Vol 2 Chapter 548: Snow Man

"So... this is not the first time you have come to Xueman." After hearing Bernardo's explanation, Scoyue smiled heartily-he wanted to show the other party the way and find the man named Mare Banner Tavern, but he didn't expect Bernardo to be familiar with it.
"Yeah... the famous comrades-in-arms group, when they came before, they were just passing by, and they have never seen it in this city." Bernardo smiled, Skoyue is a typical Nordic man, warm and bold, But from the handling of the contradiction just now, it can be seen that he has the shrewdness and the ability to watch words that ordinary Nords do not. Judging from his weapons and posture, the strength is absolutely outstanding. No wonder the comrades in arms group is such a An organization with a glorious history of thousands of years will allow him to replace the work of the well-known "pioneer" in the nine territories.
"Since we know each other, that's a friend." Skoyue picked up a glass of mead, and the two gently touched the glasses-according to the proprietress, this wine is a new product recently in a winery outside the city. It tastes very good. Well, it will usually be sold out at this time. When the two people came to the store, there were only the last two bottles left.
"Multiple friends is also good." Although Scoyue seems to get along well, Bernardo is still a standard mage thinking. Before the other party shows a trustworthy side, he cannot just rely on this superficial phenomenon to determine the actual situation. Despite this little etiquette and superficial skill, he will still do it, "Since I have settled down, I think you should still have things to work on? I won't bother you."
"It's rare, that is, nothing happened in the past few days." Skoyue poured herself another glass of wine. In the dirty glass bottle, only one-third of the golden liquid was left. "Just listened to you Say, you will stay in Xueman for a while?"
"It depends...but it shouldn't be like before." Bernardo curled his lips. It's not the time to go to Javier and ask "Chill".
"Then I suggest you play around here." Skoyue said enthusiastically, "The Arena and Colosseum in the west, and the Noble Garden in the south are all good places... Ivastad seems a bit far away. But it’s the closest place to the Hogarth peak—it has a flavor when viewed from an almost vertical angle."
"I will think about it." He had heard of Xueman's beauty and humanistic feelings a long time ago, but he has never had the opportunity to see him. Now that the other party praises his hometown so enthusiastically, Bernardo is naturally also famous.
"But...in recent days, it's better if you don't go out at night." As he said, Sco's face looked down, "Snowman has been a bit uneasy these days... If you are not a local, maybe Will get in trouble. Although I know those guards are not your opponents, you don't want to take the initiative to cause trouble, do you?"
"Did something happen?" Bernardo asked when Scoyue looked serious.
"Well...Forget it, most people already know it anyway, and you can figure it out sooner or later." It seemed that he hesitated, but he finally said something, "In fact, it is mainly because of two reasons... one It's the situation in Skyrim. You know, the "Storm Cloak" has completed the unification of the Eastern Territory not long ago-they occupy half of Skyrim Province, and they will begin to launch a full counterattack against the Imperial Legion. "
"...I'm sorry." Bernardo shook his head helplessly. War means a lot for politicians and careerists, but for ordinary people, it can only mean disaster and death forever.
"Thank you." Bernardo's attitude obviously made Scoyue feel useful; therefore, he almost didn't hesitate to give a second reason: "The other is... the lord has a young son, some very strange recently. Your deeds are very worried about your behavior."
"In this matter, your two subordinates seem to have mentioned before they leave, and they said that the Long Xiao Palace will be closed early because of this." Bernardo remembered.
"Yeah. He was originally a child with a pretty good personality, but since last month his temper has suddenly become violent. He is very surprised by the unimaginable irony of the servants of the lord...has his personality changed? Said, he has become a little bit stunned, often speaking into the air alone—even once, he even stabbed a servant who didn't dare to take care of him—"
"This shouldn't be a psychological problem." Bernardo frowned. "It's like a curse. Didn't the lord's court wizard help?"
"The Farengar people have been tested, but no problems have been found." Skoyue sighed helplessly. "It is also because of this that the lord gave a series of orders when he was helpless. It is suspected that this curse is the people on the side of the storm cloak secretly doing tricks, the purpose is to let Xueman, who has been neutral in the civil war, join them."
"Even Farenga can't solve it, even can't find anything..." Bernardo smiled bitterly and shook his head-Farenga was an excellent mage who had studied in Winterhold, especially for magic and ancient characters. It is Dragon language and Mozu language that are extremely proficient. Facing this kind of curse-like thing, he shouldn't even find a clue.
If this is the case, there are only two possibilities: one is that the opponent is a master who is much more than Farenga, who can completely hide his traces-this is actually impossible, because Skyrim does not advocate magic Even the archmage of Winterhold Savos Aran could not be so perfect. If it is the ancient council of the dark elves, or the battle mages of the ancestors of the high elves, the ancestors of the high elves, or even the mysterious Saiike cult, they have this level of strength, but how can they help the storm cloak do things?
If it wasn't done by the wizard-then, it's probably another situation that Bernardo had anticipated: a demon was behind it.
If this is the case, it is understandable that Farenja said that I don’t know-he and Lord Balgruuf are just an ordinary employment relationship. If he realizes that the demon is in control of everything behind him, in order to avoid getting into trouble, he is likely to be It’s not because he’s irresponsible, but because everyone who knows how to learn from a mage understands the principle of keeping a distance from the devil—those who are pursuing something that ordinary people cannot understand, and for Except for those who have been neglected to achieve a certain goal.
"No, I can't think of any results." Bernardo saw Sko Yue looking at him, obviously he was thinking that he was thinking, hoping that he could help-so Bernardo also faked The play was really done, and he pretended to say regretfully, "It seems that Lord Lord can only ask for others."
"Sure enough." Sko Yue also sighed deeply. After drinking the last sip of the wine, he tentatively asked: "What you said just now... it seems that you know Farenga?"
