The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 281: Genuine

In the principal's office, the silence continued.

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

This makes the air in the office also seem to be stained with a trace of gunpowder.

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

After a long time, Dumbledore finally gave up this intimidation in disguise, and said very solemnly:

"Alastor Moody can't leave Hogwarts."

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

Upon seeing this, Dumbledore took a deep breath and explained:

"He is the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor whom I hired so easily, and his professional level is absolutely strong. If he is driven out of Hogwarts, I will not be able to find a replacement for him within a few months."

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

The meaning was clear, but Snape turned his head before pretending not to see it.

In the first two years, he had been in the job, helping Lupin and the others who had problems halfway through the defense against the Dark Arts as a substitute.

So he is very clear.

Although he dreamed of being a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, it would be very boring if he had to concurrently be a professor of potions.

After all, it is too torture to prepare two courses at the same time.

Link turned his head a little disappointed, but saw Dumbledore smile happily and said:

"That's it, Link, I'm sorry for what Alastor did. His delusion is indeed a bit serious, and what he did has created a psychological shadow on you."

Speaking, Dumbledore took out a glass jar filled with transparent liquid from the drawer and pushed it in front of Link, "But I believe that even if it is a mental injury, Phoenix tears can heal it. Here, there is enough. Fully 5 ounces, is that enough for you to see?"

Phoenix's tears were indeed strong enough.

After all, this can be said to be one of the most effective healing drugs in the world, and it is also the material for many lost potions in the Slytherin Pharmacopoeia.

Most importantly, it is extremely rare!

Because the only wizard in the world who still tamed the phoenix was Dumbledore.

This means that, except for those wizard hunters who try their luck in the wild and occasionally get a drop or two, Dumbledore is the only place to produce.

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

But Link didn't have the slightest joy on his face.

This is a full 5 ounces!

Dumbledore, wouldn't he be forcing Phoenix Windks to shed tears to him every day, right?

Poor little guy.

Link touched Phoenix Fox's head compassionately.

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

Dumbledore would never let Moody leave Hogwarts.

These 5 ounces of Phoenix Tears are also Dumbledore telling Link that there is no point in trying to get him financially, because as long as he sells this bottle of Phoenix Tears, he can reap an astronomical amount of gold.

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

Dumbledore must have other purposes.

But this is not important anymore.

"call!"

Link exhaled and said to Dumbledore:

"So many phoenix tears are indeed enough. But I have some doubts that Professor Moody was pretended to be a compound decoction by someone else. Well, it happens that Professor Snape will prepare the compound decoction. It is better to let Professor Moody. Give it a try."

"Link, do you have to do this?"

Dumbledore's tone was a little helpless.

He didn't think that Moody was pretending to be someone else, which was a bit too much.

In his opinion, this was Link who wanted to find an excuse to retaliate against Moody.

If possible, Dumbledore really wanted to refuse directly.

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

If he disagrees today, Link will definitely use other means to retaliate against Moody's afterwards.

In that case, things might get out of control.

Thinking of this, Dumbledore nodded hard and looked at Snape and said:

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

"Don't have to be so troublesome! Ever since a few thieves stole the ingredients of the compound decoction from my medicinal material library two years ago, I have always prepared the decoction of the compound decoction with me."

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

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

Following Dumbledore's words, the phoenix on Link's shoulder screamed 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 he did not succeed in driving Moody out of Hogwarts this time, it would be rewarding to be able to distinguish Moody's from the real.

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

"Dumbledore, what can I do?"

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

"Oh, that's the case, Alastor. Mr. Foley thinks that you might be someone else who drank the compound decoction and pretended to be, so Professor Snape specially asked Professor Snape to help you prepare a bottle of compound decoction decoction and wanted you to drink Go down and prove yourself."

"Nonsense!"

Moody roared, "This is Chiguoguo's revenge! Dumbledore! You should understand!"

Dumbledore did not speak, but looked at Moody quietly.

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

"Do I have to drink it?"

This time, Dumbledore finally spoke, but Moody's answer was a sigh.

Moody also understood. He glared at Link and Snape viciously.

"Ghost tricks, despicable villain!"

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

This kind of inspection lasted for more than half an hour, and Link was a little stunned.

Because Moody's used various checking spells during this period, even the Skapin Manifestation Curse, which can only be learned by a high-level potion education, used the potion analysis spell.

But even with this level of carefulness, Moody still failed to detect any problems in the potion.

"Damn! Despicable guy, Merlin's beard..."

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

After drinking, Moody's expression became hideous.

He had been poisoned countless times when he took office as the Auror, so despite the complicated detection methods that failed to detect the poison in the potion, he knew that something was wrong just as soon as he took it.

"you guys……"

Moody yelled and drew his wand from his arms, but before he could finish speaking, his skin instantly turned green, and countless sturdy little bumps came out of his skin. The sudden pain was even more compelling. He collapsed 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 deal with a potion master like Snape on the other side.

Dumbledore lowered his head and sighed deeply:

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

"Of course," Snape said with a gleeful glance at Moody, who was still twitching on the ground. "This symptom will last for a full week and then subside naturally."

After that, Snape took Link and left the office without looking back.

After the stone monster closed the entrance to the principal's office again, Snape couldn't wait to say to Link:

"Where are Phoenix's tears?"

"Can't give you all."

"I want 4 ounces!"

"Up to 2 ounces!"

"Good! Deal!"

The two of them did not shy away from the dirt in front of the stone monster, which made Snape even happier.

Knowing that with the scarce material like Phoenix Tears, he can start trying to match the legendary potions in the Slytherin Grimoire.

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

Snape never expected Dumbledore to drive Moody out of Hogwarts.

"By the way, is the potion you gave Moody really a reliever of the compound decoction?"

Just as Snape was excited in his heart, Link's voice suddenly rang.

This made Snape's smile fade away, frowning and asking:

"Do you really think that Moody is not genuine?"

"You know, my hunch is always accurate. It's because of this ability that I can live until now." Link said meaningfully, "and this time Moody's gave me a particularly bad feeling."

Hearing that Snape's eyes drifted, he was silent for a while before saying:

"It looks like you are really being overshadowed by the old guy's Imperius Curse. Maybe you should drink some Phoenix tears like Dumbledore said, and see if you can heal the trauma."

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

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

Link knows this very well.

But he didn't care. After all, he really wanted to talk about intelligence. The things he possessed as a traverser was far beyond what a native like Snape could imagine.

Perhaps it was uncomfortable being stared at by Link.

Snape finally said after looking at Link for a while:

"What I drank to Moody was indeed not the decoction of the compound decoction, but a special form-breaking medicine based on the improvement of Gringotts's manifest waterfall. People who drink this thing can not only continue to maintain the compound decoction, Even the transformation and illusion skills including Animagus can’t be maintained. So just put your heart back in your stomach, this Moody is genuine!"

After that, Snape walked away quickly without looking back.

He has to return to the office quickly to try to match the new medicine, and he has no time to spend time with Link here.

But Link stood there, frowning in thought.

Moody's is genuine.

This news is not so good for Link to make sense.

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

If this Moody is really pretending to be Barty Jr., he can use this to do a lot of things, such as getting some intelligence.

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

Thinking about this, Link shook his head helplessly.

At this time, seeing Snape walking away, John, who had been hiding in the dark from the very beginning, also appeared, and began to ask Link about the results of this battle.

From his expression, Link could tell that this guy didn't actually think Link and Snape could get any benefit from Moody.

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

Link didn't conceal it, and simply informed John of Moody's miserable appearance.

Looking at John's widening eyes, Link was very helpful, and with a smile he returned to the Hufflepuff Lounge with John.

After being disturbed by John so much, he also wanted to understand.

The things I worry about are actually very redundant. As long as Voldemort does not appear in his heyday, then with Dumbledore supporting the scene, these so-called events are all low-intensity.

To deal with this kind of thing, soldiers came to cover the water and earth.

...

In the next few weeks, Link seemed to have completely forgotten about this incident. Apart from studying in class every day, he was tired of being with Emily.

But even so, the two of them will not spend much time together.

Because every class professor is frantically increasing Link's homework.

"This year you will face the L. Exam! This means that you have no time to spend your energy on meaningless things like wizard chess and love-making! All you need to do now is to do your best. Read two more pages and make two more papers! Right now! Go right away!"

The above passage is what Professor Sprout said to Link and the others in the first class of this semester.

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

Because this is more like 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 very few homework she has given before.

Moreover, Professor Sprout usually doesn’t speak hard to his students. Even if he makes a mistake, he focuses on comfort and education~lightnovelpub.net~ and all this has changed since the beginning of this year. Up.

Throughout the fifth grade, the students felt a drastic change in Professor Sprout's attitude.

She became anxious and irritable. Not only did she leave a lot of homework in each class, she even pulled the ear of a naughty man for the first time.

This was something that everyone could not imagine in the past.

Of course, many students began to have opinions on Sprout, thinking that she was deliberately torturing them, or that the menopause had arrived.

But when they took classes with other professors, they immediately didn't think so.

Because other professors have changed even more excessively than Professor Sprout!
