Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 556 556. The Swamp and the Green Knight
"Let's go."

Savannah turned around and continued walking forward.

Scott still followed behind her.

"Those wolves seem to have no intelligence, just beasts?"

"They were originally beasts." Savannah said, "It's just that they have been living in the Holy Land to get the magic power."

Scott asked again, "So there must be a lot of beasts here?"

"A lot indeed."

As Savannah spoke, she suddenly raised her head.

Scott followed her gaze, and saw a leopard of the same size crouching on the oak tree, watching them covetously.

Scott raised his wand silently.

The oak branch where the leopard was perched seemed to come to life in an instant, and it was tied up before it could react.

The leopard immediately roared, trying to destroy the branch with its minions.

Its minions were extremely sharp, and it bit off a branch just by turning its head.

Seeing that it was about to get out of trouble, Scott shook the wand in his hand again.

"Fractured."

Magic power formed an invisible blade, and with Scott's hands, it easily cut the leopard's throat.

Both Scott and Savannah dodged a little as blood flowed.

Next, on their way forward, they encountered many beasts.

These beasts are generally huge in size and ferocious, and even herbivores will actively attack people.

Because they had to deal with the attacks of these beasts, their progress was also slowed down a lot.

Soon, it was noon, but they still hadn't walked out of the oak forest.

"This forest seems to be bigger than your sea of ​​oaks."

Scott sat on the root of the tree, watched the oily barbecue on the campfire, took out a bottle of butter beer and handed it to Savannah.

After entering Avalon, Scott discovered that the [Eye of Odin] space could not be opened, and they could only have a picnic.

"It would take us all day to get out of the woods."

Savannah reached out to accept the butter beer, pulled out the cork, and took a sip quite boldly.

Scott took out another bottle and took two sips. "Avalon is said to be surrounded by swamps, woods and mist, and can only be reached by boat."

Savannah nodded, "The legend is true, after passing through this oak forest, we can reach the swamp."

She took out a small knife and skillfully sliced ​​the grilled meat into pieces.

Scott turned wooden blocks into plates, cutlery and forks.

"I'll leave the issue of the boat to you."

She handed Scott the plate with the roast.

"Thank you, for the boat, of course there is no problem."

After the two had a full meal, they rested for a while before moving on.

As we moved forward, Scott asked curiously, "Druids should be able to tame those wild beasts as helpers?"

"I can do it," Savannah said, "but there's no need, they're too weak."

Scott nodded in agreement first, and then asked, "Is there a more powerful beast ahead?"

"There are indeed more powerful beasts." Savannah said with a smile, "Although they can't be called very strong, they may be able to help."

Scott understood, "It seems that your goal is very clear."

Savannah told him, "This is all information recorded in the family records. My ancestors once served the fairy queen who ruled Avalon, and we know everything here."

What follows is another journey of repelling all kinds of beasts without stopping.

Before dark, they finally came out of the oak forest and came to the edge of an endless swamp.

Scott looked up at the dim sky.

"It seems that there is also a normal day and night cycle here."

Savanna said: "It is dangerous to cross the swamp at night. We will continue tomorrow."

Scott has no comment.

He looked curiously at the calm and clear swamp like a mirror, "Is there anything in it?"

Savannah said: "There used to be a group of lake banshees living here. Although they have disappeared, they left behind the green knights."

"Green Knight?"

Scott had also heard the fabled name.

"An invisible magical animal with intelligence and danger."

Savannah explained.

"They only obey the banshee of the lake. After the banshee of the lake disappears, they will actively attack all creatures passing through this swamp."

Scott asked, "If that's the case, why don't we fly there?"

Savannah looked up at the increasingly dark sky, "The sky in this swamp is forbidden."

Scott raised an eyebrow and waved his wand.

A crow emerged from the tip of the wand, spread its wings and flew forward.

When it flew over the swamp, it began to fall in a straight line.

