章節 318: Chapter 318 Dragon and Contract Transfer

"Dragons won't always be seen at our camp; they have a strong sense of territory." Charlie explained, "But we'll take the injured dragon back to camp for treatment."

Felix followed him to a fenced enclosure behind the camp, where seven or eight dragons, bound in shackles made of fireproof material, shrugged their heads restlessly when they saw someone approaching, and one black dragon with an injured leg peered at them with half-squinting eyes.

"This is Hungarian Horntail, very dangerous, we deployed twelve men to capture it, and its flame breathe could reach to about fifty feet - we'd better stay away from it." Charlie said, "I've seen it breathing flame over forty feet away."

Felix's eyes skimmed over the black scales of the giant dragon. The dragon looked like a lizard with bat wings attached. Sharp ridges grew from its skull, like pikes, all the way to its tail end. But whether it is the bronze horns, the rows of spikes on its back, or the hooked and powerful claws, all indicate that this creature is not to be messed with, and even the ends of its wings are sharp with curved hooks.

It is the largest among the dragons, even twice the size of the smallest one, the other dragons are afraid of it, leaving empty space around it.

After looking at it for a while, Felix opened his mouth and asked: "If there is no accident, the first game of the competition would be a dragon, do you guys have made some arrangements?"

Charlie thought about it and said seriously, "We have prepared five kinds of dragons, for five schools, namely Common Welsh Green, Norwegian Ridgeback, Antipodean Opaleye, Swedish Short-Snout, and Chinese Fireball."

" Only these five?"

"All you want are female dragons that Incubating and Hatching Eggs, which is not easy to find, and I don't understand why ..."

Felix guessed, "Maybe to let the champions take the eggs from the mother dragons?"

Charlie said with some unease, "Don't joke about it, they are already dangerous, the mother dragon that is incubating eggs is a few levels more dangerous, see the scar on my arm? It's from a mother dragon who was raising her cubs."

"We ruled out the particularly dangerous Peruvian Vipertooth and a giant Hungarian Horntail for this reason; the former had highly poisonous fangs, while the latter is recognized as the most dangerous type of Dragon."

Felix nodded: "Perhaps it is only necessary to pass by the dragons."

Near evening, Felix and Charlie discussed the details of the resettlement of the dragons in the tent, "Hogwarts can open up a field in the forbidden forest, the kitchen will provide food, but we don't really know the habits of the dragons, we need you to send someone to take care of them."

"That's not a problem, we already intended to do so." Charlie said readily. "When transporting over long distances, we will send more people to ensure the safety."

" A team led by you?"

"I'll try to earn it, it's a rare event."

"Charlie," a male wizard walked in from outside the tent, the middle-aged captain he had once met, "I heard that the young professor wants to stay a few more days, there's an agreement he needs to sign for that."

He froze for a moment when he saw Felix: "You're here too, just in time, this is for you."

Felix took it and said with some surprise, "A confidentiality pact?"

"Yes, to be fair," the male wizard shrugged, "even though it has always been a tradition to cheat in contests, at least the surface work has to be done," he gave a meaningful look, "our minister asked for it. "

Felix carefully examined the contents, "The content is okay, except not to reveal the details of the Dragon -" Felix brushed the parchment, feeling the magic left on it, "This contract seems to be kind of surveillance type?"

The middle-aged male wizard explained, "The Ministry of Magic provided it, we just complied with it, and from what they said, when the signer of the contract mentions dragon or similar words, they will get the message on that side."

Felix didn't say anything more and quickly signed his name. Although he had no intention of following the rules set by the Ministry of Magic, there is no need to make things difficult for these people.

Charlie looked relieved, he hadn't even faced the dragon with such trepidation, fortunately, Felix agreed.

At night, the camp raised a torch, the black shadows of the hills and trees were stretched out, Felix stayed in his tent, and the night passed without a hitch. In the early morning, he stepped in the dew of the forest and appeared in the field behind the camp.

The Hungarian Horntail with the injured leg noticed him first, and it snorted agitatedly as it let out a low growl. A short distance away, a Common Welsh Green glanced up, then lowered its head and went back to sleep.

"Quiet."

Felix said, his eyes turning silvery white, and the Hungarian Horntail angrily braced itself, its yellow eyes staring malevolently at him, followed by a trance in its vision, and it shook its head, not noticing anything unusual except that the wizard had got closer.

But unknowingly, it had been pulled by Felix into the world of thinking, and unlike other scenarios that were applied, this time he had imitated an environment exactly like the outside world and seamlessly blended the two.

The Dragon was oblivious to all this, and its nose began to emit sparks, a sign of warning, signalling that it would soon attack. But the wizard already came close enough as he tilted his head to measure its metal-like claws.

"Boom!"

The Hungarian Horntail spewed out a thick, raging blaze that hit Felix square in the face, and he melted away without any resistance, the dragon then snorted and lowered its head with satisfaction.

The next second, however, it found Felix appeared in the same place as if he had never moved.

