Chapter 789: Conspiracy in the Cabin

Onexia's black drakes were just a charge, and Locke thought he could... The arrangement was destroyed for the most part...

Because he didn't believe that the Black Dragon Legion would attack in a crowd saturated close to the coastline, on a busy shipping lane... But that's exactly what Onexia did.

It was done decisively without a hint of hesitation.

This almost destroyed all of Locke's confidence...

He lay on the deck in a daze, motionless, until Claire, whose hair had been burned by dragon's breath, shook Locke's arm vigorously, revealing him from the ruin.

"Your Majesty! You can't fall! Stand up! The soldiers are looking at you! We still have a chance! ”

Locke looked at Claire with a blank face, who had his hair burned by the dragon's breath, and said to Locke with the pain of the scalp on his head, "Boat! The ship hasn't sunk yet! They don't spit fire anymore! They stopped!! ”

Sure enough, the dense black dragons overhead were circling and flying, not spitting dragon breath on the ship he was on... No, they're still spitting, just burning the sails and masts ...

"The soldiers have begun to fight back! Your Majesty! You have to cheer up! These dragons aren't as invulnerable as we think they are!"

Locke followed his guidance and saw that there were still many complete repeating spearguns on the deck, under the command of Mario, under the precise control of the guards, almost a salvo could shoot a five-meter-long young dragon into the sea!!

Locke gave courage to the soldiers when he stood up, and many of the guards rejoiced at the sight of Locke rising from the deck. They shouted to each other, the king cheered each other up without being hurt, and once again overcame his psychological fears and worries and went into battle.

The sailors and many of the guards were shooting into the sky with muskets, and the sound of crackling was constantly transmitted. Although they were scared and nervous, they gritted their teeth and grimaced their faces, roaring against the legendary dragon.

They have their own mission, and their mission is to protect themselves...

And as their king, how can they give up?

"Yes, we still have a chance..."Locke muttered a few times, and his unfocused eyes slowly returned to his former composure, which relieved Claire, who was worried.

"Quick, open the lower camouflage and let the spearguns hidden in the lower layer shoot!" Locke almost immediately thought he had hole cards!

But he soon noticed that the buzzing of speargun fire could already be heard in the lower deck beneath his feet. The young dragons who passed through the heart of the lion king and the ship under his feet were shot by the eight or nine spearguns in the mouth of the shot under their feet, and they plunged headlong into the sea and fluttered.

Some sailors and guards were also accidentally dragged under the ship by the young dragons, but what no one noticed was that those who jumped into the water, or the young dragons that fell into the water, were slowly dragged under the sea by something...

After the first round of blows, the black dragons were afraid of what was on the ship, and stopped spitting dragon breath into the ship, which allowed everyone on board to escape. But then, the young dragons began to try to land directly on the deck, fighting the ship's sailors and soldiers with their claws covered in thick scales and wide wings.

The Iron Guards in charge of contact warfare surrounded the young dragons who had landed on the ship, and they wore weapons and shields that emitted various lights, and began to move around the limited deck space.

Huge in size and protected by sturdy scales, almost every baby dragon is a nuisance for human soldiers. A single sweep of the front paws threatens to knock away the black iron shield forged by the dwarves in the hands of the guards. With a sudden sweep, there is a risk that someone will be swept into the sea.

But because the guards didn't wear armor on the sea, it would undoubtedly make them much more flexible.

As Lordaeron's elite of battles, the Iron Guards are no strangers to dealing with these large, clumsy creatures.

Dragons, dragons, guardian dragons.

For ordinary people, dragons are indeed legendary creatures. Among the minstrands of Lordaeron, they are as tall as mountains, they have dangerous and magical dragon magic, they have countless riches in their treasury, and they even lure strong adventurers to give birth to offspring... In short, they are greedy and lustful, they eat people and they don't need to chew it...

But for wizards and powerful people who know the secrets of this world, ordinary dragons are nothing more than some powerful monsters... For them, as long as they don't transform and don't live too long, the dragon is not that dangerous.

Of course, if it's the guardian dragon, that's a different story...

As the king's guards, it is only natural that the guards have to learn how to deal with the crisis of the giant creature 'dragon'. You know, the hunters of Azeroth are very keen on dragon hunting. After all, equipment and potions made from dragon blood, dragon skin, dragon scales, dragon tendons, dragon bones, etc., are very popular.

So this kind of training for dragons is not a small practice...

Of course, it's more than that.

It has become a habit in Azeroth to attach various defensive or offensive magic to deal with various special magical beasts.

Naturally, the same is true of Locke's guards.

Before coming here, he had the wizards enchant the shield of the Iron Guard, the one in charge of the anti-tower shield, with an enchantment that was immune to fire. Each of these men is tall and powerful, and is responsible for attracting attacks from powerful creatures that may come across. Around him, or behind hostile creatures, guards with demon-breaking and armor-piercing magic attached to their weapons are responsible for attacking them.

The tactics are simple, similar to fighting bosses in the game, but the difference is that it's the game, it's reality. Fail, something goes wrong, and it's really dead.

Therefore, it is important to grasp the timing to attack Warcraft, because even if the equipment is enchanted, there may be a sudden problem with the equipment, resulting in accidental death. Also, the material used to craft the equipment determines the effect of the enchantment.

In this world, enchantment is when a wizard inscribes or draws a small concentrating circle on equipment, and continuously absorbs the surrounding free elements through the self-action of the circle to achieve the effect of equipment enchantment.

Some metals are magical, while others are not, and the metal that is not magically friendly cannot be enchanted if they are made of equipment, and it is difficult for wizards to enchant them, or they are quickly rendered useless after enchantment. Equipment made of metal with affinity magic will be easily enchanted, and it will greatly increase the effect of enchantment, and will also improve the quality of equipment.

Bronze, Mithril, Real Silver, Thorsilver. Adamantite. These are the few metals that Locke has come into contact with so far.

Bronze is the cheapest and most producing, and is the source of the vast majority of enchanted equipment; It's not good, but it's certainly better than ordinary forged equipment that can be used directly without enchantment.

Mithril, True Silver, and Thorsilver are all associated ores of silver ores, and most of these rare ores are relatively lightweight. Wizards like to add mythril to their long belt ornaments to reduce the weight of the ornaments and enhance the magical effect, so these metals are commonly used by wizards and are expensive. And because of the conflict with the engineers' profession, they also need their own mechanical creations that can add this ore to improve various ductilities; So, this stuff is expensive.

Pure gold, which is rare in Azeroth, is heavy and hard. As it stands, this is the best metal for making magical weapons and gear. Generally speaking, to forge a high-quality piece of armor or weapon, you only need to add some pure gold to it... So every master smith expects to be able to forge a piece of equipment out of pure gold. It's just that this thing is an associated ore of gold mines, which is very rare, and with a silver-blue glow all over the body, its excavations are often collected by the great nobles as jewelry or heirlooms.

In Locke's impression, there was only a large amount of pure gold in the outer regions, and there were also kryptonite mines.

Of course, Locke did not have the luxury of using these rare and precious magical metals to make equipment for all the guards, in this world, the equipment is made by mixing the above rare metals into it. Of course, if you have money, of course that's fine.

He just asked the blacksmiths to add some Mithril to the guards when they made special equipment. While not affecting the quality of the equipment, it can reduce the weight of the equipment and ensure the affinity for magic. That's enough for the Iron Guards to deal with these young dragons.

At this moment, there was a small team of iron guards in front of Locke, besieging the black dragon as they had trained. The iron guard in front of him was two meters tall, and the huge shield firmly protected him behind him, and the black iron shield mixed with Mithril glowed softly red. The first Iron Guard touched the spell on the shield, and a dazzling golden light continued to shine through the shield on the young dragon's eyes, attracting it to look at its side. On both sides of the young dragon's back, the other guards were also ready for battle, taking out their enchanted weapons of colorful light, waiting for the opportunity to attack.

Time and time again, the light spell on the shield was used to tease the young dragon, causing the young dragon's angry claws to claw, but the nimble iron guard carried the tower shield back and forth, and each time the young dragon returned in vain. This made the young dragon angrier, and it unconsciously ignored the others around it.

Suddenly, Locke heard the sound of a count.

"Three, two, one!"

"Do it!"

The iron guard who was the target suddenly shouted, and the golden holy light enveloped his whole body to form a smooth cover, and the one-handed hammer on his right hand emitted a piercing light, and he threw it fiercely. The hammer slashed through an arc and slammed into the black dragon's head. I saw that the young dragon's head tilted heavily to the left, and then it quickly turned its head angrily and howled, and subconsciously spread its wings and stretched out, its head lowered and stretched its neck, and the visible fire sac under the neck slowly turned red!

It's about to spew dragon breath!

