Chapter 117: Neville's Misunderstanding

Neville woke up in Ms. Pomfrey's infirmary.

Everyone was worried about his body, after all, it was rare for a wizard to faint.

Madam Pomfrey examined her for a long time, and finally determined that Neville did not have any problems with his body, but was much healthier than that of young wizards of the same age.

No one noticed that Neville had been silent since he awoke, and it wasn't until Miss Pomfrey said he could leave.

Glitter had known that Neville was fine, but he had been knocked unconscious by an excess of magic particles.

So he was in the hands of Madam Pomfrey and went straight back to the lab.

He wanted to see what Neville had created that caused such a huge movement of magic particles.

When Neville returned, Gretel was holding his lab report, which had taken up an entire room, and was fascinated.

"There is not much nutrient growth in the environment where the small-leaved grasses grow, so they must root their roots deeper and wider in order to absorb the poor nutrients more fully.

However, because of the growth characteristics of the microphylla grass, they still supply nearly half of the nutrients to the roots to ensure the survival and growth of the above-ground plants.

But for crops, today's nutrient uptake rates are fully up to par and are a bit too strong.

If this trait is not controlled, it will lead to the impoverishment of the land where the seeds have been planted.

Therefore, in the next experimental direction, I plan to induce them to transfer nutrients to the aboveground parts, and make up for the fallow time of the land with sufficient grain production.

Or inhibit its rooting rate, so that the nutrients of the land and the demand for seeds can reach a balance. ”

Listening to Neville's eloquent conversation, Gretel's eyebrows twitched, and he pulled his head out of the experiment log.

Neville's eyes were noticeably brighter than they had been before.

It is like a sword that has been dusted for many years, wiping away the mottled years, bright and sharp, and the whole person is full of vitality.

Overall, it looks similar to the honest image of the past.

Only the occasional flash of light can know the smart mind hidden under this shell.

In addition to the first time, Glitter also saw a little sadness in his eyes, but he was deeply suppressed in the bottom of his heart.

Seeing that Gretel had looked at it, Neville opened his mouth and swallowed it back.

Glitter was helpless, he was most annoyed by the people around him playing with him and stopping, just point directly, isn't it good to talk about something.

Raising his eyebrows, the increasingly sophisticated Regent used it decisively.

That's why he's not very popular at the Moldovan headquarters today.

No matter who it is, they don't like to be probed at will, even if Gretel is the leader.

In particular, he has obviously detected other people's hearts, and he still cares about him left and right, and he doesn't deal with it head-on.

(Penelope: That's right, it's me.) )

But against Neville, Gretel won't do the same.

After all, this little guy, he has seen all the efforts of this time.

Isn't it just to ask him to go to St. Mungo's to heal his parents?

Glitter never mentioned it, but not to pinch Neville.

After all, the Longbottoms are not like Harry, Harry's soul is just a parasite like Voldemort, which can be disposed of with a simple excision.

But the souls of the Longbottoms were tormented by Bellatrix with the Diamond Curse.

It even destroyed the self-healing ability of the soul plane itself for a time.

One can imagine how their souls were stirred.

For Neville, Glitter is extremely important, and he doesn't want to encounter any danger in the treatment process or leave any hidden dangers because of his mistakes.

At that point, even if Neville didn't hate him in his heart, it would be difficult for Gretel to forgive himself.

After all, everyone here is only his researcher, or his subordinates.

However, in Gretel's heart, he regarded a dozen people as important partners as Comrade Shuguang.

No one knows who these people will hold the future of the entire human world in their hands.

In the case of Neville, although there are still hidden dangers in the seeds he created, even so, the yield of a single crop has reached more than three times that of the same crop.

What does this mean, this means that as long as Neville's research continues and maintains this research enthusiasm and talent, everyone at the dinner table in the future will be inseparable from Neville's contribution.

And Neville's talent for botanical research is obviously not so easily drained.

In the past, amnesia from time to time did not stop his research.

Now that there are more magic particles, the whole person has been reborn from the inside out, and will only be more excellent.

In Neville's brain, Gretel saw Bellatrix torturing the Longbottoms.

That crazy crazy woman, after Voldemort lost power, in order to find Voldemort's traces, tortured his parents in front of the young Neville.

When the Aurors arrived, the Longbottoms were already on the verge of torture, but fortunately they were sent to St. Mungo's in time to hang their lives.

At that time, Neville was about to be stupid by that scene, a child who was not yet sensible, relying on the connection between the blood, felt the pain of blood relatives for life.

In order for Neville to grow up healthily, his grandmother began to use the Oblivian Charm on him since he was a child, with the aim of making him forget this memory and grow up healthy and happy.

In the years that followed, his grandmother used the Oblivion Charm several times to stabilize its effects.

This caused Neville to be forgetful and look stupid from time to time, and at one point, the Longbottom family suspected him of being a squib.

Fortunately, under the effect of the magic particles like the tide, Neville's whole person was healed.

This is also why his eyes are filled with sadness from time to time.

Because he recalls the scene where Bellatrix tortured his parents.

Then I thought that when it came time for Saint Mungo to visit his parents, the skinny Mrs. Longbottom, who had rarely calmed down, would carefully hand him a crumpled bubblegum wrapper with super blowing.

Neville was hesitant because he didn't know if he was doing enough, and he didn't ask for anything from anyone else since he was a child.

He believed in Gretel, and when Gretel spoke out to help him treat his parents, Gretel became the person he believed in the most.

Plus what Harry told him that Glitter could operate on people's souls.

He didn't doubt Gretel's ability, but he just estimated in his heart whether he had not done enough.

