The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

The Forbidden Forest, located to the west of Hogwarts Castle, is a large gloomy grove. According to school regulations, students are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest. The Forbidden Forest is covered with dense, tall trees that cover the entire sky. There are all kinds of dangerous monsters and magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest, which seems to have an infinite attraction for students, and no matter how many times the professors emphasize that they are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest, there will always be students who want to enter the Forbidden Forest to find out.

The dangers of the Forbidden Forest are not something that younger students can handle. It is home to some of England’s most dangerous plants: the dragon’s claw vine and the thorn tree, of which the dragon’s claw vine is the most dangerous, its long, entangled, mucus-secreting rattan is always ready to find victims, the dragon’s claw vine digests an animal without leaving a trace, and its extremely acidic mucus is enough to melt the bones as part of its nutrition. As for the thorn tree, it is its roots that are used to kill, and its roots are human nightmares, it feels the vibration of the ground, thus breaking the soil and pulling the creature under the soil to digest slowly, it digests an animal without leaving a trace.

If a wizard who did not have enough knowledge and vigilance walked into the Forbidden Forest alone, he would probably not return. The Forbidden Forest is not only full of dangerous plants, but also dangerous monsters.

The eight-eyed giant spider is one of the most abundant. Originally, there was no such species in the Forbidden Forest, thanks to Hagrid, who released an eight-eyed giant spider he raised into the Forbidden Forest when he was a student, and later found a companion for the male eight-eyed giant spider, and the result was that the eight-eyed giant spider, an alien species, reproduced wildly in the Forbidden Forest. They occupy a considerable area in the Forbidden Forest, and the rest is on their recipes except for stone and wood.

Ever since the eight-eyed giant spider has been breeding in the Forbidden Forest, the conflict between horses and them has never stopped – after all, horse people are also on their diet. The horse tribe in the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts is arguably the largest tribe in the entire kingdom, and these horse people are quite hostile to wizards, but if you are a student, that is, the “foals” of the horse population, they will not hurt you, but will send you out of the Forbidden Forest.

But then again, fortunately, there is no environmental protection law in the wizarding world, otherwise Hagrid, who single-handedly caused the invasion of alien species and caused serious consequences, would be in big trouble.

The eight-eyed giant spider is not a native species in the Forbidden Forest, and there is no agreement between them and Hogwarts not to interfere with each other. This means that they can break out of the Forbidden Forest for as long as they want. They don’t do it now only because the father of these eight-eyed giant spiders, Aragog, the eight-eyed giant spider that Hagrid raised, is binding his own descendants, but what will happen when Aragog dies is completely unknown.

At the edge of the Forbidden Forest, not far from Hagrid’s cottage, Solim saw Professor Kettleburn from a distance. Because he was so recognizable, just like Hagrid’s tall body, Kettleburn also had characteristics that would be instantly recognizable.

Professor Kettleburn has only one arm and one leg, and he carries two prosthetic limbs. So you can easily recognize him from a distance.

Kettleburn is a passionate and sometimes reckless person who loves the dangerous creatures he studies and cares for, often causing harm to himself and sometimes others. This fact led to being placed on campus no less than sixty-two times during his tenure. Like his successor Hagrid, he always underestimated the dangers of creatures such as the bird snake, Grindillo and fire crab, and once he cast magic on the fire ash snake to play a worm in the “Fountain of Good Luck” drama, which caused the entire Great Hall, an accident that is a household name and you can even see it in “Hogwarts – A History of the School”.

Although a little eccentric, Kettleburn is still a lovely person, and his continued retention to teach is a testament to his popularity with both students and faculty. The two prosthetic legs on his body were given by Dumbledore, but it looked like the prosthesis was very worn, covered with scars and traces of fire.

Solim saw Professor Kettleburn crouching on the ground fiddling with something.

“Good noon, Professor.” Solim spoke up first to say hello.

Kettleburn heard movement behind her and glanced back.

