Capítulo 27: 27. Black Fog Fills The Sky
Grindelwald hurriedly returned to Second Salem.
Facing Credence, who could use the Fire Curse to its peak in the future, Grindelwald's eagerness for Obscurus was weakened a lot.
He went to Obscurus solely to deal with Dumbledore, whom he couldn't directly confront, knowing that Credence in the prophecy had the potential to target Dumbledore.
The only difference was that one had immediate combat abilities while the other needed to be cultivated.
"Credence!" Grindelwald appeared in Second Salem, but Aurelius had already left.
Grindelwald was faced with just a group of Muggle children.
"Where are Kevin and Credence?" Grindelwald asked Chastity, the oldest.
Chastity was extremely nervous, knowing that Grindelwald was not a kind person. Her throat was dry, making it impossible for her to speak, so she shook her head in response.
Grindelwald sensed that something was amiss and squinted his eyes.
He pulled Chastity closer and forced her to make eye contact with him.
Legilimency!
Chastity, being a Muggle, was defenseless against Grindelwald using Legilimency on her.
Memories of the past flashed through her mind in just a few seconds.
Grindelwald was furious!
He saw no mention of a child named Kevin in the Muggle girl's memories.
Credence had deceived him!
And he, the great Grindelwald, had been fooled!
What a disgrace!
Especially after hearing Credence's final words to Chastity, he became even more infuriated. The contempt and sarcasm in his bones made Grindelwald contemplate destroying New York.
"Hehehehe-hahahahahaha! Well done!" Grindelwald smiled charmingly.
He carefully scanned each child present.
Credence had lied to him. The Obscurial was not a child named Kevin, and Kevin didn't exist.
Therefore, the Obscurial must still be here!
Losing his patience, Grindelwald roughly planned to search through the memories of every child present, unaware that the Obscurus had no memory when it became uncontrollable.
Based on the storyline and the two rampages, Aurelius himself had deduced this.
"Legilimency—"
Grindelwald cursed!
This was so rare!
This renowned wizard, who had made spell casting almost instinctual, now needed to recite a spell.
This meant that the type of legitimacy Grindelwald intended to use was unprecedented. He would have to read the memories of multiple orphans simultaneously.
However, when he was halfway through the incantation, there was a scream from the sky, and black fog enveloped all of New York as if the city had been transported to London in an instant!
"The Obscurial!" Grindelwald was stunned.
As early as the summer of 1899, he had witnessed this familiar black fog and only then discovered the tremendous power of the Obscurus.
But could the Obscurus truly be this terrifying?! Heavy fog filled all of New York?!
Grindelwald caught his breath as he watched the black mist slowly swirling, resembling a hurricane. He turned his gaze to the frightened orphans and disappeared in an instant.
No need to search, the Obscurus is in the sky.
...
"Why do I have to wear this?" Jacob questioned, tapping on the helmet that appeared to be made of vines.
"Because your skull could easily crack upon impact!" Newt hurried over and glanced back before explaining.
Jacob felt a jolt of panic. What? A cracked skull?!
Phew!
A terrified Shire horse raced wildly through the streets. As a native draft horse from England and the largest breed in the world, it looked monstrous up close!
Now, even the largest horse in the world was as frightened as a rabbit, unintentionally colliding with two pedestrians while galloping in a frenzy.
So, what scared it so much?
Boom!
The colossal Horned Serpent trampled and demolished houses along the roadside. Its enormous horn grew nearly the length of its entire body, resembling a hill, and was covered in thick, sturdy armor similar to that of a rhinoceros.
Gulu... Jacob stood in shock.
"Oops! It happens to be the mating season for the Horned Serpent. She needs a companion," Newt hastily extracted a small bottle of liquid, uncapped it, and applied a little to each wrist.
"What is that?" Tina inquired.
"It's the musk of the Horned Serpent, a secretion that drives female Horned Serpent into a frenzy. Please keep an eye on her for me," Newt explained, handing the box to Tina before heading off alone.
Then...
Eye-catching!
"What is he doing?!" Tina furrowed her brow, a puzzled expression on her face.
Jacob shook his head. Wizards like Tina didn't understand, and as a No-Maj, he didn't understand either.
"Is it... a courtship dance?" Queenie hesitated. Newt may be peculiar and introverted, but he was undeniably a talented wizard. He didn't want to draw any conclusions, and Queenie wasn't one to pry into his thoughts.
"Ah, is this... effective?" Tina wanted to trust in Newt's expertise and grace, but this seemed too hard to believe.
The Horned Serpent is a magical creature native to North America. It is classified as XXXX in the Ministry of Magic's animal classification system, putting it in the same category as birds and snakes.
However, here lies the problem. The Ministry of Magic only has five classification levels, which are insufficient to evaluate all magical creatures.
On the same level, the Poison Horned Beast is nearly impervious to most spells due to its hill-shaped body and armored skin as tough as iron.
Its massive horn is exceptionally sturdy and can pierce through most objects, including walls, shields, and even human bodies. In addition to its piercing ability, the horn injects a deadly venom upon penetration, which explains its name, the poison horn. This venom possesses incredible power, capable of causing explosions.
Although the Horned Serpent is an herbivorous creature, resembling the invisible beast, it exhibits an extremely aggressive nature, particularly during the estrus period. Many male poison-horned beasts are killed by their kind, resulting in them exploding into a pulpy mess.
In terms of danger, the male Horned Serpent in Estrus is unparalleled, surpassing many magical creatures of XXXXX-level rating.
This creature is a formidable monster.
Out of all the magical animals that have wreaked havoc in New York City, the horned beast has caused the most extensive damage.
Newt felt nervous, but he also felt a sense of gratitude.
Thankfully, the one that escaped was a female Horned Serpent. Had it been a male...
"Come on, baby...come on!" Newt observed the box Tina had opened and cautiously moved towards it. He aimed to entice the Horned Serpent beast back into the box before the Auror caught up with him.
Despite its size, the Horned Serpent Beast possesses a sleek build that allows it to outrun nearly everyone, except those who can apparate. However, its speed is limited, leaving him with little time.
Newt had noticed white scratches on the Horned Serpent's body – evidence of being struck by a spell. Truth be told, most spells only managed to have this effect.
"Hurry!"
Gah!
The sky became enveloped in a dense black fog!
The scream jolted the Horned Serpent awake!
