The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 281 The real thing

In the principal's office, the silence continued.

Dumbledore stared at the smile at the corner of Link's mouth, and the expression on his face was a little cold.

This made the air in the office seem to be contaminated with a hint of gunpowder.

It's a pity that Link, who has already grasped Dumbledore's pain points, will not be afraid of him.

After a long time, Dumbledore finally gave up this disguised intimidation and said very seriously:

"Alastor Moody cannot leave Hogwarts."

The smile on Link's face disappeared, and his hand was released from Phoenix's small head, which made Phoenix Fox peck him twice in dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Dumbledore took a deep breath and explained:

"He's the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor I hired with great difficulty. His professional level is definitely tough enough. If he is kicked out of Hogwarts, I won't be able to find a replacement for him for a few months."

Link still didn't speak, but glanced at Snape.

The meaning here was clear, but Snape turned his head away as if he didn't see it.

In the first two years, he had already been fooled, helping Lupin and the others who were halfway through problems with Defence Against the Dark Arts professors.

So he is very clear.

Although he had always dreamed of being a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, it would be very boring if he was also a professor of Potions.

After all, preparing two courses at the same time is too torturous.

Link turned his head in disappointment, but saw Dumbledore smiling happily and said:

"That's it, Link, I'm sorry for what Alastor did. His paranoia is indeed a little serious, and what he did has also caused a psychological shadow on you."

Saying that, Dumbledore took out a glass jar full of transparent liquid from the drawer and pushed it in front of Link, "But I believe that even if it is mental damage, Phoenix tears can heal it. Here, there is enough 5 ounces, do you see enough?"

Phoenix's tears are indeed powerful enough.

After all, this is arguably one of the most effective therapeutic drugs in the world.

It is also the material for many lost potions in the Slytherin Pharmacopoeia.

Best of all, it's extremely rare!

Because at present the only wizard in the world who has domesticated the Phoenix is ​​only Dumbledore.

This means that Dumbledore is the only source of output, except for those bitter wizard hunters who occasionally get a drop or two in the wild.

Snape, who was standing beside Link, was already a little ready to move.

However, there was no joy on Link's face.

That's a full 5 ounces!

Dumbledore, shouldn't he force Phoenix Fengx to shed tears every day?

Poor little guy.

Link patted Phoenix Fox's head pitifully.

More importantly, from Dumbledore's words, Link could hear the other party's determination.

Dumbledore would never let Moody leave Hogwarts.

These 5 ounces of Phoenix Tears are also Dumbledore telling Link that it doesn't make any sense for him to spend money on him, because as long as he sells this bottle of Phoenix Tears, he can reap an astronomical sum of Galleons.

Of course, if the opponent couldn't find a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Link would not listen to a word.

Dumbledore must have other purposes.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

"call!"

Link exhaled a turbid breath and said to Dumbledore:

"So many phoenix tears are indeed enough. However, I have some doubts that Professor Moody is pretending to be someone else using the compound decoction. Well, it happens that Professor Snape will prepare the antidote for the compound decoction. It is better to let Professor Moody's Give it a try."

"Link, do you have to do this?"

Dumbledore's tone was a little helpless.

He didn't think Moody would be someone else's masquerade, which was a bit too much.

In his opinion, this is Link trying to find an excuse to take revenge on Moody's.

Dumbledore really wanted to say no if he could.

But he also knew very well that Link was a very careful person.

If he does not agree today, Link will definitely use other means to retaliate against Moody afterwards.

That way things could get out of hand.

Thinking like this, Dumbledore nodded with difficulty, looked at Snape and said:

"Severus, then you go to configure the potion first, and wait for you to prepare it..."

"Don't be so troublesome! Since several thieves stole a few of the ingredients for the compound decoction from my medicinal material storehouse in the past two years, I've been preparing the release medicine for the compound decoction with me."

Snape took out a bottle of green potion from his bosom and interrupted Dumbledore with a smile.

"Well, Fox, tell Alastor to come over."

Following Dumbledore's words, the phoenix on Link's shoulder let out a cry, and then disappeared into a flame.

This move eased the atmosphere in the office a lot, and Link also had a smile on his face.

Although this time he failed to drive Moody out of Hogwarts, it was rewarding to be able to tell the truth from Moody.

A few minutes later, Phoenix Fox and Moody appeared in front of everyone in a flash of fire.

"Dumbledore, do you have anything to do with me?"

Moody didn't even look at Link and Snape, and asked Dumbledore directly.

"Oh, that's it, Alastor. Mr. Foley thought that you might be pretending to be someone who drank the compound decoction, so he specially asked Professor Snape to give you a bottle of compound decoction reliever, and wanted you to drink it. Go down and prove yourself."

"Nonsense!"

Moody roared at once, "This is Chi Guoguo's revenge! Dumbledore! You should understand!"

Dumbledore didn't speak, just looked at Moody quietly.

This made Moody's expression gloomy, and said lightly:

"Do you have to drink?"

This time, Dumbledore finally spoke, only to answer Moody with a sigh.

Moody also understood, he gave Link and Snape a vicious look and said:

"Ghost tricks, despicable villain!"

After saying that, he raised the green bottle of potion on the table and began to check it with his wand and potion.

This kind of inspection lasted for nearly half an hour, and Link was a little stunned to see it.

Because Moody used all kinds of checking spells during this period, even the Scarpin Revealing Spell, which can only be learned with a high-level potions education.

But even with this level of care, Moody still couldn't find anything wrong with the potion.

"Damn it! Despicable fellow, Merlin's beard..."

