Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 674: Newt and Elena (Part 1)

Uses debate as the end of the day, which cannot be considered a wonderful fulfillment anyway.

Newt Scamander was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at the little silver-haired witch sitting not far from him. He kept turning various thoughts in his mind, but compared with direct confrontation, he calmly communicated. After all, there are some benefits.

As for the opening sentence of the girl just now ...

"Well," Newt's mouth twitched, "Elena, I think we are still different."

"There is no difference," Elena shrugged. "It's just that you like raw, and I prefer to be familiar-just kidding, I'm not a hungry dragon at all times, why should you be so serious?"

Newt took a deep breath and swallowed the counter-argument that he almost jumped out.

As an old-school wizard born at the end of the nineteenth century, he really can't understand Elena's so-called jokes. Could it be said that in recent years, Dumbledore has dealt with this kind of little headache?

It's ... terrible! Fortunately, he has retired.

"OK." Newt replied sullenly, "Then you continue ..."

Newt Scamander crossed his fingers on his knees, a autistic expression appeared on his face.

He is well aware of his disadvantages in terms of tongue and tongue. Since he has determined that he is not Elena ’s opponent just after the confrontation, talk less and listen more, and be careful not to fall into the other party ’s language trap. .

And for Elena, this long-prepared speech has just begun.

"Mr. Scamander, in my opinion, there can be roughly divided into three forms of symbiotic relationship between living beings and living beings. The first one is the most common upper and lower relationship of the food chain, and it is also the simplest natural law. . "

Elena picked up a small cookie on the coffee table and put it in her mouth.

"Animal husbandry, hunting, these are the lowest survival creeds of all living beings. I do n’t think it ’s a strange behavior to like a certain kind of food, or like to eat beef or fish. For hundreds of thousands of years, human ancestors There are countless examples of domesticated cultivation of plants and animals that can obtain a stable source of food. "

"Yes," Newt said dryly. "So today, you have enough food to choose from."

"You are right, sporadic field hunting is indeed a backward and stupid act."

Elena nodded happily and raised her fingers seriously.

"It seems that we have reached the first consensus. If we intend to include an animal, of course, it may be a plant. In short, when we intend to incorporate it into our common food sequence, large-scale, systematic cultivation behavior must be It ’s a very necessary thing-in short, if you like to eat, then it ’s best to learn to raise. "

"Agree ... consensus? Wait! You may not understand what I mean."

Newt Scamander slightly froze for a moment, then immediately frowned quickly, Shen Sheng said.

"I think maybe I need to be more straightforward? Maybe the ancients really need to think about this, but in this era, food and meat are completely sufficient, and we have no need to domesticate and breed new animals. kind."

"Human society has reached full prosperity in food?"

Elena flicked her eyebrows, and there was a hint of teasing under her eyes.

"Unfortunately, that may be just what you think ... If you are interested in this issue, you can go to the former Soviet Union not far from the United Kingdom to visit and find out, this world seems to have a long way to go."

Some things, after all, words are more direct and shocking than witnessing them.

Rather than describing Newt Scamander ’s food shortage situation after the collapse of the Soviet Union in advance, it ’s better to allow the old wizard to take a look at it himself. According to Grindelwald ’s introduction, Newt should still be there. There are many friends.

"Eight-eyed giant spider, after artificial domestication, the scientific name is [Scottish fluffy soft shell crab]."

Elena raised her right hand and gently tapped her fingers, the wand hidden behind her quietly poked the air.

Immediately afterwards, a three-dimensional image of an adult eight-eye giant spider appeared in front of Newt's eyes.

"This is a magical animal that reproduces very fast. Not only its toxic glands have extremely high medicinal value. After artificial breeding and development research, I found that its eight long legs can provide quite rich and high-quality protein, just A small amount of [Scottish fluffy shell crab] spawning in the first quarter can maintain the minimum protein intake standard for nearly 1,000 people at Hogwarts. "

With Elena's voice, the image of the eight-eye giant spider was like a building block, splitting silently in the air, forming one part after another, as if it were a medical anatomy diagram in the non-magic world.