"Your Majesty, let's step aside!"

But before Claire could make a move, the young dragon spewed out a thick red dragon breath.

A pungent flame spewed out of the young dragon's mouth and headed straight for the guard, who held the shield in his left hand and put his left shoulder behind the shield, burying his head in the shield and hiding his whole body in the shield.

Just like water meets fire, contrary to Locke's expectations, the flame went straight to the shield impartially, and seemed to go directly into the shield and disappear without a trace! At the same time, Locke clearly felt that the free elements around him became hot and violent... It seems that the shield absorbs the flames, then transforms them into magical elements and releases them into the surrounding air?

Whoosh!

Before the young dragon's breath was over, several arrows shot at the fire sac under its neck from different positions. On either side of it, the guards who had gathered around it and waited for their time suddenly burst onto the dragon's back, stabbing at the junction between the fleshy wings and the body, as well as the neck and the middle of the body.

The enchanted weapon easily burrowed into the body of the black dragon young dragon, but they did not stop, but grabbed the weapon in their hands and kept moving. The two guards who were responsible for attacking the young dragon's wings cut off most of the young dragon's wings almost like sawing wood, clumsily but quickly! And the iron guard, who climbed to the head with his hands and feet nimble and fast, quickly blinded the black dragon with a swarthy dagger, and then kept piercing the fire sac under its neck!

The black dragon's wails were incessant, and it wanted to fly, but the iron guards and broken wings only made it roll around the deck... The guards were scattered on the dragon's body, but even then no one let go, no one came down from the dragon's back, on the contrary, they kept stabbing it.

In just a few moments, the dragon was directly killed on the deck by several iron guards...

Locke was still surprised by this.

He'd seen quite a few dragons, and his fear of the thing had slowly subsided after spending so much time on Tyri's back. But this was the first time he had seen a mortal slay a dragon... Especially humans.

Mostly, these people are just his guards ... The soldier in charge of the security of the company!

It seems, these dragons are not strong either? Am I looking too highly at them? Or have all my men grown to this height?

Are they no longer the crusader recruits who had suffered so much before?

"Your Majesty, don't look at it, it's dead. Hurry up and heal the wound on my head..."

Locke, who came back to his senses, hurriedly used the Holy Light Technique to heal the wound on Claire's head. The other guards heal each other's uninjured teammates, covering their speargun-shooting teammates while continuing to attack the black drake that landed on the deck.

At this time, another black dragon hovered above Locke's head, relying on its thick black and red scales, resisting the attack of the speargun, levitating its huge body with its open mouth, constantly burning and destroying the cables and sails with the dragon's breath, forcing the hull to slow down.

Sou!

A speargun was firmly inserted into the fire sac under its neck, piercing its neck, and streams of uncontrollable flames and pungent smoke instantly emerged from under the almost transparent and shiny dragon scales. The young dragon tried to vomit a few times, but only a few black smoke rings were spit out.

Locke looked back and saw that Mario had already gone into battle and was operating a group of spearguns, and at this moment, he was blushing and thick-necked with another guard, turning the speargun's roulette wheel and turning the spring back hard.

Seeing this scene, Locke, who was already holding back the fire in his belly, picked up the bow and arrow and quiver dropped by the iron guard and carried it on his back, pulled out the steel cluster arrow on his back and aimed at the reptilian with a wide open mouth full of bows and arrows, and the energy mixed with red and gold went down Locke's arm and drilled into the arrow in his hand, emitting a bright light!!

Collapse!

The arrow pulled out an afterimage and pierced into the dragon's open mouth, and the golden-red power suddenly exploded in its mouth, and the huge dragon head was blown to pieces!

Having its head shattered, the young dragon still struggled, flapping its huge wings to fly, but after a few reluctances, it plunged headlong into the sea, splashing huge waves...

The battle is in the middle of the game, and Locke wants to see what his wizards are doing, but he finds that the wizards on the ship have already started working.

They scattered and cast spells, they gathered their strength to form a huge blue shield to wrap the hull of the ship, blocking the destruction of the ship by the black dragon, and some wizards began to try to use spells to drive away the black dragon in the sky.

Pure clusters of ice, fire, nature, and shadow energy were released by them to surround Locke, and every black dragon that tried to get close to Locke would be attacked by these clusters of energy flying in the sky. They are like missiles, blowing straight on the black dragon's body, but unfortunately the effect of the dragon scales makes the damage suffered by the black dragon have little effect, and the damage caused by arcane magic is not as real as that of a speargun.

