Chapter 169: Changing the Weather
It is October now.
The new Quidditch players for this school year have been selected and the training has begun.
As usual, conflicts between the various colleges occur from time to time in order to compete for the right to use the Quidditch field.
Lupin has also completely established his foothold in Hogwarts. After more than a month of recuperation, he is no longer as thin as before. He is much more energetic. He got his first month’s salary and changed into a wizard robe. He is completely different from before.
His courses are also quite popular among the little wizards.
Take Ethan’s third grade as an example. Later, he learned the red hat, which is an ugly little thing similar to a goblin. It lurks in places where blood has been shed, such as the dungeons of the castle and the abandoned battlefield tunnels. They like to attack lost people with big sticks in these places.
After the red hat, they learned the kaba, a reptile that lives in water. It looks like a monkey with scales and webbed hands. It will attack people wading in their ponds at any time.
It can be said that every week’s Defense Against the Dark Arts class is worth looking forward to. One theoretical class and one practical class have already caught the attention of the young wizards in Hogwarts.
After Ethan’s teaching, Hagrid is doing well now. He pulled the bullied Chimera over as a model to introduce its abilities, habits, living environment, etc. to everyone.
Later, he also brought a fire crab, which is another magical animal. Although the name is a crab, it actually looks more like a turtle. The shell on its back is inlaid with jewels, which is quite gorgeous and also has a considerable value.
This is also an alien species. Hagrid also spent a lot of effort to get it. He originally planned to use it for breeding, but now he uses it to teach students first.
These two magical animals also attracted the attention of the young wizards in Hogwarts, which made Hagrid feel much better.
Only Snape’s mood is still quite bad. Every time he teaches his class, it seems as if he is going to kill someone.
Until now, the Gryffindor house score has never exceeded 30 points. After all, every third year potion class, Neville and Ron are the focus of attention, no matter how many points are deducted.
The little wizards in Gryffindor know that they have no chance of winning the house cup this school year.
There is also the Divination class, which most people don’t like. Originally, they thought Professor Trelawney was very mysterious, but after Professor McGonagall’s explanation, everyone knew that she was an old liar.
Only two girls in Gryffindor trust her very much, one is Lavender Brown, and the other is Parvati Patil.
These two are Hermione’s roommates. Hermione has complained countless times, but no matter how she persuades, she won’t listen.
And every lunch time, the two of them like to go to Trelawney’s classroom on the top floor of the tower, and when they come back, they like to wear an unfathomable smile on their faces.
Many little wizards in Gryffindor think that these two are confused by Trelawney.
In addition, Hermione also had a big quarrel with Ron.
The reason was that Hermione took Crookshanks to the public recreation area.Ron was reading in the common room at that time. The result was obvious. Crookshanks went after Scabbers again.
This made Ron very angry. Although Scabbers did gain some weight after taking Ethan’s tonic, Scabbers’ age could not be changed. At such an old age, how could he withstand the torment of a cat?
This made Ron angry and kicked Crookshanks hard, but Crookshanks had cat-kin blood after all, so it was not so easy to hit. In the end, Ron was the one who got hurt.
Therefore, the two of them quarreled. Hermione no longer brought the cat to the common room. Whenever she went out, she would put the cat in a cage. She would only let Crookshanks out when she was in the dormitory or at Ethan’s place.
At the same time, this month, the school also posted a notice that the third graders could go to Hogsmeade Village at the end of this month, just before Halloween.
Of course, the prerequisite is to obtain the signature of the parents, otherwise they can only stay in Hogwarts.
This made quite a few young wizards very happy. These were basically those who had never been to Hogsmeade, but had heard of the name of Hogsmeade, a pure wizard village.
For someone like Ethan, Hogsmeade had already been visited many times, and there was nothing special about it.
Apart from these, the only thing that could make Ethan pay special attention was the weather on the full moon day in October.
But after class in the morning, Ethan came to the field outside Hogwarts and found that the weather was not very good.
Today’s clouds are quite thick, a veritable cloudy day.
