Chapter 159 Dragonborn (The Elder Scrolls OL is not fun at all)

When Duan Muhuai and the guards arrived at the sentry tower, it was too late.

I saw that the entire sentry tower had been burned to pieces, there were gravel and wreckage everywhere, and there were still raging flames burning on the ground.

"Damn, it seems we are late!!"

Seeing this scene, the captain of the guards bit his lip, his face pale. And at this moment, a guard poked his head out from the ruins of the sentry tower and waved at them.

"Hey, come here! That dragon is still around!"

"Are you the only one alive?"

Seeing that there were survivors, the captain of the guard was also relieved, and hurried forward to ask, while the guard nodded.

"That's right, the others were caught by that dragon while they were trying to escape... oh shit!"

However, before he finished speaking, the guard's expression changed drastically, and he stared at the sky with wide eyes in surprise.

"It's coming again!!"

Accompanied by the shouts of the guards, everyone looked up and saw a giant dragon flapping its wings and flying across the sky, roaring like thunder.

Seeing this scene, the guard captain hurriedly raised his bow and arrow.

"Everyone pay attention to concealment! Prepare bows and arrows, attack!!"

Although they were afraid of the giant dragon in front of them, the soldiers quickly hid themselves and attacked the dragon. They bent their bows and set up arrows, and shot arrows at the giant dragon, but these arrows were completely unable to penetrate the dragon's scales—well, this is also a matter of course.

"Mr. Knight, this dragon doesn't seem to be the one we saw before."

Looking at the dragon curiously, An asked, and Duanmu Huai nodded. Indeed, as An said, although this dragon is also very large, it is still smaller than the previous black dragon. And its body is white, not black... Well, although I don't know what's going on, but since it appeared in front of my eyes, there is only one solution.

"Get rid of it!"

Following Duanmuhuai's order, everyone started to act immediately, and An raised his hands high. Soon, a huge magic circle appeared above the dragon's head, and then a purple thunder came crashing down, directly hitting the dragon. And the giant dragon obviously couldn't resist the thunder's bombardment, and fell to the ground directly after howling.

At the same time, Duanmuhuai, Lorena and Guleya also rushed towards the dragon in three directions.

"Roar-----!!!"

The giant dragon that fell to the ground was also furious when it saw someone trying to attack itself. It opened its mouth and aimed at the people in front of it, and the flames flickered in its bloody mouth—but before the dragon spewed out the flames, it saw Augis held both hands, and pulled hard. The next moment, the dragon's head was directly pulled aside by the invisible silk thread. At the same time, the flames from its mouth also brushed past the three of them. empty.

But the giant dragon obviously won't stop there. Unlike Regnes' giant dragon, the two front claws and wings of the giant dragon here are fused together, which looks like a huge bat wing. Facing the coming attack at this moment, it hastily raised its two front paws to hug its head, and at the same time spread out the wings connected to the front paws, like a shield blocking everyone's front.

However, this level of defense is completely useless.

"Drink ah ah ah!!!"

Facing the resistance of the dragon, Lorena held up the scripture and swung it down vigorously. I saw that the heavy temple directly hit the dragon's front paw arm, and with a soft "click", the extremely strong dragon's arm suddenly moved in an impossible direction like a piece of bad wood The bending and strong impact even made the giant dragon let out a deafening cry of pain.

However, this is not the end.

At the same time that the dragon's figure was flickering, Guleiya ran past it like a cheetah, and her right hand that turned into a dragon's claw easily cut the dragon's wings, turning it like a piece of paper. Completely torn in half.

The giant dragon, which lost the support of its two front paws, fell heavily on the ground again. When it raised its head, all it saw was a heavy hammer that was shining with thunder.

"boom!!!"

Duanmuhuai's thunderous hammer fell from the sky, directly smashing through the dragon's skull, completely smashing its head in half from the middle. It was as if a stone had been split apart by a hammer, and blood and flesh splattered and brains overflowed. The giant dragon's huge body twitched suddenly, and then there was no response.

The cooperation of Duanmuhuai and others can be said to be seamless, from the appearance of the giant dragon to the time it was killed, it didn't even take a minute. Seeing this scene, the guards at the rear all widened their eyes in surprise, unable to believe what they saw. They originally thought that they would have a hard fight with this terrifying giant dragon, but they didn't expect that this giant dragon would be defeated so easily in front of these adventurers? !

