Chapter 189 Fantastic Beasts Are Here

It was lunch time, and with the help of Hermione and Elizabeth, Tina made a sumptuous lunch: roast lamb chops, venison roast pie stuffed with potatoes, carrots and onions, and wafting The rich and creamy clam chowder, and the staple food are all kinds of breads brought by Jacob.

Although the food carefully prepared by Tina was also delicious, Jacob’s bread was more popular. The bread he makes is very unique, and the shapes are all based on magical animals.

These breads have a unique aroma, are crispy and soft, and are extremely delicious.

Little Nicole picked up a piece of bread shaped like an invisible beast and took a few vicious bites, as if she was venting her grievances about the invisible beast not being close to her.

After the pleasant lunch, Jacob was going back to Rivington Street to look at his bakery. While eating at the table, he mentioned that some of his new students were clumsy and he was not reassured.

Queenie did not choose to go back with him. Nicole inherited her Legilimency talent and she had to teach her how to control it.

As a born Legilimency, when she was young, Queenie, like Nicole, couldn’t control whether she heard the thoughts of those around her. But after years of experimentation, Queenie gradually mastered a way to turn it off.

She had to teach this method to Nicole while she was still young.

Queenie is well aware of how disturbing it can be for herself and the client to hear other people’s inner voices without her own control. She once did something wrong because of this, but fortunately Jacob’s feelings for her remained consistent and allowed her to get back on track.

She doesn’t want her granddaughter to make the same mistake.

Elvis, Hermione and Elizabeth went to work for Newt at his invitation.

“People are old……”

Newt sighed with emotion. Although he liked to walk around with his suitcase when he was young, he is now over ninety years old. Even though wizards live longer than Muggles, it is true that their bodies and bones are not as strong as before.

“Two days ago, I rescued a horse-shaped water monster that was smuggled into the country by smugglers.” Newt began to explain what they were going to do next.”There was a wound left by black magic on its back, which has not healed for a long time.”

“Perhaps because of the smugglers, the horse-shaped water monster is extremely wary of humans. As soon as I get close, it will dive back to the bottom of the water. Elizabeth couldn’t help but asked:”Mr. Scamander, with your ability, it shouldn’t be difficult to catch a horse-shaped water monster, right?””

“Just call me Newt,” Newt paused.”……I’m afraid that using magic to catch it will make it struggle even more and cause the wound to expand. I’ve tried many times but haven’t been able to cure it, and you guys are here to help me out.”

He kept staring in the direction of Ives. Ives’s strange affinity with magical animals might really be able to lure the horse-shaped water monster out.

“learn.”The three of them nodded in unison, especially Hermione, who already showed an impatient expression.

Just when she heard Neeko show off to them at the dinner table how many magical animals there were in Newt’s secret base, Hermione had been secretly regretting it. If she had known earlier, she would have asked Ives to help in the kitchen, and she followed Nicole to visit!

Following Newt to the lake in that space, Elizabeth and Hermione had an eye-opening experience along the way. But there is still business at the moment If they had to do it, they could only wait until the business was done before visiting again.

In the distance, they could see a horse-shaped water monster lying on the shore.

Before they could get closer, it seemed to smell a dangerous breath. He stood up straight and was about to dive back to the bottom of the lake.

Ives raised his wand and was about to use a binding spell to lock it in place when he was stopped by Newt. Newt shook his head slowly:”Aves, I don’t advocate it. Take the initiative to hurt them.”

Avis stared at his eyes hidden behind thick bangs, as bright as a salamander.

He nodded,”I understand.”

While they were chatting, the horse-shaped water monster had already dived back into the lake. It hid its huge body under the surface of the lake, only revealing a huge head with broad-leaf cattail grass as a mane.

It stared at Ivey. In the direction of Si, although there is a smell coming from this short human that makes it subconsciously feel close to it, it has just escaped from the smugglers, and the wound on its back is still aching.

This is the time when it least trusts humans..

