Although we used to be 'witches', our current form is called 'harpies' by Lord Hircine~" she replied, "You can call me 'Aviana'~"

"Okay, Aviana, I'm Ella." The huntress nodded.

"I know why you are here, Ella, Lydia, and... Lavisia~" Aviana nodded and smiled, then looked at Sinding who was on guard: "He is a werewolf, I think you all know~ "

"He found us~ wanted to remove the werewolf blood, but couldn't pay the price~ so he chose a method that can no longer 'uncontrollable transformation'~"

"Liar! After I wear that ring, I will still transform uncontrollably!" Although Xin Ding was far away, he could still hear clearly, so he refuted loudly.

"We successfully changed him from 'uncontrolled transformation' to 'being controlled by Lord Hircine', but he seems very dissatisfied~" Aviana spread her hands: "One hundred and twenty coins Buying a ring with gold coins is already very cheap~”

"Isn't that even worse?!" Xin Ding's voice was getting louder, but the distance was getting farther and farther away, as if he was going to run away if he made a mistake.

"Hmm..." Ella frowned and looked at Ria beside her.

In this way, it was not an accident that Sinding suddenly transformed and attacked her, but the Demon God of Hunting consciously wanted to kill Ria... But why? Because she can easily transform into a werewolf? But that shouldn't be the case. Although the demon god's actions cannot be deduced logically, at least there should be a purpose. What is he trying to do by killing a potentially powerful believer for no reason? If you don't believe in Him, even if you die, you can't take away your soul.

As a werewolf capable of self-control, Ella couldn't understand Sinding's plight at all, so she had to put the topic aside temporarily and ask Aviana about her original purpose of coming here.

"Do you want to remove the werewolf blood completely?" Aviana thought for a while, then plucked a feather from her arm, went to Ella and began to shake it: "Well, try not to move~"

"Huh? Huh?" Ella stood firmly on the spot, but with the shaking of Aviana's feathers, she felt something shaking in her body.

Chi...boom——

A fire rose from Aviana's palm, burning the feather to ashes, and Ella felt "the thing" rushing forward, almost knocking herself down.

"That's the 'wolf soul' in the bloodline," Aviana clapped her hands: "As long as enough harpy feathers are burned, they will be attracted and jump out of the bloodline, and then you just need to kill it with your own hands."

"His own hands?" Ayla frowned. Others could say, how does Riya kill a wolf soul? If the power I felt before came from the wolf soul, it would not be easy for one person to deal with it.

"It's okay to help, but I have to leave it to her~" Aviana explained.

"What! Lavisia too? When!" Sinding yelled again.

It would be more convenient for him to transform earlier and knock us out...

"So, how many feathers are needed, and what is the cost?" Ayla asked the most important question.

"All of them, girl," Aviana sighed: "You need to pay a huge amount of rewards, enough for a harpies to be willing to pluck out all the feathers on her body and turn back into a mortal—per person."

"It's faster to kill—poof!" Xin Ding was blown away by the whirlwind halfway through his words, and hit the tree trunk behind him hard.

"You can try it~" Aviana slowly lifted into the air, and countless sharp wind blades began to gather around her.
