Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 122
Just as Lupin, who had turned into a werewolf, rushed towards Maca again fiercely, Maca backed away, while pointing the tip of his wand firmly to the ground between Lupin and him.
"Bone to pieces!" "Bang!"
With a blast, a large chunk of mud and rocks mixed with the turf splashed, and Lupin, who was rushing towards him, was enveloped in it.
Although the momentum is quite big, it obviously won't cause any harm to the werewolf, this kind of behavior seems to be unnecessary.
But in the next moment, Maca pointed his wand in Lupin's direction again-more precisely, he pointed it at a large mass of mud hitting Lupin's arm!
What is he going to do?
If someone is watching at this moment, then there must be such doubts.It's just a pity that there is no audience here, and no one can see the spell application skills he will show next.
The mud mass was deformed in mid-air, and quickly wrapped around Lupin's left arm, turning into a metal ring shining brightly.
"Floating into the air!"
This was the last curse. Maca controlled the hoop and directly let Lupin's feet leave the ground.Immediately afterwards, he slammed his wand, and the hoop dragged Lupin into a fit and fell to Maca's feet.
Maca, who had been waiting there, raised the needle held tightly in his left hand, and steadily stuck it on the side of Lupin's neck, pushing the medicine into his body.
This is a beautiful combination of spells, each spell is closely followed by the next, quickly and accurately, and subtly weakens the effect of the spell directly on the werewolf to avoid it.
Regardless of the type or power of the magic spells used, they did not exceed the scope of what ordinary students could learn.In theory, any senior student in Hogwarts can do it.
Lupin was still struggling after being injected with the medicine, trying to get up from the ground, and after a while he finally fell asleep.
I have to say that the various resistances of werewolves are really terrifying.
Seeing that Lupin had calmed down, he had time to take a look at the castle, and then dragged Lupin all the way to Hagrid's hut with a floating spell.
Soon, he found Blake, who had turned back into a human form, under the beating willow, but he did not find any traces of it here.
"Where is Peter?" Maca asked Black, who was sitting next to the secret road.
In fact, he had guessed it roughly without asking.
"...He ran off again!" Black's eyes flashed with anger, and the dirty face was terribly grim.
Maca glanced into the secret tunnel that had been opened, and could not see anything in the dark.Needless to say, Black must have searched the Screaming Shack, but obviously he didn't find it.
He turned his head and glanced at Lupin who was still asleep, his brows frowned.
Although Maca doesn't know when Peter Pettigrew escaped, it will definitely not be now.
To be honest, he didn’t care too much about this, because he had already made up his mind to face Voldemort on his own strength-that guy will definitely come back again, with or without Peter Pettigrew I’m afraid the result will be similar. .
But now things still deviated from his expectations, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Although he has left behind, Peter's escape time is inexplicably advanced, but an unknown factor has been added to the original plan out of thin air..." Maca kept thinking in his heart, and shook his head after a while. "Forget it, let's find out about Lupin first!"
"I'm afraid this has nothing to do with Peter Pettigrew's escape..." He couldn't help thinking so.
The potion of wolf poison needs to be taken in advance, and it will definitely not work if it is poured down.
As for the period of weakness after turning back into a human form, it doesn't matter much.
At the urging of Maca, Black took Lupin and him to the Screaming Shack, so as not to let those who came out to search find them.
It wasn't until the sky shone that Lupin gradually recovered his body.
"Professor Lupin?" "Lupin."
Maca and Black shouted at Lupin who had just opened their eyes.
"Um...how..." Lupin understood it by himself when he was halfway through his words, "I'm transformed again? And it's still...Is the wolf poison potion not working?"
He raised his head hurriedly, just about to ask something, but he immediately saw Black.
"Sirius?"
Blake nodded silently, as a greeting.
Lupin looked at him intently, with a certain suppressed emotion in his tone: "Why did you come out, Sirius?"
There was no expression on Black's face, and he sat motionless.After a few seconds, he said dullly, "I have to do something..."
Maca on the side couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Professor Lupin, he came out to catch Peter Pettigrew."
