Harry Potter Fantastic Beasts Illustrated Book

Chapter 173 George and Fred's Little Coup
Coming out of the History of Magic classroom, David took a deep breath, trying to wake himself up.

Professor Binns was as stable as ever. If he finished a class, if there were more than three people awake, he would be considered a loser.

"David, will you come with me?"

On the way from the classroom to the auditorium, Professor McGonagall hurried to David and said.

Snape's research came to fruition?

Seeing the joy on Professor McGonagall's face, this thought immediately popped into David's mind.

After talking to Hermione and the others, he hurriedly followed Professor McGonagall towards her office.

"Professor Snape discovered the reason for the mutation of animals in the forest?"

After there was basically no one around the corridor, David asked curiously.

Professor McGonagall said in a relaxed tone: "Snape just sent the news this morning that he has extracted the culprit from the acromantula's body that made them go crazy."

Professor Snape is quite capable.
David admired in his heart, and followed Professor McGonagall into the office.

Only Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout were sitting on the chairs beside them. They saw Professor McGonagall and David coming and nodded with a smile.

After sitting for a while, hurried footsteps sounded in the corridor, and it was Snape.

The closed door was flung open, and Snape entered.

The long hours of work made his eyes bloodshot, his face was tired and pale, and much of his already greasy hair was twisted together.

"Have they all arrived?"

Snape looked around, a smug smile on his lips.

"It's all here, you"

Before Professor McGonagall could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Snape waving his hand. He was very confident now.

"It's all here, then I'll start." Snape fumbled in his robe, and took out a small bottle, which contained wisps of red gas.

"That's what makes those damned creatures mutate." Snape said, shaking the bottle, "they're constantly swimming in the acromander's blood, stimulating their killing instincts, making them keep attacking other creatures .”

Everyone's eyes were all attracted to the red gas, which was divided into strands and remained still with clear boundaries.

Professor McGonagall took the bottle and looked at the sunlight, and said, "Do they have a lot of gas like this in their bodies?"

"Not much." Snape shook his head, "I've used many methods to verify that only one wisp can be extracted from an acromantula."

Professor Flitwick looked up at the bottle and said, "Will the mutated animals return to normal when the gas is taken out?"

"Unfortunately, it's not that simple." Snape said, "If you want to extract the gas, you have to kill them all, and then release all the blood. There is no other way."

"Is that so?" Professor Flitwick was slightly disappointed.

"Then do you know its ingredients?"

Professor McGonagall shook the bottle vigorously, and the gas inside quickly mixed together, but slowly they separated again, becoming the original wisps and wisps.

"It's not clear yet." Snape pursed his lips. "I've never seen this substance before. It should be a mixture that someone has recently researched."

"David, have you heard of such a thing at Newt's?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"Can you show me?"

David reached over the bottle and looked back and forth, remembering what Newt had written in his notebook.

Unfortunately, no similar ones were found.

"Can you open it and take a look?"

David asked Snape.

"Yes, but be careful."

Snape reached for his wand as he spoke.

very dangerous?
Snape's vigilant look made David slow down and carefully uncorked the bottle.

The traces of red gas inside came alive in the blink of an eye, like a bug, quickly twisted its body and rushed out of the shackles of the bottle, and quickly flew around David.

When Snape moved his wand, a transparent cover appeared around the gas, and they immediately stopped and stopped moving.

"Are they alive?" David said in amazement.

"Not sure yet," Snape said, "but they are attracted to living objects."

"Does it affect people too?"

"Then I haven't tried it yet, do you want to try it?" Snape sneered.

As if afraid that David would have such thoughts, Professor McGonagall hurriedly took the bottle from David.

"Professor Sprout, do you have any ideas?" Professor McGonagall asked.

Professor Sprout pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've never seen such a substance before."

"That's troublesome." Professor McGonagall shifted his gaze to Snape again.

Snape snorted with an ugly face: "I can try to separate it, maybe I can find the corresponding potion to neutralize it."

"Then trouble you."

Professor McGonagall smiled and handed the bottle to Snape.

This is when there was a knock on the door, the sound was as loud as someone beating a drum outside.

Snape's face became more and more gloomy. He opened the door and said coldly, "What's the matter?"

A student was sweating profusely outside the door, panting loudly while leaning on the wall.

Judging by his height and clothes, he should be a senior Slytherin student.

The student's Adam's apple slipped, and he swallowed hard, slurring his words nervously: "Professor."

In front of the deans of other colleges, the students of his own college behaved so poorly, which made Snape even more angry.

"Speak well!"

The student lowered his head, raised his shoulders, took a deep breath, and gradually calmed down: "Professor, the mermaids in the Black Lake are crazy. They are attacking the windows of our lounge!"

"What!" Snape's pupils dilated instantly, "How long has it been?"

"It's been about half an hour. There are already cracks on the windows, but we haven't been able to find you in front of us. I just heard someone say that you are here, so I ran over to find you immediately."

Snape raised his eyebrows, put the bottle in his pocket, turned and left with the Slytherin students.

"Let's go see too."

Professor McGonagall and the others followed through the maze-like corridors, and soon came to a group of reunited students.

Ahead of them lay a wet stone wall.

Snape arrived a little earlier than them, and the Slytherin students were talking about what happened in the common room.

"Quiet."

No matter which college the students were afraid of Snape, the moment he opened his mouth, the noisy crowd immediately shut their mouths.

"I'll go in and have a look."

The Slytherins pushed and pulled to make way for Snape.

David followed closely behind Professor McGonagall, and under the unfriendly eyes of the surrounding students, he slowly walked to the back of Snape.

