The dark night was suddenly split by a strong flash of light. A bolt of lightning as thick as a mighty river fell from the sky, gathered on the top of the towering Mage Tower, then shot out across 1,600 ters of void, blew up the top of a small mountain, and finally hit Onyxia who was hovering in the air without any deviation.
"Ahhhhh——" The Black Dragon Princess’ screams were so fucking sweet to the ears!
It was clearly a scream, but it sounded like Duke’s bones were broken.
No reason!
Just for the indescribable pleasure of being the first to kill!
This is not one of those bosses in the ga that just hides in a dungeon and allows players to form a group to go in and beat or be beaten.
This is a powerful being from the realm of living demigod.
Although Onyxia is the weakest one in the field of demigods, she is famous!
Back then, many strategies for high-difficulty dungeons relied on the limited-ti bonus brought by the black dragon mm head.
How many players have spent countless days and nights to get the Reins of Onyxia and ride the small black dragon mm as a mount.
Alas! It brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it!
There is no other way now! Letting a dragon go back to the mountains is a million tis more terrifying than letting a tiger go back to the mountains! We can only kill him!
Duke stared at the sky, watching the huge body of the Black Dragon Princess fall from the sky and crash to the ground.
This was already near the Mistmantle Manor near the Night Town in the Duskwood. When the Black Dragon Princess fell diagonally, she hit a large abandoned wooden house. The walls and pillars of the house were completely shattered after a sharp collision. Bricks, stones, wooden boards, soil, beams and pillars all broke, and then exploded, turning into mud and gray fragnts that splashed outward.
In an instant, half of the manor was reduced to ruins, with smoke and dust everywhere.
Duke rushed over at high speed and sothing unexpected happened!
As he approached with his magic shield and ice shield, he suddenly heard the long-lost whisper. This sound passed through the eardrum and echoed directly in Duke’s mind...
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"When are you getting married?"
"When will the baby be born?"
Is this... the whisper of the Ancient Gods?
Didn’t that bastard N’Zoth claim that he had given up on saving Onyxia?
Before Duke could react, the whispering suddenly changed.
"Hehe! It’s you! Although I don’t know how you traveled through tens of thousands of years, do you think that the little trick you played on ten thousand years ago will still work ten thousand years later?" This was obviously the voice of Enzos.
The declaration made by this voice gave Duke a very bad feeling!
Not good! Not good! Not good——
Yes! Ten thousand years ago, I used the fictitious ntal barrier created by the system to resist the whispers of N’Zoth. For ten thousand years, it seems that a guy like N’Zoth would do nothing? Nothing has been improved! ?
As if to confirm Duke’s ominous premonition, the next mont, Duke’s spiritual sea was suddenly damaged.
In the illusory spiritual world, a huge pillar that seed like a magic needle that stabilized the sea and penetrated the sky and the earth crashed in. Then it ignored all the order and rules that Duke had built in his spiritual world and directly disrupted everything.
More violent than an earthquake!
More shocking than a tsunami!
More desperate than Tian Qing!
Not only Duke’s spirit, but also the system AI crashed in an instant!
The real Duke was struck by lightning, and he was frozen in place. He couldn’t even move his little finger, let alone use magic.
At this mont, a violent whirlwind suddenly rose in the dense dust, and a black giant beast struggled to pounce on Duke with its only remaining intact claw and leg, opening its terrifying scarlet mouth full of fangs towards Duke.
The world suddenly beca silent.
Everything is light and airy.
Duke ca back to his senses and saw the world in front of him turned black and white, and finally he understood!
Fuck! I’m dead! ?
I’m actually dead! ?
This is unscientific!
This is impossible!
There is no reason for this...that’s strange!
Duke realized that he was dead after a long ti!
It was so long, so long that he almost forgot that he would die.
The horrible pain that tore through the body seed to still linger on the soul.
Duke shuddered suddenly.
There is no way around it. Being torn to pieces by an angry black dragon is definitely not a pleasant experience.
This reminded Duke of his first death in Elwynn Forest 20 years ago. Damn, it seed that the one who killed him was a wild boar nad "Prince"? Now that he has traveled 20 years to commorate his ti travel, he has a princess. This is really...
