Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 48 Hippogriff
The dark shadow swept across the sky and flew towards the hill on the other side.
Seeing the black shadow flying into the distance, Jasmine's mental power relaxed slightly, but there were also some doubts in her heart.
Why is this ghostly beast suspected of being a griffin here, and what is its purpose?
Wait a minute.
Jasmine seriously recalled the aura of the dark shadow and compared it to the mysterious feather that Xia Zuo had picked up earlier...... The smell of the two seems to be exactly the same.
"It's the half-ghosted beast......" Jasmine said thoughtfully.
"You know this ghostly beast?" Edith smiled, "it's still a half-ghostly beast, and it seems to be interesting." ”
"Hee-hee, if you care so much, I think we can go over and have a look. Edith didn't feel the slightest concern, but remained curious.
Jasmine didn't say anything, as if to weigh the risk of action.
As a full-fledged soul hunter, Jasmine is not as reckless as Edith and does whatever she wants with her own strength.
“...... What's going on?" A voice suddenly sounded from behind the two of them, and it turned out to be Xia Zuo, who was awakened.
Xia Zuo also felt the breath of the phantom beast.
"I seem to have sensed the breath of other souls just now......" Natsuzo said as he rubbed his eyes.
"Brother, isn't it like it~" Ithis smiled slyly, "It's true that there are other soul breaths - a strange half-ghost beast." ”
"It's pretty much the same as the smell of that strange feather you picked up earlier. Jasmine explained that with her mental powers, she couldn't have been mistaken.
"The half-ghost beast that has a relationship with Leah?" Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, then asked.
"Hmm. Jasmine nodded slightly.
"So I recommend going over and having a look. Edith blinked, "Since it has a relationship with Lea and has appeared in the Plains of Dessa, where Leah was buried, maybe it can help us find Leah's body." ”
It does make sense...... The feathers of this half-ghost beast appeared in the stable where Leah, the mare, lived before her death, there must be some connection between the two, maybe it was a partner or something??
Ahh
However, it is inevitable that there is a relationship between the two.
It's better to sneak over and observe the situation of this half-ghost beast.
Xia Zuo thought.
"Then let's go over and have a look. Xia Zuo replied, "I've already rested anyway." ”
"Uh, wait...... Do you need to rest for a while?" Xia Zuo suddenly reacted, and asked a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I'm not tired. Jasmine's voice was still as flat as water, and there was no trace of tiredness to be heard.
"I don't have to rest. Edith raised slightly, "And, my brother, I think if you don't give the order sooner, I'm afraid that half-ghost beast will run away early." ”
"It's also ......," Xia Zuo bowed, "since that's the case...... Then let's get out of here and go. ”
"From what I just observed, it went west. Jasmine said lightly, "West Desa Plains." ”
"Well, that's good. Xia Zuo smiled, "So, let's get moving!"
As soon as Xia Zuo finished speaking, he immediately took out the water bag and drank a sip of water, and suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and then Xia Zuo looked at Edith.
Edith understood and immediately put away the things on the makeshift camp and put them in the spatial ring.
Of course, there are also some items that are contained by Jasmine's space bracelet.
Only Xia Zuo, who was a newcomer, couldn't do anything, so he had to stand there.
The two of them finished packing their things, and hurried in the direction where the half-ghost beast was flying.
The destination of the mysterious beast seemed to be on the side of a hill to the west, some distance from Xia Zuo's camp, Xia Zuo wanted to run directly to it, but was laughed at by Ithine, and then was beckoned by Ithis to the back of the black lion undead, and Jasmine sat down unceremoniously.
The trio moved so quickly that they stopped a few minutes later, just as they were about to reach their destination.
Edith gently waved her hand to silence the Black Lion Undead and retreated to the side, standing still.
Xia Zuo and Jasmine also suddenly quieted down, and then found a place to hide.
"What kind of beast could it be, and what was its purpose?"
I saw a strange-looking ghost beast appear in everyone's sight: it was a creature with a head, wings, and front legs that were basically the same as a griffin, but the back half of its body was like that of a horse.
Its wings were surprisingly large enough to allow it to fly high in the air, but it was smaller, not even as good as some unhealthy ponies, and it was much smaller than the adult griffin before it, and seemed to be only in its infancy.
"Is this ...... Hippogriff?" Jasmine froze.
Hippogriff, this is a mythical creature that exists in human legends, and in the records of the Soul Descent, it belongs to the same high-altitude wind forest species as the griffin, and is an extremely rare and rare ghostly beast, or in other words, a half-ghostly beast and a half-blooded ghostly beast.
Legend has it that the Hippogriff's front half is the same as that of a griffin, but the back half of its body is indistinguishable from that of a horse.
Many people once confused griffins with hippogriffs, thinking that hippogriffs meant griffins, but in reality the two were not the same creatures, and the difference between the two was not small.
Hippogriffs are actually the offspring of a cross between a griffin and a mare, and the mare is not a ghostly beast, which is why the Hippogriff is a half-ghostly beast.
However, due to the natural hostility of griffins and horses, the birth of hippogriffs is extremely rare, and some ancients even said: "If you can match griffins and horses, then elk and vicious dogs will be able to love each other in the future." It can be seen that the birth of the Hippogriff is extremely rare, and the Hippogriff itself has become a symbol of miracle and love.