"Sure enough, the strength of this dragon is very weak."

Looking at the corpse of the giant dragon in front of him, Duanmu Huai also nodded, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Compared with the black giant dragon that appeared in Helgen before, this giant dragon is not that powerful, and it does not display a dragon roar with mysterious and strange power. At least in Duanmu Huai's view, this is just a very Just an ordinary dragon.

However, just when everyone was going to get close to the dragon's body to see what happened, suddenly, a wonderful scene happened.

The corpse of the giant dragon lying on the ground suddenly burst into flames. Immediately afterwards, countless rays of light flew out of the burning corpse of the giant dragon, as if attracted by a magnet, and flew towards Guleya. In the blink of an eye, the Guleya shrouded it.

"Greya!"

Seeing this scene, An suddenly screamed, and hurried all the way to Guleya's side, looking at her uneasily.

"Are you OK?"

However, in the face of Ann's inquiry, Guleya did not answer immediately. On the contrary, she closed her eyes, as if she was immersed in some kind of aftertaste. After a while, she opened her eyes again and looked at Ann with a smile.

"Don't worry Ann, I'm fine."

"But, that dragon...you..."

Ann turned her head and looked at the corpse of the giant dragon—at this moment, the giant dragon was completely left with only a skeleton, and no one knew what happened to the dragon just now.

However, what Guleya said next surprised everyone.

"I... seem to have learned how to roar."

"Why?"

Hearing Guleya's words, everyone was taken aback and looked at her in surprise. And Guleya also turned around, looking at a huge rock not far away——that was originally a part of the sentry tower, but now it is lying in the grass, just a huge rock. Facing the stone, Guleiya took a deep breath, and then...

"———————————!"

With a roar, everyone saw a powerful air wave emerging from Guleya's body, directly hitting the stone and knocking it away.

"Why??!!"

Seeing this, everyone was shocked. Although it is not the same, it is indeed very similar to the dragon roar of the black dragon they met in Helgen before.

But...how did Guleya learn it all of a sudden?

Just when the monk Zhang Er was puzzled, he saw a guard walking over. He looked at Gu Leya in surprise, unable to hide his inner surprise.

"I can't believe it! You are...Dragonborn..."

"Huh? Me? Dragonborn?"

Hearing the guard's words, Gu Leya was also taken aback. Facing Guleya, the guard nodded vigorously.

"I'm afraid you don't know that in the oldest legend, when there are still dragons in the sky, the dragonborn will kill them and take their abilities. Didn't you do that? Absorb the power of the dragon? "

"This... I..."

Facing the guard's questioning, Guleya didn't know what to say for a while. She was indeed a hybrid of dragon and human. It was not unreasonable to say that she was born of a dragon, but killing a dragon could gain its power? Gu Leya never knew that she still had this ability!

"You couldn't roar before, now you can, can't you? That means you're Dragonborn."

"That's right!"

At this moment, the other guards beside him also spoke excitedly.

"My grandfather once told me stories about dragonborn! Those people were born with dragon blood, just like the ancient Tiber Septim! According to legend, dragonborn can kill dragons and take their power, You must be Dragonborn!"

Having said this, the guards turned their attention to the captain of the guard.

"What do you say? Iriles?"

"snort."

Facing the guards, the guard captain looked very indifferent.

"You'd better not make irresponsible remarks about things you don't know. This dragon is dead. This is the only thing we can be sure of. That is to say, the dragon can be killed."

Speaking of this, Iriles first glanced at Guleya, and then turned his gaze to Duanmu Huai.

"I don't know much about Dragonborn, but I'm glad to have you fighting with us. I'll clean up the mess here, and you'd better get back to Whiterun at once, Lord Balgruuf will want to know what happened here What's the matter?"

"OK."

Duanmu Huai put away her weapon, and then looked at Gu Leya, who was also shocked at the moment. Apparently, Gu Leya never seemed to have thought that she would have such a bloodline and strength—well, she didn't know It is also a matter of course, according to these guards, dragonborn need to kill dragons to gain their power...but...

"It's strange. When we went to eliminate Fafna before, we also killed many dragons, but why didn't Guleya absorb their power at that time?"

Ann obviously thought of this question too.

"Maybe it's because of the different types?"

Duanmuhuai still remembered that the dragons on Regnes and Fafena were all four-legged dragons, while the dragons here had bat-like front paws fused with wings, probably Is there a difference because of the different types?

