"Okay, sir." Khajiit merchant Rezad could naturally understand Wu Chen's cautious answer. After all, the character has not yet been written, so it is too early to talk about an expedition now. Wait until the fleet is completed, and then consider when to go on an expedition.

It's not too late. Just imagine that the entire continent of Tamriel was torn apart by the Annihilation Storm, how could the Thalmor elves in Summerset Island survive alone?

With his abundant financial resources, does Lord Ximu not have the slightest ambition to become the High King of Skyrim or even the Human Emperor of Tamriel?

I don't believe it.

The Lord's so-called "little lord of Ximu under the leadership of Xueman" cannot stand up to scrutiny at all.

Although Tianji is only one of the eight provinces of the empire, the vast cold land of thousands of miles is divided into nine major lords and countless smaller lords to jointly govern. However, these lords have a high degree of autonomy in land reclamation, mining, smelting, trade, and commerce.

The power that awaits a dragon is only limited to casting his own image on a gold coin. Lords and lords can even form armies freely. The soldiers in the army are neither loyal to the Emperor of Tamriel nor to the High King of Skyrim.

Only loyal to the lord himself. Once the lord rebels, it is equivalent to a total rebellion in the territory. What's more, Lord Ximu is also a war lord recognized by the empire. He has the rank of imperial captain and the corresponding army establishment. He also has the ability to guard the border, suppress bandits, and quell chaos on behalf of the empire.

, and even the special military power to kill first and then report later. This is a privilege that Lord Xueman, who has always adhered to neutrality, does not have.

Speaking of which, the actual area under the jurisdiction of each lord is limited to the city where they live, as well as important resources such as farmland, mines and mills around the city, and strategic points that need to be defended. There are too many "three noes" between cities.

"areas where monsters, robbers, cults, evil dragons, etc., countless monsters, ghosts, snakes, etc. are entrenched in these dark areas, posing a great threat to the safety of the city.

However, no lord wants to completely eradicate these "cancers of civilization" and "hidden dangers of rule". Suppressing bandits is like putting out wildfires. If there is a fire, put it out. If there is no fire, there is no need to pay too much attention.

In fact, everyone knows that the fundamental solution is to first send troops to garrison, and then move the residents in the city to cultivate and settle, and completely bring those remote areas under the rule of civilization. But this move will undoubtedly require a large amount of financial, material and human resources.

, there is no return even for a long time. Therefore, no lord is willing to use limited tax revenue for unrewarded payment. But it is undeniable that it is precisely because of the inaction of the lords that these things have grown from remote places and become more and more common.

The closer you get to the hidden dangers of civilization, the territory's strength is constantly being consumed.

Of course, the erosion and control of cities by local forces is another "cancer of civilization and a hidden danger of rule." For example, in Markarth City and Rift Valley City, local forces almost completely control the city, and even the power of the local lords

They have all been seriously threatened and have even been secretly dismissed.

Under such circumstances, one can imagine how weak the empire's control over the entire province of Skyrim is. After the Stormcloak rebellion, the entire eastern Skyrim fell into despair and fell overnight. Facts have proved that many lords took the initiative to turn against

The Stormcloak side. This is not only related to the "Platinum Agreement" that humiliated the country, but also to the empire's always laissez-faire rule over Skyrim.

Even those lords who have not turned to the Stormcloaks cannot be said to be completely devoted to the Empire. For example, Wu Chen's Snowrun lord "The Strong" Balgrove is a typical neutral faction.

However, those with a discerning eye clearly discovered that Wu Chen's Ximu Territory was the only exception in the chaotic sky.

Thanks to the entire gray rock gold mountain harvested from the lord's plane journey. Under the vigorous management of the housekeeper, Ximu Town not only underwent great changes in a very short period of time. Even the three hundred miles of remote countryside also changed its appearance.

.The coal camp is comparable to a town, the Feitian Outpost guarding the fortress, the hunting manor hidden in the dense forest, the self-sufficient river bend fishery, the White River Farm, the Azaruden city where the plane gray people are housed, and the towering

At the Ring Mage Academy at the top of Coldfall, the lord even has his own Dragon Breaking Law.

what does that mean?

It means that the lord's ambition goes far beyond 300 miles.

There are ten directions in the world. After benefiting one party, will your lord bring benefits to the remaining nine directions?

In the mind of the well-traveled and well-informed Khajiit merchant Rhysad, the answer has already been revealed.

Therefore, in addition to the short-term profit of up to 200,000 yuan for a complete dragon bone, it can make a future high king of Skyrim, and even the master of the entire Tamriel continent. The long-term premium of this business is even more for the Khajiit merchants.

A huge benefit that Ressard could not refuse.

After solving the problem of the keel, the New Sword Wind passed through the Annihilation Storm and avoided the evil dragon's attack, and the problem was solved. Search for the ancient tomb of the Snow Prince, bring back the cursed remains, and complete the final bloody sacrifice.

, just around the corner.

Before leaving, in return for the deal, Khajiit merchant Rhysand stopped the lord with a smile: "Sir, how much do you know about the Swordsinger?"

""Take heart, great king. Your people are Redguards, and they can easily follow the path of the sword, if only their hands can once again grasp the hilt and learn once more to quote the maxims of the Book of Rings.

The Redguards can compete with any race in the entire world, no matter how many there are." - Derik Hallin." Wu Chen smiled and recited a famous sentence from an ancient book in the lord's study.

The Swordsingers were once a warrior organization in Yokuda. They pursued the "Path of the Sword" - a philosophy about swordsmanship. The Singers can display amazing swordsmanship skills. In the eyes of some, they are both warriors.

They are mages again. They seek both physical and spiritual strength. The swordsing tradition originated from the continent of Yokuda and was introduced to the coast of Tamriel by the Redguards in the First Era. The swordsingers conquered Hammerfell,

Played a decisive role in creating a new home for the people of Yokuda.

For Ansei. Ansei has the ability to summon a sword from the soul. This sword is called Shehai or the Spirit Sword. An Ansei warrior can pass through pure

With willpower, an ethereal sword composed purely of spiritual power appears out of thin air and takes shape in the hand. This form of path is called "Shehai Shen She Ru (Shehai Shen She Ru, is there any Chinese pinyin?)"

, also called the Way of the Spirit Sword. All sword singers learn to embark on this path through high-intensity training and meditation, but not every swordsman can successfully be promoted to a

Ansai. Those who successfully follow the path of Ansai are said to have transcended mortals. They possess a strong devotion to the gods of war, a strong sense of piety, concentration and combat skills that are unmatched by others.

The great Ansai said: One man and one sword can defeat a country.

"Everything is as you know, my lord." Khajiit merchant Resald smiled slyly: "I heard that you are recruiting Mrs. Gisei Siying. Then you will definitely not refuse the descendants of Meikaela Reki.

.”

"What?" Even the lord was shocked: "Are you sure he is the descendant of the female sword master?"

"Yes, sir." As he spoke, the Khajiit merchant Rezad solemnly handed a thick ancient book to Wu Chen:
