Chapter 167 Silently

Dorset is located in the southwest of England. It is undoubtedly a romantic place. The long coastline brings a glittering bay. Dorset is not only the starting point of the Jurassic Coast, but also has the romantic Cuffe Castle.

Newt's home is located a little further away from the coast, which helps them avoid the humid sea breeze. Here, Cyrus was warmly entertained. He was very happy that Tina was an American before, which gave his dinner a lot of new twists.

"So, what's the Ministry of Magic's wanted order?" Uncle Newt put down the fork in his hand and looked up at Cyrus.

Although he had already recognized this young man who "liked" magical animals, the Ministry of Magic's wanted order was not groundless, and Dumbledore seemed to have fought with Cyrus.

"They say you are a ghost from fifty years ago. I want to know how you keep your young appearance?" Tina's focus was obviously completely different from Newt's. She wanted to know more about how Cyrus maintained his appearance.

There are many people in the wizarding world who live to be one or two hundred years old, but almost no one can keep their physical condition young all the time. Even if you use the Transfiguration spell, it will consume a lot of magic power, which is not a long-term solution.

"It's a little different from the situation, Mr. Scamander. They are looking for Tom Riddle, and my name is Cyrus." Cyrus chuckled. He has always had a flexible standard for his identity.

"You can find that the portraits of Tom Riddle and I when we were young are actually just similar, not to mention that the other party has changed a lot now."

"So they recognized the wrong person?" Newt obviously didn't believe this answer.

But Cyrus nodded very seriously.

However, he only agreed with the view that "the Ministry of Magic recognized the wrong person", and did not say that the criminal records on the wanted list were not made by him, so this is not considered a deception.

"For now, the misunderstanding between Dumbledore and I has been resolved, at least temporarily." Cyrus said.

With this sentence as a guarantee, Newt was almost completely relieved about Cyrus. Only those who have really been with Dumbledore will understand this feeling. In most cases, if Dumbledore thinks something is right, it will not go wrong.

Of course, there is no absolute in this world.

After dinner, Newt took Cyrus into his suitcase.

As soon as he stepped in, there was a staircase leading down, as if leading to a spacious basement. Going down further, there was a wooden house, where Newt processed and fed the ingredients for magical animals.

Cyrus looked around and didn't see the woman who had been with Newt in the movie to help him take care of the animals.

"I have a lot of magical animals here, and the danger level is not very high." Newt seemed to have changed as soon as he talked about magical animals. Usually he spoke very little, and at dinner in the evening, he only asked about Cyrus' identity, and it seemed that he had considered it for a long time before reluctantly speaking it out.

But now, he knew everything.

"This is a Kaaba. I found it in Australia. A group of poachers took it away from Japan. Be careful, they are dangerous."

Kaaba is a magical animal that lives in water. They look like monkeys. They hide in the water and then drag people into the water to eat. Cyrus thinks that the rumors of water monkeys in some places may be because they were witnessed by Muggles.

This animal is not very powerful, but it is very cunning and aggressive to people, because the Ministry of Magic has set their danger level as 4X. The assessment of the danger level of magical animals not only depends on the power of the magical animals themselves, but also on how much casualties the opponent can cause to wizards, as well as the habits of this creature.

For example, the fire dragon and the thunderbird, the former has a danger level of 5X, while the latter has a danger level of 4X, the same as the Kaaba. But in fact, if they really fight, the thunderbird may not be the opponent of the fire dragon.

There are also magical animals of the same 5X level, and the combat effectiveness between the eight-eyed giant spider and the fire dragon is even more different. But the horror of the Acromantula is not the destructive power of one of them, but its entire tribe, and they also like to eat people!

"Usually I don't keep very dangerous magical animals, because they are very aggressive and will attack each other. And powerful magical animals have a strong sense of territory." Newt said, obviously this Kaba was just not released by him in time.

"Its luck is not good. There is a horse-shaped water monster in the lake, and it drove this Kaba to the shore."

Cyrus looked at these animals, and his heart seemed to calm down a little, even though the Kaba was still grinning at him without knowing whether to live or die, like an annoying Emei monkey.

Later, Cyrus also saw the invisible beast, which looked very similar to apes, but it looked much more docile, and looked more like a wise old man, not as hideous as Kaba.

Most of the magical animals living in Newt's suitcase have one characteristic-rare. Several magical animals are almost extinct in the outside world, but here there is a tribe that can barely continue to reproduce.

"Look, that's a Chinese Qilin. I thought they were all extinct." Newt pointed to a direction for Cyrus from hundreds of meters away in a mountain forest. He handed the telescope to Cyrus, but Cyrus actually didn't need the telescope to see the auspicious beast with bony bones.

"The Qilin will choose the true leader. Almost half a century ago, the dark wizard Grindelwald had set his sights on the Chinese Qilin. He killed a newly born Qilin, took away its child, and made it into a corpse, making it bow to him in front of the whole world..."

Newt seemed to be reminiscing about the past, but his face was full of haze.

"But he miscalculated. He didn't expect that the Kirin actually gave birth to two children. We brought the real living Kirin to expose his conspiracy, but the Kirin identified Dumbledore. Since then, Dumbledore has become the chief wizard of the International Confederation of Wizards."

"So, this Kirin is the Kirin cub of that year?"

"Yes," Newt nodded stiffly, "I have tried many ways to continue its population, but I haven't found a second Chinese Kirin for so many years. Some subspecies Japanese Kirin have been shipped here, but it doesn't seem to be interested at all."

