In Rhode's impression, a griffon is an extremely special creature. It has the strong body of a lion, the sharp claws and wings of an eagle, and its extremely large size. Any creature that faces it will feel powerful. sense of oppression.
A large number of griffons live on the plains where Erathia is located, and have reached an agreement with this powerful human kingdom.
In order to win over these griffins, the lords of Erathia built tall griffon towers and provided them with sufficient rewards to join the war launched by the lords.
Gradually, the existence of griffins has become the standard for judging the strength of the Lord of Erathia. Lords who own a large number of griffons often have a strong voice.
Due to the unique shape of griffins, many mages believe that the emergence of griffins is the product of some kind of transformation ritual, just like the alien creatures that still exist in the underground world at this time.
Brakada's most powerful period was also an era when sorcerers were rampant. During this period, a large number of alien creatures were produced due to the abuse of transformation rituals, seriously destroying the balance between the original creatures.
After the mage's remediation, all the magicians were expelled to the underground world to continue their research. However, the impact of the sorcerer on the surface world can no longer be eliminated.
After the sorcerer was expelled, a large number of alien creatures still remained in the surface world. For these ordinary alien creatures, the decision made by the mage at that time was to let them survive in the surface world without intervening too much, let alone killing them all savagely.
Due to the characteristics of the gryphon, many mages who know the history of Brakada now regard it as a leftover alien creature.
However, after a long period of research, Bracada scholars came to the opposite conclusion. They believe that griffons existed in this world long before the Golden Age of Bracada, before even the advent of witchcraft rituals.
In addition, Bracada scholars also proved their conclusion through evidence from other aspects.
Through the study of griffins, scholars in Brakada learned that above ordinary griffins, there is a more special griffin, which is what ordinary people call the holy griffin.
According to legend, the Holy Griffin lives in the Cloud City above Erathia along with the angels, and serves as a messenger to convey the will of the angels to the ruler of Erathia.
It is said that the alliance between griffins and ordinary lords in Erathia was only promoted by the Holy Gryphon. Otherwise, according to the strength of ordinary noble lords, let alone taming these griffins, just appearing in front of the griffins , will feel a sense of fear, naturally they will not be recognized by these griffins.
Regarding the existence of the Holy Griffin, all the lords in Erathia who understand this will maintain respect for it. What the Holy Griffin symbolizes is the more powerful existence behind them.
Similarly, it was the existence of the Holy Griffin that allowed the mages of Brakada to confirm that the Griffin was not the product of witchcraft rituals, but a creature that originally existed in the world.
Regarding the existence of sorcery rituals, scholars in Brakada do not know what the most powerful angels would think. They just think of the saying in Erathia that angels symbolize holiness. Brakada Scholars believe that they will not have a good attitude towards black magic rituals.
Many of the creatures born from the sorcery rituals would make even a mage with a strong mental capacity feel sick to his stomach when he saw them. This kind of creature is disgusting even to the sorcerer himself, let alone the attitude of other creatures.
Because of this, Brakada scholars believe that the Holy Griffin can live in Cloud City with the angels, and the purity of its bloodline is naturally guaranteed, which cannot be achieved by ordinary fusion creatures.
As griffins become stronger, their appearance will change dramatically. The hair on low-level ordinary griffons is mostly brown, and the shade of brown varies depending on the species.
When a griffon's rank changes, the color of their hair will also change accordingly. When a griffon reaches the fourth level corresponding to the official rank, silver-white feathers will appear on their bodies until their entire upper body is covered.
The color of the griffin's hair can distinguish their strength to a large extent. This is also the consensus of the lords of Erathia about the griffin.
According to the information provided by the lords who have seen the Holy Griffin with their own eyes, the hair on the surface of the Holy Griffin's body is truly pure white, just like the wings behind an angel. All creatures who see the Holy Griffin will notice it from it. He felt an aura of holiness on his body, and this was also the origin of the title Holy Griffin.
The pendant obtained by Rhodes is closely related to the Holy Griffin. Therefore, Rhodes is naturally very concerned about it and wants to know more about it.
In the previous game, even after three expansion packs, all Rhode knew about the existence of the Holy Griffins and the news about them were only the opinions of the scholars in Brakada. Other than that, , Rhodes didn’t know anything else about the Holy Griffin.
Even in the third expansion pack, when a large number of angels appeared on the battlefield, Rhodes had not seen the Holy Griffin with his own eyes.
Because of this, when Rhodes noticed that the treasure he obtained from Northen would have a certain connection with these most mysterious holy griffons, Rhodes took it to heart.
After having this connection, Rhodes knew that the effect of this treasure was obviously not as simple as he originally thought, but had a special meaning.
As for how Northam obtained this treasure, even if Rhodes rummaged through other items in Northam's space ring, he could not get any specific information. Northam himself also died under the influence of the fragments of the forbidden magic ball. Rhodes obviously needs to explore the origin of this treasure on his own.
During the process of returning to Vilning, due to time constraints and the dangers he might encounter, Rhodes had no way to test the specific effects of this treasure. He could only wait until he returned to Vilning before thinking of other methods.
At this time, facing the water element that was casting a spell, Rhodes undoubtedly had an opportunity to test the effect of this treasure.