"Quack...quack..."

The crow screamed in panic, flapping its wings desperately, but couldn't stop the speed of its fall.

Scott waved his wand again to pull it over, but the calm lake began to bubble.

The water tumbling, gathered into a tall figure.

The figure swung its arm, and split the crow in half with an ax that was also made of water.

Then it turned its head and stared at Scott and Savannah with two glowing green eyes.

"Is this the Green Knight?"

Scott looked at each other with great interest.

"His body is water?"

Savanna said: "Its body is invisible and invisible, and it is more stealthy than a ghost. When it attacks, it will gather water to transform into a human form. In addition, it can also manipulate water into weapons and mounts."

Scott raised his eyebrows, "So, even if you crush the body it formed from the flowing water, you can't really hurt it?"

"Exactly."

Savannah and the Green Knight looked at each other.

"But as long as we don't step into the confines of this swamp, it won't attack us."

As soon as her words fell, the green knight's body turned into flowing water and fell, and amidst the rippling water, the swamp returned to calm again.

"It's foggy," Savannah said again.

On the swamp, patches of mist slowly rose and drifted slowly.

The fog became thicker and thicker in a very short period of time, and soon covered the entire swamp.

"Is that what you mean by danger?" Scott asked.

If you cross the swamp at night, you will be caught in a thick fog that can't be seen with your fingers. Not only will you be completely lost, but you will also have to deal with the attack of the Green Knight.

Savannah nodded, "In foggy conditions, the Green Knight can even use the fog to condense its body."

"That's really dangerous."

Scott turned around, bent down to pick up dry branches on the ground, and prepared to start a bonfire.

"You haven't said how we're going to get rid of them."

"Use fire."

Savannah also came over to help.

"As long as we hold up the torches, they dare not come near us."

"But they can gouge through the bottom of our boat," Scott said.

Savannah smiled and said, "So our boat must be very strong."

Scott nodded, "No problem."

The two hugged the branches and found an open place.

Scott set up the branches and lit the bonfire.

Then, he turned two thick branches into two chairs.

"What if you want to destroy the Green Knight?"

After he sat down, he took out some food and gave it to Savannah.

"Still use fire."

Savanna leaned the long wooden stick in her hand against the tree, sat down, took the food, and put the bread by the fire to warm it up.

"It is necessary to use extremely high temperature fire to vaporize their bodies in an instant after they gather water and become humanoid."

"I see."

Scott nodded and began to eat.

Savannah said: "Salazar Slytherin has been in and out, and he should have told Medea Slytherin of this information, so we may not reach the Apple Island in the center of the swamp sooner than her. "

"It's okay." Scott smiled slightly, "arriving earlier than Medea may not necessarily be a good thing."

"I understand what you're betting on."

Savannah picked up the baked bread that smelled of wheat.

"You're betting that Medea Slytherin isn't so good."

Scott said: "Everyone knows what I'm betting on. I think that's why your grandfather and the others won't block Medea from entering the passage."

Savannah said, "You want to see Medea Slytherin betraying her father, but it's not [-] percent sure."

Scott laughed. "That must be nice."

Savannah asked, "What if Medea Slytherin always sided with her father?"

"I'm ready," Scott said.

Savanna didn't ask him about his specific preparations, she just said, "Since you are confident, I won't ask."

"I have to have faith in myself."

After dinner, Scott took out two tents, built them next to the bonfire, and placed defense and warning magic around them.

After saying good night to each other, he and Savannah went into their tents to sleep.

The peaceful night passed quickly.

When Scott came out of the tent early in the morning, Savannah was already up.

She stood ahead, watching the sunrise reflected in the swamp.

"Good morning."

Scott walked over, also watching the sunrise.

At this time, the thick fog over the swamp had dissipated, and the mild morning light dyed the mirror-like water surface a warm color.

"Is this sun a false phantom, or a reflection of the real sun?"

