Ancient Wizards Return to Hogwarts

Chapter 292 Helga: What Kind of Cuties Are There in the Forbidden Forest?

Helga's applause brought the students present out of their thoughts.

"Mr. Lint is right. If you want to resist the dark magic, you have to know something about it - otherwise it will be like this." Hufflepuff crouched down and took out a cage of mice from under the podium.

Seeing the cage of lively mice, Les raised his eyebrows: Look, the fate of mice is different. Some "mice" can lie comfortably in the cage and sleep every day under the effect of potions, while some mice will become teaching materials for old witches.

Seeing the cage of big rats, Daphne shrank back calmly.

Hufflepuff did not show any disgust for the mice in the cage - this is just the beginning? She used to make roasted voles, and the taste was quite good.

She took out her wand and tapped the cage lightly, and the cage door popped open.

Daphne shrank back a little more, trying to keep as much distance from the podium as possible.

The mice in the cage seemed to sense the air of freedom and became active all of a sudden, but how could Hufflepuff let them do what they wanted? After she used the levitation spell to take out a fat and big mouse from the cage, she closed the cage door to prevent the experimental materials that she had collected with great difficulty from escaping.

"Watch it..." Hufflepuff poked the mouse's body with the tip of her wand, and then threw it to the ground.

After finding that it had regained its freedom, the mouse ran directly to the door of the classroom without any hesitation.

The students in the classroom suddenly exploded. The girls quickly retracted their feet on the stools, and some even jumped onto the table. Some boys quietly lifted their feet from the ground, and some boys drew their wands, ready to "bring the escaped mice to justice."

"Let it run." Hufflepuff stopped the students who were about to cast spells.

The mouse ran a few steps, and its body became strange. Its round body swelled up like a balloon.

The faces of the students around changed drastically, and they vaguely foresaw a bad scene. Many people stood up slightly, ready to run to the side if they saw the situation was not good.

At this time, Hufflepuff took action. She used a petrification spell to freeze the mouse that was trying to escape to the door. Then, she used a flying spell to call the mouse back to the podium.

"You are right. This mouse will explode into pieces with a bang if it runs a few more steps. Now I ask you, do any of you know how to deal with this kind of spell?"

The little wizards in the audience were silent. They didn't even know what spell Professor White used, so how could they break it?

"This is today's homework. Find out what spell I used through any means and find a way to break the spell." Hufflepuff still had a warm smile on her face: "Next class, I will randomly select a student to try to break my spell."

Rice, who was sitting in the audience, smiled. He naturally knew what spell Helga used.

This spell is quite cruel. Once the person under the spell moves, his body will swell involuntarily. The more terrifying flow of magic power is also considered "movement", so wizards who do not understand this spell will only accelerate their own death if they blindly use the spell removal in a panic.

As for why Rice is so familiar with this spell... Because this spell was invented by him, the one used by Hufflepuff is actually a weakened version.

The full version of this spell needs to be used with potions. Sprinkle the potion on the cursed person. When the cursed person explodes and dies, he will turn into a cloud of poisonous mist. People who inhale the poisonous mist will also be cursed, triggering an extremely terrifying chain reaction. The curse will not stop transmitting until the effect of the potion is exhausted.

This spell is particularly useful for clearing the belief in the Nordic false gods.

Rice originally wanted to further transform the potion so that the potion can reproduce in the host body in order to greatly extend the effective time of the potion, but was stopped by the other three old friends. In addition, the raw materials of the potion are difficult to find, so Rice gave up the plan to improve this spell.

The young wizards in the audience wrote down the homework assigned by Professor White on parchment. Rice looked at them with sympathy. It was not easy to find this spell from various records.

Next, Hufflepuff took out the mice in the cage one by one and showed the students various evil spells in turn - more than half of which were invented by Rice and Rowena. When the bell rang, the mice in the cage had just been used up, but there was not even a dead mouse in the classroom.

"Okay, that's it for today's Defense Against the Dark Arts. This class showed you a little bit of dark magic. Next class, I will show you how to defend against dark magic. Class dismissed! Don't forget the homework I left. I will check it next class!"

With Helga's order, the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class of this school year ended. The young wizards filed out and had a heated discussion with their friends about the idea proposed by Rice in class today and supported by Professor White.

How should we view dark magic?

This topic caused ripples like a stone thrown into a pond, and it is destined to trigger more in-depth discussions.

However, the instigator of the topic did not take the impending storm seriously at all. After class, Hufflepuff did not rush to eat lunch, but walked out of Hogwarts Castle carrying a basket.

She planned to go around the Forbidden Forest to see what the difference was between the Forbidden Forest a thousand years later and a thousand years ago, and whether there were any more cute little creatures.

Helga walked into the Forbidden Forest with a brisk pace. On the way, she met Professor Lupin and his assistant Hagrid. She greeted them enthusiastically and then politely declined their proposal to go with her.

For Helga, although the Forbidden Forest had changed a lot after a thousand years, entering here was still as easy as taking a walk in the back garden.

She soon entered the depths of the Forbidden Forest and met a group of unicorns in a clearing in the woods.

It was a unicorn family consisting of a male unicorn, three female unicorns and two cubs.

After seeing these unicorns, Hufflepuff's eyes lit up: Very good, good luck today! I didn't expect that there were still unicorns in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts. This is really not easy.

Seeing a stranger approaching, the male unicorn snorted loudly and warned the approaching Hufflepuff, but Hufflepuff didn't care.

She completely ignored the unicorn's warning and walked towards a female unicorn with a bulging belly.

Seeing that the warning was ineffective, the male decided to teach the intruder a lesson and cut a hole in her body. But just as it was about to take a step, it found that its limbs were already stuck in the mud.

"The old serpent's magic is quite useful." Hufflepuff walked to the side of the female beast, reached out and touched its belly, and then showed a satisfied smile.

"Please let me borrow some milk, don't worry, I will compensate you." She squatted down.
