Age of Empires From Scratch

When chatting before, David mentioned that he wanted to brush a rein of Onyxia, but he just didn't get it.

Later, Cold Winter Village was established, and he also mentioned that it would be more appropriate if there were a few dragons in his place.

But those were all jokes and gossips, and David didn't expect Laura to mention these things at this time.

"You mean to catch a few black dragons and bring them back to Winter City?"

"Maybe there is a chance to make up for your past regrets!"

"I don't think it's very likely!"

How to make up for regrets? Just take Onyxia back as a mount? This female black dragon should not be willing to be a human mount. Even if Onyxia agreed, David was worried that this black dragon would go to Winter City to cause trouble.

Ever since Deathwing's brain became abnormal, few of the entire black dragon clan had normal brains. Even if there were some special means to control Onyxia, David was worried that the female dragon would suddenly go crazy.

"Compared to the female dragon, it's better to catch a few young dragons and raise them... Speaking of which, it seems good to catch a pet?"

Entering the mine with Laura, after wandering around for a while, David found the correct 'instance entrance'.

This is a real world. Naturally, there is no huge whirlpool-like dungeon gate, and the inside of the mine is bigger and more complicated than in the game, so the death mine is well hidden. It took David a little time to find the right path.

As for how to judge that he did not find the wrong path?

Because as David and Laura continued to go deeper, they gradually lost sight of ordinary Defias robbers, and more and more dragonmen disguised as mages and warriors appeared in front of them. These dragon people will show their true colors simply and neatly.

David watched more and more dragonmen appear. After moving on for a while, he even saw the dragonmen without any camouflage, and the black young dragon flapping its wings and spitting fireballs to attack him. He knew that he hadn't Wrong way.

"It's hard. I tried it just now. These young dragons can't 'communicate' at all."

The bow and arrow in Laura's hand almost never stops, each arrow can destroy an enemy, and after clearing out a group of enemies, she can properly recycle the arrows, which makes her not worry about having no arrows to use.

In fact, don’t worry even if all the arrows shoot Laura, she still has other weapons in her storage space.

David is the Hammer of Judgment in one hand and the Hunter in the other hand. He has already put away the long spear. In environments such as mines and caves, it is not conducive to the use of long spears.

Of course, with David's current strength, even if he is empty-handed, he can easily take care of the group of dragonmen in front of him. These Onyxia's men can't pose a threat to him at all. He can even use these dragonmen to test himself All kinds of tricks that come to mind.

"Hundred Cracked Feet!"

Kicking a bigger and stronger dragon man against the wall, David almost kicked the dragon man into mud before retracting his right foot, which was still emitting golden light.

And just when he was about to say something to Laura, he suddenly found the enemy in stealth state.

"Squat down!"

Laura moved very quickly. She had absolute trust in David, and she followed the reminder directly.

Almost at the same time as Laura squatted down, David released a large ball of holy light from his open left palm, directly blasting the almost invisible figure behind Laura flying.

"What is this trick called?"

Laura turned around and glanced at the figure who was knocked out, and didn't pay too much attention to the situation of that person. Instead, she was curious about who David imitated just now?

"This move is nothing but to condense the holy light into a ball and release it!" If it had to be named, it could be called 'Holy Light Shock', of course it could also be called the Holy Light Wave Fist.

David frowned, and immediately stepped on the ground without waiting for Laura to ask.

dedication!

This is a group attack skill that paladins prefer to use, and David is also very proficient in using it. This technique has a particularly good effect on enemies who are in a stealth state.

Sure enough, after David used consecration to pour holy light into the ground under his feet, making the area centered on him full of holy light, the stealthy enemies could no longer maintain the stealth state.

They had to show their figures, and to David's surprise, they all looked like Edwin VanCleef.

"..."

David now knows why Varian and SI7 can't find any useful information. There are countless Edwin Van Cleefs in Westfall. Such a large number of Van Cleefs can easily mislead the investigators. Keep more important information hidden beneath the surface.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

While several Van Cleefs were forced to reveal their figures, Laura put away her bow and arrows, took out two piano pistols, and frantically poured ammunition at the fake Van Cleefs beside her.

