Chapter 268: The Black Dragon Princess Reported Someone for Hanging
In the past, when we were chatting, David mentioned that he especially wanted to brush a reins of Onexia, but he just didn't get it.
Later, he established the Winter Village, and he also mentioned that it would be more appropriate if he had a few dragons in this place.
But those were all jokes, and David didn't expect Laura to bring up these things at this time.
"You mean to catch a few black dragons and return to Winterfell?"
"Maybe there's a chance to make up for your past regrets!"
"I don't think it's likely!"
How to make up for regrets? Do you want to just take Onexia back as a mount? This female black dragon should not be willing to be a human mount, even if Onexia agrees, David is worried that this black dragon will run into Winterfell to do something.
Since Deathwing's brain was out of order, few of the Black Dragons in the entire clan had their brains normal, and even if there was some special means to control Onexia, David was worried that the she-dragon would suddenly go crazy.
"Compared to that female dragon, it's better to catch a few young dragons and raise them...... Speaking of which, it seems like a good idea to catch a pet?"
Entering the mine with Laura, and wandering around for a while, David found the correct "quest entrance".
It's a real world, and naturally there are no giant whirlpool dungeon gates, and the inside of the mine is bigger and more complex than in the game, so the Death Mine is well hidden, and it took David a while to find the right path.
As for how do you know that you are not looking for the wrong way?
Because as David and Laura continue to go deeper, the two of them gradually can't see the ordinary Defia bandits, and more and more dragonmen disguised as mages and warriors appear in front of the two, and when the situation is not good, these dragonmen will simply reveal their true colors.
Davy watched more and more dragonmen appear, and after going on for a while, he knew he wasn't on the wrong path when he even saw the dragonmen who were not disguised in any way, and the black young dragons that flapped their wings and spat fireballs at them.
"It's hard, I tried it just now, and these young dragons can't "communicate" at all."
Laura's bow and arrows barely stopped, each arrow could destroy an enemy, and after clearing a group of enemies, she could properly recover the arrows, which made her have no worries about running out of arrows to use.
Actually, even if the arrows run out, Lara doesn't have to worry, she has other weapons in her storage space.
David is a hunter of holy light in one hand and a hammer of judgment in the other, and the spear has been put away by him, which is not conducive to the use of the spear in the environment of mines and caves.
Of course, with David's current strength, even if he was empty-handed, he could easily deal with the group of dragonmen in front of him, and these Onexia's subordinates could not pose a threat to him at all, and he could even use these dragonmen to test the various tricks he thought of temporarily.
"Cracked Feet!"
Kicking a larger, muscular dragonman against the wall, David almost kicked the dragonman into the mud before retracting his right foot, which still glowed with golden light.
And just when he was about to say something to Laura, he suddenly found an enemy in a stealth state.
"Squat!"
Laura's movements were fast, she had absolute trust in David, and she did so directly after hearing the reminder.
Almost at the same time as Laura crouched down, a large cloud of holy light was released from David's outstretched left palm, directly blasting the barely visible figure behind Laura away.
"What's this trick called?"
Laura turned around and glanced at the figure who had been knocked out, not paying much attention to the person's situation, but wondering who David had just imitated.
"It's nothing, it's just to condense the light into a ball and release it!" If you have to choose a name, it can be called "Holy Light Impact", and of course it can be named Holy Light Wave Fist.
David frowned, and before Laura could ask, he stomped his foot on the ground.
Dedication!
this
The paladins prefer to use the group attack skill, and David is also very proficient in using it, which has a particularly good effect against enemies in a stealth state.
Sure enough, after David used his devotion to infuse the ground beneath his feet, filling the area centered around him with holy light, the stealth enemy could no longer maintain his stealth state.
They had to show their size, and to David's surprise, they all looked like Edwin Van Cleef.
「……」
David now knew why Varian and MI7 couldn't find any useful information, and with an unknown number of Edwin Van Cleeff in the Wild West, it was easy for Van Cleef to mislead the investigators and hide more important information beneath the surface.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
While several Van Cleeffs were forced to show their bodies, Laura had already put away her bow and arrows, took out two piano pistols, and frantically poured ammunition at the fake Van Cleef beside her.