Duke was surprised and delighted when the system prompt sounded suddenly.
The good news is that the system has been restored.
What shocked was the system prompt: "Warning! Warning! Host, your body is being destroyed at a high speed. The will of the evil god N’Zoth is eroding your body and the soul that remains in it. Your soul power and humanity are decreasing at a rate of 3% per second. Do you want to revive..."
"Nonsense! Of course I’ll revive you!"
Duke couldn’t keep up with the corpses. While he was running around, he lost even more moral integrity, which was even more terrifying.
Just a mont ago, in the abandoned manor, the Black Dragon Princess was laughing wildly while tearing Duke’s body apart.
Blood, intestines, pieces of at, and Duke’s head that was still open...
"Hahaha! Die now! Die now—I let you plot against ? I let you ambush ? I let you destroy this queen’s ti-consuming subversion plan? I let you gather so many heroes to beat all over! Hahaha! What is retribution? This is retribution! Justice will eventually be defeated by evil!"
Just as Onyxia was venting her anger to her heart’s content, sothing strange happened!
All of Duke’s body parts, broken limbs, and even blood disappeared in an instant, turning into streams of light and gathering behind her.
Onyxia seed to have a giant gripping her slender dragon neck, and her sadistic laughter stopped abruptly. She twisted her neck like a rusty machine and slowly turned her head.
A five-story-high energy giant stood behind her. She could tell at a glance that the core of the energy giant was Edmund Duke, who should have been killed and chopped into pieces by her just now. But the condition of the energy giant made her heart fall into the darkest and darkest ice hell.
That is definitely not a normal elental giant.
Because there is no elental giant in the world like the guy in front of him, with the left half being the brightest holy light and the right half being the darkest darkness.
Light and darkness are separated by the midline of the body, without any connection or conflict.
Onyxia was horrified.
But Duke’s situation is also in chaos at the mont.
"Warning! Warning! Because the soul is partially contaminated, the seven deadly sins are triggered: pride, gluttony, lust, anger, jealousy..." That was the system’s warning.
"Calm down and think about what the three virtues are..." That was the whisper of Alonsus Faol’s soul.
At this mont, the riots in Stormwind City have subsided.
Most of the conservative nobles were arrested. What many people could not imagine was that Elune descended. Tyrande stood on the top of Stormwind Fortress and directly summoned the power of Elune.
The goddess’s huge shadow floats in the Valentine’s Day night sky, healing the injured people with her gentle moonlight.
No, even many people who were believed to have died had their lives pulled back from the brink of the gate of hell under the goddess’ unparalleled magic.
For a ti, the na of Elune beca famous in this country where only the Church of Light had previously dominated.
Instead of waiting for any news from Duke, everyone waited for Rhonin who ca back dejectedly.
"Where’s Duke!?" Jaina and others surrounded him anxiously.
"I don’t know... I couldn’t catch up with them when we got close to Duskwood."
Actually, it’s not Rhonin’s fault.
Apart from the most developed areas along the railway, most of the forest areas are still uninhabited. For example, the abandoned manor of Mistmanto, although it looks very close to Night Town on the map, is actually 30 kiloters away. In the pitch-dark Dusk Forest, it takes at least five or six hours for the Night Town’s night watchn to get here.
In the manor, only Onyxia and Duke were left, no, it should be said that there was also a terrible will of an ancient god.
"Impossible! You are dead!" N’Zoth’s will said very firmly, and at the sa ti, it launched an attack on Duke’s spirit again.
"Oh! Is that so?" Duke smiled, but it was a very strange smile. On the left side of his face, which was shrouded in darkness, the left corner of his mouth had a hideous smile. On the right side, which was filled with light, the smile gave people a warm feeling like a spring breeze.
One smile, two interpretations.
This was so bizarre that even a dragon like Onyxia, who had lived for so long, felt chilled to the bone.
N’Zoth launched an attack. He didn’t expect that the last ti he could smash into Duke’s spiritual sea with a savage attitude, like a battering ram to break down the city gate, but this ti it didn’t work. The huge spiritual impact was like hitting a muddy pond, without causing any waves.
