"Of course."
"What about the director and the others?"
"That's fine, but the concerns cannot affect Jinshui Town too much. The number of people going there each time is limited, with a maximum of five people."
"Thank you so much!" Ye Ming was very happy and planned to take Lin Miao to enjoy a "time-travel journey".
Zhang Mu had nothing else to do, so after telling someone to "come find him before you leave", he ran to Hogwarts to teach the freshmen.
…………
Hogwarts.
At the corner of the academy, there is a separate lawn dedicated to the feeding and rest of magical creatures.
There were sparse trees beside the grass, and a winding path in the forest. Five freshmen were walking in a long line on the path.
It was early in the morning and the sun was rising.
The sunlight shines through the leaves, casting patches of light and dark on the ground.
Leon walked in the middle, looking around: "The principal said this is where magical creatures live, why don't I see any?"
Toby, who was at the front, didn’t look back: “I told you to listen carefully in class.
The teacher has emphasized that although most of the magical creatures we raise are docile, they can become violent if provoked and can easily injure people by mistake."
"Even if we don't get close, will just looking at them from afar stimulate the magical creatures?" asked Vino, who was at the end of the team.
Toby didn't want to pay attention to him, but remembering the Queen's teachings, he replied in a low voice: "I know you have studied a lot of books on the habits of magical creatures.
The book introduces them in great detail, but there are so many types of magical creatures that a few books are simply not enough to cover them all.
If you meet someone who thinks staring at us is provocative, you may be attacked even if you just look at us."
"That's it." Wino nodded and said no more.
As if sensing the tension in Toby's words, the three of them fell silent. Wino, on the other hand, didn't care at all and was just enjoying the beautiful scenery around him.
As the five people moved forward, the woods became increasingly sparse, until they came to a clearing in the forest and stopped.
There were two rows of benches at the edge of the open space. The queen sat alone in the front, with housekeeper Li standing beside her. Three reporters and a cameraman sat side by side at the back.
Toby heard that there were more than ten people traveling together this time, but there were only five of them in front of him. Apparently the rest were left in the academy.
He stepped forward to pay his respects and asked, and the Queen replied that it was indeed the case - the headmaster felt that too many shots might stimulate the magical creatures, and that only one person was enough for the filming.
So most of the accompanying personnel stayed in the college.
Of course, they were not unhappy, because they had obtained permission to "interview with others' consent" and were now running around the college looking for senior students.
"Is everyone here?" The principal's thin but straight figure appeared aside.
The people who were already accustomed to this were not surprised and responded calmly. However, the cameraman at the back stood up and started recording with the camera.
At the same time, his expression was a little annoyed, as if he was blaming himself for not turning on the machine earlier and missing the magical appearance just now.
"Yes." After scanning the crowd and making sure everyone was there, the principal turned to face the other side and said, "Get ready for class."
There was a sound of horse neighing from the other side of the woods. Everyone stared at the woods, but no horse came out for a long time.
Just as I was confused, Misha suddenly shouted, "Look at the sky!"
They subconsciously looked up and saw a Pegasus with two wings galloping towards them on all fours in the air.
Take a day off
As the title.
Chapter 299: Practical class is about to start, two places are reserved
Pegasus were galloping in the sky, and everyone was busy looking up at the magical creatures when they suddenly noticed a slight tremor in the ground beneath their feet.
The rhythm of the tremor was very regular and it was obviously not an earthquake.
The queen could not help but stand up from the bench and look at the woods beside the clearing. The trees were shaking as if a huge monster was roaming among them.
The next second, a rhinoceros with an earthy yellow body crashed into a tree and rushed out.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a rhinoceros.
There are several wrinkles on the skin, like the texture of armor, four short and sturdy legs, two cute little ears, and a sharp rhinoceros horn in front of the nose.
However, everyone present, including the five freshmen who knew a thing or two about magical creatures, subconsciously gave a negative answer.
Because he is so big.
Its broad body appears a little bulky, but it does not look fat at all, simply because it is about three stories tall.
The "Rhino" rushed towards them with the momentum to destroy the world. They instinctively felt fear and wanted to escape.
This is the awe that comes from genes, awe of the power that can easily crush oneself.
"Don't be afraid." Dumbledore waved his wand, and everyone felt their tense nerves relax.
He smiled and said, "The pack rhinoceros is famous for its docility."
The rhinoceros seemed to understand what he said and also noticed the panic of the crowd, so it slowed down its pace unconsciously.
