Chapter 65 Sphinx (Modified)

Allen rode on the broom and followed the unicorns straight into the sea. He thought that the unicorns must be greeted by choking sea water, but it didn't.

A miracle happened. After jumping off the cliff, the unicorn headed by Galishis still galloped in the air unwillingly. Like butterflies that have broken out of their cocoons after a lot of training, huge, white wings have grown on their backs in Gesilis. Against the backdrop of the blood-red sky and sea water, the vigorous and beautiful postures of the unicorns are extremely holy.

Gaia slid a beautiful arc in the sky, swooped down to the sea level, vibrated her huge white wings, and flew to Alan who was riding a broom.

The unicorns who can spread their wings and soar are extremely excited and fly tirelessly. Until a huge corrugated barrier blocked their way. The unicorns who had tasted the sweetness rushed over the barrier in one go.

The unicorns, who were already ready for battle, fell from the sky to the ground one after another. After enjoying the thrill of flying, losing this ability can't help but make the unicorns panic.

Allen noticed that they seemed to have returned to the square where the unicorn colony was at the beginning, but it was different from the square, everything was shrouded in a dim yellow mist, and the huge white sphinx in the middle of the square The statue was also gone, replaced by a monster with the body of a gigantic lion but the head of a beautiful woman.

"Sphinx, Sphinx!" In an instant, Allen recognized the origin of the monster. Of course, Allen didn't ignore its huge, sharp, poisonous claws glowing with blue light, and the huge black wings on its body. These wings are obviously larger than those of unicorns, and once stretched out, they can definitely cover the sky and block out the sun. It is conceivable that once it gets into trouble, the unicorns will surely be doomed.

Allen remembered the information about the Sphinx that he had seen before: Sphinx is the most feared monster for desert travelers. When it opens its mouth and spits out, the wind of plague will blow out from its mouth, making those who touch it seriously ill. With a wave of wings, a desert storm will be created. However, the weirdest thing is its eyes, which can't see anything at all, but no one can resist its gaze. Because although it can't see anything in its eyes, its gaze contains the mysteries of the whole universe; when you are stared at by it, unless you can solve all its puzzles, you will not be able to move. Not as good as Medusa's eyes, but its claws are super powerful, and you'll be stuck in an eternal guessing game until it closes its eyes. (Unless it wants to, because it really likes to be riddles, and it doesn't sleep!) But if you gain its power, your intelligence will improve, because it's super intelligent.

After gaining and losing their wings, Allen thought that the unicorns would panic for a long time. But he was surprised to find that it was only a brief panic. Under the leadership of Gesilis, they returned to the appearance of warriors.

It seems that Gesilis seems to have been prepared for a long time. With the help of Gaia, it dropped a mirror, a silver sword, and a roll of ancient parchment from the storage crown.

"Alan, please take out Fowles' magic ball again." Gehilis asked Allen.

Allen held out the magic ball, and Gesilis recited an ancient spell with weird and complicated syllables. The magic ball slowly rose from Allen's hand, emitting a soft bright yellow light.

"Alan, stand under the magic ball quickly, cut your finger with the silver sword, and drip blood onto the contract." Gehilis spoke anxiously, for fear that the Sphinx would open his eyes.

After Allen did this series of actions, Gesilis ordered Allen to draw the seal of the hexagram on the ground with a silver sword, and held the bronze mirror in his hand. After Gesilis gave an order, Allen would To jump up from the formation, slap the bronze mirror on the head of the sphinx.

Although Alan didn't know why, seeing Gesilis' serious expression, he also knew that the matter was of great importance, so he agreed. Fortunately, Allen has a strong memory and comprehension ability, and he completely understood Geshilis' meaning in such a short time.

Gesilis uttered another incantation, and the Sphinx trembled, as if about to wake up from a deep sleep.

The moment its eyelids trembled and were about to open, Gesilis yelled, "Get on top of it!"

When Allen rode Neptune again and looked at this giant beast up close, he felt its amazing momentum even more. Allen concentrated his attention, and accurately shot the bronze mirror on top of the Sphinx's head. The sphinx is awake!

"According to the ancient contract, you can ask me a question. If I can't answer it, you can pass the final test; if I answer it, you will all die." Sphinx's majestic voice resounded throughout the land. world.

"What is a man?" Allen didn't ask this question casually. He had read this sentence when he was in the library earlier: "Sphinx spends his whole life thinking about what is a man, but every day Moments later it overturns its answer."

Sure enough, Sphinx pondered for a long time, but did not answer Alan. "I can't say exactly what a person is, you guys can pass."

As soon as the Sphinx finished speaking, the entire Eris illusion turned into countless flying fragments. The yellow mist seemed to be grabbed by a big hand. Alan and the others returned to the unicorn colony again. .

"My wings can move, I can fly!" Gaia's surprised voice came. Allen turned his head and looked, and Gaia was already soaring happily in the air, roaring tirelessly to express her joy. It's not the only unicorn doing this.

Geshilis smiled a little sadly, and as if thinking of something, it slammed into Allen who was holding the silver sword.

Allen was smiling and looking at Gaia. Although he reacted quickly, the sharp point of the sword still drew a deep bloodstain on Galishis' body.

Allen was shocked, and Gaia and the unicorns flying in the sky also flew back in an instant.

"Father!" Gaia was shocked, for a moment, she thought her father was going to follow her mother.

As a result, Galishis looked up to the sky and laughed, "It's recovered, it's recovered! The curse on our unicorn is completely lifted!"

Everyone looked at Galish's wound with both surprise and joy. The deep bloodstain was slowly healing from the inside to the outside at a speed visible to the naked eye!
