Chapter 81 Newt Arrives
The already dilapidated apartment, amidst a continuous series of collisions, became even more precarious.
Dust incessantly fell from the walls, and wood chips from the rafters began to sway precariously.
A huge hole was smashed into Jacob's street-facing wall by a magical creature, and broken bricks were scattered all over the floor, exposing the interior of the house to the street.
Upon hearing the violent noise, the surrounding residents rushed out of their homes, their faces filled with terror and unease.
They could clearly feel the oppressive sensation brought by the vibrations.
They looked at Jacob's rundown apartment with incredulous eyes, their already worried hearts growing even more fearful.
They all ran out onto the street, screaming loudly.
Some were searching for lost items, others were trying to contact their relatives; their voices intertwined, forming a chaotic din.
"This must be a gas explosion! It's terrible, we can't live here anymore!" a middle-aged woman in pajamas said with a trembling voice, her face filled with panic.
She held her child tightly, as if afraid that all this would happen again.
"No, this is definitely not a gas explosion! I didn't smell any gas at all! Look, there are no signs of a gas leak here!" a young man with glasses retorted.
He was a teacher, and he used his professional knowledge to refute the groundless conjectures of others.
He pointed to the broken stones on the ground and the smashed wall, his tone very firm: "This must be destruction caused by some powerful force; I'm afraid it's not an ordinary accident!"
The police who arrived at the scene also began to investigate the surrounding area.
They cordoned off the accident site with various caution tapes, soothing the panicked residents in their own way.
They were also very troubled, as such explosion incidents were not the first.
And the true victim of all this, Jacob, sat quietly in the room, looking at his home, which resembled a ruin.
His chubby face was filled with helplessness and despair.
He sighed softly, his already somewhat confused heart becoming even more chaotic.
"What a terrible day!" he muttered to himself, with a hint of self-mockery in his tone, as if lamenting his tragic fate.
"I shouldn't have gone to the bank today; if I had gone tomorrow, maybe I wouldn't have encountered something like this."
Not only did he fail to get the loan, but he also lost his only place to live.
Moon looked at Jacob's dejected appearance and gently patted Jacob's sturdy body, saying calmly, "No, Jacob, today is not your unlucky day, but your luckiest day, and the beginning of your happiness."
Jacob heard Moon's words, and he looked up, gazing at Moon with a puzzled expression.
His mouth twitched slightly; he couldn't understand why Moon would say such a thing.
He had clearly lost everything, so how could it be the beginning of luck?
He pointed to the room, which was like a ruin, his tone full of helplessness: "Look at this place; I don't even have a place to live.
How can there be any luck or happiness?"
He felt that the child in front of him must be joking, or perhaps, he was simply a madman!
Moon looked at Jacob's frustrated expression and smiled slightly, his tone becoming serious.
He pointed to himself, then to Jacob's pocket, and said in a thought-provoking tone, "Do you remember? At the bank, what I said to you, do you remember that I said I knew your future?"
Jacob heard Moon's words, and his body trembled violently.
He touched his messy hair, and the scene that had happened at the bank flashed through his mind.
He finally remembered what Moon had said when he first met him.
He suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with shock and doubt.
He asked Moon in a trembling voice, "You… do you really know my future? You said my loan would fail? Is this… is this really not a coincidence?"
He seemed unable to believe that Moon could actually predict the future.
Moon smiled slightly and nodded to Jacob, his tone full of confidence: "Of course, Jacob, I know everything about you, and I know what is about to happen to you!"
He wanted Jacob to believe him, only then could he better comfort this chosen one.
He patted Jacob's shoulder again, wanting to soothe his restless heart, and continued, "Moreover, I also want to tell you that today you will also meet the love of your life, and she will eventually be with you until the end of the world!"
Jacob was very frustrated now, and Queenie was his destined other half.
He wanted to use Jacob's desire for love to distract him.
Jacob heard Moon's words, and his originally very frustrated expression instantly became excited.
His eyes sparkled like stars, radiating dazzling light, and his body began to tremble excitedly.
He looked at Moon with expectant eyes and asked in a trembling voice, "The love of my life? Today? Me? Really?"
He couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, seemingly already beginning to yearn for that beautiful love.
Just as Moon was about to nod in confirmation, at this moment, Dadada~ a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the hallway.
The footsteps grew closer and closer, finally stopping in front of Jacob's door.
Immediately after, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
A man and a woman walked into Jacob's room.
The man was wearing a dark trench coat, his eyes full of worry, and he held a wand in his hand.
The woman was wearing a light-colored robe, her face filled with vigilance and anxiety, her gaze quickly scanning the room, as if searching for something.
They said nothing, and they completely ignored the presence of Jacob and Moon.
The man raised his wand and waved it at the dilapidated ruins of the house.
The already shattered room, as if time had flowed backward, was restored to its original state in the blink of an eye!
He then quickly walked to the bed, eagerly picked up the smashed suitcase, and began to examine it carefully.
And Moon, looking at the suddenly appearing man and woman, understood that they were Newt and Tina, whom he had been waiting for.
Chapter 82 Tina
Tina looked at Newt, who was sitting on the bed, carefully inspecting the battered suitcase.
Her brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of helplessness was in her eyes, her tone somewhat reproachful: "That crazy Niffler escaped again?"
Her clear voice echoed in the small apartment.
Newt flinched at Tina's scolding, a sheepish smile appearing on his face.
He looked up, glanced at Tina, then silently lowered his head, his voice becoming subdued, as if apologizing for his oversight: "P-Perhaps... yes..."
As he spoke, he gently stroked the suitcase, his movements soft, as if he were tending to his most cherished treasure.
Moon watched the scene unfold.
Newt, as he understood him, was indeed a very introverted and timid person.
Though his heart was full of passion for magical creatures, he wasn't good at dealing with people.
Tina, on the other hand, was completely different, possessing a decisive personality and a strong sense of responsibility.
Moon was about to speak, to break the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
He cleared his throat gently, pointed to the Murtlap still suspended in the air by Time-Space Power, and said in a calm tone: "Hey, shouldn't you two check on this Murtlapfirst? It's not just some ordinary pet; it bites!"
There was a hint of teasing in his tone, wanting to attract Newt's attention.
Newt flinched at Moon's words, as if only just realizing Moon's presence.
A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.
He looked up at the Murtlap suspended in mid-air, his face full of confusion.
He carefully observed the Murtlap, his eyes filled with worry: "Th-this is...? What happened? It looks strange, completely motionless, not like petrification."
His tone was full of doubt and concern; he was very worried about the Murtlap's current state.
Moon, seeing Newt's concern, gently waved his hand, releasing the "Time-Space Power" he had placed on the Murtlap.
The Murtlap, previously suspended in the air, instantly regained its freedom.
The moment its body touched the ground, it became even more agitated.
It roared loudly, trying to attack those around it.
Newt's face changed drastically when he saw the agitated Murtlap.
He quickly opened his suitcase and put the Murtlap back inside.
His reactions were swift, and the worried look on his face gradually disappeared.
This was the normal state of a Murtlap as he knew it.
