Hogwarts vampire professor

Chapter 156 Newt’s Magical Suitcase

"So is there any way you can help Nagini recover now?" A glimmer of hope appeared in Newt's eyes.

He suddenly thought that this person in front of him was the ancestor of almost all blood magic. Maybe he would have a way to help Nagini lift Meredix's blood curse?

"It's difficult." Dracula walked quietly to Viper and said softly, "She has completely lost her consciousness as a human now, and she may have been unconscious for a long time."

"Look at me." He looked into Nagini's eyes and said suddenly.

Nagini subconsciously raised her head and looked into Dracula's burgundy eyes.

In an instant, countless chaotic memories poured into Dracula's mind——

Nagini's earliest memories were intermittent, and it seemed that a piece of memory would be missing every once in a while; and as time went by, the intermittent memories gradually became coherent...the missing memories became more and more Less, until all the memories are connected.

Not only that, the earliest memories are not only missing, but also very vague. They seem to be in a state of ignorance and confusion, just like a newborn baby...

As the memory slowly became coherent, Nagini's consciousness gradually awakened, her memory became clearer, and her wisdom increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the end, when the scene in Nagini's memory appeared in a forest, there was no gap in the memory.

Dracula watched in silence as Nagini's memory went from intermittent to complete. He knew that this was the beast consciousness coming from the blood curse of Meredix gradually taking over the original Nagini, causing her memory to slowly disappear. In the passage of time.

When the memory picture that Dracula could see became completely clear and complete, that was the moment when Nagini's original consciousness completely dissipated.

"It is true that the human consciousness cannot be found in this snake." Dracula crossed his arms and slowly exhaled, "The original consciousness of Nagini had completely dissipated decades ago. What replaces it is the viper’s consciousness.”

Newt was stunned for a moment, but surprisingly he wasn't too sad. He just sighed helplessly.

Deep down in his heart, he had actually been mentally prepared, and he had guessed Nagini's final outcome as a Meredix blood-cursed orc.

"I want to take Nagini away," Newt said softly. "Maybe there will be a chance to find another way to lift the blood curse in the future?"

Dracula naturally had no objection and nodded casually.

However, this time the basilisk was unwilling.

It brought its big green head over and shook it anxiously, as if it was raising some objection.

"Why, do you have any objections?" Dracula raised the corner of his mouth and reached out to pat the basilisk's head. "But don't think about it. When I'm here, how do you have the right to speak?"

The basilisk's movements froze.

Even in such a reluctant situation, it did not dare to open its eyes, which shows how afraid it is of Dracula.

This basilisk has no courage to refute Dracula at all.

"Mr. Basilisk, don't you want your friend to be taken away?" Newt looked at the Basilisk very understandingly and asked in a gentle tone.

As if grasping a life-saving straw, the basilisk sneaked away from Dracula and kept nodding at Newt.

"That's right. You two snakes may be the only intelligent creatures in the entire forest." Newt nodded thoughtfully, "If I take Nagini away, you snakes will stay here alone. It must be very lonely..."

"Hiss—" The basilisk lay at Newt's feet, with an even somewhat anthropomorphic expression of hope on its face.

It had endured loneliness in the basement of Hogwarts Castle for too long, and it didn't want to experience the experience of the past thousand years again.

Now that I have finally made a snake friend who is also highly intelligent, why would I want this friend to be taken away by a stranger who suddenly arrives?

"Mr. Scamander, actually you don't have to take care of this basilisk's emotions." Dracula looked at the basilisk who was trying hard to please Newt and shook his head with a smile, "Just take Nagini away. , I will take care of it."

He walked up to the basilisk and said to it, "Don't think I don't know. As long as you shed a layer of skin and take a nap, decades will pass and you won't be as lonely as you imagine."

"Otherwise, you can sleep until Mr. Scamander dies. If you haven't found a way to remove Nagini's Meredix blood curse by then, I will personally bring her back to keep you company. !”

After hearing Dracula's "good idea", despite Inuit's good temper, his face turned dark.

"Ahem, Professor Dracula, I don't think I can die that easily..." He coughed twice.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Scamander, actually I didn't mean anything bad." Dracula then realized that what he just said was inappropriate and changed his words.

But then, he couldn't help but add: "But you really won't live longer than me and the basilisk, so there's actually nothing wrong with my idea..."

Newt's face darkened.

"It's okay, I understand you don't mean any harm..." he said, "I wonder if you are interested in hearing the solution I came up with?"

"I would like to hear the details," Dracula said.

"Actually... I can take Mr. Basilisk away with me, so that he won't feel lonely." Newt licked the corners of his mouth unconsciously, and his eyes seemed to sparkle.

Dracula: "..."

It turns out that you guy had this idea!

Dracula seriously doubted that Newt wanted to take the basilisk away the first time he saw it...perhaps even without Nagini, an old friend, he would have proposed the idea of ​​taking the basilisk away.

