Chapter 1274 Gray Bird
"Not long after Bell was born, his mother was killed by the snake man. Gray Bird and I rescued the little guy from the snake man, and brought him back to the Palace of Silence to raise him, just like our family."
Medea introduced the dark tone deaf monster domesticated by her to Joan.
Joan suddenly nodded. No wonder "Bell has a very different temperament from the dark sound deaf monster described in the book, and does not reflect the racial characteristics of evil and ferocity. It turns out that he is a domestic strange monster domesticated by Medea and Gray Bird since childhood, just like wild wolves and domestic dogs, although They are all canids, but their habits are very different.
Medea introduced Joan to Gray Bird, Bell, and her stone-blind barbarian servants, calling him a like-minded friend and a top student at Midgard University's Arcana Institute, which made him a little embarrassed.
"It turns out that Mr. Vader is a mage. No wonder I smelled a trace of an arcane spellcaster from him just now, but I can't be sure that he is a mage, or a warlock like you, miss." Gray Bird said to Medea .
After hearing what she said, Joan couldn't help but grabbed his sleeve and smelled it, but he couldn't smell any special smell, so much so that he exposed his identity as an arcane spellcaster.
But after thinking about it, the stone-blind barbarian was born blind and completely relied on hearing and smell to perceive the outside world. His nose must be sharper than his own, and he probably smelled the scent of the spell-casting materials he carried with him.
In fact, Joan is also very curious about this gray bird lady, and wants to know why she has a pair of scaled wings on her back, and whether she has any special bloodline?
However, considering that they have just met each other for the first time and are not very familiar with each other, it would be too abrupt to ask such a question. It is better not to inquire about her privacy in person.
While Joan was chatting with Medea and Gray Bird, Ruby, who felt that she had been left out, turned into a cloud of red spores and escaped from the flytrap, and then changed into the form of a giant mosquito, fluttering her wings. Suspended on Joan's shoulders, with a pair of ruby-like compound eyes wide open, he looked curiously at the two strange women opposite him.
"Huh? Such a beautiful big mosquito!"
Medea's gaze was immediately attracted by Ruby, and she asked Joan in surprise:
"Is this your magic pet?"
Before Joan could answer, "Miss Ruby" rushed to shout.
"Ruby is not a magic pet, but my little brother's girlfriend!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Joan gave the little girl who was full of nonsense angrily, and then explained to Medea: "Ruby is a child of a friend of mine. My friend is on vacation and it is inconvenient to bring a child with me. Put Ruby in foster care with me for the time being."
"So that's how it is..." Medea suddenly smiled strangely, "This is really interesting, Joan, no matter how you look at it, you don't look like someone who is good at taking care of children. If I have a daughter, don't worry about giving it to her." Take care of you."
"It's a bit too much for you to say that..."
In fact, Qiao An has been working hard to learn to take care of children during this time, and she thinks she has tried her best, but she didn't expect to be poured cold water on her head by Medea, and she feels kind of stuffed...
At this time, the sound of branches and leaves shaking came from behind.
Joan looked back and saw that the big flytrap that had just gotten rid of Ruby's parasitism seemed to realize that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so it wriggled its roots and tried to slip away quietly.
"Huh? Honey jar, don't run away!"
Ruby flapped her wings and was about to fly up to stop the big flytrap.
Although the gray bird can't see, it has a keen sense of smell and hearing to be aware of the wind and grass around it. Fearing that the little Ruby will be hurt by the big flytrap, it flutters its wings and rushes to the big flytrap, kicking it out seemingly at will. A whip kick kicked the big flytrap to the ground on the spot.
The big flytrap that was hit hard opened its jagged leaf pods angrily, like a large iron tongs, clamping the blind lady's right leg before she could retract it like lightning.
"Wow! Young lady, be careful!"
Ruby knew very well how terrible the bite force of the large flytrap leaf pod was, seeing the gray bird being tightly clamped by it, she couldn't help crying out in surprise.
Gray Bird turned her head and smiled slightly at "Miss Ruby", a seldom showing a trace of warmth on her cold face.
At the same time, she tensed her leg muscles, and her graceful long legs seemed to instantly turn into iron pillars, forcibly breaking off the densely serrated edges of the flytrap leaf pods.
The gray bird unhurriedly stretched out its hands to grab a leaf pod respectively, pulled its arms vigorously, and with a click sound, it forcibly tore apart the tightly clenched leaf pods, and flew up With one kick, the big flytrap was rolled far away.
"Wow! Miss Sister is so amazing! So you are a strong man, Ruby, I admire you so much!"
Ruby danced excitedly around Gray Bird.
A blush appeared on the cheeks of the blind lady, and she actually showed a shy expression. She pursed her lips and raised her hand to caress Ruby's tentacles, looking extraordinarily gentle.
Seeing this scene, Medea snickered and tugged at Joan's sleeves, leaned into his ear and whispered: "See, Gray Bird is better at taking care of children than you, or you can invite her Be a babysitter."
Joan scratched his head in embarrassment. Seeing that Ruby, a little traitor, was so affectionate with Hui Niao as soon as they met each other, chasing after her to show courteousness, he couldn't help but feel a little sour...
In order to ease the embarrassment, Qiao An took the initiative to change the topic.
"It's a little surprising that the gray bird is stronger than the giant flytrap."
"The gray bird is a level 12 'barbarian warrior', but when it broke free from the shackles of the leaf pod just now, it didn't activate the 'Rage', it was completely relying on its own strength."
"This is even more unbelievable. Is the strength of the stone-blind barbarians greater than that of ogres?"
Qiao An frowned. The records in the documents were not like this. Is there a mistake in the documents, or there are other reasons.
Medea smiled and shook her head, and the next answer verified Joan's guess about Gray Bird.
"Ordinary stone-blind barbarians don't have that much strength. The reason why the gray bird is special is that she is an experiment for the mind flayers to study human body modification. On the surface, she looks like a beautiful girl, but in fact, she has been implanted into her body. A lot of messy genes, such as the Tyrannosaurus rex in the surface world..."
"Have you noticed that there is a pair of gray scaled wings on the back of the gray bird? It is derived from the gene of the giant moth, and it is also the product of human experiments. The mind flayers are trying to use the gray bird as the embryo material to create a kind of tyrannical force." An entirely new humanoid species with the ability to fly."
"Generally speaking, the series of experiments conducted by the mind flayers on the gray bird are quite successful. Even the name gray bird was given to her by the mind flayers, because her complexion is gray and she can fly freely like a bird. ..."
"Grey Bird doesn't really like this name, because she is blind. She has never seen a real bird in her life, and she doesn't know what 'gray' is. In her perceptual world, there are no other colors except black and white. .”
