His face was dismal.

Acorns are of no avail, and the changes are still going on.

Xuerui's whole body turned red and bloody, her skin cracked and melted, revealing damaged muscles and pale bones.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Amidst the shrill screams, the pendant burst into endless pale flames and engulfed the two of them, shaking the sky and the earth.

The witcher's head seemed to explode.

Is the end coming?

Everything around is in turmoil.

His heart was clenched tightly, and he couldn't breathe.

He was like standing between cliffs, surrounded by flowing water.

The only thing he could do was hold the girl tightly in his arms, shrinking his body.Not daring to move, not even to look down.

Below is the abyss, and the bitter wind keeps blowing.

It was as if thousands of knives were picking at his flesh and bones, and he was suffering like death.

The only thing he could do was hug the person in his arms tightly.

I don't know how long it took, the pain gradually disappeared, and a wild laughter sounded in his ears.

"Oh ha ha!"

……

"Who are you! What did you do to her?"

"My name is Sangjin, and I just follow her idea to restore her to her original appearance."

"But have you forgotten, you are also responsible for this!"

"Insufficient people, this is greed! If she is content with the status quo, then everything here will continue, as long as my strength is still there!"

"But you triggered the greed in her heart and let her destroy all of this with her own hands."

"It's worthy of winning my championship. Now, you can get the reward of the competition, and she belongs to you!"

"Well--"

The endless white light in front of his eyes gradually faded, and the bloody witcher opened his eyes.

Even after using the activation, the life and magic power still dropped below [-]%.

here is?

in ruins.

Weeds are overgrown, houses are scorched black, and there are ruins everywhere.

Under the broken door frame and in front of the barren courtyard, dry leg bones and skulls can be seen everywhere. The time is too long, and most of the calcium has been lost, becoming slender and gray.

This place has been uninhabited for at least a hundred years and has been completely reduced to ruins.

Is that Hongshan Town, where people live and work in peace and contentment, with simple folk customs, really just an illusion?

He glanced in front of him, and the pendant quietly turned into a long sword with a cross guard, and the blade was covered with exquisite runes.

It was the one seen in the imperial flag mare.

But why, the acorn didn't work?

"Brother Jinyan, I remembered." Xuerui in her arms was dying, she was unrecognizable like Hongshanzhen, she became a severely burnt patient, her horrified face turned towards him, only her left eye was still green, innocence, shining,

She is like a withered flower.

"It turned out that I was already dead that day."

She stretched out her left hand, put it into the warm palm of the witcher, touched his face with her right hand, and said weakly,

"Brother Jinyan, don't cry...don't leave me."

"Ah."

Arms drop.

The girl closed her eyes peacefully and stopped breathing.

Her body suddenly turned into a burst of broken white light, flying into the long sword.

A blurry figure emerged from the sword, and she could vaguely see her golden ponytail bouncing around her shoulders, and her floral skirt fluttering, smiling sweetly at him.

The sword became extremely agile, as if it was given life and soul in an instant.

And there was a name engraved on the hilt of the sword, which Roy couldn't understand when he was at the Chiqi Mare Inn.

But now he knew it was called Xue Rui.

Chapter 13 Demon God, Soul Weapon

The wind blew through the dotted farms on the vast plains, through the cloud tops at the highest point of Snowrun, and poured into the halls and enchanting rooms of Dragon's Landing.

"Sangjin? Why are you interested in this existence?" Farenja looked at the three of them solemnly, and he held the Dragonstone in his palm and rubbed it.

"We seemed to meet the incarnation of that guy when we were at the Flag Mare Inn..." Awell swallowed his saliva, and said with a little difficulty, "He disguised himself as a man named Sam Gurnware and intervened in a A drinking contest, and take the winner, Goldeneye."

"We don't know what Sanjien did to Golden Eye, he has been a little bit off for the past two days."

The mage suddenly turned his eyes to Roy. He seemed to have suffered some kind of heavy blow, his face was dull, and his originally bright and energetic pupils became dull.

In addition, a sword hilt protruded from behind his shoulder, and the hilt was inlaid with scarlet gems. The mage remembered very clearly that the other party did not carry this sword last time.

"I graduated from Winterhold and studied spells and various legends and anecdotes. I happened to have heard of Sanjin's famous name." The mage continued,

"As you can see, our world is not limited to humans, monsters, and giant dragons... There are also other weirder, more powerful existences beyond imagination."

"Are you referring to the Nine Holy Spirits? Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time, Dibella, the God of Beauty and Freedom, Akai, the God of Reincarnation...our belief is Talos." Frien straightened his neckline, With a hint of reverence on his face, "There are temples and altars of the Holy Spirit set up all over the province of Skyrim, and the altars can give believers beneficial states, and their believers also have all kinds of incredible abilities. This undoubtedly shows that the Holy Spirit is real. of."

"Obviously, Sanjin doesn't belong to the Holy Spirit..." the mage said, "but they have some similarities, and they can all be called gods."

"Compared to the Holy Spirit, their domains and clergy sound less upright, and some even make people feel evil and weird... such as deceit and conspiracy, plague, madness, oath and curse... and the indulgence, pleasure, and greed of representatives of...Sangjin."

"They are called demon gods, and as far as I know, there are sixteen of them." Farenka said with deep decree lines on his cheeks, "whether saints or demons... since they are named gods, they are not us." A being that these mortals can provoke."