"Stupid dragon! Run! I can only attack his soul by relying on you. As long as you are alive, I can find a chance to deal with this kid." After Miyin instructed the Black Dragon Princess, Enzos shouted, "You must have a flaw!"
At this mont, Duke’s mind was in chaos.
But the words "Humanity reduced by 40%!" on his retina deeply irritated Duke.
He was very angry and furious and wanted to vent his frustration. Before he knew it, he had already fought back.
"Huh! Do you like to use whispers to hypnotize others into becoming ntally ill? Okay! Co on - hurt each other! Let’s see who becos a ntal patient first!" Faced with the ntal information coming from Enzos, Duke directly fed it back.
"Ah—what is this!?" N’Zoth scread.
When this thing, which should theoretically be a mory and soul fragnt, was transmitted back to N’Zoth’s will through the ntal channel, N’Zoth was stunned.
In this world, no one has ever seen what a cartoon is, let alone experienced what Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf is, what a tragic villain is, and what a weakling is.
N’Zoth suddenly realized that while he was trying to disrupt Duke, he was also being disrupted.
It suddenly turned into a big gray wolf, and every ti it tried to catch a sheep to eat, tragedy would happen...
"No! This isn’t !"
It turned into a monster and was blasted to pieces by the Galaxy Fleet!
"No! This isn’t either!"
However, when a mory hidden in the deepest part of his heart was dug out, N’Zoth finally realized that the other party was also frantically collecting all his mories with inhuman ans, and then quickly condensing an illusion that was more real and more in line with its mory.
N’Zoth saw its past, that was the ancient tis, when the Titans ca. They destroyed everything of their ancient gods with unparalleled power. Their people, their territories, their bodies, and then cruelly suppressed them.
N’Zoth attempted to resist, but was suppressed again and again.
The pain from the past keeps coming back...
"What kind of power is this!?"
Not only that, the list of evil god followers buried in the shallow layers of its will began to be dug out. Nas were leaked out one by one.
"No! This can’t be the thod used by humans!?" Enzos was really shocked this ti.
It was scared! Really scared!
It cut off all connections with Onyxia as if avoiding the plague, and even annihilated all its hidden hands hidden in the soul of the Black Dragon Princess, because it was afraid that Duke would follow its soul mark and track down its true location.
A few seconds later, when N’Zoth’s power faded from Onyxia’s body like a tide, the Black Dragon Princess was in trouble.
She had been seriously injured and was dying. The last ti she attacked Duke, she had used up almost all her strength. Now seeing Duke actually defeat N’Zoth in the realm of will, she was terrified. Her huge body staggered and could hardly move.
The instinct for survival still drove her to escape from this man who she didn’t know whether he was a god or a devil as soon as possible!
Duke’s mind was already a little unclear at this ti, and he almost instinctively chased Onyxia, because the system clearly marked that Onyxia still had 40% of his soul.
"Host! It is strongly not recomnded to kill the Black Dragon Princess. The part of your soul that was separated due to death is already quite unstable. Once Onyxia, who serves as the carrier, dies, there is a high probability that your part of the soul will dissipate along with her soul."
Oh my god!
Can’t kill yet!
What else can I do?
"It is strongly recomnded to turn on the taming mode!"
"Open it! How fast is the best? I leave it to you." Duke felt very bad, a lot of negative emotions disturbed his brain. Once the seven deadly sins were launched, they would not stop until they were vented. Even with the blessing of Elune, he could not bear it.
Duke tried to stay awake, but he couldn’t. His body seed to be doing sothing that had nothing to do with him.
"No! Don’t co over here!" Onyxia scread, but she hadn’t run two steps before the light and dark giants pounced on her. They held her head with one hand and her neck with the other. Their huge mouths bit the wound on her neck that Varian had cut, and they sucked her blood frantically.
The premonition of death ca crashing down upon her.
She no longer had the strength to break free.
At this mont, she made a decision that she didn’t know whether it was smart or stupid - she actually used her last bit of strength to transform into a human form.
But this ti, she was pinned down again as she staggered away, but this ti it was not the energy giant, but Duke himself.
