Although Onyxia followed the main force of the expeditionary force throughout the whole process, due to her noble status, the commanders in the army usually would not arrange dangerous jobs for her unless it was really a matter of life and death.
In a word, Onyxia is a marginal figure in the expeditionary force.
Without the heavy tasks assigned by her superiors, Onyxia can focus more on exploring Draenor and strive to find the egg-guarding team led by Saberian as soon as possible.
But at this time, Sabellian did not dare to take the initiative to contact Onyxia. Once Her Royal Highness the Princess learned that they had lost several dragon eggs... the result was predictable.
Unable to wait for Saberian's contact, Onyxia was bored and could only paddle while enjoying the scenery of Talador Forest along the way.
Compared with the desolate and ruined Hellfire Peninsula, the scenery of Talador Forest is more worthy of appreciation.
This was once the core territory of Draenei life. Along the way, Onyxia and others saw many Draenei towns that had been conquered by orcs a long time ago.
Judging from the ruins of the town, the civilization development process of the draenei is far ahead of the orcs.
Onyxia was puzzled by this. She couldn't understand why Draenei, who had a higher degree of civilization development, was crushed to the ground by orcs who were still in the primitive clan system and exploded with hammers.
Out of curiosity, Onyxia went deep into the ruins of the draenei towns to search for clues, and followed the clues to find the long-abandoned draenei capital Shattrath.
Even though it is dilapidated, the draenei's architectural skills can be roughly seen from the ruins of this giant city.
After learning that the mysterious person of unknown origin would meet at the ruins of Shattrath, Onyxia immediately guessed that the person might be a Draenei.
But when I thought about it carefully, I felt something was wrong.
The draenei have lived in Draenor all year round, and it is impossible for them to understand the reality of the black dragon clan that has just arrived, let alone to accurately call her name and identity.
'It's useless to think too much.'
Onyxia gritted her teeth. Out of confidence in her own strength, she finally decided to take a risk and see what the other party wanted to do.
If the mysterious person who sent the message was just deceiving her with information about Sinestra, Onyxia was determined not to let them leave alive.
But if it's true...
A glimmer of light flashed in Onyxia's eyes: 'Just in case, let's make some arrangements first.'
…
Since Onyxia entered Draenor, the black dragons in the entire Draenor world are nominally under her command.
That being said, Onyxia actually doesn't have much in common with those of her race whose heads were burned by the power of the ancient gods.
Everyone around her was feverishly discussing how to destroy the world and how to kill the four-color dragon. Onyxia, who had no interest in this, could only pretend to be aloof.
Destroy the world? The world is gone. How can I, the Black Dragon Princess, still enjoy life wantonly? I must be sick.
Onyxia's mood can be described by a joke mentioned by the barrage.
"I often feel out of place with you because I'm not perverted enough."
Before leaving the Auchindoun camp without telling the soldiers of the expeditionary force, Onyxia specifically ordered the draconians lurking in the Stormwind Kingdom's army to go out alone to find traces of Sabellian, and let them temporarily follow the army.
After confirming that all the black dragons nodded in agreement, Onyxia left quietly and headed towards Shattrath City by land at full speed.
Shattrath City is located in the northwest corner of Talador Forest, close to the Oruna Coast. It is a prosperous port city built on the coast of the Zangar Sea.
Since being conquered by the orcs, the ruins of Shattrath have long been uninhabited.
Some wild animals take the opportunity to enter the overgrown urban areas, and the civilized cities built by intelligent races are returning to the embrace of the wilderness.
At 3:30 in the night, Onyxia stood in the dilapidated square of Shattrath City, silently waiting for the appointed time to arrive.
In fact, the four Sarlayans had arrived in Shattrath as early as the morning, and at this time they were hiding in the dark and observing quietly.
Sinestra looked at Onyxia with very complicated eyes. She still can't completely believe her daughter, but she still harbors hope in her heart, hoping that things will turn out as Sharlayan predicted.
develop.
"It's time."
Sarlayan put the exquisite pocket watch back on his chest and stood up from his hiding place first. Stellagosa and Valeera also hurriedly followed.
