    Compared to the thick puddle on the ground, the oil splashed on the corpse lord was only a small part.  Although the air circulation issue was considered when the temple was built, it was only for the residents inside. With the limited oxygen concentration, the oil in the corridor had been burning tepidly. I don¡¯t know when it would  Completely extinguished.  Iola stared at the dancing flames from a distance, her joy was beyond words. The last obstacle had been cleared, and she would soon be able to realize her long-cherished wish.  Unlike Iola, I have no reverence for the Lady of Decay other than an instinctive curiosity.  What I care more about is Floterra¡¯s injury.  The arrow has been perfectly removed, but due to Iola's unique technique, the pure corruptive power remains in Flotra's body for a long time and cannot be dissipated, which hinders further recovery of the injury. ???????????????? So I¡¯m looking forward to my next meeting with the Decaying Lady.   Iola walked straight up the steps and pulled down the huge curtain covering the outside. The heavy dust forced her to cover her mouth and nose, revealing only one eye that couldn't wait to see the true appearance of the rotten lady's altar.  .  [[[CP|W:600|H:600|A:C]]]Like a crescent moon embedded in the wall, this pure metal altar is divided into two layers: upper and lower.  The bottom platform is in the shape of a rectangular dining table, which is roughly enough for an adult to lie upright on it.  From the high-rise platform, sharp spikes protruded downwards continuously, and an equally sharp arrow was hung vertically by an iron cable on the outermost part. It seemed that after touching a certain mechanism, the iron cable would lose its restraint and slide down.  , causing the arrow to stab the platform heavily.  A small Daedra creature with bat wings is holding a blood-stained metal bowl. A female face is vaguely carved directly above the bowl. Her specific identity can be easily guessed.  Following Lady Decay's line of sight, I moved my gaze downwards and rested on the empty bottom platform again.  "How should we establish contact with Lady Decay in the future? Do we need to offer any sacrifices?" After a while of silence, Iola ended her prayer, breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and responded to me, "Yes. As long as  If we offer a valuable sacrifice on this altar, Lady Decay will answer our prayers. "Looking at the shape of the altar, it is obvious that a person is lying flat on it.  Then he pressed the mechanism and used the hanging arrow to penetrate it completely - a truly brutal and bloody sacrifice.  But when I think about it, I feel relieved. Mephala's ebony blade needs to be opened with the blood of a close relative. Hircine's wild blood made me do unacceptable things when I was baptized for the first time. Sanguin even more  Let me witness a bloody carnival feast In my impression, the Daedra kings seem to like similar anti-human tone.  "What kind of sacrifice? Don't tell me it's Di Bella's prophet." No longer thinking about those painful past events, I retracted my mind and teased Aiola casually, mixed with a little temptation.  Aiola smiled, "Don't worry, didn't I say it? The object of Ms. Decay's hatred is Akai, and the value of that little girl is negligible." "According to your wishes, we have to find another one next."  "Akai's prophet?" "Akai's prophet? Hmm" My question made Aiola fall into thinking, but in the end she gave her own opinion, "I have never heard of it.  I don¡¯t think so. I think it¡¯s enough to sacrifice an Akai priest¡ªfor example, Verulus, the Akai priest in the Hall of the Dead in Markas City. ¡°It¡¯s really a headache. I just finished it.  In the Hall of the Dead incident, the two sides seemed to be at odds again.  "Is this necessary?" "The temple of the Decaying Lady has been in the hands of Akai's followers for thousands of years, and their crimes must be paid for with blood!" Iola's tone was resentful and determined, sounding completely  There is no room for maneuver.  ¡­ ¡­ Inside the temple, it¡¯s smoky and messy, all traces of our arrival.  This is obviously not what a temple should be like.  Iola took the initiative to take on the responsibility of cleaning the temple, and I was assigned a task that I found very objectionable.  On the night when the Forsworn people in Markarth broke out of prison and started a riot, Verulus protected me from being captured by the soldiers. It is impossible for me to act ungratefully; even if I put aside this relationship, I  I can't feel at ease to murder an unrelated person who has no grievances against me - in the eyes of Iola, this can be regarded as an honest sacrifice, but in my eyes, this is a naked murder.  "I don't want to do this," I expressed my objection to Iola bluntly, "There must be other ways to please the corrupt lady than punishing Akai's followers." But this will only bring IolaHe rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't want to do it, just stay here to sort out the housekeeping of the temple, and I will go and capture him myself." "Okay, besides these two jobs, is there any other work to do?" "Now is the time.  How can there be a lack of work when it is in ruins? At the very least, the temple of the Decaying Lady is reopened. It would be too deserted if there were only two of us as witnesses. " "Well, I remember you said that besides you, Rui.  You are not the only one who believes in Lady Decay in Chi, do you need to invite them too?" "Yes, but" Iola waved her hand and made some additions while agreeing with my guess, "This mission.  It can only be done by me. You definitely don¡¯t know where to look for them. " "Then you can contact them. They should be scattered in various areas of Rich. I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to find them," I said with a sense of responsibility.  He asked Iola for instructions in a serious tone, "Leave the rest to me." "Oh? Since you are so enthusiastic, I won't spoil your interest." The plan goes through.  ¡­ ¡­ Now that things have developed to the point where they are now, there is nothing to worry about.  Due to historical reasons, Iola insists that only by offering the blood of pagans can she gain the forgiveness and appreciation of the Corrupt Lady. I don't think Iola's idea is wrong.  But out of my personal principles, I will refuse to implement Iola's request, and even for the sake of Verulus' favor to me, I will even stop Iola's behavior.  But Iola is always my companion. It would be childish to part ways and turn against each other just because of this difference of opinion.  So I decided to give Eola a verbal promise for the time being, and take advantage of her time away to discover the secret of the Decaying Lady myself.  As long as the connection with the Corrupt Lady can be established, Iola has no reason to continue to regard Verulus as a sacrifice target.  As for how to establish contact specifically, Iola believes that a sacrifice that can reflect sincerity should be offered, and I agree with this.  Then let¡¯s start from the point of offering sacrifices.