It's just that Nagini's introduction made Newt's ideas more reasonable...

However, Dracula thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that there was nothing wrong with letting Newt, the best magical zoologist in the world, take away the basilisk——

Because of the special and cruel magical talent, no matter where the basilisk is placed, it is actually very risky.

What if one day, a few unlucky Muggles came to explore this forest in Albania and encountered a basilisk; at the same time, the basilisk played too selflessly and forgot to close its eyes in time... Then the tragedy is likely to be like this Sloppiness happened.

Dracula wanted to place the basilisk in the Albanian forest, and his main idea was to let it help find Ravenclaw's diadem.

Now that the crown has been returned to its original owner, the basilisk naturally no longer has to stay in this forest.

So Dracula shrugged and looked at the basilisk.

"What do you think?" he asked.

The basilisk shook its head quickly.

After spending some time in an environment as large as the Albanian forest, it never wanted to move into any human residence.

Even if it is as grand and wide as Hogwarts Castle, the space for the Basilisk to move around is only a basement that is quite narrow for it, a pipe that extends in all directions but makes it difficult for it to turn around, and the only space that can be considered open. small underground square.

Compared to the vast forest, it was like the difference between a Quidditch pitch and Myrtle's bathroom!

The basilisk didn't believe that the living environment Newt could provide for it would be bigger than Hogwarts, let alone compared to the forests of Albania.

Newt seemed to see why the basilisk was reluctant, and couldn't help laughing.

"If it's because of the range of activities, then you don't actually have to worry." He opened the old-fashioned suitcase in his hand and laid it flat on the ground. "You can come in and take a look. This box is nothing like this forest." Small!"

The basilisk still shook its head.

Although this person looks quite pleasing to the eye, he actually said such nonsense to deceive snakes. Do you really think you are a stupid snake?

He must have wanted to use sweet talk to trick himself into this small box. Once he entered, he immediately closed the box.

The basilisk felt that he had seen the truth clearly.

"What's wrong, don't you believe it?" Newt laughed dumbly and turned to look at Dracula helplessly: "Professor Dracula, his wisdom is indeed too high, and now he is beginning to doubt what I said."

"I didn't expect you to be quite vigilant." Dracula kicked the basilisk's thick snake body with interest, "Mr. Scamander didn't lie to you, his box is indeed as big as a forest! "

"Nico once told me that the interesting magizoologist was carrying a box, and the box looked like a small world. Now, decades have passed since the Global Wizarding War, and this one doesn't look very impressive. I’m afraid the box will become even bigger.”

With Dracula's endorsement, the basilisk finally believed that Newt's box had enough space.

But it is still hesitant, not knowing whether the environment inside is as beautiful as this forest and whether there is sufficient food and water.

"If you're still worried, I actually have snakes like runes, bird snakes, and horned water snakes in this box." Newt saw the basilisk's hesitation and smiled at it.

"Although these snakes are not more intelligent than you and Nagini, they are not bad at all. At least they can give you some other partners, right?"

After hearing Newt's words, the Basilisk finally made up his mind.

It snaked its huge body and got into Newt's suitcase.

The suitcase seemed to be elastic, expanding the entrance into an oval shape, just enough to accommodate the thick body of the basilisk oak tree.

"Remember to close your eyes and don't hurt other animals!" Newt shouted from behind his tail.

After the basilisk got inside Newt's old-fashioned suitcase, Nagini followed suit.

Then, Newt turned his attention to Dracula, smiled and extended the invitation:

"Professor Dracula, are you interested in coming to my world of magical animals?"

Dracula slowly raised the corners of his mouth, with a look of interest on his face.

"Of course, I've wanted to visit this legendary suitcase for a long time," he chuckled.

The two of them walked to the edge of the suitcase together and looked down along the opening of the suitcase. They could see a deep hole and a light seemed to be on inside the suitcase.

A narrow wooden ladder leads from the ground to the outside of the box.

Even though Newt is no longer young, he is still very agile and quickly climbed into the box very skillfully.

"You can come down now, Professor Dracula!" Soon, Newt descended to the bottom of the ladder, and his voice came from far away from the box, "Please help me close the lid after you come down!"

Dracula shrugged and did not reach out to hold the ladder connecting the upper and lower steps. Instead, he jumped up lightly.

The cloak behind him spread out like black and red flames. As Dracula landed lightly on the ground inside the box, it slowly closed and retracted, hanging flatly at his ankles.

Then, Dracula raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The lid of the box closed with a snap, and it was a tight fit, even the snap buttons were fastened tightly.

"Um...Professor Dracula," Newt said with a dull expression as he looked at the closed lid of the box, "You fastened the snap button, so how can we get out?"

Dracula's cold and cold expression suddenly froze on his face.

"Unlocking spell?" he asked quietly.

"To ensure safety, I cast an anti-locking charm on the lid..." Newt covered his face.