Tina watched all of this, then looked at Moon with a puzzled expression, her voice turning cold, her tone full of scrutiny: "Young man, are you a Wizard too? I don't recall any records of young Wizards nearby, and it's still school term; no young Wizards should be here!"
She could clearly feel the magical fluctuations emanating from Moon, but she couldn't understand how such a young Wizard could possess such powerful magic.
She began to suspect Moon's identity; she knew this young man must be hiding some secrets.
Moon smiled slightly.
He didn't evade Tina's questioning, but responded in a very natural tone: "Yes, my name is Moon White. I'm from London and currently attend Hogwarts. I just finished my first year."
His tone carried a hint of pride and a touch of friendliness, which would also help bridge the gap with Newt.
And Newt, upon hearing Tina question Moon, and Moonmention attending Hogwarts, his eyes lit up.
He looked at Moon and asked with a hint of curiosity: "Hogwarts? You're a Hogwarts student too?"
His tone was filled with excitement; he hadn't expected to meet a fellow student in New York.
Moon nodded and replied: "Of course, I'm also in Gryffindor."
When Newt heard that Moon was also a Gryffindorstudent, his smile grew wider, and his eyes sparkled with excitement.
He was about to talk to Moon about school matters, but he was interrupted by Tina's cold voice.
"Enough! Newt! This is not the time for reminiscing!" Tina's cold voice instantly silenced Newt.
Tina's gaze locked onto Moon again.
She scrutinized him carefully, as if trying to discern something from his face.
Her already stern face became even more serious, and her tone grew colder: "If you are truly a Hogwarts student, then you should be in London. Why are you here?"
Moon knew that Tina was highly vigilant, and her questions were very sharp.
Moon shrugged, a helpless expression on his face, and said in an innocent tone: "Miss Tina, I don't know why I ended up here. I was originally undergoing an inspection at the London Ministry of Magic, but suddenly I was sucked into a black hole. I don't know why, but I ended up here."
His tone was sincere; everything he said was true, except that it happened decades later at the London Ministry of Magic.
After hearing Moon's explanation, Tina's brows furrowed tightly.
Her eyes were full of suspicion, but she couldn't prove whether Moon was lying or not.
She could only temporarily suppress her doubts; she had more important things to do.
She took a deep breath, knowing that this was not the time to dwell on these matters.
She had to act quickly to complete her assigned task.
She turned her gaze to Newt and Jacob, her tone becoming firm: "Alright! The three of you, follow me."
Her tone was filled with undeniable authority.
Newt sighed helplessly at Tina's words.
He gave Tina an innocent look, his eyes full of dissatisfaction: "I don't understand why I have to go with you? I still have many things to do."
He knew that these incidents were indeed caused by his fantastic magical creatures.
But it was not his intention.
Now he could only silently endure it.
Tina looked at Newt's somewhat aggrieved expression, and she too felt a wave of helplessness.
She knew Newt's personality, so she could only suppress her anger.
She said in a commanding tone: "Stop talking nonsense! Come with me now!"
It seemed she wouldn't allow Newt any rebuttal.
She turned, grabbed Jacob's arm, and said in an undeniable tone: "Let's go!"
She knew that Jacob had to come with them to testify about this incident.
After speaking, she cast a warning glance at Moon, signaling him to follow quickly.
She was going to take these two, these incomprehensible individuals, back to the Ministry of Magic!
Newt looked at Tina with a speechless expression.
He seemed to want to object but didn't know how to speak, so he could only helplessly follow behind her.
Chapter 83 Unexpected Gains
As it was late, Tina ultimately decided to take Moon, Newt, and Jacob back to her apartment first.
Her sharp eyes occasionally scanned the three of them, as if still wary of something.
After they entered the apartment, a warm sensation instantly enveloped them, dispelling the lingering chill on their bodies.
Moon also noticed that the apartment's decor was simple and cozy, without too many elaborate embellishments, only some simple landscape paintings and old photographs hanging on the walls, giving off an unpretentious feeling.
A stunning woman, wearing a thin nightgown, with short golden hair styled in large waves, and a fiery figure, was sitting on the sofa.
When she saw the four people suddenly appear, a brilliant smile bloomed on her face.
Her gaze swept back and forth between Moon, Newt, and Jacob, filled with curiosity.
Tina looked at her sister, Queenie, still only in her nightgown, and her brow furrowed slightly.
She knew her sister could sometimes be a bit casual, but with guests in the house now, she still needed to remind Queenie to mind her appearance.
She turned to Newt and Moon, introducing them, "Gentlemen, this is my sister, Queenie."
Her tone remained somewhat serious, as if she wanted to quickly end this awkward meeting.
Newt's body trembled violently when he heard Tina's introduction.
He quickly turned his head towards the window, seemingly not daring to meet Queenie's gaze.
An awkward smile also appeared on his face, and his light brown hair seemed a bit disheveled.
His hand, which had been tightly clutching his briefcase, tightened slightly, as if he was uneasy.
As for Jacob, the moment he saw Queenie, his eyes instantly lit up.
He stared blankly at Queenie, a look of infatuated delight on his face, as if completely captivated by Queenie's beauty.
His body also became somewhat stiff.
Moon looked at Queenie, sighing softly in his heart.
Queenie possessed powerful Legilimency abilities, and her perfect figure and charming smile were enough to conquer any man.
No wonder Jacob fell in love with Queenie at first sight.
Jacob was truly lucky.
He looked up at Jacob, who was standing there like an idiot, completely infatuated.
These fated lovers had finally met.
Seeing Queenie's lack of reaction, Tina's brows furrowed even tighter.
She reminded her with a slightly displeased tone, "Queenie! Shouldn't you put on another layer of clothing?"
Her tone carried a hint of reproach.
She felt Queenie's attire was truly inappropriate, and she had to make her rein it in.
Queenie, hearing Tina's words, showed an embarrassed expression.
She winked at Moon, Jacob, and Newt, then waved her wand, and the clothes nearby gracefully dressed themselves onto her body.
She smiled, looking at the infatuated Jacob, and threw him a flirtatious glance.
Her actions made Jacob even more disoriented.
Moon looked at Jacob, who was still standing there dumbfounded, and patted his shoulder firmly.
He whispered in Jacob's ear in a low voice, "That's right, she is the love of your life!"
Jacob's body trembled violently.
He instantly snapped out of his trance.
He looked up at Moon with eyes full of excitement, his voice trembling, "Re… really?"
His heart was filled with anticipation and also unease.
Moon nodded heavily at Jacob, a knowing smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
He knew that the story between Jacob and Queenie was about to unfold.
Suddenly, Moon's heart trembled violently.
He could feel that the spatial-temporal imprint he had left on the note for Credence had been brutally destroyed.
He analyzed in his mind that the note would not be destroyed by Credence himself, as it bore his name, and he wouldn't do that before confirming its authenticity.
Nor would it be destroyed by his adoptive mother, as she was an ordinary person and lacked that ability.
There was only one possibility: Grindelwald!
Thinking of this, Moon's heart instantly became excited.
He didn't want to encounter Grindelwald during the day because his magic was almost depleted.
He was on an invincible path, not a reckless one.
Now, his magic had broken through the 100,000 mark.
