Ghost Rider's Judgment

Chapter 8 Fantastic Beasts
Chen Qi's words shocked the shop owner. She had never seen anyone come up and ask such a question.

"Sorry, sir, what did you say?" The shopkeeper didn't know how to answer, so he had to say this.

"I said, I want your most expensive pet!" Chen Qi doubled his volume, slowed down his speaking speed twice, and said it again.

Everyone in the store was dumbfounded. It seemed they couldn't handle this type of customer.

"How about you take a look around here?" The clerk said awkwardly: "The most popular ones here are owls, toads and cats!"

Chen Qi interrupted: "I don't need these rags, I am your most expensive and rarest!"

As soon as Chen Qi finished speaking, the store immediately exploded, and the pets in the cages began to boil. Pets such as owls, toads, and cats seemed to want to break out of the cages and teach Chen Qi a lesson.

It seems that these animals have understood Chen Qi's words. After all, they are magical animals and have certain wisdom.

Of course, they obviously didn't know that Chen Qi had easily tamed a fire dragon not long ago, and it was also the extremely ferocious Ukrainian Iron Belly, otherwise they would never dare to be so rampant in front of Chen Qi.

The owner was speechless, not knowing how to answer.

"I want rare and practical ones, such as fire dragons!" Chen Qi said.

However, the shop owner almost pissed himself after hearing this, and immediately said: "Sorry sir, the sale of fire dragons is strictly prohibited by the Ministry of Magic. We don't have such a thing in the store. Absolutely not!"

"I know, I'm just giving you an example!" Chen Qi curled his lips and said. Fortunately, he hid Agares in a secret place before leaving Gringotts. It would be troublesome if he was discovered. .

However, at this moment, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up and he said: "By the way, we have a magical animal that you might be interested in. Of course, it is much worse than the fire dragon, and it is difficult to tame!"

"Oh?" Chen Qi suddenly became interested.

This is a pet store, but the shop owner seemed to have deliberately not called it a pet, but directly called it a magical animal. This shows that the magical animal she was talking about was not suitable for being a pet.

"Sir, please follow me!" After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he walked towards the interior of the shop.

Chen Qi followed the shop owner to a cubicle. Compared with the pet store outside, it was obviously darker. There were several pet cages scattered here.

"Most of the pets here are sick or injured and cannot be sold!" the shop owner explained.

Chen Qi suddenly murmured in his heart, what does this guy mean by bringing me here, asking me to be kind enough to buy a few disabled pets and raise them?

"Of course, in addition to these unsellable pets, there are also some more sensitive magical animals that are not suitable for sale in stores!"

The shopkeeper said, and took Chen Qi to a cage. It was a very large cage with a strange creature in it.

I saw that it had a pair of blue-green wings. It looked like a reptile or a huge butterfly. The wings were covered with spikes.

It looks very beautiful on the outside, but it is full of danger.

"Curling-winged Demon!" The clerk called out its name with a smile.

"The reason why it is said to be a little sensitive is that although the Ministry of Magic has not strictly prohibited the sale and purchase of the Winged Demon, this kind of creature is extremely dangerous because it feeds on human brains and is also highly poisonous. But if the It is very practical after taming, it usually shrinks itself into a green cocoon, and if the venom it secretes is properly diluted, it can also be used to erase bad memories!"

The clerk explained patiently, because she could tell that Chen Qi seemed very interested in this curled-winged demon.

In fact, Chen Qi is familiar with this kind of animal. In "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the protagonist Newt has a crouching demon, and it plays a big role in it.

"Okay, I bought it. How much does it cost?" Chen Qi said.

"Five hundred Galleons!" the clerk said.

Afterwards, Chen Qi took out a bag the size of a palm from his bosom, and with a bang, a large pile of gold coins fell out of the bag.

The space expansion spell was learned from Gibbon's memory.

After the shopkeeper opened the cage, Chen Qi couldn't wait to put his hand in.

"Hey, stop!" Seeing Chen Qi's behavior, the shop owner immediately shouted.

She was frightened and stupid. Did this guy not listen to her after she talked for a long time?Although this curled-winged demon has been trained and will not easily attack others without orders, if a stranger approaches, it will still instinctively react to protect itself, and the curled-winged demon is also highly poisonous. Before catching it, Basic protective measures are needed, and you can't catch them anyway!
Is this guy a total layman?Is it really safe to sell this crouching demon to him?
However, the next scene made her even more stunned.

After Chen Qi stretched out his hand, the curling-winged demon cooperated and shrank into a cocoon, and was then taken into Chen Qi's hand.

The whole process went very smoothly without any surprises.She had never seen this curled-winged demon be so obedient.

Although the curled-winged demon is in its normal state, its figure is even wider than the shoulders of a normal person, but when it shrinks into a cocoon, it is magically only as big as one hand. Chen Qi can easily Hold it in the palm of your hand or even put it in your pocket.

After putting away the curling-winged demon, he looked around again, wanting to see if there were any other valuable magical animals besides the curling-winged demon.

In the end, he fixed his eyes on a box under his feet. The box was small and delicate, and he didn't know what material it was made of, but Chen Qi could feel some magical power from it.

It seems to be a kind of barrier magic, which should be used to protect the things in the box.

"What is that?" Chen Qi asked, pointing to the box.

The shop owner was startled, then followed Chen Qi's finger to look at the box.

Then she turned to Chen Qi and said hesitantly: "That... is the treasure of our store!"

"The treasure of the shop? How much is it?" Chen Qi suddenly asked excitedly.

The shop owner fainted. Who is this?I didn’t even know what was inside, so I just asked how much it cost.

She sighed, and then said: "Although this is the treasure of the store, it was purchased from other places. We spent a lot of money to get it, so we can't sell it at a low price in order to make a profit." Sell ​​at the right price!”

In fact, this thing has been sitting here for several years, but it has never been sold because it is too expensive. Although those big families can afford the price, most of them are not willing to spend such a high price to buy it.

"This is a phoenix egg, it costs ten thousand galleons!"

Chen Qi's eyes lit up, and he took out his wallet without saying a word and said, "I bought it!"