A huge vortex appeared silently on the lake, and then a huge, half-ghost-like horse-shaped water monster jumped out. It opened its mouth towards the few people who had walked to the shore, revealing a sharp sawtooth. shaped teeth.

Although it secretly reminded itself that humans are not good things, when it launched an attack, it still subconsciously avoided the position where Ivis was standing.

Newt took out his wand, and the silver-white chain came from him The tip of the wand shot out, shooting towards the water monster. When it was about to get close to the water monster, it transformed into a large net of magic power.

This is a binding magic that will only temporarily trap the water monster’s movements, not the water monster. Causing damage to it.

The water monster roared up to the sky and jumped back. After avoiding the big net, it slapped its fish-like tail hard on the water. The lake water rose into the sky and turned into many water columns, some of which engulfed Newt’s body. The binding magic penetrated, and several others were shot directly at the people on the shore.

This is one of the abilities of the horse-shaped water monster. It can control the nearby water flow.

Ives tapped the wand and blocked all the water jets that hit them.

“Ives, do you know how to subdue the kelpie?”Newt suddenly asked

“Use the placement spell to put a bridle on its head!”Miss Know-It-All answered first. She raised her wand and looked at the horse-shaped water monster in the distance.

She still underestimated this magical animal with a four-star rating. Hermione thought she could be of some help. But she suddenly realized that she seemed to be only doing a disservice

“Great,” Newt blinked. This rush to answer gave him the illusion of returning to Hogwarts, even though he was expelled halfway.”If I were a professor at Hogwarts, I would Five points for you.”

Newt still remembers that during his few years as a student, students from the four major colleges would rush to answer questions in class like crazy in order to win the College Cup.

Ives rolled up his sleeves, pointed his wand at himself, and gave He cast a warming charm and a head-soaking charm on himself – he was about to jump into the lake to subdue the bad-tempered wild horse.

Under the eyes of the other three people, he suddenly ran forward a few steps and jumped straight into the lake. , countless water splashed on the lake.

If this was a diving competition, Ives would definitely get zero points.

Seeing this, the horse-shaped water monster’s body completely sank to the bottom of the lake. It turned around and its half-ghost-like body transformed into a water snake.

This is also the ability of the horse-shaped water monster, which

can change its shape at will.

It is precisely because of its unique ability that the horse-shaped water monster has always been a smuggling area. Some wizards have eccentricities and especially like to experiment with animals, such as Goats. Especially those in India like to buy water monsters and transform them into Komodo dragons.

This is what they heard Newt mention on the way here. After listening, the three little wizards had a different perspective. It was broken to pieces on the ground.

The water snake-like water monster swam extremely fast at the bottom of the lake. Although it was full of hatred and wary of humans, it just didn’t want to hurt the boy who had been chasing it.

Under the lake,

Avis’s head was smashed by a A transparent cover covered it. This was the effect of the Bubble Charm, which allowed the caster to breathe normally and move around for a long time even when underwater.

He held his wand tightly in his right hand and pointed backwards, and there was a flow of air. It sprayed out from the tip of his wand, making him swim much faster in the water.

One person and one beast chased me under the water. On the shore, Newt called to the two remaining little witches,”Use the barrier with me.” curse.”

Under his leadership, the three of them kept using obstacle spells towards the lake.

The horse-shaped water monster’s perception in the water was extremely sharp, and they did not need to worry that it would hit the obstacle charm and injure itself. Those with obstacle spells Help, the water monster’s range of activities will be greatly restricted, and Avis can catch up with it.

Just as Newt expected, the sudden obstacles in the water caused the horse-shaped water monster to slow down. In order to avoid their obstacle spell , it had to brake and slow down.

After a few more minutes, Ives finally caught up with it.

When the distance between the two was only the last two meters, the airflow from the tip of his staff suddenly accelerated, It hit the back of the water monster in a straight line.

At the moment of collision, Ives successfully stopped and grabbed the water plants on the back of the water monster.

The water monster felt pain and neighed, and then it headed towards Jumping on the lake.

With a pop, it jumped out of the lake, jumped into the air, then turned around and crashed into the lake from mid-air, causing countless splashes.

