Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

The night in the Forbidden Forest is still so dim and dull, and occasionally the wind blows by, and the leaves rustle.

Inside the recessed ground deep in the Forbidden Forest, it was still a mess.Countless large and small eight-eyed giant spiders surrounded the re-arrival Maca, staring silently at him with eight large, gleaming eyes.

This is the third time Maca has entered the site of the Eight-Eyed Giant Spider since the beginning of this semester.He spent almost the entire summer vacation for the transformation of his blood.

You know, when in Blois, in addition to helping Willie take care of Raphaela's Dragon Kiss, most of the other spare time Maca is doing this research.

The gratifying thing is that the research on bloodline transformation is going very well, and the first attempt can be started tonight.

"Aragok, are you ready?" Maca asked calmly.

When Maca came back from France and came to the Forbidden Forest for the first time, Aragog and his wife Mossag met him again.

Originally, Mosag didn't agree with him. Asking him to send out his child was like killing him.

But when Mossag learned that if Aragog accepts the bloodline transformation, the born child will be stronger and more survivable, it quickly agreed.

In the forbidden forest, even the population of eight-eyed giant spiders, the survival rate of larvae is not very high.Mossag always loses his temper because of the sudden disappearance and death of children. For him, it is very important for the children to grow up healthy and healthy.

But even so, the "acceptance of wizard transformation" still made Aragok hesitate.

When Maca asked Aragok if he was ready, Aragok rattled around, obviously still a little worried.

"Don't worry, I also said that even if the renovation fails, there will be no problems." Maca comforted, "At most, I feel very tired and need a few days of rest."

The transformation plan Maca chose was based on the potions he was best at.

He took some of Aragok’s body fluids and blended it with the blood of the basilisk in a targeted manner. If successful, Aragog might not have too much change, but its children would treat the snake. Some magical properties of the strange are integrated into the characteristics of the eight-eyed giant spider.

However, this kind of bloodline transformation is indeed very difficult, even if the research process is quite smooth, Maca does not think it will succeed soon.

When Aragog said he was ready, Maca decisively injected the medicine that had been prepared into his body.

As time passed little by little, Aragog's state didn't seem to have changed much, it just slowly became wilted.From the beginning, standing, gradually became lying on the ground.

"I feel... lack of strength." Aragok clicked.

"I think the first attempt failed." Maca patted Aragog's leg, then took out a bottle of potion and handed it to its mouth, "Drink this, and then rest for a few days. It will be restored soon."

The failure of the first attempt did not cause too many accidents to Maca, which is normal.What he needs to do is to re-adjust and reform the formula according to the data collected in this attempt, nothing more.

...

In the early morning of the next day, the sun rose as usual, casting the first rays of the sun toward Hogwarts, dispelling the tranquility brought about by the night.

Maca got up from the bed, finished washing in a hurry, and walked quickly to the greenhouse.

Although Wei Li has dropped out of school, the care of those flowers and plants still continues-there are a lot of potion materials that Maca has planted herself, and if she is not careful, she will lose a lot.

If in the old days, there must be no one at this early, but today there is an unexpected guest in the greenhouse.

"professor?"

As soon as Maca opened the door of the greenhouse, he saw Snape who was checking the herbs in the greenhouse.

Snape nodded at Maca expressionlessly.

When Maca was about to do his own business, unexpectedly Snape spoke up.

"How is the situation with Wolf Potion?" Snape asked.

"The progress is good, Professor." Maca turned around and replied, "Although the preparation process is very complicated, there is not much difficulty in pharmacology."

"Yeah." Snape nodded, then lowered his head to continue checking the herbs.

When Maca saw this, he wanted to go back and fiddle with his own affairs, but after another thought, he stopped.

"Professor Snape, there is a kind of flower I think can you help me see it?" Maca asked.

He was referring to the flower seeds that Willie asked him to try out last semester.After that, Maca continued to check a lot of information, but did not solve the original doubt.

He thought, maybe Snape, a potion master, would know it, maybe.

"You should ask Professor Sprout for this kind of question." Snape raised his head, impatiently.

But even though he said so, he still walked towards Maca.

