Chapter 1262 Reginard''s request (I''m a fat belly and soft)
“…………………”
At this moment, the entire hall of Storm Fortress fell into a dead silence.
Whether it was the guards, the dragon men, or the King Varian, they were standing there blankly like stone statues. Looking at the black dragon corpse in front of him that had completely lost its breath of life, the latter had collapsed to the ground, his head was smashed to pieces, and even his brain was spurted out. He seemed to be dead and could not die any more.
"Bang."
Duanmu Huai picked up the hammer, then swayed the blood foam on it and looked at everyone.
"I''ll go back first if it''s okay."
"Why?"
Hearing Duanmuhuai''s words, everyone came to their senses and saw another nobleman standing beside King Varian with a clever cleverness and then pointed at the dragon people.
“Catch them!”
There was basically no suspense in the next battle. When the dragon men saw their master being killed so easily, they were already scared and wanted to turn around and run away without any intention of fighting. Soon, they were taken down by the brave guards and then taken away. Duanmu Huai also nodded to King Varian, then turned around and planned to leave.
"Please wait a moment, this warrior!"
Seeing Duanmuhuai leaving, King Varian, who had been stunned, came to his senses and shouted loudly, while Duanmuhuai turned his head and looked at him.
"What else is there?"
"No, that..."
Looking at Duanmu Huai carrying a war hammer in front of him, King Varian couldn''t speak for a moment, but he was the lord of a country after all. After a moment of stunned silence, he hurriedly calmed down.
"You have helped us a lot... I am here to express my gratitude to you..."
“Oh, it’s okay.”
Duanmu Huai nodded silently and replied casually, which made Varian not know what to say for a moment. At this time, the nobleman next to him hurriedly spoke and found a step for his king.
"That... do you know for a long time that the countess is the incarnation of the black dragon?"
To be honest, everyone present is buzzing now. Even if they witnessed the black dragon''s corpse with their own eyes, they still can''t believe their eyes. Or their brains refused to believe such a ridiculous thing. In fact, with the death of the black dragon, everyone gradually came to their senses and found that their memories seemed to have some confusion. Think about it carefully, there was no such person as the Countess Presto in Stormwind City before, but for some reason, including Varian, everyone seemed to think that it was natural for this Countess here.
I didn''t react before, but now when I think about it, everyone was sweating in cold sweat, but Duanmu Huai seemed very calm and didn''t seem surprised at all.
"Of course, I saw it as soon as I came."
“As soon as we come…”
Hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, the nobleman twitched the corners of his eyes.
"Why didn''t you remind us?"
"I thought she was your dog, who knows what''s going on."
Duanmu Huai spread his hands helplessly. For Duanmu Huai, who is the true god, the black dragon''s trick could not be hidden from him at all. After all, no matter how she changes her form, the appearance of her soul will not change. But Duanmuhuai didn''t care too much. After all, this black dragon was standing next to him, not on the throne. Who knows if it was a dog raised by this king?
Conversely, if he saw the black dragon sitting on the throne as soon as he came in, Duanmu Huai would definitely smash it with a hammer without saying a word.
The dragon clan also wants to rule humanity? Let''s be your dream of spring and autumn.
"It''s nothing, then I''ll leave."
Duanmu Huai waved his hand, then turned around and left the hall. Seeing him leave, Varian wanted to open and call Duanmuhuai again, but was stopped by the nobles around him.
"Your Majesty, let''s deal with the current problem first."
"this…………"
Hearing the words of the ministers beside him, Varian came to his senses and looked around. When he looked at the corridor ahead again, there was no trace of Duanmu Huai.
"All right."
Varian had to withdraw his thoughts and nodded.
"Let''s deal with the problem here first."
Duanmu Huai didn''t care about the chaos in Storm Fortress. After leaving Storm Fortress, he returned to the hotel and began to enjoy local delicacies. As for the next stop, Duanmu Huai has decided to go to the place called Anqira, kill the ancient **** sealed in it, and then devour and absorb its power.
"You''re back, uncle."
Back at the guest room, Mio Narise and Akami Hori also came over curiously.
"How is that king?"
"It''s totally not possible, it''s quite useless."
Duanmu Huai shook his head and sighed silently.
"It''s purely a waste, I don''t know if I''m controlled by someone. Alas... it seems that I have to find someone else."
"No, isn''t that the king?"
Xiaomeiyan was a little surprised when she heard Duanmu Huai''s sigh.
"What''s wrong with the king? Everyone in this world can be a king, but how to be a good king is another matter. Varian... In my opinion, the level of being a king is just average. Of course, in the final analysis, he is not strong enough, otherwise these problems will not be a problem."
