Chapter 638: Contact of the Third Kind
It’s still very troublesome now…
These mermaids were so timid that as soon as Fan Lin approached, they fled in all directions like birds and beasts.
The mermaid's speed was so fast that Fan Lin couldn't catch up.
This had to make Fan Lin change his original intention. Originally, he did not intend to harm these mermaids, but now it seems that he had to use some unconventional means.
Surface-to-air missiles... uh... similar...
It can be seen from the faces of these mermaids that they know nothing about magic. Naturally, Fanlin does not need any destructive techniques.
In fact, Fan Lin just used magic to send his voice into the brains of each mermaid, and then symbolically used a blasting spell to break a stone, and the mermaids naturally came over obediently.
In their eyes, magic is something invincible.
This greatly facilitated Fanlin's questioning, but Fanlin didn't have much hope.
The mermaid tribe at Hogwarts was really too closed-minded, and it was much worse than he imagined.
Moreover, those mermaids were scared to death now, which could be seen from the bubbles trembling from their mouths.
Fan Lin confirmed that they could understand his words, which proved that there was not much problem with his language. However, the problem was that these mermaids were so scared that their originally deformed voices could not be completely recognized.
I really don’t know how Dumbledore communicated with these mermaids. You know, Dumbledore is also a wizard. He may...
It looked like I had frightened these guys.
Fan Lin must show enough goodwill, at least, to calm down the mermaid in front of him, and to be able to communicate smoothly is a serious matter.
One thing that can be confirmed is that the mermaid tribe at Hogwarts has no ability to master magic at all.
This can be clearly seen from Newt's "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". Mermaids have different abilities due to different regional customs and blood ties.
Judging from the powerful bodies of these mermaid warriors, the chances of mastering magic are really pitifully low.
However, Fan Lin decided to give it a try. At least, Fan Lin himself was quite unwilling to just go back like this.
After letting go of the mermaid who was almost scared to death, Fan Lin waved his hand and found some human accessories specially collected and some things that Professor Luping helped him prepare.
Regarding magical creatures, Professor Lupine's knowledge is still trustworthy.
Mermaids like music, and Professor Lupine happened to have prepared some music boxes that can make sounds underwater.
The appearance of these things immediately attracted the attention of these mermaids.
Fan Lin spit out a series of bubbles from his mouth, trying hard to express that these things were given to them.
But because of their bad experiences before, these mermaids still dare not move.
Fanlin could clearly feel the fear coming from their spiritual world.
In fact, such a simple spiritual world also makes Fanlin a little helpless.
These closed mermaids are almost defenseless against anything.
Fan Lin's fingers moved quickly in the water, and some silver light spread from the fingertips into the water.
This is the patron saint spell, which can be said to be the collection of all the good and goodwill in Fanlin's heart.
Another effect of this spell is also very important, that is, soothing. The Patronus Charm can soothe the impact of the spiritual world to a certain extent, which comes from the warmest power.
However, this is probably the effect of adding one or two soul magic circuits. In short, it is quite appropriate to put it here.
From the perspective of the patron saint, Fanlin still has not summoned the complete patron saint.
A silver cat appeared at the bottom of the lake. This was really out of character no matter how you thought about it.
At least Fanlin felt very awkward. Who knows how this pretentiousness came about in his heart.
With the light of his patron saint, Fan Lin thrust a small music box into the hand of the merman closest to him.
A lot of bubbles came out of his mouth.
"Well...give it to...Gulu...your..."
This scene is very strange. If it weren't for the fact that the mermaids of Hogwarts do not have the appearance of their ancestors, this scene would become very cute.
In the middle of winter, at the bottom of the lake, the little wizard of Hogwarts abducts the little mermaid...
If it could solve the problem of the fish tail, this would be a pretty good suggestion, but Fan Lin had never heard of such an advanced deformation potion.
Maybe it existed originally, but it is definitely lost.
The most critical reason is that these mermaids are getting worse and worse. Humans are completely useless...
However, Fanlin's actions were like opening a floodgate.
Under the influence of the Patronus Charm. The fear in the mermaid's mind was completely replaced by kindness and warmth.
Facing their favorite things, how could these mermaids tolerate their inner expectations?
However, these mermaids did not swarm forward. They approached slowly, and Fan Lin was more willing to line up these things one by one.
He brought enough gadgets, at least, it was enough to be satisfied with the mermaid in front of him.
These mermaid warriors took what they wanted in their hands, and then all the mermaids dispersed.
This left Fanlin speechless. Although these things were originally given to these mermaids, such behavior...
After a while, Fanlin felt something tugging on his ankle, and the movement was very slight.
It was a smaller fishman, seemingly a newborn.
It shook its tail, and then put a stone into Fan Lin's hand.
A transparent stone with a very good color, which can be used as a raw material for making magic crystals.
This seems to be a feedback to myself?
Fan Lin pointed at himself, and a series of bubbles came out of his mouth.
The little mermaid also responded with a series of bubbles, but this time the sound that reached Fan Lin's ears was not so sharp.
Mermaids are a music-loving race, and their voices are actually not unpleasant.
"Dear wizard...this is a gift for you."
That was probably what it meant. Fan Lin couldn't distinguish it very clearly, but he still put away the rare alchemy material.
In an instant, the entire mermaid tribe seemed to explode, and various sounds were densely noisy together. If it weren't for the patches of bubbles, Fan Lin would have doubted that he had returned to the hall of Hogwarts.
There is not much difference in this habit between humans.
The next time is the mermaid's reward. Herbs that are rare on land are the mermaid's most collected things.
They are also magical creatures. Naturally, mermaids can also vaguely feel the extraordinaryness of these things. However, in the mermaid's values, these herbs are probably just weeds that are stronger than seaweed. (To be continued)
