Chapter Twenty-Three: Ladies and Gentlemen, Listen to the Dragon!
Hearing the teenager call himself Tom Riddle, Skander couldn't help but frown.
Of course he didn't believe the kid's nonsense.
The reason is very simple, Skander had dealt with that man many times back then, had a long-term cooperation, and knew him well...... So know who the name Tom Riddle is talking about!
Speaking of Tom Riddle, Skander suddenly remembered one thing, that is, the Dark Lord still owes him money and has not paid it back!
Back then, Voldemort bought a batch of expensive magical creatures from him, but he didn't have time to pay for them...... It's dead!
People die but can't be settled, Skander also found Malfoy to ask for money at that time, but he didn't expect that the servant of the Dark Lord directly denied that he was a Death Eater, and said that he was not familiar with the Dark Lord, so let him not slander himself!
This wave of light changes face at the speed of light, and it can only be said that it ...... The master and servant are affectionate!
After so many years, Skander almost forgot about it, but he didn't expect that the young man in front of him called himself Tom Riddle, which reminded him of this bad debt.
It's so much fun!
Skander also remembered that Voldemort had said many times that he would not die and would come back no matter what happened to him.
It doesn't matter if Skander believes it or not, but since you call yourself Tom Riddle...... Can we settle the account first?
As long as you are willing to get married, you say you Merlin, and Lao Tzu will admit it!
Hearing Skander say that Voldemort owed money and did not pay it back, Rove first despised the Dark Lord in his heart, and then hurriedly said:
"What does Voldemort owe you money and what does it have to do with me, Tom Riddle?"
「……」
Skander's gaze stared at the young man, his gaze moved down, looking at the box in the young man's hand, he suddenly remembered Helen's words, squinted:
"You're Newt Scamander's grandson, aren't you?"
was broken by a mouthful, Rove did not feel the slightest embarrassment, nor did he continue to pretend to be stupid, and simply said:
"Oh, it looks like you and my grandfather know each other?"
"It's more than understanding." Skander took a deep breath and said, "We were on each other...... It left a deep mark."
Skander's left ear is gone, and many people think that it was lost by a magical creature, but only he knows that it was the man who cut it off!
Skander wanted revenge, and even wanted to find trouble with his grandson under Helen's reminder, but he didn't expect this kid to send it to the door by himself, which was really ...... What a surprise!
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Skander asked:
"So, kid, why did you trespass into my room tonight? Still in my tent? If you want to see a circus show, it won't start until tomorrow night."
"I'll give that dwarf a galleon and a sico." Rove shrugged and said, "He promised to sell me two magical creatures, which I was just picking."
"That money...... You just want to buy cats, leopards and horned camels, right?" Skander looked at the open cage, and he sneered:
"Do you think it's possible?!"
"How could it be?" Rove Fox was suspicious: "You don't know how to do business without integrity, do you?"
"I'm just a child, don't lie to me, I was bitten by a dog when I was a child...... the young man's eyes were as cold as a knife, and he laughed softly: "I'm crazy, even I'm afraid of myself!"
"I can give it to you." Skander stared at the box in Rove's hand and said with a greedy look, "But just leave your box behind."
He knew that Newt Scamander's box was special and had a lot of space inside...... It was extraordinarily large, containing countless magical creatures, and that was the thing he coveted the most.
The box in Newt's grandson's hand has the same effect.
"Want to?" Rove lifted the box with one hand, ticked it and said, "Get it yourself!"
"Don't worry, I have Yin corpses in this tent, let them ...... first" Skander's eyes were cold, and he smiled cruelly, "Play with you!"
He waved his wand, and the Yin corpses, who had just been ordered to suspend their attacks, pounced on the boy again.
Almost at the same time, Rove's mind moved, and he silently said, "The Ice Blade Arrow is missing!"
The air condensed instantly
A row of ice arrows, the young man raised his hand and let go, and a slender light that wiped the cold air flew out in a fan shape!
Cablo Dragon's magical talent is to lower the temperature, and Rove also got this magic after capturing the Cablo Dragon.
The Mayflower sails in the ocean, and there is a lot of water vapor in the air, which is combined with the horse-shaped water monster's ability to control water...... Rove can easily condense into ice.
Countless ice arrows spilled down, and the group of Yin Corpses was slow, and they didn't have time to dodge at all, and of course they wouldn't dodge, and they were directly shot.
The Yin Corpses were too dense, and there were even many ice arrows that pierced directly through the chests of the two Yin Corpses, making them string together like sugar gourds.
