Chapter 263 Onyxia's luxury mounts available day and night
Richard reforged Kael'thas's heirloom sword, Flame Claw, and added Titanium. The power of the reforged Flame Claw was increased to a higher level, reaching the sub-artifact level.

With this weapon, and the fact that Kael'thas had gained a lot in breathing and meditation skills during this period, his strength had already surpassed that of Arthas.

With Kael'thas in charge, plus a few legendary high elf mages, there will be no problem in wiping out the Undead Scourge.

Richard decided to go to the southern continent and find a mount. After all, he was now a great arcanist, and every time he went out, he either used teleportation spells or flight spells, which did not have the aura of a big boss at all, so he planned to get a mount.

The mounts of the high elves are dragon eagles, chocobos, and Kael'thas's phoenix. Richard didn't like the dragon eagles and chocobos, because the phoenix mount is actually an arcane creature created by magic.

Richard has studied this spell. The summoned phoenix is ​​as powerful as a high-level fire elemental wizard. The summoning consumes a nine-ring spell slot. It can exist permanently and the summoning can also be canceled. The spell slot will be returned after the summoning is canceled. Overall, it is a bit useless.

Of course, the phoenix is ​​really beautiful. Its sacred flames leave golden shadows in the sky when it flies, which is very beautiful, but it cannot be fought.

So Richard planned to capture a few giant dragons. Of course, the dragons could not only be kept as pets and thrown into ecological parks to reproduce, but their blood could also be used in dragon blood baptism ceremonies.

Although the dragons in Azeroth are somewhat different from those in Motera, they are both true dragons, and the dragon blood baptism ceremony is also true dragon level.

The levels of the five guardian dragons have even reached the demigod level. If they know how to deify themselves, they can use the deification ceremony to be promoted to gods.

In the beginning, the Titans bestowed divine power upon the five guardian dragons. Each of them possessed authority and divinity. The dragons of their respective races were their believers. As long as they condensed their divine nature and ignited the divine fire, they could become gods.

It's a pity that there has never been a belief in gods in Azeroth. The most common gods are the Titans and the Old Gods. The guardian dragons don't know the ceremony of deification of the gods.

Therefore, even at the critical moment, these guardian dragons could not move forward.

The deification ceremony in the world of Motera is no secret, but there are only a few who are capable of deifying. After all, the religious beliefs in that place have been basically divided up, and there are few vacant priesthoods. The most important things are the godhead and divinity.

The godhead can go to the abyss to snatch it from the demon lord or condense the rules by itself, but the divinity can only go to ancient evil things, evil spirits, demon lords, devil lords or evil gods.

After the godhood is condensed, the divine nature is established, and the church is established, a grand ceremony of deification is held, the divine fire is lit, the throne is lifted high, and it rises to the sky. Only after completing these can it be considered a true god. Next, you need to establish your own kingdom of God.

The most recent deification ceremony in the world of Motera was more than two thousand years ago, during the Holy Grail War, when sacrifices condensed a godhead. After the victory of the champion knight at that time, with the help of the Lord of Dawn, he became his subordinate god [God of Knights], a weak god, and later promoted to a weaker god.

His duties are [Knight], [Brave], [Fighting], [Justice], etc. Of course, as can be seen from his name, his main duty is Knight.

It's not that he doesn't want to use more powerful priesthoods, such as [Combat] and [Justice], but these two fields are already occupied by bigwigs. The [Combat] priesthood is occupied by the war pantheon. [Justice] also has a god of justice, and there are many gods who have the [Justice] priesthood.

It is very difficult to deify Motera, but Azeroth does not have so many constraints. However, Richard does not intend to deify himself. He accumulates divinity in order to become a being similar to the ancient gods.

The ancient gods did not need faith, divinity, or priesthood. Therefore, the restrictions on the gods of faith were invalid for the ancient gods.

After believing in the gods and completing the canonization, they are basically locked up in the kingdom of God. Even when they go out, they can only use their avatars to walk. They are called gods, but they are more like being in prison. Richard doesn't want to live like this.

