Chapter 100: Fraer's Animal Companions
The Hippogriff is beautiful, with a body like an enlarged eagle, a pair of sharp talons stepping on the deck, the dark black claws are shining, and the tips of the claws are gently placed on the deck, which will add a few small pits to the deck. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info above the claws are strong legs, and the muscles of the two legs covered by fluff are bulging, as hard as stones. The muscles are hard, but the fluff that covers the underside of the body is warm and soft, smooth to the touch like brocade, and when you put your face on it, it feels like the most comfortable goose down pillow, especially the fluff on the inside of the wings, covering the body as if the whole body has melted into the clouds. Although the fluff under the body is smooth and comfortable to the touch, the dark green feathers above the body are as hard as metal, especially the feathers at the end of the wings and tail, the edges are sharp like sharp blades, and the tip flashes with an ominous cold light, making people have no doubt that as long as it gently swings its wings, it can easily cut an ordinary person into two pieces. As for their heads, females have only two short protrusions, while males have forked horns like stags, and when it is courtship season, the horned eagles will fight with less lethal antlers to compete for mates.
Catherine stood in front of a female horned eagle beast, looked up at the monster that was about to become her short-term partner, slowly raised her hand, holding a piece of meat weighing two kilograms, the horned eagle beast looked curiously at the girl below with its dark and shining eyes, after hesitating for a while, she took the beef in the girl's hand, and swallowed the whole piece of meat into her stomach with a barbed beak a few times, the taste of the beef seemed to make it very satisfied, so it bent its neck and rubbed it on the girl's face very kindly, making the girl's face itch for a while, and couldn't help laughingγ
"Thank you. The maiden patted the eagle beast on the neck, and rolled over and stepped into the saddle behind it, which was so well designed that it was not only comfortable and stable to sit on, but also did not interfere with its flight. The Hippogriff didn't seem to be dissatisfied with the passengers on its back, but it shook its body slightly, and then resumed its squatting posture without care.
Although the horned eagle beast can be domesticated and looks very docile, in the dead forest, the horned eagle beast actually occupies the ranks of the top predators, even if it is a lot of overlords in the air, when encountering the horned eagle beast in the hunt, they must choose to avoid it temporarily, because these magical beasts whose strength is in the gold and legendary levels live in groups, and a group often ranges from dozens to hundreds.
"How do they hunt?" Riding on the saddle, Catherine asked the other Pannith on her back in confusion: "According to their size, they have at least ten meters of wings, and in such a dense forest, it is impossible for them to fly if they get into it." β
"They won't go into the forest. Leaving the task of assigning mounts to his subordinates, Fraer waited leisurely like a bystander, so she had time to answer for Pannis: "There are several kinds of prey, except for the birds above the forest and the monsters and beasts that dare to appear on the top of the trees, the third is to fly out of the forest all the time, go to the grassland to hunt, and then bring back a large amount of prey to the cubs of the tribe after they have eaten enough." That's why they're so big. β
"Well, it seems that the creatures in the forest are similar to what I thought. Catherine thought about it and nodded: "I found out when I checked the information before, and it can be seen in the introduction that the size of the known demonic beasts in the forest is not very large, and the large demonic beasts are often only three or four meters long, and the monsters that are too large should not be able to move in the forest of this density." β
"Well, it's going to be very inflexible, and it's not going to do any good either hunting or living. Pannis said: "It's not that the bigger the size, the stronger the strength, there is no inevitable connection between the two, and more importantly, the really terrifying ones are actually some small monsters, under the premise of the same strength, too big is not a threat." β
"Isn't there a threat?" Catherine said puzzledly, "Why is it that the smaller the size, the greater the threat? β
"Well, let's take an example, let's say I was adventuring in the forest and encountered a giant demonic beast of the demigod level ready to attack me. Pannis asked rhetorically, "What do you think I should do?"
"Of course, it is to prepare for defense first, and when it attacks, it relies on the power of defense to consume the opponent's energy. Catherine said without hesitation: "Although fellow demigods are not afraid of them, they should always fight in the most energy-saving way during the adventure, so as to maintain enough physical strength to deal with unexpected situations in the future." β
"That's right. Pannis applauded and agreed, "That's the best way to deal with it, so what if you replace the attacker with a smaller demigod beast, like Fraer's panther." β
"That's also a demigod beast?" Several girls were surprised to glance at the panther who was lying on the deck basking in the sun, the panther flicked its tail, and in a disdainful manner, yawned at the girls' gaze, and rolled lazily in half a circle, revealing its furry belly to meet the warm sun. The panther's arrogant posture made the girls cry and laugh, and Catherine said helplessly: "Well, we didn't notice it at all, it looks like a big black cat, and besides, the demigod monster will also be used as a mount for other intelligent creatures?"
"That's no ordinary demigod beast, that's Fraer's animal companion. Pannis explained, "There are very few people among the elves who have special talents and can communicate with the monsters of the Lost Forest in a simple way. Some elves with such talents will use this talent to make requests with some powerful monsters, and if the monsters accept, they will give their cubs to the elves to raise. As a result, this raised cub has been raised by the elves since it was born shortly after birth, so it has a heart-to-heart with the raiser, and is the best combat partner and one of their best friends. β
"How can you still have this talent?" Catherine said in surprise, "I haven't seen it in the guild's records." β
"Because many elves, even if they have talent, will no longer want to use this method after a few years. Pannis sighed, shook his head, and said, "So, elves with animal companions are very rare, and it is very normal that there is no record. β
"Why? It was Lina who asked the question, and the curious priest girl stared at her big shining eyes and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you want to use such a good partner?" )
