Chapter 48: The Griffon (Part II)
Back in Vicky's gardens, Aaron took the portrait of the unknown creature and went to find his mentor Wren first. The materials in the library, Aaron had all recorded them in the chip before, and there was no relevant information at all, so he could only hope for help from the mentor, hoping to get help from Wren.
After Wren glanced at the portrait drawn by Aaron a few times, he also frowned slightly, it was obvious that he had not seen this creature either, and he could not give any relevant information: "I don't remember seeing this creature, but you can ask Jack, in the entire Vicky Garden, except for the Dean, the most experienced is Old Jack, he may know." ”
Wren, though he couldn't help Aaron, still gave useful advice.
"Okay, thank you, teacher, then I won't bother you!" Aaron thanked him, and then immediately left, and went to old Jack.
Soon, Aaron came to Jack again.
"We're meeting again, what do you want this time?" said Jack, looking at Aaron, with a smirk.
"Lord Jack, I'm just trying to get some questions this time. Aaron shook his head, walked over to Jack's desk, and placed the portrait in his hand on the table, "Do you know what kind of creature this is?"
Old Jack stretched out his hand, picked up the portrait, just glanced at it, his eyes showed a hint of nostalgia, and slowly spoke: "Have you seen this creature?"
Aaron observed very carefully, and Jack's expression proved that he must have understood, and then he was happy, but he didn't intend to tell the truth: "I haven't seen it, I just saw that the creature in this portrait is very similar to a griffin, but it's not the same, and I was curious for a while, but I didn't find any relevant information in the library, and Mr. Wren also said that he hadn't seen it, and recommended me to come to you to ask ......"
"This creature is called Griffon, and it is a collateral descendant of the legendary creature griffin, similar to a griffin in appearance, but it is not at the same level as the real griffon. Old Jack had a calm look on his face, and said unhurriedly: "I saw a griffin beast more than 20 years ago, this creature is very rare, the strength of an adult griffin beast is equivalent to a level 2 mage, the griffin beast on your portrait is still an adult young beast, when it becomes an adult, its size will be doubled, and the blue mane on the back of the neck will grow into a whole circle, around the neck, and the fluff at the end of the tail will also turn blue......"
"So I've seen an underage griffon!" Aaron thought to himself after listening to Jack's description, and then asked, "Does the griffon have any special habits or abilities?"
What Aaron wants to know most is its habits, as well as the problem of ability, so as to determine how to deal with it, you must do your best, the griffin beast is equivalent to a level 2 mage when it is an adult, and its strength is undoubted, and now it is still very weak, if you want to kill it, you must take advantage of it, otherwise the longer it drags on, the more hopeless it is.
"Adult griffons have the innate ability of the wind attribute, and when they release their talents, they are equivalent to level 2 wind spells, which are very powerful, and as for those who are not adults, they can't control their innate abilities, but their own strength, speed and resistance to spells are very strong, especially the resistance of wind spells is the highest, and the most feared is thunder spells. ”
"Speaking of the griffon's habit, there is also one, it likes to eat carrion, and the smell of rancidity, after killing its prey, it generally leaves it alone, and then eat......s it after the corpse rots and stinks" Speaking of this, Jack seemed to remember something not very good in the influence, his expression moved slightly, and then returned to normal.
After returning from Jack, Aaron began to plan how to deal with the underage griffin.
"There is absolutely no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation, so you can only outwit ......" Although the griffin beast is not yet an adult, it is not a soft persimmon that is easy to deal with, even if it has no natural ability, its body is too strong.
"It is impossible for the withering potion to have an effect, its system is too high, and my current spell cannot effectively damage it as usual, what should I do!" Aaron pondered according to his existing conditions.
According to Jack's introduction to the griffon, what it is most afraid of is the lightning spell, and among the level 0 spells, it is estimated that the only ones that can have some impact on it are the offensive spells of this series.
However, Aaron can only use plant-based spells, and other spells will not, the only thing that comes to mind is to use a bursting potion to deal with it, but unfortunately the power of this potion is too weak, and it is estimated that it is not of much use.
Although quantitative change can cause qualitative change, and when a large number of bursting potions are detonated together, the power can be increased, but Aaron calculated with a chip that if a hundred bursting potions are detonated at the same time, the power will reach the limit value, which is about 8 degrees, and then the number of potions will be increased, and the power of detonation will not exceed this value.