Its intelligence is not high enough for it to understand this behaviour at all, it just became even angrier and opened its mouth to spew another ball of flame, this time more fierce and lasting for some time, the Hungarian Horntail was sure that the arrogant wizard had burned to ashes, it even saw a scattering black dust.

But in the blink of an eye, Felix stood unharmed in front of it and even touched its claws with his hand.

"Swish!"

The sharp claws with an icy sheen cut through Felix's body, cutting him into several pieces, "Well, this is too bloody." Felix said, flicking away the dragon's claws like it is nothing.

For a moment, Felix is sure he saw bewilderment in the Hungarian Horntail's eyes, even though it was always the one attacking, it became clear that it had run into something unfathomable.

"Stay put, I'm trying to figure out how to transfer the pact to you ..." Felix leaned down and tapped his fingers on the black scales on its body, "It's fun to try, isn't it? "

Unlike the unbreakable vow which he couldn't do much, the Ministry of Magic's pact could be evaded, which is why he signed his name with gusto.

The Ministry of Magic's pact is valid based on some keywords, but the problem is that he doesn't know if there is any hidden content, which creates a great deal of uncertainty. He would be shuttling around Nicolas Flamel's hideout for most of the summer, and he didn't want to expose those places yet, in addition to the fact that some of his planned trips were sensitive enough, like the black market, like the Beauxbatons School of Magic.

An interesting fact is that, according to the relationship, he is actually closer to Beauxbatons, because he is a board member of this school.

To be on the safe side, he decided to transfer the pact away. He thought about finding a random deer, or a rabbit or whatever instead, but that would definitely encounter some difficulty, in case the rabbit got eaten, his status on the Ministry of Magic side would be marked as dead.

Fortunately, the last thing the Dragon Sanctuary is missing is a dragon. And his target is this rather fierce Hungarian Horntail.

The dragon in front of him still attacked in vain, spitting fire, swinging its claws, flicking its tail, and biting, but Felix always recovered the next second as if he had been turning back time, and in just a few minutes, Felix had been exposed to hundreds of deadly attacks.

By the end, the fierce Hungarian Horntail looked at him out of breath; there was nothing more it could do, and the dragon hung its head in frustration and slumped to the ground, its nostrils spewing out a stream of hot air.

" Please roll over." Felix said to it.

The Hungarian Horntail stared at him with its yellow vertical pupils for a long moment, and then it slowly exposed its belly, and as it turned, its eyes fluttered and its vision seemed to change slightly. But the terrible and clingy wizard is still there, and he is poking it with his wand, urging it to hurry up.

Then Felix trailed along the black scales on its body with his wand and made his way up to stand on top of it.

"Nice scales under the neck, the magic gleam is strong enough."

...

Charlie emerged from the tent, unable to find Felix, so he subconsciously made his way to the enclosure at the back of the camp and got startled by the sight of the vicious Hungarian Horntail lazily opening its mouth and spewing a small, thin flame out of its throat for roasting meat.

"Hold your breath, there's another coat of oil needed to be applied." Felix patted its probing maw and flipped the roast on the grill, "I have a secret sauce, do you want to try?"

The Hungarian Horntail nodded hastily.

章節 319: Chapter 319 Niffler Valen

When Felix extended the invitation to Charlie, the adventurous part of Charlie's personality kicked in, and he happily accepted the offer almost without much thought.

"You're more shameless than Norbert, you know that?" Charlie reached out his rough hand and patted the spikes on the Hungarian horntail's head, and the dragon rolled its eyes, ignoring his accusation.

Charlie began to take over Felix's work, brushing the sauce up in layers, "Judging from my experience, brushing it in one direction-"

"Will it be more flavourful?" Felix asked.

"No, it will look better." Charlie laughed, "It's like melted amber. Well-"

The two cut out a tenth of the roast, and the rest all went into the Hungarian horntail's belly, "Accio fruit wine from Charlie's tent!" Charlie shouted, and two jugs flew over like cannonballs as he told Felix, "We make our own wine from local fruit that you can't get anywhere else."

Felix narrated some interesting stories from school, especially when mentioning Hagrid and Ron, Charlie opened up more and let out a hearty laugh from time to time, he said with great interest, "I was close to Hagrid when I was in school because we were both interested in dragons, he always said he wanted to raise a dragon, and he ended up doing it the first year after I left."

"The Norbert you just mentioned?"

" Well, a Norwegian Ridgeback that's less than three years old, which we've just released back into the wild." Charlie grinned, "These dragons grow fastest in their first few months of life, and the hatchlings develop their fire-breathing abilities relatively early, so Hagrid quickly realized that keeping it was a tricky mess, so he asked me to take Norbert with me."

"Norbert and we got acquainted, he often came to beg for food, after eating he will run away." Charlie said, "We wondered if it would bring its own children with it later."

"It also often steals the brandy from the camp, which is the captain's favourite, the captain will speak like he's reluctant, but in fact, he secretly relaxes the security, you know we have an alarm."

