Chapter 531: Pushing Too Hard......

As the saying goes, where there is light, there is darkness, and the cities of Skyrim have this evil hidden under the glossy exterior. But there are still a handful of near-pervasive situations like Rift Valley, and Skyrim is the most dangerous in the city, and it may be a good fit for those who are good at sneaking in the shadows. But An Yizhi is good at getting angry when he disagrees, even if he is a little clever, he doesn't feel that he is the opponent of those old fritters who play with conspiracy.

This place in Rift Valley City should be visited as little as possible in the future.

The money has been spent, and a few side quests have been activated, so it's time to go to the main quest.

An Yizhi chose to explore the nearby ruins and scavenge to see if there were any good things.

Coming out of the dim alley, crossing the main road, and going to Bee & Hook to pack a Platinum Tower, it tastes good. He then left Rift City and rode the Phantom Pony towards his destination, the owner of the Vellum......

Speaking of who gave the name, the name of the owner of the leather paper is simply unclear.

From Rift Valley City, turn south through the snow farm, cross a col, and finally climb up the mountain road to reach the owner of the leather paper.

Judging from the map, the owner of the leather paper is indeed not far from Rift Valley, which is on the top of a mountain next to Rift City.

Generally speaking, the ruins so close to the city have long been looted by generations of adventurers, and An Yizhi ran over at this time to probably pick up some broken copper and iron that others don't want.

And the owner of the leather paper is always marked as 'extremely dangerous' on the map. This is because none of the adventurers who ran away to the owner of the leather paper to take risks came back alive!

There are a lot of rumors about the owner of the leather paper in Rift Valley, and the haunted and the like are simply pediatric, and there are rumors that there are ghoul lords roaming around.

But An Yizhi is not too worried about this, the ghoul lord is only more than 30 levels, and he has not killed it, at that time, An Yizhi still used the short sword Charizard Kulo, and now the shotgun has been replaced by a two-faced staff, and the level is 10 levels higher than the last time he came to Skyrim, just a ghoul lord, small meaning.

He wasn't completely careless, because maybe this copy had the original game's 'the higher the player's level, the higher the monster'. If you underestimate it too much, you will still suffer.

Now An Yizhi has the ability to single-handedly take on any monster below level 50, even in the face of a level 50 boss, he is confident that he can't escape, which is why he chose the famous ruins of the owner of the leather paper to explore.

Of course, it's also because it's close enough to Rift City.

There were many merchants on the official road who were preparing to leave or go to Rift Valley City, and they drove horse-drawn carts and ox-carts to transport a large number of goods from Morrowind Province.

Morrowind is the home of the Dark Elves, but the merchants are not all Dark Elves, but more Half-Dragons who work as coolies.

As the only province that retains slavery, the Dark Elves often go to the Black Marsh Province to the south to capture the Half-Dragons as slaves, and the two races are clearly more fierce than the conflict between the Imperials and the Nords.

Now that there is no big trouble, it is purely because the remnants of the empire are still there, and I feel that after the sky is chaotic, Morrowind and Kuronuma may also announce their departure from the empire one after another.

This is not impossible, because before the chaos in Skyrim, the Falling Hammer Province in the west of Skyrim has been completely independent because of the relationship of the Platinum Agreement, and when Skyrim completes its independence, once the contradictions in the other provinces break out, they will naturally be revealed, and it will look good at that time, and the huge empire will be torn apart.

But that's all a long time later, and Ann is currently sitting on the Phantom Pony flipping through the book that was given for the potion.

It's not a skill, it's just a book about the history of Rift Valley.

As Ann knew about it, Rift City had gone through a rebellion that burned the entire city, and that was fifty years ago, when the people of Rift Valley rebuilt on the ruins...... A ruin.

Unless a truly capable and courageous leader is ushered in to sweep away the dirt in Rift City, Rift City will continue to fall into ruins.

This is obviously not something that the current lord can do, speaking of which, I forgot what the lord's name was, after all, in Rift City, it doesn't matter if you don't know the lord's name, but if you don't know Ma Wen Black Thorn, then you will die.

Speaking of the Black Thorn family, a group of mercenaries in black steel armor can also be seen walking around on the pipes.

They are the thugs raised by the Black Thorns, the security guards, whatever you call them, in short, they are such a group of people.

These people call themselves the Blackthorn Mercenaries, but in fact they are still a group of bandits in essence, and they can be regarded as bandits with an official background.

At the moment, they are inspecting the goods as they walk along the official road, although it feels more like fishing for oil and water.

The merchants have long been accustomed to this, and there is no need to say much about what kind of place Rift Valley City is, if it weren't for the fact that it was cheaper to come to Rift Valley City than to take the sea route, this group of merchants would not have watched their share of gold coins enter Ma Wen's Black Thorn pocket.

An Yizhi ignored them, and they didn't care about An Yizhi.

Like travelers, they generally don't have much oil and water to fish, and if they don't encounter the kind of combat effectiveness that is particularly strong, they will also suffer. Compared with this kind of person, it is more suitable for passing businessmen to make money.

However, it was a little strange when Ann pointed out that there were a few blue-skinned orcs among them.

According to the game's background, the orc gods were completely wiped out 1,500 years ago, resulting in all orcs becoming irrational beasts. This is also the reason why players cannot choose orcs as game characters.

But the orcs of this copy of Skyrim are obviously fine, neither mad nor turned into beasts. Although IQ is generally cheating, at least it is still an intelligent creature.

