Clear spring water gushes upwards constantly.

As soon as Alan and the others approached, the spring water made waves.

Two strange figures slowly surfaced.

It looks like a thick python made of water.

The upper body twisted and poked out of the water, and the smooth head made it impossible to see the facial features.

The lower body of the strange snake is submerged in the spring water.

Merge with the clear spring water and leave no trace.

"This is a water treacher, a water elemental monster."

Ryan lowered his voice and explained to the young man beside him.

"For some reason, for thousands of years, the water monster has been guarding the 'teleportation spring'."

"They are happy to provide teleportation services to travelers, as long as they don't throw dirt into the water, such as feces, decomposing corpses, and poisons."

"Otherwise, you will be enraged and drag the polluting guy into the water and drown him alive!"

Uncle Ryan stood in front of the spring, and without rushing into the water to teleport, he opened the storage bag and took out a palm-sized feather.

Eren cast a curious gaze, golden feathers, which looked like they had been plucked from the griffon's body, emitted soft magical fluctuations.

"Don't go near the spring, let's try it with a summon."

Ryan placed the golden feather on the ground and whispered a incantation.

Burst!

The feather burst abruptly and turned into a thick mist.

In the mist, the mighty figure of the griffin can be faintly seen.

In the blink of an eye, the fog cleared.

Instead of feathers, a majestic golden griffin appeared in front of everyone.

Despite the resemblance, Eren knew that it wasn't really a griffin, but a magically shaped minion.

Its physical attributes and habits are the same as those of a living griffin, and it can also telepathize with the summoner and completely obey the summoner's orders.

When not needed, it can also counter-summon and turn it back into a griffon feather.

All minions, including this griffon, will disintegrate into disordered magic the moment they are killed, leaving no real flesh and blood corpses.

The Griffin family, who have been researching griffins for generations.

This magical artifact that can summon griffins is one of the Griffins' proudest research results.

The only drawback is that the enchantment material is expensive, much more expensive than domesticating a living griffon, and cannot be popularized.

With a mental wave, Ryan ordered the griffon to walk into the spring.

On the opposite side, a water monster squirmed and crawled over.

Stretch the transparent and slender body and wrap around the griffin.

The young people by the spring couldn't help but hold their breath.

As they watched nervously, the griffin was dragged down the spring by the water treacherous, and then became transparent, as if melted into the clear water.

The water treacherous, also invisible in the water, disappeared silently.

After a while, the water surface made waves again.

The water treacherous popped up, waiting for the next teleporter to approach.

Uncle Ryan closed his eyes, as if he was meditating.

Actually, it's a psychic connection with a griffin.

After a few seconds, he opened his eyes and smiled, and said to Allen and the others, "The griffin is still alive, and the teleportation spring is safe!" ”

Hearing him say this, everyone was relieved.

Next, they worked in pairs, entered the spring, and under the embrace of the water treacherous, they were teleported to the next station one after another.

……

The Teleportation Spring, Station 7.

Ethan, the circus director, stands at the water's edge with his hands in his hands.

Looking at the white spray on the water, I was stunned.

Behind him, stood five other members of the circus.

Tall, two meters tall, wearing only a leather vest on his upper body, revealing strong arms and thick body hair, "Hercules".

A "puppeteer" who is tightly wrapped in a cloak, with a low hood and a constant sound of gears turning at the joints of his limbs.

Small, child-like, a "dwarf magician" in a tuxedo, top hat, and a cane.

A "clown" wearing a colorful performance costume, weird makeup, and a red ball on his nose.

and, one of the only two female members of the circus, "The Snake Charmer".

This is a very strange-looking, almost half-naked young woman.

The hair is well-shaven, and the skull is straight and reflective.

Heavy makeup, scarlet lips, and deliberately blackened eye makeup like a panda.

In addition to jewelry such as collars, bracelets, and anklets, he also wears gold nose rings, lip rings, earrings, R-rings, and umbilical rings.

The hip-length skirt and a narrow wrap were the only fabrics on her body, revealing large patches of dark and delicate skin, as if showing off her hot body.

A giant python seven or eight meters long was weaving and coiling under the feet of the snake charmer.

From time to time, he raised his head, spit out the purple and red forked core, and licked the hostess's smooth thighs affectionately, as if he was pleasing his own spouse.

