Chapter 343: Keen Paletress

~7 min read 1,312 words

Shaw did not give an accurate action time. Perhaps he himself was not sure whether this mission could succeed?

Although SI: 7 was powerful, it was not omnipotent.

After the Defias Brotherhood kidnapping case, they discovered that King Varian's personality had changed drastically, becoming cowardly and incompetent, timid and fearful. Knowing that there must be a problem, they were helpless.

They could only watch the House of Nobles make bad moves, the Stormwind Kingdom gradually becoming chaotic and disorderly, and things getting worse and worse.

As the eyes and ears of King Varian, they did not have much power to interfere in the kingdom's politics.

This was perhaps his motivation for making up his mind to find the mastermind.

However, waiting was not Wayne's style. He never waited when doing things, only looking for opportunities to strike with one blow after making sufficient preparations.

Since he already knew who the mastermind was and had already accepted the master-level mission, Wayne would not foolishly act according to the mission process.

The only thing worth worrying about was that the Black Dragon Princess, as a descendant of Deathwing and a former raid boss, still had quite strong strength.

As a dragon, a species that was naturally very strong, not only did they possess hard and strong bodies, but they also had quite powerful magical talents, and their own fertility was not too bad. Their lifespan was limitless. The stronger ones could basically live for tens of thousands of years, simply the chosen race of the Azeroth world.

And as the Black Dragon Princess, Onyxia also had many strong Dragonkin guards hidden around her. In times of danger, she could even ask her brother and father for help, so to deal with her, besides choosing the right time, one must also make corresponding plans.

Although Wayne possessed many hole cards, he did not have the certainty of absolute victory when facing this powerful black dragon.

In the evening, the priestess Paletress came by invitation. Wayne first took this young lady who lived quite simply to the highest-end dessert shop in the city to enjoy some delicious tea and desserts, and then, accompanied by this lady, went to visit the old mage who could help him make a Hunter Badge.

This was an old court mage serving in Varian's palace. It was said that he had participated in all the Orc Wars. Although his own strength could not be considered particularly strong, for making magical equipment, the old man's skills could also be called exquisite, and he was quite famous in the entire Stormwind City.

If it weren't for the face of Archbishop Faol, and if it weren't for Paletress's company, with Wayne's current status, it would be very difficult to gain the recognition of this master in a short time and conduct a transaction with him.

This was the benefit of having a way, being able to easily do things that were quite difficult for ordinary people.

After a detailed discussion, Wayne spent about a thousand gold coins to buy a relic of a powerful elf hunter from the old mage's collection, a ready-made Pet Badge made by an elf mage.

It was said that this old mage got it from the elves of Silvermoon City in Dalaran when he was in the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

As long as it underwent a night of modification and then went to the stable to perform a simple master-recognition ceremony with the Deathclaw, he could use this convenient and fast Pet Badge.

Of course, if Wayne wasn't in such a hurry and wanted to get a Pet Badge as soon as possible, the old mage could make a brand new badge for him, rather than modifying this collection with collection value.

Not only was the price cheaper, but in terms of function, it was also more practical than this elf magical equipment passed down from who knows what era.

But there was no way. Who knows when he would have to deal with the Black Dragon Princess Onyxia in the future, so he must bring the Deathclaw by his side as soon as possible.

However, Wayne the wealthy old man never liked to make choices. While buying this elf badge, he also entrusted the old mage to use the best and most expensive materials to make another Pet Badge for him.

Such a tycoon-like trading method immediately won the favor of the old mage. No one dislikes tycoons. Generous customers like Wayne were the type most welcomed by all bosses.

And with this pleasant interaction, the next time Wayne needed to make any magical equipment, he wouldn't need to rely on Archbishop Faol's face. The old mage would definitely entertain him very happily.

After leaving the old mage's house, Wayne expressed his gratitude to Paletress quite politely. But this time, the gratitude did not make Paletress feel happy. Instead, this priestess said quite seriously: "You are too polite, Mr. Wayne."

"We are already friends, helping each other is what we should do."

"And your help to the orphans of the church makes me admire you very much. Being able to do something for you makes me feel a bit happy instead."

Speaking of this, Paletress suddenly fell silent for a few seconds. This beautiful priestess looked at Wayne, and a trace of hesitation flashed in her clear eyes, and then she asked quite hesitantly:

"Mr. Wayne, actually, from the moment we met, I discovered something, but I have been hesitating, not knowing whether I should ask you."

Wayne raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, not knowing why Paletress would say this, but he still said with a smile:

"Just as you said, Paletress, we are already friends. If you have anything, you can ask me directly."

"Don't you think I am the kind of person who haggles over every ounce."

"Of course not, Wayne."

"You are a noble gentleman. Even the big nobles in Stormwind City are not as generous as you, willing to help so many children."

Paletress waved her hand upon hearing this, and then no longer hesitated, saying her question:

"However, as a believer of Holy Light, I can feel that there seems to be a very evil power sealed in your body."

"Gloomy and dark, full of killing aura."

"It's just that this power seems to be sealed by another kind of divine power, and only some dark aura remains, so I can feel it."

"Can you tell me what's going on, Wayne?"

"We are friends. As a believer of Holy Light, if you need the help of Holy Light, I will absolutely not delay."

Wayne was genuinely surprised upon hearing this.

"You can actually feel it?"

He really didn't expect that this priestess in front of him could sense the Hell magic power in his body and took the initiative to bring it up.

However, this was a good opportunity. He originally planned to see if he could solve this problem before dealing with the Black Dragon Princess Onyxia. Now that Paletress took the initiative to bring it up, he could indeed take this opportunity to ask this High Priest to help him check it. This was originally one of his main purposes for coming to Azeroth.

So, a look of sadness appeared on Wayne's face, and he said half-truthfully: "Since you have already seen it, I won't hide it, Paletress."

"Actually, coming to Stormwind City this time, I originally wanted to seek help from the Holy Light Church and ask them to help me clear the evil god power in my body."

"This was when I was adventuring in other places, in order to save a group of kind commoners threatened by an evil god, I defeated that evil god."

"But in the end, I was contaminated by the evil god's power and became what I am now."
