As the night fell, the fire blazed brightly, dozens of skinned and dismbered wild boars, goats, and other large ga were roasting over a campfire, their fats sizzling and dripping, with the rich aroma of at perating the area.
Chira, Harpy, Sphinx, and Teussian Fox stared eagerly at the gradually ripening food, swallowing more and more frequently.
Though their bestial instincts made them want to rush forward and hoard all the food, feasting to their hearts' content,
the sight of the silver-haired biped leisurely turning the spit in front of the fire scattered their restless spirits with an instinctual fear, and they obediently squatted around, waiting for alti to begin.
"Alright, eat."
At Luo En's command, the surrounding offspring of Typhon could no longer contain themselves. They rushed forward, wolfing down the designated portions of food and relishing the al that they had earned from hard labor.
Watching the expressions of enjoynt on Typhon's offspring, Luo En nodded in satisfaction.
Through his training, they had sohow acquired a semblance of being "dosticated."
On one hand, this was due to Echidna's token, which allowed him to easily establish a preliminary trust with these divine creatures;
On the other hand, although these offspring of Typhon were divine monsters, most of them were intelligent and could communicate, which greatly facilitated his efforts to dosticate them;
Moreover, encountering any disobedient or uncooperative ones, he simply showcased his muscle power by beating them up, then purposefully fed them afterward...
With these comprehensive asures, those legendary fierce and evil offspring of Typhon had been thoroughly tad, looking up to him as their leader.
Wasn't this just the evolutionary process from wolves to dogs? This turned out to be much simpler than he had anticipated.
Just as Luo En was feeling quite pleased with himself, the whispers of the divine monsters behind him could be heard.
"That guy just laughed; whenever he shows that expression, I feel a chill running down my spine…"
"Hehe, what's there to be scared of in laughing? You guys are so silly!"
"Fine, you're the smart ones."
Chira's back held the Sheep of Wisdom, which gave the chattering Harpies a disdainful look and asked with ill intentions,
"So, can anyone tell what 3 4 equals?"
The Harpies excitedly raised their hands, confidently answering.
"2!"
"3!"
"4!"
"5!"
As is commonly known, birds can rarely count to 7, and this flock of Harpies obviously inherited the birds' poor counting and computational abilities.
Chira's rear Serpent of Cunning leaned forward, seemingly asking in a passing, casual manner,
"Strange, how could this be? Who got it wrong then?"
"It's 5, definitely 5!"
"Nonsense, it's 4!"
"3, it clearly equals 3, okay!"
The four differing Harpies plunged into a heated argunt, which under the incitent of the sheep and snake heads turned into a full-blown internal fight.
Temporarily, the scene was filled with flying sand and feathers.
Luo En looked at the rabbit leg covered in dust in his hand, his face darkened.
anwhile, before the inciting Chira could revel for too long, the sphinx beside them could not hold back any longer. She got up, stretched her paws, and squeezed in front of Chira, her gaze burning as she looked at her kin.
"I recognize your wisdom, try my riddle: I have no past, I will beco the past, no one has ever seen , nor will anyone ever see , but I am the secret to human survival and breathing, what am I?"
"Shut up!"
The three heads of Chira, overwheld by the nonsensical riddle, buzzed in irritation and simultaneously roared aggressively, wanting to drive away the sowhat neurotic sphinx.
"Why reject wisdom, why choose ignorance? This world is too sick, keeping company with ignorance, I'd rather be dead."
The deeply hurt sphinx, her mournful female face sorrowful, uttered a lant in the tone of wanderer's poetry, then hugged one of the lion heads and leaped toward a nearby valley.
"Crazy woman, why drag into your death wish?"
The unfortunate Chira, its hair bristling, its lion head of courage at the front, the sheep head of wisdom on its back, and the snake head of cunning at the tail, all roared in unison in anger.
Boom!
Two divine monsters intertwined in combat along the way, like teors falling, finally smashing into the valley, creating deep conical pits several ters deep.
Luo En didn't even glance at the two children of Typhon who had fallen off the cliff; instead, he fervently rescued pots, pans, ladles, and the remaining uneaten food.
This height, they could fall seventeen or eighteen tis without necessarily losing a few hairs; they definitely wouldn't die.
At this mont, the Teussian Fox, who hadn't fully mastered the common Titan language, had originally found a quiet spot after eating its fill and lay down on the ground to nap.
Unexpectedly, the four squabbling Harpies were either creating wind or rain.