"Pure breed."

A stone door hidden behind the stone wall opened slowly, and Snape walked in with a few strides.

Inside was a low, stone lounge with a green lamp hanging from the center.

There are several windows on the right wall of the room, leading directly to the Black Lake, through which Slytherin students can watch the lovely animals in the lake.

But at this time, there were only scary-looking mermaids outside the window, and they waved their forks and knocked on the window one after another.

There was only the sound of bangs and bangs echoing throughout the room.

"They're also infected."

Professor McGonagall took a closer look, and the eyes of the mermaids outside the window turned red. This was the first time an intelligent creature was infected, and the situation got worse.

"Damn!"

A window had begun to crack, and the mermaids were still knocking on it tirelessly.

Snape pointed his wand forward and uttered the spell, and the glass cracked by the mermaid returned to its original shape, and it was strengthened a lot.

“What a hassle”

Snape's wand shook slightly, and a little bit of ice appeared on the window, and gradually began to spread to the surrounding area.

He was going to get rid of all these "disobedient" guys.

"Professor Snape!"

Professor McGonagall sternly stopped Snape's behavior and restored Snape's frozen lake to its original state.

"Dumbledore has made an agreement with the mermaids, we can't hurt them."

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Snape's mouth, and he glanced at the mermaid outside the window: "I'm not the first to break the agreement now."

"But they're not willing to do it, and you know why, we just need to reinforce these windows now, they're impossible to break."

Professor McGonagall's words made Snape extremely annoyed, he stared angrily at the mermaid outside the window, the wand in his hand didn't fall down for a long time, but he didn't do anything else.

"careful!"

Professor Flitwick, who was waiting to eat melons, suddenly had his pupils dilated, and drew out his wand at an astonishing speed, reminding everyone.

At this time, the red-eyed mermaids outside the window respectfully gave way to a passage.

A burly, crowned merman swims to the window with a trident in hand.

He glanced around through the window with staring red eyes, his mouth was split open to reveal the incomplete yellow teeth, his hands were raised above his head, and he slammed down the trident tightly.

"quick."

Professor McGonagall shouted, and the spells in the hands of several professors waved at the same time.

The trident fell rapidly, and the moment it collided with the glass, a dazzling light burst out from its tip.

Although Professor McGonagall and the others had quickly cast a few reinforcement spells, the window was still shattered into a pile of pieces under the impact.

"Get out!"

The Slytherin students crowded at the door didn't understand what happened, and ran out in a panic under Snape's yell.

The lake water that had been silent for a long time in the black lake finally got its vent, and they frantically poured into the house through the broken windows.

The wands of Professor McGonagall swiped up tacitly at the same time, and pointed forward again.

A transparent wall of air emerged in front of the turbulent lake, and the lake was blocked there, unable to move forward.

But after the mermaid holding the trident broke the other windows, a large number of mermaids swam into the house with him.

"We have to get rid of him right away!" Snape said in a deep voice, "If I let go, can you hold back?"

"No." Professor McGonagall shook his head. Slytherin's lounge was built at the bottom of the Black Lake, and the water pressure was extremely high. If Snape let go, they would immediately be blown away by the huge pressure.

"David, go and call the other professors over quickly."

The mermaid holding the trident has already begun to attack the air wall, and the layers of ripples on it have been shaken.

The lake water pouring into the house was also guided by the trident and squeezed against the air wall, and several of them couldn't help but cast spells in turn to strengthen the defense line blocking the lake water.

"it is good!"

David immediately turned around and walked back. He was going to find a corner where no one was there to use Apparition.

But a large number of students gathered in the corridor near the Slytherin lounge. When they saw David coming out, they all came together curiously and asked.

David resisted the urge to blast them away with his wand, and said loudly, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, please let me go first?"

Some people around him gave way to a small passage, but still some people didn't seem to hear them. David just moved a few steps and ran over to block his way.

"David, here we come! Your savior is here!"

Fred and George shouted loudly when they saw David surrounded inside from the back of the crowd.

"Help me!"

"no problem!"

Fred and George smiled at each other, and took out a few small balls from their arms.

It's a super deluxe version of the poop eggs they make with poop brought over from David's house.

It wasn't real shit before, but now
"David, squat down!"

Hearing Fred's voice, although David didn't know why, he paused obediently.

Fred and George threw the ball into the air, and with a bang, the contents flew around like fireworks.

"George, Fred!"

The recruited student yelled in pain, wanting to kill these two guys.

George and Fred blocked their noses, and while everyone was panicking, they groped in and rescued David.

Leaning against a deserted corner, David said disgustedly: "This is what you did with the poop you brought at my house last time? You really are."

"If it wasn't for it, you would be trapped inside!" Panting heavily, Fred raised his eyebrows nonchalantly, and then asked, "David, what happened to the Slytherin lounge?"

George was leaning against the wall in the same posture as Fred, his chest heaving violently. They had just spent a lot of effort to protect David.

Then there was a loud boom outside the window.

David swallowed the words on his lips, and stared out through the window above the corridor.

Layers of pitch-black clouds gathered above Hogwarts, a flash of light flashed, there was another thunder, and heavy rain fell instantly.

The same thermal imaging picture as before appeared in David's mind. Huge animals kept attacking the basilisk amidst the sound of rain.

"David, what's the matter?"

Fred blinked and gently pushed David's shoulder.

David woke up with a start, and immediately said, "Go and tell the professors to go to the Slytherin lounge. You must hurry."

After explaining, David strode vigorously and ran towards the forest.

Maybe it's what Professor Dumbledore said.

Hogwarts may really be out of business