Although it wasn't enough to travel back in time, he was fearless now.
For the cultivation of an invincible will, what he lacked was a true battle between strong individuals, a battle that would allow him to unleash his full power!
He would use Grindelwald to prove his strength!
He would use Grindelwald as a stepping stone on his path to invincibility!
The magic within his body also became extraordinarily active with his emotional fluctuations.
His originally calm mind also began to boil.
He could no longer suppress the restlessness in his heart.
He wanted to quickly go and fight Grindelwald, to temper his will!
Just as Moon's thoughts surged like a tide, a strong gust of wind swept around his body.
The gale was like a huge vortex, engulfing the entire room.
The objects in the room were scattered everywhere, the portraits on the walls began to shake violently, and even the burning flames seemed to lose control, leaping constantly.
This sudden change caught the four people in the room somewhat off guard.
Tina and Queenie's bodies began to sway precariously in the strong wind.
They could only tightly grasp tables or walls nearby to barely steady themselves.
Newt and Jacob immediately embraced the women beside them, using their bodies to shield them from the strong wind.
Their clumsy actions, however, further highlighted their kind nature.
After the storm lasted for a moment, it slowly calmed down under Moon's control.
The room returned to tranquility once more.
Everyone also recovered from the thrilling scene they had just experienced.
Tina looked at Moon with shocked eyes.
Her calm heart was once again stirred by Moon's power.
She could hardly imagine that a twelve-year-old boy could possess such immense strength.
She asked in a trembling voice, "Mr. White, what… what exactly is going on? Who… who exactly are you?"
Her heart was filled with shock and fear, as if she realized that she was not facing an ordinary young Wizard, but an unfathomable existence.
Newt also looked at Moon with worried eyes.
He could feel the powerful energy contained within Moon's body, and he also seemed to realize Moon's extraordinary nature.
His heart was full of questions: "Moon, are… are you alright?"
His tone was filled with concern, as he feared that Moonmight be harmed by the sudden surge of power.
Moon ignored everyone's shocked expressions.
He took a deep breath.
He could clearly feel the boiling magic within him; he couldn't wait any longer.
He wanted to quickly get to Credence's side.
He wanted to personally verify Grindelwald's power!
He said to the four in a calm tone, "I sense that a very powerful being is nearby.
I must go out and meet him.
You all stay here, don't wander around, and remember to save me some food."
With that, his figure flashed with a silver light, instantly disappearing from the room.
Only the four were left, looking at each other.
They completely failed to understand everything Moon had done.
They could only stand there dumbfounded, replaying everything that had just happened.
Jacob's chubby face showed a bewildered expression.
He asked in a slightly confused tone, "Just now… why was there a typhoon just now? And where did little Moon go?"
He scratched his head; all he could feel was chaos.
He simply couldn't understand what had happened.
Queenie, on the other hand, looked at the foolish Jacob, who was protecting her, with an infatuated smile.
She held Jacob's arm tightly, her eyes filled with love and anticipation.
Tina and Newt looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
They still couldn't believe that Moon possessed such immense power.
Chapter 84 Credence Bile
Credence Barebone,
walked through the crowded streets of New York,
his figure thin and lonely.
His steps were mechanical and slow.
He clutched tightly to the crumpled stack of flyers in his hand.
His dim eyes constantly scanned the hurried passersby around him.
He seemed to be searching for the existence he yearned for in the crowd,
but his heart was filled with confusion.
He didn't know where he should go,
or if he had any family.
He hung his head,
letting the busy pedestrians
collide with his body.
His steps staggered,
as if he had grown accustomed to being ignored by the crowd,
and accustomed to being abandoned by this world.
He just silently handed out the flyers in his hand.
His slightly hoarse voice,
was incredibly faint amidst the noisy streets:
"Join us, the Second Salemers... We will eradicate all Wizards..."
He was like a puppet forgotten in a corner,
his eyes devoid of light,
his face full of confusion and loss,
unsure of where he should go.
Bang~
A man in a hurry
suddenly bumped into Credence.
The man seemed to be rushing somewhere.
His steps were quick,
his face anxious.
His body collided with Credence's,
making Credence stumble.
"Oh! I'm so sorry! I... I'm in too much of a hurry, my wife is about to give birth, I have to rush to the hospital!"
The man nervously helped Credence up,
speaking in an apologetic tone.
His movements were quick and flustered,
his face filled with tension.
He was afraid he would delay and miss the moment his child was born.
He didn't notice Credence's appearance,
he just quickly patted the dirt off Credence's clothes.
He had limited time,
he had to leave here quickly.
Credence looked up,
his gaze falling on the anxious man's face.
He could clearly feel
the joy and excitement in the man's eyes.
He clutched the flyer tightly in his hand.
In a low and slightly hoarse voice,
he asked the man: "Do... do you love your child?"
His tone was full of uncertainty.
He seemed to want to get a positive answer from the man.
He wanted to know
if the emotions the man possessed
were real or fake.
When the man heard Credence's question,
his body trembled violently. He stopped walking.
He looked at Credence with a puzzled gaze,
seemingly not understanding
why Credence would ask this question.
But he still blurted out without hesitation: "Of course! I love my child! Oh, of course! I also love my wife! They are my everything, my treasure!"
A happy and sweet smile appeared on his face,
his tone filled with love and pride.
Credence looked at the man's happy expression.
His heart felt as if it had been pricked.
He thought once again
of his parents, whose whereabouts were unknown.
His eyes also darkened,
a look of loss appearing on his face.
He lowered his head and said in an extremely faint voice: "I... I'm fine. You should go to the hospital quickly. Don't let your child wait anxiously..."
His tone was filled with sadness and envy.
When the man heard Credence say he was fine,
and then thought of his soon-to-be-born child,
his heart grew even more anxious.
He gave Credence an apologetic smile,
and then rushed towards the hospital.
His hurried footsteps also disappeared into the bustling street.
Credence watched the man's departing back.
His eyes were filled with bewilderment.
He lowered his head again and continued to hand out the flyers in his hand.
His small body
appeared so lonely.
That longing for family was always buried deep in his heart.
Just then,
Credence suddenly felt something
in his pocket that seemed about to fall out.
He subconsciously reached out
and fumbled in his pocket,
finding a crumpled piece of paper.
He unfolded the note in confusion.
The moment he saw the content of the note,
a familiar figure suddenly appeared before him.
It was Graves, whom he had always deeply revered.
His stern face
carried an undeniable authority.
His eyes,
like those of a hawk,
were sharp and oppressive.
Graves slightly raised his chin,
and gestured for Credence to follow.
Credence's hand
clutched the note tightly.
His heart was still filled with confusion,
but his body
unconsciously
followed Graves
into a dark alley nearby.
Inside the alley,
it was dark and damp.
The walls were covered with various stains.
In the air,
a decaying smell permeated.
Graves looked at Credence.
His deep eyes,
like a bottomless lake,
asked in a tempting tone: "Credence, any progress recently?"
He knew Credence had been trying to join the Wizarding World.
He wanted to use Credence's longing
to achieve his own goals.
Credence lowered his head.
His voice became low.
