On the windowsill, Laton, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up again, and this time it was even worse. An inexplicable gust of wind blew it directly out of the window.
And the strength is quite strong, as if someone kicked him.
Rodan flapped several times in the air and finally flew again before falling to the ground.
No...it's not over yet!
The irritated Rodan flapped his wings and returned to the windowsill. Just when he was about to find his owner to have a good argument, he suddenly found... there was no one in the room.
In addition, not only Kyle, but even the "red-haired" one who just came was gone.
There were only tables, chairs, and bookshelves that were blown all over the place, and parchment all over the floor.
Rodan flew around the room, and after making sure that there was no one there, he returned to the windowsill, swept the place where "Red Hair" had been with his wings, retracted his neck, and continued to sleep.
……
On the other side, the moment Kyle was taken away by Fox, he was squeezed strongly from all directions and could not breathe at all.
It was like he had been forced into a ball... a Bludger at that, and then had been beaten with bats all day by those rough hitters.
It was unknown how long it had passed before his consciousness returned to his body.
Kyle opened his red eyes. He wanted to vomit, but his stomach seemed to be pinched by someone and he couldn't vomit at all. He could only take in big gulps of the earthy forest air.
"Relax."
At this time, a gentle voice came from the side.
It was Newt. He gave Kyle a fruit he couldn't name and motioned him to eat it.
Kyle took it subconsciously and put it in his mouth.
The fruit was sour and astringent, like biting into an unripe tomato.
But inexplicably, Kyle felt a lot more comfortable.
"What's this……"
"The fruit of the sour green bean pod." Newt said with a smile, "It is also the favorite food of the ball-eating bird. What do you think of it?"
"much better."
Kyle rubbed his ears and said, "I feel like I've Apparated a hundred times in a row."
"This is the Phoenix's way of traveling. It's simple and rough. It's great that you can still stand now."
Newt gave Kyle another fruit, but Kyle didn't eat it. He just put it under his nose and smelled it.
He finally understood now that Fox's previous hesitation was not because he didn't want to come here, but because he was worried about whether he could adapt to such an exciting way of traveling.
Unfortunately, he realized it too late, and foolishly threw in two cloak grass and a bubble pod...
"Perhaps only Professor Dumbledore can adapt to this way of traveling." Kyle muttered softly.
"In fact..." Newt glanced at Kyle with a smile, "Although Dumbledore often has to go to different places to attend various meetings, he usually chooses Apparition or Portkey.
Only in extremely urgent situations will we draw on the power of the Phoenix."
Kyle rubbed his ears again. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. It turned out that even Dumbledore couldn't adapt to it...
"But you really surprise me."
Newt smiled as he led Kyle into the house, "Fawkes almost never takes anyone else on trips except Dumbledore."

Chapter 265 The Adventures of the Naughty Child Norbert
"Who is coming..."
Inside the house, Tina was placing a plate of freshly baked cookies on the table.
"It's Kyle," Newt said with a smile.
Tina looked up in surprise, as she had thought it was an old friend.
"Did you forget to take something?"
She handed Kyle the plate of cookies.
"Why make another trip when you can just write a letter and have us deliver it to you?
Besides, Hogwarts starts tomorrow."
Kyle visited Newt and Tina once, not long after returning from Paris, and stayed for two days.
In addition to being idle this time, it is also because Fox sent the box over in advance.
It was a rare opportunity to get the "Phoenix Experience Card", so he thought he could just pick up Norbert and the troll, so that he wouldn't have to wait until the Christmas holiday.
But Kyle didn't expect Phoenix's way of traveling was so rough... If he had known this would be the case, he might as well wait until the Christmas holiday to come.
Kyle didn't say anything, but just put the box in his hand on the wooden shelf next to him.
Newt raised his eyebrows and understood instantly. He glanced at Fawkes on Kyle's shoulder and nodded calmly.
"Oh...isn't this a phoenix?"
At this time, Tina also noticed Fox and walked over with some surprise, "Dumbledore is here too, why don't you invite him in?"
"No, he should still be in Austria." Newt shook his head. "Only Kyle. Fox sent him here."