The flower species that Maca tried to plant before had already grown some stems and leaves. They looked ordinary and would not move around like other magical plants, nor would they suddenly spew out gas or the like.

Just like some Muggle plants, they just broke out of the soil and stood there quietly.

But if you look closely, you will find that their branches and leaves have a faint psychedelic glow, and people will stare at it for a long time without knowing it.

At this point, even Snape was hit.

Maca had to pat Snape's arm to remind him.

"You can't stare at those Guanghua, it's easy to get stuck." Maca said.

Snape looked away and stood still thinking for a moment before speaking.

"I haven't seen it, nor do I remember any references to this plant, but it should have a strong psychedelic effect." Snape said solemnly, "When they bloom, you must do this. Get ready."

Maca nodded immediately.

"...You can ask Professor Sprout again." Snape suggested.

"Actually, I have already asked, and she doesn't know what kind of flower this kind of flower is." Maca said. Perhaps it is a new species cultivated by humans."

Snape gave an "um", glanced at the plants again, and walked away.

When he came to the greenhouse this time, he came to select some herbs for the lecture.Although he always kept his face cold and didn't like students asking questions in class, he was always well prepared for teaching.

Snape was a qualified potions professor, which Dumbledore personally recognized, and his vision was rarely wrong.

The time before breakfast passed quickly, and when Maca finished packing his tools, he hurriedly left.And Snape had already gone back to the office when he was halfway through.

After breakfast, today’s first class is Professor Lupin’s Defence Against the Dark Arts class.

Lu Hu walked into the classroom on the class bell. He watched everyone smile and put his tattered suitcase on the desk.

His dress was as shabby as he came, but he looked healthier than when he was on the train, as if it was because he had eaten several meals sturdily.

"Good morning, everyone." He said, "please put all the books back in your schoolbag. Today is a practical class, you just need to hold the magic wand."

The whole class immediately put the books back into their school bags, and everyone seemed very excited, because they had never taken a practical lesson on Defense Against the Dark Arts.

This sounds really new.

"Then," Lupin said, seeing that everyone was ready, "Come with me!"

Everyone stood up and followed Lupin out of the classroom.

He led them along an empty corridor, turned a corner, and walked into another corridor.Soon, he stopped, just outside the faculty lounge.

"Please go in." Professor Lu Ping said, opening the door and taking a step back.

The faculty lounge is a long place full of different sets of old chairs. It looks very spacious and the windows are large, which makes it always bright.

In the deepest part of this room, against the wall, there is a large closet. It shakes from time to time and bangs against the wall. It seems that there is something in it.

"Why did I forget about this! I knew I should have escaped this class..." Maca shook his head and said in his heart, "Unless everyone wants to see what Bogut's body looks like."

"Don't worry." Professor Lu Ping said calmly, because some of the students looked a little nervous, "There is just a Bogut inside."

"Borgert likes dark, enclosed spaces," Professor Lupin said. "The wardrobe, the void under the bed, the cupboard under the sink-once I met a Bogut hidden in the old clock of the ancestral house. ."

"And this one moved in yesterday afternoon. I asked the principal to ask the faculty if they could not alarm it, so that my third grade students would have some practical opportunities."

"So, I think what everyone should know in advance is—what is'Bogut'?" Lupin asked, looking at the students.

"It is a deformed creature. It will see through your heart and become the thing you fear most." A Ravenclaw boy replied.

"Yes, that's right, it's correct!" Lupin smiled and nodded.

He paused, then glanced at Maca standing behind, and suddenly said: "Mr. McLean, I always hear other professors say that you usually have a deeper understanding of some knowledge. I don't know what you want to add. Is it?"

Maca looked at Lupin and said, "It can't be said to be a supplement, this is just a guess-Bogut deformed to frighten people, perhaps because they feed on human fear, not the wizarding world. Generally believed to be self-defense."

"Of course, this is just a speculation by some wizards and scholars, but I personally think that this speculation does make sense."

"Yes, this is just a guess. McLean is right." Lupin nodded. "But this is a good research topic, which involves a lot of very profound knowledge. I hope everyone can use it in the future. understand."

"Okay, then next, I want to..."
