Chapter 726 Wolfsbane Potion
( ) Penello pointed at the direction where Harry and the others were leaving. She raised one corner of her mouth with a hint of irony: "It seems that Harry and the others think there is something wrong with Lucius and Pansy, and a few Gryffindors are planning to take advantage of it." Their 'excellent stealth skills' track them..."
Allen, who had just communicated with Lucius through his mind, knew that nothing would really happen to these little lions, so he stopped asking any more questions. He handed over the large and small product boxes he held in his arms to Ying. After the fat man came forward, he saw Penello and remembered the conversation he had with her before entering the store. He thought of the other person's unusual and vague words at that time, and asked with concern: "What's the difference between you and the doctor?" Is there any conflict going on? Why can’t I see you both appearing at the same time lately?”
The fat man who was holding a pile of merchandise heard this and grinned like a girl. The wolf mother glared at him, forcing the guy to hide his fat head behind the boxes.
Then the wolf mother put her hand to her forehead with a somewhat embarrassed expression, and rubbed her somewhat painful forehead a few times.
"What are you doing?" Seeing the reaction of the fat man and the wolf mother, Allen was even more surprised, and then he noticed that Victor had quietly stood farther away just now, even though he was acting as a serious guard. He looked around and watched the situation around him vigilantly, but Allen found that he had deliberately not looked at the situation here at all.
"She still has some research to do at the Umbrella... Well, I think... well... it's just that we didn't happen to have the same time together..." Penello hesitated, his eyes wandering, and he didn't dare Look at Allen.
Hermione also noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and secretly wondered: "Is it because Penello thinks the doctor is beautiful and is worried that Allen will fall in love with the doctor? He deliberately moved the doctor away from Allen... ...No, the doctor just doesn't perform tasks at the same time as Penello...Wait! The doctor doesn't like the woman as well..."
Thinking of this, Hermione suddenly understood as she looked at the strange expressions of the umbrella members around her. She opened her eyes wide and stared at Penello's almost never-present uncomfortable expression and the unnatural rosiness on her cheeks and thought of a possibility.
Faced with Allen's concern and feeling the strange atmosphere around her, Penello felt miserable. In such an occasion, especially with Hermione still present, she really couldn't explain clearly what happened between herself and the doctor. The fingers of Penello's hands were intertwined, and he could not wait to get on his flying motorcycle immediately.
Looking at Penello's appearance, Hermione became more and more convinced that it would be very annoying to be pestered by a wizard she didn't like, but it would be even more annoying to be liked and pestered by an equally beautiful and powerful witch. It must be troublesome for Penello, and the doctor is a member of the Umbrella Team. The vicious methods Penello uses on others are not convenient for her...
Hermione had seen the distressed look of the wolf mother being harassed by the doctor. The somewhat gloating Miss Know-It-All resisted the urge to cover her mouth and turned her head away, not wanting Penello to see her forced smile. The fat man's identity is different. If he is seen by a female Auror and mistakenly thinks that he is laughing at her, Penello's reaction will be even more intense...
"Ellen, I still have a few favorite items that I haven't paid for. I have to wait for Ginny to come back and go shopping in Diagon Alley with her. See you in a few days." Hermione said and walked back to Weasley Magic The joke shop gave Penello a chance to explain everything to Allen in private.
Penello watched Hermione walk into the joke shop with a suppressed smile on her face. In a flash of her mind, she realized angrily that Miss Know-It-All had guessed part of the truth. Then she saw Alan's probing eyes and the expressions of the Wolf Mother team next to her. , feeling a little embarrassed, she felt impatient and blurted out: "It's all Umbridge's fault."
This made Allen even more strange, "Isn't Umbridge locked up in the mansion? What does the matter between you and the doctor have to do with her?"
"Well... this..." Penello hesitated, not daring to look directly into Allen's eyes, licking her gorgeous red lips uneasily, and twisting her hair scattered on both sides of her face behind her ears.
Allen became more concerned about Penello's abnormal behavior. He looked at the other members of the umbrella and found that they also had a blank expression at this time. He realized that something must be wrong: "You and Doctor Siyan What happened to Umbridge?"
"Ellen, let's go back to the mansion first...I'll take you there to take a look." Penello looked at Ellen's slightly frowned brows and serious expression, knowing that there was no way to hide it anymore, and then she faced the other members of the Umbrella Team. Ordered, "You stay here and protect Granger."
Then, Allen and Penello quickly apparated to a Gothic-style building. After experiencing the mansion's more complex and rigorous defense methods than Gringotts, they completed the tedious security check. Enter through the courtyard gate through the garden.