Tina blinked in surprise when she heard this.
Seeing a phoenix without Dumbledore being present... that was a rare event indeed.
Afterwards, Tina brought Kyle a glass of lemonade.
The lemonade is specially made, very sour and a little bitter, but it makes you feel comfortable after drinking it.
Kyle thought again of the fruit that Newt had given him before. They seemed to know very well how to relieve the discomfort.
"Have you ever been apparated by the Phoenix before?" Kyle asked curiously.
"That was many years ago," Newt recalled. "I must say, it was a really bad feeling, and it was very memorable."
Kyle nodded in agreement.
After drinking the lemonade, the two of them tacitly came to Newt's box.
Not long after entering, Fox spread his wings and flew towards a forest not far away.
Kyle frowned. He remembered that it seemed to be where the orb-eating birds lived. There were many different herbs planted there to treat sick magical animals.
"Don't worry." Newt came over from behind. "Although the phoenix is proud, it doesn't reject the ball-escape birds, so you don't have to worry about them."
Kyle twitched his lips.
He wasn't worried about the ball-escape bird, he was worried about the herbs...
Fox is becoming more and more like a foodie. When it left just now, Kyle even heard the sound of it swallowing saliva. It was obviously going to the buffet!
Looking at Newt's nonchalant expression, he obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter.
only……
Forget it, Kyle shook his head and decided to keep silent.
Just eat it. The most important thing now is to make Fox happy and improve its favorability.
As for Newt's loss, Dumbledore can just pay for it later. He has a big family and a lot of money, so he doesn't need the money for a few blades of grass.
Kyle nodded, then followed Newt to a huge lake.
Even Newt himself may not be able to tell how big his box is...
Just like the lake in front of us, the school’s Black Lake is as inconspicuous as a small puddle compared to this place.
There is also an island covered with huge rocks in the center of the lake, where the fire dragon lives.
The two men drove a small boat to the island.
As soon as he got ashore, Kyle suddenly felt a gust of strong wind blowing from overhead, and a huge shadow covered his feet.
As if he had thought of something, Kyle moved his fingers slightly and used the ring Diana gave him last year to instantly teleport to a place several hundred meters away.
The next second, a huge Norwegian Ridgeback crashed past where he was before.
It's Norbert. He liked to bump into Kyle's arms like this when he was a kid.
Although this bad habit was forcibly corrected by Kyle after it grew up, perhaps because it hadn't seen it for two months, it subconsciously forgot about it in excitement.
"Nobel, calm down..."
Kyle shouted hurriedly as he watched the Norwegian Ridgeback turn around and prepare to attack again.
Norbert is much bigger than he was two months ago. If you get hit by it, it could be fatal!
Now that Diana is not at home, the Apparition power on the ring cannot be renewed. Every time it is used, it is one less. He doesn't want to waste it here.
After hearing what Kyle said, Norbert finally stopped.
It flew over slowly and rubbed Kyle's arm with its head.
At this time, Newt also came over and said with a smile: "If you had come two days later, it probably wouldn't be so excited."
"That's true, but there's nothing we can do about it..." Kyle shrugged.
The last time he came, he had intended to visit Norbert, but because he was looking for trouble, he was beaten half to death by the native resident in the box, the Hungarian Horntail that had been returned three times by the Romanian Fire Dragon Reserve because of its bad temper.
After all, Norbert was less than a year old, while the Hungarian Horntail had already grown up for a long time. After the beating, it was in a coma for several days before waking up, just missing Kyle's visit.
But there are benefits.
Newt told him that Norbert's personality has become much more restrained since he woke up. He didn't turn from a naughty kid into a good kid, but he is not as naughty as before.
As he spoke, Newt took Kyle to see the Hungarian Horntail.
Perhaps because he was worried about something unexpected happening, Newt had never brought him here before.
So this was also the first time Kyle saw a Horntail in a box with his own eyes.
It was a strong, black, adult fire dragon. It seemed to smell something it didn't like. It stood up on its hind legs, its neck held high, and its orange-yellow eyes looked sharply in the direction of Kyle and Newt.
