Harry Potter Blood Hunter

Chapter 520: Wandering Bird, Wandering Goddess

The goddess didn't actually show her figure, but Gaia definitely said this to her.

Gaia's voice is also very magical, making Braud and his eyes follow and look in a certain direction.

Over there, on top of a chestnut tree, many little blue birds were gathering together to form the image of the goddess.

"Yes, long time no see! Mother God! We have a great time here!"

The goddess Gaia called Freya bowed to Gaia. Behind him, a large number of blue birds are hovering non-stop, as if to say that he is right.

"That's it! Then I'm relieved..." After Gaia finished speaking, it was obvious that she was going to change the topic to Browder and the others.

But Browder didn't want to end the topic just like that!

Now that he has guessed what these little blue birds are and knows their stories, Braud of course wants to try to bring them back...

Browder's ultimate goal is naturally to try to bring this goddess back. As long as it succeeds, Gaia shouldn't ask him to perform any tasks in the future, right?

"Don't be so relieved!" Browder interjected directly, "Dear Gaia, aren't you happy to see the goddess Freya after a long time? Don't you want to invite her back to Gaia's great world? A century has passed, and the time for those Muggles to grow savagely is over. The current world should be able to allow wandering birds to live safely again!"

Wandering Bird was the name of the little blue bird that Browder recognized.

Of course, they also have a name that is more familiar to ordinary people.

passenger pigeon!

The passenger pigeon is the most famous representative of modern extinct birds. Originally distributed in the northeast of North America, it migrates to the southeast of Florida, Louisiana and Mexico in autumn. It is a typical gregarious social species, each group can reach more than 100 million individuals. When a group of passenger pigeons flew by, it was 6 kilometers long and 1.6 kilometers wide, covering the sky and the sun.

Before Europeans came to the North American continent, there were as many as 5 billion passenger pigeons in North America.

But such a number of passenger pigeons disappeared in less than three centuries.

In the 17th century, not long after Europeans discovered the American continent, the passenger pigeon became the food of these pioneers because of its delicious meat, and the nightmare of the passenger pigeon began.

From 1800 to 1870, the number of passenger pigeons declined at a relatively slow rate, but when the meat of passenger pigeons became widely accepted by the public, large-scale commercial hunting began.

In New York in 1805, a pair of passenger pigeons sold for two cents, and the meat of passenger pigeons was brought by train from the western United States. Poor people in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century America often had no meat other than passenger pigeons.

Humans spread huge nets in the forest, and even burned sulfur under pigeonholes to suffocate the birds, then collected the carcasses.

It can be as cruel as it can be.

The construction of the American railroad network in the 19th century made it easier to sell pigeon meat.

In this way, the trains carried empty corpses and groups of lost souls in exchange for piles of bloody banknotes...

In the 1840s, the bird watching organization in the United States found that the number of passenger pigeons was declining too fast, and they decided to find ways to protect passenger pigeons.

But U.S. state governments disagree. They believe that other creatures may be destroyed, but passenger pigeons are not.

The people of that era had the impression of the passenger pigeon, which was a huge number in the sky that covered the sky and could not be wiped out no matter what. Therefore, the special committee of the Legislative Council refused to legislate to protect passenger pigeons on the grounds that "passenger pigeons have a large number, their habitats are everywhere, and their feeding grounds are spacious and open."

Between 1870 and 1890, the number of passenger pigeons plummeted.

In the 1870s, after the end of the American Civil War, it was difficult for ornithologists to find large flocks of passenger pigeons, and there were fewer and fewer records of wild passenger pigeons found everywhere.

In 1878, in Petoskey, Michigan, 50,000 passenger pigeons were killed every day for five months.

In 1896, a flock of about 250,000 passenger pigeons was hunted, the last known large colony of passenger pigeons.

In 1897, the always busy Michigan state government finally enacted a ban on passenger pigeon hunting.

but……

On March 22, 1900, in the woodlands of Pike County, Ohio, a 14-year-old teenage hunter shot down a wild passenger pigeon with his air gun, the last recorded case of a wild passenger pigeon.

The last remaining pair of passenger pigeons left this world after leaving behind a chick and several unhatched eggs. People gave their chicks a name "Martha", named after Martha Washington, wife of the founding father of the United States.

In 1910, all the artificially bred passenger pigeons died one after another, leaving only "Martha" living alone in the world.

At noon on September 1, 1914, Martha flew to heaven to join billions of her fellow citizens.

This is what Browder knows about the wandering bird's experience on Earth...

If the wandering birds are just ordinary birds, then what happened to them is the embodiment of the tyranny of the terrible erect apes in the period of barbaric development of their living homes.

But what if some of the wandering birds have magical powers, and even above them, there is a goddess-like existence like Freya?

