The Collection of The End

My name is Akatosh,

Why do these people always make an appointment to do trouble together... Bah, it's so hard.

Skyrim, Solitude.

Einbjorn is a powerful werewolf, but he has never been infected with "werewolf disease", nor has he received the "blessing" of Hircine. The ability of "werewolf transformation" is completely self-awakened and belongs to his power Aside from uncontrollably turning into a werewolf on a full moon night, there is absolutely no risk of losing your mind and all the other attendant downsides.

Among those who were "blessed" by Hircine, a werewolf like him was called a "wild werewolf", which was quite low. After the "cave" knocked everyone down, those people no longer dared to call him that.

Relying on the induction between werewolves, he knew very well that there were a group of werewolves in the comrade-in-arms group, but exposing them would not do any good. It would be very troublesome to push the comrade-in-arms group who had always turned a blind eye to the Dark Brotherhood to the enemy.

However, there is a more troublesome thing now, Astrid, his wife, the current leader of the Brotherhood of Darkness in Skyrim Province, whose prestige has been greatly reduced due to the return of the "Night Mother", may soon become the "former leader" Now, the successor should not be that crazy clown, but probably Gallus or the very active Jeanne Darc who joined recently.

However, with Astrid's personality, it was completely impossible for her to admit defeat quietly.

For example, Einbjorn and Astrid were childhood sweethearts, and their parents made a marriage contract, but it was interrupted by the war between the Empire and Thalmer, and the two families separated.

After Ainbojorn awakened his werewolf blood, he thought he could not live a normal life, he approached Astrid and asked to break off the engagement, but he was beaten up. She declared, "Unless I give up, no one will give up Want to take what belongs to me!".

There is no need to mention the trivial things like discovering that each other is a werewolf/joined the Dark Brotherhood during the fight.

Now, in order to compete with [Night Mother] for influence, Astrid accepted the contract to assassinate the Emperor of the Empire. Although Einboyorn had doubts about this, he did not intend to persuade her to give up. It is an obligation to bring to the wife what she wants.

Thinking of this, Ain Boyorn, who was wearing a linen shirt, barefoot, and disheveled hair, looked exactly like a dock worker, walked into the dock at the port of Solitude.

——22:48——

Not that one... this one is not right...

Ain Bojorn is like a real dock worker moving goods in the dock. After all, this kind of manual work is usually hired temporarily, and they are not allowed to board the ship at all, so the inspection of the workers at the dock is not careful at all. , even though his physique was obviously much larger than those of the temporary employees, no one paid attention.

Earlier today, a total of twenty-five battleships from the Imperial Royal Fleet arrived at the port of Solitude one after another. Each of these seven-story, four-masted large galleons entering the port will cause bursts of cheers from the onlookers at the dock, as if they They have already seen the fleet sailing eastward proudly, blasting the Windhelm City to pieces.

I have to say that they are too naive. This fleet is obviously used by the emperor to show his strength to the vacillating "centrists" in Skyrim Province. If they really go to fight against the Stormcloak fleet, they will be the happiest. Somo.

Now what Ainbojorn is looking for is the ships that transport supplies. For a large fleet composed of multiple fleets, supplies have always been a hassle. All the cabins of the living supplies warehouse were occupied, so the combat effectiveness of one or two of the ships had to be abandoned, and all the cabins were used to load supplies-including the emperor's expenses, of course.

Since the emperor has just arrived, and Toig has a precedent of being assassinated, even if the emperor himself dared to eat the things in the sky, his royal guards would not agree, so the supplies on the ship will definitely be used a few days ago, so that First, it was Astrid's opportunity.

[Garlingen] is the most poisonous and weirdest thing in Tamriel and even in the world of Nirn. It is no problem to smell it, and it has no effect when it touches a bleeding wound. The only thing you can’t do is to eat it, taster It will die before it has time to taste it, just like a prank by a demon god.

However, someone would test the poison in advance before the emperor's meal, and such a ferocious toxicity would definitely be discovered. At this time, another thing-Nyrn root was needed.

This is a slow-acting poisonous medicinal material, which plays the role of "fighting poison with poison" in many alchemy healing formulas. When it is mixed with Galingen, a wonderful change will occur, and Galingen will continue to absorb Nai Before all the toxicity of Engen is completely absorbed, its own toxicity will completely disappear.

This "delayed onset" can easily bypass the drug tester, unless he tries half a day in advance.

"I found it..." Einbjorn glanced at the waterline of one of the sailboats, and when most of the ships became light due to the sailors coming ashore, it remained as calm as before.