At this moment, the roar of a griffon was heard in the distance of the swamp, interrupting Ethan's thoughts.

The circus master turned around and asked lightly, "Knifeman and ventriloquist, did you reply?" ”

"Not yet." The magician shook his head and spread his hands.

"What about the animal trainers?"

"I haven't heard from him either."

Ethan sighed, his eyes becoming a little gloomy.

The agreed time has expired.

Those who should have come have not come, and those who should not have come are chasing closer and closer.

He had to think about the worst-case scenario.

After a little hesitation, Ethan said to his subordinates: "You go first, guard the entrance of the mushroom garden, and don't let outsiders break in." ”

Hercules, puppeteers, magicians, snake charmers, and clowns all lead their lives in unison, each heading towards the spring.

Six water treacherous figures surfaced, entangled five people, and the snake charmer's python.

In the blink of an eye, five people and one python collectively disappeared into the water.

Commander Ethan, stay in the last teleportation.

Before leaving, I also made some special arrangements.

As his figure melted into the water, the capsules that had been quietly thrown into the spring water were dissolving.

Within two minutes, the poison in the capsule would seep out, contaminating the teleportation spring without realizing it.

For the latecomers, a thunder was planted!

……

After Ethan left, less than half an hour later, Alan and the others also rushed to the last teleportation spring.

The crowd was about to approach, but Alan raised his hand to stop them.

"Beware, everyone! The spring water has a toxin reaction! ”

"The spring water does not produce toxins for no reason, and it seems that the traffickers have found out that we have caught up and deliberately poisoned the water."

Uncle Ryan groaned and summoned the griffin with the golden feather charm again, ordering the griffin to go into the water.

"Let's try it first, how toxic it is."

If a griffin is poisoned, the spring water can also threaten members of the Griffin family.

On the other hand, if the toxicity does not have much effect on the griffin, everyone has the confidence to carry it in the flesh.

Unexpectedly, the griffons had not even had time to come into contact with the poisonous spring before they had even had time to alert the guardians of the teleportation spring.

Six water treacherous monsters sprang out at the same time, frantically besieging the griffons!

Like six transparent pythons, they entangled the poor griffin from head to toe and dragged them into the water.

The griffons were submerged from head to toe by the spring and fluttered desperately, and the surface of the water was flooded with large waves.

Under the watchful eyes of Alan and the others, the griffin gradually stopped struggling, and finally drowned in the water.

The griffon's corpse disintegrated into discordant threads of magic and dissipated into the air, leaving only a faded, dull feather floating on the water.

With the death of the summon, the feather that served as a summoning medium also loses its magic power and degenerates into a normal feather.

"It seems that the trouble is not only that the spring water has been poisoned, but more importantly, that the water treacherous people have also been contaminated with the toxin and have become insane."

"Now they've abandoned their teleportation mission to hunt down anything that comes near the springs."

"Even if you kill all these crazy water tricks, it's useless! Kill them all, who will help us teleport? ”

Uncle Ryan sighed, frowning.

Could it be that this pursuit trip can only be abandoned halfway?

"Alan! I remember that your enlightenment teacher was a master of apothecary, do you have a way to neutralize the toxins in the spring water? ”

Ferrin looked at Alan with anticipation in his eyes.

"If the spring water is purified, the water treacherous people will return to normal!"

"Well......" Alan touched his chin and said slowly, "I can try it." ”

"What do you need, just say!" Fei Lin urged excitedly.

"The first step is to take samples of the spring water, and I have to analyze the types of toxins in the water before I know if there is a way to detoxify."

And then ...... I'll need some more time to refine the antidote, so be prepared to be patient. ”

"Of course it's fine!"

Ryan rushed to answer for his son.

"It's already dark, and this is the end of today's adventure, so you will camp by the spring, and watch out for the area away from the water trick, and I will be responsible for collecting the spring."

Uncle Ryan is worthy of being the head of the family, leading the way and acting resolutely.

In the form of a griffin, with a marching pot in its front paws, it soars high into the air, then swoops down and flies against the surface of the spring!

Before the treacherous could react, Ryan had already swept past and landed in the camp, carrying half a pot of spring water in his front paws.

Alan took the pot, returned to his tent, and began to study......

Study a fart!