"I've heard about the 'Tower of Babel'."

Savannah turned to look at Scott.

"Luna told me."

"She asked my opinion on the matter," said Scott. "I think I can tell you."

"You want to create a new world where there are only wizards and magic."

Savannah smiled slyly.

"So, is the sun in the new world a false phantom, or a reflection of the real sun?"

Scott suddenly understood.

"False phantoms do not nourish anything," he said.

So to say……

Whether it is Avalon or [Odin's Eye] there are creatures living in the space, so the sunlight in it should be real sunlight.

And the sky in the secret realms of "Niflheim" and "Jötunheim" may be a false phantom, because there is no grass and no living things in these two secret realms.

But, how did those ancient wizards let the real sun shine in the different space?
"It's time for you to build a ship," Savannah reminded.

"You're right." Scott withdrew his thoughts.

However, before building the ship, the two had a breakfast first.

After breakfast, Scott felled an oak tree, cleared the branches, and turned the trunk of the oak tree into a small boat for four people.

Savannah said: "Such a ship can't withstand the attack of the Green Knight."

"It's not over yet."

Scott reached out and waved his wand.

A bright silver figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

"This is?"

Savannah looked curiously at this figure that seemed to be made of quicksilver.

"Battle alchemy dolls." Scott said, "Fortunately, I considered in advance that the different space cannot be opened, and converted all battle alchemy dolls and 'summoned beasts' into a state that can be summoned by contract."

Of course, the battle alchemy doll and the "summoned beast" are not real creatures, and the summoning contract he signed with the crows does not apply.

The contract he used came from the [Hvagmir Ring], which was also recorded in the animal skin scroll he obtained in Jotunheim.

Under Scott's order, the body of the silver alchemy puppet unfolded like a stream of water, wrapping the hull and bottom of the boat.

Scott nodded in satisfaction, and waved his wand again.

"Edgar, Syrain."

Two human figures appeared in front of him again.

It was Edgar and Syrain who had changed their appearance.

The human figure of Fire Raven Edgar has fiery red hair, a crow-shaped mask with a sharp beak on his face, red feathers on his body, and the wings on his back are folded.

The sailfish Sirene turned into a fish-headed human body, covered with shiny scales, with limbs and limbs, and the fins on its back still stood up like a banner.

"Then it's up to you to escort me."

Scott to Edgar and Syrain.

Both Edgar and Sirene nodded. They were connected with Scott, and they knew what to do without Scott's instructions.

"Let's go then."

Scott waved.

The silver surrounding the boat flowed, bringing the boat to the edge of the swamp.

Edgar and Syrain were the first to board the ship.

Then came Scott and Savannah.

"Whoa..."

The boat launches automatically.

With a wave of Xirein's hand, the water at the stern of the boat began to surge, pushing the boat forward.

"Whoa..."

"Whoa..."

The surrounding water also began to surge.

"coming."

Savannah reminded.

"It's ok."

Scott sat in the boat and did nothing.

"Whoa..."

The water surged high and turned into a few knights on tall horses, holding axes and spears and attacking the boat from all directions.

Edgar, who was standing at the bow, spread out the wings on his back and opened his hands at the same time.

Fiery flames erupted.

The flames rolled to form a circle, enveloping the boat inside, and then spread outward in an instant.

The few green knights who came into contact with the flame immediately evaporated, and the other green knights immediately turned into water and fell, escaping into the water.

Edgar flapped his wings, and the spreading flames condensed into a ring again, constantly turning around the boat.

"Boom!"

The hull shook.

Scott and Savannah looked at the bottom of the boat at the same time.

"no problem."

Scott to Savannah.

"The battle doll will guard the bottom of the ship."

He turned around and ordered again.

"Sirein, speed up!"

Xi Leiyin nodded, the water at the stern of the boat rolled like boiling instantly, and the boat cut through the calm water like an arrow leaving the string, and flew forward like flying.