He shook his head,
his tone full of disappointment: "I... I'm still looking, Mr. Graves. There are hundreds of children under ten."
When Graves heard Credence's words,
an expression of displeasure appeared on his face.
Deep down,
he was impatient with Credence,
but he knew
he still needed to use Credence for now,
so he had to continue his disguise.
He slowly approached Credence,
his tone softening slightly.
He said in a beguiling voice: "Credence, don't give up. I believe in you, you will definitely find him."
"I saw that child, he possesses extremely powerful magic, and I also saw that child is very close to your adoptive mother, right nearby, and only you can gain that child's trust, you are the key."
He continued to speak in a gentle tone.
Credence looked up.
A glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.
He asked in a trembling voice: "Really? Mr. Graves, am I the only key?"
Hope ignited in his heart once again.
"Of course, Credence! You must believe me. You want to join the Wizarding World, and so do I. As long as you find that child, we will both get our wish."
After Graves finished speaking,
he walked out of the alley with his steady steps.
His hypocritical face
disappeared into the dark corner.
Credence also slowly walked out of the alley.
His heart
was filled with longing.
He tightly held the note in his hand,
wanting to open it,
yet somewhat hesitant.
He was afraid that knowing the content of the note
would destroy the hope he had so painstakingly rekindled.
He subconsciously opened a small gap in the note in his hand.
He wanted to clearly see what was written on the note.
And just then,
Grindelwald, disguised as Graves,
had just walked out of the alley.
He suddenly felt
an extremely powerful magic fluctuation appear in the alley.
That magic power was filled with a familiar aura.
That was what he had been looking for.
He instantly understood that the power was coming from Credence!
Chapter 85 Silently
Grindelwald, disguised as Graves, stood in a dimly lit alley.
His figure was shrouded in shadows, creating a sense of oppression and unease.
His brows were tightly furrowed, and his beast-like eyes were fixed on the direction of Credence.
His heart was filled with both shock and excitement.
He had never expected that the powerful Obscurus he had been searching for all this time was hidden right under his nose, and that person was Credence Barebone!
"It's truly unexpected, yet perfectly logical!" he murmured to himself, a slight smirk playing on his lips, revealing a playful smile.
His plan seemed to be developing in the direction he had hoped.
Just then, he suddenly felt a strange magical fluctuation coming from the darkness behind him.
He quickly turned around, his gaze instantly drawn to a piece of paper scattered on the ground.
He extended his slender fingers and picked up the note.
As his eyes fell upon the note, his pupils abruptly contracted, and his expression became unusually solemn.
His once calm heart was now churned by tumultuous waves.
This was because the note possessed an extremely faint temporal fluctuation.
He could clearly sense that the fluctuation was very subtle; if he hadn't possessed the ability to foresee the future, he probably wouldn't have noticed it at all.
On the note, in shaky handwriting, was a shocking line of text: "Hello, Credence Barebone, your true name is Aurelius Dumbledore."
When Grindelwald saw the name "Dumbledore," his heart trembled violently.
His face instantly lost all expression, and his blue eyes were filled with complex emotions.
He tightly clutched the note in his hand, his body trembling slightly from the intense emotional turmoil within him.
He hated Dumbledore.
He had once considered Dumbledore a confidant, a soulmate, yet Dumbledore had betrayed him!
But Dumbledore was also in his heart.
And now, the appearance of Dumbledore's nephew, who also wielded such a powerful Obscurus, made him feel that everything was just right.
A deep blue flame instantly appeared in his hand.
The flame, like a ghostly fire from hell, emitted a chilling coldness that made one's heart palpitate.
Without any hesitation, he placed the note in the blue flame.
The note instantly ignited, turning into a pile of ashes that scattered on the ground.
And the flame, with the disappearance of the note, gradually extinguished, as if nothing had ever happened.
The powerful magical fluctuation also vanished without a trace in an instant.
At this moment, Grindelwald no longer wore his previous hypocritical facade.
His face was filled with gloom, and his blue eyes radiated the light of ambition.
His heart had already made a decision: he would completely control Credence and have him finish Dumbledore.
Just as Grindelwald was still immersed in his thoughts, "Boom!"
A deafening explosion suddenly echoed in the alley.
A thick black mist, like a giant black wave, surged out from the depths of the alley.
The dense mist, carrying a powerful impact, slammed into the building opposite.
The once sturdy building was instantly struck with a huge hole, and bricks from the wall splattered like raindrops.
The window glass shattered into countless fragments, like a broken mirror.
But the black mist did not stop.
After impacting the building, it quickly changed direction, like an untamed beast, flying directly towards the New York City Hospital.
The powerful impact left the houses on both sides of the street in disarray, as if a hurricane had swept through them.
Cars parked along the road were overturned, and glass shards and car parts flew everywhere.
The scene was like the end of the world.
Grindelwald watched the black mist flying towards the hospital, a hint of an appreciative smile on his face.
That was Credence's power.
The stronger Credence's power, the greater his chance to finish Dumbledore, and the more he understood how correct his decision was.
He muttered to himself, "No wonder his Obscurus is so powerful; he has Albus's bloodline!"
A cold glint flashed in his already crazed eyes.
Credence's power must become a sharp weapon in his hands.
His figure flickered, disappearing from where he stood.
He transformed into a black afterimage and quickly pursued the direction the black mist had flown.
His heart was filled with excitement and anticipation.
He wanted to see Credence as soon as possible, to bring him to his side and conquer this world.
At this moment, Credence was completely consumed by his inner rage.
His confused and helpless heart was completely twisted by the sudden burst of power.
What he wanted to do was to find out his true identity, to find his family, to find his home.
His consciousness had been swallowed by darkness, and his former longing for a "home" had turned into an endless hatred for this world.
He was like an irrational beast, wantonly destroying everything around him.
And his only goal was to find the person who gave him the note!
However, he completely failed to notice the buildings he destroyed and the people who were harmed because of him.
At this moment, he was completely dominated by power!
His once kind heart also began to become incredibly twisted.
Meanwhile, the New York City Hospital, facing the sudden disaster, was like a fragile infant, completely unaware.
In a quiet ward, the anxious man who had rushed to the hospital was carefully holding his newborn child.
His face was beaming with a happy smile.
Looking at the child's tender little face, his heart was filled with joy and excitement.
His wife lay quietly on the hospital bed, a trace of fatigue on her face, but also filled with sweetness.
She also looked at her child, her eyes full of maternal love.
"Our child is so adorable!" the man said softly, his voice full of tenderness.
He placed his child next to his wife, wanting her to share this joy with him.
Boom~
A deafening roar suddenly sounded outside the hospital.
The enormous sound, like the end of the world, shook the entire hospital violently.
The glass windows shattered into pieces, like a broken mirror.
The child in the man's arms was startled by the sudden loud noise and began to cry loudly.
His small body also trembled slightly from fear.
The man's face instantly turned pale.
He quickly hugged the child, then turned to look out the window.
He also wanted to know what had happened.
However, when he saw the bizarre scene outside the window, his heart was instantly dominated by fear.
He saw a huge black mist, like a demon from hell, rampaging through the streets of New York.
Everywhere it passed turned into ruins.
The mist was flying towards the hospital at an extremely fast speed.
