Section 41 Horse taming
Although the ladies of Erastro tried their best to delay their march, the Pegasus Stables was not infinitely far away, and after a journey that made William extremely tangled, the destination was still long overdue.
Perhaps to welcome the arrival of the Lady of Radiance, dozens of white pegasus suddenly rose into the air, howling across the sky, although the momentum was not very large, but it was also extremely eye-catching, and the "shape-shifting man" Flink took the opportunity to change his form out of everyone's sight.
William glanced at Frink, who turned into an ordinary guard, this girl looked very bad, if he changed the place and time, William would definitely pick him up on the spot, let him know that impersonating someone else is a sin, but not now. Seeing Flink walking by, William, who was not angry, moved his steps slightly, his left shoulder swayed slightly, and slightly touched Frink's shoulder, which seemed to ordinary people to be just a slight rub on the corner of his clothes, but it almost killed the transgender man.
As far as shapeshifters are concerned, their physical strength is naturally superior to that of humans, and Flink is the best among them, but it is his misfortune to run into William. When William's left shoulder hit Flink, the skin on his shoulder suddenly bounced, and the strength erupted like a latent volcano, and the transgender man suddenly heard the sound of the bowstring of the strong bow collapsing, but it was the shoulder tendon in William's body that was exerting force, and then Frink felt a sudden sharp pain in his left shoulder, and almost half of the cartilage of the shoulder (the bones of the shapeshifter are almost all soft and malleable cartilage) were shattered.
While injuries such as broken bones were nothing to shapeshifters, the intense pain was real. I have to say that Frink's endurance is still quite good, he only snorted heavily, glanced at William in surprise and anger, and staggered away, except that his steps were a little heavier, and his head and chest were lowered a little, and he could hardly see anything abnormal.
Occasionally, a few close bystanders only felt that William's shoulders seemed to swell a little, and when they blinked without noticing anything unusual, they forgot about it as an illusion and turned to watch the take-off horse take off.
The white pegasus circled in the sky a few times, and then slid slowly on the open grass, and finally stopped and stood at the edge of the stable in a small line, drawing continuous cheers from everyone. For the residents of Silvermoon City, although Pegasus is not uncommon, it is quite rare for a group of Pegasus to fly in the air, not to mention witnessing the birth of a new Pegasus Knight today.
Erastro did not notice William's small movements, she lifted her skirt lightly and walked to the open space in front of the Pegasus stables, and shouted to everyone and the Pegasus herd, "Today, here we will witness a new Peggsas knight, a brave and loyal warrior - William is not yet a citizen of Silvermoon City, but William is a warrior who fights for goodness and freedom."
Then she turned to William and said, "William, my warrior, please come forward. Are you willing to defend this land with your sword in order to fight evil and injustice?"
William stepped forward a little reluctantly, bent down slightly and said, "I do, Lady Supreme" and then stood in place and was silent, Erastrum winked at William a few times, but William pretended not to see the slightest reaction, and the scene was a little cold.
Erasdra glared at William, who was deliberately uncooperative, then turned around and said loudly, "Everyone get ready, release that special pegasus." Hehe, William, now you need to tame that little guy who is a little grumpy, be careful oh good luck, hehehe" Erastro's smile looked a little ill-intentioned, and regardless of William's reaction, Gu Zi withdrew from the open space.
A dozen spell guards, under the command of a middle-aged male mage, arranged a barrier enchantment that enveloped the entire stable, and everyone except William withdrew from the barrier. With a thunderous roar, like a tiger and leopard coming out of the forest, an inky black shadow broke through the carved wooden fence of the stable, hovering in the air and hitting the spell barrier a few times, only to find it insurmountable. The shadow slid down rapidly, running wildly on the ground covered with alfalfa grass.
This is the most majestic creature William has ever seen, a flying horse covered in pitch black as ink, different from the handsome appearance of ordinary flying horses, its head is short and round and vicious like a tiger and leopard, its neck is extremely long, the mane on the neck is rigid and fluffy like a needle, the whole body is like ink satin black silk, the muscles are protruding layer by layer, the ribs are winged, the steel feathers are as tight as iron sails, the abdomen of the pegasus is tight, the chest muscles are towering like mounds, the limbs are even, the hooves are firm and the toes are solid like ink iron, the pace is vigorous, the swift and divine horse, the long flowing tail is like water, and it is very cool. ,
Perhaps it was because he had not run freely for a long time, and the black pegasus ran and roared wildly between the grass and the sky, and its roar was like thunder, shocking the wilderness. The muscles of the whole body are like steel and iron bones, constantly trembling and jumping in the run, exuding endless publicity and vitality. Every time its horse's hooves are trampled, it is like the god of giants beating the earth, and countless alfalfa grass blades are flying in all directions, stirring up infinite power and beauty.
William stared blankly at the Pegasus in front of him:
What a divine fluid,
Flowing under that thick mane?
-- it expands indefinitely,
Squeezing the blood vessels, rough,
Eager and manic,
With terrifying force,
** And out,
A patch of blue rushing overhead (excerpt from the Song of Pegasus).
