The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

"Dear Principal Dumbledore, I have received your letter. First of all, I would like to thank you for caring so much about your favorite student after so many years (even though Grindelwald almost took my life because of this title). (life), Tina's physical condition is still very good, she can still go out for a walk with me every day, and she was very happy when she heard you praise Luo Fu for his serious study."

"Well, as for the few drops of blood sealed in the mithril test tube you sent, I carefully checked it with a very cautious experimental attitude. I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask where you got it. With such high-purity dragon blood, the blood in the test tube is closer to their ancestors, the giant dragons, than today's fire dragons. After all, today's fire dragons are just large lizards that can breathe fire, but the giant dragons in the barbaric era can The existence of burning cities at will, if the Holy See had not killed the black emperor in the end, this world should belong to the dragon instead of us."

"And what you told me about the attacks on Hogwarts students. I have read a lot of literature in the past two days, and finally focused on three magical creatures."

"The first type is the manticore, which is an evil beast that was still very rampant in ancient Greece. Their tail is a ball full of spikes. When attacking, they will swing their tail hard to make the spikes pop out. , the venom of this creature can turn people to stone. But the size of this thing is so big, I seriously doubt whether the corridors of Hogwarts can accommodate a head of this thing." .

"The second type is the basilisk, a large snake with hard scales all over its body and hard red feathers on its head. Its venom is very deadly and can burn the body and soul of people at the same time. The gaze of the basilisk is direct Looking at each other will kill you on the spot, but if you see the basilisk's eyes through other objects, you will be petrified into a statue. But like the manticore I mentioned above, although this thing is more flexible than it, The size is also larger, and similarly, I highly doubt whether this thing can enter the corridors of Hogwarts."

"The third type is the Gorgon, an evil succubus. Regardless of whether you look at the succubus through the glass or not, you will be petrified into a statue. Among these three, I think the Gorgon is the most likely. Yes, because this evil black magic creature is very good at hiding itself and hates humans. I suggest Dumbledore to carefully check the students in the school, because Gorgon is very good at disguising itself. If you don’t use special powers, If you use the manifesting spell, no one will find that the long, silky hair on a certain beauty's head is actually a small snake."

"I heard that the youngest daughter of the Greengrass family has successfully entered school. Please congratulate her for me. Two days ago, a bird snake in my house laid an empty egg because it always stayed up late. I have put the eggshell with this letter. The letter is sent to you (the eggshell of the bird snake is very hard. Jacob has tried it with a hammer before, so there is no need to worry about it being damaged by bumps). Please hand over the eggshell of the bird snake to Astori. She held it in her hand and told her it was Grandpa Scamander's Christmas gift to her."

"The foreign affairs department of China sent me an invitation letter two days ago. Because the weather has turned cold recently, a large number of Siberian black dragons have begun to move south from the northern border of China. If these ferocious creatures are not controlled, they will have a negative impact on the local population. Muggles have caused huge casualties, especially this year - the strength and control capabilities of the Russian Ministry of Magic are obviously not as good as those of the former Soviet Ministry of Magical Internal Affairs."

"So this year, in addition to the necessary inspection methods in previous years, the wizards in China had to coordinate some Muggle troops who were familiar with wizarding society to set up anti-aircraft guns (a weapon used to shoot down aircraft in wars) on the border. This thing can indeed cause huge damage to the fire dragon). However, they are not familiar with the habits of the Siberian black dragon. In order to avoid casualties and property losses as much as possible, they invited me to on-site guidance."

"Finally, I sent a box of comfortable and warm bedding to the attic in Nurmengard, plus a few coats to keep out the cold - this is what I promised Grindelwald when he was in prison. He gave I wrote back, let me tell you a Merry Christmas, and hope you can mail him a hot turkey - those Oros from the United States always make things difficult for him, but if you mail it in person, they He should not dare to do anything."

——Newt Scamander

ps: After studying the blood in the test tube, I have used strong fire to dispose of it, and it burned very clean.

Dumbledore read the letter silently, then placed the letter gently on the table, and then stared blankly at the snowy scene outside the window, motionless.

"Fox".

After a long time, Dumbledore said slowly.

The big fiery red bird that looked a little old screamed, and then flew to Dumbledore's desk.

"Thank you for your hard work Fox, let's go to the kitchen to pack some food first, and then"...

Dumbledore took a deep breath and then said:

"Going to visit an old friend in Nurmengard".

Phoenix Fawkes let out a loud neigh, and then flew to Dumbledore's shoulder.

With a burst of golden-red flames suddenly exploding, Dumbledore and his phoenix disappeared into the air that still had residual heat.

Today is the day before Christmas. The previous attacks really affected everyone’s atmosphere and mood. Many students chose to return to their homes for Christmas, so the school decided to move the Christmas banquet to before Christmas. Held in one day.

With a crisp chirp, Dumbledore appeared on the principal's desk accompanied by a ball of golden and red flames.

"Ah, I'm sorry for being late, everyone. I'm very sorry for delaying your meal. I'll keep the story short today."

The noisy auditorium fell silent, and everyone looked up at Dumbledore.

"Have a good meal. Everyone is hungry. I just want to say thank you."

Dumbledore blinked mischievously, then waved his hand, and countless delicacies began to pop out of the plate out of thin air.

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and then started to laugh happily because of the principal's naughtiness.

The dark clouds that had hung over everyone because of the attack seemed to have dissipated a lot.

"Ah Severus, I have something else to do, so I won't eat here. Well..."

Dumbledore reached out and dug into the inner pocket of his robe, and pulled out a beautiful silver-white eggshell.

"This is Mr. Scamander's gift to Miss Greengrass. Please give it to her for me."
