Across the heavens, I am the Avatar Sword Master

Chen Yu finally understood why Harry liked to go to Hagrid when he had plenty of time.

The reason is very simple. Hogwarts Castle is very large.

The cabin where Hagrid lives is on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

There is no broomstick to ride on, and no ring to manifest to move instantly.

Walking from Hogwarts Castle to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Chen Yu learned what it means to "look at the mountain and run to death".

After getting up in the morning and having breakfast, we headed to the Forbidden Forest. We walked out of the castle, walked through a large field, and arrived at the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Nearly two hours had passed!

When he saw the cabin where Hagrid lived, Chen Yu did not knock on the door or go in to say hello. Instead, he took out the snake charm and made himself invisible, then slowly walked into the forbidden forest.

The reason why he chose to enter the Forbidden Forest from a place relatively close to Hagrid's cabin despite the possibility of being discovered by Hagrid was also very simple.

There is a road leading deep into the Forbidden Forest.

Although this road paved with gravel looks bumpy, rugged, and overgrown with vegetation, it is much easier to walk than in a completely undeveloped place.

The air in the Forbidden Forest is relatively humid, and there is a smell of rotting leaves in the air.

Chen Yu held the snake talisman in his left hand and the wand in his right hand. After using the cleaning spell to remove the smell from his body, he carefully stepped on the rotten leaves and moved forward slowly.

It was already past ten o'clock at noon, and the Forbidden Forest still looked a bit eerie.

There are many tall trees growing here, which can easily block the sun's rays.

Under the shade of the trees on both sides of the path, weeds no taller than an adult grew.

Sometimes you can see various bugs on the ground, crawling wantonly on the gravel road.

A dozen unknown birds suddenly appeared from the woods on both sides, flying straight into the sky.

Chen Yu tightened his robe tightly, which brought him some psychological security.

In the real world, Chen Yu didn't have time to go to the forest. The largest forest he went to when he was a child was the small forest planted in his hometown.

At that time, the woods in my hometown had not been cut down and crops had not yet been planted.

The old people in their hometown were worried that their children would be in danger in the woods, so they scared the children by saying that there were snakes in the woods.

Of course, the old people are not lying. Chen Yu did see snakes in the woods when he was a child.

It was a cauliflower snake, non-venomous.

But it still frightened Chen Yu a lot, and even left some psychological shadow.

Slowly, Chen Yu grew up, and the forest was cut down, and crops were planted neatly.

Later, I was admitted to college, and later successfully landed ashore. Occasionally I would go back to my hometown to help with the autumn harvest. Looking at the golden fields, I felt so happy, but I felt like something was missing in my heart.

Now walking in the forbidden forest, Chen Yu once again experienced the faint fear of stepping into the jungle.

The Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts is much more exciting than the grove back home.

There are not only venomous snakes here, but also three-headed rune snakes.

This is a snake with fangs on the rightmost head. Unlike the three-headed dog Luwei, the rune snake rarely lives long. Its three heads have different thoughts and sometimes attack each other.

Wizards often see the right head of the rune snake making a hissing sound, which makes the other heads feel noisy, and the other two heads have joined forces to bite them off.

The rune snake's level is xxxx.

Creatures deemed dangerous by the Ministry of Magic require specialized knowledge and skilled wizards to deal with them.

In addition, there are also xxxxx level magical creatures living in the Forbidden Forest.

Fivex levels represent known wizard-killing animals, extremely dangerous creatures that are impossible to tame or tame.

For example, the little cute Acromantula in Hagrid's eyes.

This is a kind of giant spider that is cruel in nature and likes to eat human flesh. It has eight black eyes and its whole body is covered with thick black hair. When their legs are stretched out to both sides of the body, they can span up to fifteen feet.

The venom secreted by the Acromantula is very valuable, and a pint (roughly 500 ml) can be sold for 100 galleons in Diagon Alley.

In addition, Chen Yu also learned from the senior little wizards that there were dangerous magical creatures such as werewolves, trolls, giants, Tebo warthogs, etc. living in the forbidden forest.

These magical creatures will give an adult wizard a headache if they encounter them, let alone a fledgling wizard.

It's no wonder that Dumbledore doesn't allow students to enter the Forbidden Forest. The Forbidden Forest is too dangerous for young wizards.