Richard left the High Elf army, gave Kael'thas a communication stone, and told him to ask for help if he had any problems he couldn't solve, and then flew directly to the south of the continent.

His target was Onyxia, the daughter of the black dragon king Deathwing Neltharion. She had a pure bloodline and was quite powerful, so she was very suitable to be used as a mount. She could be ridden during the day and at night, and she was durable enough. She was definitely a good mount.

At this time, Onyxia was serving as the Countess in Stormwind City, using magic to play with the nobles and sow discord. And the nobles in Stormwind City were not good people either. It can be said that they had none of the so-called noble virtues, but all kinds of shortcomings.

There was luxury, cruelty, ignorance, greed, corruption, etc., and Onyxia pushed it forward. Then the whole Stormwind City became more and more corrupt.

It's just that Onyxia thinks she can control everything, but she doesn't know that what this world really values ​​is strength. She is now like a fish in water in Stormwind's upper class society, but if she is exposed, she will be finished.

Richard had no good feelings towards Stormwind City. He had the impression that this country was a typical example of ingratitude. The climate in the southern continent was milder and more humid. The moisture brought by the sea breeze brought abundant rainfall, agriculture was very developed, and the climate was warm like spring, suitable for human habitation.

Although Stormwind was breached in the first orc invasion, the Alliance counterattacked and defeated the orcs in the second invasion. Then the nobles and refugees of Stormwind returned here and rebuilt Stormwind.

In order to repair their homes, they hired a large number of workers and stonemason union members to rebuild a taller and more majestic stone fortress siege city on the ruins of Stormwind.

As a result, after the city was built, the powerful people in Stormwind began to default on their debts, and this incident also led to the transformation of the Stonemasons Guild into the Defias Brotherhood.

The Stonemasons Guild is composed of a group of workers who also need to eat. So they worked so hard to build a magnificent Stormwind City for the Stormwind Kingdom. But after it was completed, Stormwind City actually refused to pay.

The workers in the Stonemasons Union were so honest that they didn't ask them to pay part of the construction fee first, and then pay the other half after the construction was halfway done. They only thought about asking for money after the construction was completed.

Unexpectedly, the powerful people in Stormwind started to play tricks, using various excuses to delay the payment, and were unwilling to pay the workers their hard-earned money. The black dragon princess also played a role in fueling the situation.

The stonemasons were naturally very dissatisfied and took the signed contract to Stormwind to demand money. As a result, Stormwind simply refused to pay and refused to acknowledge it.

As a result, the dispute between the two sides started from financial disputes and escalated into an armed conflict.

One side thought that as long as the creditors no longer existed, they would not have to pay back the money. The other side saw that these people refused to pay back the debts and wanted to kill them, so they naturally would not surrender and turned around to start the armed road to demanding wages.

But the Stonemasons Guild is just a group of stonemasons after all, how can it compare to the army of Stormwind? Therefore, the Stonemasons Guild has always been at a disadvantage, and they don't know what a people's war is, so the final result is definitely to be suppressed. After several teleportations, Richard corrected the coordinates and finally arrived near Stormwind. Richard found a caravan nearby, then used suggestion to join the caravan, and followed the caravan into Stormwind.

Stormwind City was built tall and majestic, very imposing. But above the city gate hung a wooden cage, and inside the cage was a bloody head.

There are not many pedestrians on the street, and most of them are in a hurry. These people are all struggling for their lives.

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound at the street corner, and a gorgeous carriage drove quickly from the street. People around dodged. Richard had a flash of inspiration, and disappeared from the street in the next second.

"Wasn't there someone here just now? Why did he suddenly disappear?"

"Maybe my eyes are blurry." The pedestrian shook his head slightly and then left in a hurry.

After the carriage left, pedestrians began to appear on the street again.

Richard's figure appeared silently in the carriage. There was a middle-aged man in the carriage. Richard's sudden appearance scared him.

"亻" Just when he wanted to shout, he suddenly froze.