Moody muttered and didn't want to drink it, but at Dumbledore's insistence, Moody finally drank the potion.

After drinking, Moody's expression became grim.

He had been poisoned countless times when he took office as an Auror, so this time, although the complicated testing methods failed to detect the poison in this bottle of potion, he knew that something was wrong as soon as he entered it.

"you……"

Moody scolded and drew his wand from his arms, but before he could finish speaking, his skin instantly turned green, and at the same time, countless thick little bumps drilled out of his skin, and the sudden pain was even more pressing. He fell directly to the ground.

Link and Snape looked at each other with a wicked smile.

No matter how careful Moody was, there was still no good way to face a potion master like Snape.

Dumbledore lowered his head and sighed deeply:

"Since the matter has been resolved, you should also go."

"Of course," Snape said, gleefully glancing at Moody, who was still twitching on the ground. "It's going to last a whole week and then it will subside naturally."

After saying that, Snape took Link out of the office without looking back.

And after the stone monster closed the entrance of the principal's office again, Snape said to Link impatiently:

"What about Phoenix Tears?"

"I can't give it all to you."

"I want 4 ounces!"

"Up to 2 ounces!"

"Good! Deal!"

The two of them didn't shy away from dividing the dirt in front of the stone monster, which made Snape even happier.

Knowing that with such a rare material as Phoenix Tears, he can start trying to match the legendary potions on the Slytherin Tome.

What's more, that disgusting Moody has suffered a big loss this time, and that's enough!

Snape never expected Dumbledore to kick Moody out of Hogwarts.

"By the way, is the potion you gave Moody really the antidote for the compound decoction?"

Just when Snape was excited, Link's voice suddenly rang out.

This caused the smile on Snape's face to gradually disappear, and he frowned and asked:

"Do you really think that Moody's isn't the real thing?"

"You know, my hunch is always accurate. It's just that I can survive until now." Link said meaningfully, "And this time Moody gave me a particularly bad feeling."

Hearing this, Snape's eyes moved, and he was silent for a while before saying:

"Looks like you're really getting some psychological shadows from that old guy's Imperius Curse. Maybe you should drink some phoenix tears, as Dumbledore said, to see if you can heal your trauma."

Link didn't answer, just continued to look into Snape's eyes.

Snape must have known something, but he didn't want to say it, so he could only fool himself by saying something stupid.

Link knew this very well.

But it doesn't matter to him, after all, when it comes to intelligence, what he, a traverser, masters is far beyond what an aborigines like Snape can imagine.

Perhaps it was uncomfortable being stared at by Link.

Snape finally said after looking at Link for a while:

"What I gave Moody was indeed not the release agent of the compound decoction, but a special shape-breaking potion based on the improvement of Gringotts Visible Falls. The person who drank this thing not only could not continue to maintain the compound decoction, Even Transfiguration and Disillusionment, including Animagus, can't be maintained. So put your heart back in your belly, this Moody is the real deal!"

After saying that, Snape walked away without looking back.

He has to return to the office quickly to try to mix the new medicine, and he has no time to hang out with Link here.

Link, on the other hand, stood there, frowning in thought.

Moody's is the real deal.

This news makes sense not so good for Link.

Because he knew that the two Death Eaters, Barty Crouch Jr. and Pettigrew Peter, were still hanging around outside, not to mention that there was an even bigger force behind them.

If this Moody is really what Barty is pretending to be, he can use this to do a lot of things, such as getting some information or something.

But now, this group of people has completely turned underground, and it is difficult to catch them again.

Thinking of this, Link shook his head helplessly.

At this time, seeing Snape walking away, John, who had been hiding in the dark since the beginning, also appeared and began to ask Link about the result of this victory.

Link could tell from his expression that this guy didn't really think Link and Snape could get anything out of Moody.

Therefore, his inquiry was more of comfort and concern among close friends.

Link did not hide it, and simply told John all about Moody's tragic appearance.

Looking at John's widening eyes, Link took advantage of it and returned to the Hufflepuff lounge with John with a smile.

After being disturbed by John like this, he also wanted to understand.

The things I worry about are actually superfluous. As long as Voldemort does not appear in his prime, then in the case of Dumbledore's support, these so-called events are all low-intensity.

To deal with this kind of thing, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the soil.

...

For the next few weeks, Link seemed to have completely forgotten about it, spending every day with Emily except in class and study.

But even so, the two of them won't spend much time together.

Because every professor in the class is frantically adding Link to their homework.

"This year you will have your .L. exams! That means you don't have time to waste your energy on pointless things like wizard chess and romance! All you need to do now is to do your best Read two more pages, go and do two more papers! Right now! Go right away!"

The above is what Professor Sprout told Link and the others in the first class of the semester.

After she said this, all the students in the classroom were stunned.

Because it's more of what Professor McGonagall would say than Professor Sprout.

In the eyes of all Hogwarts students, Professor Sprout has always been a good professor who is tolerant and friendly.

This can be seen from the homework she has assigned before.

Even, Professor Sprout usually does not speak harshly to his students. Even if he makes a mistake, he mainly focuses on comfort and education.

And that all changed when school started this year.

The drastic shift in Professor Sprout's attitude was felt throughout the fifth grade.

She became irritable and irritable. Not only did she leave a lot of homework in each class, but she even pulled the ear of a mischievous person for the first time ever.

This was completely unimaginable in the past.

Naturally, many students began to take issue with Sprout, believing that she was torturing them on purpose, or that it was menopause.

But when they took classes with other professors, they immediately thought otherwise.

Because other professors have turned more than Professor Sprout!