What is the situation that causes the orcs of the two dungeon worlds to be not the same?

Fundamentally, the orcs went crazy because the orc gods were all dead, and the gods in the sky were 16 demon gods and 9 holy spirits, perhaps because of the different physiques that made the orcs in this copy world not go crazy.

With all this mess in his mind, Ann pointed and continued to walk forward.

From the col, you can see the peaks on the right towering into the clouds, and some traces of man-made objects can be faintly seen in the mist.

It is called the Aphasia Observatory, and it is said that you can see the most beautiful scenery in the entire sky from there, hence the name Aphasia.

It's just that the small talk of the merchants on the road makes An Yizhi a little concerned.

They said that since Alduin's return, some people have seen dragons on the aphasia rock, and many merchants have expressed skepticism about this, while others have felt that they would rather believe it than not, and that it is safe to connect to another road in Rift City, so there are fewer merchants on the pipeline now than in the past.

Having a dragon is a good thing for An Yizhi, because the last time he came to the sky, his main task was to kill a dragon, if the owner of the leather paper did not activate any main quest, eighty percent can go to the aphasia to look at the rock, in case there is really a dragon, maybe the main quest will have eyebrows.

As he walked, there were fewer and fewer businessmen around him.

Now An Yi pointed to the pipe that had completely left, and turned from the path up the mountain.

The ruins of the owner of the leather paper are very dangerous, so there are usually no people who go there specifically. This makes the journey very deserted, and to be honest, it's boring to just rush.

Of course, the system doesn't let players spend time on the road, arranging for some bears, wolves, frost spiders and other little monsters to come out to relieve boredom.

"Skeleton Summoning!"

Six skeletons walked out of the magic circle, and the black bear on the opposite side let out a whimpering sound like it had been stepped on, and quickly fled.

The level gap is too big, An Yizhi estimates that these beasts are only more than 10 levels, and the necromantic aura exuded from the skeleton soldiers alone is enough to scare these beasts.

It's boring......

An Yizhi threw the book he had read into his dimensional pocket, and the Phantom Pony climbed the mountain like walking on the ground, he really couldn't find anything to pass the time.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the situation to change, and as the altitude gradually increased, the mountain road became narrower. As he felt that he was about to reach the top of the mountain, Ann pointed to an abandoned watchtower standing on the side of the road.

The watchtower had been abandoned for a long time, and now it could only be called ruins, and most of the masonry had been scattered and rolled down the mountain, leaving only half of the wreckage.

An Yi dismounted from his horse and walked into the watchtower with the magic seal of the Feather Fall Technique, after all, no one knew how long this thing would last.

The inside of the watchtower was covered with snow, and the part near the outer side of the mountain was afraid to explore, for fear of falling. However, because it is an all-stone structure, the part near the inside is quite sturdy, so at least there is no fucking thing like loose masonry when you step on it.

Walking up the stone staircase, Ann pointed to a corpse buried in snow and ice.

He had been dead for a long time, as if he had been burned to death, and there were still scorch marks on his body, but the climate of the sky allowed this frozen corpse to be preserved for a long time.

Ann made Hela look at him, and learned that he was not undead, so he simply ignored him and walked through the stone bridge on the second floor of the watchtower into the ruins of the owner of the leather paper.

It is said to be a ruin, but in fact, it feels more like a fortress here, at least it used to be.

You can clearly see the huge stone walls and the arrow towers on the walls, the wide squares, and the relatively small entrances.

Such a building is clearly built to the standards of a fortress, reflecting an easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"Hey, you."

An Yizhi, who was looking around and heard someone calling him, turned his head to look over and saw a man in the uniform of the Imperial Army coming out from behind the wall.

"You're an adventurer?"

I didn't expect there to be people here, and they were soldiers of the Imperial Army.

Without waiting for An to answer, he continued:

"I'm an officer in the Empire, and I need your help on a mission."

"What task?"

An Yi pointed vigilantly.

There were few people in this place, and suddenly an Imperial Army officer ran out, and Ann didn't shoot a single shot, and Bigby's strong punch was still on his face, and he said that he had a mission.

"General Tulius wants to find a powerful and historic item to deter the Storm Cloak, and I was ordered to find it, but I can't explore this relic alone, and I need your help."

As reasonable as it sounds, the Nords of Skyrim are very superstitious about tradition, and if the Imperial Army has a Nord artifact in their hands, it will be beneficial to the rule of the Empire.

An Yizhi quietly opened the task list and found that no side quests were activated.

"Are the rebels looking for it too?"

The man was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect An Yizhi to ask this, but quickly replied:

"Yes, the Stormcloak is also looking for, and they need it to justify their actions."

An Yi nodded, and then nodded at the man:

"Spell Penetration: Scorching Ray!"

The dark red rays flew straight out, and the man's reaction was swift, and he turned sideways dangerously. Rays of heat slashed against his leather armor, leaving a scarring that smelled of burnt.

"Stupid, pretending to be an Imperial Army is also a little bit like pretending."

The man was about to ask An how he could see it, but the latter didn't give him a chance to speak, and turned the seal in his right hand:

"Spell Penetration: Stand the Battering Hammer!"

The hammer-shaped stance struck the man directly in the chest, and the powerful force of the impact directly knocked him out.

"Ahh

Ke'an miscalculated the effect of the spell penetration, and the power of the battering ram was too strong, directly knocking the man down the mountain......