And he was even more terrified to discover that the direction of the mist seemed to be locking onto his ward.
It was rushing straight towards his location!
He felt death approaching him step by step!
With a pale face, he turned around, his body trembling uncontrollably.
He wanted to push his wife and child out of this place, but found that his body had lost control.
He could only watch helplessly as the black mist drew closer and closer to him.
Chapter 86 Preventing Tragedy
Moon used "Time Acceleration".
He pushed the magic power within his body to its limit, causing the surrounding flow of time to completely halt.
He moved like a ghost traversing through Time-Space Power, quickly shuttling through the streets of New York.
His figure flashed through the air, his footsteps like the wind, making no sound.
He could clearly feel his body becoming lighter and lighter, and his speed growing faster and faster.
He seemed to have transcended the shackles of space, able to freely control the passage of time.
He could clearly feel the consumption of magic power within his body, which, under the dual effects of "Infinite Magic Power" and "Spell Enhancement," was depleting at an extremely slow rate, causing him no burden at all.
While moving rapidly, he used "Time Perception" to sense Credence's location and the changes in the surrounding environment.
His heart was filled with anxiety; he worried that Credencemight do something irreversible.
He wanted to reach Credence as quickly as possible to prevent the tragedy that was about to erupt.
He knew he shouldn't interfere with Credence's destiny.
He shouldn't have given that note to Credence.
If not for his interference, perhaps everything wouldn't have turned out this way.
But he quickly cast these thoughts aside.
What he needed to do now was to minimize the harm.
He had to stop Credence from losing control and prevent the tragedy as much as possible.
His gaze swept over the damaged buildings, and he pondered inwardly.
He saw the collapsed houses, the torn streets, all proving the immense power of Credence, and making him realize even more the seriousness of Credence's continued rampage.
The power Credence was currently unleashing had completely exceeded the scope of an ordinary Obscurus.
The chaos and destructive power contained within it made him feel a trace of unease.
When Moon arrived near New York City Hospital, he saw a huge black mist rushing rapidly towards the hospital.
The aura emanating from the black mist was filled with violence and chaos, like a demon from hell, seemingly intent on completely devouring everything.
Credence had indeed lost control and was going to destroy the hospital.
He also clearly sensed several figures standing by the hospital window, one of whom was holding a child.
He wanted to escape from the hospital, but he had already been locked onto by Credence.
Moon's heart tightened.
If he didn't act soon, more people might lose their lives.
He no longer hesitated, unleashing the power within his body completely.
He accelerated to his limit, turning into a silver lightning bolt in the air.
He fully activated the Time-Space Power within his body.
His body, empowered by Time-Space Power, became even more ethereal and elusive.
His eyes, like stars, shone with a silvery-white light, and his original pupils transformed into silver vortexes.
He looked like an ancient deity, radiating a silver glow that inspired both awe and fear.
He raised his right hand and gently clasped it towards the enormous Obscurus that was about to crash into the hospital building.
His movement was gentle and elegant, as if caressing a delicate work of art, and his god-like eyes held an undeniable power.
Instantly, the huge black mist, which had been like a wild horse unbridled, suddenly came to a halt.
Its power, like a black hole, was completely suppressed.
Its massive body began to shrink rapidly, eventually transforming into a small, palm-sized black sphere, quietly suspended in mid-air.
The edges of the sphere continuously flickered with silver light, seemingly struggling to resist the power Moon had imposed.
Moon saw the Obscurus compressed into a black sphere.
His heart stirred, and the small sphere flew into the air, accurately heading in Moon's direction.
However, just as the black sphere was about to approach Moon, it suddenly became agitated and restless.
An even more powerful force erupted from within the black sphere.
It began to swell violently, seemingly trying to break free from its shackles and unleash its mighty power once again.
The black sphere, like a lit bomb, continuously twisted and deformed in the air.
The surrounding space also became distorted due to the eruption of this power.
The intense oppressive sensation even caused the surrounding air to hum.
Moon could feel Credence's power growing at an astonishing rate.
He knew Credence was overdrawing his life force.
He had originally intended to inform Credence in advance about the truth of his identity, hoping that Credence and his father, Aberforth Dumbledore, could have more time together, and to change his tragic fate as much as possible.
But Moon hadn't expected that his appearance would instead accelerate Credence's destruction.
He couldn't allow Credence to continue rampaging.
He had to find a better way to help Credence.
Thinking this, he extended his right hand and gently pointed at the impending black mist, his fingertip emitting a powerful silver light.
He decided not to forcefully suppress Credence with power anymore, but to use "Time-Space Power" to completely stretch the space around Credence.
He wanted to create an insurmountable distance between himself and Credence.
Instantly, the black mist seemed to be stretched, and the shockwave it released appeared infinitely elongated, becoming weak and feeble.
And Credence's body, no matter how hard he tried, could never get a step closer to Moon.
The distance between them seemed close at hand, yet it was as far as the ends of the earth.
He would never be able to touch Moon's body.
The enraged Credence, like a maddened beast, continuously charged at Moon.
His distorted face was filled with endless resentment and fury, and his hoarse voice carried an indescribable pain: "I'm going to kill you! I'm going to tear you to shreds!"
His roar echoed in the air, distorting the surrounding space.
Moon, however, stood like an unyielding mountain.
His figure remained quietly in place, his gaze calmly fixed on Credence.
He knew that Credence's current state had completely lost all reason.
He had to rescue him from his rage before he could have a real conversation with him.
Moon watched Credence continuously impacting the Time-Space Power barrier.
He spoke to Credence in a questioning tone: "Credence, didn't you see the note I wrote for you? Why do you want to rush into the hospital? Do you think hurting innocent people will help you find your family?"
His tone carried a hint of inquiry.
He knew that Credence was not an evil person; everything he did was due to his yearning for family affection.
His voice seemed to carry a powerful force, instantly piercing through Credence's chaotic thoughts.
The black mist, which had been continuously impacting the Time-Space Power barrier, suddenly stopped its rampage.
It seemed to have received some kind of summons, and began to continuously contract, seemingly touched by Moon's words, and gradually calmed down.
Moon knew his plan had succeeded.
He continued in a calm tone: "Look, there are many innocent people in the place you're attacking. And because of my note, you're attacking them, which will make their families lose them. Is this really what you want?"
Moon's words seemed to part the dark mist, allowing Credence to see his true purpose.
Upon hearing Moon's words, Credence's body trembled violently, and he stopped his meaningless attacks.
He continuously contracted and expanded in place, seemingly fighting against the chaotic power within him.
His body, filled with dark aura, also began to slowly calm down.
Finally, the black mist he had transformed into completely disappeared, replaced by a thin young man.
His face was pale, and his deep eyes were filled with pain and confusion.
He slowly said in a hoarse voice: "You... are you telling the truth? Is that really my name?"
His voice was filled with uncertainty; he was still incredibly confused about his identity.
Moon smiled faintly, a gentle smile on his face.
He knew that Credence's heart had finally begun to waver.
He reiterated with a firm tone: "Yes! Credence, your real name is Aurelius Dumbledore! Your father is Aberforth Dumbledore, and you also have an uncle, he is very famous, his name is Albus Dumbledore."
