The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Chapter 365 Kabbah in the Swamp

"Kaba!" Professor Luping knocked on the large water tank next to him, which seemed to awaken some kind of creature inside. It started to stir up a huge sludge inside, stirring up a large amount of sludge at the bottom of the tank. The water that was already yellow was now even more... It's turbid.

However, the sharp-eyed little wizard still saw a scaly claw flash past the edge of the glass.

"Have any students previewed the textbook in advance and know what kind of animal Kappa is?" Professor Luping asked a question and waited expectantly for the little wizards to answer.

Sure enough, Hermione raised her hand.

"Very well, Miss Granger, please come and introduce Cabba to everyone." Seeing that the other students had no intention of answering, Lupine nodded at Hermione.

Many times, Hermione was the only student in class who answered questions. With her positive answers day after day and year after year, others have become accustomed to this way of teaching. Sometimes even if other students know the answer to a question, they will subconsciously ask Hermione to answer it.

"Kabbah is a Japanese water monster that mainly sucks human blood. They will attack unsuspecting people wading through the pond and strangle them to death." Hermione memorized the description of Kabbah from the textbook. Come out, word for word.

"That's absolutely correct, Miss Granger, but I'm going to give you an additional expansion question that's not in the textbook. Where is Kabbah most common? Other students who know can also answer it." Professor Lupine was satisfied with Hermione's answer. But not entirely satisfied.

He always felt that Hermione memorized things by rote and was not very flexible, so he planned to give Hermione an expansion question to expand her thinking.

This question stopped Hermione: Where is Kabbah most common? It must be Japan! Didn’t you see in the textbook that Kabbah originated in Japan?

What bothered Hermione was that the question seemed too simple and made her have some doubts.

However, other students in the class could not understand Hermione's doubts, and several young wizards became eager to try. They thought in their minds: If Granger didn't answer, they would go up and answer the question. This question would most likely bring extra points to the college.

For the little wizards at Hogwarts, extra points from the academy are quite tempting. A "Buddhist" guy like Tom is a different kind. You know, most little wizards still worry about which colleges they are assigned to in seventh grade.

"Japanese?" Hermione said with some uncertainty.

In everyone's surprised eyes, Professor Luping shook his head.

"The most common place for Kappa is not Japan - but Mongolia. In fact, in those densely populated countries and regions, the number of wild magical animals is almost negligible." Professor Lu Ping patiently told the confused little wizards Explaining.

“For wild Kappa to exist in a place, it must meet the following requirements: there are rivers and swamps, and the land is vast and sparsely populated but not completely deserted. Therefore, in the end, Mongolia was the most common place for Kappa.”

Hermione: o(Д)っ!

She hurriedly sat down and wrote down the knowledge she just heard in her notebook.

"Actually, the existence of magical animals has always been a challenge to the Statute of Secrecy. If you have time, you can consult Professor Scamander and ask him how much trouble magical animals have brought to wizards."

The Statute of Secrecy can restrict wizards, but it cannot restrict countless magical animals. It's a little easier for big guys like the fire dragon, just set aside a "protected area" for them and keep them under strict supervision, but small animals like Sniff are difficult to control.

"Okay, it's time to get down to business. Today I'm going to teach you how to deal with Kappa." Professor Lupine took out his wand, turned around, and looked at the blackboard behind him.

"Fortunately, the layout hasn't changed yet." He muttered in a very low voice, and then he tapped the four corners of the blackboard with the tip of his wand.

Something magical happened: the blackboard cracked. The blackboard that split into two parts slid to both ends of the classroom, revealing an empty classroom.

The little wizards present were all sure that they had never seen this classroom before. Different from other abandoned classrooms in the castle, there is not a single table or chair in this classroom, and it is clean as if it has just been renovated.

"Swamp." Lupine said to the empty classroom. The changes in the classroom in the next moment were beyond the imagination of all the little wizards: the floor of the classroom began to twist, and mud, water, and moss came out bit by bit, eventually covering the entire room. Classroom floors are fully covered. The walls of the classroom are also covered with vines, just like a real swamp.

It's like someone dug a swamp out of somewhere and pasted it into Hogwarts.

This magical classroom was accidentally discovered by Lu Ping when he was in school. It can change the terrain at will. The only drawback is that this classroom is a bit small...

But it is also sufficient as a teaching venue. With such a venue, Lu Ping can also take classes freely. Lupine has always believed that the only way to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts is through practical teaching.

So he tried his best to find Boggart, so he prepared a swamp and a Kabbah. , and countless "textbooks"...

Kabbah is actually a magical animal that is not very strong - it only has a three-star rating and is a magical animal that a capable wizard can deal with. It's just that it usually chooses to sneak attack the enemy, and it can still cause a little trouble without knowing it.

For a third grade wizard, this kind of intensity training is just right.

"Kabbah looks a bit like a monkey, but a little more disgusting - because of those scales. Kabbah is not very friendly to humans. It will try to strangle those who wade through the pond without defense..." Although Hermione Having already answered this question, Professor Lupine still introduced Kabbah seriously.

After that, he told a few more tips on dealing with Kabbah, which fascinated the little wizards.

"If you throw a cucumber with your name on it at Kabbah, Kabbah may not attack this person..."

"There is a hollow filled with water on the top of its head, and the water inside can provide energy for this creature. If Kaba is tricked into bowing, the water in the hollow above its head will flow out, and it will lose its power..."

The interest of the little wizards was successfully aroused in this way. No need to emphasize or copy, the knowledge about Kabbah was remembered in the minds of the little wizards.

Professor Lupine opened the lid of the water tank. The next second, a monkey covered in scales and with webbed hands jumped out of the water tank and jumped into the swamp.