The werewolf bent down, pressed the small waterproof herbal bag in the hidden pocket, took advantage of the change of light and shadow to take a few steps back and hid in the shadow that the torch could not reach, and then quietly sank himself into the water.

Blackfall, Twilight.

There was a mess outside the city wall. Within a few hours, countless mechanical spiders, a large number of spherical guards, and even a few tall centurions were all turned into scrap iron under the attack of the arrow towers, spear traps, and rotating blades that were suddenly activated. Occasionally, one or two lucky spherical guards rush to the gate of the city wall under the cover of other machines, and they will also be destroyed by the ram and the snow elves and adventurers guarding there.

At this time, the dwarven mechanical army retreated a little later to avoid the shooting from the arrow tower on the city wall. The snow elves who thought they had won a temporary victory cheered hoarsely, but Art seemed worried.

Unlike those simple or stupid compatriots, he figured out the mechanical action mode as early as an hour or so after the battle started.

They obviously received a "move" command pointing to the interior of the city, and these rigid machines can only have one way to achieve it-go to the city gate, break open the city gate, enter the city gate, and then be beaten to death by traps and guards.

But now, they have retreated. This is not the victory that those fools are cheering for, it just means that their commander has finally appeared. That person or something else will adjust the attack plan according to the results of the current attack. The city guards fighting on their own can't cope at all.

"Where are you..." Yate controlled a heavy dwarf crossbow, squinted his eyes and used the sight to look for any unique individuals in the mechanical army besieging the city.

The commander probably uses the same appearance as other machines, but there are still ways to find it—although this group of metal heads will not take the initiative to look at the commander, but because they do not need to send action instructions to other machines before acting, their The overall operation will definitely be faster than the commander - as long as the guys who look stupid are killed.

"Come out..." Art said to himself.

"Are you looking for me?" Snow Elf was patted on the shoulder.

He turned his head subconsciously, and then saw a fist zooming rapidly in front of his eyes.

boom!

After beating Yate unconscious, Ella shook her hand and shouted to the adventurers who were coming out of the tunnel beside her: "Attack freely! But remember to keep alive! Those controlled guys were in the same situation as you before!"

"Ha! I, Erik the bloodthirsty, never knew what it meant to hold hands!"

"Shall I keep your hand for you, rookie?"

"You can try it!"

"Marcorio (), you better keep your mouth shut!"

"Mjoll the lioness?"

"Ai Ling is gone, my mother is very upset now, you'd better not mess with me!"

Although the snow elf paladin's guess was correct, he obviously underestimated the means of his compatriots. These adventurers who were locked underground were controlled by [Blood Thistle] before, and their minds were muddled, because they were not deep enough to let them When they went out to fight, they would attack anyone who approached them. Ella and the others had to use an attack method that would not leave scars to wake them up. Although the awakening effect was very successful, these people also temporarily lost their fighting power and needed protection .

Rescuing a large number of people, but causing a serious loss of combat effectiveness, if this is planned by the other party, it is really terrible.

Ayla ignored the adventurers who were obviously out of strength and could only quarrel with each other for the time being, controlled the steering of the dwarf crossbow, and fired a string of arrows at the arrow tower not far away that seemed to be turning around in the wrong direction.

Rumble——

With the collapse of the arrow tower, the movement here finally attracted the attention of other sections of the city wall, and many snow elves with eyes opened to varying degrees rushed towards the adventurers from both sides of the city wall.

【Ice Storm】

Septim waved his hand casually in a tacit gesture, and two swirling clouds of ice and snow extended along the city wall to both sides. The shield directly slapped the city wall, and then was subdued on the spot by those adventurers who were temporarily unable to fight but had no problem binding people.

——23:59——

Solitude, Harbor Dockyard.

"who are you?"

After finally successfully infiltrating the fleet cargo ship, Einbojorn met two people in the cabin piled with a lot of royal supplies. The young woman was dressed in brown leather armor and had two swords on her waist. She looked heroic, but she always felt a little The look of the hotel receptionist, and the other elderly man in a robe... Maybe he has combat power, but a library or research room may be more suitable for him.

"We are the shields of light, the blades of darkness, the guardians of the Septim Empire - Blade Warrior!" the woman said with pride.

"Hmph, okay." Ein Bjorn looked at the "Sharp-Eyed Eagle" flag hanging in the cabin, then at the woman, and exited the cabin backwards before the other party became angry.

Now that the emperor was prepared, he had no choice but to give up this plan, and went to discuss the next plan with Astrid. The werewolf cat left the cargo ship quickly.

But... wasn't the Blade Warrior disbanded by the emperor's order? Even if there are remaining members, it shouldn't be protecting him.