Chapter 87 Impossible
Credence Barebone stood on the dark streets of New York.
His dim eyes were filled with confusion and struggle.
His body trembled slightly from the violent fluctuations within him.
He seemed to be trying his best to control himself, to prevent the power within him from completely erupting.
He still remembered the brief but warm moment at the hospital earlier.
The happiness and sweetness emanating from that couple deeply stung his heart.
He yearned even more to have a warm home of his own, to feel the love of parents.
But he also felt that he was abandoned.
He had seen too many parents abandon their children; many of his younger sisters and brothers were abandoned.
Now someone told him he had a father and an uncle.
His gaze became even more confused, and his heart struggled even more.
He couldn't distinguish what was real and what was illusory.
He couldn't distinguish what was hope and what was despair.
He slowly raised his head, and his gaze involuntarily fell upon his tightly clenched left hand.
He seemed to want to figure out if the content written on the note was true, but the note was already gone.
"Credence, are you alright?"
A familiar yet deep voice suddenly rang in Credence's ear.
Hearing this voice, his body trembled violently.
A glimmer of hope rose within him.
It was Graves.
Only he encouraged him.
Only he respected him.
He was the only friend he trusted.
He would definitely help him.
Credence quickly looked up.
He saw Graves emerge from a dark alley nearby.
Grindelwald, disguised as Graves, still wore that false smile on his face.
However, his eyes were filled with a craving for Credence's power.
"It's wonderful that you can control it!"
Grindelwald smiled joyfully at Credence.
His tone became even gentler, as if he wanted to use this method to soothe Credence's restless heart.
He had been searching for that powerful Obscurus, and it turned out to be Credence standing before him.
He had always thought Credence was a Squib, but he never expected him to be an Obscurial who had lived past the age of ten!
He carefully observed Credence.
He found that Credence was still alone in the middle of the street.
A seductive smile once again appeared on his face.
He approached Credence step by step, his tone full of temptation and power: "Credence, do you know? You possess even greater power.
You can finally officially join the Wizarding World! You will be respected! All Wizards will respect you! Forever respected!"
He wanted to use the Wizarding World to tempt and completely capture Credence's heart.
He wanted Credence to be completely at his disposal.
He slightly opened his arms, as if to embrace Credence.
He wanted to gain Credence's trust through this intimate gesture.
He also wanted Credence to understand how much he valued him, how much he needed him.
He wanted to completely control Credence with his own ideology.
He wanted to turn Credence into the most important chess piece in his hand.
Meanwhile, Moon stood directly opposite Grindelwald, small in stature and perfectly hidden by Credence, silently listening to everything.
He could clearly feel the powerful magic emanating from Grindelwald.
It was a sense of oppression he had never felt before, a completely different style from Dumbledore.
Grindelwald, who was steadily approaching Credence, suddenly stopped.
His brows furrowed tightly.
He could feel a powerful magical fluctuation not far behind Credence.
That power felt both familiar and strange to him, yet it contained components he couldn't comprehend.
And this power made his heart feel a hint of unease.
"Who's there?!"
Grindelwald quickly moved to the side, his sharp gaze sweeping behind Credence.
His tone became cold and wary.
Moon's figure also appeared in Grindelwald's line of sight.
His lips curved slightly upwards, revealing a meaningful smile.
His voice was clear and calm: "Mr. Grindelwald, hello! I've been waiting for you too! I'm truly delighted to meet you!"
His tone was full of confidence and provocation, having already seen through all of Grindelwald's disguises.
Hearing Moon's voice, Grindelwald's body trembled violently.
His blue eyes were filled with shock.
He had never expected that someone could evade his perception at such close range and directly call out his true name!
He carefully scrutinized the young man before him.
His eyes were filled with doubt and wariness.
He could feel that this child before him didn't seem as simple as he appeared on the surface.
He could clearly sense that no magical fluctuations emanated from Moon's body, yet he also felt a powerful magical fluctuation coming from the child's direction.
This made him feel extremely strange.
He slowly activated his precognitive ability, wanting to see Moon's future.
But he found that his ability was completely ineffective on Moon.
All he could see was an endless mist.
This shocked him even more internally.
This child before him was definitely not as harmless as he appeared on the surface!
When he focused all his attention on Moon, he finally discovered what he had overlooked!
Moon's body seemed to be enveloped by a special energy.
That energy was both familiar and strange.
He could clearly feel that it was Time-Space Power!
A power that only existed in legends!
A power that even he could only perceive!
By perceiving this power, seeing some fragments of the future, he was already called a legendary Seer.
Yet, the child before him could actually condense it.
He widened his eyes, his already pale face turning even paler.
His body also trembled slightly from the shock within him.
He couldn't believe his perception.
He muttered to himself: "Impossible! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! No living being can master the power of time; this is absolutely impossible! Not even Death can do it!"
His tone was filled with disbelief, and his indestructible worldview completely collapsed at this moment.
And Moon, seeing Grindelwald's shocked expression, his lips curved slightly upwards, as if he had scared the great first-generation Dark Lord!
Moon extended his hand and pointed gently at Grindelwald.
His tone was calm and confident: "Since you don't believe it, then let me let you experience it yourself!"
As soon as his voice fell, the space where Grindelwaldstood instantly underwent drastic changes.
His powerful Time-Space Power completely erupted, completely engulfing a ten-meter radius around him.
That space, like a completely shattered mirror, began to twist and shatter.
One moment it was day, the next it was night.
One moment it turned into a vast, boundless primeval grassland, the next it became a magnificent ocean.
Various different scenes rapidly alternated around Grindelwald.
His body also became somewhat unsteady as the space twisted.
Chapter 88 Sacred Time
Grindelwald was thrown into complete disarray by Moon's sudden display of Time-Space Power.
He could clearly feel that the space around him was constantly undergoing bizarre changes.
One moment, he was on a cliff, feeling the biting cold wind.
The next, he was pulled into the deep sea, enduring immense water pressure.
Then he was thrown into a purgatory-like lava pit, suffering the pain of scorching heat.
And then he was tossed into a beast's lair, feeling the threat of death.
His body, too, spun incessantly with the changing space.
His sense of direction was completely lost!
It was as if he was trapped in an endless cage, powerless to break free.
His once proud and powerful magic seemed so insignificant and helpless before this mysterious power.
He knew that he wasn't caught in some illusion, nor was he affected by some magic.
Instead, he was genuinely being manipulated by Time-Space Power.
He seemed to have been banished into countless fragments of time and space, yet he was firmly bound to the same coordinate, unable to escape.
He also knew that Moon had no intention of completely destroying him; otherwise, he would have been utterly dispersed by the time-space currents long ago!
He was merely testing him, or perhaps, he was just issuing a warning.
His heart was filled with unwillingness and anger.
He had always prided himself on being the greatest Wizard.
He believed he possessed the power to change the world, to lead the Wizarding World to global domination.
But at this moment, he was like an ant being played with, powerless to resist or break free.
He used all his strength to maintain the defensive magicaround his body.
He wanted to use the power of magic to resist the erosion of Time-Space Power.
Spell after spell was released from his wand.