Before you die, many things will flash by like a kaleidoscope.
Onyxia really regretted it.
After her father, Nefarian, fell to his knees, she specially improved the Dragonflight’s ultimate transformation technique, taking a slightly higher risk of being discovered so that she could have stronger defense in human form.
So what?
He was still discovered and was still stabbed through the chest with a sword.
Transforming into a dragon was not so-so, but transforming back into a human form was aching all over. Unfortunately, she had no physical strength or magic power left, so she had to use the human form to maintain the lowest physiological consumption.
She only had one last trump card left. She struggled to get rid of Duke’s big hand, screaming: "What’s left in my body is your soul! Let go, or I will destroy this part of your soul!"
"What a coincidence! As for the trump card, I have it too!" Duke showed a ferocious smile on one side of his face, and the next mont, a deeper feeling of weakness spread throughout Onyxia’s body.
"This is... the Demon Soul!?"
"To be precise, this is one-fifth of the dragon soul, and it’s only for the black Dragonflight. Foolish mother dragon, have you only realized now that your power has weakened?" Duke laughed as he tied a necklace made of one-fifth of a platinum disc, which could be called the Black Dragon Soul, around the neck of the Black Dragon Princess.
"Ah ...
She lost her last bit of strength to resist and gasped for breath.
"Am I going to die?" She found that her will was gradually becoming blurred.
"Death?" Duke smiled. "If it was the beginning, I might have let you die. But now that you’ve made die for the first ti in a long ti, I won’t settle this account that way."
Duke’s hand, emitting holy light, gently touched the body of the Black Dragon Princess. Although she was a black dragon with strong vitality, she only had 1% of her health left. If she was not treated, she would still die from excessive bleeding.
"Hmm..." Under the extrely rich holy light, Onyxia couldn’t help but let out a comfortable murmur. She was pleasantly surprised to find that her wounds were healing, although many of them were superficial injuries. At least she wouldn’t die in the short term.
Haha! Duke is afraid of soul loss, this is an opportunity...
She hadn’t yet put her so-called brilliant idea into practice when the nightmare suddenly struck again.
That is even more terrible soul torture!
"Ahhhhhhhhhh——" The shrill female wail echoed throughout the entire manor, sounding even more eerie and terrifying in the dark twilight forest.
It was unknown how long it took before she cald down. She lay prone on the dirty black soil, gasping for breath. The sweat oozing from her back was so much that it even washed away the blood stains on her body.
At this ti, Onyxia turned her head and saw that Duke’s hands were equally strange: one hand held the light, and the other hand held the darkness.
The two opposing forces were cald and tad in Duke’s hands.
The black palm pressed down again, and suddenly a wave of pain surged from every corner of her body. It was so painful that she couldn’t breathe, and her brain almost lted because of the pain.
The next second, a golden palm stroked her back, and the severe pain caused by the invasion of dark power subsided instantly, and the wound on her skin was healed.
Duke’s voice sounded again. He spoke very slowly, even in a gentle manner, but to her ears it was like the death knell of hell.
"Onyxia! You attempted to overthrow the Alliance, plotted against Storm King Varian, and caused so many civilian casualties. Your sins cannot be washed away even by death. Now I give you a chance..."
"Bullshit! I am the noble black dragon queen Onyxia! You can hang my head on the city gate to show off your power! But don’t ever expect to surrender! Give up, I will never surrender even if I die ten thousand tis!" Onyxia cursed.
"Well said! Then you’d better die ten thousand tis first!" Duke’s black palm pressed Onyxia’s beautiful head into the mud. The next mont, a dark shock similar to Mind Blast hit her spiritual world directly.
She suddenly saw many incredible scenes - images of her fighting in her lair in Dustwallow Marsh.
who is he?
Who are they?
Facing forty mortal warriors as fierce as wolves and tigers, she fought back desperately, slapping with her claws, biting with her mouth, sweeping with her tail, and burning with her strongest dragon breath.
But she lost!
Again and again!
She was knocked down countless tis, her most precious treasures were robbed, her skin was peeled off, and finally her head was hung at the gate of Stormwind City.
