"It was because the Goddess of Misfortune, Eris, lost the bet. She was so angry that she cursed us unicorns to never be able to fly again. Once we were injured, our wounds would be hard to heal. Just like that, we, who were originally powerful and hard to hunt, became fewer and fewer in number. "Gaisilis could not hide the sadness in his words.
"Fortunately, the kind Goddess of Fortune pitied our situation and used magic to build this settlement for us. It made it difficult for other creatures to invade our territory without the leadership of us unicorns."
"Why didn't the Goddess of Fortune directly remove the curse of the Goddess of Misfortune?" The naive Gaia asked directly.
"This, this, the information passed down by my ancestors did not explain. But I guess that there might be an agreement between the two goddesses, such as not personally interfering with each other's magic. "Allen could see the awkwardness on Gaisilis' face.
"Cough, cough." Gaisilis coughed twice and cleared his throat. "Although the curse of the Goddess of Misfortune was eternal, under the mediation of the Goddess of Fortune, there was still a chance for our race to survive. That is, as long as we pass the test of the Sphinx, we will be able to recover. "
"All these years, we have been living here in seclusion for generations. If not for the agreement with the Hogwarts, the school would provide us with healing magic potions and we would provide the school with teaching examples. Our living space would be even narrower." The Unicorn Queen Verna added.
"But recently, a terrifying creature sneaked into the school. We unicorns have already lost two of our people. If we lose Gaia, it is really hard to imagine what will happen to us. "Queen Verna's face was full of fear.
"Have you ever tried the test of the Sphinx?" Allen grasped the key of the matter.
"No, because the first condition to enter the Sphinx's test is to obtain the magic ball of the Goddess of Fortune." After saying that, Gaisilis looked at Allen with eagerness.
He understood the meaning of the song. "If there is anything I can do, please tell me. I will do my best." Allen was very understanding.
"Of course, we urgently need your help. But first, we need to make some preparations. "Gachelis gestured for Queen Verna to bring some berries over.
While Gethilius was summoning his clansmen to gather and discuss, a few golden unicorns came to Allen's side. They stared blankly at the berry in Allen's hand. How adorable! Allen slowly stretched out his hand, and there were a few dark red fruits in his hand. The little unicorns looked at them anxiously, but they didn't dare to come close. Allen was very patient, smiling as he looked at these little fellows.
After a long while, a little fellow that was even thinner and smaller than the other little unicorns cautiously approached Allen's hand and took away the berry. Allen put another one on the table and looked at them with a smile.
When Gassilis and the others finished their discussion, they saw the little unicorns happily jumping around Allen. Some of them even stuck out their little pink tongues and touched Allen's hand. Allen, on the other hand, was gentle and elegant, as carefree as a child.
"Allen, we have decided that before everything is clear, we will let the old, weak, and some of the young live in the Forbidden Forest of the Hogwarts for a period of time. Then, we will face the test of the Sphinx together. We cannot let our friends charge into battle while we reap the benefits of others' work. "The purity and kindness of the unicorns was evident!
Allen readily agreed. After sending off the reluctant unicorns, Gassilis and the others were shocked to find Gaia mixed in with the group. Thunder instantly rumbled in the sky, and the explosion briefly filled the sky before disappearing without a trace. It looked like Gaia had persuaded her father.
Gassilis and Queen Verna were the first to arrive. Gaia lowered her head and followed closely behind them. Behind them, fifty majestic silver-white unicorns walked over in an orderly manner with their heads held high. Even though their limbs were strong, their lines were smooth, and their aura was forceful, causing those who saw them to not dare underestimate them, no one could deny the breathtaking beauty of these pure creatures.
In front of the statue of the Sphinx, Allen held the magic ball of the Goddess of Luck, Fowles. Under the expectant gazes of the unicorns, he chanted an ancient incantation, his voice echoing through the world.
The white Sphinx statue emitted a silver-white light, just like the color of the unicorns' fur. The Sphinx seemed to come alive, jumping to the side with a lightness that Allen found hard to imagine. In reality, the ground seemed to tremble a few times. The base of the bronze statue was like a large mouth, dark and mysterious.
Everyone entered this place that no one had set foot in for a thousand years. Even though there was no sun, moon, or stars here, and no one to take care of it, it was still blooming with flowers and bushes. Several strange white flowers stood tall, their pale corollas spreading out a foot wide. These white flowers bloomed in spots among the colorful bushes.
Everyone walked along the path paved with rainflower stones in the middle, and an exquisitely carved arched door appeared in front of everyone. The pattern on the arched door was similar to the decorative patterns of the Phoenicians, and a ripple-like light screen flickered in the door.
As everyone approached, a few lines of words appeared on the light screen. "Welcome to the World of Eris, pass all the checkpoints, and the wish of the unicorns will be fulfilled; If you fail, your bones will remain here forever."
This was an ancient magic language. On the bookshelf in the Ravenclaw common room, there were two rows of related books. In his free time, Allen had also dabbled in it. He translated this line of words to the unicorns. None of them were timid, instead, they were eager to join the battle, so as to fulfill the wish of their race and restore the glory of the unicorns.
Without hesitation, as if to prove their bravery, the unicorn warriors took the lead and entered the light screen. Seeing this, Allen also followed the unicorns into the light screen.
Allen had never seen such tall trees. They were about ten stories tall, and there was not just one, but many of them. These towering trees had lush branches and leaves, layer upon layer, covering the sky. Thus, Allen could only see a bleak haze in front of him. Looking into the depths of the forest, it was pitch black. The huge branches and leaves of the trees swayed and danced, looking deep and strange, as if there were ghosts everywhere.
Since they had already made their choice, they could only move forward bravely. Everyone carefully stepped into the forest, all of them on guard and moving forward cautiously. Allen also took out his magic wand, just in case.
Gaia touched Allen's face with her antennae. "Allen, are you afraid?"
"Afraid of what?" Allen asked, puzzled.