Chen Yu was invisible and moving forward while looking at the situation in the surrounding trees.

He saw a creature that looked like a monkey and a frog, hunting in the trees.

Its skin is mottled green, with short horns on its head, and a big mouth that always looks like it's grinning strangely, revealing razor-sharp teeth.

It was chasing a crow, and when it was about to succeed, the pustule on its head suddenly flashed red, frightening it and running away immediately.

Chen Yu had seen this creature in the textbook "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". It was a magical creature called the Tree Monkey Frog, level xx, and fed on small lizards and birds.

Just as the tree monkey frog hurriedly jumped to another tree, a snake with wings suddenly jumped out from a nearby tree and wrapped around the tree monkey frog's body with lightning speed.

Naturally, the tree monkey frog would not surrender and began to use its teeth to bite the snake seven inches away.

This kind of snake is called a bird snake and has fine feathers and wings. The feathers on its body are as hard as scales.

This kind of bird snake has legs, but they are usually hidden in the feathers of the body and rarely exposed.

Bird snakes generally feed on insects, mice, and birds, but they sometimes prey on monkeys.

It is aggressive towards humans who come near it, especially when protecting its eggs.

Chen Yu saw that the resistance of the tree monkey frog was better than nothing. After a little resistance, the bird and snake opened its mouth wide and swallowed it.

The body of the bird snake is very extensible. It can expand and contract at will more than ordinary snakes. Some bird snakes are so big that they can fill a house, and they are so small that they can retract their bodies into a cabinet. They are ??? level creatures. .

Just as the bird and snake were about to return to the tree to digest their food, an eagle cried out from the sky.

The huge black shadow fell from the sky, first grabbed the bird snake's body with the eagle talons in front, then pecked the bird snake's head with its eagle beak, and lifted its twitching body away.

The whole process is smooth and smooth, in one go.

From the tree monkey frog catching the crow, to the bird snake hunting the tree monkey frog, to the griffon hunting the bird snake, the whole process only takes less than a minute and a half.

Chen Yu was stunned as he saw a magical animal version of "a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole behind it".

The griffon is an XXX-level creature like the bird and snake. It feeds on raw meat and has a ferocious temperament.

The front half of the body is like a giant eagle, with the head, forelimbs and wings of an eagle, and the back half of the body is like a lion, with the body, hind legs and tail of a lion.

The body of the griffon is very huge. When standing on only four legs, excluding the length of the tail, the adult griffon is 10 feet (about 2 to 3 meters) long. The male weighs about 1100 pounds (about half a ton). It has a pair of wings. Wings spread 7 to 8 meters.

It can fly in any weather and has the instinct to sense weather changes.

It has a long lifespan, and it is recorded that a griffon can live for at least 150 years.

The griffin appeared very early, first appearing in ancient Akkadian (Babylonian-Assyrian) mythology. In the legend of Marduk killing the monster and becoming a god, he killed the griffin. The third behemoth.

Later, the image of the griffon appeared in Greek mythology, pulling carts for the god Zeus, the sun god Apollo, and the goddess of revenge Nemesis.

Because the lion and the eagle are regarded as the kings of beasts and birds respectively, they were regarded by ancient Muggles as symbols of divinity.

In "Rare Bird or Beast?" According to the book "Gryphon Research", the author speculates that there may be three origins of the griffin.

One is that some wizards speculate that the origin of the griffon may be the same as the Sphinx, Minotaur, and Medusa, who were unlucky ones who failed to transform themselves.

It is speculated that a wizard in ancient times was entangled in using a transformation spell to turn himself into a lion, the king of beasts, or an eagle, the king of birds. Or, when using the transformation spell, he wanted to gain both the flying ability of an eagle and the power of a lion. As a result, Greed caused the front half of his body to turn into an eagle and the back half to become a lion.

In the end, the wizard lost his intelligence and turned into a miserable beast with magical blood.

The second is that the griffon is the result of a certain magic experiment in ancient civilization, and is a product cultivated by wizards. Like the basilisk, it is a magical creature cultivated by ancient wizards.

The third is that griffins, like unicorns, fire dragons, and centaurs, are purely natural and original magical creatures. They are creatures created by the extraordinary magic of nature and have nothing to do with the mysterious experiments of wizards. relation.
