Chapter 1344 Lord of the Giant Eagle

From the gate of the military area to the entrance of the "Eagle Tower", you have to climb hundreds of stone steps that are built along the hillside and spiral up.

Aurora accompanied Joan and the others to the middle of the stairs, and was so tired that she squatted on the steps and gasped for breath.

"Sorry, guys! We birds are different from you humans. The knee joints are bent forward. This bone structure is suitable for pedaling on the ground and provides a strong boost when taking off, but it is not suitable for climbing. Steps, let me take a break first!"

Joan looked back at Aurora, wanting to correct a common-sense mistake in what she just said.

The so-called "anti-joint" structure is just a misunderstanding of birds by the public. Anyone who has dissected birds knows that the structure of the leg joints of birds is not much different from that of humans.

The so-called "anti-joint knee" is not the real knee of a bird, but the ankle—isn't the human ankle joint also bent forward!

However, after thinking about it, he still didn't open his mouth to correct Aurora's mistake.

Joan knows that his emotional intelligence is not high, and he is a bit "nerdy", so he pays special attention to the atmosphere when getting along with others.

As a bird, Aurora must know the structure of her own joints better than he, a human.

Even Aurora herself didn't mind using "anti-joint knee", although it was not accurate enough, but it had already been established by convention, so why should she correct it so much, it seemed that Joan Vidado was knowledgeable and annoying for no reason.

"Sister Eagle, Ruby, I can't figure out something."

"Miss Ruby" frowned, looking serious like a little grown-up.

"Since the 'Eagle Tower' is the home of giant eagles, and giant eagles don't like to climb stairs, why did they build so many steps? Isn't this trying to embarrass you?"

After hearing Ruby's question, Aurora couldn't help laughing.

Stretching out his flexible wings, he hugged the little loli in his arms and told her with a doting face: "Little sister, because these steps were not built for our Giant Eagles."

"The 'Eagle Tower' is not just an eagle's nest, but there are also many humans working in the tower. Occasionally, distinguished guests like you will visit the tower. This staircase around the mountain was built for people. We giant eagles It is more convenient to fly in and out directly from the skylight on the top of the tower without taking steps to get in and out on weekdays."

"So that's the case!" Ruby nodded suddenly, "Sister Eagle, you can fly by yourself, you don't need to climb the stairs with us."

"That's not allowed! I'm your tour guide. Wouldn't it be rude to leave the guests aside and fly away by myself?"

Aurora caressed the cheeks of "Miss Ruby" with her soft wingtips, and said with a smile: "Little sister, don't worry about me, sister, I have a more labor-saving technique for climbing steps."

Saying that, Ms. Giant Eagle stood up, with golden magic radiating from her body, and her body twisted and contracted violently. Under Ruby's surprised gaze, she transformed from a mighty giant eagle into a tall and beautiful human girl in the blink of an eye. .

After Aurora's transformation, her originally pitch-black eagle feathers turned into a straight black military uniform, and the red scarf still wrapped around the girl's slender pink neck, like a ball of flames, on her chest. The wind swayed.

"Wow! Sister Eagle has become a beautiful sister!"

"Look at what you're saying, wasn't I pretty before I became a human?"

Aurora rolled her eyes at Little Lolita, turned around and extended her right hand to Joan and Medea with a smile.

"Now let's get to know each other again as humans! Captain Aurora of the Far East Air Force, level 7 Giant Eagle Druid!"

Qiao An shook the female officer's slender hand, and then realized why she could transform into a human form.

Just as human druids can use the professional ability "wild transformation" to become animals such as black bears or falcons.

Conversely, this Ms. Eagle, who has a druid professional level, can also use "wild transformation" to temporarily transform herself into a beautiful girl.

Transformed into a human form, Aurora climbed the steps and walked briskly. Within ten minutes, she brought the three visitors to the "Eagle Tower" and introduced the construction history of the tower to them as she walked.

The Eagle Tower, a gigantic project that can be called uncanny workmanship, took a total of 30 years of painstaking efforts from two generations of the Edric family.

In order to provide an ideal home for the giant eagles, Sir Edric deliberately dug two ditches leading to the sea inlet in the tower, and introduced seawater to pour into the atrium, forming a large pond covering an area of ​​more than 200 acres— —or a “lake” would be more appropriate.

Whenever the tide ebbs and flows, the fish and shrimp living in the waters around the island will enter the atrium pond of the "Eagle Breeding Tower" under the influence of the tide, bringing delicious food to the young eagles.

Before their wings are strong enough to withstand the storms, the eaglets fish for food in the calm ponds of the atrium, learning hunting skills from their parents while learning literacy and numeracy from their human teachers Such as basic cultural education-these are indispensable courses for cultivating a qualified air force officer.

Aurora asked Joan and the others to wait by the fence of the pond in the atrium, boarded the wooden bridge by herself, hurried across the pond, and walked into an arched hall opposite the bridge.

Not long after, Auror returned the same way, followed by a gray-haired old man - no need to ask, he was the hereditary lord of "Eagle Island", known as the "Lord of the Giant Eagle". Sir Edric.

Joan noticed that the green cloak worn by the old gentleman was embroidered with a circle of golden wheat ears.

He is very familiar with this pattern. The cloaks of the Kandy family—and the catwoman Druid Bavla in Valley Village—are also embroidered with the same pattern. It is the most influential druid society in the Far East. A unique emblem for the "Circle of Harvest".

It wasn't until this time that Joan realized that Sir Edric was also a "Green Druid" from the "Ring of Harvest" society.

Judging from the age and reputation of this lord, Joan guessed that his old man's status in the "Ring of Harvest" must not be low. Maybe he is also a legendary archdruid like his grandfather and Kandy's father. One of Ms. Valentina's twelve favorite students.

Aurora enthusiastically introduced the two parties to each other.

Sir Edric appeared polite and indifferent, and he didn't express anything after hearing Medea's explanation of his visit. It seemed that he couldn't evade Aurora's request, so he reluctantly came forward to greet the three visitors from the New World.

Joan could see that this arrogant lord had no interest in the ongoing petrification research between him and Medea, and he didn't seem to intend to introduce them to befriend Kista.
