Extraordinary North America: Where are the magical partners?

Chapter 100: Poor Demigod Boy
Among the ruins.

All the guys who had been petrified by the Gorgon came back to life.

Annabeth helped her companions up one by one, including herself. Everyone's face was a mixture of fear and relief at surviving the disaster.

At the same time, when they woke up, they also saw the man standing in front of the banshee's corpse and thinking.

"It was he who saved us."

"What a strong man, he can kill the fairy in the myth with his mortal body."

"It should be a strong will! Facing the gaze of the banshee without giving in, this kind of willpower is what we should admire!"

"By the way, could it be that one of his parents is a god like us?"

"He's so handsome, could his father be Apollo?"

"."

Amid the discussion, Mavis quietly landed on Teddy's head and whispered, "Is Rango's father the sun god Apollo?"

"Sun God?" Teddy's eyes rolled, and the figure who was often dressed in white, with a burly but slightly plump figure, emerged in his mind. Then he shook his head firmly: "No, no, no, absolutely impossible!"

Thinking of the past behavior of the man named Pete, this guy shook his head quickly, "There is no such naive god in the world."

"Huh, that's good."

Mavis breathed a sigh of relief. Although she liked watching the sunrise, she preferred the night to the day when the sun was out.

On the other side, Annabeth listened to her companions' discussions, and her eyes involuntarily turned to Rango's back.

Although she was grateful to him for saving herself and her companions, Anna felt a dull pain in her butt the moment she saw him.

At this time, Rango didn't pay any attention to the gossip about him behind him. His attention was always on Danai in front of him and the progress bar on his wrist moving back and forth.

When he killed Yellow Eyes and the Black Ghost Birdman before, the progress bar increased by as much as 80%. Rango originally thought that as long as he killed one more extraordinary creature and absorbed its energy, he would be able to summon it again.

But what he didn't expect was that after he killed this so-called descendant of Medusa, the progress bar, which was already very close to being full, only moved forward a little bit.

Still a ways from full.
The power level of this Gorgon is too low!
Rango shook his head helplessly, shifting his attention away from the pair of Danai and instead paying attention to the banshee's head beside him.

Although its head had been moved, the banshee's head that fell to the ground was still roaring hideously, its vitality was so tenacious that it was terrifying.

Annabeth saw this and explained at the right time: "These ancient monsters are immortal. She must be completely burned with fire. Otherwise, she will not die even if only a head is left."

"Burned? This is my trophy!"

Rango rejected her suggestion without hesitation.

Since this Gorgon claims to be a descendant of Medusa, her status among the Gorgons in human society is considered an ancestor.

How could he bear to throw away such precious trophies?

After pondering for a moment, a gleam of inspiration flashed in Rango's eyes. He turned back to the team and pulled out a slightly old and yellowed white cloth from Toothless's bulging travel bag.

Cleopatra's foot binding!

Under the curious gazes of the crowd, Rango and Mavis exchanged a tacit look.

The little bat flew lightly to his shoulder and the two of them talked in low voices.

Then Rango turned around, and the man and the bat closed their eyes instantly.

Mavis opened her mouth and called out twice. After feeling the feedback of the sound waves, she whispered in Rango's ear, "Go two meters to the right, and then go forward."

In this way, using the ultrasonic waves of bats, Rango moved freely in the darkness and accurately arrived in front of the still roaring banshee's head.

He carefully followed Mavis's instructions, grabbed the poisonous snakes wrapped around the banshee's head one by one, and wrapped the yellow foot binding tightly around the banshee's eyes.

I don’t know if it’s because of the foot binding or because it covers the eyes of this witch.

The venomous snakes that were spitting out their venom frantically suddenly lost their vitality and hung limply around her head, as if all their vitality had been sucked away.

The banshee's roar suddenly stopped, and her entire head became extremely calm, as if it had turned into a specimen.

"This"

The descendants of the gods who witnessed this scene were all dumbfounded. What kind of evil trick was this?

"Ha ha!"

After the plan succeeded, Rango laughed happily and gently bumped Mavis's little head on his shoulder with his head, with a smug look in his eyes.

This time I'm going to make a fortune. I can even take away the head of a living Gorgon ancestor with just a little effort!
Of course, he had no idea what this thing could be used for, but having a head full of snake heads at home did look pretty intimidating.

Carefully placing the head back into the travel bag, Rango looked around and found that everyone was staring at him blankly. He couldn't help but wonder, "You are all looking at me. Just do what you should do."

The one-eyed boy who had been the most honest before spoke first: "Our test has been completed, and even the 'answer' has been packed up by you." This guy pointed to the travel bag hanging around Toothless's neck.

