Chapter 1378: The Dragon's Egg is Lost
According to common sense, the treasures of each of the five dragons can only be driven by the dragon king who has the power to protect them.
This is one of the reasons why Deathwing confidently handed over the Shadow Flame Seed to Nefarian for safekeeping, on the premise that it was difficult to protect itself.
Because he knew that in the absence of protective power, Nefarian would not be able to use this treasure freely, and naturally he would not become a threat to himself.
However......
Deathwing admits that he has always been wary of Nefarian, but that is only an instinctive warning as a clan leader against his subordinates who might threaten him.
This set of rules does not only apply to animal races, but the kings of the great kingdoms tend to be wary of their heirs, fearing that they will forcibly seize power before they even want to abdicate the throne.
What I don't give you, you can't rob.
Deathwing and Nefarian share philosophical differences on a number of issues.
But compared to the muddled Onexia, Nefarian has always been deferential to Deathwing when it comes to principles.
Deathwing had no idea that Nefarian, whose hands were stained with the blood of a four-colored dragon, would betray him and join the Temple of Dragon's Sleep, which tried to kill him as soon as possible.
Strictly speaking, Nefarian did not take refuge in the Temple of Dragon's Sleep, but in the broader camp of the Guardians of Azeroth, and the Dragons were only one of the forces under this big concept.
The King of the Black Dragons had already betrayed, and before he could kill Deathwing to reclaim the power of the Earth's Guardianship, none of the Black Dragons could activate the Shadow Flame Seed except for Deathwing himself.
However, the power of the black dragon's earth protection was also given by the Titans after all.
Unlike Nozdorm, who is a master of the power of time guardianship, Deathwing's power is not unique to Deathwing, and Azadas can be used as his replacement to help Sarean activate the Shadow Flame Seed.
Before leaving Ulduar last time, Azadas also made a point of mentioning that if there is any problem that cannot be solved, you can go to Ulduar at any time to ask him for help.
For a long time, since Saljan had not yet officially awakened the power of the earth, the prop, nicknamed the Titan Learning Machine, had been kept and used by Onexia.
Not to mention, Onexia, who has always been lazy, has been relatively diligent lately, and she has really learned a lot of useful things from Azadas's accumulated tens of thousands of years of experience in using the power of the land.
Onexia was an expert at manipulating the power of the land, and Azadas's experience was only a fill-in-the-dark for her, and it didn't take long for her to get that knowledge together.
Sarjan's situation is completely different from that of Onexia, who must slowly grasp the power of the land from scratch, which is bound to take a long time.
After retrieving the Titan Learning Machine from Onexia, Sarean plans to make another trip to Ulduar as soon as possible.
However, before Sarren could leave, Nefarian, who was also planning to leave here and return to Blackwing's Lair, suddenly stopped him.
"Sarean, I know you and Onexia want to know the whereabouts of the pure dragon eggs that Saberian kept."
Speaking of this topic, Sarjan and Onexia, who had just fought all night, immediately put away their lazy expressions and looked solemnly at Nefarian, whose faces were as usual.
"I'm in a hurry and want to go back early, so I'll just say it."
Now that they have signed a cooperation contract with each other, Nefarian no longer sells it, and tells the information he knows straight to the point.
"As far as I know, Saberian's loyalty to Deathwing...... Like me, it's just a good camouflage on the surface. ”
Nefarian sneered: "Our beloved father went completely insane more than 10,000 years ago, who would want to willingly follow such a madman?" ”
"Me, Onexia, Saberian, and all of Deathwing's direct descendants have their own plans behind them."
Nefarian glanced at Onexia, who was holding Sarren's arm, with a smile: "Because of the unexpected reunion with her mother and your great help, Onexia, who was already not deep, was out of the sea of misery early...... To be honest, I've always admired her. ”
"Saberian and I have done so much against our conscience to win Deathwing's trust that we can't turn back."
"I chose to bury my mistake in the study of colorful dragons, and Saberian planned to flee to Draenor with those dragon eggs, and take advantage of the closure of the dark door to re-establish a new army of black dragons in that distant world."
"It's a pity." Nefarian said sarcastically: "Saberi's peace of mind is higher than the sky, but his life is thinner than paper, he doesn't have the ability to turn things around after all." ”
"Saberian ......"
Sallian hesitated, but told Nefarian about the cause and consequences of his death.
Knowing the full picture, Nefarian shook his head disapprerovingly.
"As expected, I already knew that he was not that material, and I can only say that he is ambitious."
Onexia pondered for a moment before looking up at Nefarian with a little surprise: "What do you mean......"
Nefarian did not shy away from giving an affirmative reply: "At this point, you should know what I said. ”
"If nothing else, the batch of pure black dragon eggs that were hidden by Saberian should still be sealed somewhere in Draenor, but I don't know exactly where they are."
"Draenor......" Salaan nodded thoughtfully, "I see, it just so happens that I have a plan to go to Draenor in the future, so let's look carefully when the time comes." ”
After sending off Nefarian and Yinas, who was responsible for monitoring and protecting him, Sarlian opened the portal and sent Julian and Verreth back to Silvermoon City, leaving Valera and Onexia to follow.
After learning the information provided by Nefarian from Salian and Onexia, Valeera, who had personally participated in the melee in Gollond, lowered her head and thought for a while.
"In this case, there is a high probability that the dragon eggs should be kept in Gollond...... Somewhere in the Blade's Edge now? ”
At the sound of this, Onexia's delicate black eyebrows furrowed.
"Due to the effects of the evil energy pollution, Gollund has undergone massive geological changes."
"Although it will not completely sink into the sea like the Alanka Peak Forest, the change in the environment is really not small, dragon egg...... It won't be damaged in the process of geological changes, right? ”
This is also a concern for Sarenan.
Parts of southern Gorlund and northern Talador forests were flooded with seawater and evolved into what is now the Zanga Marshes.
At the same time, the Gollund mainland has also formed a larger and larger difference in the terrain and elevation, which has become the current Blade Mountain.
Sarayan wasn't sure if Saberian had actually sealed the eggs in Gollund, and if so, it would be difficult for them not to be affected by the massive geological changes.
And this is obviously a heavy blow to Cinestra, who is eager to revive the Black Dragon.
"Don't worry."
Sarjan rubbed her eyebrows and patted the sad Onexia on the head comfortingly.
"According to my speculation, it is indeed quite possible for Saberian to choose Gorlund, but there is another area that is also highly probable, given the environmental factors."
"Hoo ......"
Onexia rubbed her cheeks vigorously, trying to sort out the mess in her head.
"Where?"
"Frostfire Ridge."
"As you know, there are a large number of volcanoes scattered in the Frost Fire Ridge area, and it is the most suitable place for the black dragon who has the power of the earth to hatch dragon eggs. ”
"Besides, Saberian is not stupid, Gorrond has a powerful demigod-level indigenous creature like Gorron, if you were him, would you transfer the dragon egg to such a dangerous frontline position before making sure to take Gorrond?"
Onexia's eyes lit up when she heard this: "You say that...... It does make sense. ”
Sarian smiled and said, "I will send someone to inform Solas and entrust the undead of free will to search around the various volcanoes in Frostfire Ridge first. ”
"When we're done with some of the troubles on Azeroth, we'll go to Draenor ourselves."
"No matter what the final outcome of those dragon eggs is, we still have to witness it with our own eyes, otherwise we won't be able to explain it to our mother-in-law."
