"Then what should we do? We can't just stay here and do nothing, right?" Elwyn asked, worried about the evil magic that was about to succeed in the Moon Goddess Temple.
He did not know how Ugart and the other centaurs had defeated the evil god and won this cruel war in real history. He only knew that if they continued to waste time and allowed the fallen centaurs to successfully summon the evil god, the difficulty of the challenge would increase exponentially.
Destroying the summoning magic and sealing the evil god again were not on the same level of difficulty.
Elwyn was considering the possibility of a forceful attack. Although it was dangerous, it was not completely impossible.
From the looks of it, the most troublesome thing was the crazy fire dragon. He just happened to know of a powerful black magic that might have an unimaginable effect against the fire dragon.
"You're right, we have to hurry. It's going to be dark soon, which is very disadvantageous to us. With the help of the Moon Goddess Temple, those fallen astrologers can use the power of the stars to defend themselves." Ugart had the other centaurs apply some herbs to the wound on his arm and bandage it simply.
"What should we do?" Elwyn tapped Ugart's arm lightly with his wand. Although he was not proficient in healing magic, it would make him feel better.
"Since we can't fly, swimming is the fastest way." Ugart said, "I know of a secret passage into the Moon Goddess Temple that leads to the depths of the lake."
Following the direction of his finger, Elwyn saw the cold and bottomless deep blue lake outside the Moon Goddess Temple. This place seemed to be connected to the lake outside the school castle.
He did not know if there were mermaids there, but the idea of swimming into the pitch-black lake was really crazy.
He turned to look at the arrogant centaur to make sure he did not hear wrongly. Centaurs were not aquatic creatures. What was Ugart going to do?
"The elders had already considered this situation. They prepared some herbs for me that can help us breathe underwater." Ugart took out an object wrapped in light grey leather from his leather armor and opened it in front of Elwyn. uu1;
Inside was a cluster of green seaweed-like herbs that looked like countless slippery, grayish-green rat tails. They were even wriggling slowly.
"Gill Sac Grass." Elwyn recognized this bundle of herbs. It was beyond his imagination.
He didn't know where the centaur obtained these precious herbs that grew in the depths of the Mediterranean Sea. One must know, after a few centuries, the human wizard Eladora Ketteridge would discover the effects of these magical herbs for the first time in the history of magic, and thus allowed his portrait to appear on the famous chocolate frog wizard card.
It was said that she had cooked a large amount of gill sac grass as a side dish and had almost suffocated to death. She had to bury her head in a bucket of water for a week before she could recover.
From then on, the world of magic learned the use of Gill Sac Grass.
Later on, wizards and potion masters began to analyze the specific components of the liquid and developed spells and a large number of precious potions to help wizards breathe underwater.
But at the end of the Middle Ages, the centaurs that humans thought were ignorant and primitive had actually discovered and used the Gill Sac Grass, this was truly inconceivable.
"I've tried it before, if you swallow it before entering the water, it will take effect immediately." Ugart gave a portion of the Gill Sac Grass to Elwyn. "Because of the limited quantity, only the two of us can infiltrate, there won't be any assistance."
Elwyn nodded his head, looking at the wriggling herb in his palm.
"Listen, human." Ugart bent down to look at Elwyn, his dark brown eyes flickered with radiance. "This operation will be extremely dangerous, we may very well die in the moon temple. I don't know why you came here to help us, I am extremely grateful for this. You have obtained the centaur's friendship, but I hope you can reconsider. This civil war is the centaur's own matter, I don't wish for …. "
"Say no more, I won't retreat." Elwyn interrupted him. "Facing that evil god, this isn't just the centaur's own matter."
Furthermore, this was only Gryffindor's illusion magic.
Elwyn's mission was to help the centaur reseal that evil god known as the forest god, he had no reason to retreat.
Even if he died in the moon temple, he would only fail the challenge and be sent out.
Ugart didn't speak, he patted Elwyn's shoulder heavily. Then he received a new spear and bow from his tribesmen, sheathing them on his back.
"After a while, my tribesmen will once again launch an attack on those fellows in the tribe, attracting their attention." Ugart instructed. "We will take this chance to sneak in. Once we enter the water, you will follow me."
They arrived at the side of the rushing river, which extended all the way to the central lake of the tribe.
"Very good, hold the herb in your mouth, I'll count to three and swallow it." When the battle in the distant tribe resumed, Ugart made a hand gesture. "Three, two, one."
Time seemed to have stopped, Elwyn stuffed the Gill Sac Grass into his mouth.
He hurriedly took off his shoes and socks, following Ugart into the icy river.
Unsurprisingly, the water was extremely cold.
Elwyn felt the skin on his legs burning, as though he was on fire. uu3;
The further he walked, the deeper the river became, his drenched robes fell down heavily.
The water had already submerged his knees, his rapidly numb feet slipping on the slippery and slippery pebbles.
He used all his strength to quickly chew on the Gill Sac Grass. It did not feel good, it was tough and slippery, like an octopus tentacle.
Very quickly, his body started to change, his lower body that was soaked in the bone chilling river water started to swell outwards. Suddenly, Elwyn felt as though an invisible pillow was pressing down on his mouth and nose.
When he took a deep breath, he felt his head spinning.
His lungs were empty, and the two sides of his neck suddenly felt a sharp pain.
Elwyn hurriedly used his hands to grab his throat, feeling two long and narrow cracks below his ears, opening and closing in the cold air …..
The Gill Sac Grass took effect, he had gills. He turned his head to look at the centaur beside him, the strong centaur had now become a strange monster.
There were gills on his face, thin webbing between his fingers, and even his four hooves had begun to deform. He waved his hand for Elwyn to follow him.