With a power of only 8 degrees, it is possible to inflict some flesh wounds on the griffon, but it is far from enough to kill it, and it is indeed difficult to do without a level 1 spell.
"No, you have to have it anyway, a level 1 spell can kill it, otherwise there is no point in going, and it may scare it away!" Aaron racked his brains, unable to think of any other alternative. "I can only find Mentor Wren and Bruce and ask them to help get a level 1 spell scroll, and preferably a thunder spell scroll. ”
Since it would take a level 1 spell to kill the griffon, Aaron had to find a way to get his hands on the spell scroll.
A spell scroll is a one-time consumable item, which stores a spell, and the user only needs to use mental power to trigger it, and the spells stored in it can be released, and the materials used to make this kind of scroll are more expensive, and generally no one will use it to store level 0 spells, and the most inferior is also used to store level 1 spells.
The mental power of the second- and third-level mage apprentices can only trigger a level 1 spell scroll at most, and the level 2 spell roll-in is currently impossible for Aaron to use due to the need for more powerful mental power to trigger.
The price of a Level 1 spell scroll is about 1,000 low-level magic crystals, but few people sell them, and they basically keep them for their own use, and there are very few people who can make zuò spell scrolls in Vicky's Garden, and they don't sell them.
Therefore, Aaron can only ask Wren for help, and Bruce asks him to see if the family can get it, anyway, the more such things, the better, whether it is to deal with griffons or to save their lives, it is a good means.
Soon Aaron went to Bruce again for help, this was the third time he went to him, Aaron felt a little embarrassed, but Bruce still agreed as always.
As for Wren's side, Aaron used the excuse that he would only have a small vine winding technique, hoping to get some powerful life-saving items.
I have to say that Wren's efficiency is very high, and it only took two days to help Aaron get a level 1 spell scroll, the only pity is that what is stored in this spell scroll is not a thunder spell, but a fire level 1 elemental fireball spell.
Although it's not the thunder spell you want, it's better than nothing, the power is about 15 degrees, and it's used to deal with griffins, and the effect is still not small, but it's a little worse than the lightning spell.
On Bruce's side, he explained that it must be a thunder-based spell scroll, and if there is news, it should not disappoint Aaron, but the time it will take is not certain.
While waiting for news from Bruce's side, Aaron also went to the mission area to post a mission, offering a good reward and asking people to find some black water grass.
Black water grass is a water plant that grows in the black water swamp, this plant is very special, when it is in the water, it is no different from ordinary water plants, once it leaves the water and is exposed to the air, it will emit a rancid smell, the smell is very strong, it can be smelled two miles away, and the smell will disappear when it is soaked back in the water.
Griffons love the smell of rancidity and eat rotting corpses, and Aaron's plan is to set a trap against him and lure him over, and this black water grass is undoubtedly the most suitable thing.
A week later, Aaron left Vicky Gardens again.
A day ago, Bruce finally got a level 1 spell scroll of the thunder system, and when he got this spell scroll, he spent most of his magic crystals, a total of 1800 low-level magic crystals, and only Wren's one was obtained for free, and this kind of spell scroll is really not something that ordinary people can afford.
However, it was worth the money for Aaron, and he would not hesitate to spend twice the price in order to obtain the griffon's blood.
This time, Aaron was alone, in addition to the two level 1 spell scrolls, there were also a large number of potions, bursting potions, at least more than 300 bursting potions, although the effect was not great, as long as it was effective and could cause some impact on the griffon, maybe when the time came, it could play a key role.
Among the two level 1 spell scrolls, the one brought by Bruce, in order to be slightly stronger than the level 1 elemental fireball, the stored spell is the thunderball spell, and the spell power is 16 degrees.
With these two spell scrolls, Aaron's grasp is very large, the previous blood was two years ago, and now after two years, the griffin beast is definitely stronger than Dan Shi, it is likely that the current blood, after being absorbed by the thorn vine seeds, will be stronger than when it was real.
"I hope this time things will be done!" After a day and a half, Aaron came to the foot of the hill where the griffon was again, and looked at the top of the mountain.
Before setting the trap, Aaron first went to the top of the mountain to confirm that the griffin was still there, so he quietly left, found a suitable location in the mountain, and set the trap.
"Alright, let's set a trap in this place!" After searching the hill for a while, Aaron found a relatively flat position on the mountainside.
