Hogwarts: Who taught you to transform like this?

Merlin was also a little strange.

Although the Bowtruckle is a two-star magical animal with a peaceful and docile personality.

But when they feel a crisis or someone wants to cut down a tree to make a wand, they will become violent.

The book records that they will dig people's eyes with their claws and bite people.

The strength of one may not be a big deal.

But there are many Bowtruckles.

There are often dozens or even hundreds of them on a tree.

It is also terrible when they pounce and attack from all angles at the same time, even some inexperienced Aurors will be unable to defend themselves.

Originally, Merlin was ready to use his language proficiency talent to listen to what these Bowtruckles are saying.

But unexpectedly, the Bowtruckles didn't care about his appearance at all.

This is completely unreasonable.

"Merlin, tell me honestly, what have you done? How many Bowtruckles have you saved?"

"I have never seen a Bowtruckle so close without alarming it." The Sorting Hat grabbed his head and kept muttering.

"No, I haven't come into contact with a Bowtruckle before... Wait, I might know!" Merlin suddenly thought of something. He had indeed come into contact with a Bowtruckle before. But it was in Ollivander's wand shop. He had used Nature Summoning once when testing his wand. The Bowtruckles that came out were sorting out their wands, and it seemed that one of them paid special attention to him. Professor McGonagall and Ollivander were shocked and speechless at the time. Later, he learned that the Nature Summoning was a spell developed by ancient wizards who believed in the natural religion. After using this spell, you will permanently gain the favor of the magical animal you summoned. And the one he summoned happened to be a Bowtruckle. "Maybe for this reason, the Bowtruckles won't attack me.

The Sorting Hat's entire hat became stiff.

No, how could someone be so fresh and refined, pretending to be cool and innocent?

Damn it!

Mo Lin ignored the Sorting Hat's envy and began to check the guardian tree in front of him.

According to the Sorting Hat.

This guardian tree may have existed for more than a thousand years, and it is an absolute treasure among the guardian trees.

Whether it is used to make a wand or to make magic pattern paper with bark, it is the best material.

Although I came to follow the Sorting Hat to find the Dragon's Nest.

But I naturally can't miss this kind of precious magic material.

After all, Galleon is power!

But how can I persuade those Bowtruckles to allow me to collect some?

"Mo Lin, it's important!"

The Sorting Hat urged excitedly.

"I have sensed the location of the Dragon's Nest treasure, look for this first!"

"Maybe, it's a bit bad. "

Merlin looked around and pointed to a place with the most hunchbacks.

"The entrance to the dragon's nest should have collapsed, and it seems to have become a place where hunchbacks gather."

"Merlin's pants! How could this happen!"

The Sorting Hat stretched out the tip of the hat, and the wrinkles at the eye sockets were completely flattened, staring fiercely at the sunken pit in front of it.

For a long while, the brim of the hat curled up, and the tip of the hat lowered to hide the wailing.

He also knew that Merlin had only gained the favor of the hunchbacks.

He would not be attacked if he appeared here.

But if he really went to the place where the hunchbacks lived, he would still be beaten.

"Forget it, wait until you are stronger, and then see what to do.

The Sorting Hat was reluctant, but still did not force Merlin to go again.

"Wait, maybe I can try to ask."

Merlin thought for a while, and looked at a little hunchback lying lazily on the treetop to bask in the moonlight.

The two green leaves on the top of the head were separated to the left and right, and the limbs were still thin branches and tender buds, and the two sesame-sized eyes seemed to be yawning.

"Hello, little guy, can I ask your leader something?"

Merlin took out a dried earthworm and handed it to it.

"Wow!"

The little bowtruckle exclaimed excitedly, grabbed the balled earthworm and bit it hard, chewing it with relish like eating watermelon.

"Oh, it tastes unimaginable."

The Sorting Hat looked complicated.

"You can imagine it as Dumbledore eating a pile of cockroaches, the same.

"Ugh!"

The Sorting Hat retched.

"Merlin, that's enough, you really can't say that anymore, I will have a psychological shadow."

"Okay. "

Molin curled his lips.

He stopped teasing the Sorting Hat and quietly watched the little Bowtruckle eat the earthworm.

Very quickly.

The little Bowtruckle clapped his hands, finished eating a whole watermelon worm, looked at Lin and nodded.

It made a strange sound.

"Hmm, ahh ... "

The Sorting Hat couldn't get any more questions out of him, so it just snorted and stopped talking, quietly watching Mo Lin and the Bowtruckle communicate.

The Bowtruckle, who had eaten a lot of dirt, patted his belly, jumped off the tree, and climbed onto Mo Lin's shoulder in three or two steps, chirping and asking him to go to the gathering place of the Bowtruckles.

Mo Lin was curious about what it was going to do, so he followed it to check the situation.

Unexpectedly, the little Bowtruckle pointed at him and screamed when he entered.

The Bowtruckles around him all opened their eyes wide, waved their arms, and then welcomed Mo Lin's arrival.

