Harry Potter's Catastrophe - Chapter 452

The classmates were all talking about it, and there was no need for Carney to answer. They just gossiped about it themselves.
This matter soon became known to the whole school. Professor McGonagall talked about it at breakfast the next day, and strictly prohibited everyone from entering the Forbidden Forest or playing in places far away from the school.
The cancellation of visits to Hogsmeade on recent weekends has prompted a flurry of complaints, and was also banned during the previous Azkaban prison escape period.
Apart from bringing something to talk about for everyone, there is no change from a normal day, especially for their third-year wizards and below.
“Hagrid, Hagrid, Hagrid.” Carney ran to Hagrid’s hut. He came to ask Hagrid to bring some things to buy in Diagon Alley. Harry, Ron and Hermione also came with him.
“Hagrid went to the Quidditch pitch.” It was those little wizards again. They seemed to be watering the plants and working as free laborers for Hagrid, but in fact they must have some evil intentions.
“Didn’t you hear what Vice Principal McGonagall said this morning? You have to go back to the castle.” Carney couldn’t guarantee that the spiders in the Forbidden Forest would suddenly jump out and bite people.
“We’ll leave immediately after pouring the water.”
“I believe we had the foresight to bring brooms and balls.” Ron and Harry both brought brooms. They originally planned to sit at Hagrid’s place for a while and then go to the stadium to play ball.
When they arrived at the stadium, Hagrid was locking the door to the stadium. He was really locking the door. The Quidditch match for this semester was over. Now because things were unsafe outside, Quidditch had to be temporarily closed. Deng Bullido mentioned this.
“Hagrid, is that all?” Harry asked. Although there was less training after the game, they would have one less recreational activity if they were closed.
“Vice Principal McGonagall informed me to come over and close the stadium. I’m really sorry, but you can fly in from above, but I don’t recommend it.” Hagrid tied the key around his waist.
“Hagrid, are you going out to collect tomorrow?” Carney asked.
“Yes, there is not enough insecticide. There are too many small bugs. Just in the grass and my vegetable garden, the little spiders have begun to bite people.” He scratched to reveal the bitten area, which was just a little red. It’s no big deal to him, the little giant.
“Aragog won’t let them bite me. Something has happened.” Hagrid said worriedly.
“Hagrid, I suggest that you don’t go to the Forbidden Forest and get close to the spiders. Maybe they are fighting among themselves.” Ron got goosebumps thinking about the spiders entering the sea like a tide.
“Hagrid, when you go to Diagon Alley, please check if there is any snake-leaf clover.” Carney said.
“Xiao Hei, Snake Leaf Grass has indeed found the right method. I will bring it back to you.” They walked all the way to Hagrid’s hut. The few little wizards had disappeared, and they probably went back to the castle.
They stayed at Hagrid’s place for the whole afternoon. For Hermione, it was a change of reading environment, and for Harry and Ron, it was a change of place to play the Wizarding Cards.
Carney was also reading a book. The book Dumbledore gave him was an ordinary book, a theoretical book, and a very old book.
“Hey, you might as well be practicing magic while you’re playing here.” Carney said while drinking cereal.
“It’s magic training again. It’s so boring to cast spells in the air alone.” Ron was doing a divination for himself. They had trained before, which was nothing more than releasing magic into the sky or water until all the magic was consumed.
It was really a tiring job. The five of them were dancing wildly with their wands, and Carney was sitting on the side watching the fireworks. They tried for a few days, but they didn’t feel any benefit or change.
“Friends, this time is different. Although it is the same as before, but – you have a practice partner.” Carney was lazy before and didn’t want to transform his opponents for them to practice, because then he would have to replace the damaged transformation objects all the time. superior.
The deformed opponent cannot be too strong, otherwise the magic spell will have no effect on it, nor is it too weak, otherwise the opponent will collapse without seeing the effect of the magic spell.
Carney didn’t want to give five transformed opponents, and now there were only three. He happened to have nothing to do and read something interesting in the book.
“Who?” Hermione put down the book. She read a lot of spells, but there was nothing she could cast on them, so she could only read them as words.
“You?” Ron asked uncertainly.
“Of course not, your magic has no effect on me.” Carney walked out of the door, “Come on, the outside is big enough.”
“Touch!” A tree was broken by Kani.
“Hagrid, because this magic requires fresh trees, I hope you don’t mind.” Hagrid doesn’t mind. You folded it and still pressed it back.
Carney scratched the tree trunk with his wand, and the trunk was cut out at the height of a little wizard. Carney cut three pieces, and there were still several sections of the trunk and the top of the tree. There were too many branches.
Carney set the logs upright so they looked like stakes.
“Is this it? A wooden stake?” Ron felt that this was not a training object because it couldn’t move and was easily broken.
“Of course not.” Carney started to cast the spell according to the method in the book, and wet the entire wood with water. The green magic took effect, and the wood immediately changed.
Legs and arms grew out of the bottom and middle of the wooden pile, but no head grew out. Only young leaves grew on the top of the wooden pile, which looked like a green algae head.
“Your training opponent is here.” Carney finished the work with satisfaction. Like Apple, there are many same ideas in that book, the most of which is to give some kind of life vitality, such as trees.
There are also those that give animals magical powers to change their forms and give them other powers. Among these, only the magic of wooden men is feasible, and the requirements are not high.
For Carney, who has already experimented with apples, it’s simple. Trees are alive and it’s not difficult to make them move.
He also saw that there were fire people, water people, ice, stone people, etc., and thought that playing with ice and fire people in the forest was too difficult. It was the most difficult to make something that was originally inanimate alive. It’s almost like giving birth.
These wooden people are not said to have their own thinking. They only have the thinking of the original tree, which is to absorb water from the ground to grow and absorb sunlight for photosynthesis.
Now, of course, they are controlled by Carney.
“Cool!” Ron and Harry’s eyes lit up, wondering what kind of magic this was.
Dumbledore is right, magic is magical. Magical things may happen, or nothing may happen. Just like these wooden people, they are puppets without much consciousness now, and they will defend Hogwarts decades later. the backbone of.
“Where did you learn this magic? I’m sure I didn’t see any magic like this in the library.” Hermione said.
“The topic I’m studying is the book Dumbledore gave me.” Seeing what Hermione wanted to say, Carney immediately said, “I’ll read it back and let you take a look.”
