Hogwarts: I, Tom, am not the Dark Lord

Before coming in, Newt asked him to put down the folders and several large storage bags, because space within space would pose a great risk, and small expansion bags would be safe.

After the three unicorns came in, they all ran happily towards the distance, and Usagi had already flown out, making dragon roars from time to time, causing groups of magical animals to panic.

Ignoring them for the moment, Newt took Tom on a broomstick and flew towards a curtain. After crossing the curtain, they came to a rainforest area. The climate became warmer and more humid.

This is Newt's daily job. He has to go around all the areas every day to check the condition of the "residents". If he encounters an injured or dying magical animal, he will not help immediately, but observe them first to see if they have the ability to save themselves.

For example, now, a Kneazle seemed to have injured its leg, but Newt just watched for a moment, made sure it could handle itself, and then took Tom away, explaining to him during the flight:

"To keep magical animals wild and able to survive in the wild, I'm not sure I can protect them forever. Their offspring will inherit this wildness. Long-term captivity will cause them to lose their instincts and gradually degenerate."

Tom asked, "If there's a fight between different tribes, or even death, will you intervene?"

The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "Generally speaking, I wouldn't."

"This is the law of nature. I cannot disrupt the cycle of the ecological chain. A momentary kindness may lead to greater disaster."

"Just like the Mortra rats, they feed on foxes and demonic elves. They are both magical animals. How can I take sides?"

"That must have been painful," Tom grinned.

If it were him, he would definitely have his own biases and choose to help the side he likes, but Newt put himself in a higher position and maintained balance with a perspective that was almost like God's.

In response to Tom's words, Newt just smiled and didn't answer.

During the patrol, Newt also taught Tom how to construct a world of his own. Many theories opened Tom's eyes, and his credits increased rapidly.

Newt is very humble. His traceless extension spell is also very powerful, at least much stronger than Tom's current one.

But what is even more exaggerated is that this space splicing technology has reached an unprecedented level.

It may be a bit disrespectful to those immortal legends to say this, at least among the King of the Century, Andros, Grindelwald, Dumbledore, and Voldemort, they are not as good as Newt in this regard.

Today's patrol ended when Newt gave a snowman some cold medicine in the last ice and snow space.

The two then went back to watch Newt examine the unicorn.

The unicorns still refused to allow any male except Tom to approach them. Newt was no stranger to this situation, so his so-called inspection was to let the unicorns complete some tests he had set.

There is one level for the two big unicorns and one level for the little guy himself.

Tom controlled various props to fly in the sky and soon completed it.

Newt first demonstrated it himself. The level he designed was a bit like the cross-country training for special forces. A man in his nineties could complete it with nimble hands and feet, which made Tom's eyes widen.

After the presentation, it was the unicorn’s turn.

Cross obstacles, sprint at full speed, release magic to destroy the target, and use the horn to insert into the hole of the wooden barrel.

Soon, all three unicorns completed a round of testing. Newt's expression became more and more serious during the process, and Tom's heart began to lift as well.

"Master Newt...are they alright?"

"It's not a big problem..." Newt shook his head slightly, which made Tom breathe a sigh of relief, and then continued:

"But there are quite a few minor problems. To sum it up, they're just too lazy. Although they're in excellent physical condition, far exceeding their peers, they're too inactive, barely making the most of their abilities. If this continues, they'll likely develop illnesses, like... obesity."

Tom: “….”

Chapter 121: Arizona Reservation, a Shining Figure on the Horizon

Tom never expected that he would raise three lazy bugs.

Looking at the unicorns half-kneeling on the ground to rest after completing the test, Tom blushed rarely and went up to hit one of them aggressively.

It's really embarrassing to bring shame to other people's homes.

"Still slacking off! Get moving! When you reach the standard set by Master Newt, I'll give you Patronus to eat."

"Woo~Woo!"

The three little ones immediately refused. Life is so wonderful, eating and sleeping every day, so why do they need to exercise?

But Tom was immune to the cuteness now, and he pushed and shoved them to run.

His master studies hard day and night and runs around outside, but you guys have developed diseases of affluence.

Is this right? !

Newt looked at Tom's frustrated look and shook his head in amusement.

This is the disadvantage of keeping them as pets. If you pamper them too much, their wildness will be worn away. But it is easy to solve. As long as Tom is determined, the three unicorns will be able to return to normal before he leaves the United States.

Newt used local materials and customized special rations according to the unicorn's current condition. Tom watched Newt busying around and suddenly thought of Professor Oak and the silly thing.

The idiot is just trying to seduce Pokémon everywhere, Professor Oak is the real breeder.

However, Tom was not idle after looking around for a while. This place was not only a paradise for magical animals, but also a paradise for herbs. Originally, magical animals and magical herbs had a symbiotic and companionship relationship. The species here in Newt were more comprehensive than those in the Forbidden Forest. There were many herbs and special materials that made Tom jealous.

With Newt's permission, Tom started his treasure hunt. It was like letting the Niffler into a vault. When he saw something good, Tom wanted to hold it in his arms, no matter whether he needed it or not, and he couldn't control his hands.

The only thing the brain can do is to persuade the hands to show mercy and not grab them all.

In this way, Tom was busy until Tina came to call them for dinner in the evening, and then the two of them left the small world.

The old lady now had a look of dissatisfaction on her face. "Tom, you can't be like Newt, running around in box 267 all day and not interacting with people. You're not a Hufflepuff, so how can you get along with this old man?"