"What?" Lupin turned to Maca suddenly.
"Do you know Ron's pet mouse?" Maca asked back, "the one called'Spotted'."
There was a hint of surprise on Lupin's face, but that was all.This shows that, in fact, he has already had some speculation in his mind.
"That is to say--but--" Lupin turned his head back and looked at Blake intently, as if reading his mind, "Why didn't he reveal the truth before?"
"Unless—" Lupin's eyes suddenly widened, as if looking at something other than Black, the focus of his sight wandering in the air before his eyes.
"Unless he is the one...unless you...change it without telling me?"
Blake raised his head and stared at Lupin's face, then nodded slowly.
Regardless of his physical weakness, Lupin struggled to get up and walked to Black, grabbed his hand and pulled him up hard, and then they hugged him like two brothers.
"Friendship between men?" Maca stroked his chin, revealing a contemplative look.
The two patted each other on the back, and then sat down separately. It seemed that they needed to have a good chat-especially about Peter Pettigrew.
"Professor Lupin," Maca said first, "I think, before then, I have to understand the problem of the wolf poison potion...Is the medicine bottle still on your body?"
"It's in my office, but it's not lost yet. Let's take a look at it later." Lupin said, "In fact, I also want to know what went wrong... I hope I didn't hurt anyone. "
Maca shrugged and said, "It shouldn't be. You just jumped out of the window as soon as the howl of transformation was over, and then you rushed towards me, there was no chance to hurt others.
"Oh—" Lupin asked nervously, "Are you okay?"
"Of course, I injected you some medicine that can make you sleepy. There is no problem." Maca said, spreading his hands and saying that it was nothing.
Lupin had long been accustomed to Maca's weird performance. After he confirmed that Maca was not injured, he couldn't help but knocked on the hoop that was still hanging on his arm.
"So, what did you do to me?" he couldn't help asking.
"You know, the werewolf's skin is very effective against magic, so... I can only rely on other things to knock you down." Maca explained, "Otherwise, I want to approach a standing werewolf really It’s a very difficult thing."
"...I really want to add some points for you." Lupin said bitterly.
"Then there is no need," said Maca, and stood up, "Professor Lupin, and Uncle Black, you are here to reminisce about the past, I will go back to have breakfast first."
The two looked at the back of Maca's departure, and couldn't help but glance at each other, with a trace of wonder in their eyes.
...
The Easter holiday does not really relax people.
There have never been so many homework assignments for third-grade students. Neville seems to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown, and he is not the only one.
"This is also called a holiday!" Seamus Finnigan yelled in the common room one afternoon. "The exam is still far away. What are they doing?"
But no one is as busy as Hermione.
Even though she no longer takes divination classes for some reason, she still takes more classes than anyone else.
In the evening, she was usually the last to leave the common room; and the next morning, she was the first to go to the library.She already had shadows under her eyes like Lupin's, and the endless busyness seemed to make her a little bit unstretched, giving people the feeling that she would shed tears at any time.
Ron has taken the matter about the Buckbeak case.
When he was not doing his homework, he was engrossed in reading thick dossiers. The titles of these dossiers were: "The Psychological Manual of Eagle Head, Horse Body and Winged Beasts" and "Poultry or Monster?", "Study on the Brutality of Eagle Head Horse Body Winged Beasts", etc.
He was completely immersed in it recently, and even forgot to be a little bit fierce towards Crookshanks.
At the same time, Harry had to squeeze time out of Quidditch training every day for homework, not to mention endless discussions about tactics with Wood.
By the way, the game between Gryffindor and Slytherin will be held on the first Saturday after Easter.
As for Maca, after he detected the sugar in the potion bottle of the wolf poison potion, he already had a count-it must be the tricks of Peter Pettigrew.
Although I don't know when and how he did it, the suspicion is almost obvious at a glance.
And now, he has probably ran to his old master to show his loyalty-or simply seek refuge, who knows?
It was useless to think about it. Maca decided to settle the Buckbeak issue first.Although he missed a whole day because of the accident, it was not that urgent after all.
