Chapter 601: Cat-Dragon-Owl

"Can an owl turn into a fire dragon?"

"I've never seen it—"

"Professor Newt, is this called a Cat-Dragon-Owl..."

The little wizards chattered around Newt, discussing, thinking that the knowledgeable Professor Scamander must be able to answer their questions.

"This is the effect of some kind of alchemy product."

Professor Scamander explained patiently, but still didn't look at them directly.

"Oh—"

The little wizards all made sounds of realization.

"Sure enough, it's a fairy tale cookie."

Witch Tina said, and looked at Xiang Xien with a look of reverence.

"I heard it's only sold in Diagon Alley in England."

Some little wizards also glanced at Xiang Xien, and then refocused their attention on Newt.

After all, at this moment, Professor Scamander was introducing them to a Niffler...

It was covered in black fluff, with a long snout, looking curiously at many little wizards.

As for the fairy tale cookies, the little wizards were obviously no strangers to this alchemy creation.

If something had been reported by the Daily Prophet, Witch Weekly, Transfiguration Today, etc., for several months, it would be very strange not to be familiar with it.

Not to mention the new inventor on the Chocolate Frog card, although there was only a back view.

As for Xiang Xien, he was tapping Bai Yi's head with his finger at this moment.

The owl with silver-white tail feathers looked at him aggrievedly, turning its head one hundred and eighty degrees as if it were sulking, and no longer looked at him.

And the Runespoor was huddled in Xiang Xien's pocket—it and Tila were like two spectators.

Xiang Xien had always been surprised; he didn't expect the Runespoor to run into his pocket either.

He stretched out his finger silently, and the Runespoor drilled onto his hand as if it had sensed something.

It was a cool, slippery touch.

【You have gained the closeness of the magical creature Runespoor (Una) with expert standards, closeness +50】

The panel sound rang out, and Xiang Xien was surprised again; he still underestimated the epic-level magical creature affinity.

The Magical Creatures class ended soon.

"Mr. Green, would you stay behind, please?"

Newt said.

The little wizards all looked at Xiang Xien, and the little wizard, who was wrapped tightly, nodded.

"If only I were in England, I could also buy fairy tale cookies—that way I could also be kept behind by Professor Scamander."

A tall wizard said.

"Then you also have to be able to get an invitation letter."

Witch Tina glanced at him.

"However, the Runespoor seems to be very close to wizards, which is not quite the same as what is written in 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'..."

The witch with fire-red hair asked with curiosity.

"Runespoor eggs are worth a fortune, and the eggshells are made of the softest, purest silver—therefore, many wizards poach them.

Reports of Runespoor hurting people have been reported many times; this is the first time I've heard your point of view."

Witch Tina carried the rigor of a pure Horned Serpent; she was more inclined to think this was an individual case.

So the little wizards chattered and left.

Only Xiang Xien was left walking toward the old senior.

At this moment, the Runespoor in Xiang Xien's pocket drilled out quickly, and Newt let the suitcase open a slit as if he had predicted it in advance.

"Runespoor can be as tall as nine stories, but they still retain the habit of being afraid of owls when they are young.

Just like Elif, it is a Niffler, but at an unexpected moment, it stole the most important thing.

The lowly all things also have their own way."

Newt said softly.

Xiang Xien paused; he knew more facts.

For example, it was the Niffler that stole the blood pact between Dumbledore and Grindelwald before their duel.

This happened after Senior Newt made a scene at the Ministry of Magic...

Headmaster Dumbledore, Senior Newt, Harry... they had all fought at the Ministry of Magic.

... Excellent Hogwarts graduates must at least make a scene at the Ministry of Magic as an assessment.

"Can it drink tea?"

Xiang Xien said.

Newt was stunned, then laughed, and looked at Xiang Xien directly.

"Milk would be better,"

Newt said,

"Remember to hide the teaspoon too."

Once, such a conversation also happened at Hogwarts Castle, happened between the same professor and student.

"I think you have a high talent for magical creatures, and animals can also distinguish wizards better..."

Newt turned his body slightly, pressed the Niffler gently into his pocket,

"Would you like to come in and take a look?"

Xiang Xien nodded like a garlic pounder.

Regardless of whether there was a Wampus cat inside, he could learn a lot of knowledge, and this knowledge would provide great help when he made Undetectable Extension storage devices and fairy tale cookies.

Newt spread the suitcase on the ground, and then his body disappeared section by section.

Although he was a ninety-five-year-old man, his movements were still agile, and he soon disappeared without a trace.

After Senior Newt was "eaten," Xiang Xien also stepped onto the stairs with a little excitement.

Walking through the narrow entrance, what appeared before his eyes was an incomparably vast and wide world.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Xiang Xien was still shocked.

The first thing that caught his eye was a large tropical grassland area, a large rainforest area, and a boundless forest.

In the distance, one could see endless snow-capped mountains, caves, hills, sandy areas...

In higher places, above other habitats, points of fluorescence floated—this was where Newt raised glow-worms, and vines and small floating islands were intertwined.

These places seemed to have been forcibly divided, intercepted, and transferred. By the snow-capped mountains, there could even be a hot tropical grassland—where a few trees grew sparsely for the Erumpents to live.

A Bowtruckle crawled from the tree in front of Xiang Xien to Xiang Xien's shoulder, Xiang Xien looked at it with curiosity, and Newt showed a shallow smile on the side.

"People who are recognized by magical creatures, people with more talent, often embark on a more responsible path."

After Senior Newt finished speaking, he walked forward.

"So... why do we, as a social group and individuals, try to continue to protect and hide magical creatures, including those ferocious animals that cannot be tamed? Of course, the answer is: to ensure that future generations of wizards enjoy the right to appreciate their beautiful and peculiar appearance and magical abilities just like us."

Xiang Xien said the original text from "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them."

"Few people will remember this passage; compared to the magnificent introduction to magical creatures, it is not attractive."

Newt looked at Xiang Xien with a bit of shyness at having his own book's words recited.

"I think... magical creatures and we share the same wizarding world."

Xiang Xien touched Bai Yi's smooth fur; in the Chamber of Secrets, in the Forbidden Forest, Bai Yi and Tila were both partners who fought side by side with him.

Newt looked at the little wizard in a daze; he was too consistent with the description in Headmaster Dumbledore's letter, and even, more so.

"Follow me."

Newt said with a smile. ===== CHAPTER 602 =====
