Chapter 441 Manticore (Modified)
For Hermione, who is from a relatively wealthy family, she feels that she is willing to work hard for the training class and Alan, not to mention that she has gained so many Muggle-born students in the process. Magical knowledge that is difficult for students to access.
For Hermione's refusal, Allen, who knows Hermione's character, was not surprised. He gently persuaded: "Hermione, I know that you want to fight for the rights of the house-elves, so you must first lead by example and accept yourself. You should be paid, otherwise how can you set an example for them? In addition, the financial management of the financial management of the Harris family, the wizards with the mark, and the scholarship in the training class also requires you to take responsibility. Deserved."
Hermione opened her mouth, not knowing how to refute, and finally had to accept the Galleon that Alan handed over again.
"You already have a specific idea, don't you? How should I cooperate?" Hermione, who likes to specify rules and regulations the most, immediately asked.
"For those young wizards who have been imprinted before and have joined the Harris family, they will be provided with a basic amount of Galleons every week, and then there will be an assessment every weekend, and they will be awarded points based on their academic performance in class. To help you complete the organization and management tasks to determine whether the quota will increase or decrease. Finally, at the end of the semester, select a few of the best ones to reward a set of H94 equipment sets. In addition, the training class is also in the name of the Harris family Set up some scholarships, that's up to you to decide."
Suddenly, Allen frowned, and he pressed his mark, receiving a message from his father Owen.
"Let's go back to the tower." Allen called Hermione, looking anxious.
Hermione immediately stood up, packed her schoolbag indiscriminately, and followed Alan with a few books in her hands. Her long disheveled hair danced rhythmically behind her with her steps.
"What's the matter?" Hermione asked hurriedly as they walked.
"They usually seldom use imprints to contact them. This time it must be urgent." Allen answered Hermione while feeling the constant messages from the imprints.
"Albert and Penello got a corpse of a five-star monster from the Ministry of Magic. It is very rare. When the organizers of the Three Witches Tournament were purchasing those magical creatures, someone brought them in and wanted to smuggle them out. , the result was that it accidentally escaped, and the Aurors spent a lot of effort to subdue it, but it was a pity that the injury was too serious, and it still died." Allen said quickly.
"Are you all right?" As soon as he entered the tower, Allen saw the white gauze wrapped around Penello's arm.
"A group of Aurors cooperated with colleagues from the Department of Management and Control of Magical Beasts to arrest them, but because the humming of this thing would make people stunned, 7 people died. Fortunately, Penello and Albert arrived in time. With their cooperation, they finally killed the monster, but one of them was scratched by its claws, and the other was stabbed by the poisonous thorns shot from its tail. Fortunately, they always had antidotes and healing potions on their belts, so they were not in danger of dying. .” Owen Harris said in a deep voice.
Allen looked at Albert's face and saw that Albert was still ruddy. Although he looked a little weak, he was obviously fine.
He held Penello's hand again, carefully inspected Penello's wound, and was relieved.
After turning around, Mr. Harris couldn't wait to urge: "Come and see this manticore, you have the experience of transforming into magical creatures with Animagus, see if you can use it superior."
Allen stood in front of a large long table covered with white silk cloth. This monster has a head with goat horns that looks like a human and a lion, a lion's torso, and huge bat-like wings, with scorpion-like tails at the end. Deadly Stinger.
A box fell on the table, Allen took out the experimental equipment inside, drew a tube of blood from the carotid artery of the manticore, and injected it into a glass vessel.
He tapped the glass vessel with his wand,
The blood inside swirled rapidly, and after a long time, it turned into a dazzling blue color.
"It can be used." Allen took a long breath, "The magic power in this blood is strong enough to maintain the transformation of an Animagus who has turned into a magical creature. Which one of you will test it first to see if the manticore is compatible with the manticore?" Your own match, otherwise the forced transformation may have unpredictable consequences."
Hermione looked at the horned head, which was almost between a man and a lion, and trembled all over. This appearance reminded her of the time when she took Polyjuice Potion and became a cat person.
The transformation of the animal or something was so scary that Hermione couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Penelope stared at the manticore with bright eyes. He had personally fought against it, and suffered under its hands. Its huge wings, sharp fangs, deadly stinger, Penello is impressed by his powerful jumping and skin that can almost repel all known spells.
How much he hated its strength when confronting it, and now Penello loves it so much.
"Great, if someone's Animagus could be a manticore, that would be great. You know, so many elite Aurors can't subdue him, and many of them have eaten a lot of money under its hands. Loss!" Owen slapped his hands and exclaimed happily.
Albert coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "This monster is obviously stronger than its kind. If Aurors who have not been trained and have no uniform equipment before the reform are used to deal with this matter, they will die. It wouldn't be just a colleague of the Department of Regulation and Control of Magical Beasts. Aunt Josephine was busy dealing with follow-up matters when she didn't come over. Although there was a reason for the incident, she didn't need to bear too much responsibility, but such a heavy casualty of her department , it is estimated that it will become a stain on her resume."
Lun said with a sad face: "Yes, Aunt Josephine also specifically explained that when we finish using it, I will send her the rest of it to the Department of Management and Control of Magical Beasts. I can barely use the levitation alone. Curse dragging the Horned Camel, but it is too difficult for me to get such a big guy over. After that, I have to be responsible for contacting newspapers and magazines and guiding public opinion. You know, recently because of the Tournament and Hogsmeade There are so many foreign journalists at the carnival, I guess I will have to work overtime for several days."
"So, let's speed up and complete the test as soon as possible. Are we going to use the test spell of the magic Animagus? I haven't had the chance to use it after learning it for so long." Penelope was eager to try.
Allen folded his arms and carefully observed each vessel. Only the blood in Hermione's test tube turned into a beautiful starry sky under the spell. Such wonderful colors can only be displayed if they are highly matched. The others were of various colors, but they obviously didn't match the manticore to a high degree.
Hermione's face was very exciting. She had no affection for this monster because of the monster's mix-and-match appearance of cats and humans, which reminded her of her previous nightmares. But on the other hand, she hoped to use a magic weapon creatures as their own Animagus. If successful, it would be the first to be done after Allen. She felt that she was far behind when it came to magic pets, if it worked out...
"Alan, apart from these magical animals belonging to magical creatures, can demons whose origin is not our world be used as Animagus?" Penello asked unwillingly. While she's not a good match for the manticore, she has an even more aggressive demon, the mantra.
