Chapter 103 Dance of the Scorpion Tailed Beast

"Yes... that's right... twist it up!"

"Professor Scamander, I don't mean to question you, but..."

After raising their hands and twisting their butts in place for a few minutes, one student finally couldn't help it anymore:

"Can dancing like this really make the manticores think that we are their kind and thus let down their guard against us?"

It was obvious that this was another Ravenclaw, but this time, perhaps because of his wording or because other students had similar thoughts, he did not arouse everyone's hostility.

"Of course, look at me."

Professor Scamander took out the cage that had just been covered with cloth again and lifted the cloth. The manticore inside saw the sunlight again and waved its pincers with some discomfort.

Professor Scamander put down the cage, raised his hands, and assumed the posture he taught the students just now. Then the students saw the manticore also raise its pincers, and as Professor Scamander danced, A manticore also swayed from side to side.

"It actually works..."

The Ravenclaw was speechless. Well, he shouldn't doubt Professor Scamander, but...

"But why doesn't Adam have to learn this dance!"

"Good question!"

Professor Scamander clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and then waved to Adam:

"Come here, Adam."

Adam walked to the front of the cage and stretched out his hand towards the manticore in the cage.

Just when everyone couldn't help but exclaim, the manticore not only did not attack, but instead took a few steps back, then hesitated, stepped forward again, stretched out its pliers and placed it on Adam's index finger.

"Have you seen it? I have to say that there are people in this world who have talents beyond ordinary people's imagination. For example, they are more popular with magical animals than others."

Professor Scamander sighed, he couldn't help but feel envious when he said this.

"I think it is more likely that it saw the ghosts of the same kind who were fried and fried around Adam, and it did not dare to attack Adam."

Although he didn't know why Adam was so popular with magical beasts, Colon couldn't help but murmured something, and then couldn't help swallowing.

How to put it... They are both arthropods. Compared with the Acromantula manticore, the meat is tighter and has lower fat content. It is not as rich in body but better in taste.

The most important thing is that the adult body of the Manticore is much larger than the Acromantula, and it has more legs than the Acromantula, and it also has pincers!

Seeing with their own eyes that Adam did not need to learn this knowledge, the little wizards could only suppress the complicated emotions in their hearts, raised their hands and swung their buttocks and began to practice dancing. Fortunately, everyone around them danced together, which somewhat alleviated the embarrassment.

The manticore dance is not too difficult. The main thing is to grasp the angle and frequency of the hip shaking. After Professor Scamander taught it for a while, there was no need to stare any more. Taking this opportunity, Adam approached and asked:

"Professor Scamander, how are you studying the creature I showed you before?"

Adam was talking about the jackal head brought back from Egypt. Adam was really curious about what it was. If he didn't have some conscience in his heart, Adam would just use a double card to copy an anatomy and have a look.

"Uh, good question!"

Recalling that strange creature, Newt couldn't help but frown:

"From the appearance, it, or he, obviously has a lot of similarities with humans... Oh, thank you."

Taking the brown sugar milk from Adam, Professor Scamander took a spoonful of it with a wooden spoon and put it into his mouth. The hot milk mixed with brown sugar and pearls made people happy:

"Being able to speak Egyptian proficiently shows that he has intelligence comparable to that of humans. Therefore, after preliminary analysis, I think he is somewhat like a werewolf-like creature unique to Egypt."

"Werewolf-like creature..."

Adam frowned:

"So if you are bitten by him, you will turn into a dog head...ahem, a jackal head?"

There are many schools of thought about the birth of werewolves. The werewolves in this world are humans infected with a magical disease called lycanthropy. They will be infected if bitten. The magic of the full moon will make the werewolves go crazy...

The information about werewolves came to mind, and Adam questioned again:

"But it has never gone crazy during a full moon, and...according to what he said, he has existed for thousands of years."

"No, he's not contagious."

Professor Scamander raised his spoon to emphasize, then lowered his head and took a sip:

"The reason why I use werewolf to describe him is because like werewolves, he is not naturally formed. He may be infected by some kind of magical disease, or he may be affected by some kind of magic... I once saw a person under the influence of magic. He completely turned into a snake."

Professor Scamander thought for a while after speaking:

"As for existing for thousands of years... this is absolutely impossible. As long as any creature exists in the world, time will leave traces on it, even the previous basilisk that has been dormant for thousands of years is the same. According to my knowledge of that creature Observation, and what you said about his living environment, his lifespan is more than a hundred years, but not more than five hundred years."

"No more than five hundred years...this is interesting."

Adam narrowed his eyes. Was it a slip of the tongue? Or did you misjudge the time in the dark? Adam didn't think it was such a simple reason.

"As for that creature, I think more in-depth research can be conducted. In addition, there is the basilisk."

Professor Scamander was obviously a little reluctant to finish the research that had just been hastily completed. A few days of observation could not satisfy his curiosity.

Of course, he was embarrassed to take advantage of his student and junior all the time:

"You are very interested in magical animals, right? Do you want to come to my house this holiday? I have many friends I want to introduce to you."

"Of course, it's my honor, professor, but I have already made plans for this year's holiday. I don't know how long it will take..."

Adam still trusts Newt's connections in the field of magical animals... animal connections? It's a pity that he has to go to China next summer vacation and it's unknown how long it will take to come back.

"It doesn't matter. We can contact each other using the portraits when the time comes."

Scamander was not so anxious. With his strength, he could live many more years if nothing unexpected happened.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was time to end the get out of class. Before the get out of class ended, Professor Scamander reminded:

"Everyone, practice well after you go back. We will test it in the next class - dance this dance to get close to the Scorpion Tailed Beast Cub."

"Wait - what if we are attacked?"

"Don't worry, I will communicate with Professor Snape and bring enough white fresh essence."

Professor Scamander smiled comfortingly, but the firmness in his words clearly revealed that he did not intend to change his mind:

"The Scorpion Tailed Beast Dance is not difficult. My brother could get started quickly even if he danced like me for the first time. If you are still attacked after practicing for a week - the wound caused by a Scorpion Tailed Beast Cub is very small, it can be regarded as a lesson for you who don't study seriously."

Professor Scamander's eyes moved over each young wizard:

"The Care of Magical Creatures course is a course that requires great dedication. When you really practice, you are dealing with lives. I hope you can all take this course seriously."

After the get out of class, Adam was greeted by four pounces before he could even speak.

"Ouch!"

Four people were lying on top of Adam who was thrown to the ground. It was obvious that they had a plan.

"Ahhh, you cheated!"

Cologne was on top because he was small, and he shouted angrily:

"I don't care! You have to dance that dance too!"

"That's right!"

Bernard was also a little uncomfortable under the pressure, but it was not a big problem.

"You have to dance too!"

Although the other people said something different, it was roughly the same meaning.

"Okay, okay, I get it, I'll dance, you guys get up quickly!"

Adam, who was holding a shield, patted the body above him helplessly. In order to prevent the weight of the four people from really hurting Adam, Eugene and Uther secretly used their arms to support the ground and reduce some of the strength.

"Don't crush Eugene and Uther!"