“Oh, it’s you, Solim, come on, I’ll test you, do you know what these cuties are?” Kettleburn straightened up and let go.

Only then did Solim see several cages on the ground. With a glance, Solim knew what these were, and this should be the magical creature that would be used in the afternoon class.

“This is Motra rat, Professor.” Then Solim added: “I don’t want to be bitten by this thing.” ”

The Motra rat is an animal that looks similar to a mouse, but has anemone-like hyperplasias on its back. This creature can be found in the coastal areas of the country of Ying. People bitten by Motra rats will experience symptoms of retching, but in more severe cases, the patient’s chrysanthemum will also spark outward, but for up to forty-eight hours.

The growth of the back of the Motra rat can enhance the ability to resist evil spells after pickling, but excessive consumption can also make people grow unsightly purple ear hair. Motra rat juice has the effect of treating cuts and abrasions, and can also reduce pain.

“Haha, you’re right, bitten by this little guy, if it’s serious, you can only bare ass.” Kettleburn said with a smile.

“By the way, what’s the matter with you coming to me now?” Kettleburn then remembered that Solim had come to him now, probably something.

“Professor, it’s like this, my cousin, Neville, he has a toad, but that toad will always disappear inexplicably, even in a closed environment like a train box. I just want to ask, could this toad be a hybrid? Solim explained the problem briefly.

Kettleburn scratched her face with his intact hand, “Toad? Disappear? How did it disappear? Is it like a ball bird? Or like an invisible beast? ”

Fortunately, Solim knew something about magical creatures, otherwise he wouldn’t really understand what Kettleburn meant by the example.

Ball Bird, is the name of the wizard. Muggles call it a dodo. It was a chocobo that could not fly but could teleport, but since Muggles did not know the teleportation ability of the ball bird, they thought they had made the bird extinct. Ball birds suddenly disappear because they teleport, not invisible. But invisible beasts are really invisible, the secret of invisible beasts can be invisible lies in their fur, and it is for this reason that invisible beasts have been hunted in large numbers, because their fur is the material for making invisibility clothing.

“I don’t know, because we don’t know when that toad disappeared, and every time Neville tried to find it, he couldn’t find it, but after a while, the toad would take the initiative to appear in front of him.” Solim added: “And every time the toad appears after Neville returns to the common room, when he is about to rest, and he usually does not see it.” ”

“Oh? Could it be that Neville was too careless to find it? You know, Neville, that kid…” Kettleburn shook her head at Neville.

“No, Professor, in the box on the train at the beginning of school, the door was closed and the window was closed, but the toad disappeared from under the noses of me, Hermione, and Neville, the entire compartment was gone, and I wasn’t found on the train, but in front of the sorting house, the toad took the initiative to appear next to Neville.”

“Many people have seen this, and Neville even interrupted Professor McGonagall to pick up the toad.” Solim told everything about the toad.

Kettleburn frowned, “This is unusual, Solim, very unusual…”

“So I asked the professor, is it possible that the toad has some unusual abilities because of its special bloodline?” Like the offspring of some magical creatures with stealth abilities? Solim said.

“It is unlikely, if a new magical creature is bred through hybridization, it is necessary to go to the Ministry of Magic for the record, if there is no record, then this act is illegal.” But this year, the Ministry of Magic’s Magical Creatures Management and Control Division only has two new species on file, but you say that this toad was given to him by Neville’s uncle, which is even more unreasonable, an illegally bred new species, to give to his juniors as pets, this is really an extremely irresponsible practice. Kettleburn told Solim what he thought.

Indeed, as Kettleburn said, if it is really a toad with a special bloodline, then it must be a hybrid, but Kettleburn has not heard of such a species. Even if it was bred illegally and Kettleburn didn’t know, how likely was it that the elders would give the younger ones an illegal species that could bring danger and trouble?

After listening to Kettleburn’s words, Solim felt that something about the toad could be determined.
