Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 204 The Expensive House-Elf (Part [-])
Passing through the black magic item trading area, Jerry leaned on crutches and walked to other areas that he had not set foot in last time.

However, he turned around, but he didn't see any stalls that sold magical animals or magical animal eggs. It seemed that this black market did not provide this service.

Jerry didn't give up. Since Quirrell was able to buy dragon eggs to trap Hagrid, it meant that there were definitely sales of prohibited magical animals in the black market, but he couldn't find a way.

With a thought in his heart, Jerry walked slowly to a slightly remote stall in the corner, pointed at the unshaven middle-aged stall owner, and quietly released the Imperius Curse.

"Do you know where illegal magical animals are sold on the black market?"

"You need Heaton to buy magical animals."

The middle-aged stall owner who had been hit by the Imperius Curse had a happy expression on his face.

"Which Heaton?"

Jerry continued.

"Heaton, that wizard standing at the top of the stairs"

Hearing the stall owner's explanation, he probably figured out what was going on.

It turns out that the black market for banned magical animals is not here, but in a hidden place in the suburbs of Paris. After all, many magical animals are quite large and very aggressive, and if something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome.

The Ministry of Magic may turn a blind eye to contraband under pubs, but it will never allow dangerous magical animals to appear on Magic Street.

Therefore, if you want to go there, you must either know the location, or go to the wizard named Heaton at the door.

"Forget it all!"

After releasing the control of the Imperius Curse, Jerry used the Forgetting Curse to erase the memory of the stall owner just now, and then walked towards the wizard named Heaton at the stairs.

"I want to buy some magical animals, I wonder if you can take me there!"

This time Jerry didn't use the Imperius Curse or the Confusion Curse, but took out a bag of shining Galleons.

The stall owner just said that as long as he shows enough financial resources, this wizard named Heaton will not care about Jerry's identity and will take him there directly.

Sure enough, although the wizard had some doubts about when Jerry entered the black market below, after seeing hundreds of Galleons, he immediately smiled and led Jerry to the compartment behind the bar.

"Sir, hold this bottle, it will take you where you want to go!"

"sorry to bother you!"

Jerry glanced at the wine bottle and knew that it must be the door key to the suburbs of Paris, so he reached out and held it without hesitation.

The space distorted for a while, and his body was instantly sucked into the wine bottle and disappeared.

When he landed again, he was no longer in the bar on French Magic Street, but appeared in a super big tent.

This super big tent should be the same as his box space, expanded by the Untraceable Stretch Curse, and it is as big as five or six football fields.

Inside, you can see many kinds of magical animals that are locked up, as well as wizards who wear hoods back and forth and hide their identities.

"Ball escape bird, ball escape bird, a rare bird species that is about to become extinct, the one with the highest price gets it!"

"Troll, the cub of the mountain troll, well trained is a good troll security guard!"

"A small giant eight-eyed spider. When you grow up, you will have an inexhaustible supply of venom!"

The entire tent was filled with the cries of black wizards one after another.

Seeing this, Jerry didn't waste any time, and began to search carefully in the tent.

Unfortunately, after he visited half of the tents, he couldn't find any suitable magical animals.

Most of the magical animals he has seen so far are of XX or XXX level, and there are very few magical animals of XXXX level, let alone XXXXX level.

With his current strength, the number of magical animals that can be contracted is limited. Of course, he must choose the magical animal that is more helpful to him.

It was like a ball-flying bird, it was really cute and fluffy, but it was completely useless to him.

Like giant monsters, their strength is good, but their brains are not good, and the price/performance ratio is extremely low. If the number of them increases in the future, they can go to some forests where giant monsters gather and pack up the entire tribe. There is no need to buy one alone.

As for the acromantula, it's quite good, its IQ is no lower than that of a human, and its venom is also very valuable.

However, there are many things in the Forbidden Forest, so why should he spend so much money to buy them here? Why not go to the Forbidden Forest to buy them after school starts.

Others such as little devil, fire ash snake, swallowtail dog, etc. are either useless, or the price/performance ratio is too low to be worth buying.

It wasn't until he wandered to the innermost part of the tent that he finally found what he wanted.

That should be the largest magical animal sales place in the entire tent, and its booth alone occupies one tenth of the area of ​​the tent.

Unlike other stalls where one or two black wizards are selling, there are more than [-] black wizards selling in this booth, like a big team.

Moreover, the level of magical animals sold inside is obviously not at the same level as other stalls.

The giant horse-shaped water monster in a large water tank, the rune snake with three heads, the snowman with snow-white hair and a height of five meters, etc., are all extremely dangerous and aggressive magical animals.

However, these are not what Jerry values ​​most. What he values ​​most are the four shivering house elves with two big bat-like ears.

House elves, magical creatures in the wizarding world, and the most loyal servants of wizards.

Although they seem to be very weak, in fact, every house elf has a good magical ability.

They are proficient in elf magic. Although they don't have any powerful attack magic, they are extremely good at housework, invisibility and teleportation magic, and can even perform apparation in Hogwarts.

At present, Jerry's biggest weakness is the two families of Haas and Aisha, and Teacher Belle can count as half of them.

But if everyone gave them a house elf by their side, then his only weakness could be said to make up for most of it.

House elves can be invisible, even if they follow Haas and others, they will not be found.

When encountering ordinary enemies, they can use elven magic to deal with them easily. If they encounter truly powerful enemies, they can also directly lead people to escape with apparation.

Safety can be said to be greatly improved.

However, when Jerry asked the price, he was a little dumbfounded.

The price of a house elf was as high as [-] Galleons. All his current savings combined were not enough to buy a house elf.

No wonder, only some wizarding families with ancient traditions will have house elves.

It turns out that ordinary people simply can't afford house elves.

In the wizarding world, the average wizard's income is only a few dozen Galleons a month, and a better job, similar to an ordinary Auror in the Ministry of Magic, is only more than 100 Galleons a month.

Ordinary wizards may have to work for more than ten or twenty years without food or drink before they can earn 20 gold Galleons.