"Where's our secret weapon?!" Locke grabbed Claire beside him and asked, who motioned for Locke to look at the position of the cabin.

"Whoosh~! Chirp~~ Smack! ”

A few guards carried a round metal tube that looked like a bazooka, and the tail of the barrel was covered with a fierce smoke! The warhead with tail smoke in the sky flew in a serpentine shape in the sky chasing its target, and when it was close to a black dragon, it exploded suddenly, and a thick black smoke covered the airspace, and the black dragon screamed miserably, and plunged into the sea from the sky!

"And what! Fast! It's all taken out and used! ”

"Let's stay away! Your Majesty, don't go over! These are still unstable experiments! We bring these just to see the effect! This thing will explode in the hands of the soldiers!! ”

Claire grabbed Locke and stopped him from trying to go over and operate the bazooka.

When this thing was first experimented, he saw a lot of goblins being blown up to scum! Although they are powerful, they are not worth the king's risk!

Rocket after rocket flew into the sky, the black dragons dodged the strange exploding metal, and some of the unlucky black dragons kept planting into the sea. Smoke slowly enveloped the ship, but Claire's words were soon fulfilled. Two simultaneous explosions rang out in the smoke, and the guards inside didn't even snort, leaving only minced meat to be blown up on the ship...

Alas...

Without looking, Locke knew what was going on inside.

Even though Claire had kept the operators out of the crowded, a group of speargun-wielding guards were blown away.

Locke turned his head to look back at the sea, where the young dragons circled each ship, spitting flames and burning the sails and masts. Many of the young dragons had established themselves on the decks of some of the surrounding ships, constantly flipping their bodies and roaring at the guards surrounding them, sweeping aside those who stood too close with their claws and huge wings, or falling into the sea.

At this moment, Locke was anxious but annoyed!

He was angry and ashamed of his assertiveness and arrogance, and felt deep remorse for this asymmetrical battle. He really underestimated Onexia, she actually let her heir appear in front of everyone and attack?! Compared with the information obtained in the game or data in the previous life, the intensity of the attack is not worth mentioning at all!!

What would make yourself think, just a few dragons on the attack? And not the black dragon that is now overwhelming?

And, whether or not Onexia knew his plan, his plan might be just a joke in her eyes!! She even said that she didn't care how she planned it at all! As a guardian dragon, this is her proud capital...

Why would you naturally think that a guardian dragon would act the way you wanted?

Is it because becoming a king makes you arrogant?

The anguish in his heart made Locke raise the bow and arrow in his hand... He wants to vent the anger in his heart!!

Several young dragons slowly hovered as they approached Locke's ship, sensing the presence of the shield, sucking in the air around them, spitting flames that scorched the blue shield that enveloped the hull.

"That's you!" Locke thought silently in his heart, pulling out the arrow in the quiver behind him, and almost filling the bowstring at the same time, a steady stream of dark golden energy gushed out from his body, turning the half-human tall bow in his hand into the color of golden-red energy!

Collapse!

The steel arrow made a sharp whistling sound and slammed into the body of a young dragon, and the energy containing Locke's anger on the arrow suddenly exploded in a small area!

Syllable!

The baby dragon's abdomen burst into a mass of flesh and blood, and it fell into the sea with a grief. Seeing this, the other young dragons immediately rushed to fly in other directions...

After surviving the first wave of dragon blows, Lordaeron's soldiers relented. At the same time, the second wave of black drakes turned into humans on the ship, and they began to land more on the ship. The guards began to divide into small teams, some using enchanted swords and shields against the young dragons on the ship, others shooting the young dragons in the sky with bows and muskets, and the wizards from Lordaeron began to quickly enchant the arrows that the Iron Guards carried with them, each arrow they brushed with a brilliant blue light. This greatly increased the threat of the Iron Guards to the drakes, and many drakes had to leave the ship's surroundings.

Before he could be sure of the Iron Guards' victory, Locke drew his other arrows and drew his bow and arrows to aim at the other young dragons who approached. He was not a professional archer and had not been trained as a ranger, and his arrows could only deal with young dragons suspended in the air.

Collapse! Syllable!

After he shot two more in a row, no young dragons dared to approach him, and even their speed increased, making it difficult to aim...

At the moment the fire on the ship has been brought under control by the sailors, but almost all the sails and masts have been destroyed, and they have lost the ability to sail quickly.

