Chapter 10: Time Rushes (1)

"It seems that during my absence, you have indeed not been idle. "www.biquge.infoRogge told me in his dorm room the day before yesterday that he had made a breakthrough in his transfiguration technique, and that he had succeeded in turning a cockroach into a human-like creature. ”

"I know, I'm just wondering what's the use of this thing?" said Philip, puzzled, "Your magic Animagus is difficult, but if successful, it's still useful." It depends mainly on the magical creature you want to transform, and 2 months ago a Russian wizard managed to transform into a Ukrainian Iron Belly. It's cool, I looked at the pictures, I have wings, I can fly - it's just that the scales on my body are kind of disgusting. ”

Phoenix glanced at the mechanical watch and was about to go to dinner. Philip was still chattering.

"What's the use of his Transfiguration inventions?"

"To tell you the truth, I've been finding it useful lately. "You see there are almost no places in the wizarding world for eroticism, because witches are not easy to find and very risky. If the risk is not proportional to the benefit, no one wants to do it. His idea was to have the shapeshifting creatures take their place, the witches. ”

Philip opened his mouth wide and glared as he stepped into the trap staircase. For old students, skipping them has long been instinctive.

"If this can be done, think about it. Phoenix pulled him out hard, "He thinks he can make a lot of money, as long as he knows where the limits of his strength are, otherwise he may be eaten alive by the predators." ”

"I didn't think of that sooner, damn it. "Will he succeed?" he said regretfully, "Will he succeed?" he asked.

"It depends on whether he can turn a larger creature into a man, and he needs to have some human organs. "Phoenix isn't sure either.

"You studied the Blood Curse just to make money?"

"Is it for the sake of world peace?" he waved his hand depressedly, "You may not know how profitable medical potions are. ”

Phoenix shrugged helplessly, although the original intention of the PA he established was indeed for the development of the wizarding world, to invent more and better magic, and to make the wizarding world better. He can't say anything about Philip's remarks either, after all, it's a matter of reality, and he can't ask everyone to be an idealist.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Phoenix was wearing dragon skin gloves and full protective gear. In today's herb class, they are going to the seventh greenhouse, which is the most dangerous of all the greenhouses in Hogwarts, and the slightest mistake will kill them.

There weren't many people in class, Hermione, Phoenix, and Neville, as well as Ernie. Neville said that there are actually quite a few people, but the seventh grade is more free, and there are not many people in the class, especially in such a dangerous class.

"Alright, put on your hat and cover your head with a bubble head charm," said Professor Sprout with extra sternness, "and the plants we are studying today are unusual and dangerous. ”

She pulled out a vial, amber liquid.

"It's a potion that expells seeds, and everyone has to take a sip at the end of class. She shook the bottle, "I warn you, no one can save you if you don't drink it, and you are parasitized by seeds." ”

The four of them exchanged a knowing glance in earnest.

Neville was serious and excited, and was the first to follow Professor Sprout into the greenhouse. Inside, it was humid and muggy, with a tropical rainforest climate, and in the center of the greenhouse were vines with a dozen pale red flowers growing on them, the stamens of which were spike-like and wrapped in pale blue magic.

A drizzle of rain fell over their heads, and with a wave of Professor Sprout's wand, the rain immediately stopped.

"Come on, come closer. She beckoned them to come closer, "Go inside, quick!"

They immediately stood around the vines, and Professor Sprout told them to take out their notebooks and begin their lecture.

"Does anyone know about the plants we're going to talk about today?"

Neville immediately raised his hand, and the professor motioned to Neville unsurprisingly.

"Cannibal vines, distributed in southern Mexico, are highly imitative and aggressive, presumably first used in ancient rituals, and then after getting out of control, they once spread throughout the Americas, and around the 1st century AD, the antidote to cannibal vines and the fire of the calendar were invented to control their spread. Later, it was deployed to the defensive pyramid and used to defend against the enemy. The most terrifying thing about them is that the seeds are very tiny, completely invisible to the naked eye, and can directly enter the human body through any form of touch, take root and germinate. The antidote must be taken before germination, otherwise you will surely die. ”

"Very well, Gryffindor plus ten. "You heard, they're very dangerous. ”

Then the stamens of the cannibalistic vines trembled.

"They are very dangerous. "The plant mimics Professor Sprout's words vividly.

"I don't know, they can sing. "Phoenix thinks they're fun.

Today is the last day, and tomorrow the school will have a Christmas holiday. Because of the changes in the war, the first-year students are happy, and the school holidays are just a few days away - Phoenix thinks they are happy, and Hermione suggests to Professor McGonagall that the first-year students stay in school as much as possible, after many of them have already pulled down a lot of homework, and this suggestion is adopted.

Teachers teach 7th graders in a herding style, after all, what they are learning at this grade level depends on what their future goals are, and rigid classroom education is not suitable for the graduating grade. In the run-up to Christmas, he plays with everyone.

Heavy snow fell on the castle and grounds. Friends and parents from abroad live in Hogsmeade, and because there are so many people, Hogwarts has to pay for renting a number of tents.

Phoenix, dressed in a gun salute, waited for Hermione in front of the portrait of the Fat Lady, taking everyone's gaze, and he was used to it anyway. At least except for the junior students, everyone stopped pestering him to ask all kinds of questions.

Hermione came out of the common room with the headdress that Phoenix had bought with all her money, and I have to say that the goblins made something really good. She walked up to Phoenix with a light gait and a smile on her face. Hermione was wearing a very simple silver gown that seemed to emit an intense silver glow around her. The silver light overshadowed everyone around him.

"You're so beautiful today, I'm so lucky. Phoenix said, holding Hermione.

Crookhill trotted out between the two - Hermione's parents had already been picked up from Australia, and Hermione had left Crookhill with them, and the cat had naturally returned to Hermione.

"By the way, how high are you wearing?" Phoenix whispered in her ear.

Usually Hermione, even in high heels, was not as tall as she is today, almost as level as Phoenix.

"Oh, pretty tall, I think this is the last time I'll wear such high heels. Let's hurry up. After a long time, I'm afraid my dad won't be able to stand it. ”

"It's the Christmas Ball, nothing scares him. ”

When they came, they were startled by the armor of the singing ground. ”