In front of the gate of the mansion where two giant guards stood guard, a petite man with short hair and glasses and four eyes was already standing there waiting to greet his boss. She was notified just as Allen and the others arrived and passed through those magical defenses. In order to greet Allen as soon as possible, Four Eyes did not have time to take off the experimental equipment on his body. The apron she wore outside her white robe was still stained with dripping blood, some of which had even turned dark brown. The dragon skin gloves on her hands were still dripping with blood, and there was still a piece of nerve from an unknown animal stuck to her wrist.
"Master." Siyan saluted Allen and then straightened up, waiting for the boss's instructions.
"Take us to Umbridge and show me around the laboratory." Allen glanced at Penello, who was silent, and then made a request like Four Eyes, and then the group stepped on the burgundy carpet He strode forward.
Four Eyes led Allen through the arched colonnade and led them straight to the basement. The wood-colored floor, which has been cast with an insect-proof and moisture-proof spell, has been polished with wax until it sparkles, and there is a magic crystal lamp on each pillar.
"The room on the left has been arranged as a living room. Mr. Remus Lupin and the werewolf friends he invited as well as the wizards who have independently tested new medicines occasionally need to stay here. Master, you know that many experiments are not The observation can be completed in one day." Si Yan casually opened the door to an uninhabited room. A set of small sofas, a wizard TV, a coffee table, a bed and some green plants gave the basement room an atmosphere. There was a feeling of vitality.
"The room on the right is the potion laboratory on the first floor. Today is the full moon, and those who came to participate in the experiment are all related to werewolves. Many of these werewolves also chose to spend this difficult time here, but this period Mr. Lupine seems to have a lot of things to do, so he didn't come here. He just received this month's potion some time ago." Siyan pointed, and through the large transparent glass window, you could see the staff in the laboratory He was gently tapping a werewolf on the shoulder. The werewolf, who obviously had no tendency to attack or lose control, drank a bottle of potion in one gulp under his comfort.
"Wolfsbane potion, this potion has no way to prevent the werewolf from transforming once a month, but it can limit his transformation process and make him become a sleepy ordinary wolf. Those werewolves who have remained kind The deepest fear is that he will go on a killing spree when he cannot control himself. However, the preparation of wolfsbane potion is very complicated and the materials are also very expensive. The previous situation made it difficult for these werewolves to obtain subsidies if they did not register with the Werewolf Registration Office, or they were not If he meets a kind-hearted potion master and confesses to him that his true identity is a werewolf, the werewolf will never have the chance to try to use this potion, so he can only continue to live a lonely and wandering life. In fact, except for a few lucky people, werewolves The poverty caused by status and the price of wolfsbane potion have given most werewolves little opportunity to take this potion before." Siyan said, taking out a bottle of the same color as the potion the werewolf took just now. A slightly different potion.
Allen recognized it as the wolfsbane potion made from an old-fashioned formula. He had prepared this kind of thing for Lupine many times when he was in third grade. Allen took another look at the situation in the laboratory and praised it with some satisfaction. Said: "The progress of your research is still good. I noticed that the lycanthropic patient inside completely changed into a werewolf instead of an ordinary wolf. He also maintained enough sanity and did not seem to have any out-of-control attacks. **, but judging from the fact that he was still taking the medicine just now, this potion is not as effective as the original Wolfsbane potion? Does it have to be taken multiple times to maintain it?"
Allen's insight and understanding of potions obviously made this research maniac very happy. His four eyes were different from his usual lack of emotion. He couldn't wait to add on this research topic: "Master, you are right, the experimental goal of this project The main purpose is to study and improve the formula of the original wolfsbane potion. We have arranged all the small-risk tests on this layer. We have used methods that have been confirmed to be basically safe through preliminary tests. There are already several relatively mature methods. The formula has changed. Compared with the original formula of wolfsbane potion, some of our newly developed wolfsbane potions are more flexible in terms of taking time. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net can be taken in advance or delayed. It works normally. This is actually the most practical version for ordinary werewolves. You must know that the original wolfsbane potion will have expired if you take it too early and wait until the full moon, or forget to take it too late and wait until the full moon. The effect has not yet fully played its due role.
Although the version taken by the werewolf inside is not as good as the original formula in hindering transformation, they will still transform into a complete werewolf at the full moon, but this formula can allow the werewolves to maintain enough sanity and Their humanity is not swallowed up by those bloodthirsty and chaotic attacking bodies, which even allows them to retain some language ability, although due to changes in the structure of their mouths, only a few people are now able to speak some words in this state. Words with sufficiently short syllables. "
"Your research seems to be quite effective so far." Allen was quite satisfied after hearing about the arrangement. "The version that allows for more freedom in taking time. If it is confirmed that there is no big problem later, Hermione and my aunt can manage and control the magical creatures. Department Director Josephine Harris contacted and cooperated with the Werewolf Registration Office she manages. We should not think about making any money on this kind of thing. It will be provided free of charge as a public welfare undertaking to those who want to return to normal life and have registered. Just a werewolf.”
