The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

Chapter 230 Dragon Blood

"Professor, what would happen if a vampire didn't drink blood?"

A Ravenclaw girl raised her hand and asked.

"This is a good question. Vampires don't actually need to eat. They drink blood just so that their bodies will not rot due to lack of iron."

Lupine tapped the blackboard again with the wand in his hand, and a picture gradually appeared on the blackboard.

The half-man, half-bat monster squatted on a high throne, its sharp teeth piercing the fragile human neck.Blood dripped down his white skin and accumulated into a red lake on the ground.

"Vampires can usually appear as normal people, but their bodies are actually like this."

"Disgusting"……

Astoria, who was sitting in the front row, whispered in disgust.

"Yes, although Muggle literature always describes vampires as elegant creatures, I think if they were bitten, they would give up this romantic idea."

Lupine nodded in agreement.

"Being bitten by a vampire will not turn you into a vampire, unless you are very lucky to be attracted by a vampire and give you a first hug directly. But you can rest assured that vampires can only give you a first hug. We treat this matter very seriously and will not easily turn you into a new vampire."

"The following is a personal opinion. Vampires are actually relatively powerful among undead creatures. However, because the weaknesses of this group are too clear, even Muggles who are much worse than us in innate conditions are still capable of killing them. They, this should be the reason why this race has almost disappeared in recent years"...

"However, since our textbooks have not been revised in nearly 30 years, the knowledge about vampires is still required in the exam, so I will teach you a little spell in this class."

When Lupine said this, he cleared his throat.

"Bright as day"!

The tip of the wand in Lupine's hand immediately released an incomparable bright light, and everyone present was shaken off guard.

"This spell can release unparalleled solar rays and can cause huge damage to spiritual bodies. However, it is not recommended to use it when walking at night, because this spell is likely to blind your eyes that have just adapted to the darkness."

Lupine looked at the students who were covering their eyes, and then shook his head gently.

"After all, they are just a group of students who have never experienced danger."

Lupine sighed, and then checked with his eyes the student who had just closed his eyes in time and was now able to open them.

Well, only the boy and the girl sitting in the first row.

But why do these two people look so familiar?

"Everyone will practice this spell in this class, but remember to close your eyes when releasing it, otherwise Madam Pomfrey will be busy again."

Lupine said with a smile to everyone.

"Professor, get out of class won't end in an hour. Do you suggest you tell us some other knowledge about vampires?"

Zhang Qi coughed lightly and then said.

"Of course, kid, what do you want to know?"

Lu Ping said very kindly, then walked down from the podium and sat next to Zhang Qi.

"What is the function of a vampire's blood core?"

Zhang Qi asked.

"Hey, you actually know that the heart of a vampire actually relies on the blood core to beat? You have a complete grasp of extracurricular knowledge."

Lupine raised an eyebrow in surprise, and then continued:

"The blood core of a vampire can convert blood into a certain amount of magic power. However, ancient wizards would use some magic circles to reverse this process, using the blood core of vampires and the magic power of wizards to purify the blood of magical animals."

"Oh, so that's it."

Zhang Qi nodded with sudden realization.

"If I had known better, I would have kept that thing"...

"what is this"?

Lupine asked very curiously.

"I killed a vampire before going to school last year, but I accidentally threw away the blood core"...

Zhang Qi said with some regret.

"?You are the student who once killed a vampire"?

There was an expression called shock on Lupine's face.

"Ah, he not only killed vampires, but also killed a basilisk that lived for more than 1000 years."

Astoria picked up the conversation from the side.

"This is the second time we have met Professor Luping. I actually want to ask when the two composite crossbows can be returned to me"...

Zhang Qi whispered quietly.

"Ah, it turns out that the person yesterday was you."

Lupine said with sudden realization.

"Well, it seems that Principal Dumbledore hasn't told you my identity"?

Zhang Qi asked in surprise.

Could it be that Dumbledore couldn't recruit anyone this year and was afraid that Lupine would break the contract and run away, so he didn't say anything to him?

"what"?

Lupine frowned, with a look of confusion on his face.

"My mother must have been very familiar with you back then. How about I mention a few keywords?"

"Fist, Black Lake, Hagrid's little wooden boat"?

Zhang Qi asked tentatively.

Lupine was startled when he heard these words, and then shuddered.

"You shouldn't be"...

Lu Ping looked at Zhang Qi's face carefully, and finally his eyes stopped on the blue eye.

"This eye of mine follows my mother, and the other eye follows my father."

Zhang Qi said softly.

…………

Morning in England is also morning in North America, but not everyone likes the early morning sunshine.

In the basement of the Magical Congress of the United States, the only lighting patio has been sealed with black cloth. The huge space that was originally transparent and bright now looks so dark under the light of the magic candle.

It's like the future of mankind.

"You are all the best members of the Auror Operations Department of the United States, and you signed and agreed to participate in this plan. However, I still give you the right to regret it."

Xilin stood on the high platform in the middle of the basement and said to the more than thirty Aurors who had formed a queue below.

"Those who want to quit now can still walk out through that door."

After Xilin said these words, he waited for a short while, and no one in the audience made any move.

"Okay then. What is placed on the table in front of you is the latest drug developed by the Prophecy Hall. It is dragon blood purified with vampires."

"The nature of dragon blood is very unstable. If you drink it, you may gain unparalleled power, but it may cause you to die in pain."

Before he finished speaking, the Aurors in the audience had already picked up the bottles in front of them and drank them without hesitation.

"From now on, no one can restore the conscience of Congress."

"In other words, Congress simply doesn't have that thing."

Shirin turned around and walked out of the basement. Behind her, the Aurors who drank the potion were twisting in pain on the ground.

Turquoise scales were crawling along their necks and towards their cheeks.