"In short, let's go back and talk."

On the way back to Snowman City, Gu Leya didn't say a word, after all, this was indeed a considerable shock to her. Although they wanted to comfort Guleya, the crowd didn't know what to say. In this way, they came to Longxiao Palace and reported to Lord Balgruf about the dragon's attack on the sentry tower and the death of the dragon.

After listening to Duanmuhuai's report, Lord Balgruf nodded in satisfaction.

"Very well, it seems that what the letter said is true, you actually have the ability to repel and kill giant dragons, it's unimaginable..."

"It's just that this dragon is too weak."

Duanmuhuai shook his head.

"The dragon that attacked Helgen is much stronger than this dragon, and apart from being able to fly and breathe fire, this dragon has nothing particularly powerful.

"There's nothing particularly powerful about it... Hahaha, for mere mortals like us, just being able to fly and breathe fire is already terrifying. I can't imagine that the kind of dragon you mentioned would be What's it like?"

Lord Balgruuf smiled wryly and shook his head, then he looked at Guleya.

"So... she is a dragonborn?"

"That's what the guards said, and we're not really sure."

Duanmu Huai spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders.

"So, I would like to ask you something about Dragonborn..."

"There's someone better to talk to you about than me."

Having said this, Lord Balgruuf paused.

"Did you hear Greybeard's call just now?"

"We did hear a loud bang just now."

Duanmu Huai didn't hide it either, shortly after they stepped into the gate of Xueman City, they heard a huge roar erupting in the sky, and even the ground began to tremble under the roar. At that time, everyone was really startled, thinking it was the dragon attacking again.

"That is the call of Greybeard, the master of the way of the dragon's roar. They are isolated from the world and live at the highest point of the throat of the world."

"They can use Dragon Roar, so does that mean that those people are also Dragonborn?"

"I don't know that."

Lord Balgruf shook his head in response to Duanmuhuai's question.

"But if that lady is really a dragonborn, they will teach her how to use the talent of being a dragonborn. The dragon roar before is the call of Greybeard. They are calling you to go to the peak of Hogarth... …I really didn’t expect that since Tiber Septim was summoned, this kind of thing hasn’t happened for hundreds of years.”

Speaking of this, Lord Balgruf looked at Guleya.

"You'd better leave for the peak of Hrothgar as soon as possible. No one can refuse the summoning of Greybeard. This is a great honor. But today, you should take a good rest. I will prepare the best guest room for you. Please don't You are welcome, this is the reward that the dragon-slaying hero deserves."

Lord Balgruf also kept his word. He provided Duanmuhuai and his party with the best room, as well as Xueman's unique food, and of course, a reward was also indispensable. And everyone was exhausted after a tiring day, and soon went to the guest room to rest.

The next day, when Duanmu Huai got up, the others were already waiting for him outside.

"Really, Mr. Knight, you are too slow."

"Sorry sorry."

Facing An's complaint, Duanmuhuai chuckled, and then looked at Guleya——Gureya's spirit was still not very good at the moment. Judging by her appearance, it seemed that she didn't sleep well last night.

"Greya, have you decided?"

"I... I don't know."

Regarding Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Gu Leya seemed to hesitate a little, but at this moment, An suddenly thought of something and clapped her hands suddenly.

"By the way, Mr. Knight, I just happen to have a proposal."

"What proposal?"

"I suggest, how about we split up?"

"Break up?"

"That's right."

Ann nodded.

"I discussed it with Lorena. This place is so big, if we investigate together, it will waste a lot of time, so I think we'd better split up."

"Since you say that, obviously you have a goal?"

"Of course, I plan to visit the Mage Academy in Winterhold, and Lorena will go to other cities to investigate the situation about the belief in the Nine Holy Spirits."

"Are you two going alone?"

"Of course not...!"

While speaking, Ann pulled Augis back with a smile.

"It's too dangerous to be alone, so I decided that it's best to team up in two or two groups. I'm in a team with Miss Augis, and Miss Lorena is in a team with Audrey. Mr. Knight, you can stay with Guleiya. How about it?"

…………Is this the idea you made.

Seeing An winking at herself desperately, Duanmu Huai also understood what she meant. It was obvious that An was also aware of his friend's situation, so he made this suggestion on purpose.

Well, it's a good suggestion, too.

Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai nodded.

"Okay, then it's settled."
