Chapter 992 Protective Measures and Confidentiality
"Well, thestrals are good things." Hagrid was a little incoherent. "By the way, when they are tamed, like this group, you won't get lost. Your sense of direction is amazing. Just tell them you want to go. where……"
"Of course, assuming they understand you." There was a burst of laughter from the Slytherin crowd.
Umbridge smiled indulgently at them too, then turned to Neville.
"You can see thestrals, can't you, Longbottom?" she asked.
"Yeah!" Neville nodded.
"Who did you see dead?" she asked indifferently.
"My grandpa," said Neville, very quietly.
"What do you think of them? That's what Professor Hagrid said about Wuwu and his ilk?" she said, waving a stubby hand at the black Pegasus.
At this moment, they had torn a large part of Hagrid's corpse "food" to the bones.
"Hmm!" Neville said nervously, glancing at Hagrid, "Well, they, um, look pretty good."
"Okay, students dare not admit to being afraid," Umbridge read, making a few more notes on the clipboard.
"No!" said Neville uneasily, "I'm not afraid of them!"
"It's okay." Umbridge patted Neville on the shoulder and smiled understandingly.
But no matter how you look at this expression, it looks a bit like a smirk.
"There, Hagrid!" she said again in a slow, loud voice, turning to look up at him, "I think I've got enough information that you'll have the results of your investigation within ten days. "
As before, she made gestures while speaking, and when she said "ten days", she stretched out her stubby ten fingers; ’, she pointed to her clipboard again, as if Hagrid was retarded.
Then, smiling even more smugly, looking more like a toad than ever under the cuckold, she hurried out from among the students.
All the Slytherins were laughing, Hermione was shaking with rage, and Neville looked confused and annoyed.
"That evil, hypocritical, perverted ugly bastard!" said Hermione angrily.
When she told Ai Wen about the protection of magical animals class, she seemed to be a little bit unable to control her anger again!
"You see what she's trying to do?" Hermione went on. "It's her half-animal trick again, she wants to make Hagrid a mentally retarded troll just because his mother is a giant, It's not fair, the class wasn't bad. I mean, it would be fine if it was another snail or something dangerous, but thestrals are good, I didn't expect him to show us thestrals. Honestly , for Hagrid, they are really good!"
"Umbridge said they were dangerous," said Ron.
"Come on, like Hagrid said, they can take care of themselves." Hermione said impatiently, "They've been living at Hogwarts for many years, and I don't think a teacher like Graplan would be around n Taught this before the .ets exams. But, they sure are fun, aren't they? Some see it, some don't, I wish I could see..."
She stopped abruptly, realizing what she was saying, and looking suddenly terrified.
"Oh, sorry, of course I don't want to, that's such a stupid thing to say!" said Hermione hastily.
"Ivan, is there any way you can teach that woman a lesson, like you did last time?" Harry said gloomily.
"She doesn't give us a chance now, and even the confinement is cancelled!" Aiwen said, finishing his history of magic homework, "Actually, as long as we do well in d.a. Mlitch hit back the most. Think about what Sirius said, she came to Hogwarts mainly to prevent us from doing combat training, and we are now training under her nose, doing what she and the Ministry of Magic don't want us Things to do."
"you're right!"
Time flies, and the twice-weekly Dumbledore's Army events have become part of many people's lives.
Harry, for example, felt as if he were wearing a talisman on his chest, a hot secret that sustained him through Umbridge's lessons, and even made him look at her horrible toad eyes and smile gently, making him Can ignore each other.
Evan was right, D.A. was resisting her right under her nose, doing what she and the Ministry of Magic feared the most.
Harry's performance in the event is really good, he is always the first to learn the spell, he is very talented in actual combat.
This is his strong point, and Ivan has noticed this for a long time.
He can even teach others now, helping those who are slow to learn, and sharing a large part of Aiwen's burden.
After learning the Disarming Curse, Iron Armor Curse and Petrification Curse, they now start to challenge more difficult spells, such as Stunning Curse, Obstacle Curse and Crushing Curse, etc., and start actual combat training step by step, first the confrontation between two people, and then Animals such as acromantula provided by Hagrid.
Except for Ron who has not been able to overcome the fear of spiders, the others have not panicked when they saw these terrifying creatures for the first time, and they can skillfully use various spells when fighting against the giant spider, even the first-year freshmen , which is a very rare progress.
In addition, Aiwen also uses transformation magic to transform into various creatures to fight with everyone.
The number of d.a.s continues to increase, and new members are introduced at almost every gathering.
After a spell class, Astoria apologized and explained to Aiwen why she did not join. She supported Aiwen herself and wanted to join them, but the main reason was that she cared too much about other people around her. If you don't have the courage to take the first step, it will take time.
Although it is a pity that people from Slytherin House cannot be recruited, Dumbledore's Army has now begun to take shape!
Aven has cast tight protective spells and curses to keep the secret from being revealed.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to use the Loyalty Charm on the Room of Requirement, he originally planned to hide the address completely, just like the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix.
Because of the increase in the number of people, and because of the Quidditch training, the training time had to be changed at any time, they could not inform other people of the activity time and learning content, preparations, etc. as before, because if people from different colleges frequently pass through Talking in the auditorium is easy to make people suspicious.
Hermione planned to give each member a fake Galleon, and she cast a change spell on it so that the numbers on it could change.
By then, everyone will know when the next event will be held! Browse and read the address:
