Hogwarts Ordnance Manual

Chapter 49 What a wizard

When he put the last stroke, the poster seemed to suddenly come to life, jumped out of Dudley's hands, folded itself into a small paper man, and then politely helped him open the wooden door. He even bowed gracefully to him.

Dudley strode in, and sure enough, he seemed to have passed through a refreshing waterfall, and the scenery in front of him changed drastically.

The originally sparse paddock with a few cows and horses grazing has turned into a large forest, the farmland covered with residual snow has turned into a large pond, and the old barns and cattle pens have turned into several towering trees, which are seven meters above the ground. There are five or six wooden houses built on the eight-meter branches, which are exquisite and dreamy.

Several cats were playing on the grass under the big tree. An old man was wearing brown work clothes and trimming the hair of a long-haired animal. What surprised Dudley even more was that there was an old man standing next to him. A pretty beauty is none other than Nina.

"Miss Nina! You are here too!" Dudley greeted Nina proactively with eyes filled with stars.

Nina blinked and didn't recognize Dudley for a moment. After all, in the past six months, Dudley had almost changed into a completely different person.

The old man sitting on the small bench also took off his reading glasses and watched Dudley approach with curiosity.

"Say hello, Mr. Scamander!" Dudley took off his hat and saluted politely.

"I'm very surprised to be able to answer the question at the door correctly, Mr. Dursley." Newt stood up. Although he was old, his body was quite strong. He did not have a long beard like many old wizards, but He was clean shaven, with deep wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were as wise and deep as Dumbledore.

After shaking hands with Dudley, Newt continued: "Ralph told me that you would come to visit, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. Is Hogwarts on vacation now?"

Dudley scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Isn't this a bit urgent..."

"You're Dursley! Dudley Dursley... I don't know... you've changed a lot!" Nina then recognized him, stepped forward and looked Dudley from side to side, then nodded.

"Ha, Miss Cummings also said that there is something urgent...I'm just a retired old man, I'm afraid I don't have the energy..." Newt winked at Dudley, and Dudley instantly understood what he meant: it's your business Let’s talk about it later, I don’t want to worry about the Ministry of Magic at all!He mistook Nina for being sent by the Ministry of Magic.

Nina said anxiously: "But my father said that only Mr. Scamander can help..."

Regardless of whether Newt and Dudley wanted to hear it or not, she directly explained her purpose.

Because of Dudley's incident, Nina was suspended for half a year. It wasn't until Christmas that she was allowed to return to the Auror office to continue her internship. Who knew she would be in big trouble just after she started working?

The Ministry of Magic discovered a dark wizard's laboratory in the east of Cambridge and asked Jeb to lead a team to investigate. However, when they passed by, the place was empty and there was only a pile of manuscripts burned to ashes.Jeb decided to close the case, but Nina found many suspicious clues in the huge laboratory dungeon and hoped to conduct a thorough investigation, so she had an argument with the captain again.

Needless to say, this girl is acting alone again.

"Why do you think I can help you?" Newt asked curiously.

"Because of this!" Nina took out a picture album from her small bag. It looked like it was a few years old. On the cover of the album, there was a young man wearing a wide sun hat, standing on a grassland.Dudley could tell at a glance that it was the young Newt.

"You once personally went to Africa to investigate the ecological conditions of the magical animals there. In your research report, you mentioned the habits and hazards of the poisonous leopard." Nina turned to one of the pages, and on the screen was a strange large cat. The animal looks like a panther, but it has a thick ring around its neck. From a distance, it looks like a lion's mane, but when you look closely, it turns out to be carapace-like glands. At first glance, it doesn't look good.

Then Nina took out another glass bottle. There were some dark residues in the bottle, which may be the excrement of creatures, as well as some animal hair.

"I found this in the secret laboratory dungeon." Nina said.

Newt frowned and quickly took it. He didn't mind it being dirty. He opened the glass bottle, stretched out his hand to crush the residue, and smelled it carefully, his brows getting tighter and tighter.

Dudley wasn't very interested at first. Although he wanted to help Nina, he also knew that he was a first-year student. How could he be allowed to solve the case?But the Ordnance Manual suddenly jumped out and issued a new mission to him.

[Trigger plot: The conspiracy of the Night Shadow Church, automatically accept the hunting mission (lv.6)]

[Hunting mission (lv.6): Kill the poisonous leopard fusion, kill "Iron Fist" Hawke, kill "Red Eyes" Harvit (optional)]

[Task reward: Random D-level sub-skill orb*1, 1500 gold galleons (rewarded once for each target killed)]

[Failure penalty: All attributes -5]

[Task time limit: 72 hours]

[Countdown 71:59:45]

Dudley really didn't expect that he would be kind enough to help Firenze deliver a letter, and wanted to ask Master Newt for information about the "Faceless Men", but he would be inexplicably involved in Nina's case, and it seemed that this " "Church of Night Shadow" should have a huge impact on itself or the entire British magical community, otherwise it would not attract the attention of the Ordnance Manual system.

This time, three targets were given. Killing any one of them should count as completing the mission, but obviously killing three will get three times the reward. It goes without saying how much the three skill orbs can help Dudley. For 4500 gold coins, Dudley was going to kill these two beasts.

Dudley pretended to be interested and stepped forward to check. He also frowned like Newt. He said coldly: "This is not a purebred poison leopard. The dark wizard is doing species fusion experiments. They have merged other species." The organization of dangerous creatures.”

Of course, Dudley couldn't figure out any big reason from this bit of leopard shit, but he could analyze it from the words "venomous leopard fusion", his mission target, and from all the known information. More details are his forte.

Newt's eyes widened and he looked at him in surprise. He had 80 or 100 years of research experience and had personally visited more than 1 countries on five continents to study and study, so he had some extraordinary ability to distinguish between these excreta. and hair analysis revealed that this laboratory should be doing species fusion. The reachability is so far away, and it is beyond Newt’s imagination to be able to make an accurate judgment just by looking at it. He also thought that the reachability was just short of reach. He solved the riddle at his door in just one minute. Could it be that this child is a once-in-a-century biological wizard?

"What kind of creature do you think they used to fuse with the poisonous leopard?" Newt wanted to test Dudley again. Of course, it was reasonable even if Dudley couldn't answer the question.

"Some kind of flying animal..." Dudley said a little uncertainly.Harmful!How the hell does he know what animal he used to fuse with the Poison Leopard?However, there is an old saying in the East that a tiger is more powerful than a tiger. If you want to make a highly lethal cat like a poisonous leopard more powerful, you can only make it fly.

"Pah! Wizard! Wizard!" Newt slapped his thigh so hard that he almost knocked off his reading glasses. Several bowtruckles came out of his pockets and looked at them in confusion. What is Newt excited about?Nina also looked at Dudley with wide eyes.

He stepped forward and held Dudley's hand, and said excitedly: "Your name is Dudley, right? Are you interested in learning about the protection of magical animals from me?"

Dudley looked embarrassed. He was afraid that he was going to accept him as a closed disciple. Think about it, Newt's son did not inherit his father's legacy, and his grandson... looked dull (in fact, Ralph later passed Newt's lifelong knowledge and "savings" now seem to be somewhat untrusted, and Dudley gives him hope.

Dudley pointed to his school emblem and said: "Master Newt, I appreciate your kindness. I am only a first-year Hufflepuff student. I have to be your disciple after graduation, right?"

"Ha...I'm impatient..." Newt retracted his hand in embarrassment, but Dudley could see that this guy definitely didn't give up.