The magazines made by Pierre Newton ensured that the two silver piano pistols had enough continuous firepower output. Coupled with the power of the powerful bullets, this group of counterfeit Van Cleef was quickly beaten to pieces. , not evenly smeared on the ground of the mine.

The lucky one who was not taken care of by Laura still had no chance to get close to Laura. He was headshot accurately by the Avenger's Hammer thrown by David, and fell to the ground neatly, although one leg was still twitching. , but this guy is indeed dead.

"Keep going, I don't think it's too 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 Deadmines, even if he couldn't see Varian, he could still find some useful clues.

The facts are similar to what David judged. After entering the deepest part of the Deadmines, he really saw Varian here.

It was a little surprising that there were actually two Varians in front of him.

Two Varians who looked exactly the same stood in a huge magic circle, and the magic circle exuded a strong arcane light, and these lights were not only dazzling, but also trapped the two Varians in the magic circle, making them They couldn't leave the range of the magic circle.

David observed carefully for a while. Although he didn't know much about arcane magic, he was able to accurately find the energy nodes. He only needed to destroy the energy nodes that ensured the maintenance of the magic circle, and naturally the magic circle would stop working. .

After pinpointing a few positions, David threw out the hammer of judgment directly. The hammer of judgment, which contained a huge power of holy light, bounced accurately on several energy nodes, and flew away after completing all this. Back to David's hands.

With the destruction of important energy nodes, the arcane brilliance gradually faded until it disappeared, and the two Varians trapped in the magic circle also miraculously merged into one Varian.

Looking at Varian who was fainted in front of him, David released a huge amount of holy light again, restoring him to his best condition, and successfully awakening him.

"David?" Varian opened his eyes and looked at David in front of him in a daze, as if he didn't know what was going on: "Where am I...?"

"It's me, you are now in the depths of the dead mine, what is the last thing you remember?"

"I remember... I remember that I seemed to be investigating the Defias Brotherhood in Westfall... hiss~" Varian felt a throbbing pain in his head, accompanied by a lot of pictures that seemed to be fragments : "I was arrested? It's Onyxia...Damn black dragon, she seems to have cast some kind of spell on me."

With David's continuous use of holy light treatment, and Varian's constant pain of thinking and recalling, he finally figured things out.

Varian was indeed captured here by the black dragon Onyxia, and the group of fake Van Cleef and the increasingly rampant Defias Brotherhood were also written by Onyxia.

Even Onyxia did not shy away from telling Varian about her plan:

She plans to use magic to split Varian into two people. One of Varian will be a combination of cowardice, timidity, and hesitation. This Varian will also indulge in pleasure and dislike dealing with affairs.

And the courageous, shrewd and powerful personality will be concentrated in another body.

What Onyxia has to do is to send the cowardly Varian back to Stormwind City, and the other shrewd and powerful Varian will be killed directly.

But Onyxia underestimated Varian's spiritual will, and the split magic couldn't completely split Varian into two people immediately, so she locked Varian in the magic circle, trying to kill Varian through time Ann's will, wait until his spiritual will completely collapses and can no longer resist the division magic, and then continue to implement his plan.

Varian was not clear-headed just now, and he couldn't remember some things because he was affected by magic.

Just when Varian was gradually unable to resist the influence of magic, he was about to split into two completely. David appeared here and destroyed the magic circle, making Onyxia's plan a complete failure.

Varian, who had sorted it out and gradually returned to normal, explained the cause and effect, and expressed his gratitude to David.

"Let's talk more later!"

David raised his head and looked forward. A black-haired woman in a purple robe was staring at him angrily.

"There are more pressing issues to address first."

"Despicable black dragon!" Varian also saw the humanoid Onyxia, and immediately got up and reached out to touch her waist, but it was a pity that she found nothing, and then looked around, trying to find two weapons that were convenient.

Varian hadn't found a suitable weapon yet. Onyxia, who was full of anger and made no secret of her killing intent, suddenly changed her face after confronting David for two seconds, and directly cast a teleportation spell to disappear from everyone. up.

"???"

Looking at the place where Onyxia disappeared, David was full of question marks. He didn't understand why Onyxia suddenly ran away?

"Could it be that she found out that I cheated on you?"