Richard tapped his finger lightly, and a faint blue light flashed in his eyes, and then the nobles in front of him became dull. Richard soon found what he wanted, the map of Stormwind City, and the news about Countess Katrana.

In addition to this information, Richard also found a lot of other information from his memory. Not long ago, King Varian took a group of soldiers out of the city to hunt, and then suddenly went to the Death Mine, led the army to wipe out the Defias Brotherhood, and killed its leader Van Cleef.

Then he hung VanCleef's head at the gate of Stormwind City. In order to celebrate the annihilation of the Defias Brotherhood and revenge for the Queen, Varian held a grand party two days ago.

After reading the memory, Richard did not stop and directly erased his memory of this period of time, making him fall asleep. Then he used teleportation to come to the vicinity of Countess Katrina's mansion.

Then Richard used the invisibility spell to enter the mansion. Katrina's location was easy to find. As a dragon, even if she used the transformation spell and turned into a human, the energy in her body was still far beyond that of ordinary humans.

In Richard's spiritual perception, there happened to be another life energy body in this mansion that was like a volcano, and compared with it, other life energies were like fireflies.

Richard naturally knew about such a huge gap. This time he found the real culprit and walked straight in.

In the luxurious room, Onyxia was lazily lying on a large velvet bed, and the magic crystal lamp on the ceiling released a soft light. Under the light, the whole room was glittering. The walls of the room and various furniture were inlaid with a large number of gems, which were dazzling to the eyes.

But for Onyxia, she just likes this style. Gold and gems are the favorites of dragons, but the countess was not in a good mood at this time.

"The Defias Brotherhood was wiped out by Varian. Why didn't these idiots flee but had to fight the regular army head-on? If they had just hidden in the forests, would Varian have gone all over the mountains to catch them? They had to guard the mines stubbornly, and now they have been caught in one fell swoop."

"I have been planning for so long in vain!"

"Who!" Onyxia stared at the figure that suddenly appeared.

"Are you the one who planned all this?" Richard asked the charming countess in front of him. It must be said that the Black Dragon Princess was indeed beautiful. At this moment, she was wearing a loose silk dress. She was tall, with fair skin, and a well-proportioned figure. Her delicate face was like a blooming poppy, beautiful and dangerous.

"Who are you? Did Varian send you?" Onyxia approached Richard with graceful steps. As she walked, her long beautiful legs were faintly visible under her skirt. It must be said that she knew how to grasp people's hearts, and before she knew it, she was two meters away from Richard.

Richard said: "Varian? Who is he?"

"Really?" Onyxia's eyes flashed with a hint of success, and then she said to Richard: "I'll give you a piece of advice. It's no good to be too confident."

After she finished speaking, she immediately grabbed Richard's arm, and then used her arm to exert force in an attempt to completely control Richard. However, the smile on her face had not yet faded, and she became stunned in an instant. No matter how hard she tried, she could not move Richard's arm at all.

"If I don't do this, how could you come to me?" Richard looked at Onyxia jokingly, and then instantly pulled her into the mirror space.

"Who are you?" Magic power surged in Onyxia's body, and the spell was about to take shape in an instant.

As a result, the next second, a flash of light appeared, and Onyxia's spell dissipated instantly. Then, golden runes instantly bound her. The golden runes fell on her and sank directly into her body.

Richard smiled and loosened his arms. Having gained her freedom, Onyxia immediately wanted to cast a spell, but no matter how she mobilized her magic power, she couldn't cast a single spell.

Seeing this situation, Onyxia didn't care about anything else. The magic power surged in her body, and she instantly transformed from a human beauty into a huge black dragon.

The black dragon was more than thirty meters long and slender. As soon as it appeared, it rushed towards Richard. But before she could make any move, a sharp pain from her soul suddenly appeared. Onyxia screamed and fell directly from the sky.

"How does the soul shackles feel?" Richard came to the front of the dragon. Onyxia's huge body was shaking constantly, her eyes were dull, and her limbs were twitching unconsciously. The whole dragon seemed to be broken.

It took Onyxia a long time to recover, and she looked at Richard with eyes full of fear.
