Chapter 563 Good Student Gabrielle
Generally speaking, Gabriel's magic power is still very good, and she knows a lot of knowledge КanhgeL?
But in some respects, she really needs Ivan's care.
Perhaps because she has been under the protection of Furong, she lacks common sense.
It is somewhat similar to Hermione, and likes to study very much.
For example, they were in the class of protecting magical creatures, and Hagrid walked over to everyone.
In his arms was a precarious stack of boxes, each containing a massive snail.
Everyone else hurriedly moved away, but Gabriel actually took the initiative to look up.
Ai Wen quickly pulled her back. When a normal person sees such a terrifying monster, shouldn't the first reaction be to run away in fear? !
Facing a snail that could explode and burn people at any time, it is not a wise choice to take the initiative to go up to it.
Now, under Hagrid's careful raising, the remaining snails are about three feet long.
Every strength is astonishingly great, and they are no longer fleshy and colorless, but have grown a thick, shiny, off-white armor-like thing, which looks even stronger than the previous armor. thick.
They looked somewhere between giant scorpions and elongated crabs, but it was still impossible to tell where the heads and eyes were.
"Evan, what is this?" Gabriel asked in a low voice, with curiosity shining in her pale blue eyes.
"Fried-tailed snails!"
"I've never seen..."
"That's because they were bred by Hagrid himself!" Ivan said, "Okay, stay away from them now."
Hagrid put the shaking boxes on the ground and laid them out in front of everyone.
"I have studied carefully. The reason why the snails kill each other is because they have nowhere to release their excess energy."
Aiwen doubts this, isn't it because of their inherently murderous nature? !
"To solve this problem, every two students have to tie a snail with a rope and take it for a walk." Hagrid said, taking out a snail and showing it to Gabriel. Tried it in the morning class and it worked really well."
From his appearance, he wanted to give Gabriel a good impression. He knew that she was a student of Madame Maxime.
Sure enough, Hagrid asked Ivan and Gabriel to help him demonstrate how to tie the rope to the snail.
"What are we going to do?" Gabriel asked, eager to try.
"Where to tie the rope, is it tied to its thorns, fried tail, or sucker?" Ivan said reluctantly.
"Chained in the middle!" said Hagrid, "you two need to wear dragonhide gloves as an extra precaution."
Under his bushy and shaggy eyebrows, his beetle-like black eyes shone with excitement.
He proudly explained to Gabriel the body structure of the snails, their living habits, places that need attention, and so on.
It can be seen that Hagrid is very proud of being able to breed a brand new species.
Gabriel did ask a lot of questions, too, much to Hagrid's delight.
A few minutes later, Alvin and Gabriel were walking on the lawn with a huge fried-tailed snail.
Every step is very difficult, the snails are extremely powerful, difficult to control, and they don't listen to their commands at all.
Instead, the two of them need to be on their toes at all times.
Every now and then, with a frightening crack, the snail's tail explodes, propelling it forward several meters, and even though the rope is long enough, Alvin and Gabriel have to sprint to keep up with the snail. Fried snails.
Being pulled by a whelk for a run is a unique experience.
As for the other students, many of them fell to the ground and struggled desperately to stand up.
If at this time, the snail suddenly turned around, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The lawn was in chaos, and Ivan saw Colin and Ginny being dragged forward by a bomb-tailed snail.
Everyone had a hard time, but Hagrid thought everyone was having a good time.
In fact, Gabriel may be the only one who is actually happier.
The girl ran around after the snail, giggling.
"They're quite interesting, aren't they?!" Gabriel said with a smile, "Hagrid is amazing. He can actually breed magical animals by himself. I've never heard of anyone doing it before. It's really amazing."
It is true that few people do this like Hagrid, because this kind of behavior is illegal, and the breeding process is very dangerous.
Take these fritter-tailed snails, for example, descendants of manticores and fire crabs. As the most dangerous magical animal, the manticore is not something that everyone dares to touch rashly. If it is not done well, it will easily die.
Of course, if the legality and danger are not taken into account, the snail is still of great research value from the perspective of species.
Gabriel obviously thought so, and she would never see such a magical creature in Beauxbatons.
Her brave and studious spirit is not only reflected in the protection of magical creatures class, but also in other courses.
For example, in Snape's Potions class, although Snape exuded a cold and terrifying aura, she turned a blind eye to him and kept raising her hand before asking questions.
Maybe Beauxbatons' potions professor liked it, but Snape definitely didn't.
In his class, there is a default rule that no questions are allowed.
He would write all the processes and materials for making potions on the blackboard, asking the students to bow their heads and study by themselves.
But there is obviously a problem. Most of the potion formulas and brewing steps that Snape wrote on the blackboard are different from those in the textbook. They are all optimized and improved by him. If they are placed outside, it will be amazing achievement.
But Snape wasn't going to explain to everyone how amazing this was, and young wizards didn't have the corresponding ability to discern.
They just had to do it, and understand for themselves why Snape improved so much in practice.
"Professor, I have learned this antidote formula before, and I didn't grind the moonstone into powder..."
"Obviously so, Miss Delacour!" said Snape icily. "You need to look through your Potions book again."
"But..." Gabriel wanted to continue to ask, it wasn't written like that in the textbook at all.
Ai Wen secretly pulled her, didn't this guy see the way other people looked at her? !
After Ivan stopped it, it didn't take long for Gabriel to raise her hand again. What Snape explained was completely different from what she had learned before.
Anyone who dared to interrupt Snape's lecture again and again would end badly in the end.
Everyone was sweating for Gabriel, this lovely cherub-like girl couldn't possibly be a match for Snape.
Fortunately, Snape was more scruples about Gabriel being Beauxbaton's student.
. His face was gloomy and terrifying, but he didn't say a lot, but chose to ignore Gabriel, just like he had always ignored Ivan and Hermione.
Unfortunately for the other Gryffindors, Snape had no qualms about them.
In order not to let Gabriel ask these questions and challenge Snape's bottom line, Ivan had to explain it to her after class. (To be continued.)
