Chapter 242: The Roaring Minotaur
As they spoke, the group had already crossed the lakeside, through the groves, and came to the remote clearing under the high walls of the Ring Mansion.
Far from the hustle and bustle of the prom, the lawn isn't dead either.
Mole crickets hide under the warm and moist humus layer and sing monotonous tunes, Jin Zhong'er hides in the cracks of the stone and rings the crisp chime, crickets lie on the slender neck of the rush grass, suck the dew between the leaf sheaths, and play the beautiful lute, and the autumn cicadas, after a long day, these lucky little insects who survived race against time to praise this magical world with their songs.
Until the young wizards barged in, startled the autumn insects who were playing hard, and interrupted their concerto.
Of course, neither Zhang Jixin nor Zheng Qing, nor the more sensitive Lin Guo, did not notice their impact on the insect world.
These young people have more important things to care about.
"Before we start training, let's meet your 'Peaceful Heavenly Sage'. Zhang Jixin put fingerless gloves on his hands and looked at Zheng Qing with inquiring eyes.
Lin Guo opened his schoolbag, took out a bamboo basket, opened the lid, and directed the lights and fires in the bamboo basket to hang on different branches in groups to provide the necessary light for everyone's training.
"It's just a Minotaur," the young student bowed his head and muttered, "In that case, then ......"
As he spoke, he put his hand in his arms and pulled out his Merlin medal.
The brass chassis reveals a slight brown depth in the faint light, and the six-pointed star array on the medal is inlaid with Mithril, which is far inferior in brilliance to the gem-outlined hexagram of the Order of Great Merlin. Only the flower in the center of the medal is in full bloom, the same gorgeous and solemn.
Zheng Qing's fingertips gently traced three times along the six-pointed star's trail, and at the same time, he used the magic script to recite the true name of the summoned person.
Before long, a hazy light appeared on the medal, and then a point of light jumped out from the stamens of the flowers on the other side, fell in mid-air, and suddenly turned into a silver-white halo.
A low roar sounded faintly in the aura, as if it was coming from a far, far away, seemingly intermittent.
Lin Guo swallowed loudly.
Zheng Qing turned his head, and as expected, everyone's expressions looked a little nervous.
"It's coming out soon," he hesitated, then reminded, "It just looks a little fierce, but it's actually very good-tempered...... Have you ever seen a grumpy cow?"
"Yes," Xin Fat Man shuddered rarely, and shook his head: "When I was ten years old, I went with my uncle to Ronda, Andalusia, to meet the people of the Francis family, and you know, those Spaniards were very hospitable, and they invited us to watch the bullfighting, which was a purebred North African bull turned into a wild demon...... It's horrible, it's a nightmare!"
"Please," Zheng Qing looked at the fat man helplessly: "Are you going to scare Lin Guo into crying...... Can't we just give an example of a boost?"
Fat Xin blinked his eyes in confusion, turned his head laboriously, and glanced at Lin Guo.
The little wizard was hiding behind the blue, revealing only a pair of eyes, staring at the circle of light in mid-air, as if trembling.
"Do you want some popcorn?" the fat man paused, took out a large box of popcorn from the watch storage, and brought it to several teammates: "Eat something, it can relieve mental stress......
Before the words fell, the aura hanging in mid-air shook violently.
"Boom!"
A huge bull's head poked out of the aura and looked left and right.
"Moo?!!" It shook its head as it stared at the bull'seye the size of the brass bell, and opened its mouth to yell at the onlookers young wizards.
A slightly fishy breeze rushed towards the onlookers with a roar.
Perhaps everyone thought it was a shame to be frightened by a bull's head, so no one avoided it - even Lin Guo bravely walked out from behind the blue.
"I remember you were talking about a double-headed Minotaur?!" Zhang Jixin pulled the restraint belt on his fist gloves, turned his head and looked at Zheng Qing in surprise: "How do you look like you only have one head!"
"The passage is a bit narrow...... The man of the three-pronged sword told me that the Brass Merlin Medal could not summon this creature, and although it has been adjusted to a certain extent, this passage problem has never been perfectly solved. Zheng Qing stretched out his hand, revealing a somewhat helpless expression: "If the Mithril Magic Array is replaced with a gem magic array, it will definitely come out at one time." ”
"Moo......" Another bull roar came from the aura, interrupting the small talk of the two young wizards.
Compared with the previous bull's roar, the second roar was thicker, and the middle qi was also full.
"Bang!"
The second bull's head squeezed out of its aura, and like its other head, it swayed from side to side, as if it had just passed through the door and made it feel a little uncomfortable.
"I've always been curious, since the Minotaur belongs to creatures with a certain amount of intelligence...... Why hasn't their language been translated by the school's 'General Education Array'?" "The fat man held the popcorn in his arms, squeaked and chewed, and babbled: "I guess the two sounds it just yelled at should be 'What is the matter with me?' and 'Squeeze me to death!'. ”
"Wow, that's impressive. Xiao Xiao held the notebook and stood next to Xin, the brush in his hand wrote quickly, but it did not affect him at the same time to sarcastically mock the fat man: "I didn't expect you to understand the language of the Minotaur...... If you call those two monotonous roars words. ”
"Knock, knock!"
The two cow's hooves fell to the ground, which shook the soles of everyone's feet and discouraged the impulse of Fat Xin to refute Xiao Xiao.
"I finally know why it's called the Minotaur," the fat man's attention fell entirely on the two-headed Minotaur: "The real Minotaur is completely human from the head down...... And you, the Minotaur, don't have any human form at all except for your body and hands. ”
"It has a tail!" Lin Guo's shrill voice sounded from behind the blue.
"It also has a tail...... Oh my god, that tail looks so bad, the head with more than it is deformed. Fat Xin repeated, nodded approvingly, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zheng Qing: "It can't understand us, right." ”
"Moo!" Minotaur tilted his head and yelled at the fat man.
"Oh, I think it means 'I can understand you!'" Xiao Xiao bit the pen and glanced at the fat man with pity.
"Moo. Minotaur's other head looked at Xiao Xiao and nodded very clearly.
Melpomene sighed. The fat man muttered, quietly put away his popcorn, and cautiously took a step back, landing behind Zheng Qing and Zhang Jixin.