Glitter smiled angrily, this little fat man, the sequelae of the Forgetting Curse are not healed, and he is so stumbling.

Now that it's back to normal, it's still like that.

You must know that as far as his research is concerned, as long as he continues to study, he is a well-deserved food god in the Harry Potter world.

No matter what kingdom it is, it must be written into myths and legends and passed on to future generations.

"Mr. Neville Longbottom, am I not a very cold man." Gretel said with a chin on his lips.

Neville was still immersed in his own grief, and when he heard Gretel's voice, his head almost turned into a bobblehead, and he denied it again and again.

"No, Gretel, you're the warmest person I've ever seen at Hogwarts."

Glitter patted his head helplessly, forget it, this guy has never understood what a joke is.

Even if he is smart again now, the temperament he has cultivated over the years will not make him become a different person.

Gretel didn't actually do much, just stood up and defended him a few times when others laughed at him.

When he couldn't learn some of his homework, he lent him his notes.

Other than that, not much has been done.

The same is true of Luna Lovegood, even if Glitter is a little worried about the girl's strange talent, she can't stand by and watch others tease her.

If it weren't for Gretel's many maintenances, she wouldn't have been just hidden away from the collectibles she'd worked so hard to collect.

"Yes, I helped Harry heal his soul, but that's because Voldemort's soul is attached to Harry's soul.

But your parents are different, and I need to study for a while before I can come up with a suitable treatment.

So don't worry, by the end of this school year at the latest, I will definitely go to St. Mungo's with you to help you heal your parents. ”

Gretel's words reassured Neville, but Neville's immediate actions were beyond Gretel's expectations, so much so that he didn't have time to stop them.

"I, Neville Longbottom, swear by my soul and by the honor of the Longbottom family that if Mike Gretel heals my parents, I will remain loyal to Mike Gretel for the rest of my life until death."

Neville bit his finger and put blood on his brow, solemnly swearing a blood oath.

The moment the oath was made, the blood dotted on the center of the brow seeped into it in an irrefutable gesture, outlining a pattern like a twisted chain.

After a few flashes, it hidden.

Gretel's whole body was stunned, the oath that Neville had made was the oldest oath spell.

Once upon a time, it was used by wandering wizards when they pledged allegiance to their family wizards.

In a way, it's more like a slave contract than an oath curse.

Even Glitter learned about it through ancient magical manuscripts.

Dawn's latest oath spell is also a super weakened version of the spell he has transformed based on this spell, which is more suitable for multi-person contracts.

Because of the official launch of Dawn, in order to expand the recruitment staff, it is troublesome and somewhat impersonal to use the previous oath for core members.

In order to reduce the resistance of the peripheral members, Glitter modified it according to the ancient Oath Curse, which only limited the newcomers' loyalty to the Dawn, and minimally guaranteed that they would not betray the Dawn and damage the interests of the Dawn.

Gretel swore to God, and Neville swore that he was really stunned before he could stop it.

Neville didn't even think about the consequences of the oath when he swore it, causing Gretel to not even read his next thoughts out of his brain.

It was too late to get in touch by now, unless, he didn't save the Longbottoms from that madness.

But how could Neville agree, he was clearly showing Gretel his loyalty.

As for why this spell is called a contract of effort, it is because from the day this spell is actually established, the hidden lines will be completely revealed, just like the family lines that the slave owner branded on the slave.

This was an ancient family shaman's attempt to show ownership of his property.

"Mr. Neville Longbottom, can you give me a reason?"

Gretel frowned and looked at Neville.

He didn't like this kind of thing, which is why for so long he had been advocating that Dawn seek out like-minded people.

If it was simply to make Dawn stronger, he could have learned from the Death Eaters and used the Imperius Curse to control everyone.

Anyway, he is quite proficient in this spell.

Why bothered that when he was looking for a companion at Hogwarts, he relied on the [Master of Memory] to make up false memories for those who did not share his aspirations.

Neville's expression was not panicked, and even his brain didn't have any mood swings to allow Gretel to read any valid information through the Psychiatri.

Neville's expression was very respectful, "I didn't know much about it in the past, I only knew that what you asked me to study was important, but I didn't understand how important it was.

Why, Dawn counts Seamo, and there are thirteen projects in one time.

Only me and Seamus have received the most support from you.

Even most of the day, most of the time, we spent in the two of our labs.

But after waking up this time, I understood.

That's because Dawn is the backing of the dawn, and I and Seamus, one is food, the other is a gun.

Magic has long been out of the Muggle world, and it is not so easy to blend in casually.

So, you want to show goodwill to the Muggle government with a ration that will feed the whole world.

But at the same time, you also know that the Muggle world has been a topic of war since ancient times.

Seamus has the potential to be taken seriously by the Muggle government.

The day you have both hands, both hands hard, and all the carrots and sticks are in your hands, is the time for your official showdown with the Muggle world.

As soon as I woke up, I knew how important what I was studying now.

You can ignore the threat of what I control, but I can't ignore my loyalty. ”

Gretel pondered for a moment, he was tempted to tell Neville that he was wrong.

Although food is important, it is not as high as he imagined.

In the Muggle world, there is a group of people who can get the world out of the food crisis without relying on gods, magic, youth and sweat, and trial and error.

It's not wrong to show favor, and Gretel is indeed using this attitude to show favor.

He wanted to show the Muggle world that magic was not a threat, but a help.

However, Seamus, the master of explosions, is indeed a treasure that Gretel feels must dig deeper, as Neville thinks.

At the very least, the wizarding world has to have something that can make the country of the Americas sit down and negotiate.

Otherwise, the group of robbers who escaped from England would probably first consider how many dollars the wizard's scalp could be exchanged for.