"Alas!" Locke sighed fiercely and threw the rifted bow and arrow in his hand into the sea, "Let the other ships find a way to get closer to us..."

"Your Majesty... I'm afraid they won't be able to make it..."

Claire's words startled Locke, and he returned to the bow of the ship to look at the ships around him.

The merchant ships he hired had lost the ability to sail and were pushed away by the sea, and the fire on the ships had burned the superstructure clean.

Faintly, you can see the guards jumping into the sea, carrying the floating planks and drifting with the current.

Varian's Lionheart, a few hundred meters away from its position, surrounded a large number of young dragons on the Lion's Heart, but the ship was far more advanced than he had imagined. The sound of shelling was endless, and one by one the dragons that were hit fell directly from the sky and disappeared into the sea.

But the destroyers and frigates around it were all ignited by the dragon breath of the young dragons, and floated into the deep sea like a burning forest on the sea...

Alas... Still doesn't work?

"Claire, tell Charles to bring the wizards over. Open the portal, let's go and join Varian, and then we'll be in the Eastern Kingdoms together..."Locke looked guiltily at the slowly sinking Iron Guard floating in the water, "We, we can't save them, it's my decision-making that went wrong. I..."

Call! Call! Call!

There was another loud wind in the sky, and Locke looked up, and a huge dragon appeared in the sky...

The demonically curved horns on the skull are the size of a horse, and when opened, the wings are forty meters wide in diameter and nearly twenty meters long, like a floating city suspended in the sky, oppressing everyone...

"Onexia..."Locke stared angrily at the sky, his tightly clenched hands tensed!

———————————————

What am I going to do... What am I going to do...

Melly returned to the warehouse on the ground floor, shivering...

When the dragon, an extremely rare legendary creature, appeared in front of the ordinary Merry, the woman screamed and rushed all the way back to the bottom of the still open warehouse...

She got into the empty barrel she had rented again, hid herself inside, and closed the lid...

The sounds of fighting and the roars of monsters continued to sound outside, and Melly buried her head deep under her knees, her body trembling irregularly.

Thinking about what happened to her in the past two days, Melly felt that it was a nightmare. I shouldn't have promised Mr. Green in the first place, and I shouldn't have hoped to live the life of an upper-class person, otherwise how could I have encountered so many horrible things.

Melly hid here for a long time, until the sound outside gradually became quieter, and she gradually regained some of her senses. She decided to go out and have a look, to see if the old men of the alliance had been eaten by monsters... Or is it that the old man used a speargun to beat the monsters away...

The fruit in the lower cargo compartment was still bright and eye-catching, but Melly had no interest this time. Because she was horrified to find that in the ground floor cargo hold behind the door, there were several corpses of soldiers wearing the patterned robes of the royal guards of Stormwind City... Blood slowly soaked through the corpse and flowed nearby...

No wonder when I came in, this door was hidden!!

Melly covered her mouth as she cautiously exited the door of the ground floor warehouse away from the corpse.

At this moment, through the dim light in the corridor, she found bloody footprints in and out of each closed hatch, and then steadily stepped up to the top floor!!

Melly was a little overwhelmed, she didn't know what was going on, but she subconsciously felt that there was some conspiracy here against the lord of the alliance above...

Melly stood there blank, her mind blank, her limited experience unable to make a definitive judgment about what was happening now! Until she subconsciously wanted to hold the pendant on her chest again... Her blank, rusty mind seemed to be filled with lubricating oil and running at high speed.

Among the three masters who had just decided their own life and death, they all treated the young man with great respect. They even need to look at his face when it comes to who they work for. Secondly, what are these boats for? This is the ship hired by the king of Lordaeron! I'm traveling with His Majesty King Varian of Stormwind! She had just seen the Lion King's Heart, the ship belonging to His Majesty Varian, on the dock, not far from the sea!!

Could it be that he's from Lordaeron... King?!

This idea of piercing the source of her spirit immediately made her connect all her previous incomprehensions together!!

Yes! That's right! He must be the king of Lordaeron!!

Oh, my God! Melly! You've met a king! Still serving him?!

Melly's heart jumped! Even her excited body is trembling with pleasure!!

Isn't this the wealth you've always dreamed of?! What's more joyful than being in front of a king? Luckily! You are serving him!!

When Melly opened her eyes, she saw bloody footprints on the ground...

Not good! Then these people are hiding here, they must want to hurt that kind Majesty!!
