The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 330 The created monster
"Cheers to your test scores!"

Under the beech tree by the Black Lake, Albert and his group, who had just finished their final exams, were clinking glasses with iced butterbeer to celebrate that everyone finally got rid of the stuffy classroom and the shadow of the final exam.

After drinking half a glass of butter beer, most of the sweltering heat in June dissipated immediately, and a breeze blew from the lake, bringing a little bit of coolness.

"Tell me, how many years has that giant squid in the black lake lived!" Fred looked at the giant squid lying in the warm shallow water basking in the sun, and casually picked up a topic.

"Hundreds of years?"

"Ordinary animals can't live that long!"

The three looked at Albert in unison, waiting for each other's answer.

"Who knows?"

Albert lay on the recliner created by the Transformation Curse, yawning lazily: "The big squid should have lived for many years. I wonder if it was a pet kept by the Big Four in the Black Lake back then."

"It's possible. I heard that the giant squid will not harm the students of Hogwarts. If they accidentally fall into the water while crossing the lake, it will send the students to the boat." Lee Jordan fiddled with a branch as he spoke. Its tentacles, as a result, the tentacles of the giant squid patted the lake water, splashing Lee Jordan directly.

Seeing this scene, Fred and George couldn't help laughing.

"General animals can't live so long." Fred didn't believe Albert's words.

"Yes, Phoenix is ​​fine." Albert reminded.

All three couldn't help but rolled their eyes.

"Except for Phoenix?"

"The basilisk may also live for a long time." Albert said mysteriously.

"Basilisk, what is that?"

"In a very old book at Hogwarts, it is recorded like this: In our country, there are many terrible beasts and monsters roaming, and the most bizarre and lethal one is the basilisk, also known as the basilisk. The King Snake. This snake, which can become very large and usually live for hundreds of years, is hatched from a rooster's egg by a toad."

"You actually recited the contents of the book." Fred looked at Albert in shock, and couldn't help muttering, "How idle are you!"

"Is there something wrong with what you are concerned about?" Albert was speechless immediately.

"It hatched from a rooster's egg by a... toad?" George wondered.

"Well, the basilisk is a magical creature created by a black wizard. It has amazing lethality. I heard that the stare of the basilisk can kill people. Anyone who is stared at by it will die immediately." Albert deliberately widened Eyes, "Like this."

"Can the basilisk stare at people?" The three obviously didn't believe it.

"Probably! I'm not sure." Albert continued, "That's the information I found last time I checked the acromantia. The basilisk likes to eat spiders, and it is the natural enemy of the acromantia."

"Do you think the giant squid is also a magical creature made by a wizard?" Lee Jordan understood Albert's meaning.

"Well, I think the giant squid may be a magical creature created by the Big Four. They placed it in the Black Lake as a solid line of defense for Hogwarts." Albert thought for a while and said, "If someone wants to cross If the lake attacks Hogwarts, they will be attacked and overturned by giant squid on the surface of the lake, and they will all sink to the bottom of the lake to feed the fish."

"Why do you think so?" George asked curiously.

"Acromantula were created to guard a wizard's abode or treasure, as are other monsters usually created by magic."

"Okay, stop fooling us." Fred couldn't help but rolled his eyes, as if he didn't think we would be fooled.

"Didn't you realize that the terrain around Hogwarts castle is easy to defend and difficult to attack?" Albert also knew that the three of them didn't pay much attention to these things, so he just told them this matter as a joke.

"There are also a large number of knight statues and knight armor in the castle. When necessary, wizards can use magic to drive them and turn these things into the most loyal soldiers to resist invasion from the outside world."

"It seems to make sense." The three said casually.

"That era was called the Dark Middle Ages. Do you think it's dangerous?" Albert didn't care, and continued: "There may be fewer wizards in that era than we do now, and there is no order. If there is an army of Muggles attacking In terms of this castle, the number of wizards will not be able to stop it after all."

"Muggles will attack Hogwarts?" The three were stunned for a moment.

"Of course, it may also be other dark creatures, or evil wizards. 1000 years ago, this world was not very safe." Albert put away his dull tone and said with a smile: "However, I did not mention it in the historical documents. Find records of the war at Hogwarts."

"So, what you said just now, are you fooling us again?"

All three couldn't help but rolled their eyes, knowing that they were cheated by Albert again.

"It's just speculation!"

"Stop talking about those useless speculations, when are we going to find Gryffindor's secret treasure?" Fred looked around and asked in a low voice after making sure there was no one around.

"Tomorrow morning!" Albert added, "ride over there on a broomstick."

"Riding a broomstick?" The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay. At first they thought they were going to go deep into the Forbidden Forest, but they didn't expect Albert to fly across the sky on a broomstick.

"Otherwise? Are you still planning to break into the Forbidden Forest and fight against the giant arachnid?" Albert was speechless immediately. It was too stupid to try to pass through the Forbidden Forest from the ground. He never thought of taking risks from the beginning.

"Then what is the purpose of the magic confrontation we have practiced for so long?" Li Qiaodan couldn't help complaining, "There is also a spell against the acromantia."

"Of course it is to ensure the safety of my own life." Albert said his plan: "Let's ride a broom to the vicinity guided by the secret treasure, and then slowly search while lowering the altitude."

"We were foolishly preparing to go through the forest." George felt that he and Fred were so stupid at that time, why didn't they think of flying over their heads!
"At that time, we didn't have broomsticks!" Fred couldn't help protesting.

"What should I do!" Lee Jordan asked hastily.Of the four, he was the only one without a broomstick.

"Let George drive you at that time." Fred smiled and threw the trouble to his brother. Albert will definitely not be able to divide his time and energy by then.

"Stupid, doesn't Albert still have a silver arrow?" George admired his quick wit. "When the time comes, Lee Jordan will of course follow us on a broomstick."

"It won't fall suddenly," Lee Jordan said worriedly, "After all, it's an old antique!"

"Probably not, even if you fall, I will catch you as soon as possible!" Albert comforted casually.

"You can't comfort people, just shut your stinky mouth!" Lee Jordan complained, "I don't want to experience the feeling of falling off the broom."
