Riding and slashing the stars of empire civilization

Kassandra would tell Milin about the node not because Milin asked about it.

It's because Milin happened to have mastered a node.

Not Attila, not Lapland.

The two of them are just people who have the potential to become nodes.

The node that Milin controls is the "Dragon Flag" from Gray Wind Village.

Cassandra would describe this as interesting because the original Dragon Flag did not have the function of nodes.

The real node is actually the agreement signed between the Empire and the Guardians.

Although the emperor who signed that agreement has long since passed away, Cassandra is still alive and well.

As a party to the agreement, Cassandra herself is also part of this node.

Dragon flags and the like are just symbolic and have no real meaning.

This is also the reason why the temple guards didn't care at all after the empire lost the Dragon Flag.

However, when Kassandra saw the dragon flag that Milin placed in the temple, she was surprised to find that this dragon flag, which had just been made not long ago, was replacing the agreement as the node.

"Huh? How is it possible..."

Alori was stunned when she heard what Milin said, because she also helped Gray Wind when he was making the dragon flag.

It should be said that it provides artistic reference, after all, they are all dragons.

Milin doesn't think the image of dragons in this world is that of a flying dragon, so Alori, the dragonborn, can only be responsible for the styling.

"Wait, is it because..."

Alori seemed to realize that the fake but not inferior dragon flag he helped create might become a factor in the node. Alori snatched the dragon flag from Milin's hand.

Then he pushed Lapland away, who was still sitting on the test platform and watching the excitement, spread out the dragon flag, and began to study it seriously.

After looking around for a while, Alori, whose eyes turned into vertical pupils, raised his head and showed a hint of embarrassment to Milin.

"Has it really become that point?" Milin, who knew that what Malaka said was true when he saw Alori's expression, nodded and said.

"Yes, now this flag has indeed become a symbol of strength." As he spoke, Alori's expression suddenly turned ugly.

"What's wrong?" Milin asked, not knowing that Alori wouldn't show such an expression for no reason.

"I'm a stand-in," Alori replied.

"Huh? What's going on?" Milin asked with some confusion.

"Boss, do you recognize the dragon pattern on this flag?"

Alori, who did not answer this question, first asked Milin in return.

"e, let me take a look..." Milin walked to Alori, lowered his head and carefully looked at the drawings on this authentically certified counterfeit dragon flag.

Seriously, the artistic reference Allori provides isn't exactly polished, and the dragon on the flag looks a bit like a fat snake with wings.

"Looks like an ancient Nordic symbol of dragon culture."

After searching for a while in his memories about The Elder Scrolls, Milin remembered that similar symbols were often seen in the Nord tombs in the game.

"Boss, you remember correctly, this symbol is the flag of the Dragon Worship Cult." Alori nodded in approval of Milin's words.

"Oh, then what?" Milin was more curious about how Alori became Huang Shiro.

As if he knew what Milin was curious about, Alori asked Milin:

"I suspect that the concept of Dragon Worship was armored by the empire of this world because of the dragon flag."

"...Armored?" Milin was stunned for a moment and then showed a reaction expression.

In the Elder Scrolls world, the so-called armor concept is that you can become that legendary being by doing something similar to what a legendary being has done.

To explain simply, it means that if you complete the unification task during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, you can become the First Emperor of the Dragon.

Real armor is relatively more complicated. For example, you may first go to another country as a proton to spend your childhood, and then a businessman who hoards cookies will follow you.

After a series of similar experiences, you can complete the armor and become a new ancestral dragon.

Of course, the most important thing is to achieve unification.

While Milin was recalling what wearing armor meant, Alori continued to point at the dragon flag and said:

"If I'm not wrong, it's probably because the concept of the Dragon Worship Cult coincides with the empire's belief in the dragon flag, so what was originally just a symbolic meaning has real practical significance."

"So the empire with the dragon flag as its symbol turned into the Dragon Cult?" Milin asked Alori.

"That's not the case, unless there are dragons in this world, but after wearing the armor, the dragon flag, which was originally only symbolic, has practical meaning." Alori shook his head and said.

"So it becomes a node?" Milin said, understanding what Alori meant.

"According to what the previous guy said to you, boss, it's not right that this dragon flag is replacing that agreement as the node." Alori said to Milin: "It should be said that this dragon flag replaces the concept of the empire. It became part of the agreement, so it became a node."

It’s not surprising that Cassandra is less knowledgeable than Alori in this regard.

After all, the establishment of this barrier was just her reversal of the plans of those evil beings behind the curtain.

Although the Isu power controlled by Cassandra seems quite fantasy, it still belongs to the materialistic system in terms of classification.

As for the power of the spiritual system, he is a little ignorant even to know what it is, let alone know why it is. It is normal for him to be inferior to Alori.

"Well, is that so..." Milin thought for a while and asked Alori:

"So now that this flag has become a node, can it be used by us?"

"If you just plan to poke a hole, it shouldn't be a big problem, but if you want to break the barrier, one... half a node is not enough. Not to mention finding all the nodes, at least half of them need to be found." Aluo After Li finished speaking, his tone suddenly changed and he smiled at Milin:

"Boss, are you not going to listen to what that Kashen said?"

Kassandra told Milin about this in the hope that Milin could assist in the task of guarding the world and become a true guardian.

But judging from Milin's questions to Alori, it seems that he has no intention of doing so.

After glancing at the laughing Alori, Milin's expression remained unchanged and then asked:

"Then can you find other nodes through half a node?"

Kassandra only talked about three nodes with Milin, the Sky Khan in the grassland, the tower in the Nords' hometown and the Wolf King.

But Milin knows very well that there must be more than these three nodes that can form this Angel of Peace barrier.

Milin still remembers the first time he saw the holy spear in the hand of King Arthur from another world, and he didn’t know which golden finger jumped out to remind him.

"The thing that anchors the world"

It is very possible that the holy spear is also one of the nodes.

Even if not, it must have something to do with the barrier that covers this world.

"It's okay..." Alori, who found that having an extra mouth to speak would add a lot of work to himself, said:

"But boss, do you really plan to break this barrier directly? There are a lot of bad things outside this world."

Being called a devil and making use of sacrifices is not much better.

"Are you afraid of those monsters?" In response to Alori's question, Milin asked with a smile. At the same time, Milin turned his head and glanced at the other people in the room.

Gray Wind remained expressionless, Lapland licked his lips, and Attila also looked like he was going through fire and water.

As for Ella, Ella is working overtime in the office upstairs.

"They should be the ones who are afraid!" Alori chuckled.