Felix said, "Brandy? It wouldn't be Hagrid--"

"That's right, Hagrid is the bad example." Charlie chuckled softly, "I guess he read some book with a biased recipe and thought brandy would increase its fire-breathing ability."

...

Felix spent two more days at the Dragon Reserve, and on the day of his departure, he finally met the camp's particularly famous Norwegian Ridgeback dragon, Norbert, which is only 12 or 13 foot tall and looks much smaller compared to the adult dragon.

The Norwegian Ridgeback is somewhat similar to the Hungarian Horntail as both have lizard-like bodies with broad wings, and their tails are sharp. The young dragon in front of him, named Norbert, has a white snout, bulging orange eyes, and black, spiky wings that flap constantly.

The camp prepared a sheep and a barrel of brandy for it, and the dark brown-skinned captain watched with a pained expression as Norbert drank up the brandy, then burped loudly and spewed out a few sparkling sparks.

Then Norbert grunted twice cheerfully towards the crowd, grabbed the sheep, and flew away.

"Crafty fellow." The middle-aged captain muttered.

Felix also duly offered his farewell, as he directly used apparition, in the following week, he focused on spending some time to visit some friends, some of them were scheduled in advance, such as the Longbottoms, and some were without a formal appointment, such as Newt Scamander.

When he returned from Newt's house, Felix carried an extra little one, a Niffler cub.

Newt had planned to release these magical creatures on a regular basis, and at the time Felix came over, it just so happened that among the creatures Newt was going to release, there were those three Niffler he had seen when he was at the Ministry of Magic, namely Valen, Sal, and Thorpe.

"I suggest you pick just one, their destructive power will multiply with their numbers." Newt said.

"Just Valen, I remember her scolding me." Felix said.

Niffler, which was excitedly grabbing the shiny gold coins from its two brothers with its butt facing him, froze in place when she heard Felix's words.

Newt and Felix seemed to hear the sound of necks rattling and turning, and Niffler Valen looked at them with an innocent face.

"Mr. Hap ..."

"I'm kidding, I'll take good care of her."

Newt shook his head and watched as Felix tricking the Niffler away with a pearl necklace that he had morphed from a quill, and he wondered if he had made the right choice.

Still, he took out a silver pocket watch and handed it to Felix: "You've seen it in the Ministry of Magic, it pops open gently when you turn it on, it's about the size of a classroom, Valen will like it."

...

At this time, Felix is reading in one of Nicolas Flamel's secret hiding places, with Niffler Valen lying on her back on the carpet, her little tiny hand constantly scratching and tugging, trying to stuff the shiny rune in front of her into her pocket.

Almost a week passed, and he found a pattern to deal with this little fellow, casting firm enchantment around the house and then releasing the runes from the thinking room for her to play with.

He also produced a finely crafted dreamscape - a gold mountain of Galleon, stored in his Second Class Order of Merlin badge, now it's one of the Niffler Valen's treasures, the other treasure being a scrapped time-turner.

It was previously hidden in an ancient box, also found by Niffler Valen, and a note specifically left inside with instructions from Nicolas Flamel about its origins.

The completely damaged time-turner had been acquired by Nicolas Flamel three hundred years ago at great expense, and was said to have come from a stolen item seized by the British Ministry of Magic; its previous owner had used it incorrectly and ended up trapping herself in the time gap where no one could find her, causing her to be literally starved to death.

She wrote down what happened with her own blood, which was later discovered by the Ministry of Magic, and this time-turner was confiscated by the Ministry as well, only to be somehow passed around and be bought by Nicolas Flamel.

He conducted a lot of research on this time-turner and tried to repair it, but in the end, it did not succeed, only thick information about time left behind.

Felix tried repeatedly without being convinced and found that it was indeed damaged and was currently just an hourglass-like craft ornament, so it ended up as one of Niffler Valen's collections.

Monday, July 16th.

The sky is cloudy and Felix is dressed in black formal wear, the emerald ring on his left hand and the Ring of the Ouroboros Snake on his right hand have been removed and placed in his pocket, while the Niffler has been tucked into a silver pocket watch and kept close to his body.

Today is the day of Sirius' brother Regulus' funeral, Felix tidied up properly and came out from his house.

The sky began to drizzle, Felix covered with a humanoid shield charm as he made his way to the funeral site, where a number of people had already arrived, also wearing black robes or formal wear, in the middle of a pile of adults, several small children stood out - red-haired Ron Weasley, black-haired Harry Potter, and platinum blonde hair Draco Malfoy.

He also saw a number of familiar faces, Tonks, Barty Crouch, the Malfoys, the Longbottoms, Neville's grandmother, and so on.

There were also a number of people sitting together, and when Felix came over, they had an uneasy look on their faces.

Felix gave a smile as he saw the face of Lord Parkinson, who flushed with a purplish-red colour that seemed particularly looked odd on his face.

"All familiar faces."