As they got closer, the five freshmen and several people on the bench were instantly shrouded in shadow.
It lowered its head slightly and blinked, then suddenly half-knelt on its front legs, squatted down, and then lay on the ground on its side, revealing its round belly.
"Uh..." Toby broke free from the suffocation of giant fear and hesitated, "Principal, I think it seems to be..."
He seemed to be unable to think of a suitable adjective, and scratched his brow in distress. Fortunately, Leon was more familiar with the Internet and used words frequently, so he spoke up to help out: "Acting cute."
"You could say the same thing."
"Then what should we do?" Leon asked quickly.
"What would you do if your cat showed its belly?"
"Of course I'll just start." He answered confidently, and suddenly he was stunned.
撸？
It's not a cat, is it?
Leon turned his head left and right, hoping to discuss with Toby and Misha whether the principal was teasing him, but the two only gave him encouraging looks in response.
After a moment of daze, he finally reacted.
I go?
Although the principal affirmed that Tuoxinh had a gentle temperament, he was too big!
Look at those four legs, as thick as bridge piers. Even if it doesn’t mean to hurt me, I can’t stand a single touch from it!
Leon was struggling over whether to take a step forward, but the queen took the first step past everyone and came to the belly of the rhino lying on its side.
Looking at the belly with fine grooves, she took off her gloves, bent her five fingers slightly, stretched them out, and then gently scratched back and forth.
The pack rhino grunted a few times, lifted its two upper legs, and swayed its hind legs under its body to the rhythm of the scratching.
"Mr. Principal." The Queen patted her belly with her free hand and said with a magical expression, "It seems to be enjoying it."
"The rhinoceros is the main means of transportation for long-distance transport. When the first headmaster of Hogwarts selected it, he was attracted by its docility. Otherwise, the magic school would not have relied on it for all its material exchanges."
Zhang Mu's introduction was not fabricated or compiled. The pack rhinoceros was also the main means of transportation for transporting goods in the Sol continent.
The others caught the words "magic school" in the words and their eyes were instantly focused.
Toby couldn't help but ask, "I remember that there were other magic schools?"
"Of course." Dumbledore smiled, "You will see it at the annual magic school competition."
Magic school competition?
Harry Potter is already famous and has a huge fan base. With the advent of Hogwarts, even if you were not interested in the original novel before, you will now read the novel as a daily routine.
After long-term research and analysis, how could they be unfamiliar with the magic school competition that occupies an entire volume in the original work.
Vino, who has been worrying about the "organization" recently, became more active.
The seniors at Hogwarts were not at all impressed by his lobbying. He was worrying about the narrow channels for contacting wizards, but he didn't expect to get a pillow when he fell asleep.
So his mind was not on the present, but on traveling through time and space to next year's magic competition.
The principal seemed to notice that he was distracted and said seriously, "Vino, I know you are very diligent. You looked up information about magical creatures in the library before class started.
But those are only a tiny fraction of the magical creatures, and even those raised by the academy are not complete.
If you don’t listen carefully, you will be in danger in the practical class.”
Wino woke up with a start and found that everyone was looking at him. He quickly admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, Principal. I will pay attention."
"Ah."
Dumbledore responded calmly and waved toward the sky.
After receiving the call, the Pegasus hovering in the sky slowly descended.
The Pegasus looks similar to the horse in common sense, except for the former's pair of wings.
The queen left the rhinoceros and walked towards the pegasi curiously: "Mr. Principal, can I get closer to it?"
"You can try, but it has a bad temper. If it shows resistance, back off."
Hearing this, the queen was afraid of irritating Tianma, so she turned around and told the reporters to stop taking pictures, and then slowly walked towards it.
When it was about five meters away, it did not react violently and just lowered its head to eat grass.
The Queen showed joy on her face and thought that if the headmaster allowed her, she might be able to ride it.
However, just as the anticipation arose, Tianma suddenly raised his head, stared at the queen with a wary look, and snorted.
"It looks like it's in a bad mood today." Dumbledore stretched out his wand, and the queen was wrapped in magic and floated back to the bench.
"Alright everyone." He turned to face the Queen and her entourage, "Your next task is to watch quietly. I have to start my class."
Without waiting for a response, Dumbledore began to explain to the five freshmen the habits, preferences, and special abilities of Pegasus and Rhinoceros.
Behind them, more magical creatures were summoned.