This is completely different.

Freya, the Goddess of Drifting Birds—it would be better to call her Goddess of Drifting Birds—is obviously the race god of Drifting Birds, and her own existence is based on the large number of Drifting Birds.

The greater the number, the stronger his strength.

However, the number of sane wandering birds is rare, and it is not a big deal for ordinary wandering birds to be eaten by some predators like foxes, weasels, and eagles.

The number of wandering birds makes them not afraid of this... Just like migrating salmon, migrating wildebeest, and sardine schools in the ocean, they all use a small number of sacrifices to ensure the stable development of their own race.

But when her group suffers such a large-scale and endless persecution from the terrifying erectus, it is impossible for the Wandering Goddess to do nothing.

But the result now is that the wandering goddess has left the big world of Gaia, and can only hide in this world and continue to survive with her children.

There is naturally a big situation here.

And this situation... No matter how he looked, Braud felt that he had something to do with Gaia.

And now seeing Goddess Freya's awkward look, Browder made up a lot of things in his brain.

Hmm... It should be that Gaia prevented Goddess Freya from taking revenge on the terrifying upright ape, which caused Goddess Freya to leave the great world of Gaia with a large group of her children.

It's impossible not to leave! After being captured like this, His only remaining children will be hunted down and killed.

Gaia should also have feelings of guilt towards Goddess Freya—maybe Gaia never thought that the wandering birds would really be wiped out—that's why he is so... nothing to say?

But what Browder said earlier broke the tacit understanding between them.

The name of the wandering bird was mentioned again, and Braud was commented by Gaia and Freya at the same time.

Although the pressure was great, Browder still insisted on facing them with a smile.

"You're clever!" Gaia stopped talking after saying this to Browder.

But Gaia's meaning is very obvious...Browder, please work harder for me, if you really fool Freya back, you will definitely be rewarded!

So Browder really pulled himself together.

But Goddess Freya, who was the party involved, was not wavering.

"Let me go back?" Goddess Freya shook her head, "The mother world can't hold me anymore!"

Browder immediately felt bad, and hurriedly said, "Why can't you pretend? Now..."

But Browder's words were directly interrupted by Goddess Freya, "Are you sure the mother world can accommodate three billion wandering birds at once?"

After a hundred years of cultivation in this small world, after the painstaking cultivation of the goddess Freya, the number of wandering birds has not returned to the peak of five billion, but the number of three billion is not empty at all.

This is because this small world can only accommodate so many wandering birds, and any more will cause the rules of the world to be broken.

But what will happen if such a number of wandering birds all return to the Gaia world in one breath?

A flock of birds that blots out the sky is sure to do great harm to modern Muggle society...

Like an airplane! It only takes one bird to fit into an airplane's engine to bring the plane down.

Moreover, in the current Gaia world, there are not so many chestnut and oak trees that can allow the wandering birds to survive, and they can only eat the crops in the farmland.

At that time, there may not be so many people who still remember the tragedy of the extermination of the wandering birds a hundred years ago.

Browder's words were echoed back in his throat.

How sensible! As expected of a goddess, she sees problems so thoroughly. It's also because Browder didn't practice his tricks well.

It seems that the chance of trying to fool Goddess Freya back is very slim.

Therefore, Braud no longer cared about Gaia's urging, and directly discarded this choice, "Then respected goddess, would you like to let some of your children go home to try? If the number is not so large, it should There will be no problem!"

Gaia blew her beard and stared at Browder's words... Okay, Browder, you gave up so quickly!

But after thinking about it carefully, Gaia figured it out. This is to make Freya still care about the great world of Gaia!

With care, there is a possibility of coming back in the future.

With Freya's previous attitude, it is basically impossible to come back directly. The probability is equal to zero.

But now the curve saves the country, let’s increase the probability from zero first.

As long as the odds aren't zero, it's possible.

At this time, Browder is still recommending Britain to Goddess Freya... saying that there are many chestnut trees in the UK, and the British don't know how to eat chestnuts, so these can be used as food for wandering birds.

If you don't want Muggles to find out, it is absolutely no problem for 10,000 wandering birds to survive in the mountains.

If you are not afraid of discovery, you can also raise 100,000 wandering birds.

Goddess can try it.

Goddess Freya's attitude really relaxed after Braud finished speaking.

But there is only one goddess Freya, and she can only take care of the wandering birds in one world. It is impossible for Freya to go back to the big world of Gaia regardless of the three billion wandering birds in this small world.

But if there is no leader, then these wandering birds are just very ordinary birds.

At this moment, a blue bird that had been resting on Browder's shoulder flew up.

It said that it is willing to take care of thousands of compatriots instead of the goddess!