"According to the plan, Sinestra, you will first rise to the sky to sweep the formation for us. If this negotiation goes well, you can take the initiative to show up according to the situation."
"But if unfortunately the talks fall apart..."
Sinestra nodded solemnly: "I will personally subdue her and eliminate this threat in advance."
"Then it's up to you."
Sharlayan exchanged glances with Valeera and Stellagosa, and the three of them walked out of the ruins of the building that obscured their whereabouts, and faced Onyxia, who had been waiting impatiently.
Valeera: "You trust her so much? Sinestra and Onyxia are relatives. What if..."
Sarlayan replied in the soul link channel: "Don't trust those who employ them, and don't trust those who doubt them."
"Through previous contacts, you should also know what kind of person Sinestra is and what your views are on the current black dragon clan."
"I don't force her to support us wholeheartedly. This is inherently unrealistic."
"But as long as there are common interests between both parties, we can reach a more solid cooperative relationship with her, even if it is only temporary."
"Let me ask you, what do you think Sinestra's long-term goals are?"
Stellagosa tilted her head and thought: "Will the black dragon clan, which was led astray by Deathwing, get back on track?"
"That's right."
Sarlayan calmly explained: "Nefarian stands firmly on the side of Deathwing, and Onyxia's position is unclear for the time being."
"In this case, Sinestra has no choice but to cooperate with us who have close ties with Abisian."
"Okay, let's stop talking here. It's time to get down to business."
The three of them walked to the center of the square step by step, and as expected, Onyxia showed a shocked expression.
"you……"
Onyxia is not stupid, but very smart, and playing tricks is her strength.
With a flash of inspiration in her mind, the Black Dragon Princess recalled every detail of her time with the three of them, and used the results to push back. Only then did she discover some sense of inconsistency in her daily life, and she suddenly showed a look of surprise and annoyance on her face.
"Haha... I didn't expect that one day I would capsize in the gutter and be plotted against."
After taking a deep breath to calm down her mood, Onyxia quickly regained her composure.
"Lord Deep Shadow, I have always been curious about why there is a blue dragon beside you. Now it seems that she is used to deal with me, right?"
"You managed to hide the complex triangle relationship from me with your superb acting skills. I deeply admire this."
"Uh~"
Sarlayan remained calm on the surface, but silently complained in his heart: 'I'm sorry, that's not acting, and you think too much.'
If he really planned to attack the Black Dragon Princess directly, Sharlayan would not place his hopes on a young dragon. Instead, he would directly pull Abyssian over from High Mountain, or contact Wyrmrest Temple to arrange for manpower for an ambush.
.
The thoughtful Onyxia made up a lot of things in her mind, and looked at Sarlayan with eyes full of wariness and fear.
"What is your purpose? Why did you use the name of mother to lure me out?"
"Could it be...that you are greedy for my beauty?"
"Ahem!"
Sarlayan, who was about to open his mouth to explain, was choked by this slanderous statement and coughed. As expected, Stellagosa and Valeela's faces darkened.
"Ahem~ Stop joking."
Sarlayan quickly calmed down his breathing and said seriously to Onyxia, who was smiling but not smiling: "Princess Black Dragon, before answering your question, we need to confirm one thing first."
"What do you think of the Black Dragon Legion under the control of Deathwing? Why do you turn a blind eye to Sinestra's tragic experience?"
Onyxia's face changed slightly, and she looked at Sarlayan with a deep look in her eyes.
"Don't worry about anyone eavesdropping."
Sharlayan pointed at Stellagosa beside him: "The moment you stepped into Shattrath City, the large barrier we set up using the remaining magic crystals in the city has taken effect. There will be no more
When outsiders set foot here, you can speak freely."
Onyxia was silent for a few seconds before sighing silently: "Does my attitude matter? Do you know what Ouneng is like?"
"Of course it's important."
A meaningful smile appeared on Saryan's face: "This will determine whether we will cooperate or confront each other in the future."
"We do know where Sinestra is. If you can show your sincerity, I can tell you where she is now."