He wanted to destroy the surrounding time and space, but everything he did was like throwing an egg at a rock, unable to cause any impact on the distorted space, because it was a normal world.
He could only struggle in despair through repeated time-space shifts.
As for Moon, seeing Grindelwald's disheveled state under the Time-Space Power, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, revealing a faint smile.
He hadn't expected the Time-Space Power he'd unleashed on a whim to be so potent!
He thought of something and opened the system interface again.
He wanted to check the changes that had occurred in him after using Time-Space Power.
He wanted to understand the power he possessed more thoroughly.
Opening his attribute panel, he found that he had gained a new skill.

Moon looked at the newly appeared skill, Sacred Time.
The corners of his mouth curved slightly, seemingly very satisfied with the power he had gained.
He could clearly feel that he was step by step closer to his ultimate goal of completely mastering all Time-Space Power.
And he also knew clearly that what he could do now was merely a simple application of Time-Space Power.
He still had a long way to go and had to work harder to fully master the mysteries of time and space.
What surprised him even more was that the system actually recorded the magic power consumed by each time-space change he made.
Each time-space change consumed 5000 points of his magic power!
And he had only used it on Grindelwald for a few seconds—though for Grindelwald, it felt like three days—
and he was left with only over 20,000 points of magicpower!
He knew he couldn't continue; he had to end this experiment as soon as possible.
With a thought, he forcibly cut off the connection to the Time-Space Power.
The originally chaotic and distorted space returned to calm.
Grindelwald's figure reappeared on the streets of New York.
Moon, however, felt a hint of fatigue due to the rapid consumption of magic power.
He forced himself to calm down, his gaze fixed on Grindelwald in the distance, who was emitting powerful magic fluctuations.
Grindelwald finally returned to the real world, gasping for breath.
His body trembled slightly, and he could clearly feel that more than half of his magic power had been consumed.
His once relatively neat clothes were now a bit disheveled.
His face also showed expressions of fear and disbelief.
He looked up, scanned his surroundings, and, after confirming there was no danger, breathed a sigh of relief.
Grindelwald suddenly realized he was back in New York, and there were no more Time-Space Power fluctuations around him.
He had only one thought: get out of here, the farther the better.
His body instantly transformed into a black shadow, quickly using Apparition, disappearing without a trace.
Moon had originally intended to engage in a major battle with Grindelwald.
But he hadn't expected Grindelwald to be so decisive, choosing to flee directly!
He shook his head, somewhat helplessly.
It seemed that a true battle with Grindelwald would have to wait until their next meeting.
He reined in his aura and turned his gaze to Credence, who was still there.
But Credence, noticing Moon's gaze, immediately transformed into an Obscurus and flew in the direction Grindelwald had disappeared.
The originally volatile Obscurus flew very docilely, without damaging anything on the street, disappearing in a straight line.
"He ran away!?" Moon muttered softly, a little surprised.
He could clearly feel that the power within Credence was still strong, but it was very quiet, and he didn't know why.
But just then, a clear image suddenly appeared in his mind.
In that image, he saw Newt, who was pursuing an Erumpent in a dilapidated zoo.
He had his wand snatched by a group of mischievous monkeys.
The monkeys didn't seem to possess the ability to use magic; they just waved the wand haphazardly.
Yet, by a strange twist of fate, they shattered the surrounding rocks, injuring Newt.
And Newt, due to this accident, accidentally bumped into a lioness that had escaped its cage and was surrounded by a group of lionesses, seemingly in a desperate situation.
Meanwhile, Jacob was being chased by the fierce Erumpent on a frozen lake.
His body was pressed beneath the huge Erumpent.
His chubby face was filled with pain, and his eyes began to glaze over from suffocation!
Chapter 89 The Butterfly Effect
"Damn the butterfly effect!" Moon cursed in his heart, his mind filled with helplessness and self-reproach.
He had thought he understood the plot of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them well enough to change some things, but he found that his repeated interventions had only made things more complicated and chaotic.
He remembered clearly that in the original plot, Newt and Jacob didn't encounter too many major accidents while pursuing the Erumpent; they simply chased the Erumpenton the ice.
Newt was only robbed of his wand by a mischievous monkey, but Moon never expected that his arrival would trigger such a huge butterfly effect, even threatening the lives of Newt and Jacob.
He had to be more careful and cautious; while changing the plot, he also had to use Time Perception to foresee dangers in advance and prevent the butterfly effect from causing greater harm.
He exited Sacred Time; this state consumed too much.
What he needed to do most now was to first resolve the crisis that Newt and Jacob were facing.
With a thought, he once again mobilized the magic within his body.
This time, he chose to use Time-Space Acceleration.
A layer of silver-white light instantly covered the surface of his body, flowing like liquid, constantly moving over him.
His figure also vanished into thin air.
In that world affected by Time-Space Power, time seemed to have completely lost its meaning; Moon's speed was extreme.
Meanwhile, in the New York Zoo, Newt was struggling to support himself, leaning against a dilapidated stone wall.
Blood flowed from his arm, staining his light brown sleeve red.
He could clearly feel the pain from the wound constantly devouring his will.
He endured the severe pain, opening his worn-out suitcase with trembling hands.
He knew he had to find healing potions to alleviate his injuries.
He reached in, rummaging through the box, his eyes filled with anxiety and unease.
However, he was completely unaware that he was already surrounded by a group of fierce lionesses!
The lions, originally confined to their cages, revealed greedy gazes after smelling the strong scent of blood on Newt.
Their eyes, like those of wild beasts, gleamed with bloodlust, and copious saliva dripped from their mouths.
Their bodies trembled with excitement, seemingly eager to tear their prey into shreds.
When they saw Newt leaning against the wall, they pounced towards him like arrows shot from a bow.
They roared and snarled, making deafening sounds; they wanted to tear this delicious prey completely to shreds!
Newt finally sensed the danger.
He abruptly looked up and saw the pride of lions fluttering towards him in the distance.
His face instantly turned pale; his current situation was extremely dangerous, yet he had no strength to resist.
It was even difficult for him to lift his head, and his body was becoming weaker and weaker, but he still couldn't find the potion in the box!
At this critical moment, Newt subconsciously raised his injured arm, wanting to use his body to block the lions' sharp claws.
He knew he would surely die here, but he still didn't want to die without even a struggle.
A few seconds passed, and he still didn't feel the expected pain of being torn apart.
He cautiously lowered his arm.
What he saw was not the bloody scene he had imagined.
What appeared before him was a ferocious and terrifying lion's face.
The lioness was opening her gaping maw, only a few centimeters from his face.
Her teeth gleamed with a chilling light, and her eyes were filled with ferocity, but she seemed to be frozen in mid-air, motionless.
The pride of lions behind her was also frozen in place.
Their limbs were all stretched forward, wanting to pounce on their prey, but they couldn't advance an inch.
Everything seemed to be completely still, eerie and quiet.
Newt's eyes widened.
He saw the familiar silver light.
He remembered the Murtlap that had been frozen in mid-air before.
He knew that Moon had saved him again!
"Moon! Go save Mr. Kowalski, he's in great danger right now!" Newt shouted with all his might.
