Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

"Of course I know this!" Professor Kettleburn immediately perked up when he mentioned magical animals. It could be seen that he really loved magical creatures very much, and he was well aware of most of the magical creatures in the world. of.

"The three-headed dog is a very rare creature. It is said that the blood of the three-headed dog comes from Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell that guards the entrance to the underworld. According to myths and legends, in order to pass its guard, you need to use music to let you pass. Cerberus falls into slumber, and this is reflected in the three-headed dogs, whose weakness is that they fall asleep after hearing music.”

"It's just that there is no specific conclusion yet on whether the three heads of the three-headed dog have different thoughts like the rune snake. After all, there are too few people in the world who study the three-headed dog." Kettleburn The professor put down the cup in his hand and spoke eloquently.

"I remember that the keeper of the Forbidden Forest, Rubeus Hagrid, had a three-headed dog, didn't he?" Professor Kettleburn paused, as if recalling something, "I remember that its name seemed to be Lu Wei? "

"That's right, the question I want to ask you is about Lu Wei." Wright smiled bitterly and took out an event photo from the mok bag on his waist, which he took some time ago. Lu Wei, who filled the whole room, was showing off his power with bared teeth.

"Is this Lu Wei?" Professor Kettleburn's eyes widened, and he gestured with his only remaining hand, "I remember it wasn't so big at the time, right? Why has it become so big now? ?”

"This Hagrid had already given Lu Wei to me as a gift last year." Wright explained to Professor Kettleburn.

"The reason why Lu Wei became such a big size is probably related to the fact that I always feed it." Wright sighed softly. If he had known better, he would not have fed Lu Wei so much shadow energy. A silly dog ​​who wants to eat every time he opens his mouth!

"Oh? What did you feed him?" Professor Kettleburn suddenly asked with great interest. He was always full of desire to discover everything about magical creatures, no matter in which aspect.

"Professor Kettleburn, can I not say anything about my privacy?" A look of obvious embarrassment appeared on Wright's face.

"Actually, I can guess some without you having to tell me." Professor Kettleburn saw that Wright was not prepared to explain the reason to him. After thinking for a while, he expressed his own guess, "It is rumored that every three The alpha dogs all contain a certain amount of the blood of Cerberus, the three-headed dog from hell. You must be feeding Lu Wei some food rich in dark energy, right?"

Wright nodded wildly, trying to muddle through.

Although Professor Kettleburn's guessed conclusion is somewhat different from the real facts, it is not far off. Wright didn't want to explain to him that what he fed Lu Wei was not food rich in dark energy, but shadow energy that was so pure that it solidified!

"Although I don't know where you got so many foods rich in dark energy, and I don't know how Dumbledore allowed you to come into contact with those things." Professor Kettleburn frowned, but was still sincere. He warned Wright, "But I must remind you that this kind of advanced energy is not something that a young wizard of your age can come into contact with frequently."

"Yes, I understand." Wright nodded. He couldn't say that he was the owner of shadow energy!

"Then what question do you want to ask?" Professor Kettleburn put aside the previous topic about dark energy food and continued to ask Wright.

"It's like this," Wright explained to him, "Due to my improper feeding methods before, Lu Wei's current size is really too big. If he is allowed to continue to grow like this, Castle Four will soon be The room downstairs where it is placed cannot hide it!"

"If such a big three-headed dog appears in the castle, it will definitely cause panic among the students in the castle." Wright said, "This is why Principal Dumbledore asked me to come to you."

As one of the professors of the school, although he was not involved in the layout of the specific levels, Professor Kettleburn also heard the news that Dumbledore invited many professors to decorate a secret room. If he hadn't been exposed to some highly dangerous magical animals, I believe Dumbledore would have invited him to set up a corresponding level.

"So, you want to solve the problem of Lu Wei's huge size?" Professor Kettleburn asked bluntly.

"That's right!" Wright nodded crisply.

"If you want to solve Lu Wei's size problem, here are three ways." Professor Kettleburn stretched out three fingers with his only remaining hand.

Wright immediately listened.

"The first one is to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause." Professor Kettleburn said, "Now stop feeding it food rich in dark energy. Although if you do this, Lu Wei's size will continue to increase. But the speed should be much slower than it is now. But at its current growth rate, even if it slows down, it will still collapse the house before this summer vacation."

"The second one is to treat the symptoms as well as the root cause. Kill Lu Wei directly. That would be the end of it!" Professor Kettleburn said cruelly.

Before Wright could express his opinion, Professor Kettleburn continued: "It's just that you must have thought of these two methods, but you have not adopted them. That's why Principal Dumbledore asked you to come to me. Here, it must be the third method that only exists here."

"Yes," Wright admitted what Professor Kettleburn just said, "I have indeed thought of the two methods you mentioned, and I have not adopted either the first or the second."

"What about you?" Wright looked at Professor Kettleburn tentatively, "Can you tell me about the third method now?"

"Before I tell you about the third method, I have a few questions that I need to ask you about." Professor Kettleburn suddenly stared at Wright closely.

"Please tell me."

"First question, is Lu Wei completely yours now?"

"Yes." Wright nodded affirmatively.

"Second question, is it really Principal Dumbledore who asked you to come to my place?"

"That's right." There is no doubt about this.

"The third question, in fact, the food rich in dark energy that I just guessed is actually your own magic power, right?"

"Is it...huh?"
