Chapter 870 1.869 Although their lives were short and meaningless, they were fascinating
"Has anyone ever told you that you have an unrivaled countenance? In this celestial sedan chair we call the Far Tomb, most (human souls) have the most modest halo. But you! I know many buyers , they will pay top dollar for a (sparkling) soul like yours. So, shall we trade?"
"I'm not interested in trading souls, ma'am." The lord obviously wouldn't trade souls with the devil.No matter how attractive the witch in front of her is.
"Then please tell me, dear guest, what brought you to Mrs. Miaoxiang?" The charming Mrs. Miaoxiang used the frivolous tone that the proprietress used to, staring into the clear eyes of the lord.
"Look, I'm with Ritual Master Valhiren, she said that you know everything that happened here and all the secrets behind it." What the lord wants to trade is the secret of the far tomb.
"Ah..." Taking a deep look at the master of ceremonies sitting on the other side of the lord, Mrs. Miaoxiang smiled more and more attentively: "Everything Valhiren told you is true. But I hate bragging. However, she is also An unusual mortal, isn't she? Our 'darling of the alley', witty and clever. Perhaps she asked you to come so as not to add to her 'bill' at House of Whims. But rest assured, as a new customer, you Your first transaction is free."
"Okay, ma'am. Please tell me how much you know about the bearer." The lord also got straight to the point.
"Ah, there are two eternal topics in the mouths of many far-off graves. The fresh goods at the crossroads, and those old-fashioned sedan chairmen. So your 'interesting question'. Alas, I have no answer. But you And it's not the only 'newcomer' in our fair city who seeks this kind of knowledge, is it?" Mrs. Miao Xiang's passage sounds like a polite refusal, but it is actually a bargaining technique.
"You're absolutely right." The lord knows that if he wants to extract useful information from the well-rounded, well-dressed tavern proprietress, it's always an easy way to do what he likes: "So, ma'am, how can I become your tavern proprietress?" 'Regular customer'?"
"Whoa, you want more? I've just given you a lot of stuff as part of the free samples." Mrs. Wonderful continued on the topic of bargaining.
"So, how do you trade in your 'House of Imagination'?" The lord immediately switched to the adventure routine of the brave.
"As the name suggests, I trade capricious eccentricities, trading on impulsive desires. My House of Whimsy (House of Whimsy) brings indulgent delights from forgotten places. And of course 'reliable information'. And food , beverages, and conveniences to satisfy every appetite."
"Then, for the first transaction tonight, why is this place called Celestial Sedan?" Saying this, the lord gently placed a Dems magic stone the size of a pigeon egg on the bar.
"Dear guest, don't you know when you come here? How refreshing!" From the enthusiasm sprayed out from the warm panting of the proprietress, one can clearly know the value of this pigeon egg-sized Dems magic stone: " Like all otherworldly vehicles, the Far Tomb anthropomorphizes the existence of the Liminal Bridge. After all, it (the Far Tomb) was indeed originally a strange 'nomadic kingdom'. Of course , and that's part of the city's charm."
"Specifically?" The lord needs to know more details.
"Specifically, this means that if you want to travel through Oblivion's myriad 'corridors', there's no better place to start than the mythical Far Tomb. In addition to our famous teleportation plaza, there are prominent portals scattered throughout the realm. Like it's called 'Crossroads.' Plus, we don't have daemons."
"Is this important?" Asking three questions per transaction is an old rule in all hotels.
"Without the reality of daedrics making laws and manipulating far tombs, we can shape the city as we choose. This gives us a noble freedom. Also, no daedric means less chaos and violence in the streets, despite hooligans And some cultists. But those are trivial."
"When I came here, I couldn't help noticing the huge skeletons outside the city. Who are they?" With that said, the lord put down the second pigeon egg magic stone.Started a new round of transactions.
"Aren't they beautiful? Ah, one of our best signs. No one knows for sure who or what they are, but legend has it that they once carried the city from one realm to another. So the Far Tombs were again Alluding to the legendary 'big sedan chair'. But is this legend true? Well, at least those skeletons are real enough." This is also an ambiguous and watertight answer.As the saying goes among players: "Listening to what you have to say is like listening to what you have to say." It's all useless nonsense.
"What kind of Daedra are you, ma'am?" The lord immediately asked a second expensive question.
"Personal enquiries? That will cost extra, my dear, guest." First, she cast a very seductive wink at the lord, and Mrs. Miaoxiang then cleared her throat and said in a low and sexy voice : "I am a Mazken (succubus), what mortals commonly call a dark seducer. Unlike many of my sisters, I use my charms to confuse and seduce guests, (in order to) gain knowledge and thereby Profit. I'm not at all interested in violence..."
After finishing a long section of self-introduction, Mrs. Miao Xiang cleverly changed the subject: "I'm surprised that our 'alley darling' didn't mention this to you."That is to say, this question is not for me at all.
"Why do you call Master Valhillen the Beloved of the Alley?" This was the third extravagant question of the round.
What the lord has done has aroused enough surprise for Mrs. Miao Xiang.It's very simple, how extravagant and wasteful it is to ask two completely irrelevant identity questions in succession at a high cost.
"The Beloved of the Lane, the Fool of the Tomb, the Woman in the Cape...She spared no effort to help those mortals who were 'washed ashore'. She didn't ask for anything in return. Too bad I don't know much about her past." Mrs. Wonder is just right He turned his attention to the lord again: "I must admit that I am very impressed with you, dear guest. The first time I saw you, I felt that you have something special. There are intoxicating things hidden. I also I must say to you, I love my company with mortals. Their lives, short and meaningless as they are, are fascinating."
This is a new understanding of the identity of the lord.It is also a signal to start the third round of real trading.
"'The lords of the Annihilation Realm accused Mered-Nanda of trespassing, and told her to return to Orbis, affirming that all the (Annihilation) Realms that existed were theirs. But Mered-Nanda formed the Magnus' rays were bent by a large dragging lens. The rays carved out a new realm in annihilation, which Merede-Nanda gleefully declared her own.'" reciting Speaking of the passage recorded in "Mei Ruide-Nanda's Notes", the lord gently put down the third pigeon egg magic stone:
"I heard that the fixed portal in the far tomb can lead to the death place of Mehrunes Dagon. It is the realm of the demon god who was born 'in the intestines of Raig'."
"Ah... dear guest. You are born in quest of 'Darkness and Destruction', Master of Destruction, Transformation, Power and Ambition; Known as the Black Lord, Ambition Demon, Calamity and Destruction, Razor Master, Lord of Destruction , the tyrant of flames, the father of the cataclysm, the mother of Mehrunes Dagon." Complicated emotions flashed in Mrs. Miaoxiang's eyes.It seems to be a very advanced inner one-man show (performance).Or the most authentic inner feedback.
"The person I'm looking for is you, ma'am." The lord asked directly.