"Especially the demon gods, the Holy Spirit seldom appears in front of the world, but the demon gods are different. They live in different areas of annihilation, but they can appear in other worlds in the form of incarnations...Tamriel, and even Other continents are all over their footprints, but in places other than annihilation, their power will be suppressed."

"Wait, what do you mean, a demon god ran into the Imperial Banner Mare Inn?" The dragonborn's face turned pale, "We're going to compete in wine with us? Were you defeated by Golden Eye?"

"Maybe it's just having fun. The gods are not as far away as most people think, like Sangjin, also known as the **** of blood, pleasure, and indulgence. To find some fun in the eternal and boring life, in layman's terms, is to play in the world of mortals." Farenja paused, "Some people believe in it, and some places have its altars."

"Its appearance means both danger and opportunity, and it has left many legends in Tamriel - it will randomly select some 'lucky ones', and then let them accept a series of tests to please itself, After passing the level, you can get special and valuable rewards, weapons and armor, or something else."

"What if it doesn't pass?" Fryn asked.

"It's not clear, there is no relevant data record." Farenja sighed, looking Roy up and down, "Since the golden eye has returned safely, it is a good thing... Are you interested in sharing your experience, you What happened in Sanjin's field?"

"Is the weapon behind you its reward?"

"One of the sixteen demon gods, the indulgent demon god Sangjin?"

Can the gods of this world be realized in reality?

In the world of demon hunters, the gods have been reclusive for a long time.

Roy took a deep breath, and his lifeless pupils finally regained some vivid expression, "Such a supernatural existence, just for fun, put me in that kind of place? Let me burst a beautiful bubble with my own hands?"

Inexplicably, he thought of a similar existence in another world-Master Mirror.

He couldn't tell now whether that fantastic and beautiful girl and Hongshan Town really existed?

No, the ruins he witnessed must be the ruins of Hongshan Town.

And Xue Rui was right behind him.

But what happened, the townspeople scolded the girl and killed her mother, is it the real history, or is it a tortured drama concocted by Sangjin?

If everything is true, wouldn't he personally end Xue Rui's peaceful life?

……

The demon hunter glanced at the three people who were looking forward to it, and after repeated entanglements, he recounted all the experiences through Awel's mouth.

In the enchanting room, under the bright lights, the expressions of several audience members became very exciting.

Amazement, envy, disbelief, and even a sigh.

"So, Xuerui died in that fire a long time ago? But Sanjen used its divine power to save her and build her ideal country?" Frien asked, "What's the point of it doing this?" Purpose?"

"Maybe it's just an experiment. Humans are to demon gods, just like ants are to humans." Farenka's eyes flashed a trace of sadness, "But no matter what, it really helped Xuerui. It Rescue Xuerui and raise her in captivity, build a perfect 'house' for her, treat her like a bird in a cage for observation, just come and take a look occasionally. It happened that Golden Eye was put into this game by Sangjin, And Red Hill Town was treated as a playground by it.”

"But what happened to those Red Mountain townspeople?" Awell asked,

"If you want me to say that they have been cleaned up by Sanjien long ago." Fryen said in a deep voice, "But that is what they deserved. They abused an innocent girl so cruelly. What right do they have to ask others to punish them?" Mercy, let alone a demon god."

"It's just a pity for Xuerui, she is as pure, kind, and beautiful as a princess in a fairy tale world." Awell shook his head and said, his eyes touched, as if thinking of someone, "Our world can only hurt her. "

"Golden Eye, I can probably understand how you feel." Frien patted Roy on the shoulder and comforted him, "But I don't think you need to blame yourself, you just helped her realize her wish."

"She has long been tired of the stereotyped Hongshan Town, the virtual ideal world. Otherwise... her first wish would not let go of the butterfly in the cage. It is obvious that her heart has always longed for change."

"And you released her, understand."

"Besides, you also fulfilled your promise." The dragonborn's brown eyes swept behind the demon hunter, "You have always brought her by your side, and you have not abandoned her."

……

Roy glanced at Frien with a complicated expression. He didn't expect this rough and simple guy to have such delicate emotions.

His arm crossed his shoulders, grasped the hilt of the sword, pulled out the exquisite long sword, and held it in front of several people.

Xue Rui

……

"A powerful and unique enchantment..." Farenga praised, "The chief enchanter of Cyrodiil can't do it so perfectly."

"Why did Xuerui turn into this sword in the end? How did the mortal body turn into steel?" Awell asked in surprise, "What is the principle?"

"I can only think of one possibility..." Farenja said, "Each enchanted weapon consumes soul energy, and this sword is charged by Xue Rui's soul."

"Do you know what this means? Every time you swing the long sword, that girl's soul will be consumed." Farenja looked at the demon hunter,

"Golden Eye, do you want to have a powerful weapon, or do you want to treat it as a collection that can only be viewed but not used, so that Xue Rui's soul can be preserved?"

There was a long silence in the enchanting room.

Roy stared at the runes on the blade.

The total time he spent with Xue Rui was so short, it would be unrealistic to say that he fell in love with her at first sight, not even love.

But he had to admit that in the never-setting sunset of Hongshan Town, this girl brought him unspeakable warmth and shock.

She is like a spotless and exquisite work of art.

A little sister who can't help being cared for and loved.

"If I destroy this sword..." Roy took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Then can Xue Rui's soul be free, and where will it go?"

Awell conveyed it on his behalf.

Farenja thought for a while,

"The Nords must die heroically on the battlefield before their souls can go to Songard..."