Not far behind him, Erasdra shouted, "William go up and make it obey you, if you can tame it, then Pegsas is yours"
William unconsciously glanced back at Erastro, and then moved his gaze to the black Pegasus again, his eyes burning like flames, and he had to admit that he had been fascinated by the strange beast in front of him.
Pegasus is a spiritual creature that is not easy to tame, and under normal circumstances, the tamer will prepare a magical bridle that will release the [Pacify Animal] spell on Pegasus every once in a while. And another spellcaster cooperates with him, blessing some spells similar to [Praise Art], [Children of the Earth], [Animal Communication] and other spells that help to tame the success rate on the tamer.
Before taming, the pegasus will generally be quiet and docile after blessing the [appease animal] spell, and at this time, the tamer should put on the bridle of the tamed object and ride it in time. Pegasus tempers become very irritable during taming, and the tamer is to stay on the back of an unsaddled horse for a period of time until Pegasus quiets down.
This is a very dangerous game, because Pegasus can fly, and it is extremely physical, can fly for more than ten hours in a row, and can do all kinds of extremely dangerous aerial maneuvers. It will do somersaults, spins, dives, and handstands in the sky, doing anything that can shake the tamer off. Once a normal tamer is out of horseback, death is likely to be his or her only fate, so a tamer who can perform [Featherfall] or [Levitation] is the best choice.
Because Pegasus has spirituality, taming Pegasus does not need to stay up until it is exhausted, the tamer only needs to get the approval of Pegasus to be successful, this process may be ten minutes, or more than ten hours, the length of time is not certain, and a series of spells blessed by the assistant can control this time period in a short time.
Of course, there are also more crude taming methods, such as forced taming such as strong charm and mental coercion, but this kind of taming method has many shortcomings, one of which is that Pegasus is likely to rebel.
Now William is facing a ** annoyance, Erasdra did not explain to him the precautions for taming Pegasus, nor did he prepare any magic brins, of course, with the current state of the black Pegasus, I am afraid that no one can put a bridle on it. William's auxiliary partner was not specially equipped, and only Erasdra stood not far away to temporarily take on this role, but she did not bless William or the black Pegasus with any spells.
William hesitated for a moment, then hurried into the field, stopping abruptly in the path of the black pegasus. The black Pegasus didn't have time to dodge for a while, so he jumped up directly, and his two huge front hooves stepped fiercely on William's chest, and the dangerous aggressive action of the Pegasus caused the surrounding viewers to exclaim in surprise, and their eyes widened nervously.
In the face of the heavy hooves coming to him, William did not dodge or dodge, his left foot retreated half a step, and the body of the horse was bent as if a big bow was bent and accumulated, and the two forearms were raised to meet it, instantly holding the forelimbs of the Pegasus. William shouted loudly, like thunder on the ground, his whole body turned like a python, and his strength dragged and thrown, and he threw the huge black Pegasus out sideways with extreme brutality.
William's whole body was like a shadow leaning over, following the figure of the black Pegasus. Pegasus was not without resistance, his wings spread out, his huge body immediately regained his balance, and his left wing swept flat and slammed towards William's face. William's body fluttered up, and it happened to dodge the sweep of Pegasus's left wing, and at the same time, he slapped his palm on the transverse bone of his wing, and a dark energy rushed into Pegasus's wing. Pegasus's muscles to control the movements of the left wing were stimulated, and he shuddered involuntarily, and the next vertical beat action could no longer be performed, and because the left wing lost control, the black Pegasus had to calm the right wing, and the four hooves under his feet stepped again and again to maintain his balance, and the speed naturally slowed down.
William took the opportunity to jump on the back of the black Pegasus, grabbed the large spine bone in front of the Pegasus's neck with his left hand like pincers, and grabbed the horse's mane with his right hand. The sockets of his legs stuck backwards, and they actually stuck the base of Pegasus's wings, and at the same time, the leg muscles continued to bounce, constantly hitting the traction muscles between the rib wings. The black Pegasus noticed that a human had landed on its back, and immediately began to go berserk, trying to flap its wings off the ground, but due to William's legs, the wings could not use all their strength, and could not provide enough power for the Pegasus to take off.
The black Pegasus roared and ran wildly, at this time it could neither spread its wings and fly, nor could it fold its wings and roll on the ground to get out of the control of the horse trainer, so it could only run helplessly, the more it ran, the more irritable the black Pegasus's temper became, and finally it suddenly turned its head, opened its mouth and bit William on its back.
Facing the bite of the horse's head, William released the horsemane with his right hand, and suddenly held it on the lower lip of the black Pegasus, and there was a "rattle", but it was the sound of the upper and lower incisors of the Pegasus. William then loosened his legs and left hand, his right arm wrapped around Pegasus' neck, his left hand assisted in the horizontal push, his feet touched the ground and fell suddenly, the whole Pegasus was raised by William again, an earth-shattering big smashing pose, the black Pegasus was smashed directly on the grass with all four feet facing the sky, struggling with four hooves and wings and neighing.
