A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 501 Magical Creatures
"Hi, Newt," Felix said to the busy figure, "Anything?"

"I'm not sure." Newt straightened up from the table, hurriedly jotted down a few notes in his notes, stared at the rampant "big scorpions" in the glass cabinet, and said hesitantly: "Hagrid calls it fried tails." Snails? Looks like they have a bad temper, are they in estrus? Some animals get silly when they're in estrus...and so do some people."

"No one is sure, this creature has been in reality for less than a year, and no one can figure out its habits." Felix said, "Originally, Hagrid was taking care of them, but he had to travel far away. Before leaving, he gave me the last few. He is also very eager to get your opinion."

"It will take some time to observe." Newt stared intently at the glass cabinet, "It is first and foremost to confirm whether the snails can reproduce stably under natural conditions—otherwise they can only disappear in history—there are too many There are many examples of people intervening to create new species but failing, Hagrid didn't let magic participate in it, which is good, there is a possibility of stable existence-I think I should build a venue, your magic has been restraining them."

He raised his head with an eager expression on his face.

"Build it strong," Felix reminded him. "I've never seen a docile snail. They don't seem to have brains."

Newt nodded.

Felix held Varun in his arms, and together they looked at the ball of wool hanging from the top of their head.

It was a prickly prickly sac, and just as they were observing, the prickly prickly sac suddenly opened and turned into some kind of huge butterfly-like reptile, with a pair of skeleton-like wings, which looked terrifying and hung upside down like a bat Looking at them, Valen in his arms was startled.

In the next second, it retracted again.

"Winged Demon, when it's not flying, it will hide itself in a prickly sac. This one is not dangerous, but you'd better not get too close, Norris is a bit shy." Newt said with a smile secretly.

"Hey?" Varen was still in shock, patting his small chest.

"Norris, his name." Newt repeated, "It's like you're Niffler, but named Warren." He looked at Felix, "I can't believe that she has learned to write, although The words are a bit ugly, but...uh, it's already very good, reminding me of my brother." His last sentence was almost whispered.

Felix stared at the curled up Winged Demon, and couldn't help smacking his lips, "Valen is still better." He didn't want to be like that. "So you trained it?" He suddenly thought of something, and asked curiously, "This thing is quite dangerous in the wild."

Newt showed a reminiscing expression.

"I once raised a crouching demon. He helped me a lot. Norris is his descendant."

"I see," Felix nodded, and he asked softly, "I guess that Winged Demon caught Grindelwald for you?"

"Oh, oh—" Newt looked at him, "Headmaster Dumbledore told you?"

"No, my source of information is an assistant teacher of Ilvermorny." Felix explained, "He told me that there is a hidden statue of a crouching devil in the hall of the Magical Congress of America, near the courtroom... The inscription on the stone reads 'It assisted in defeating the source of unrest'."

"It is said that this statue was left by Serafina Picquery, the chairman of the Magical Congress of America. I guessed so based on the background at that time." He added.

Newt put down what he was doing, and fell into a distant memory, "I can't reveal more - it involves Headmaster Dumbledore. But so far, what you said is correct."

"What kind of person is Grindelwald?" Felix asked keenly, "Shouldn't this be considered illegal?"

"...not...he is very proud, or confident...and very charismatic, although I don't like this very much, and it caused a lot of trouble at the time..." Newt's voice gradually lowered, only then , he is like an old man close to a hundred years old.

Two days later, Felix bid his farewell.

"Hey, Lightning, you're here too." Felix said to the invisible beast next to Newt, which revealed its form today and looked like a sloth.Felix handed it an apple.

"Your research done?" Newt asked.

"It's done, much faster than I imagined." Felix said with satisfaction: "I guess it may be because I gave up some goals on my own initiative. After all, poison horned beasts and moon crazy beasts are not very suitable... "

And it doesn't look good.

"Can I ask," Newt said with an interested expression, "You told me earlier that you wanted to observe the structure of magical animals, using magic—the word is 'scanning'?" He glanced at Felix, Felix Stein nodded at him.

"Hmm—scanning with magic power, to be honest, I don't quite understand it, it sounds like the process of getting familiar with deformed creatures in Transfiguration..."

"You're right," Felix said with a slight smile.

"It's really Transfiguration? But it shouldn't be. Ordinary Transfiguration can only change the appearance of magical animals, but can't show the essence. Even the advanced Animagus only removes some disadvantages..." Newt burst into tears Talk to yourself.

"Even Principal Dumbledore—wait a minute, I seem to have seen a similar scene, but it wasn't a complete transformation, and even the skin was changed very little. I always thought it was magic that I didn't know."

Newt's eyes were shining, and he stared at Felix with curiosity.

"Can you really do it, can I see it?"

"Of course, it's an honor to be able to demonstrate this skill to the world's greatest expert on magical creatures."

Varen stood on the table, also looking at Felix expectantly.Even though it has been seen in advance, I still feel surprised, what kind of species is the big devil?The invisible beast gnawing on the fruit suddenly opened its eyes wide, and the fruit fell to the ground - it had already seen the next scene.

Felix tilted his head, stared at his fingers cautiously, and began to cast Transfiguration.A strange feeling spread throughout the body.His body seemed to be melting, his hands began to shrink and merge into his sides, his torso and neck continued to elongate, a pair of blue wings ripped through his clothes like a scimitar, and emerged from his back... Felix He didn't feel any pain, but was warm; there was no panic in his heart, only peace—because he knew what the transformation target was, and he also knew that his body could adapt to this level of change.

He is a magical creature.

Felix lowered his head, but his body swelled rapidly, and his eyes were higher than Newt's.The blue, bird-like head was about the size of an invisible beast, and looked down at the people present from a high position. Its eyes moved slightly, and it could easily see rivers, caves, and plains farther away.

Tall, brightly feathered, over a hundred feet long.

He turned into a bird snake.