This is horse-shaped water���His favorite trick is to plunge into the bottom of the lake and drown the enemy riding on it, but this is also the best time for Ives to subdue it.

Returning to the lake with the water monster, Ives’ right hand firmly grasped the water plants on its back. He waved the wand with his left hand quickly, and a bridle appeared out of thin air and was put on its head.

At first, the horse-shaped water monster struggled a few times, but soon it lost its temper and became extremely docile.

The bubble on Ives’s head burst when the water monster jumped to the lake. He held his breath and pulled the reins behind the horse’s bridle hard.

The three people on the shore were waiting anxiously, and they were relieved until they saw the horse-shaped water monster emerging from the water, with a brown-haired boy riding behind it.

The water monster carried Ives and slowly swam to the shore.

Elvis rolled over and tied the reins to a wooden stake. Newt quickly took out the potion that he had prepared long ago to treat the water monster.

Newt looked at the wounds caused by the black magic on its back, and said with some difficulty:”Fortunately, I subdued it in time and didn’t drag it back any further.”

After using the magic spell to dry all the clothes on his body, Ivy Si also moved closer, and only then did he see clearly how seriously injured the horse-shaped water monster was.

There were several scars on its back, several of which were strip wounds caused by being whipped with a whip. They had already scabbed over and were not serious. But on its back, close to the waist, there was a deep cut with bone visible. The breath of black magic was entangled in it, and the blood flowing out turned a strange dark green color.

With such a serious injury, it’s no wonder his magical animal affinity didn’t have much effect.

Newt’s wand pointed at the water monster’s wound, lighting up with white light, and the dark magic entangled in it gradually melted away.

The horse-shaped water monster showed a comfortable expression, and its head leaned forward and gently arched against Newt’s body.

Newt smiled and stretched out his hand, stroked its head and said softly:”Be good, let us give you some medicine.””

“Avis, come and give it some medicine.”Newt said suddenly.

Although they were a little confused at first, under his guidance, the three of them quickly applied the medicine to the water monster.

After applying the medicine, Newt took off the bridle on the water monster’s head..

Without the restraint of a rope, the horse-shaped water monster that was supposed to escape quickly did not move. Instead, it stepped on brisk hooves and spun in front of the four people.

Although Newt helped it get rid of the black magic, but It liked Ives more. It put its head in front of Ives and slowly shook it, showing a coquettish expression.

Ives was a little helpless. As soon as he raised his hand, the water monster put its head under his palm, affectionately. Rubbing it up

“Although I have said it once this morning,” Newt sighed,”I still have to express my feelings towards your affinity for magical animals. Ives rubbed the water monster’s slippery head and asked curiously:”Mr. Scamander, where did you rescue this water monster?””

“I rescued it from the hands of the Mysterious Circus,” Newt sighed.”My friends in Congress found out that they had recently fled to the United States to hold performances, so I went there to try to see if I could bring those The poor creatures were saved.”

Mystery Circus, a magical circus that uses magical animal performances as its gimmick. The magical animals in their hands are usually smuggled or poached, and those poor creatures will also suffer inhuman torture at their hands.

Many countries The existence of such performances has been expressly prohibited.

But even after several crackdowns from the Ministry of Magic, the Mystic Circus has still survived until now. It will hold performances from time to time in gathering places for dark wizards. However, it initially relied on the audience Different from the rewards, their current method of profit mainly relies on smuggling magical animals.

Therefore, Newt has been tracking their traces

“……After they threw the horse-shaped water monster down, I had to give up chasing them. Newt recalled that this was the whole process of catching the horse-shaped water monster.

He blinked and said:”After all, the horse-shaped water monster is an Irish species and is not suitable to stay in New York.” I was wondering if you would do me a favor and take it back to England?”

“certainly. Ives replied with a smile. He read another meaning from Newt’s tone – he could keep the water monster in his box.

Of course Ives would be happy to oblige. It means that he will have another member in his big family, and he will be one step closer to his original dream.
