Chapter 169: Fighting the Chicken, Snake, and Beast
Alan felt a little embarrassed, he didn't take it to heart at all, he was only thinking about the system's rewards at the time!
"Do you know what this monster is?" asked Allen, asking for more information.
It could never be a basilisk, there was no trace of a basilisk crawling in the Forbidden Forest, and it was impossible for the basilisk to release such a massive poisonous gas.
Otherwise, the young wizards of Hogwarts would have been poisoned a lot.
These signs tell Eren that Tina is right, and that there is indeed another monster in the Chamber of Secrets.
And this monster is supposed to be particularly interested in birds, so it will go directly to the Forbidden Forest instead of staying in the castle.
There is also a possibility that the basilisk crawled out of the chamber through a pipe, and it also had its own passage that led directly to the Forbidden Forest.
At this moment, Gaia suddenly looked behind Allen vigilantly.
Eren hurriedly jumped to Gaia's side, looking warily in the direction he had just been, and he also heard the sound of squirming.
The trees around them turned yellow-brown and were about to die, while the trees in the distance were not yet dead, but the black poisonous gas turned into black lines that wrapped around the entire trunk.
The grass rots rapidly, and the leaves turn from verdant green to grayish-white, then quickly withered and brittle, shattering and turning to black ash at the slightest touch of the night breeze.
A disgusting, rusty smell of metal gradually spread through the air.
The open space where Eren and the others were turned into an extremely bleak scene of the apocalypse.
In this silence and darkness, the fear of death hangs over the land.
"You can see this monster with your own eyes!" Gaia stared warily in the direction from which the strange voice was coming from, "We should get out of here quickly!" Gaia suggested.
Allen believes that in the face of unclear opponents' strength, it is wise to avoid the edge for the time being.
Eren climbed onto Gaia's back, and Gaia spread her wings and flew high into the air.
Soon, a strange creature appeared in the clearing.
Alan had to admit that it was the weirdest creature he had ever seen.
It's not big, it's the size of a hen.
Just looking at its size, it is hard for you to imagine that the poisonous gas exhaled by such a small animal can kill a flying bird.
This poisonous gas is extremely domineering, and wherever this monster walks, no grass or shrubs survive.
Its head was raised high, with a small yellow and blue crown-like pattern, which also resembled the comb of a rooster.
Its eyes are shaped like toads, and its wings are red, yellow, and blue.
It walks on four feet and is majestic.
The front feet are yellow and blue, like the claws of a rooster.
The hind feet are serrated and webbed, like the feet of a frog.
"It's the monster of your castle, the Chicken Snake Beast. Gaia said in a deep voice.
Eren finally knows what kind of monster it is!
The Mystery Animal Illustrated Book, which he had read before, had a few brief descriptions of the monster.
It is said that an old rooster laid an egg, and a toad hatched the egg, and the chicken and snake came from this egg. This is much the same as the birth of the basilisk.
Either way, this terrifying hybridization is always the subject of horror stories.
Since chickens and snakes can kill people just by poison gas, very few people have seen it.
There are even fewer people who know exactly how to breed chickens and snakes.
But it is well documented that the Chicken Snake Beast is believed to be the culprit of the plague that raged in Rome in the 9th century.
In 1202, a chicken-snake beast hiding in a well caused a plague in Vienna.
In 1474, in Basel, Switzerland, a Muggle saw a rooster lay an egg, only to be burned alive and thrown into the fire in front of thousands of people before the egg could hatch.
Because there are so few descriptions of chickens, snakes, and beasts in the "Mysterious Animal Illustrated Book", and there are no patterns to learn from, Alan didn't even think of it before.
"Gaia, let me go, maybe I can solve it!" "Alan, who knew its roots, wanted to go down and meet this monster for a while.
"Alan, it's not just poisonous gas and venom! any bird that sees its gaze will die for no reason. Gaia disapproves of Allen's risk.
"I'll try to be careful, someone has to step up!" Allen felt that he still had a good chance of winning.
After all, the biggest weapons of the Chicken Snake Beast, the poison gas and venom, did not pose the slightest threat to Allen!
Gaia saw that Eren was resolute in his tone and was determined to deal with the Chicken Snake Beast, so she had to land behind the Chicken Snake Beast and let Eren climb off its back.
Gaia spread her wings again, hovering in the air, waiting for an opportunity to attack the little monster.
"Faint!" Alan took advantage of his surprise and quickly unleashed a spell.
The spell successfully hit the Chicken Snake Beast, which instantly turned around and glared angrily at Eren with a hissing sound that symbolized death.
The spell didn't work against this monster!
The moment it turned, Eren closed his eyes.
"All petrified!" Hearing this, Eren cast another spell without giving up.
The spell struck the Chicken Snake Beast, which flapped its little wings in anger and flew a few feet in the air, stretching out its two sharp front paws and lunging towards Allen's front door.
The fishy wind was blowing, and Allen made a mistake at his feet, dodging the fierce blow of the chicken, snake, and beast.
At the same time, the wand disappeared from Eren's hand in an instant, replaced by the silver sword given to Eren by the Unicorn King Gacylis.
Eren swung as hard as he could, slashing in the direction of the Snake Beast he felt.
Eren succeeded in slashing at the body of the chicken, snake, and beast, and his heart was ecstatic.
But in an instant, Alan felt a pain in his hand, and the neck of the snake beast suddenly became longer, and he bit Eren fiercely, and at the same time spewed venom.
Alan instantly felt dizzy. He couldn't help but open his eyes, and blood was gurgling from one side of the chicken, snake, and beast's body.
Its neck twisted and stretched in an uncanny arc, and its mouth bit Alan's hand hard.
Worst of all, Eren was in front of his toad-like eyes.
Gaia hissed in grief and swooped down from the sky, stomping the lower half of the and snake beast violently.
The Snake Beast instantly let go of Eren and turned its head to bite Gaia.
Gaia completely disregarded her own safety, and kicked the chicken snake beast as if she was crazy, and her hooves fell like rain.
Alan felt that the sky was full of Gaia's hoof.
The Snake Beast couldn't escape Gaia's attack.
In desperation, with the determination to die, it bit Gaia's leg, even if the lower half of its body was kicked to pieces, it resolutely refused to let go.
