All things are three at Hogwarts

Allen felt a little embarrassed. He didn't take it seriously at first. He was only thinking about the rewards from the system!

"Do you know what this monster is?" Allen asked quickly, wanting to get more information.

It is absolutely impossible to be a basilisk. There are no traces of a basilisk crawling in the Forbidden Forest, and it is impossible for a basilisk to release such a large amount of poisonous gas.

Otherwise, a large number of the young wizards at Hogwarts would have been poisoned.

All these signs told Allen that what Tina said was correct, and there was indeed another monster in the secret room.

And this monster should be particularly interested in birds, so it will go directly to the Forbidden Forest instead of staying in the castle.

There is also a possibility that the basilisk climbed out of the secret room through a pipe, and it also has its own passage that leads directly to the Forbidden Forest.

At this moment, Gaia suddenly looked behind Allen warily.

Allen quickly jumped to Gaia's side and looked warily in the direction where he was just now. He also heard a rustling sound.

The trees around them turned yellow-brown at a speed visible to the naked eye and were about to die; while the trees a little further away were not dead yet, but the black poisonous gas turned into black lines and wrapped around the entire tree trunk.

The grass rotted quickly, and the leaves turned from lush green to gray-white, then quickly withered and became brittle, shattering and turning into black ash at the slightest touch of the night breeze.

A disgusting smell of rusty metal gradually spread in the air.

The open space where Allen and the others were located turned into an extremely desolate doomsday scene.

In this silence and darkness, the fear of death hangs over the land.

"You can see this monster with your own eyes!" Gaia stared warily at the direction from which the strange sound came. "We should get out of here quickly!" Gaia suggested.

Allen believes that it is a wise move to temporarily avoid the edge when one does not know the strength of his opponent.

Allen climbed on Gaia's back, and Gaia spread her wings and flew high into the sky.

Soon, a strange creature appeared in the clearing.

Alan had to admit that this was the weirdest creature he had ever seen.

It's not big, only the size of a hen.

Just looking at its size, you can hardly imagine that such a small animal can exhale poisonous gas that can kill flying birds.

This poisonous gas is extremely overbearing. Wherever this monster walks, no grass or shrubs can survive.

Its head is raised high, with small patterns like a crown of yellow and blue, which is also a bit like a rooster's comb.

Its eyes are shaped like a toad and its wings are red, yellow and blue.

It walks on four legs and is very majestic.

The front feet are yellow and blue, like a rooster's paws.

The hind feet are serrated and webbed, like a frog's feet.

"It is the monster Cockatrice in your castle." Gaia said in a deep voice.

Allen finally knew what kind of monster this was!

The mysterious animal illustrated book he had read before had a few brief introductions to this monster.

It is said that an old rooster laid an egg, and a toad hatched the egg. The cockatrice came from this egg. This is very similar to the birth situation of the basilisk.

Regardless, this horrific hybrid is always the subject of horror stories.

Since the cockatrice can kill people with its poisonous gas alone, only a few people have seen it.

Even fewer people know exactly how to breed cockatrices.

But it is well documented that cockatrices were thought to be responsible for the plague that ravaged Rome in the 9th century.

In 1202, a cockatrice hidden in a well caused a plague in Vienna.

In 1474, in Basel, Switzerland, some Muggles saw a rooster laying an egg. However, before the egg hatched, the rooster was burned alive in front of thousands of people. Also thrown into the fire.

Because there were very few descriptions of cockatrices in the mysterious animal illustrated books, and there were no patterns to draw from, Alan had not thought of it before.

"Gaia, let me down, maybe I can solve it!" Allen, who knew its origin, wanted to go down and meet this monster for a while.

"Alan, it's not just poisonous gas and venom that's powerful! Any bird that sees its gaze will die for no reason." Gaia disapproved of Alan's risking his own life.

"I will try to be careful, someone has to step forward!" Allen felt that he still had a high chance of winning.

After all, the cockatrice's biggest weapons, gas and venom, pose no threat to Allen at all!

Gaia saw Allen's firm tone and was determined to deal with the cockatrice, so she had no choice but to land behind the cockatrice and let Allen climb off its back.

Gaia spread her wings and flew up again, hovering in the air, waiting for an opportunity to attack the little monster.

"Fainted!" Allen took advantage of his unpreparedness and quickly issued a magic spell.

The spell successfully hit the Cockatrice. The Cockatrice turned around instantly, glared at Allen angrily, and let out a hiss that symbolized death.

The spell has no effect on this monster!

The moment it turned around, Allen closed his eyes.

"Petrify them all!" After hearing the argument, Allen cast a spell again without giving up.

The spell hit the Cockatrice, and the Cockatrice flapped its small wings angrily, flew a few feet in the air, stretched out its two sharp front claws, and rushed toward Allen's face.

The fishy wind blew into his nostrils, and Allen made a mistake with his foot, dodging the cockatrice's sharp blow.

At the same time, the wand disappeared from Allen's hand in an instant, and was replaced by the silver sword given to Allen by the Unicorn King Gaethilis.

Allen swung hard and struck in the direction of the cockatrice he felt.

Allen successfully slashed the cockatrice, feeling ecstatic in his heart.

But in an instant, Allen felt a pain in his hand, and the cockatrice's neck suddenly lengthened, bit Allen hard, and sprayed out venom.

Allen felt dizzy for a moment. He couldn't help but open his eyes. Blood was gurgling from one side of the cockatrice's body.

Its neck twisted and stretched in an incredible arc, and its mouth bit Allen's hand fiercely.

The worst part was that Allen was staring directly into its toad-like eyes.

Gaia neighed sadly, swooped down from the sky, and trampled down the cockatrice's lower body.

The cockatrice instantly let go of Allen and turned to bite Gaia.

Gaia completely ignored her own safety and kicked the Cockatrice like crazy, her hoofs falling like rain.

Allen felt that the sky was filled with the shadow of Gaia's hooves.

The Cockatrice can't escape Gaia's attack range no matter what.

In desperation, it was determined to die and bit Gaia's leg. Even if the lower body was kicked to pieces, it would not let go.