And when the Mandrake leaves are soaked in saliva, they must be exposed to pure moonlight, otherwise they have to start over.
This month, Ethan was really fed up with the days of shouting for a leaf. He was often awakened when he slept at night, fearing that he would push the leaf out or swallow it.
So Ethan would never choose to start this step over again.
Then we have to find a way to solve these dark clouds so that the moon tonight can shine on the earth clearly.
Ethan also has an unreliable method for this, but he doesn’t know if it will work.
In Fantastic Beasts, Newt Scamander can use thunderbirds to summon dark clouds, and with the venom of the winged demon, he can erase the memories of half of the New Yorkers in the city.
Newt’s thunderbirds can do it, but Ethan has five of them, so there is no reason why he can’t do it.
As long as these dark clouds stop raining, won’t the moon come out tonight?
Came to the habitat of thunderbirds in the Forbidden Forest.
“Cry~!”
Ethan heard the cry of thunderbirds from a distance.
When he got closer, Ethan found that the three little thunderbirds were being scolded for something they didn’t know. The big thunderbird flapped its wings once every two calls, and the rain and dew were evenly distributed, and none of them fell.
When the mother thunderbird saw Ethan coming, she immediately flew to Ethan and landed in front of him, making a happy cry.
After Ethan put a handful of energy cubes in its beak, he turned over and rode on it. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
After meeting up with the other four thunderbirds, Ethan made his request.
Of course, they would not refuse this, and immediately carried Ethan on their backs.Sen Shengkong came to the bottom of the clouds.
Here they kept flying, circling and chirping, the clouds became darker and darker, and lightning began to flash in the clouds.
At this moment, Ethan also used the weather spell to directly control a large area of dark clouds.
The drifting rain fell with thunder, and the thunderbird took Ethan to shuttle between lightning and dark clouds.
Ethan found that he was becoming more and more proficient in controlling the weather spell, and his level was really soaring at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Moreover, on the back of the thunderbird, these lightnings also deliberately avoided him, of course Ethan was not afraid of these lightnings.
With the talent of lightning affinity, Ethan could use magic to control these lightnings the moment they came into contact, not to say to rub them in his hands, but to use the magic wand to command them in which direction to bombard.
After the heavy rain fell in the entire surrounding area, Ethan let the thunderbird send Ethan back.
Ethan doesn’t need to worry about what happens next. According to the current trend, it will only take one or two hours at most for the dark clouds to disappear.
I just don’t know if the condition of waiting for a thunderstorm with thunder and lightning after burying the leaves and saliva of the mandrake can be assisted by the thunderbird. If it can, it will be simple.
After two days, when the clouds are thicker, we can start.
However, Ethan gave up just thinking about it. It is best to leave this step to nature.
I don’t know if there will be any mistakes in this environment that uses magic to change.
Today’s condition is moonlight, so it’s nothing to change the weather now (Zhao Zhao Zhao), after all, the thunderbird affects the clouds, not the moon.
When it was evening, Ethan went to the nest of the eight-eyed giant spider in the forbidden forest alone.
Due to a heavy rain in the morning, the weather cleared up in the afternoon.
Now the moonlight shines on the earth, and tomorrow will be another good day.
Taking out a crystal medicine bottle, Ethan spit saliva into it until it reached two-thirds of the bottle.
Then he took out the leaves of the mandrake and soaked them in a crystal medicine bottle filled with saliva.
And pointed it at the moon, so that it could fully receive the pure moonlight.
It was indeed a leaf of the mandrake. After a month, the appearance did not change much. If it were an ordinary leaf, it would have rotted away long ago.
After ten minutes, Ethan added a strand of his own hair and a teaspoon of dew. This dew was collected by Ethan in the depths of the forbidden forest. It had never seen the sun, let alone been touched by humans.
Finally, he added a pupa of the ghost-faced hawk moth, and buried the mixed liquid under a rock not far from the nest of the eight-eyed giant spider.
And he told the eight-eyed giant spider not to turn over the land, nor to pass by or eat there. .