No no no! These are all fake... fake...
The first few tis, she could hypnotize herself. But the feeling was too real! Touch, taste, sll... all five senses! Then there were failures day after day, year after year!
The frustration and sha brought by this endless failure accumulated in her heart ti and ti again!
Onyxia, who once felt powerful, began to lose confidence!
She didn’t know that this was soone’s system AI, which started to render the video of countless players pushing down Black Dragon MM, and reconstructed it in the most perfect three-dinsional form. Almost every person was made up of more than 100,000 facets, and looked absolutely no different from the real thing.
Even by recording her various movents in dragon form, a series of counter-killing and single-killing scenarios were created to give her a deeper sense of frustration.
After being defeated ten thousand tis, her fighting power, which she was most proud of, felt worthless.
Ten thousand ntal shocks, but only three seconds passed in reality. When the ntal shocks ended, Onyxia’s eyes were already confused.
"Do I... still have a future?"
"Yes! Of course! Your future is to put on the reins and beco the exclusive mount of my uncle Duke!" Duke behind him grinned: "I have a deep, deep hatred for you! Don’t worry, I will definitely make up for the dreams that I didn’t realize before. Not only will I ride you to Stormwind City for a ride, I will also take you to the Wyrmrest Temple for a stroll."
For so reason, Onyxia always felt that this was not the real Duke, and that so dark power was influencing Duke, and she just happened to run into the trap. When she heard Duke actually declare that he wanted her to be his mount, she was shafully carried around the world by him, not only showing off in front of mortals, but also becoming a laughing stock in front of her fellow dragons. Onyxia wanted to die.
"No! I will never give in!" She used up her last bit of stubbornness and stared at Duke fiercely.
"Well, that’s a good look! Co on! Transform into a dragon and let ride it! Why, you don’t want to? Well, I can also ride it in human form." After saying that, Duke actually started to search: "Is there anything that can be used as a bridle? Got it! This!"
It was a rubber ball with several holes in it and two straps tied on both sides of the ball.
Duke had a wonderful dream.
He was racing!
He beca a leading man in action movies.
It’s just that this ti the racing was a special feeling. He could clearly feel his hands on the steering wheel. As long as he pressed the black horn in the middle of the steering wheel, the car would make a strange "woohoo" sound similar to sobbing, which was very distinctive.
Although it feels like driving a sports car like a Ferrari, it also feels a bit like riding a motorcycle.
Well, it should be riding a motorcycle!
The thrill of high-speed racing is incomparable! It’s like practicing sword fighting! Every bump feels like I’m about to be thrown off the motorcycle.
Huh?
Why does it feel a bit like riding a horse?
So bumpy!
In a daze, Duke seed to see himself whipping a horse with a thick nine-tailed whip, which he whipped at the butt of his mount.
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard.
"Congratulations, host. Onyxia has surrendered. She has begun to transmit her soul back to the host! Your moral integrity is recharging 55%... 56%..."
As the value rose to 100%, Duke finally began to wake up.
When he really realized what was going on, he found that sothing seed to be wrong.
Damn it!
What the hell is this?
Why am I holding two dragon horns in my hands? Why are these two dragon horns on the head of Countess Katrina in human form? And my dragon taming whip...
Perhaps it was the excitent that caused him to lose control. After Duke regained consciousness, he inadvertently dealt Onyxia the final blow. Onyxia, whose mouth was stuffed with sothing, arched her back and raised her head to the sky. After a mournful cry, she seed to have lost all her strength and lay on the ground in an ORZ posture.
Du was frightened and loosened his grip, and the dragon horn slipped out of his hand.
At this mont Duke finally realized what he had done -
"Damn! I tad the dragon!?"
Sensitively aware of the changes in the dragon whip, Onyxia had tears in her eyes and showed a pleading look that made Duke unbelievable.
Duke pulled her up and hurriedly untied the restraints around her mouth.
The first thing Onyxia said was, "Master! I surrender! Stop torturing , I will be obedient in the future."
"Well..."
This... things seem to be getting a little complicated!
Duke was confused.