Newt looked very regretful.

"Maybe you can go to Hogwarts to find a man named Rubeus Hagrid, who just took over as a professor of the Care of Magical Creatures course this year. He is very good at hybridization between magical animals, cough, I mean cross-breeding." Cyrus said tactfully.

"Really?" Newt seemed very surprised, but a little worried, "I don't know if he will be willing to help me."

"Hagrid likes magical animals very much. I think you will have common topics. You can write to Dumbledore. I believe he will introduce you." Cyrus ended the topic and looked further away.

There was a vast snowfield over there.

"Do you still take in snowmen here?" Cyrus said deliberately.

Compared to the unicorn, the magical animals sealed in the ice and snow are his real goal this time!

Following Cyrus's gaze, Newt's expression became more lost. He shook his head and said softly: "I don't take in any sub-humans here. Come with me."

He didn't explain anything, but just took Cyrus to that side.

Soon they reached the edge of the jungle.

"I cast a separation spell here to separate two different areas. It may be a bit cold to go directly there."

"Don't worry about me."

Cyrus's physical fitness is like a human-shaped thunderbird, but the cold is not a problem.

So they crossed the boundary and came to a mass of black matter. The ice and snow froze it, and it looked like a pile of frozen black oil.

"This is the Obscurus."

Obscurus - a dark creature born from the body of a wizard!

"Young wizards constantly suppress their magical power, which will eventually cause the magic to give birth to such monsters in their bodies! Young wizards with Obscurus in their bodies usually do not live to the age of ten and will go berserk because their own magic cannot control it." Newt said.

He didn't dare to say a word.

'If the wizard's magic is strong, he will be able to suppress the Obscurus, but as time goes by, the Obscurus will become stronger. '

He thought of Cresden, that is, Aurelius Dumbledore, the son of Aberforth. This gifted wizard suppressed the monster in his body for more than ten years, and finally even began to control the power of the Obscurus!

It's a pity...

Cyrus walked in front of the Obscurus. This Obscurus did not look so powerful, otherwise it would not be subdued by Newt.

"It feels like a combination of negative emotions." Whether it was Cyrus or Voldemort, it was actually the first time that they saw the Obscurus in person. This evil creature gave him the feeling that it was the power of negative emotions extracted by ancient magic.

"You are right." Newt nodded affirmatively.

This Obscurus came from a nine-year-old girl. When Newt first met her, things had already developed to an irreversible level. He has always had a knot in his heart about this. Over the years, he has also been trying to study how the Obscurus was born.

"Wizards need strong will to participate in casting spells. The magic itself contains many emotions. When these emotions are suppressed for a long time, the accumulated magic power combines with emotions, and such monsters will be born!"

When Newt looked at the Obscurus, it was as if he was watching a sad story.

And in fact, it is true.

Only wizards who extremely suppress their own magical power and are in pain for many years will have the Obscurus born in the most vulnerable place in their hearts.

"They can't even be called magical animals. They are just a collection of magic and negative emotions. They seem to have come alive unexpectedly, but their minds are full of destruction."

Cyrus lowered his head, his golden eyes glowing, as if he wanted to see the inside of this black thing clearly!

Newt also noticed Cyrus's magic at this moment. He took a half step back to prevent any obstacles to Cyrus, and at the same time, he looked at the golden eyes with his peripheral vision.

When looking at those eyes, he always felt that he was looking into the eyes of a noble thunderbird.

The eyes seemed to show off their nobility. Although their eyes were almost at the same level, Newt felt insignificant as if he was being looked down upon by the other person from above!

However, he was not too surprised. In the magic world, there are often one or two people who have more powerful talents than other wizards, such as snake talkers, metamorphmagus, and prophet...

Although it is rare to have a pair of magic eyes, it is not too rare.

Speaking of which, Grindelwald has an unusual eye.

Gradually, the light in Cyrus' eyes seemed to go out. Now when he looked at him, he would no longer have that kind of breathtaking feeling.

"Did you find anything?" Newt asked.

Cyrus did not answer. He just picked up the wand and gently tapped on the body of the silent man. Then he closed his eyes. In an instant, it was as if a drop of water fell into a calm lake in his mind. The memories of the four guardians unfolded in his mind--

The scene of Morgana using ancient magic to extract the painful emotions in her father's heart reappeared like an old movie, without missing a single detail.

"Emotional stripping."

There was no spell, just a simple spell. Cyrus raised his wand and seemed to take out a ball of black shrimp thread.

"What is this?"

Newt's face was disgusted. The black substance was twisted and knotted like several living parasites, and pustules all over the body.

"It is the essential evil." Cyrus said softly.

The thing lingering on the tip of his wand at this moment was the same as the magic that Voldemort had cast through the goblin Lanlock before. It contained extremely powerful magical power, but it didn't look so impressive.

And the Obscurus, who lost this part of emotion, lost its vitality like a heart, and quickly withered in the freezing and turned into mud.

"How did you do it?" Newt asked in surprise.

Even Dumbledore couldn't do this. Even if he could kill the Obscurus, it was impossible to extract the darkness of the Obscurus. Otherwise, Cresden wouldn't have to go to destruction.

"This is ancient magic."

Cyrus resisted the urge to swallow the thing and sealed it in a container instead.

This is a perfect test product!

Cyrus did not intend to give up the powerful power left by Morgana, but he could not risk his life. Now with this sample, he can make better preparations to ensure that his soul will not be polluted by those "malice" while gaining power!
