Chapter 287 North Mi natives
The entrance of the Thunderbird Reserve is a Baroque-style building that rests on the mountain. Its appearance is simple and elegant, and 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.
Rove has only been here once, many years ago, and he doesn't have a deep impression of the reserve, but Margaery has been coming here frequently recently, often visiting Newt and Tina.
Therefore, she went through all kinds of formalities with ease, without Rove worrying about it at all, and finally rented a jeep.
When the jeep plunged headlong into the deserted Gobi Desert, Rove quickly understood why Margery rented a car instead of riding a broomstick.
too hot!
Arizona has a subtropical continental arid and semi-arid climate, surrounded by deserts, and the highest temperature can reach nearly 50 degrees... It is simply a big furnace!
Even sitting in the car, the heat wave still hits violently. It feels like being hugged by a warm runner... very hot and sticky.
In this environment, let alone riding a broomstick, standing outside for a few minutes may cause dehydration.
The wizards at the entrance to the sanctuary, too, are aware of this and will provide visitors with Muggle transport.
However, with Rove here, there is no need to worry about the heat. He has the magic "Frost Power" from Kabulolong, which can reduce the temperature in the car by consuming magic power.
It can be said that Rove is currently the air conditioner for walking.
The hot problem is solved, but we still have to pay attention to sun protection. If we don’t pay attention to sun protection under such strong ultraviolet radiation, we will become Africans within a few days.
Margaery has extensive experience in this area. She sat in the co-pilot, poured some sunscreen on her fingertips, and gently applied her slender legs.
From her thighs to her calves, she didn't even let go of her white and tender feet.
After Margery finished applying it, she handed over the bottle again, and said softly, "Rove, help my sister apply sunscreen, I can't reach my back."
"You're wearing clothes, what kind of back are you painting?" Rove said speechlessly, "No matter how strong the ultraviolet rays are, can they still tan 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, under Rove's control, the temperature in the car is obviously very low, but he still feels a little hot.
Merlin, damn the weather, make it hotter if you can!
The weather was too hot, not only Rove was irritable, but even the magical creatures were hiding. The boy drove for half an hour without seeing a single animal.
At a glance, there are only vast deserted deserts and Gobi 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 Rove stopped the car and walked towards the group of tall cactus.
The most common plant in the desert area is the cactus, but the cactus in front of me is not an ordinary species.
They are called "Giant Columns". As the name suggests, they are giant cactus trees that can reach a height of 20 meters... Among cacti, they can be called towering giant trees.
After the giant column grows to a certain age, it will grow branches, like arms raised upwards, forming a huge candlestick-like shape with the main trunk.
Numerous huge blue thorny branches stand up and line up in the desert wilderness, stretching out thousands of giant arms to the sky... The scene looks extremely shocking.
The giant column is also a unique plant in Arizona, and even Professor Sprout's greenhouse is not planted.
Margaery also got out of the car. She was wrapped in sun protection clothes and came with an umbrella, covering most of the umbrella on Rove's head.
Seeing the boy shoveling the cactus, she said curiously:
"You're going to be transplanted into a box?"
"Yes." Rolf nodded.
"Since when have you become interested in plants?" Margaret raised her beautiful eyebrows and said, "I thought you were only interested in animals."
"I can control the growth of plants." Rove explained: "It's not bad to use these giant pillars to fight others."
When the giant cactus rises, the row of spikes shoots out again, turning the opponent into a hedgehog... It's exciting to think about it.
It's not easy to come to the Thunderbird Reserve. Rove is going to transplant more giant columns, and he can give Neville a few.
Margaery waved her magic wand, and the parasol floated in the air. She also squatted down, put on dragonskin gloves, and began to help dig the cactus.
Margaery dug up a big rock and suddenly said in surprise, "Hey, a petrified lizard."
Rove turned his head and saw a huge lizard, its whole body was covered with strange-shaped black scales, and its body was curled up into a ball.
But it passed out, and Margaery poked the lizard with a stick, and said with a dumbfounded smile:
"Rove, this little guy is suffering from heat stroke."
Rove looked at the petrified lizard, and suddenly there was a "ding" in his brain.
[A petrified lizard detected with heat radiation sickness, triggering side mission 1:]
Help the basilisk cure heat radiation sickness, bonus magic:
【Point things into stone】
[Consume magic power to petrify any object]
[Submission 2]
Complete 100% domestication of basilisks, bonus magic:
【Sturdy as a rock】
[Make the body as hard as a stone (Note: Part of the body can be made 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.
And the petrification of the petrified lizard really turns objects into stones.
Of course, the magic of "solid as a rock" does not really turn into a stone, but has the hardness of a stone.
Rove picked up the sunstroke petrified lizard and prepared to take it back to the car and give it anti-heat medicine.
In any case, the second skill must be learned.
Bird Snake only gave him extraordinary length, but length does not mean hardness, and now he has finally made up for his shortcomings.
Rove and Margery returned to the jeep and continued to drive forward. He suddenly saw a girl standing by the side of the road and waving at them vigorously.
The girl's costume was very strange. A whole 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, forming a leather skirt.
On the girl's feet, she also wore tanned leather boots and leggings. The leggings hung down to her knees, and the lower end was buckled to the tanned leather boots.
"It's a native of North America." Margaery frowned.
Among the aborigines of North America, there are muggles, and there are some wizard-like existences, and the relationship between them and wizards is very complicated.
Rove didn't want to cause trouble, so he turned the steering wheel and prepared to avoid the girl.
But the girl suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously towards the jeep.