"Does anyone want to try to deal with this Kappa? Don't worry, I'm right behind you and I will definitely ensure your safety." Professor Lu Ping glanced at the students present, but he was a little disappointed to find that everyone Not very interested.

The reason is also very simple. The Kabbah has now hidden in the swamp. If you fight it, you will definitely be covered in mud. No one wants to be soggy and smelly.

"Is there no one?" Lupine asked again, but still found no volunteers, "Then I can only name them - Yoder, come and show us how to do it."

Tom:…

He doesn’t want to go into the swamp either! But after being clicked, he had no room to refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and walk into the swamp behind the blackboard.

The land at the edge of the swamp was still mud, but after taking two steps forward, there were puddles one after another. There is a layer of phytoplankton floating on the surface of the puddle. Under the plants is stagnant water that has not been replaced for an unknown period of time. The bottom of the water is bottomless mud...

Tom didn't want to go any further. He had a premonition that if he continued to move forward, sooner or later he would fall into mud enough to submerge his calves.

"Damn Kabbah, why haven't you shown up yet?" Tom was in a dilemma. After taking two deep breaths, he made up his mind and stepped forward, truly entering the swamp.

He could feel the water covering his shoes, soaking his trouser legs, and a cold feeling coming from his calves.

After going deeper, the water reached the waist. At this time, every step forward required a lot of effort.

Suddenly there was a burst of exclamation from the classmates. Without thinking, Tom punched behind him. He felt as if his fist hit a fish and made a "pop" sound.

Tom turned around and saw a strange creature standing not far away, covering its face and grinning at him.

"Disgusting!" This was Tom's first impression of this guy. Think about it, a scaly monkey…

The Kaaba was not eager to fight, but was trying to escape.

"Stupefied!" How could Tom let it go? He hit it with a stun spell on its back, knocking it unconscious.

Tom easily solved Kabbah and walked out of the swamp.

"The response is very fast!" Professor Lupine walked up to Tom with a plate of chocolate, first cleaned up the water stains and mud on his body, and then broke off a large piece of chocolate for him. After doing this, he also woke up the knocked out Kabbah and watched it escape into the swamp.

"You should all have seen," Professor Lupine said loudly after Tom was returned to his seat, "Kabbah is not very courageous. When Yoder faced it, it lost the courage to fight..."

"Professor, what if you fail to avoid its sneak attack?" Megan Jones of Hufflepuff asked such a question. She believed Tom's success was due to his lightning reflexes. She saw clearly just now that Tom's fist moved almost as soon as the Kaaba jumped out of the water.

To be fair, she didn't think she had such quick reaction speed. If you were to go up by yourself, you would most likely be grabbed by the neck and dragged into the mud, right?

"Good question." Professor Lu Ping felt a little better when he saw a student asking a question. "I'll show you how to handle it."

Because Kabbah has to choke his neck, this demonstration is a bit dangerous, and Professor Lupine plans to go into battle himself.

He walked into the swamp. Soon, a monkey head appeared behind him and followed him for a few meters. Lu Ping seemed unaware and just walked along minding his own business.

Kaba followed for a few steps and felt that the time was ripe, so he jumped out of the water and grabbed Professor Lupine's throat with both hands.

Done! Kaba was ecstatic.

The students exclaimed in unison, and several young wizards stood up subconsciously.

This Kabbah was so strong that it almost pulled Professor Lupine down when he put his hands around his neck. However, Professor Lupine was well prepared, and Cabba's charged attack only made him stagger.

He drew out his wand as quickly as possible and pointed the tip of the wand at the fingers on his neck.

"Relax with all your strength!"

Kabbah's fingers involuntarily let go of Lupine's neck, and it slipped weakly from Lupine's body, fell into the swamp, and was then tied up by the rope conjured by Lupine.

"A simple little spell can help us get out of trouble. The most important point is to stay calm." Amid the applause of the little wizard, Professor Lu Ping calmly explained to the students the measures he had just taken.

"However, the method just now is still very dangerous. If it were stronger, I might be dragged into the water by it. Or, my curse might accidentally hit my own neck, which would be even worse. Ruined."

"So children, you must be vigilant in places like swamps. The best response is to find Kappa and scare them away or knock them out."

After demonstrations by Tom and himself, Professor Lupine felt that the students should be able to deal with Kabbah. So he motioned to the little wizards in the audience to walk into the swamp one by one and confront Kabbah.

However, he found that his judgment seemed to be wrong, and the little wizards were more fragile than he thought.

After several young wizards walked into the swamp, they shrank like frightened quails. Their whole bodies were stiff and they did not dare to move. Kaba can knock them down and drag them into the stagnant water of the swamp with just one pounce.

At this point, it's basically hopeless. Lupine could only smile bitterly and take action himself, rescued the little wizard, helped them clean their clothes, and spit out the sewage they drank.

"This reaction is not good," Tom complained to his classmates while sitting in his seat, eating chocolate, "They really need some practical training."

It's outrageous that the students of Hogwarts are no match for Kabbah. I even tried to teach them practical lessons last year, but it had no effect at all?

"Hermione Granger!"

Just as she was talking, Hermione was called up by Professor Lupin.

"Come on!" With Professor Lupin's encouraging eyes, Hermione walked into the swamp.

After she had taken a few steps, several bells suddenly sounded from the water beneath her. Hermione suddenly became alert. She pricked up her ears and listened carefully to what was going on nearby.

She noticed something unusual: there was the sound of water coming from behind!

She turned around directly, and a levitating spell shot out from the tip of her staff, hitting Kaba's body and trapping it in mid-air.

Kaba struggled hard, lost his balance, and was hung head down. At this time, the water in the hollow above its head flowed out.

The current took away its strength, weakening it and eventually causing it to pass out.
