From Kamal Taj to Hogwarts

In front of you is a vast forest, with beech, oak, black pine and other trees dense and prosperous. Even in the autumn when everything is withered, the place is still full of vitality.

"This place seems to look familiar inexplicably." Ghost Xiwen looked around at the surrounding environment and frowned in confusion.

He knew very well that he had never been to Albania, so he was very confused by this inexplicable feeling of familiarity.

"What's wrong, Strange?" Newt noticed Sivan's expression and asked with concern.

Xiwen suppressed the confusion in his heart and shook his head gently.

Except for the ghost Sivan who could not contact the physical body, Dumbledore and others came to Albania using a portkey.

In the face of Theseus, the director of the Auror Office, and Dumbledore, a widely expected leader in the wizarding world, the Ministry of Magic applied for a direct portkey to Albania for them with extremely high efficiency.

The ghost Sivan used the double-sided mirror carried by Newt as a location, opened the door to the dimension, and then came here.

Because Theseus and Tina were both busy with official duties, they did not come to Albania with them to look for traces of Nagini. The young wizard Sivan was forced to leave because of his young age and unknown danger.

Dumbledore drove him back to Hogwarts.

Now only Aurelius, the client, Albus and Aberforth's family members, Kama, the clue provider, and Newt, the magical animal expert, have come to Albania. As for the ghost Sivan, he was probably discovered by everyone.

Think of it as a walking portal...

"Yosef, was this the location you sensed at that time?" Dumbledore asked.

Karma looked at the tall and uniform trees around him and shook his head in confusion.

"I'm not sure, after all, it happened a few years ago." He frowned and said. "And China and Albania are thousands of miles apart. It would be too sensational to sense the exact location thousands of miles apart."

"So, why did Nagini come here?" Xiwen asked with some confusion.

"I guess Nagini wants to find her roots." Aurelius replied softly. "In fact, it's not just me who has been searching for my origin, Nagini is the same. She once told me that she

Coming from Indonesia, I can’t remember my life experience since I was a child.”

"Later, she encountered war, and she was precarious in the frequent wars. Until one day more than ten years ago, she was taken in by the circus owner. From then on, she became the boss's money-making tool, and was forced to transform into a circus owner basically every day.

Snake. This frequent transformation has greatly deepened her blood curse symptoms."

"Appearing here may be because she wants to return to her hometown by land."

"Then she must have had some accident while passing through Albania." Newt thought for a moment and analyzed. "Either she was attacked by enemies with evil intentions and fled to this forest; or she suddenly lost control of the blood curse.

Meredigos' transformation, in order not to attract attention, can only go to the forest to hide himself."

Aurelius nodded with a heavy face, acknowledging Newt's analysis.

"Don't worry so much now, we should start looking for some clues in the forest now." Dumbledore shook his head and interrupted them. "Newt, you should be good at this."

Newt nodded slightly, took out his wand from his pocket, and chanted the spell——

"Appare Vestigium."

He rotated once, and the wand ejected a golden light spot, illuminating all traces of nearby magical activity.

Everyone present looked at the trajectories of various magical creatures illuminated by golden light with dazzled eyes, and they all frowned.

"Newt, after all, it was several years ago that the looking glass was destroyed. The tracking spell can't detect things that far back." Karma walked to Newt and said with a frown.

"I know, but it can at least tell us the activity traces of magical creatures around us, and we can infer something else based on them." Newt smiled.

Then, Newt leaned down, almost lying on the ground, staring straight at a winding track.

"He looks very skilled." Aberforth looked at Newt's movements and couldn't help but muttered.

"That's the way Newt is. If you want to find something in the wild, Newt is the right choice." Dumbledore chuckled and explained to Aberforth and Aurelius. "He basically put it in the wild."

Half of my life is spent searching for and accompanying these endangered and magical animals.”

"I have witnessed Newt's growth and changes." Dumbledore said with a smile. "There is one thing in him that has never changed, and that is Newt's deepest love for life. It has always been like this!"

Aurelius's eyes were touched, and he suddenly recalled the scene when Newt tried to help him in the Magnesium Kingdom.

In Dumbledore's words, Newt's behavior of crawling on the ground no longer seems funny, but reflects a different kind of greatness!

"Found it!" Newt suddenly stood up and shouted excitedly.

Everyone present also became energetic and looked at Newt one after another.

Newt didn't care at all about the mud on his body. He gently waved his wand to remove the excess traces in the golden light, leaving only some tracks that were either meandering forward or extending in a straight line.

"Look, these are the tracks of the magical vipers in this forest." Newt pointed to these golden traces and said to everyone. "Nagini's Meredigos will belong to the viper after it transforms.

If the blood curse really broke out when she passed by here, then she should stay with other vipers."

"Wait, why do you think Nagini would stay with other vipers?" Kama asked in confusion. "And just from these tracks, how can we tell that it comes from vipers?

What about?"

The others also nodded slightly and looked at Newt in confusion, waiting for his explanation.

"We all know that after the Meredigos Blood Curse completely breaks out, Nagini will lose her humanity and only retain the wildness and instinct of animals." Newt looked at Aurelius apologetically and explained in detail.

"Snakes are social animals, and they will instinctively gather together with their own kind during hibernation to keep warm and moisturized."

"It's late autumn now, and it's almost time for snakes to hibernate."

Hearing Newt's description of the snake, Aurelius suddenly thought that Nagini might lose her humanity and become like a real snake. His expression became very painful.

But his painful state only lasted for a second before he completely recovered and turned into a more determined look.

"So, why can we be sure that these trajectories are from the Viper?" Aurelius took a deep breath and looked at Newt and asked.

"Because of the way they walk." Newt saw the change in Aurelius's eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, then explained. "Vipers don't have a sternum, and their ribs can move back and forth freely, so there is this linear extension.

Movement trajectory; of course, it is also possible to meander forward like other snakes, but it will consume more energy."

"Is this a magizoologist? Too powerful..." Sivan nodded silently, expressing his admiration for Newt.

"I understand." Aurelius also nodded solemnly to Newt, and then said firmly.

"In this case, let's set off as soon as possible!"