Logically speaking, Onyxia has done so many bad things, it’s okay to kill her ten thousand tis! Ten thousand tis is not wrong!
But now the relationship between them seems to be subtly different.
More importantly, along with the Black Dragon Princess’ humiliating declaration, her soul changed. Duke could clearly see in his spiritual vision that there was really an extra rein on his right hand.
This is not an ordinary rein, this is a soul rein made of Onyxia’s soul. This is the sa as Sargeras asking the demon lords to hand over part of their souls to exist in the twisting void.
I’m not exaggerating. Now Duke can make Onyxia suffer a fate worse than death with just a thought.
System prompt: "Congratulations host, you have obtained the legendary item True Onyxia’s Reins!"
Right!
Not those shrunken copies of Onyxia that are only for players to play with!
But it is the real reins of the Black Dragon Princess!
Duke couldn’t hold back any longer and burst out laughing: "Hahahaha! Hahahahahahahahahahaha - I told you not to get it even if you try a hundred tis! I told you to be reserved! I told you to call black! Now I don’t want that knockoff stuff, I have the real thing."
That’s resentnt!
Just like the undead horses in Rivendare that never appeared after countless attempts.
Before traveling through ti, Duke could not get the reins of the Black Dragon mount no matter how hard he tried. The last ti he did get one, a bastard nad ’New Soldier’ and his ’friend’ tead up to steal his dragon.His resentnt went through the roof!
Now Duke’s thoughts are clear and he feels refreshed!
He was happy, but Onyxia was in trouble.
Thinking of the miserable and cruel life ahead, Onyxia shed tears of humiliation.
If it was just ordinary coercion, she would rather die than obey.
But it turns out that there is a being in this world that is more terrifying than ghosts and gods—Duke!
On one side is extre pain and torture, and on the other side is the most gentle and comfortable holy light. Duke is simply the perfect combination of an angel and a devil.
This kind of torture was far worse than what her father did to her mother.
I still rember that she asked her mother, "Since you are so afraid of my father, why did you give birth to and Nefarian for him?"
Sinestra replied: "A weak dragon that can’t beat down is not qualified to be my mate. Although I am reluctant, since Neltharion has the ability to bite my neck and press my dragon head to the ground, I have the obligation to give birth to his children. This is the rule of the black Dragonflight."
Onyxia suddenly understood her mother’s feelings. Perhaps this was what was called being conquered...
However, she, the extrely noble Black Dragon Princess, was pinned down by a human. What the hell was this?
Onyxia’s mind was in a ss and she had no idea what to do.
In the darkness in the distance, torches began to light up. Duke realized that they must be the Night Watchn from Dusktown. After he beca the lord of the eastern region of Duskwood, he strengthened the Night Watchn. Most of the Night Watchn were veterans who had retired from the first and second Dark Gate Wars and were quite skilled.
Duke didn’t want to cause them trouble, so he just projected an illusion over and explained the situation to a night watchman.
Duke looked around, picked up Onyxia, whose clothes had long been torn into strips, took out a spare wizard robe from his storage bag, wrapped her up, and left.
You can’t go back to Stormwind City imdiately.
Duke originally wanted to use magic to send a ssage to Jaina and the others to let them know he was safe, but when he saw the trembling Onyxia, Duke suddenly felt a pain in his balls.
Duke directly opened the portal to Karazhan.
As soon as he ca out of the portal, Duke saw a petrified ghost wizard.
Khadgar, well, Duke had almost forgotten about him. Now it seed that he was still diligently helping him run Karazhan.
"Wow! My dear master! Although I know you are very busy and have no ti to take care of your mage tower, you shouldn’t give such a big... scare as soon as you co back!" Khadgar looked around at Onyxia, who was huddled behind Duke, wrapped in a mage robe and shivering, with an ’I know’ expression on his face.
Duke’s face flushed, and he gave Khadgar so control of the reins. "Find a place to hide her. Don’t let her escape, and don’t believe anything she says. Don’t give her anything except the minimum food and dical supplies. Got it?"
"I understand! If His Majesty Proudmoore asks, I will at most tell her that you hid a dragon as an experintal material."