"Because love for magical creatures knows no house."

Tom said something that made Newt smile and the old lady's eyebrows raise. Fortunately, the boy quickly made amends: "But I'm not as philanthropic as Uncle Newt. I only like a few kinds of magical beasts. I just spent a lot of time collecting materials today."

Tina was finally satisfied. "Take whatever materials you like. If you can't find any, you can ask Newt for help. Go out more tomorrow and don't stay at home all the time."

Tom nodded in agreement; he did intend to go out for a walk.

Since we are going abroad, we naturally have to bring some souvenirs back for the little witches, and take a look at the landmark buildings as a travel check-in.

But the next day, Tom was scratching his head in silence.

He was so stupid. What souvenirs could he buy from a country whose history was shorter than that of a British cookbook? Should he buy leaves?

Isn’t this nonsense?

However, beneath those towering skyscrapers are dirty streets and a large number of homeless people. It is not as prosperous and shocking as it looks from a distance.

He had essentially wasted a whole day outside, and in the end he could only buy a few Transformers and a few dolls as commemorative gifts.

But Tom doesn't plan to give it away just like that. Instead, he will use magic to transform it, otherwise it will be too ugly to be presented.

Well, the Transformers were bought for himself, and who could resist an Autobot that could transform?

Back at Newt's house, Tom got good news - they can go to the Thunderbird Sanctuary tomorrow.

Entering the protected area is not an easy thing. You must first apply to the Magical Congress of the United States and undergo strict review and approval before entering. Applicants must have no criminal record and no history of poaching or arbitrarily killing magical animals. In addition, in order to enter, you must obtain reasons recognized by the Magical Congress.

It takes quite a while to go through this whole process.

Fortunately, the applicant this time is Newt, who is not only a master expert in magical creatures, but also has a world-renowned reputation.

Even if the reviewers suspected that the President of the Magical Congress would become a poacher, they would never suspect that Newt Scamander would do such a thing. In addition, he had connections in the court. Tina not only became the head of the Auror team, but also trained a large group of apprentices. Naturally, all the approvals were passed as quickly as possible.

Sure enough, behind every successful man there is a woman who can live off him. Dumbledore once had this opportunity, but unfortunately he gave it up.

So he's kind of a failure...

"How do we get there?" asked Tom.

Newt took out two pieces of paper and said, "I've already bought my plane ticket for tomorrow."

"Compared to Floo powder and Portkeys, planes are much slower, right?" Tom twitched his lips, feeling that there was something wrong with Newt.

Newt sighed and shook his head. "I'm getting old and can't handle the excitement of traveling. Planes are great. We can even sleep on them."

Tom thought he was talking nonsense. If there was any problem with the unicorn, Newt would be fine. But the plane ticket was already bought, so he couldn't say anything.

On the morning of departure, Tom placed Usagi in Newt's little world and let her live independently for a few days.

This was also the advice Newt gave. The dragon power on Tom was very weak when it was restrained. Creatures of the Thunderbird's level would no longer be afraid of being affected. But Usagi was different. Although this little guy was not yet an adult, his dragon power had already exceeded that of an ordinary fire dragon. It was better for him to stay at home and not cause trouble.

Considering that it was another 300-jin meteorite, Usachi reluctantly agreed.

Before leaving, Newt took out a spare suitcase and stuffed some strange magical animals into it. These magical animals were not only suppliers of local raw materials, but also Newt's bodyguards.

You never know how many magical creatures you're facing when you face one Scamander.

After finishing all the preparations, Tom and Newt went out and took a taxi to Ken** Airport.

After more than five hours of flight, they finally arrived in Phoenix, the capital of Arizona. Newt then grabbed Tom's shoulders, used Apparition twice, and appeared in a small town.

The town is covered with yellow earth, and the crisscrossing streets are covered with crooked houses. There are many people in the town. The weather is hot, and many people wear cowboy hats on their heads to block the sun.

Tom even saw some people with hunting rifles on their waists and magic wands in their hands. They were obviously powerful dual cultivators.

Newt led the way and quietly introduced Tom, "This is Thunderbird Town. It's named after the Thunderbird."

"Besides thunderbirds, there are many other magical animals in the Thunderbird Sanctuary. Many families and companies have established breeding bases and material processing factories here. Coupled with the increasing number of tourists who come here for its reputation, this purely wizarding town has gradually formed. It can be said that this is the center of wizarding in the American Southwest. Even the Magical Congress has set up an office here."

Tom nodded. This was understandable.

The wizarding population in North America far exceeds that in the United Kingdom, even several times larger. Coupled with the vast territory, the control of a Magical Congress will certainly decline, so it is not surprising that each region has a center.

"I have a property here, and we'll live here for the next period of time."

As Newt was speaking, he noticed that Tom had stopped and was looking in the direction he was looking. His old face suddenly turned red.

"That...that's..."

Tom smiled and said, "It's not something to be ashamed of. You should be proud of it."

It turned out that what Tom saw was a tall brass statue of a thunderbird with its head bowed and a young wizard holding a suitcase and reaching out to touch him.

It goes without saying that this is to commemorate the time when Newt saved a thunderbird from poachers.

"They're making such a fuss." Newt said in a low voice, looking very unnatural: "I just did what I should do..."

"You're just too modest," Tom shook his head. "Doing what you should do is a rare quality. What's more, the fact that it's just something you think should be done is unbelievable to many people."
