Following the news he had received from Hagrid, Evan commanded Buckbeak to fly deeper into the swamp. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

They flew in the white mist, keeping an eye on the ground.

Despite the abundance of water and grass in this place, few creatures that live in the forest come here.

There are many places in this swamp that are bottomless and dangerous.

It looks no different from ordinary ground, but if you accidentally fall into it, you can only wait for death in a desperate struggle.

Only the most experienced explorer, like Hagrid, will be able to find a way into the depths of the swamp after years of searching.

Although the animals of the forest rarely come close, that doesn't mean that there are no other creatures in this swamp.

In fact, the opposite is true, there is no invasion of forest species, and in the unique environment of the Everglades, many special life forms that are rare in the outside world are bred here.

They influence each other to form a complete ecosystem.

In the middle of his journey, Evan saw patches and patches of mandrakes.

Mandrake, also known as mandrake root, is a powerful restorative.

It is used to restore a person who has been transformed or who has been under a spell to its original state, and is an important part of most antidotes.

The other day, in Professor Sprout's herb class, Evan had repotted a mandrake seedling.

In the vicinity of the mandrake, he also saw dozens of magical animals that looked like a piece of wood.

They have claws, fins on their claws, and very sharp teeth, and they glide through swamps.

These amazing creatures are swamp diggers that feed mainly on small mammals and plants.

They can cause serious injuries to pedestrians' feet and necks, but the favorite food is the rhizome of the mandrake.

The rhizomes of the mandrake are an ugly image of a baby capable of making a piercing cry, and the swamp diggers feed on these rhizomes, and when they have eaten them, they pull out the mandrake and see a bloody and tangled mess.

The rhizomes of the mandrake were eaten by swamp diggers, and they could no longer cry.

In addition to the swamp diggers, Evan also sees two Hinkpunks.

They hide in puddles on the side of the road, with only the lanterns hanging from their front feet showing a faint glow.

In this swamp, which is always full of fog, this light can lure travelers or passing animals to follow.

Hinkpunk will give the wrong instructions, leading them deliberately into bottomless swampy areas or puddles.

Wait until the traveler dies and feed on their decomposing corpses.

Moving on, next to a large field of reeds, Evan also saw a creature that looked like an enlarged firefly.

Its tail glows with a reddish or yellow misty glow with sharp spikes.

It floats silently a few feet above the surface of the water, catching plankton within.

But before he could fly far, he was eaten by a large fish covered with green scales and sharp fangs.

In addition, there are several round, gray-fleshed bugs crawling slowly in a swamp overgrown with mushrooms.

The creature had a huge mouth and kept devouring the mushrooms in front of it.

Behind its body, there is also a hole that spills green slime outward.

It was as if they had entered a new magical world, and the sights they saw were completely different from what they were used to.

"The ancient ruins you spoke of are in this place?" said Keresis, frowning.

"That's where Hagrid met the human-headed sphintome and magonifer, and we're going a little further east. Evan replied.

"I'd be absolutely crazy to come with you to such a place, and beware of the human-headed sphinx manticore, which can be a nuisance beyond your imagination!" said Keresses, "and, I doubt the ruins you speak of will be of any value to explore, I've seen too many ancient structures like this, and there is nothing in them but rubble." ”

As the place where the Evil God Statue was first discovered, even if only rubble remains, it is worth exploring for Aven.

"I'm in my boat, you just have to follow the plan we set before, I asked Hagrid about the habits of the human-headed sphin-tailed manticore, and as long as nothing happens, there is absolutely no problem. ”

"Let's talk about it first, even if your plan and trap work, I can only control that guy for an hour, you hurry!" Keresis stared at Evan grimly, "If you don't come out in an hour, I won't go in and save you." ”

"I know!" Evan nodded, "I'll keep an eye on the time." ”

After a long history of encountering dangerous magical beasts, wizards have come together to find a set of effective control methods.

For example, use stun charms, special potions and herbs, and traps.

Just like the human-headed sphinage manticore, the skin of this monster is immune to most of the magic texts, and it is very aggressive, very dangerous, and it is very difficult to defeat it head-on.

Evan didn't know if Keresis would be able to do it, but it would definitely come at a great cost.

Thankfully, they weren't here to defeat the human-headed sphinx.

Only if you can trap this guy for a while, enough for Evan to complete his exploration of the ruins.

After consulting the relevant information, Evan chose a trap tool that met his own requirements.

He asked Sirius to help him get the trap and send it to Moody's office, a magical item that specializes in dealing with dangerous magical animals.

As long as it is triggered, several chains can be quickly stretched out to entangle the magical beast that has fallen into the trap.

Under the control of the wizard, the chain is difficult to break free, and the duration is related to the magic of the wizard controlling the trap.

With the strength of Keresis, it was more than enough to control the human-headed sphinage for more than an hour.

Of course, he was very unhappy that he was asked by Aven to come over and do this kind of thing, but there was nothing he could do.

The current situation is that no matter what Evan asks, Keresis will try to meet them as best he can.

What's more, there was no danger in this matter, it only needed Keresis to consume some mana.

For the past few years, Hagrid has been feeding the sphinoid manticore, which lives in the swamps.

Evan learned from Hagrid that the sphinx's preferred food was piggyback meat.

The Dwarf Pig Monster is a magical animal that lives in rural Europe, Russia, and the United States.

It looks like a stunted piglet, with long legs, a stubby tail, and slitted black eyes.

It will often sneak into the pigsty, eat the sow's milk with the piglets, and wreak havoc.

If left unnoticed for a long time, the piggy monster will grow.

The longer and the bigger it grows, the more devastated the farm it enters.

Evan also had Sirius get him a lot of piggy meat and send it to Moody's office along with the trap.

Now, they were all in the package that Keresis was carrying. (To be continued.) )
