Chapter 195 Heading to America
The research on the Obscurus ultimately came to nothing because Professor Scamander did not agree to unblock the Obscurus.
Obviously, more gains cannot be achieved by observing with the naked eye alone.
"I'm already old and don't have the strength to catch them anymore."
Professor Scamander waved his hand, his eyes a little complicated when he looked at the two Obscurans.
Adam could see that there were other reasons for Professor Scamander's refusal to study further, but that was beside the point.
Putting away the two copies of Obscurus, Adam followed the good path:
"How about we take a look at the bowtruckle that the professor mentioned last time?"
Professor Scamander is very satisfied with Adam's "let go" of the research on magical animals. He knows that if a person is too persistent in this regard, it is easy for a person to step from the research on the protection of magical animals to the illegal acquisition of magical animals.
Not to mention that what Adam wants to study is Obscurus...
Even if other magical animals are smuggled, they have to find a way and wait for an opportunity. The materials for Obscurus are available all over the world!
It was not until night that the academic exchange between Professor Scamander and Adam was violently interrupted. An old woman with silver hair broke into the suitcase and violently carried Professor Scamander out.
At the dinner table, Professor Scamander smiled awkwardly:
"This is my wife Tina, whom I introduced before."
"Mrs. Tina."
Adam bowed, and then his eyes stayed on the old lady's eyes for a moment.
Mrs. Tina was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but look at Professor Scamander.
Professor Scamander was a little confused and heard Adam say:
"As expected, as Professor Scamander said, you have eyes as beautiful as a salamander."
"..."
Professor Scamander's eyes widened, he opened his mouth, looked at Tina and shook his head hurriedly:
"I...I didn't!"
"Would anyone else say that besides you?"
Tina held her forehead, then looked at Adam with a smile:
"Thank you for the compliment."
Mr. Scamander and his wife and children have their own residence. Professor Scamander is not very talkative on matters other than magical beasts, so Adam and Lady Tina are mostly present at the dinner table. comminicate.
During this period, Adam and Lady Tina shared a lot of things that happened to Professor Scamander during his year at Hogwarts. Some of them were still fresh in Professor Scamander's mind, but some he really couldn't remember.
So much so that Professor Scamander, after a period of self-doubt, accepted that it was really him who said to Adam one day that Tina's eyes were like salamanders, but he later forgot about it.
After all... As Tina said, it seems that there is no other person in the world who would say such a thing.
Adam, who has written many stories now: Hehe~
Before heading to America, Adam spent two days traveling through Professor Scamander's suitcase, a treasure trove of magical animals.
Fantastic Beasts Collection +1+1+1…
"Professor Scamander, how did you arrange these spaces into different environments?"
As he spoke, Adam was wearing dragon skin gloves to help the Fire Ash Snake complete its molt. The surrounding temperature was obviously unusually high.
"Well, this involves the use of some magic..."
So in the next half day, Professor Scamander taught Adam a series of magic spells involving changing the celestial phenomena and temperature and humidity.
"Best be careful when using these spells."
After finishing the teaching, Professor Scamander couldn't help but sigh at Adam's learning speed, and he did not forget to remind:
"Usually, wizards use these spells to build magic greenhouses to cultivate magical animals and plants. Once the use of these magics in nature is found to be abnormal, it is illegal and will lead to Azkaban."
"I understand Professor, I will use it carefully."
Adam was analyzing those spells in his mind, many of which involved the four cards of Earth, Water, Wind and Fire, which might help him further master these four outrageously complex Clow cards.
As for light and dark...
Recalling those two magic circles that made his head feel swollen after looking at them too many times, Adam rubbed his brows and decided to take it one step at a time.
…
"I wish you both a pleasant journey in the United States~"
Handing the passport back, the staff member had a polite but distant smile on his face.
"It's really unimaginable that when we come here as scholars and students, we will still receive such...'hospitality'."
Adam looked at his fake identity and sighed.
"This is how people in this country are. Regardless of their status in the country, they always feel condescending to people from other countries. I don't like it either, so just don't worry about it."
Professor Scamander looked like he was used to it.
Adam nodded. After all, this was still an era when an American passport could travel around the world.
“Our first stop was Yellowstone, where there are lots of fun little guys.”
"Are there thunderbirds?"
"Well... it used to happen, but it was expelled by the Magical Congress of the United States of America on the grounds that it was easily discovered by Muggles. After all, it has been developed into a tourist attraction."
Professor Scamander sighed, then smiled and said to Adam:
"But at the second stop we can see those handsome little guys. Although there are no ptarmigans in Yellowstone Park, you will love it there, I swear."
How should I put it? Although I don't quite understand the cuteness of the Werewolf (a dog-headed creature that lives in the wetlands and cannot turn into a human), the White River Monster (a catfish-like creature with thorns on its back) and the Horned Beast (a frog-headed, dog-bodied creature with horns and fangs), the Silent Bird and the Cat-leopard really made Adam feel that the trip was worthwhile.
Especially the Cat-leopard.
"Hurululu——"
Looking at the large cat that exposed its belly and squinted its eyes and made a pleasant sound under Adam's touch, Professor Scamander was amazed:
"No matter how many times I see it, I have to sigh that Adam, you are really a natural magizoologist..."
Don't look at the Cat-leopard that looks very good in Adam's arms. In fact, it is also a dangerous level XXXXX, a terrifying creature at the same level as the Scorpion Tailed Beast and the Fire Dragon.
The appearance of the Cat-leopard is similar to that of the Jaguar, but it can walk upright. Its extremely fast speed and strong physical strength make it almost impossible to be killed. It is also said that their eyes have the ability to read minds and hypnotize.
Adam tried the former, and the cat-leopard can indeed stand and walk on its hind legs, but it is unlikely to run on two legs alone.
The latter is true. Adam can indeed feel a special magic in the eyes of the cat-leopard. The creatures that look at the cat-leopard will unconsciously fall into a trance and become the cat-leopard's meal.
Cute and cool, simply perfect.
While Adam controlled the cat-leopard, Professor Scamander also took the opportunity to conduct some simple observations and studies on the cat-leopard. Where was such a good opportunity before, and even let the cat-leopard cooperate?
"Come on, raise your hands... stretch out your claws... and then retract them... good job~"
For lunch, the two of them and the cat shared a two-meter-long White River monster, which was mainly eaten by the cat-leopard.
Not to mention, this thing not only looks like a catfish, but also tastes like it. It tastes great when roasted. It may be because of the thorns on its back, there are also many thorns in its body, and there are parasites, but these are not a problem in Adam's hands!
It's very fast! Adam cast a purification spell, and only the usable part of the White River Monster was left on the grill.
Finally, Professor Scamander finished his research with satisfaction, and the cat leopard also took away another roasted White River Monster with satisfaction.
"Okay, let's go to the next stop~"
