Chapter 149: Cedric's unbearable experience

Professor Quirrell's matter didn't keep them discussing it for long.

Because Cedric told them that the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor before Oron was worse than Quirrell.

He had just entered the school at the time, and he was still a freshman with dreams and dreams for Hogwarts.

The beauty lasted less than two days, and during the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, their professor at the time cast a curse on them in the name of teaching.

Vomit curse.

Longhorn Charm.

Hairy spells.

Soft leg charm.

Skull Expansion Spell......

He's been through it all.

Although the professor had eliminated the negative effects of the spell in time each time, he had not caused any substantial damage to their bodies. But the feeling when I was under the spell was very uncomfortable.

Especially the skull expansion charm, the discomfort of spinning the world, Cedric still remembers it vividly.

In addition, the opponent will divide the people who are taking classes at the same time into two factions in the academy, and set them against each other and duel with evil spells.

So every time he took a Defence Against the Dark Arts class, it was a kind of torture for him, and it would take several days to recover.

Thankfully, it didn't last long.

According to Cedric, on Halloween, a large group of heavily armed men stormed Hogwarts and took the professor away.

At first, everyone thought that the other was a dark wizard with bad intentions.

But it wasn't until a few days later that they learned from the Daily Prophet that the man was actually a fugitive patient at St. Mungo's Hospital.

And it's also from the Mental Injury Division.

……

After Cedric finished speaking, Kyle and Connor looked at him dumbfounded.

"It's true." Seeing that the two of them looked disbelieving, Cedric spread his hands and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask the Weasley brothers, they know too." ”

Kyle shook his head, silently distressing Cedric and the Weasley brothers for a second.

Sure enough, those who dare to apply for the title of Hogwarts Defence Against the Dark Arts professor are not ordinary people.

Comparing Cedric's experience to the table, Professor Quirrell's class didn't seem so bad.

And when it was time for the herbal medicine class in the afternoon, the magical No. 3 greenhouse made them forget about it directly.

It's a paradise of amazing plants.

Mandrakes, poisonous tentacles, pimple vines...... These plants, whose names were previously only heard, can be found here.

"We're going to repot the mandrake today."

Professor Sprout pointed to a row of deep-bottomed plates next to him and asked, "Now, who can tell me about the characteristics of the mandrake?" ”

Aki, who was in class with them, was the first to raise his hand.

"Mandrake is a powerful restorative." Qiu said without thinking, "It is used to restore the transformed person or the person who has been enchanted to his original state. ”

"Very good, Ravenclaw ten." Professor Sprout said: "Mandrake is an important part of most antidotes, but it's also dangerous, can anyone tell me why? ”

"Hearing the cries of a mandrake kills people." A boy standing in the middle blurted out.

"Exactly, Ravenclaw plus ten points." Professor Sprout said.

At the same time, she glanced at Kyle with some regret.

This kid is just too honest to just raise his hand in class, it's better to say it directly...... Just like the Ravenclaw boy just now.

It's a pity that this is a rare opportunity to add points.

Just as he was thinking about it, Professor Sprout suddenly noticed that Kyle hadn't let go of his hand.

"Oh, Kyle, do you have anything to add?" Professor Sprout asked.

"Yes, Professor."

"In addition to its crying, sun-dried mandrake leaves are also a dangerous thing for the Animagus," Kyle said. ”

"Yes, you're not wrong to say that."

Professor Sprout nodded, but quickly shook his head again.

"But it's not as dangerous as you think."

"In fact, the effect of sun-dried mandrake leaves on Animagus is very weak, and only long-term consumption in animal form can cause irreversible consequences," she says.

What is a long-term ...... It will take at least three years, and if the wizard turns back into human form during this period, the bad influences can be eliminated in an instant.

Moreover, there are not many Animagus in the wizarding world, and there are only seven people registered in the list of the Ministry of Magic. As far as I know, none of them like to let themselves be animals for a long time, let alone eat mandrake leaves.

So, while mandrake leaves do have an effect on the Animagus, the chances of it happening are very small.

With the exception of the gluttonous Banas a hundred years ago, there has been no record of a second case in the wizarding world. ”

"Is that so?" Kyle nodded thoughtfully, "It's that I'm thinking too much." ”

"No, I should say you read a lot of books."

Professor Sprout smiled and said, "I remember that it was only written in a very unpopular herbal book, what is it called?" ”

"Selected Medieval Herbs," said Kyle, "is what I saw from Mr. Scamander. ”

"Yes, it's the book."

Professor Sprout smiled and said, "Everyone only knows that Mr. Scamander is a great myrzoologist, but few people know that he is also a master of herbology. ”

"Hufflepuff plus ten."

Professor Sprout clapped his hands and said to everyone: "This is an extracurricular knowledge point, everyone just needs to know it, and there is no need to deliberately memorize it." ”

Then she pointed to the row of deep pans again and began to talk about the precautions for repotting the mandrake for a while.

"Four people in a plate, remember, be sure to wear earmuffs."

Professor Sprout advised: "Although the mandrake here is still young and its cry is not fatal, it can make you unconscious for hours.

I don't think any of you want to miss the first day of school, so be sure to wear earmuffs when you work, and I'll try to get your attention when it's time to clean up. ”

In the case of earmuffs, it is not difficult to repot the mandrake, just be careful not to stick certain parts of the body into its mouth.

Although the mandrake has no teeth in its mouth, it has a layer of hard keratin, and it hurts to be bitten.

Kyle grabbed a blade of grass and expertly pulled the mandrake out.

The little guy instantly shouted at the top of his voice, writhing his pale green body as he shouted.

It was much more moving than the others, and seemed to be very resistant to Kyle.

"Won't I just pick up a few leaves for you, as for it, it's not so stingy!"

Kyle muttered to himself as he pulled out a large flower pot from under the table and stuffed the mandrake into it.