The black liquid slowly flowed out from the wound of the Yin corpse, like black snakes, corroding those ice arrows.
Their offensive was only halted for a moment, and they continued to rush tirelessly.
Rove didn't care, he raised his hand and drew a half-arc, another row of ice arrows, layer by layer like a fan quickly spreading.
He said calmly, "Shoot."
The rain of arrows rushed away again.
After five consecutive rounds of shooting, the Yin corpse in the front row has become the remains of severed limbs.
But even so, even with only one arm and one head left, they still swayed violently on the floor, squirming and crawling towards the boy.
This is the terrible thing about the Yin Corpses, they are long dead, they belong to the enemy who will never fall.
Skande, who was watching from a distance, was also shocked in his heart, this kid clearly did not use a magic wand, but he could summon ice arrows...... Spell caster without a wand?
But how old is he?!
And that round of ice arrows with ease is not an offensive that he can perform at his age.
Could it be that this kid has some magical creature around him and is secretly protecting him? Or maybe it's an alchemical item?!
Skander was a little unsure, but he knew that this kid's way of dealing with the Yin Corpse was useless, and it seemed that he was too young and lacked combat experience.
Taking advantage of Rove's attention to the Yin corpse, Skander, who was hiding in the corner, suddenly raised his wand, and a red light shot insidiously at Rove's back.
"Passed out!"
Luo obviously didn't turn around, but as if he had eyes in his back, he immediately leaned back and stuck to the ground, which was able to dodge a tricky sneak attack.
In the distance in the cage, the manic bark of a swallowtail dog was heard, and Scander heard the swallowtail reminder, his expression changed drastically, and he ducked to one side.
An ice arrow swept by, not piercing Skander's head, but still slicing across his face, blood bursting like flowers.
"It's a pity." Rove stood up and said, "Didn't kill you."
Skander didn't wipe the blood on his face, and frowned, "You deliberately showed a flaw to attract me to make a move, and then attacked me while my attention was on you?"
"Not too stupid." The corners of Rove's mouth curled, "If it weren't for that swallowtail dog reminding you, you'd be dead."
"But how did you escape my stun curse?" Skander wondered.
The spider sense of the eight-eyed giant spider is enough to make Rove aware of the danger in advance; And Jin Feixia's soft joint skills can allow him to make unimaginably difficult dodge postures.
However, Rove didn't explain, just sarcastically, "Any first-year student at Hogwarts can dodge your weak attack!"
Skander said in a high-pitched voice, "Boy, you me off."
"So what?" Rove smirked and said, "Come here, don't just hide in the corner, you can't kill me by relying on these yin corpses."
"It's okay, the Yin Corpse is just an appetizer." Scander laughed, "You don't think you're going to be able to get out of here tonight, do you?
You can only be blamed for being too arrogant and breaking into my tent...... I'm wondering if you're going to be able to change someone?"
"Poisonhorn Beast...... Cystic leopard ...... Manticore...... Emperor Python ...... Or the Eight-Eyed Spider?" Skander pretended to think for a moment, his face was full of gloom, and he sneered, "Or do you want to go to both?"
"Five against one...... Don't say I'm bullying you,
After all, you're the grandson of Mr. Newt Scamander, so wouldn't it be easy to deal with these magical creatures?"
The ice arrows were still firing, slowing down the attack of the Yin Corpses.
With his hands in his pockets, Rove smiled flirtatiously and asked, "Can you choose a fire dragon then?"
Skander snorted in confusion, not knowing what the boy meant.
"Mr. Skander, did your circus not have a fire dragon, or was it too destructive to let it go, and burned down this tent?"
Rove grinned, and he said, holding the box in one hand:
"Then I'll ask you one more thing, guess...... Is there a fire dragon here?"
Skander's face was gloomy, and he didn't believe that Newt would take a dangerous dragon...... Put it in a box for a twelve- or thirteen-year-old!
That box was just a "toy", and at most it contained some magical creatures that were not very powerful, and it was impossible to have such a dangerous creature as a fire dragon.
When pigs fly!
This kid is bluffing!
Rove, who looked harmless to humans and animals, slowly opened the box, and he said with a bright smile:
"Let me show you my Norwegian Scrabble, don't say I'm bullying you, after all...... You are Mr. Scander of the Mystery Circus."
Rove whistled, and a moment later, a behemoth flew out of the box, spreading its huge wings like night, and its shadow fell to the ground.
"Gentlemen, please listen to the dragon!"
"Roar, roar!
