I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - Chapter 406
c401 The Alchemy of Voodoo
In the evening, burning candles illuminated the entire hut.
Ian sat at the table with a fresh toad in his hand, which he had also brought from Snape’s office.
Thanks to the research during this period, the most indispensable thing there is toads. After all, this thing is the best experimental subject for magic medicine.
Glancing at the turbid liquid in the crucible, Ian decisively put a strand of brown hair into it before it was about to boil, and then waved his wand, causing the flame below to turn into a weak fire and begin to simmer slowly.
While waiting for the potion to brew, Ian turned his attention to another item on the table – a bracelet suspected of being cursed by black magic.
To be honest, this thing was so sophisticated that he was almost deceived at first.
After all… most people really don’t feel much malice on the bracelet, just like Malfoy said, it’s just a little curse that causes a rash.
However, after careful inspection, Ian still felt something different. It was not that he saw any clues, but that he found a problem in the alchemy method of the bracelet.
In any case, Ian can be regarded as half of Nico Flamel’s students. After all, Dumbledore gave him a lot of Nico’s manuscripts and books, plus some self-taught knowledge. By analogy, he saw something on the bracelet. Alchemical traces of voodoo.
Voodoo, also known as Voodoo, is a primitive religion that originated in West Africa. However, with the beginning of the Great Navigation and the Golden Triangle Trade, a large number of black slaves were captured and sold, which made Voodoo who once worshiped their ancestors , gradually turned into an alchemy faction focusing on black magic.
The most famous among them is the voodoo doll, which can cast the most vicious curse with just one hair of the opponent.
All of this is recorded in detail in Nico’s notes. Nico even personally visited West Africa for inspection. Although it was only a few words, the blood and atrocities on that land were also revealed between the lines.
There is even a sentence at the end: Be sober and watchful, like a roaring lion prowling about looking for someone to devour.
Back to business.
The alchemy products of Voodoo are either dead or injured, and there are no jokes like small evil spells at all, and this is the reason for Ian’s anger.
What he has to do now is to verify the curse on this bracelet.
Although subconsciously I don’t think anyone would dare to kill anyone at Hogwarts, everything is possible. Especially the instigator Daphne Greengrass, Ian has heard about the paranoia of the Greengrass family more than once.
“I hope you know the importance…” Ian murmured and looked at the toad next to him.
If something bad happened to Toad later, he would have no choice but to send him off personally, but he would not choose to do it at Hogwarts.
Ten minutes later.
A drop of the magic potion dropped into the toad’s mouth, and then Ian dropped the toad on the bracelet.
The moment the two came into contact, no drastic changes occurred, and then Toad lay motionless on the table with eyes blank.
It was alive, but Ian noticed the difference. The toad’s behavior at the moment looked familiar to him, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
“Holy shit…Lockhart!” Ian slapped his head, wondering why he looked so familiar. Isn’t this a replica of Lockhart from St. Mungo’s Hospital? His expression was exactly the same.
Then he waved his wand and let the magic nebula surround the toad. Fortunately, it was only memory erasure and cognitive confusion, and there was no sense of fragmentation in Lockhart.
After waiting for a while, and confirming the effect of the curse again, Ian decided to treat the other person in his own way.
First of all, Daphne’s memory is no longer available, and second is the prison of Azkaban. The former is punishment, the latter is deterrence, and it is also about killing chickens to scare monkeys.
Thinking of this, Ian started writing a letter to Fudge and rushed to pick him up on his summer vacation, thus avoiding the interference of Hogwarts and achieving seamless connection.
A few minutes later.
Letters, bracelets, potions, and toads were all put into boxes and bundled. Since arresting people, witnesses and physical evidence are essential, and with these things, Fudge will be able to do things easily.
…
Early next morning.
After breakfast, Ian arrived outside the castle before 9 o’clock. A group of Slytherin boys in grades 2 and 3 were also waiting for a long time.
After taking out the list and checking the names, Ian also took out the indispensable carrier for this journey, a large suitcase that was expanded specifically to carry people.
Open the box and let everyone enter one after another.
After everything was ready, he walked to Hermione and said, “Do you need to buy anything else? We will probably stay there for two months during the summer vacation. If you want to buy something, today is the best chance.” .”
Hearing this, Hermione shook her head and said, “There is nothing special needed. Besides, we are only going back for two months.”
Ian didn’t say anything more, it was just a summer vacation at best. Holding the box in his left hand, he stretched out his right arm. After Hermione grasped it tightly, the follower appeared and activated.
Eco-city in the Scottish Highlands.
After a series of killings, 35 Slytherin students also appeared in the city.
Looking at the huge glass cover in mid-air, everyone had a confused expression on their faces.
Seeing this, Ian knew it was time for him to take the stage: “I know you are all confused, but I hope you will stay quiet for the rest of the time…”
Ian quickly appeased all the little wizards, and then began to send the little wizards home in order of surname.
Because of Dumbledore’s forbidden magic, the most convenient phantom movement became a decoration.
As a last resort, everyone could only obediently board the pre-arranged transportation, an orange modified school bus.
The car started and drove slowly. Looking at the car full of well-behaved children, Ian always felt like he was a teacher at a summer camp.
After a while, the car stopped in front of an obvious residential area.
“Mr. Morrison, you are home, please come down with me.” Ian put down the list in his hand, and then looked at a little boy with freckles behind him.
Under the gaze of everyone, the little guy stepped forward somewhat cautiously, clutching his suitcase tightly with both hands.
Although he looked timid, he still had the courage to ask: “Does my mother live here?”
“Of course, it’s just a move. As for the reason, I will explain it to you separately later. Don’t worry, this is my responsibility.” Ian said pretending to be relaxed.
“Mr. Morrison, you can leave with me now.” After saying that, Ian waved to the little boy.
Before leaving, he even signaled Hermione with his eyes to help keep an eye on her and not let the little ones cause trouble.
Likewise, Hermione nodded understandingly. She now finally believed that the assistant in Ian’s mouth was not an excuse made up to let her take leave early.
After all, if no one keeps an eye on these little wizards, God knows what trouble they could cause.
