"Pomona, are you alright? Is Miss Dupin okay? ”

No sooner had the great shadow passed than Sprout and Lisa heard Flitwick's voice immediately behind them. They hurriedly looked back, and saw that the other had come to their side from the hatch.

"It's nothing," Sprout, still holding Lisa's arm, said when he saw Flitwick coming, "Did you just see that?" Oh...... It's horrible! ”

"Yes, I'm fine, Professor Flitwick." Lisa answered.

"Well, it's okay!" Flitwick nodded, and then said to Sprout, "Actually, because the fog is so thick, we didn't see anything over there. It's just that a sense of oppression...... It's really unusual! ”

Speaking of this, he waved his hand and said:

"I think it's better to get away from the side of the ship! Also, there seems to be something to be discovered on Severus's side right now, so let's go over and gather it first. ”

"Really?"

Hearing this, Sprout subconsciously glanced at the railing again, and then nodded.

"Okay...... As it happens, we may have made some new discoveries on our side. ”

With that, she pulled Lisa and walked back with Flitwick—but had Professor Sprout noticed anything just now? Lisa, who was unaware of this, couldn't help but wonder a little.

When the three of them returned to the hatch, they saw Snape crouching beside the unconscious students. There were bottles and jars at his feet, and a mortar in his hand, grinding some material with a little force.

On either side of the hatch, Ens and Alexander were watching with great interest. Although Snape's level of potions is indeed worthy of careful observation, to some extent, the two of them are really a bit "heartless" in a different sense.

"Severus," Sprout approached two more steps, "how's the kids doing?" ”

I have to say, after all, it is Professor Sprout who has always put the safety of his students first. Even though Flitwick had mentioned that Snape seemed to have made a new discovery, the first person she asked was the student.

"Huh?"

When Snape heard this, he didn't stop pounding the medicine in his hand, but only took a slight pause in his mouth.

"You can't say 'it's not a big deal,' but ...... At least for the time being, there is no danger to life. "In the final analysis, it's a spiritual influence...... Maybe it's the one - didn't that McLean kid study soul magic before? I think it's the same type of power. ”

As he spoke, the material he was grinding in his hand seemed to have been processed, and as he spoke, he picked up a measuring cup at his feet, poured the thoroughly mashed material into it, and began to add other powders or liquids to it one by one.

Finally, he put the liquid that had been mixed into a slurry of half a measuring cup on the ground, and waved his wand to gently "ding" on the rim of the cup.

Immediately, everyone saw a burst of purple-black smoke steaming up, and the slurry in the measuring cup was suddenly transformed into a large cup full of lilac juice.

"One and a half ounces a person...... Wolf, feed them to drink. Snape walked up to Alexander with the measuring cup and stuffed it directly into his hand, "At the moment, there are no conditions for preparing potions, so we can only deal with them with the coarse mixture first, at least so that their condition will not continue to deteriorate...... Keep the extra ones for later. ”

After giving Alexander the measuring cup, he clapped his hands casually, and without bothering to clean up the bottles and cans on the floor, he turned and walked directly to Flitwick and Sprout.

"I'll be straight — I have reason to suspect that Helmo did it himself."

In the absence of the subjective need to conceal the facts, Snape has always been very straightforward in what he says and does, especially when certain matters are at stake for his own personal safety.

"So," he continued, "our greatest hope for now is to try to contact Professor McGonagall at McLean...... It's best to hope that she will gain something! Otherwise, we may be in danger of our lives next! In comparison, this small situation of students is not a big deal. ”

"This ......," Professor Sprout said, looking at him as he said this, "how can you say that?" The safety of our children is much more important than ours! ”

"Really?" Snape raised an eyebrow, "Hmm...... Isn't it, so I didn't already make a potion for them in the first place? ”

Although Snape didn't agree with this in his heart, to be honest, he wasn't stupid, and there was no point in arguing with Sprout about it. And he, who had expected this for a long time, had already taken the initiative to make temporary concoctions for the situation of those little wizards just now.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Sprout nodded immediately, and then turned to say, "By the way, actually, I also made some strange discoveries just now. ”

When Snape heard this, he couldn't help but raise his brow again.

"That big guy who doesn't know what it was just now appeared again?"

"yes!"

Sprout shook his head repeatedly:

"It's horrible, just passing by the side of the ship...... Maybe it's even more frightening because it's unknown! However, in fact, just before it appeared, Miss Du Ping had already discovered the changes in Hurricane Algae first! ”

At this point, she turned her head again and nodded at Lisa, as if to compliment her, before she continued:

"In fact, the collision and color development reaction of the hurricane algae that we see is very small, but the shadow that appears immediately after it is surprisingly large...... And, even if it's so close, we still can't see it for what it really is. I think, that huge shadow...... Maybe it's just a phantom! ”

Hearing this, Snapden said thoughtfully:

"That is, the shadow has an ontology, and—"

"About the size of a man," Sprout gestinated, "I mean, the size of a normal adult." ”

However, judging from Snape's speculation, Professor Sprout's news does not seem to be good news.

Could it really be that Helbo himself came? So, why didn't he show up directly, but instead play these little tricks in secret?

Yes, compared to Helbo's strength, this bit of mist, phantom, soul magic and the like seems to be only a "small" means.

"At the end of the day, it's just speculation! Anyway, let's be careful! ”

In the end, it was Flitvier who said with such a half-reassuring and half-reminding voice.
