Chapter 106: A Brief Talk About Werewolves

"Why should I care?" William looked back, his expression a little confused.

"Werewolf wizards in their human form react to spells no differently than human wizards." He thought about it carefully, wouldn't it be the same to use a werewolf wizard or a human wizard for experiments?

"I mean, aren't you scared? Not afraid that I'll turn you into a werewolf? Lupin apparently didn't expect William to give such an answer.

"Why should I be afraid, this is the Friedrich family's estate, what do I have to worry about.

And I understand werewolves, when you were still human, you wouldn't become a werewolf even if you were bitten, right? There are still a few days left before the full moon, and I will prepare a wolf poison potion for you in advance.

I see what you mean, you're wondering why I didn't look at you in a discriminatory light, right? ”

Lupin nodded, since he became a werewolf himself, he had found that everywhere he went, people looked at him with discriminatory and disdainful eyes, and he hadn't felt such indiscriminate treatment in years.

"Because you're just an experiment with me, I don't need to discriminate against us, and I don't discriminate against werewolves. Actually, if you don't mind, I'd also like to study the werewolf's anatomy at the time of the full moon. ”

After William said this, he looked at Lupin with eyes containing curiosity, William has always been very curious about werewolves, this time he finally let him see a living werewolf, no matter what he said, William will not give up this opportunity.

"Okay, okay. I don't mind. Lupin still looked a little confused, and he subconsciously agreed.

"Thank you very much, then we'll see you in the lab later."

After saying this, William walked out of the meeting room, he still had a bunch of things to do.

"Please follow me, sir." Watching William leave, Lucy turned to Lupin and said.

...............................................

Werewolves, or also known as human wolves, are humans who are capable of taking on the form of wolves when the full moon rises. It is widely believed in modern wizarding circles that werewolves are caused by a magical disease known as berserk wolfism.

It is a magical disease transmitted through saliva and blood, and when a shape-shifting werewolf has germs of this disease in his mouth, when the werewolf's teeth are pierced into the victim's body, once the saliva in the mouth meets the blood, then if the person is lucky enough not to lose his life, he will become a werewolf.

As for who the first werewolf was, and what caused him or her to get the wolf, no one knows. Even the best experts in the history of magic can't give an exact answer.

William had read a paper by Professor Marlowe Foffon, a prominent scholar in the wizarding world, and he was the first wizard in modern wizarding to conduct a comprehensive study of the habits of werewolves.

In the paper, Professor Furfang pointed out that only werewolves on full moon nights can turn their victims into werewolves. If the victim is bitten by a werewolf who remains human, they will only show some werewolf traits, such as a penchant for eating bloody meat.

However, in that case, a bite or scratch caused by a werewolf, regardless of the form the werewolf was in at the time, would leave a permanent scar on the victim.

The reason why werewolves are so rare is because most werewolves will frantically bite their victims during the full moon, causing irreparable serious injuries and causing the victims to die directly.

Werewolf bites are extremely difficult to heal, and most victims die of blood loss before they heal. Only white fresh mixed with silver powder can have the effect of stopping bleeding.

In addition, some Muggle legends are not always true, and werewolves are not afraid of silver weapons and are not killed by them.

Because when they turn into werewolves, their body's healing ability will increase dramatically, and their skin will become full of magic resistance, and ordinary spells will not even be able to deal effective damage to them

Before the invention of the wolf poison potion, werewolves would definitely lose their minds when transforming, in fact, when the full moon came, they could not control their behavior at all, and they would forget their identity after transformation, and even kill their best friends because of their violent bestiality.

The most painful thing is that after turning back into human form, they can still recall everything they went through throughout the transformation process, as if they were playing a real horror movie in their heads.

Therefore, most werewolves will choose to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and be in the company of wild beasts.

Because not all wizards have an impartial and impartial attitude towards werewolves like William, you know, many bitten wizards would rather die than become a werewolf.

Not every werewolf has the savings to afford the expensive wolf poison potion, and most werewolves live their lives in poverty due to social prejudices.

In earlier times, some extreme magic schools did not even allow werewolf wizards to enroll in and receive a wizarding magic education.

William once saw a description of werewolves in Hogwarts: A School History, because there had been rumors in the British wizarding community that there were signs of werewolf life in the school's Forbidden Forest.

The book says that the union of two werewolves will give birth to a litter of real wolf cubs, which will grow up to be very beautiful wolves. They are indistinguishable from real wolves, but possess intelligence close to that of humans.

As a result, the rumored werewolves living in the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts are actually just a group of such wolf cubs, who were secretly placed in the Forbidden Forest with the permission of Headmaster Albus Dumbledore, and have lived there quietly ever since.

The school's teachers never tried to clear up the rumors because they felt it was necessary to keep the students away from the Forbidden Forest.

When I have the opportunity, I must go to the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts to have a look, William sat in the magic laboratory, quietly thinking, there are too many secrets in the Forbidden Forest.

"Young master, someone has already brought it over."

Lucy's voice rang out from outside the door, and William looked up to see Lupin, who was already two people behind Lucy, with smooth hair and a very delicately trimmed beard.

A handsome middle-aged uncle!

William smacked his lips, no wonder he was able to get Nymphadora Tonks of the Ministry of Magic later, and he still had a little hardware foundation.

William suddenly discovers that Sirius, Lupin, and Harry's dad are all handsome and dashing, what is this, like-sex attract?

No wonder they can form a prankster group, the Pathfinders.

Wait a minute

Who is Wormtail? How did he get in?