And the creature in front of him is the Hippogriff.
A Hippogriff that symbolizes wonder and love.
I saw that the little eagle was resting on a small hill, and on top of the hill there were two simple tombs, both of which had no name, and it was impossible to tell who the owner of the tomb was.
However, Xia Zuo could sense a familiar aura from one of the tombs.
The breath of a horse.
It was the breath of a meach.
It's the mare buried in this grave!
There was another grave, and Xia Zuo could only feel that there seemed to be a person buried in it.
But Xia Zuo didn't know him, but he inexplicably felt that this person had something very faint in his body.
Suddenly, the little eagle's gaze froze, staying in the direction of Xia Zuo and the others, its wings fluttered, making a deafening sound, although the voice was a little unclear, but it could still be distinguished: "Who is hiding there?!"
Worst.
was discovered.
This guy is so sceptible.
Moreover, this half-ghost beast obviously seems to be in its infancy, and it is really strange that it already knows other languages, and its learning ability is so strong?
Xia Zuo had no choice but to glance at Jasmine and Edith, and said that he would let himself go out and try it first, maybe the griffin didn't notice that there were three of them? Xia Zuo slowly walked out of the hidden place, then waved his hand, and said to the little fippy eagle, "Sorry, excuse me." ”
"Are you ......" The little eagle was stunned for a moment, then sniffed lightly, and suddenly realized, "You are the soul descendant who stopped my father's actions before, and you dare to appear in front of me alone!"
No, what does the father mean? Could it be that the father refers to the griffin?
And it could confirm that I had fought the griffon with a smell like that...... Surprised.
Xia Zuo thought to himself.
“...... No, that's not right!" The little eagle suddenly became alert, "There are other soul descendants here!"
As soon as the little eagle finished speaking, its wings flapped and brought up a strong wind wrapped in powerful soul energy, and the wind roared angrily and struck in the direction where Jasmine and the others were!
Oh no! Jasmine and them were discovered by this half-ghost beast!
Xia Zuo hurriedly hurried back to defense.
"Boom!"
But just before Xia Zuo could return to defense, lightning bolts were entangled and suddenly fell from the sky, dispersing the strong and aggressive wind in time, and at the same time stirring up a cloud of smoke and dust.
“...... This is?" Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "Whose extraordinary ability is this??"
Jasmine's ability is ice elemental manipulation, and Edith is necromancy, neither of which should have anything to do with lightning.
When the smoke cleared, Jasmine's figure appeared first, and Edith looked at Jasmine in front of her with a little surprise.
"Jasmine?!" Xia Zuo couldn't help but be surprised.
Jasmine, she still has this extraordinary ability to destruct her...... Speaking of which, I remember hearing her muttering to her the first time I saw her that it was not appropriate to use lightning manipulation...... I almost forgot about it.
Could this be Jasmine's true power?
At this time, Jasmine's body was full of flowing electric light, her face was still hidden in a wide hood, and the black clothes she was wearing were stirred up by the current around her body, and the black clothes that originally covered her body fluttered in the wind, revealing Jasmine's petite body and white calves.
The dazzling electric light and the moonlight reflect each other, and the jasmine at this time is like a silver-white light, illuminating this dark night.
Lightning Manipulation!
Jasmine's second extraordinary ability!
This ability allows the ability to freely generate electricity or lightning, and can freely manipulate these currents for offensive or defensive purposes, but due to the large range of damage, it is only suitable for use in open terrain.
When Jasmine met Xia Zuo before, she wanted to use lightning manipulation, but due to the special situation at that time, there were houses built by ordinary people nearby, and it was easy to affect other ordinary people, so Jasmine did not use this ability, but let Xia Zuo cooperate at that time to defeat the ghost.
And now Jasmine is on a plain with very open terrain, so she can naturally use this ability as she pleases.
In fact, compared to the ice manipulation, Jasmine's lightning manipulation is actually more powerful, and Jasmine's strength is no less than that of a quasi-soul hunter with the blessing of lightning manipulation!
"Silver light of the night, Jasmine Venatasha......" Edith muttered to herself thoughtfully, smiled, and nodded to Jasmine, "Clara's strongest female soul descendant, is it really worthy of her name." ”
A member of the Night Veil, a mysterious maiden elixir, Clara's strongest female soulborn, the Silver Light of the Night, Jasmine Venatasha.
Jasmine's strength is actually far beyond Xia Zuo's imagination.
I'll go, Jasmine is so powerful??
Hearing what Edith said, Xia Zuo couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
After all, Xia Zuo has only been in the Night Curtain for a short time, and he doesn't know the members of the team very well, especially the mysterious Jasmine.
I didn't expect Jasmine, who is an elixir master, to be so powerful, it seems that I should work hard...... I don't want to be left behind by her all the time, shouting to protect her and everyone but not having the power.
Thinking about how embarrassed you are now, you hurried back only to find that you didn't need yourself at all.
Xia Zuo couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then looked at the little fipped eagle, let's solve the problem of this phantom beast first.
Seeing that the attack was blocked, the little fippling eagle frowned, his eyes swept around, and then stayed on Jasmine and Edith, as for Xia Zuo, Xia Zuo was ignored.
There's no way, who called Xia Zuo weak.
"Damn human soulborn...... "The little Hippogriff roared in a low voice.