Mo Lin understood what they said, and the corners of his mouth twitched with a little bit of admiration.

The little Bowtruckle actually told them that he was the messenger of the forest and came to give them earthworms to eat.

Tit......

Thinking about the current situation.

For the little Bowtruckle, it was a great honor to meet someone who was dozens of times bigger than him, who not only understood what they were saying, but also gave them food.

It was indeed similar to the God of Nature.

However, the little guy in front of him was really amazing to be able to fool this group of Bowtruckles in front of him.

Anyway, earthworms are not valuable things.

There are tens of thousands of them in stock in Mo Lin's space.

If the Bowtruckle likes it...

Mo Lin waved his hand casually and cast a floating spell.

Thousands of earthworms appeared in the whole cave and flew towards each Bowtruckle.

For a while, the whole cave was filled with the sound of "chi chi chi, chi chi chi".

The little Bowtruckle who brought Mo Lin here kept calling.

Soon.

A huge Bowtruckle came down from the guardian tree.

It was more than one meter tall, and the bark on its body was hard and strong, protecting itself firmly.

When it saw Merlin, it was not as surprised as others, and even greeted him.

"Little human wizard, you saved me!"

"????"

The Sorting Hat opened its eyes wide, and the whole hat grabbed Merlin's head in shock.

"Merlin's beard, you can actually talk!"

The Bowtruckle blinked, noticed the hat on Merlin's head, thought about it and suddenly realized.

"Oh? It's you, Gryffindor's hat."

"Why have you become like this?"

The Bowtruckle asked curiously.

"You... know me?"

The Sorting Hat opened its eyes wide, and couldn't believe that it could meet an old acquaintance here...

........***..........

No.

It's not a human, and it's not familiar.

Never mind, it doesn't matter!

The Sorting Hat shook its head, and the brim of the hat shook as if to say hello.

"But I didn't remember you, sorry."

"It's okay."

The Bowtruckle waved his hand and pointed at the little Bowtruckle with emotion.

"I was only as big as it at that time, and I didn't know you. I just often saw four wizards coming here from the tree to find fire dragons and try to tame them.

"But they failed every time, and I remembered their names every time they came. "

"It seems that they also built a school here, and a man named Ollivander often came to ask me to make a wand with branches.

"But his appearance changes every once in a while. Human wizards are really strange creatures.

......

Merlin and the Sorting Hat were silent at the same time.

It's just that Merlin was shocked that Hogwarts was indeed full of hidden talents.

You can meet a Bowtruckle that has lived for more than a thousand years in the Forbidden Forest.

And the Sorting Hat was confused.

He always thought that he was the oldest being in the whole Hogwarts.

Unexpectedly, he changed again and again since he met Merlin.

.....0...

First it was Slytherin's idea, then Gryffindor's magic puppet, and now there is a Bowtruckle that has lived longer than the Big Four.

The Sorting Hat even suspected that if he followed Merlin for a while, the untamed fire dragon would reappear.

For a while, I was a little depressed.

I will become more and more useless like this.

What if Merlin doesn't give me a renovation?

"It's not impossible."

Merlin nodded.

"What?"

The Sorting Hat was dumbfounded.

Is it really useless?

"I mean, maybe I can really find that dragon later. ”

“If I have time, I can ask Gryffindor again. Maybe after knowing the name, I can really………………”

“Not bad! I knew you, Merlin, wouldn’t think I’m useless.”

The Sorting Hat shouted proudly.

Merlin rolled his eyes.

“Do I need to repeat this fact?”

After saying that, he suddenly thought of something.

“Hey, that’s not right.”

It’s obvious that the Bowtruckle in front of me has lived for more than a thousand years, and it’s still not asleep, and its memory is complete.

Why do I have to go to Gryffindor? Wouldn’t it be better to just ask this Bowtruckle directly?

“The name of the fire dragon?”

The Bowtruckle blinked and scratched the bark on his body.

“I really need to think about this. It’s been too long. How did they shout the name of this dragon slayer at that time?”

“Oh, hat, do you remember?”

The Bowtruckle looked at the Sorting Hat.

The Sorting Hat pouted, feeling a little guilty.

“I didn’t have such a good memory at that time, I don’t have an impression, otherwise I would have said it earlier.

The Bowtruckle shook his wrist, his eyes were a little scattered.

"I remember, they always seem to call a very friendly name."

"It seems to be Leorea?"

"???"

Merlin almost choked.

What a strange name for this fire dragon, does it have breath attacks, ramming attacks, and rolling attacks, and will it run away if it can't be defeated?

"Not really, the dragon's nest is here, and she seems unable to escape."

"But it seems that the first few attack methods are all there."

Okay.

Merlin imagined the scene of the four giants holding wands and playing monster hunter with fire dragons, and it was really a bit overwhelming.

"What happened next?"

He remembered that Dumbledore said that the four giants did not tame the fire dragon, and there was no news of killing dragons later.

This Bowtruckle should know about it?