After getting its fur wet and receiving a few scratches from two Harpies, the Teussian Fox imdiately exploded with rage.
Suddenly, the huge white fox, waving its paws, leaped into the fray, joining the battle against the four Harpies.
But undoubtedly, the most unlucky was the Nean lion tied firmly on the ground.
Whirlwinds, torrential rain, trampling, and impacts, a series of battle aftermaths, fell on that big orange cat one after another.
Helpless, being fully restrained, it could only endure the repeated tornt from its siblings.
In the chaos, soone disrupted the most crucial Suppression Spell, and the Nean lion imdiately flipped over, its mane exploded, it tilted its head back and roared, with red eyes charging at the Chira that had stomped and scratched it.
For a mont, what was originally a duel between two, turned into a free-for-all among three.
linoe sat on a bluestone not far away, nibbling on a rabbit leg, excitedly waving the Cursed Blade in her hand, seemingly eager for chaos.
"Fight, fight!"
Watching the scene of the dinner he had carefully prepared turn into a smoky battleground, Luo En's gloomy face broke into a brilliantly radiant smile, cracking his knuckles with a snap, he stood up from in front of the fire, the golden halo behind him humming and spinning.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
Half an hour later, the rowdy children of Typhon lay scattered all around, looking at each other with resentnt, wailing and moaning, while linoe, one of the participants, also held her head in tears, squatting on the ground drawing circles.
After completing the violent suppression, Luo En, feeling refreshed, returned to the campfire, eating the rabbit leg snatched from linoe's hands, and flipping through the booklet that Echidna, the Mother of Serpents, had handed to him before setting off.
Cerberus was a cheerful silly dog every day, apart from eating until full and sleeping after eating, and besides a fondness for honey cakes and nectar, he had no other pursuits;
The Hydra was a gloomy and reclusive girl, who liked to hide in the water and keep to herself, but once provoked, she was vengeful;
The hundred-headed dragon Ladon and the dragon of Colchis, these two Dragonkin creatures, basically inherited all the drawbacks of dragons, liking to guard treasures and always sleeping deeply;
The Chira, although it possesses the heads of the wise goat, the cunning serpent, and the courageous lion, doing both offense and defense, the three heads always liked to fight internally, inciting each other;
The Nean lion is impervious to weapons, extrely strong, but lacks intelligence, making it easy to fall into traps;
The Sphinx, with human-like intelligence, has a slightly neurotic personality, liking to show off its cleverness through riddles, attempting to highlight its so-called uniqueness through these childish acts;
The four Harpies are all chatterboxes who still don't understand reading facial expressions and situations; although they are fast, they would co over curiously once their interest was piqued…
The above are the general impressions and summaries of their own children by Echidna, the Mother of Serpents.
To facilitate Luo En successfully bringing her children back, she voluntarily compiled these into a booklet, together with the snake scale as a token, and gave them to her chosen temporary guardian.
Along with linoe, this rebellious figure, a true bunch of problem children…
Luo En sighed, took out a piece of parchnt, and seeing the few remaining targets on it, felt slightly relieved.
Although slightly bumpy, the overall results also did not betray the trust of that serpentine mother.
After all, there weren't many legitimate children of Typhon; they could be counted on two hands.
Apart from those already in his hands, not all of the remaining could be recruited.
Cerberus, responsible for guarding the Netherworld, could also act as an inside man, naturally, there was no need to ddle;
The dragon of Colchis and the twin dragons of Troy, guardians of their respective city-states, were in places too public to abduct, these had to be postponed;
The Caucasian Eagle currently under Zeus's orders, inflicting punishnt on Protheus, likewise, could not be a target of abduction;
The hundred-headed dragon Ladon, stationed at the Garden of the Hesperides, also held an official position, pass on that as well;
So all things considered, the target was narrowed down to one remaining option, the Hydra.
If he wasn't mistaken, that "little girl" was probably holed up in the Lerna Swamp of Argolis, waiting for the future Hercules to co a-challenging.
However, that mighty hero likely wouldn't wait for that ti.
Having made up his mind, Luo En ate the last piece of at on the rabbit leg, stood up, and tossed a light reminder, walking cheerfully towards the cavern for rest.
"Whoever caused the ss is responsible for cleaning it up. If it's still not done by dawn, I'll roast them for breakfast."
The demonic silhouettes of Typhon's children shivered simultaneously, hurriedly climbing up from the ground, burying themselves in fixing the forest that they had turned unrecognizable.
