This was a creature that Angel couldn’t identify at all.
Its body was still enveloped in black mist, but its overall shape had begun to emerge vaguely, measuring at least ten meters in length, with a slender, sinuous body and two wings that covered the sky and sun…
Angel didn’t know what kind of creature this was, but the feeling it gave him remained unchanged—it was still somber, resentful, envious, and brought with it a cold, damp chill that sent shivers down his spine.
As Angel pondered, the creature continued to struggle. But suddenly, its head protruded from the mist; a crimson vertical pupil filled with endless madness heedlessly howled into the Void.
Terrible waves of energy were continuously generated and spreading.
Angel now understood why Frost had taken Toby into the Void, because if the transformation had taken place in the Soul Realm, just this wave of energy alone could have been enough to kill the nearby apprentices.
It was Wizard Level power!
As it howled, Angel also noticed something—the tongue that the long head spat out was a forked, crimson serpent tongue!
This was clearly a huge python covered in red patterns!
As Angel was shocked by Toby’s transformation, the giant python suddenly emerged from the mist, allowing Angel to finally see its whole body.
Even though its head was that of a python, there were still avian characteristics located near its lower abdomen, along with two very large wings.
At the tail, it turned back into a serpent again.
Overall, it was imbued with a sense of power. Also, because it was a snake, that moist, fishy odor constantly lingered at the tip of the nose, chilling to the core.
What exactly was this creature? What was Toby’s transformation?
“Snake Bird.” Standing to the side, Frost answered Angel’s question. Although the eyes beneath the mask couldn’t be seen, Angel could feel the evident admiration in Frost’s tone.
“The Snake Bird is a very rare magical creature. Such an elegant and huge Snake Bird is probably hard to find among its kin,” praised Frost, “Filled with jealousy, vanity, and resentment, such a harmonious blend.”
While Frost was offering praise, Toby, having transformed into a Snake Bird, suddenly began to go berserk.
Toby turned its head, its twisted snake-neck adopting a bizarre posture to aim its cold-scaled snake head at Angel’s location.
Its red vertical pupil was filled with a mad intent.
Lashing its tongue frenetically, Toby dove toward Angel.
Toby had clearly lost its rationality by now. Its movements were swift; it opened its mouth wide, revealing fangs that emitted a green glow… Evidently, Toby’s dive was not an expression of joy but was filled with lethal intent.
Just as Toby was about to close in on Angel, a wall of crystal appeared in front of it.
With a flick of its tail, Toby shattered the crystal wall to pieces. However, as soon as one shattered, a second would appear, and no matter how Toby attacked, it couldn’t get close to Angel.
Just as Toby was about to go into a rampage, a faint moan emanated from within the dark Void.
Toby abruptly turned its head, looking in the direction of the sound…
