Chapter 235 Luna Pendant

Shalling's laboratory is in the suitcase space. It was originally the place where Mr. Scamander did research on magical animals. Of course, his research direction is how to raise, care for and treat magical animals, which is completely different from Shalling's direction.

Shalling is not a fan of magical animals, nor is he a nature conservationist. From his point of view, whether it is magical animals or magical plants, they are essentially no different from spells, transfiguration, defense, and dark magic. They are just tools.

Well, the silver fang may be the only exception.

It represents the kindness hidden in the deepest part of Shalling's heart, and the innocence sealed by Shalling in the past.

Originally a laboratory the size of a Slytherin common room, Shalling has now expanded it to the size of the Hogwarts Great Hall with the traceless extension spell, at least ten times larger than at the beginning.

The laboratory is not gloomy and dim, but brightly lit.

The ceiling is not embedded with torches with flames, because Shalling does not like the light created by flames. He prefers the white light of LED lighting used in his previous life. So he asked the Greengrass family to help him collect a kind of insect called "Glow Bug" from all over Europe, and then asked the Hohenheim family to provide alchemical containers engraved with sealing spells, put the glow bugs in them, and let the containers float in the air one by one.

(Note: The glow bug setting comes from the Fantastic Beasts movie, used by Newt Scamander for lighting, and is one of his suitcase pets)

The lighting device designed by Schelling is more advanced than the Muggle LED lighting. A top-level LED lighting can only be used for thirty or forty years at most.

Schelling's lighting is eternal, because the sealing spell on the container completely seals the life of the glow bugs. They can never grow old or die, and can only emit light in the container forever, contributing light to the world.

In addition to an operating table for dissection and a long table for various experiments in the laboratory, there are also cylindrical transparent crystal containers around, and the creatures in them are all creatures, or monsters, that Luna has never seen before.

Luna widened her already large and bright eyes, as if a Muggle entered Diagon Alley for the first time, and everything looked so new to her.

"Ah, what is that?" She pointed to a dark black plant in a container that was very similar to the Devil's Snare, but the vines were covered with red spots that looked like blood.

"This is the Man-Eating Vine, a variant of the Devil's Snare. It likes to feed on human flesh and blood. It will actively wrap and strangle its prey with vines, and then secrete a special mucus to digest the corpse." Xie Lin smiled faintly. This Man-Eating Vine is not easy to cultivate, but it took him several months of irrigation with human blood to evolve. He really has to thank... that person...

Xie Lin thought for a while, ah, I remembered, Hector Fry, thank him for his selfless contribution of flesh and blood... Well, in order to preserve the magic in the flesh and blood, Xie Lin also specially sacrificed these flesh and blood with an ancient ritual magic, and Fry lost a leg forever.

What a great man!

"Ah, isn't this an Inferi?" Luna pointed at a short humanoid creature in another cylindrical container. It looked a bit like a dwarf, but ten times uglier, like a cross between a human and a dwarf pig monster. Luna did not reject black magic. In her opinion, the human heart was the most terrifying thing in the world. To put it bluntly, black magic was just a tool.

Well, there might be some subtle influence from Schelling, but Schelling could swear that he had never modified Luna's memory.

"My dear Luna," Xielin smiled, "Have you ever seen such an ugly corpse?"

"This is actually the offspring of a heavy-tasting female witch and a dwarf pig monster who did some, uh, adult behavior."

"Ah!" Luna covered her mouth in disbelief, and she blinked her big eyes, "How can there be such a person? So disgusting!"

"Isn't it?" Xielin replied lightly, "When I learned about this, I was also surprised."

Well, Xielin didn't lie, he was really surprised at the time-

Humans, in order to survive, they can really do anything. After Hector Foley's other leg was also sacrificed for great research, Lushida Slahorn, who was watching everything, collapsed directly. In order to survive, to avoid the same fate, she was able to resolutely choose to fight with the dwarf pig monster... At that moment, Xie Lin was really shocked...

"I named this creature the Cursed Demon. They are born evil and contain powerful curse power. Once released into the community, they will bring disaster to the area within a hundred miles." Xie Lin added with a serious face, "So you must be extremely careful and don't let it escape from this laboratory."

"Okay, Luna, stop looking at those disgusting monsters and come here," Xie Lin waved to Luna, and the two came to the breeding tank for breeding vampire flies.

"Ah!" Luna exclaimed again, this time not because of how ugly this thing was, not because of how scary this thing was, and not because of how disgusting this thing was, but because——

This thing, this new species, she recognized it!

"The Harassment Fly!" Luna's face was full of surprise, "Where did you find the Harassment Fly?"

"I have my own way," Xie Lin raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Luna put her face against the transparent surface of the breeding tank and watched every move of the harassing fly.

She turned her head, her beautiful face flushed with excitement, and she said in a dreamy tone: "I must tell dad about this..."

She suddenly became quiet, looked at Xie Lin with her misty, protruding eyes, and said calmly: "Dad has been trying for many years, but he has never been able to prove the existence of molesting flies. I think, even you, want to It’s not easy to find this thing, right?”

"Uh..." Xie Lin could only nodded dully. He looked at Luna's unusually serious expression and wanted to make a joke, but suddenly he seemed to be hit by a tongue expansion spell and couldn't say anything. Seriously speaking, it is indeed not easy to make a molesting fly. Think about it, how much blood Xie Lin and Sulf lost in order to cultivate this thing. They have to take blood supplements every day to recover. Do you think it is hard or not? ?

Luna bit her lower lip (surprise! This action happened again), quickly ran to Xie Lin, and kissed Xie Lin on the lips like a dragonfly.

! ! !

what happend?

"Luna, I..." Xie Lin hesitated.

Luna couldn't help but smile when she looked at Xie Lin. She tilted her head, showed a naughty smile, and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just thanking you for everything you have done for me."

"Ah?" Xie Lin raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then smiled, "I don't know, when did we start expressing gratitude in this way?"

"Well...it seems I'm a little behind the times. No, I still have to go find Murray and ask..." Xie Lin said as if talking to himself.

"Come on," Luna had a faint smile on her face, an inexplicable light flashed in her eyes, and her voice was no longer trance-like, "You don't need to ask Murray, I can tell you the answer right now. ”

The two stared at each other without saying a word.

The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence, as if even the surrounding air had stopped flowing.

"I can thank you one more time..." Luna's voice sounded softly, and Xie Lin suddenly noticed that he had always ignored it. Luna's voice was so beautiful, much better than that female singer.

Xie Lin no longer remembers what happened in the middle. He only knows that his lips were suddenly blocked by two soft pieces, and a pair of arms hugged his neck tightly. This time, the two never separated again...

ten minutes later.

Luna lowered her head slightly and fiddled with her golden hair unconsciously. Xie Lin coughed lightly to ease the awkward atmosphere. In fact, he had never regarded Luna as his target.

This girl Luna has a very special place in his heart. She represents Xie Lin's own yearning, and represents a dream that he cannot realize in this life.

She is a free elf and an unfettered soul; while Xie Lin is burdened with the missions of his family, Meredith, Sleeping Dragon Society, etc., he can only move forward hard and never dare to slack off.

Xie Lin knew that he liked Luna, but he never thought about getting her and possessing her. What he wants to do more is to become Luna's good friend and protect her rare innocence.

What he didn't know was that at this moment, in a family secret room called Scamander in distant London, a strange-shaped bird egg suddenly cracked open, and a green bird with a crooked beak fluttered its wings with some sparse feathers. flew away.

The observers who saw this scene hurried to the head of the family's office as quickly as possible and reported this abnormal phenomenon that had not been seen for a long time to Herman Scamander, the contemporary head of the Scamander family.

Half an hour later, the summoning order for the most senior members of the Scamander family was officially issued. All important members of the Scamander family must gather together to discuss major issues that affect the entire family.

Let's go back to the laboratory.

Accompanied by Xie Lin, Luna carefully controlled the harassing fly. Although Luna looked carefree, Xie Lin did not dare to take it lightly. He stayed close to Luna and observed intently. Luna performs the insect manipulation technique. As the person who created this species, no one knows the power of these harrassing flies better than him, and no one is more alert than him to the serious consequences of harrassing flies out of control.

These blood-sucking flies like to suck human blood and are extremely aggressive. As long as they bite humans, they can cause mental confusion, emotional irritability, loss of reason and other effects. If there are too many bites, the person will most likely become insane and completely crazy. If there was any problem with Luna's insect-manipulating technique, Xie Lin must completely eliminate them as quickly as possible before they go berserk.

What Schelling feared did not happen. After Luna's blood power awakened, she had an unimaginable affinity for these small animals. She moved her fingers in the air and uttered a mysterious language similar to the buzzing sound of insects. The harassing flies were like a well-disciplined army. The army, following her command, formed various formations in mid-air——

There is a trident formation for attack, a half-moon formation for defense, and a long snake formation for assault... In short, it is similar to the ancient war art that Xie Lin has seen in the Muggle world, but it is unpredictable.

After watching the harassment flies demonstrate 33 different formations, Xie Ling felt that he had seen enough and decided that it was time to put them away. He took out a very small pendant box from his arms and placed it in his open palm. Although this pendant box looks small, it is very exquisitely crafted. It not only has lifelike carvings, but also inlaid with several precious gems. It is more than enough to be used as a pendant jewelry for a beautiful lady.

Xie Ling whispered: "Let the insects out of the box", and the lid of the pendant box suddenly opened.

At Xie Ling's signal, Luna commanded all the harassment flies to fly into the pendant box. After the last harassment fly also flew into the box, Xie Ling whispered "All the insects return to the box", and the box suddenly closed with a bang.

Xie Ling walked in front of Luna, and under the gaze of Luna, who was blushing like an apple, he carefully passed his hand through Luna's snow-white jade neck and helped her wear the necklace with the pendant box.

"I made this box especially for you. It will be yours from now on," Xie Lin smiled gently. "I gave it a name, let's call it--"

"Pandora's Box."
