Chapter 62 Bourne: You don’t want to be a human being anymore? (Please order first!) (Page 13)
Bourne saves Kettlebourne.
Following the pony into the Forbidden Forest, he soon heard the crackling sound of a magic spell and the roar of a ferocious beast.
Although it was diluted by the rain, there was still a faint smell of blood in the air, and the smell was very fresh, unlike the cow blood they put here as bait during the day.
When he quietly approached the clearing where the Thestrals lived, he hid behind a privet tree and looked around, only to realize that the wizard who released the spell was Professor Kettleburn. At this time, he was having a fight with a very " "Plump" monsters are fighting.
The reason why I use the word "plump" to describe it is because although this monster has an extremely ferocious face and is naked, it doesn't look like a human being at all, but her bulging front and back are The body shape still shows obvious female biological characteristics.
However, this monster is definitely not a color-changing ghoul - the guess he made during the day has now been proven.
However, proof is proof, even Bourne couldn't recognize what this thing was?
Even if he searched through the memories in his mind, he couldn't figure out what kind of magical animal this monster was, or what kind of strange dark magical creature it was.
This guy, who was being besieged by Professor Kettleburn and the Thestrals, showed too many characteristics of different species in Burne's eyes.
She stands on a pair of hoof-shaped feet, but she is not a ponlock (a magical creature that likes to take care of the horses, but if the horses do not accept it, it may retaliate against the horses), because the head of the ponlock is generally It is in the shape of a horse or a donkey;
When she stands upright, she is over three meters tall. She has a hunched body and looks a bit like a werewolf, but she does not have the trademark thick hair on her body;
From time to time, she would open her mouth and spit out flames at Professor Kettleburn, like a fire dragon, but she was definitely not the ten kinds of pure blood recorded in "Monsters and Their Origins", the authoritative book on the classification of magical animals. Any kind of fire dragon.
"This seems like a platter, like a hodgepodge." Looking at the appearance of this female monster, Bourne couldn't help but have a suspicion that made him uneasy, uncomfortable and a little angry: "Could this guy be a human being?" Just like that kind of black magic creature like 'Five-legged Monster'.
Moreover, if she was a human before, she just abandoned the honor of being a human being and voluntarily became a monster in order to achieve certain goals..."
Under the Emperor's watchful eye, Born as an Astartes felt the need to usurp some of the responsibilities of the Inquisition.
He even came up with a reason at the speed of light: the sword has no eyes, and the machine soul of the chain sword suddenly became ill and killed someone on its own. How can it be said that it was his fault?
The plan goes through!
It is worth noting that even when inquisitors are performing tasks, necessary procedures must be in place: some cannot adhere to procedural justice and exercise too much subjective initiative - for example, they do not ask the high lord of Terra to sign an extermination order. Arrogantly dropping cyclone torpedoes or virus bombs...
Any judge who dares to do that will usually end up with a blackened file, or simply "no such person".
Therefore, Bourne felt that even if he could not find someone who could "apply for an extermination order," he would at least have to find some definite evidence.
And what happened next proved that when the Astartes, as an extension of the Emperor's will, do something right, they will most likely be guided and even favored by fate——
"Damn human!" the monster roared, and she received a "swoon" released by Kettleburn.
(Bern’s heartfelt evidence is here)
However, perhaps it is because Kettleburn's spell is not strong enough, or perhaps because this monster, like some magical animals, has skin with extremely high magic resistance, so after being cast by the spell, in addition to a cluster of particles erupting from the surface of the skin, Mars, she showed no signs of fainting.
Kettleburn pointed his wand at her and yelled: "Who are you? Why did you break into the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts, and why did you attack these innocent Thestrals in a frenzy!"
The female monster did not answer his question - Madeleine has been suffering from blood addiction recently, but this does not mean that she has lost her brain - she and her companions spent a lot of effort to get in. Hogwarts Castle can't let all the hard work go to waste just because of a trivial matter.
Yes, this Madeleine is an accomplice of Compaore and the others, and she is also an Ouagadu graduate who became a vampire.
However, she has gone further than Compaore and the others - this woman not only invites the "expected" (yes, Quirrell is one of them) to her room to watch exciting programs, she is also a proficient The witch who transformed herself and used various African potions - the idea and the specific process of turning the group into vampires were all made by Madeleine.
The situation at that time was that, facing the encirclement and suppression by the French Ministry of Magic, their group was forced to hide in the sewers of Paris for three full months!
Someone asked, why not just disapparate and leave?
The answer is, they won't.
Wagadu's magic education is somewhat partial, and even wizards who have graduated normally have not received training in apparation. And if you want to participate in the special training courses offered by the French Ministry of Magic (the British Ministry of Magic also has such training courses), it is obviously even more impossible for Compaore and Madeleine to be criminals.
Under the pressure of survival, Madeleine relied on magic potions and the skills of Ouagadu's version of "Animagus" to turn herself and others into vampires.
The "transformation" she designed is somewhat similar to the "Animagus" that transforms into magical animals - but it is like the hyped room temperature superconductivity. Although it looks similar, the result is not the same at all - —And, just like the wizard who once experimented with the magical animal "Animagus", soon after escaping from the pursuit of the French Ministry of Magic, their group discovered the drawbacks of "transformation".
Yes, that's right, their vampire transformation seemed to be successful, but it turned out that this transformation had huge side effects.
A real vampire can meet his survival needs by drinking plasma once a week on average without feeling hungry.
And if blood with magic power is used as food, such as fire dragon blood and Riem ox blood, which are usually sold as potion ingredients, they can eat for months or even a whole year without feeling hungry.
But Madeleine and Compaore's gang, even if they drink magic blood (even the blood of a wizard), blood addiction will still plague them. If they don't drink the magical blood once a week, they will get sick every week.
Some people may ask, if they use that blood as food - or at most eat more frequently - aren't they just like normal vampires?
But the reality is that this problem is huge.
First of all, as mentioned above, the magic-rich blood available on the market is basically a potion material. Their price is very high. Four vampires drink five or six pounds of blood every week, even the cheaper fire dragon blood (this is also thanks to Dumbledore, who published "Dragon's Blood" when he was young. Twelve uses", which prompted the emergence of fire dragon sanctuaries and commercial dragon farms), which also requires about 200 Galleons.
For reference, the average salary of staff at the British Ministry of Magic is almost over 100 galleons. In this regard, it is still relying on those first-line Aurors who earn a slightly higher salary than the Minister of Magic to raise the average salary level of the Ministry of Magic.
