Chapter 65: Sphinx (modified)

　　 Alan rode on the broom and followed the unicorn straight into the sea. He thought that the unicorns must be greeted by choking sea water, but there was none.
　　 A miracle happened. After jumping off the cliff, the unicorn led by Gelixis still rushed into the air unwillingly. It was like a butterfly that broke out of the cocoon after intensive training, and they grew huge, white wings on their backs. Against the backdrop of the blood-red sky and the sea, the unicorns' majestic and beautiful postures are extremely holy.
　　 Gaia slid a beautiful arc in the sky, dived to the sea level, shaking the huge white wings, and flew to the side of Allen riding a broomstick.
　　The unicorns that can spread their wings are extremely excited and fly tirelessly. Until a huge corrugated barrier blocked their way. The unicorns who had tasted the sweetness burst through the barrier.
　　 The unicorns who were already ready for battle fell from the sky to the ground. After enjoying the thrill of flying, and losing this ability, the unicorns couldn't help but be shocked.
Allen noticed. They seemed to be back in the square where the unicorn colony was in the beginning, but it was different from the square. Everything was shrouded in a yellow mist, and the huge white sphinx in the middle of the square The statue was also gone, replaced by a monster with a body that looked like a huge lion but a beautiful woman on its head.
　　 "Sphinx, Sphinx!" In an instant, Allen recognized the origin of the monster. Of course, Ellen did not ignore its huge, sharp, blue-glowing poisonous claws, and the huge black wings on his body. This wing is obviously larger than that of the unicorns, and once stretched out, it can definitely cover the sky. It is conceivable that once it is in trouble, the unicorns will surely be doomed.
　　 Allen remembered the information about Sphinxes he had seen before: Sphinxes are the monsters most feared by desert travelers. It opened its mouth and vomited, and a plague wind would blow from its mouth, making the person who touched it seriously ill. With a wave of both wings, a desert storm will occur. However, the strangest thing is its eyes, which can't see anything at all, but no one can resist its gaze. Because although it can't see anything in its eyes, its gaze contains the mystery of the entire universe; when you are stared by it, unless you can solve all of its puzzles, you will not be able to move. Although not as good as Medusa's eyes, its claws are super powerful, and you will be caught in an eternal guessing game until it closes its eyes. (Unless it wants to, because it really likes to make people guess puzzles, and it doesn't sleep!) But if you gain its power, your wisdom will improve because it is super smart.
　　 Get and lose wings, Allen thought that the unicorns would panic and lose for a long time. But he was surprised to find that it was only a brief panic, and under the leadership of Gheilis, they returned to the appearance of a soldier.
　　 It seemed that Gheilis had been prepared. With the help of Gaia, he dropped a mirror, a silver sword, and a roll of ancient parchment from the storage crown.
　　 "Allen, please take out the magic ball of Falls again." Ghelice asked Allen.
　　 Alan held out the magic ball, and Gheilis chanted the ancient spell with weird and complicated syllables. The magic ball rose slowly from Allen's hand, emitting a soft yellow light.
　　 "Ellen, you quickly stand under the magic ball, cut your finger with a silver sword, and drip blood onto the contract." Guy Hillis said anxiously, for fear that Sphinx would open his eyes.
After Allen had done this series of actions, Ghelice instructed him to draw a six-pointed star mark on the ground with a silver sword, and held the bronze mirror in his hand. After a while, Gheiles gave an order, and Alan would To jump up from the formation, shoot the bronze mirror on the sphinx's head.
　　Although Alan didn't know why, seeing Gehelis' solemn expression, he also knew that the matter was important, and agreed. Fortunately, Allen has a strong memory and comprehension ability, and in such a short period of time, he completely understood what Gheilis meant.
　　 Guy Hillis chanted another spell, and the Sphinx shook all over, as if he was about to wake up from his sleep.
　　 At the moment when its eyelids were trembling and about to open, Gheilis yelled: "Go to its head!"
　　 Waiting for Allen to ride the Shanghai King Star again, and seeing this giant beast up close, I feel more and more astonishing. Allen concentrated, and slapped the bronze mirror on the sphinx's head accurately. Sphinx is sober!
"According to the old contract~EbookFREE.me~ you can ask me a question. If I can't answer it, you can pass the final test; if I answer it, you will all die." The sphinx is majestic. The voice resounded throughout this world.
"What is a person?" This question was not raised casually by Alan. He had read this sentence when he was in the library earlier: "Sphynx spends his whole life thinking about what a person is, but every time It will overturn its answer even now."
　　 Sure enough, the Sphinx pondered for a long time without answering Ellen. "I can't tell exactly what a person is, you can pass."
As soon as the Sphinx’s words fell, the entire Eris illusion was turned into countless flying fragments. The yellow mist seemed to have been grabbed by a big hand. Allen and the others returned to the unicorn colony again. .
　　 "My wings can move, I can fly!" Gaia's surprised voice came. Allen turned his head and looked, Gaia was already soaring happily in the air, yelling tirelessly, expressing her joy. It is not the only unicorn doing this.
　　 Guy Hillis smiled a little sadly, and as if thinking of something, it slammed into Ellen holding the silver sword.
　　 Allen was smiling at Gaia. Although the reaction was quick, the sharp point of the sword still made a deep blood mark on Galichis.
　　 Alan was shocked, Gaia and the unicorns flying in the sky also flew back instantly.
　　 "Father!" Gaia was shocked. For a moment, she thought that her father was going to follow her mother.
　　 As a result, Galichis actually laughed up to the sky, "Recovered, recovered! The curse on our unicorns is completely lifted!"
　　 Everyone looked at Galichs’ wound with surprise and joy. The deep bloodstain was slowly healing from inside to outside at a speed visible to the naked eye!