The magazines made by Pierre Newton ensured that the two silver piano pistols had enough sustained firepower, and with the power of powerful bullets, the imposter Van Cleef was quickly beaten to shredded flesh and spread unevenly on the floor of the mine.
The lucky one who was not taken care of by Laura still didn't have a chance to get close to Laura, he was accurately shot in the head by the Avenger's hammer thrown by David, and fell to the ground neatly, although one leg was still twitching, but this guy was indeed dead.
"Keep going, I don't think we're far from the goal."
He didn't know if Varian was really here, but he felt that there were so many black dragons gathered inside the Death Mine, and even if he couldn't see Varian, he would be able to find some useful clues.
The truth was similar to what David had judged, and after entering the deepest part of the Death Mine, he met Varian here.
Slightly surprisingly, there were actually two Varians in front of them.
Two identical-looking Varians stood in the middle of a huge magic circle that emitted a strong arcane light, and these lights were not only dazzling, but also trapped the two Varians in the magic circle, making it impossible for them to leave the magic circle's range.
David observed carefully for a moment, although he didn't know much about arcane magic, he was able to accurately find the energy node, he only needed to destroy the energy node that ensured the maintenance of the magic array, and naturally the magic array could stop working.
After spotting a few positions, David directly threw out the Hammer of Judgment, which contained the power of a huge amount of holy light, bounced around accurately on several energy nodes, and flew back into David's hands after completing all this.
As important energy nodes were destroyed, the arcane brilliance gradually faded until it disappeared, and the two Varians trapped in the magic circle magically merged into one Varian.
Looking at Varian who had fainted in front of him, David released a huge amount of holy light, restored him to his best state, and successfully woke him up.
"David?" Varian opened his eyes and looked at David in front of him, a little confused, as if he couldn't figure out what was going on: "I'm ...... Where?"
"It's me, you're in the depths of the Mine of Death right now, what's the last thing you remember?"
"I remember...... I remember as if I was investigating the Brotherhood of Defia in the Wild West...... Hiss~" Varian felt a throbbing pain in his head, accompanied by a large number of images that seemed to be fragments: "I was caught? It's Onexia...... Damn the black dragon, she seems to have cast some kind of spell on me."
With David's continuous use of Holy Light Healing, and Varian's constant thoughts and memories in pain, things were finally cleared.
Varian was indeed captured by the black dragon Onexia, and the group of fake Van Cleeff and the increasingly rampant Defia Brotherhood were also the work of Onexia.
Even, Onexia did not shy away from telling Varian about her plan:
She plans to use magic to split Varian into two people, one of whom will be cowardice
A combination of cowardly, timid, hesitant and other personalities, this Varian will also indulge in pleasure and dislike affairs.
A bold and shrewd personality will concentrate in another body.
All Onexia has to do is send the timid and cowardly Varian back to Stormwind, and another shrewd and tough Varian will be killed outright.
However, Onexia underestimated Varian's mental will, and the splitting magic could not completely divide Varian into two people at once, so she locked Varian in the magic circle, hoping to wear down Varian's will through time, and wait until his mental will completely collapsed and could no longer resist the splitting magic, and then continue to carry out her plan.
Varian wasn't in his right mind just now, and he couldn't remember some things, just because he was affected by magic.
Just when Varian was already unable to resist the effects of magic and was about to split into two people completely. David appeared here and destroyed the magic circle, causing Onexia's plan to fail completely.
With his mind sorted out and his mind gradually returning to normal, Varian told the story and thanked David.
"More on that later!"
David looked up at a black-haired woman in a fuchsia robe, staring at him angrily.
"There are more important issues to be solved first."
"Despicable Black Dragon!" Varian also saw the humanoid Onexia, and immediately got up and reached out to touch his waist, but unfortunately felt empty, and then looked left and right, looking for two weapons to take advantage of.
Before Varian could find a suitable weapon, Onexia, who was originally full of anger and did not hide his killing intent, suddenly changed his face after confronting David for two seconds, and directly cast a teleportation spell and disappeared from everyone. Z.br>
「???」
Looking at the location where Onexia disappeared, David was full of question marks, completely unable to understand why Onexia suddenly ran away?
"Did she find out about my hanging?"