Before Newt could see clearly the division of tissues and fibers, I saw that the dark shell wrapped around the "muscle" of the eight-eyed giant spider gradually dissipated, and a few flames rose up, and the white flowers and transparent "crab" Wrapped in "leg meat" and reappeared in Newt's eyes a few seconds later, leaving only a plate of exquisite dishes.

"Eight-eyed giant spiders, they have certain wisdom."

"In the Middle Ages, like the three-headed dog and the lion-tail scorpion, they were all magical animals used by the wizards to protect their treasures. This is a dangerous creature that has reached a five-star rating in the Ministry of Magic.

Didn't pay attention to continue those dishes that looked fragrant and delicious, Newt took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice.

"You act so brazenly, Professor Dumbledore, you know?"

"Of course, you should be very clear? Whether it is a large-scale breeding in a forbidden forest, or the selection of ingredients for the three meals of the school-these obviously need to get Dumbledore's consent before they can continue. of."

Elena waved her hand gently, breaking up the image in the air, and answered easily.

"This……"

Newt Scamander's eyes twitched, his face dignified.

Hogwarts ... has it fallen? !

"Your expression is a bit ugly, Mr. Scamander ... Do you mean, are you pitying them?"

Elena glanced at the serious face of Newt Scamander and waved her wand carelessly.

"So, if this is the case? By the way, maybe you should look at this ..."

At the next moment, half of the entire living room was suddenly engulfed by twisted light, and instantly turned into a dark forest space. Newt felt as if he had returned to the depths of the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest in an instant.

It's just that what happened next doesn't look so beautiful.

And in the middle of the field created by the magic illusion, countless eight-eyed giant spiders crawled up from the treetops and the edge of the forest farm, and the black giant claws opened and closed, giving a creepy click. Sound-group hunting, this is a very typical way of group hunting of magical animals, a very obvious attack signal.

Newt's eyes gradually became serious, even if he knew that these were just illusions, he still subconsciously clenched the wand in his hand.

Snapped.

Not waiting for the first eight-eyed giant spider to take off, Elena snapped her fingers gently.

The entire Hogwarts Forbidden Forest once again dissipated into a ray of light and shadow, and the surrounding scene returned to the living room familiar to Newt Scamander. same.

This is ... Is Professor Dumbledore proficient in phantom magic?

Newt Scamander frowned. He was a little unsure, even if there was no three-headed dog to deal with Elena.

At the same time, the voice of the girl's unhurried explanation continued to sound in his ears.

"This is something I experienced in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest last semester. If it was n’t for my proper response and the professors arrived in time, I might have turned into spider food and disappeared forever in the Forbidden Forest. bingo--"

"As for the result, you must have known, I survived, and they became food for the Hogwarts wizards."

Elena's small cookie was just finished. The girl licked the debris from her fingertips and said calmly.

"If a magical creature with considerable intelligence is extremely aggressive and there is a human option in their main recipe, then unless they will never intersect with the human world, they will only face two results. , Surrender or extinction ... Obviously, Professor Dumbledore agrees with this view. "

"Therefore, before we communicate, there is a basic natural law that requires consensus."

Elena slowly lowered her wand, and the lake blue eyes looked at Newt Scamander, smiling and asked softly.

"As long as we are still wizards and living as human beings ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ then the rights of all magical animals cannot override human rights, nor be equal to human rights-human rights must be located The weight at the top. "

"If you disagree with this, then we may not need to continue the conversation ..."

"I am also a wizard, so of course I agree with this."

Newt Scamander carefully looked at the little witch in front of him, slowly sitting upright.

"However, this does not mean that I agree with your approach-human rights override the rights of all animals, but this is not the reason why wizards can unscrupulously kill magical animals and destroy natural ecology."

For the first time, Newt's eyes did not dodge beside him, but he just met Elena's eyes.

"Miss Caslana, you can't simply put all the magical animals into the category of" food ". This is an extremely irresponsible and childish behavior. If you insist on this, maybe we don't have much conversation. necessary."

"That is, of course, I said, I am not a hungry dragon who loses my senses."

Elena nodded gracefully and answered with a smile.
