Chapter 194: Mount, Princess Black Dragon!

"I live in a remote place; why not come back with me? Of course, your friends are welcome too, including this monkey with a triangular head!"

"There, I can explain your unique background to you. Finally, I can be the father I always wanted to be!"

What he really meant was—finally, a descendant worthy of being my child!

Rocket bared his teeth but chose to remain silent for Star-Lord's sake.

Seeing that they were about to have a discussion, Ego decided to leave.

"When I was young, I always watched other children playing with their fathers. I envied them and wished my father could play with me. It was my greatest desire at the time."

Star-Lord, silent until now, spoke. His meaning was clear: he wanted to go.

"What if it's a trap?" Gamora interjected, casting doubt.

"But..." Star-Lord could certainly consider this. After all, there are many who want to cause him trouble in the galaxy, such as Yondu, the Sovereign, and various races who have been displeased...

"With his strength, if he wanted to harm me, he wouldn't need to resort to tricks, right?"

"Yes, I am not his match. If he's determined to oppose you, I can't stop him," Thor added.

"Did you hear that?" Star-Lord raised an eyebrow.

Gamora and the others fell silent.

After some discussion, Star-Lord, Gamora, and Drax decided to accompany Ego to his planet, while Rocket and Baby Groot stayed behind to repair the spaceship.

Thor had other matters to attend to.

Ego was naturally pleased to see this outcome; his true goal was only Star-Lord.

As for Thor, it was best if he stayed out of the way. Ego clearly knew Thor was a formidable opponent, and provoking him might be risky.

Despite Odin's limited time, his deterrence was still effective. Even Ego wouldn't want to anger Odin...

Watching Star-Lord and the others depart in Ego's spaceship, Rocket returned to repair the ship, while Thor moved to a nearby open space and accessed the system panel.

"Hey, congratulations to the host for completing the mission: nickname storm. Reward: random mount lottery ticket! Are you sure you want to use it?"

"Yes, use it."

Suddenly, a panel appeared before Thor that was invisible to others. Countless images flashed by, showcasing various mounts from across realms: some from low fantasy worlds, some from high fantasy realms, and some from mythical landscapes.

Sweaty BMW, White Dragon Horse, Kui Niu, Diao Chan, Magic Carpet, Golden Winged Roc...

Uh, it seems there might be something peculiar mixed in?

Well, don't worry about the details.

The pointer spun rapidly before slowing to a stop.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the mount from the plane 'Azeroth ': Princess Black Dragon, and receiving the item—Onyxia's Reins!"

"Onyxia's Reins: The only item that can summon or recall the mount Black Dragon Princess and compel her to obey the host's commands."

Black Dragon Princess, Onyxia! A formidable guardian dragon, once known as Neltharion, daughter of Deathwing, and sister of the scheming Black Stone King Chen Farley.

As the Black Dragon Princess, she embodied the cunning of the Black Dragon Clan, disguising herself as a human noble in Stormwind City to corrupt the Stormwind Kingdom's elite.

Exposed by Marshal Reginald Wind mage, she became a wanted criminal in Azeroth and was slain by adventurers.

Her head was displayed in Stormwind City.

The worst part? This wasn't the end. She was resurrected twice and entered dungeons three times...

Her fate was tragic, as Vision only mentioned briefly in the past.

Moreover, she was a treasure trove of items: dragon heads could be crafted into Onyxia's headpieces, dragon skin into Onyxia scale cloaks, dragon's breath into the sword Quel Sela, and her tendons used for various crafting.

The Black Dragon's loot included numerous professional weapons, armor sets, Onyxia leather bags, and Onyxia's reins for her dragon mount...

It was as dismal as an elf prince with two mounts...

Thor couldn't help but smirk and briefly mourned her fate.

"Roar----"

In the open space ahead, a massive black dragon materialized out of thin air.

"What happened? Am I heading to Stormwind?"

The enormous dragon turned its head to look at Thor, its face showing confusion and distress.

Now she resembled a lost child.

"Sir... can you tell me where this is?"

As she spoke, she took a deep breath.

In the next instant, a torrent of fire erupted from her mouth, aimed directly at Thor.