When the black dragon returned to its original state, Duanmuhuai observed Varian, who was so scared that he stood there motionless. If the black dragon hadn''t seemed to want to kill him, he would have slapped Varian to death with one claw. From this point of view, Duanmu Huai sentenced Varian to death in his heart.
The character of a ruler does not matter, what matters is whether he can have a firm will. In Duanmuhuai''s opinion, Varian is not as useful as Dardanell, the traveler ronin. I''m afraid this Storm Kingdom is beyond salvation.
Hey, what should I do next? I remember that there are only a few human kingdoms left here, besides the Storm Kingdom, there are Kurtiras, Dalaran and Gilnis.
I heard that there are werewolfs in Gilness now, and Duanmuhuai has long stopped treating them as humans. Dalaran seems to be a place where various races live together, so only Kurtiras is left. This country happens to be located in Kalimdo. Duanmuhuai passed by Kurtiras when he was planning to go to Anqira to see how the situation was there.
Just as Duanmuhuai was enjoying food in the guest room and complaining to the two of them, the chaotic Storm Fortress finally calmed down.
Well, for the time being.
“Huh……”
Looking at the floor in front of him, King Varian''s expression was still a little stiff. The black dragon''s body had been dragged away, and the blood on the floor had been washed away. Only the sunken ground proved what had happened here before.
Because the situation happened too suddenly before, everyone knew nothing except that they had known that the black dragon concealed their identity and sneaked into the Storm Kingdom. It was not until now that most of the transactions were processed that they had another detailed talk with Marshal Reginald, who had exposed the identity of the black dragon before, and then they learned about the true identity of the black dragon.
The daughter of the legendary terrifying dragon''s death wings - Onyxia, the Black Dragon Princess. But to be honest, even Varian couldn''t believe this fact.
It’s not that they suspected Marshal Reginard, who was a very prominent man. He once raided the Tower of Medivh with former General Anduin Lothar of Storm City, and was loyal to the Kingdom of Storm. Logically speaking, there is nothing to doubt about what he says.
Well, according to the truth.
What if it’s not reasonable?
The reason is very simple.
The daughter of Deathwing, Onyxia, the Black Dragon Princess, was killed with one blow? ? ?
Do you believe it or believe that I am the king of Titans?
Although everyone saw the scene of Duanmu Huai killing the black dragon with one blow, he rationally could not accept this result! Logically speaking, shouldn''t it be that everyone should try their best to make Storm City even be ruined and sacrifice countless times, and finally take it down - or be directly escaped by the other party?
In fact, after that, King Varian also invited the Archbishop of the Holy Light Church and the respected great master to examine the body of the black dragon. Without telling them the truth, these respected and powerful beings unanimously confirmed that this black dragon was indeed a very threatening object, and it was indeed directly killed by a very powerful existence. In fact, they were also very curious about who could destroy such a powerful black dragon.
And if this black dragon is Onyxia, the daughter of Deathwings - they can''t say for sure, after all, no one has really seen the Black Dragon Princess, right?
Even Marshal Reginald, who brought the intelligence and personally dispelled the illusion of Onyxia, was a little unsure. In his impression, Onyxia was a treacherous and cunning conspirator. The ability of this conspirator can be seen from her invisible name and sneaking into Stormwind City to try to control Varian and the top nobles of Stormwind City. In fact, according to Reginald''s investigation, even the previous commotion of the stonemason union and the death of the queen were closely related to Onyxia.
So in Reginad''s imagination, Onyxia is a very cunning, cautious and terrible enemy. To be honest, if this black dragon is a puppet or clone or something, he will be more acceptable.
But you said that conspirator was killed by a hammer?
How to say it...it''s a bit like that... In short, it feels like this shouldn''t be the ending like this.
What made Reginad even more speechless was that the one who killed Onyxia was not a hidden master of the Storm Kingdom, nor was it a famous hero, but an adventurer. Even this adventurer came here because he discovered any conspiracy and tricks. He simply came to deliver a letter and then get a bounty.
Then he killed Onyxia.
Putting his heart in mind, Reginald felt that if he had died like this, he would definitely vomit three liters of blood.
And there is one thing Reginald did not tell Varian that when he followed Lothar to raid the Tower of Medivh, he had seen an illusion about his future - in that prophecy he would be killed by the black dragon, and in fact, when Reginald returned to the Storm Fortress and planned to confront Onyxia, he was already mentally prepared.
The result……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Who is that warrior?"
Reginard couldn''t help but sigh, while King Varian smiled bitterly.
“I have to say that he helped us a lot.”
After Onyxia''s death, King Varian felt that his mind seemed to gradually wake up. Not only him, but even his subordinates were the same. Some problems that had not been carefully considered seemed to be able to figure out now.
