"It's that big lion that can fly!" Amy's eyes lit up as she exclaimed in surprise.
The griffin, which was originally charging towards Meg excitedly, heard Amy's words and began to decelerate. It landed on the cliff and circled around before flying back up again. It stopped at a height of about ten meters and looked at Amy in bewilderment. It was as if it was looking at a scary person, but at the same time, it wanted to get closer to her.
Meg was both surprised and amused. Who would have thought that such a big guy would be scared by Amy?
"Ah Zi, come down," Meg raised his head and called out to the purple-striped griffin.
"Awo …" Ah Zi looked at Meg, then at Amy, and carefully descended.
"Ah Zi? That's such a cute name! " Amy blinked and looked at Meg curiously. "Father, do you know it?"
"Yes, it's an old friend." Meg nodded with a smile. He looked at the purple-striped griffin, who was as timid as a dog, and couldn't help but feel angry and amused at the same time. It was not cool at all. It didn't look as mighty as when it tore the demon apart with its bare hands. Instead, it looked more like a fool. He said in a louder voice, "Ah Zi, come down!"
After lingering in mid-air for a while, the purple-striped griffin landed gently on the cliff. Even though it was looking at Amy with a wary expression, it still couldn't help but lean its head toward Mag and rub its head against his shoulder as if it were trying to curry favor with him.
"Wow, it's so obedient. I want to pet Ah Zi's head too." Amy's eyes lit up as she reached out her little hand towards Ah Zi's head.
But before Amy's little hand could reach its head, the purple-striped griffin shrank its head back. Its eyes were wide open, and it looked as if it was about to be murdered.
Meg looked at the purple-striped griffin. He still didn't know why it was so afraid of her. He comforted, "Ah Zi, this is Amy, my daughter. She's very kind."
"Little Ah Zi, be good. Give me your head." Amy looked at the purple-striped griffin, then took out her staff, which was taller than a person, and said with a smile, "Otherwise, I'll blow your head off."
The purple-striped griffin seemed to be frightened, and it immediately stretched its head over to Amy's hand.
"Good girl." Amy stroked the purple-striped griffin's trembling head, and the smile on her face was as bright as the light from her magic caster's staff.
Meg: "…"
This was an unconventional first meeting. However, Mag also smiled at the sight of the purple-striped griffin, which had already stopped trembling and was beginning to enjoy itself.
Although she wasn't sure why Amy was so intimidating in Zi's heart, it didn't seem to be a big problem at the moment.
Amy stroked Ah Zi's furry head and looked at Meg curiously as she asked, "Father, were you the one who commanded little Ah Zi to kill all those bad guys?"
"You could say that." Meg nodded.
"I told you Father is super awesome. Even your little pet is so powerful." Amy's expression was a little excited, but she soon sighed, and said, "But … Ugly Duckling is too fat. Even if it becomes a white swan in the end, it'll definitely be a super fat white swan, the kind that can only roll on the ground."
Meg imagined that scene, and the smile on his face widened. He put Amy on the ground, and took out two sets of black clothes from his bag. "We're going to kill all the remaining bad guys now, and then rescue the people they've captured. However, the truly powerful heroes never let others know their true faces, so we have to disguise ourselves."
Amy's eyes lit up, and she asked curiously, "Is it like those legends? A hero wearing a mask saves people in trouble, but doesn't leave his name behind. "
"Yes, so we can't tell anyone what we're doing today, and we can't make any noise during the battle." Meg looked at Amy with a serious expression, and asked, "Can you do it, little hero Amy?"
"I can!" Amy nodded with a serious expression.
"Very good, then let's set off." Meg put on the black windbreaker for Amy, and then put on a small black and white mask for her. After that, he also put on all his equipment, and jumped onto the griffin's back with Amy in his arms.
"Let's go, Ah Zi. Let's go to those guys' nest." Meg patted the griffin's back gently.
"Let's go!" Amy yelled with joy as she spread open her arms.
The griffin spread its wings and soared into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a trembling horse that was tied to the cliff.
…
At the bottom of the basin, the people of the Gray Temple were studying the crime scene, trying to find some useful information from the bodies and ashes. Some were also cleaning up the collapsed cave entrance.
Meanwhile, Brandli and a few other Gray Temple members were interrogating the Rose Mercenary Squad members. They were the ones who had experienced the incident, and were also the first batch of people to survive the attack.
"Sir, it's just as we said. The demon escaped into the cave, but the entrance was destroyed by the purple-striped griffin's lightning ball. We don't know if he was killed, or if he escaped from the cave. However, these caves are very spacious, and many of them are connected. If he escaped, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to catch him, "Dennis said to Brandli. He still felt a lingering fear as he thought back to what had just happened.
Brandli nodded, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The Gray Temple will take care of everything here. You can all go back to Chaos City to rest. If necessary, we may need your cooperation in the investigation."
"Alright, this concerns the safety of us mercenaries. We'll do our best to cooperate." Everyone hurriedly nodded solemnly.
"Over here!" Suddenly, there was a cry of alarm from the digging cave. The combat personnel quickly rushed forward. Soon, a black demon with smoke coming out of his mouth after being struck by lightning was carried out by several Spirit Binding Ropes. One of his legs was crushed by a huge rock, and he was on the verge of death.
Brandli stepped forward, and coldly said to the demon, "Reattach his life, then pry open his mouth and find out where they're hiding."
…
About 15 kilometers west of the basin was a mountain. To the west of the mountain was a nearly vertical cliff, forming a misty valley with the mountain on the other side. The dense fog enshrouded the entire valley, and no one could be seen beyond a few meters.
At the bottom of the valley, there was a lush forest. It had been thousands of years since anyone had disturbed this place, and trees as thick as a man's arm could be seen everywhere.