Rango smiled indifferently and said, "It seems that with my help, you guys are cheating this time. I hope your teacher won't make it too difficult for you."

After teasing for a few times, Rango changed the subject and asked curiously: "By the way, what heinous crimes did these Gorgons commit that were worth such a big fight?"

"Crime? No."

The descendants of the gods looked at each other and shook their heads, saying, "The Dark Forest is inaccessible to humans. Even the Giants and the Dwarfs have strictly prohibited their people from setting foot in it. The banshees are trapped by the curse and cannot leave the forest. So even if they want to harm people, they can't."

Rango frowned when he heard this. "Since they haven't harmed anyone, why are you slaughtering their population?"

After hearing this, the guys were equally indignant and said, "We didn't intend to slaughter them. The test given to us by the camp this time was to strengthen the seal of Medusa's bloodline. It's just that these banshees mistook us for enemies, and the seal was loosened due to age, so Medusa's bloodline took the opportunity to escape."

".Fine."

Rango shrugged and urged, "Then you should go back and hand in your papers as soon as possible. I also want to go to the abandoned church you mentioned before."

After saying this, he called Teddy and the others to ride on Toothless and prepare to set off.

According to his past experiences, each of these familiar faces in his memory is like a disaster star. If he stays with them for too long, he will be inexplicably dragged into various events.

That's right, when he saw the woman named Annabeth for the first time, he knew that she must be a character in a movie.

If it were in the past, he would be happy to do these things as he needed to recharge the system's energy, but now the curator's life and death are unknown, he must find the old man first.

Just as they were about to take off into the air, the voice of the one-eyed young man Tyson interrupted their movements:

"You won't be able to find it if you go there, even if you fly in the sky. It's the lair of the dryad now. The church has been wrapped in layers of branches and leaves of the dryad. It's hard to identify even from the air."

He extended his hand and introduced, "Tyson, thank you for your help. If you need, I can help you lead the way. I have been to that place once before, and I remember the route very clearly."

Rango stared at the one-eyed boy in front of him, a smile on his face: "If you are willing, that would be great. Come on up, man."

As he spoke, he firmly grasped the boy's outstretched hand and pulled him onto Toothless's back.

But then, another figure jumped up from the ground.

Annabeth, who had been taught a lesson by Rango before, unexpectedly got on Toothless's back, contrary to her usual behavior.

She first gave a few instructions to her companions below, then looked at Rango with a firm gaze and said, "I've been to that place before, and I don't like to owe favors to others. Tyson and I will take you there together."

"."

Rango and the others looked at each other and shrugged, "OK, whatever you want."

Following his command, Toothless flapped his wings and flew high, instantly piercing through the clouds, leaving the dark forest below far behind.

Looking down at the endless greenery below him, Rango couldn't help but feel emotional.

He didn't know how big the mysterious island described by Jules Verne was, but in his opinion it must not be bigger than the mysterious island in this world.

In particular, the vast forest that runs across the island is so breathtakingly vast that it is difficult to imagine the true scale of the entire island.

"Besides the forest, have you been to other places on the island?" Rango asked the two people behind him.

Annabeth remained silent, and Tyson responded enthusiastically, "We can only stay on the mysterious island for two months every year, and except for the death test, the rest of the time is almost spent in the camp training combat skills and divine power."

"Demigod camp?" Thinking of the words they mentioned before, Rango asked curiously: "Are all the people in that camp descendants of gods like you?"

"Well, to be precise, those who can stay in the camp are all demigods, and one of their parents must be a god."

"I see." Rango nodded slightly and continued to ask: "What about your god parents? Do they ignore you?"

Tyson's expression became a little serious after hearing this. He hesitated for a moment and then slowly said, "We have never seen them, and we don't know where they are. As for why we are here, it is because when we were young, our teacher in the camp, Master Dionysus, would go to the human world to awaken our divine power and tell us our true identities."

"."

Rango was speechless. The gods left so many demigod descendants in the human world. This didn't seem like a good thing no matter how you looked at it.

"By the way, I've noticed that you seem to be very enthusiastic towards me." Rango suddenly joked, "Are you up to something?"

Tyson was amused by Rango's joke. He blinked his one eye several times and answered sincerely, "When you first saw me, you didn't show any disgust or surprise. This made me feel that you were different and not a bad person."

"Really?" Rango smiled. Ever since attending Mavis' birthday party, his tolerance for these strange-looking things has indeed increased a lot.

At this time, Teddy, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and turned to Annabeth and asked:

"Well, Miss Anna, I heard that your mother is Athena, but as far as I know, isn't Athena the virgin goddess known for her chastity?"