In fact, the previous letters from Mayor Mareb and Marshal Oslet have already explained the strength of Duanmuhuai. Fortunately, Mareb is just a necromancer, but there are many people in Stormwind City that can kill it. But the content written in Marshal Oslet''s letter was a bit sensational. Six people killed nearly a thousand undead army. At that time, King Varian was still under the influence of Onyxia and was not very clear-headed, but he also knew that this was not reliable. However, at that time, he didn''t think much about it, only knew that the problems in Nanhai Town and Alashi Heights had been solved, and this adventurer was just helping to deliver the letter.
As for the specific situation, it is not too late to ask Marshal Oslet when he comes. So Varian just gave Duanmu Huai some running fee at that time, and the latter didn''t seem to care much.
What''s the result now?
Is it strange to kill thousands of undead people who can smash the black dragon with one hammer?
Not surprising at all, OK!
But why have you never heard of such a strong man?
You should know that in recent years, the continent of Azeroth has been in turmoil and all kinds of things have been going on. According to the truth, such a strong man should not be unknown.
Could it be that this is actually a trap set by the Black Dragon? That Onyxia might have known that Reginald would come back to accuse him, so she deliberately used this method to get out? Or is there something wrong with this man himself?
"Your Majesty."
Just as Varian was thinking hard, Marshal Reginard spoke.
"I have something to ask for."
"What''s the matter? Marshal Reginard?"
“The question about Black Rock Mountain.”
Marshal Reginald''s face turned solemn and he looked at Varian.
"Oniksia is indeed trying to engage in conspiracy in Stormwind City, but I suspect that this is not her main purpose! In fact, when I went to the Burning Plains to investigate, I was once captured by the Black Iron Dwarf and was lucky to be rescued by several adventurers. And I can be sure that in Black Rock Mountain, those black dragons are definitely doing some conspiracy! Therefore, I once again ask Your Majesty to order troops to clean up the entire Black Rock Mountain!"
"this………"
Hearing Marshal Reginald''s request, Varian immediately showed a embarrassed expression. In fact, Marshal Reginald had believed more than once that Stormwind City should send troops to clear out the Black Iron Dwarfs and Dragon Man who burned the plains, but at that time, most people, including Varian, disagreed with this. Moreover, Stormwind City is now in ruins and is not suitable for military use. Besides, there is nothing to ask for in the Burning Plain, so no one wants to ask for trouble.
Later, Marshal Reginard decided to lead a team of men to investigate and then disappeared.
Everyone thought he was dead, but they didn’t expect that he was locked up by the Black Iron Dwarf!
Marshal Reginard was imprisoned by the Black Iron Dwarf, and he was idle and couldn''t escape, so he kept thinking in prison.
It’s not a big fanfare to burn the plains by myself, so why was the Black Iron Dwarf discovered it?
Judging from the Black Iron Dwarfs ambushing themselves, they obviously got the information, not the blind cat hitting the dead mouse!
So Marshal Reginald thought about it and locked the culprit on the countess. It was after that that he confirmed that the countess was Onyxia, the daughter of Deathwings.
But the problem was not solved.
That''s...Why should Onyxia deal with herself?
Although Marshal Reginald was not in dealing with Onyxia, in Stormwind, he was not the only one who was not in dealing with Onyxia. In addition to the dragon man from Black Stone Mountain, Marshal Reginald had a bold guess, that is, Onyxia was dealing with him because he wanted to investigate Black Stone Mountain!
In other words, there must be something Onyxia doesn’t want her to see in Black Rock Mountain!
So after returning to Stormwind, Marshal Reginard asked King Varian again to investigate Blackstone Mountain.
Regardless of whether the dead Onyxia is true or not, it is certain that there is something black dragon in Black Stone Mountain that does not want others to discover. Moreover, since Onyxia is causing trouble in Stormwind City, it means that the matter in Black Stone Mountain must also be related to Stormwind City!
But for Varian, I really can''t get anyone out of my hands to go to Black Rock Mountain now.
"I understand what you mean, but we really can''t draw too many people to investigate Black Rock Mountain..."
"Then, I have a suggestion, hoping that the warrior can accompany me and go to Black Rock Mountain again."
"this………"
Hearing Marshal Reginald''s proposal, Varian immediately understood what he meant.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"certainly."
Marshal Reginald nodded.
"This... I certainly have no problem."
Varian hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"But I''m not sure if that warrior will agree to go to Black Rock Mountain with you."
"Please rest assured, your majesty, just give him the task to me."
At this moment, Marshal Reginald also had a serious expression.
In any case, I have to figure out the truth behind this. If the adventurer''s strength is real, then when he goes to Black Rock Mountain alone, he will be enough to support an army!