"It's okay, I'll take action." Dracula rubbed his brows, "In the worst case, I'll just destroy the lid of the box and just fix it after we get out."

"Don't!" Newt quickly stopped him. "I can ask Teddy to put his claws out of the box and pull out the snaps from the inside. There is no need to destroy the box."

"Well, it turns out that sniffing has such a use." Dracula shrugged helplessly.

After solving the problem of how to open the lid from the inside, the two of them walked out of the small compartment where the ladder was placed.

Behind the compartment is a small workspace, which contains a camp bed, several tropical clothes, a small wooden table, a half-sized bookshelf, and various tools hung on the wall.

In addition, there are many manuscripts and books about magical beasts in the workshop - just the kind of cowhide books that Newt had taken out before, filling most of the bookshelf here.

Newt took off a set of work clothes from the wall and put them on, then pushed open the wooden door on the side of the workroom.

"Welcome to the world of magical animals!" he said happily.

Dracula looked in the direction of the wooden door with interest——

As the wooden door opens, a new world appears in front of Dracula!

The first thing that comes into view is a forest. There are countless tall trees growing in the forest. Some round bird's nests made of bamboo are hung on the trees. A group of strange birds are playing in the woods.

Looking back through the woods, you can see a different scenery. There are a large swath of tropical grassland, a large tract of tropical rain forest, a sandy land illuminated by the moonlight, a small mountain top made of rocks, etc...

"I really underestimated your creativity, Mr. Scamander."

Dracula had a rare look of surprise in his eyes, admiring this magical world with great interest.

"Actually, this place was only as big as a small courtyard at first..."

As Newt spoke, he casually took a bottle of bait from the roadside, nonchalantly put his hand into the bottle filled with meat worms, and scattered the worms into the round bird's nest in the forest.

"But as my appetite gradually grew, and more and more magical animals were rescued, I had to constantly use the traceless stretching spell to expand this old box that has been with me for decades."

"Gradually, I found that letting animals stay in ordinary boxes was not suitable for their growth. So I taught myself some useful herbalism, plant growth spells, weather spells and other magics, trying to transform a land suitable for animal life. environment of."

"Unknowingly, this suitcase slowly turned into what it is now... This is also the most proud thing in my life."

While feeding the small animals in the bird's nest, Newt told the story of this magical suitcase, his eyes full of tenderness and relief.

"It's amazing." Dracula looked at the various ecological environments around him and strolled up to Newt.

He watched Newt feeding the small animals, and found that there were several magical little animals with blue-purple scales all over their bodies in the round bird's nest, with the body of a snake and the head of a bird.

They were lying in the nest with their bodies coiled up, their mouths open, as if they were waiting for food.

"Is this the bird snake you introduced to the Basilisk before?" Dracula asked with interest.

"Yes, it's the bird snake." Newt fed the bird snake babies like a wet nurse, and explained to Dracula at the same time, "Even though they look very small now, in fact this magical animal can fill the gap between Fill the entire space where they are.”

"At its largest, the bird snake can be over fifteen feet tall!"

"It seems that even if they grow to their maximum size, they are still far behind the basilisk." Dracula said with a smile.

"Professor Dracula, the bird snake can reach a height of fifteen feet, not a length." Newt smiled and shook his head, "If calculated in terms of length, they can also be fifty feet."

"Is that so?" Dracula raised his eyebrows, "That's really a big one."

Then, he suddenly thought of another thing, "Speaking of which, where did the Basilisk and Nagini go? Aren't you worried that the Basilisk will cause damage to your place?"

"It's okay." Newt smiled and shook his head, "The basilisk is more intelligent than I thought. In this case, judging from the way he is so afraid of you, it can only be said that he is asking for trouble by causing havoc. .”

Soon, Newt finished feeding the little birds and snakes skillfully, and wiped his hands on a towel next to him.

"If you are worried, let's go see the Basilisk and Nagini now." He said to Dracula. "If nothing unexpected happens, they should go to the cave environment I arranged to make their home. Most snakes like it. Dark, warm, humid living environment.”

"But there are two rune snakes living there. I hope there won't be any conflicts between them."

The two of them walked to the other side of the jungle environment. At the end of the tall trees, they could see a dark cave.

With the vampire's excellent vision, Dracula easily discovered the basilisk's extraordinary size.

However, at the same time, there were three other snakes, no, another snake, staring at each other tensely with the basilisk.

This is an orange-yellow rune snake with black stripes all over its body and three snake heads.

Its size is quite large, almost as big as the Basilisk!

"Would a normal rune snake be this big?" Dracula turned to Newt and asked.

"The average rune snake is really not big, only six to seven feet in length." Newt explained, "But this one has been with me for decades, and I used some special breeding methods to breed it. This resulted in a big guy over thirty feet long.”

"But I think... instead of discussing the size of the rune snake, we should go to break up the fight now."
