Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 281 Defense Against the Dark Arts

   A few days later, the topics related to the monsters in the Forbidden Forest still haven't shown signs of subsiding. No way, even the professors are wondering what the monsters in the Forbidden Forest are.

  Some students with big brains connected this matter with Hogwarts school motto, saying that there is a fire dragon in the Forbidden Forest, which was secretly raised by Hogwarts school.

  Actually, it’s because they are too free that they spread rumors about nothing. If they really let the students face those monsters, they won’t be scared to death.

  In the afternoon, in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, someone finally couldn't help being curious and mentioned this matter to Professor Smith. It is said that Professor Smith was helping drive away monsters in the Forbidden Forest.

"Unfortunately, I didn't see the appearance of that monster." Facing everyone's expectant gazes, Professor Smith replied in a very helpless tone: "At that time, Dumbledore and I searched for the monster separately, but it turned out that there was no trace of the monster. I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck, but I was bumped into by the principal, and it is said that he is a dangerous big guy."

   Seeing the regretful expressions on everyone's faces, Professor Smith smiled and comforted him: "Although I didn't encounter the monster you mentioned, I encountered another dangerous monster in the Forbidden Forest."

   "What monster?" Lee Jordan asked first.

   "Acromantula." Professor Smith said with a smile, "You should have seen it once. In Boggart's class, the thing that the two Mr. Weasleys were afraid of was the acromantula."

   There was a whisper in the seat.

"You probably don't know that there were rumors that there were a large number of acromantids in the Forbidden Forest. I think this should be true. This is one of the reasons why Dumbledore forbade everyone from entering the Forbidden Forest." Professor Smith said Forget to warn everyone.

  Because of the Lu Wei incident, the number of students breaking into the Forbidden Forest together suddenly increased recently. Hagrid was very troubled by this matter, and put up several signs at the entrance of the Forbidden Forest, indicating that once caught, they will pass through the confinement.

   "Who knows what the magic classification level of acromantula is?" Professor Smith clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention back.

   "XXXXX." Fred said.

"Very good." Professor Smith looked around the crowd and warned sternly, "Acromantula is a kind of giant spider that is cruel by nature. It can understand and speak human language, but it also likes to eat human flesh. So, don't Doubt the IQ of these big guys."

   "With your current level of magic, you probably won't even be able to escape when you encounter an acromantula."

   "So what should we do?"

"The best way is naturally to stay away from them." Professor Smith said, "Don't think that you are very powerful because you have learned a little magic, and don't foolishly drill into the Forbidden Forest, that is irresponsible to your life , if you die, Hagrid will have to go into the woods to clean up the wreckage for you, even if I am accidentally attacked by an acromantula, I will lose my life because of it."

   "Can acromantula really speak human language?" Professor Smith's words undoubtedly shocked most of the students, but there were still a few who were very curious.

   "Yes, the acromantula can indeed speak human language."

  In their seats, Fred and George looked at each other in blank dismay. They had actually encountered acromantulas before, and felt that Smith's words were a bit exaggerated. The man next to them was a fierce man who single-handedly singled out hundreds of acromantulas.

"No, Professor Smith is right. Acromantula is very dangerous. Not everyone is as lucky as you." Albert agrees with Professor Smith's words. When facing the giant arachnid in the forest, you need to be careful, for fear of being attacked by surprise.

  Of course, if it was a face-to-face duel, Albert thought he could fight a dozen acromantulas.

"Okay, that's the end of this topic." Professor Smith raised his hand and made a stop gesture, and continued, "Next, let's start our course today, and get to know a magical creature called Kabbah, whose magic classification level is XXXX .”

   "To be honest, Kabbah is not common in Europe, but since it is mentioned in the book..."

In Albert's eyes, Kabbah is a kappa in Japan, living in ponds and rivers that are not deep. defensive person.

  By the way, the way to deal with Kabbah is very funny, that is, throw a cucumber with your name engraved on Kabbah, and it will not hurt the opponent.

   If you want to defeat Kabbah, you only need to trick Kabbah to bow to him, because there is a brain hole on the top of Kabbah's head, which contains water, and once the water flows out, it will lose all its strength.

   There is no doubt that these interesting knowledge amused many students.

   "I don't expect you who have never encountered danger to understand." Professor Smith frowned slightly and warned, "All you have to do is stay away from danger and stay vigilant at all times."

   "Stay away from danger and stay vigilant at all times, understand?" Professor Smith repeated, "This sentence is more effective than the knowledge I just taught you."

   "Don't underestimate any magical creature with a magic classification level of XXXX, otherwise it will definitely be bad luck, or even lose your life."

   The classroom fell into a dead silence. Everyone looked at Professor Smith in astonishment, wondering why he suddenly became strict.

  Defense Against the Dark Arts is still always interesting, Professor Smith can always describe them vividly, and sometimes bring some magical creatures to the class, but today is the first case like this.

   "Okay, you just need to hand in a paper on Kabbah after class. The next topic, I will teach you how to identify and deal with werewolves, you can turn to page 394."

"gentlemen…"

"In my opinion, the most important knowledge in this book is the part about werewolves." Professor Smith raised his hand and interrupted, "Werewolves are very dangerous existences. A transformed werewolf bites or scratches, which means your life will be completely over, which is a more painful torture than direct death."

"In the magical world, most werewolves are oppressed and discriminated against, and begin to hate wizards, and deliberately attack others." Professor Smith explained, "Although not all werewolves are like this, don't expect big Some werewolves can restrain themselves, and individual cases can never represent all."

"During the full moon, werewolves can't choose whether to transform or not, and they will forget their identities after transformation, and even find opportunities to kill people around them. Therefore, it is very important for you to learn how to protect yourself .”

  In class, everyone was a little confused, but they were still looking forward to this part of the course. In the wizarding world, wizards are no less afraid of werewolves than giants and Death Eaters.
