The entrance to the Thunderbird Sanctuary is a Baroque-style building leaning on the mountain. It has a simple and elegant appearance. The overall appearance is dark red, which is in harmony with the natural environment.
But the walls were covered with ptarmigan guano, like a thick blanket.
Rolf has only been here once, many years ago, and has no deep impression of the reserve. However, Margaery has been coming here frequently recently, often visiting Newt and Tina.
Therefore, she went through all the procedures with ease without having to worry about it at all, and finally rented a jeep.
When the jeep plunged into the desert desert, Rolf soon understood why Margaery rented a car instead of riding a broomstick.
too hot!
Arizona has a subtropical continental arid and semi-arid climate, surrounded by deserts. The highest temperature can reach nearly 50 degrees... It is simply a big furnace!
Even when sitting in the car, the heat wave still hits my face violently. It feels like being hugged by a runner who is radiating heat... very hot and sticky.
In this environment, let alone riding a broomstick, standing outside for a few minutes would probably lead to dehydration.
The wizards at the entrance to the reserve are also aware of this situation, so they provide Muggle transportation for visitors.
But with Rolf here, you don't have to worry about the heat. He has the magic "Frost Power" from the Kabulosaurus, which can lower the temperature inside the car by consuming magic power.
It can be said that Rolf is currently a walking air conditioner.
The problem of heat has been solved, but you still have to pay attention to sun protection. With such strong ultraviolet rays, if you don't pay attention to sun protection, you will become African within a few days.
Margaery was experienced in this area. She was sitting in the passenger seat, pouring some sunscreen on her fingertips and gently applying it on her slender legs.
From her thighs to her calves, she didn't even let go of her white and tender feet.
After Margaery finished applying it, she handed the bottle over and said in a disgusting voice: "Rolf, help sister apply sunscreen. I can't reach your back."
"You are wearing clothes, what should you apply on your back?" Luo Fu said speechlessly: "No matter how strong the ultraviolet rays are, can they still hit your back?"
"I have obsessive-compulsive disorder, don't you know?" Margaery said with a smile: "If you want to wear sunscreen, you must apply it evenly all over your body."
"..."
I don't know why, but under the control of Luo Fu, the temperature in the car was obviously very low, but he still felt a little bit hot.
Merlin, damn the weather, make it even hotter if you can!
The weather was too hot. Not only was Rolf irritable, but even the magical creatures were hiding. The boy drove for half an hour and didn't see a single animal.
At a glance, there is only the vast desert Gobi desert in the field of vision, and the narrow road is like a yellow turbid stream, winding in the desert, and the jeep is a lonely boat.
It wasn't until he encountered a stretch of cactus forest that Luo Fu stopped the car and walked towards the group of tall cacti.
The most common plant in the desert area is the cactus, but the cactus in front of you is not an ordinary species.
They are called "giant pillars". As the name suggests, they are giant cactus trees that can reach a height of twenty meters... Among cacti, they are considered towering giant trees...
After the giant column grows to a certain age, it will grow branches one after another, like arms raised upward, forming a huge candlestick-like shape with the main trunk.
Numerous huge green thorn branches stand tall and arranged in the desert wilderness, extending thousands of giant arms to the sky... The scene is extremely shocking.
Giant's Column is also a unique plant in Arizona and is not even planted in Professor Sprout's greenhouse.
Margery also got out of the car. She wrapped herself in sun protection clothing and held up an umbrella, covering most of the umbrella above Luo Fu's head.
Seeing the boy shoveling the cactus, she said curiously:
"You want to transplant it into a box?"
"Yes." Rolf nodded.
"When did you become interested in plants?" Margery raised her beautiful eyebrows and said, "I thought you were only interested in animals.
Woolen cloth."
"I can control the growth of plants." Rolf explained: "It's pretty good to fight others with these giant pillars."
When the giant cactus rises, the row of spikes will shoot out, turning the opponent into a hedgehog...it's exciting just thinking about it.
It's not easy to visit the Thunderbird Sanctuary. Rolf plans to transplant more giant pillars and give a few to Neville.
Margaery waved her wand and the parasol floated in mid-air. She also squatted down, put on her dragon skin gloves, and started to help dig cacti.
Margaery dug up a big stone and suddenly said in surprise: "Hey, a basilisk."
Luofu turned around and saw a huge lizard. Its whole body was covered with strange-shaped black scales, and its body was curled up into a ball.
However, it passed out. Margaery poked the lizard with a stick and said with a dumb smile:
"Rolph, this little guy is suffering from heat stroke."
Luofu looked at the basilisk, and suddenly there was a "ding" sound in his brain.
[A petrified lizard suffering from heat radiation disease was detected, triggering side mission 1:]
Help the basilisk cure heat radiation sickness and reward magic:
[turning things into stones]
[Consumption of magic power can turn any object into stone]
[Side mission 2]
Complete the 100% domestication of the basilisk, reward magic:
[Solid as a rock]
[Make the body as hard as a stone (Note: You can make part of the body as hard as a stone)]
"..."
The petrification of the basilisk is different from the petrification of the basilisk. The petrification of the basilisk only makes the wizard's body stiff, but it is still the same body.
The petrification of the basilisk actually turns objects into stone.
Of course, the magic of "hard as a rock" does not actually turn into a stone, but has the same hardness as a stone.
Luofu picked up the basilisk that suffered from heatstroke and was going to take it back to the car and give it heat-reducing medicine.
No matter what, the second skill must be learned.
Bird Snake only gave him extraordinary length, but length does not mean hardness. This time it finally made up for its shortcomings.
Luo Fu and Margery returned to the jeep and continued to drive forward. He suddenly saw a girl standing on the side of the road, waving to them.
The girl's clothing was very strange. A piece of light-colored deerskin was draped over her shoulders like a cloak, and a rectangular piece of tanned leather was wrapped around her lower body to form a leather skirt.
The girl also wore tanned leather boots and leggings on her feet. The leggings hung down to her knees and the lower ends were buckled to the tanned leather boots.
"It's a native of North America." Margery frowned.
Among the indigenous people of North America, there are Muggles and some wizard-like beings. The relationship between them and wizards is very complicated.
Not wanting to cause trouble, Luofu turned the steering wheel and prepared to avoid the girl.
But the girl suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously towards the jeep.
