"You're here."
A loud voice rang out, the door to the hut opened, and Hercules strode out, his big dog walking beside him. Very rarely, Hercules wore a hunting suit today, with an oversized rhinoceros leather armor on the upper body, a pair of cowhide breeches around the lower body, and two shoes the size of a basin on his feet.
In addition to the small umbrella pinned to his waist, he was carrying a wooden stick as thick as his thigh, half of which was purple-brown and had a strong fishy smell.
"Hi, Hercule." Harry looked left and right, trying to find someone else behind him, was it just you? ”
Hercules clearly did not notice what he was thinking, in fact, for some reason he was in some kind of euphoria.
"I'm glad you can choose my class, this year's class will be very exciting, to be honest, I really didn't expect Zhang Liang to propose such a change, compared to him, I was still too conservative in the past." Hercules said.
"Ugh"
Several black lines appeared on the heads of the three of them at once, and they were all guessing what Hercules meant by being too conservative, and at that moment, the door to the huge paddock that looked like a tent without a roof of a circus opened.
It was Luna who appeared.
Different from the usual students' dress, at this time, Luna tied a belt similar to a belt around the waist of the robe, with two small leather bags hanging on the left and right, and a silver bright stick in her hand, about half of the total length of the stick in the middle of the stick was wrapped with a layer of animal skin, so that the hand would not slip, and the faint magic energy scattered on it showed that this was a magic weapon.
She beckoned to the three of them, motioning for them to come over, and Harry and the others walked through the door with anticipation.
"...... this?"
What they didn't expect was that behind the gate, there was not anything that would surprise them, but a rather ordinary classroom, a lectern, a few desks, and if anything, a few wooden sticks, a few brooms for teaching, and a few travel backpacks with harnesses were placed by the wall.
Chen Ping stood at the back of the podium with a grin and motioned for several people to sit down.
"Well, as you can see, this year's Magical Creatures class is for Hercules and me." Zhang Liangdao, Hermione noticed that Chen Ping deliberately deleted the word "protection".
"First, I want to ask a question, why do you think we are taking the Magical Creatures class?" Chen Ping asked.
Hermione raised her hand, and Chen Ping nodded for her to answer: "It's for us to understand the habits of various magical creatures, so that we can protect their living conditions from destruction and get along with them better." ”
"I can't say you answered incorrectly, but it's the answer in the book, not yours, and it's not the answer I want to hear."
Chen Ping's gaze swept over everyone, then nodded at Harry and said, "Harry, you answer." ”
"Well, so we can learn about these creatures." Harry said.
"That's right, but why should we learn about these creatures?"
Chen Ping smiled and said, "I want to tell you first, we don't want to train a group of veterinarians or breeders when we learn magical creatures. The reason why we want to take this course is because in our world, there are these amazing creatures, and it is likely that one day now or in the future, we will face them. ”
"I know you've learned about vultures, spiny-tailed snails, spiders, centaurs, and the like. Professor Grapeland has also taught you a little bit about unicorns and things like Niver. But these are not the same thing as what I want to sue you. ”
His expression was stern: "However, your knowledge of magical creatures cannot be limited to these things, you should learn how to deal with some more dangerous creatures. And learn how to survive in front of these creatures, and even defeat them. ”
Ignoring the surprised looks of several people, he took out his wand and waved it, and a line of words appeared in the air.
"Dangerous magical creatures."
"Among magical creatures, not all creatures are friendly to humans, many creatures hate humans, and some of them will even actively attack humans. Of course, under normal circumstances, we rarely encounter them, but I would like to mention those dangerous creatures that can be controlled by wizards, especially evil wizards, as summons or thugs, as well as some bloodline mutated creatures such as werewolves, vampires, and otherworldly creatures such as Demont. ”
"Finally, a few words about the way we teach, because of this incident at the station, I have reason to believe that there are some wizards who have their eyes on you, especially you, Harry, so I need to improve your abilities and experience as much as possible. And of all the ways, actual combat is undoubtedly the most effective. ”
"Actual combat?" The three cried out in surprise.
"That's right, you don't see the door behind me." Chen Ping said with certainty, I have set up an environment similar to an arena, and I can adjust the scene inside as needed, and your course is to go inside, fight those creatures, and subdue or destroy them all. Once you've done it, the magic I've set will spread you. Luna! ”
Luna stood up, took out three small boxes, and handed them to the three of them.
"The purpose of this course is to let you master the skills of fighting, not to send you to death, so I have prepared this for you." Chen Ping clicked on the ring in the box, and then clicked on a tabletop-sized stone disc on the side of the classroom.
"As soon as you feel like you can't go any further, such as if you're injured or run out of supplies, just activate the crystals on the ring and the ring will teleport you outside. So, under all conditions, you must ensure that the ring is on your body.
He pointed to the sticks and packages beside him.
"Today is the first class, so I have prepared these for you, there are some potions, bandages and food, including the ones I asked you to prepare, if you finish what I have explained, then you can support it for a little longer, but from the next class, I will not prepare for you again. As for the sticks, trust me, you'll be there soon, and you'll need it. ”
As he spoke, he looked at Herculi and gave way.
"Well, that, according to the request of Zhang Liang and Professor Dumbledore, I am going to teach you some skills on how to use wooden sticks to fight today, maybe you will say, you are wizards, you don't need to learn this, but like Zhang Liang said, a strong wooden stick will play a big role in actual hand-to-hand combat......"
"Well, good luck to you, you're going to need this."
In Chen Ping's strange blessings, Harry and the other four walked into the door behind Chen Ping, carrying backpacks, wooden sticks in one hand and magic wands in the other. After everyone entered, a white light flashed at the original location of the door, and it disappeared, and four people appeared, who were in a bush.
The light was not bright, and a dim light shone from above, passing through a few low trees that were more than a man tall, reflecting some gloomy and strange reflections on the ground.
Maybe they knew in advance that this forest was the product of magic, in short, in the eyes of the four people, this forest was always a little weird, the wind in the forest was blowing on the neck, cold, as if someone was blowing behind it, and a thick layer of fallen leaves fell on the ground, and it was soft when stepped on, and from time to time some small insects and mice ran away from their feet.
"Ah, what a hell of a place." Ron rubbed his nose and said with some exasperation.
As if in response to his words, there was a sudden gurgling sound in the forest, like the voice of some evil goblin.
"Shut up, Ron." Hermione's cold hairs stood on end like a cat with its tail stepped on, and she stopped and looked around nervously.
"Drink the defensive potion."
Luna said suddenly, and then she took out a small bottle of potion and drank it from her mouth.
"What are those things?"
Harry shouted, drawing his wand and pointing forward.
Behind a bush in front of them, a head emerged, somewhat like the elves they had seen in Hogwarts, but unlike the elves, it had a shabby red hat on its head, a cruelty and thirst for blood in its eyes, and a pair of canine teeth protruding from its lips.
The "elf" wore a rotten leather armor that smelled of blood and foul odor, and had sharp claws, one holding a tattered rusty dagger, and the other in a small fiber bag, which had several holes, and it could be seen that there were seven or eight angular stones inside.
"There is more than one, we seem to be surrounded." Ron exclaimed.
As soon as he finished speaking, these things were already attacking them.