He knew that the danger Jacob faced was even greater than his own; he had to inform Moon to save that innocent Muggle.
"Alright!" A calm voice rang in Newt's ear.
His voice was like a breeze, gentle yet firm.
Immediately after, Moon's figure vanished into thin air again!
At the same time, on the frozen lake, Jacob fell on the ice.
His body spun helplessly like a top on the icy surface.
His face turned pale, and his limbs trembled incessantly as he tried to stand up, but his body had no strength left.
He watched the enormous Erumpent approaching him step by step.
Its sharp horn gleamed with a chilling light under the sunlight.
It opened its large mouth and extended its long tongue, seemingly enjoying the impending female.
Its massive body gradually obscured Jacob's vision, and his body was enveloped by the huge shadow.
His heart was utterly filled with despair!
Just as the Erumpent was about to pounce on Jacob, Moon's figure reappeared.
He used the Time-Space Power he controlled to infinitely stretch the space between Jacob and the Erumpent.
The distance the Erumpent traveled became infinitely far; its massive body seemed to never be able to get closer to Jacob by even an inch!
Moon looked at the endless ice surface and the Erumpentthat was always one step away from him.
His heart was filled with emotion.
His current situation was too passive.
Without a wand, his Time-Space Power would be greatly restricted, consuming a lot of energy.
He also couldn't use more magic spells.
He had to get a wand of his own as soon as possible to truly unleash his power!
Jacob watched the Erumpent in front of him, seemingly blocked by some invisible force.
No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't get close to him.
His tense body finally relaxed.
He collapsed weakly onto the ice, panting heavily.
He felt as if his lungs were about to explode.
That feeling of surviving a disaster made him incredibly exhausted.
Chapter 90 The World in the Box
Newt hurried onto the frozen lake, his old suitcase in hand.
His figure appeared very thin in the cold wind, and his steps were slightly erratic due to his anxiety.
His heart, which had been hanging, could not calm down.
He was afraid that if he arrived a step late, the Erumpentwould harm Jacob.
When he saw Jacob lying on the ice, gasping for breath, and also saw the Erumpent spinning frantically in place, the worry in his eyes finally receded significantly.
He knew that Moon must have already acted to resolve the immediate crisis!
He quickly placed his suitcase gently on the Erumpent's body.
He opened the box, trying to recall the Erumpent into it, but found that he could not get the Erumpent into the box no matter what.
Only then did he notice the Erumpent's state at the time: motionless and very familiar.
He turned to look at Moon, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
His voice also seemed a bit flustered: "Moon! I… I can't do it. It seems to be bound by something all over its body. I can't put it back in the box. Please help me! Can you restore it?"
He was really a bit embarrassed, as he didn't like contact with people in the first place.
It was clearly his own fault, yet he kept letting Moon help him.
Although they were from the same school, Moon had helped him too much.
Moon looked at Newt's awkward gaze and smiled, nodding slightly.
Newt was now very embarrassed.
He didn't hesitate.
He raised his right hand and gently waved it at the Erumpent, which was controlled by Time-Space Power.
He withdrew the "Time-Space Stretch" he had applied to the Erumpent, and the Erumpent regained its ability to move.
Its huge body, like an arrow shot from a bow, rushed towards Jacob again.
But then it stopped and stood in place.
However, it seemed to have completely forgotten everything that had just happened.
It just used its sharp eyes to survey its surroundings, seemingly looking for a familiar scent.
But it couldn't find the location of the scent it had just detected, until it was sucked into the suitcase.
It still hadn't figured out where that familiar scent had gone.
Meanwhile, Jacob scrambled to his feet, trembling violently from the cold.
He glanced at the Erumpent, which Newt had already put back in the box, then turned to Moon.
He said gratefully: "Moon! Thank you so much! If you hadn't gotten some water for me to wash the scent off my clothes, it probably would have gone crazy and chased me again."
He was still a bit scared, and his heart was full of gratitude for Moon.
"It's nothing, Jacob, all I can do is help with small things!" Moon said to Jacob, revealing a gentle smile, comforting Jacob's mood.
It was indeed too dangerous for an ordinary person just now.
He turned to Newt and asked with concern: "Newt, are you alright? Your arm looks like it's badly injured! You need some treatment!"
He could feel the faint magic fluctuations within Newt, knowing that Newt needed to receive treatment as soon as possible to recover.
Newt also became aware of the injury on his arm.
He looked down at his already bloody and mangled arm.
A pained expression appeared on his face.
He bit his lip tightly, trying not to make any sound.
He shook his head and said in a somewhat weak voice: "It's nothing, Moon, I'm fine, I just need some treatment."
He had been too worried just now, only then feeling the intense pain in his arm!
Moon looked at Newt's attempt to act strong, pointed to a shadow nearby, and said to Newt: "Newt, let's go rest there for a bit, I'll help you with your injuries."
Newt needed a quiet place to tend to his wounds.
Newt nodded.
He endured the pain in his body, carried his old suitcase, and walked into the shadows.
Then, he slowly opened the suitcase and motioned for Moon and Jacob to enter with him.
He seemed to want to treat his injuries inside the box.
Jacob saw Newt's gesture and, being familiar with the routine, followed closely behind Newt, entering the narrow box opening together.
Fortunately, having learned from the previous experience of getting stuck, their movements were quick this time.
However, Moon did not immediately enter the suitcase.
He activated "Time Perception" again.
He wanted to confirm what might happen next.
And the scene he saw made him feel a touch of helplessness.
He saw that after they entered the suitcase, Tina suddenly appeared outside the box.
She stealthily approached the box, pressing Newt's suitcase down tightly.
She used both hands to firmly lock the box, then lifted the heavy suitcase.
Her figure also disappeared from the spot.
She carried the suitcase and headed in the direction of the New York Ministry of Magic!
Moon knew that Tina and Newt did not yet have a deep bond, and she was not on their side.
Newt, who carried dangerous magical creatures, was still her target for capture.
Thinking of this, Moon recalled his system task: to check in at the Ministry of Magic.
The system did not specify which Ministry of Magic.
Now, going to the Ministry of Magic with Tina might allow him to complete his system task.
He collected his thoughts, looked at the old box in front of him, and without any hesitation, took a step and walked into the suitcase.
And the door of the suitcase slowly closed again as Moonentered.
Indeed, as Moon had expected, the moment Moon entered the box, a blue light flashed across the surface of the box, and the box was locked.
And in the very next second, Tina's figure reappeared beside the box.
She picked up the box, and with all her strength, ran in the direction of the New York Ministry of Magic.
Her firm steps and the serious and solemn expression on her face all showed her inner determination.
She knew that everything she was doing was correct.
She had to bring these dangerous individuals to the Ministry of Magic for investigation!
Meanwhile, Moon stood in Newt's magical animal world, curiously looking around.
He found that the interior of the box was even more vast than he had imagined.
Inside, it was like a real world.
All kinds of magical creatures were happily living there, some playing on branches, some swimming in ponds, some running on the grass, as if in a magical paradise full of life.
He also vaguely heard Newt seemingly communicating with some magical animals, but the sound was very faint, and he couldn't hear it very clearly.
