"Pomona, are you okay? Is Miss Dupin okay?"
Just as the huge shadow passed, Sprout and Lisa heard Flitwick's voice coming from behind them. They quickly looked back and found that the other party had come to them from the hatch.
"It's nothing," Sprout still held Lisa's arm. When he saw Flitwick approaching, he immediately said, "Did you just see that? Oh... it's really scary!"
"Yes, I'm fine too, Professor Flitwick." Lisa responded.
"Well, it's fine!" Flitwick nodded, and then said to Sprout, "Actually, because the fog was so thick, we didn't see anything over there just now. It's just that that burst of oppression It feels... it’s really unusual!”
Having said this, he waved his hand and said:
"I think it's better to stay away from the side of the ship first! Besides, Severus seems to have discovered something now. Let's go over there and gather together first."
"Yeah?"
When Sprout heard this, he glanced towards the railing subconsciously, and then nodded.
"That's fine... By coincidence, we may have made some new discoveries here."
After that, she pulled Lisa and walked back with Flitwick - but did Professor Sprout notice anything just now? Lisa, who was unaware of this, couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
When the three of them returned to the hatch, they saw Snape squatting next to the unconscious students. There were some bottles and jars at his feet, and he was holding a mortar in his hand, grinding some materials with a little force.
On both sides of the cabin door, Enns and Alexander were watching with interest. Although Snape's level of Potions is indeed worthy of careful observation by others, to a certain extent, both of them are really "heartless" in different senses.
"Severus," Sprout walked two steps closer, "how are the children doing?"
It must be said that after all, Professor Sprout always puts the safety of students first. Even though Flitwick had just mentioned that Snape seemed to have made a new discovery, when she came over and asked, the first person she asked about was still the student.
"Um?"
After Snape heard this, he did not stop pounding the potion with his hands, but only paused for a moment in his mouth.
"It certainly can't be said to be 'nothing serious,' but... at least it's not life-threatening for the time being." He said casually, "In the final analysis, it's still a mental impact... Maybe it's that—didn't that kid McClain study soul magic in the past? ?I think this should be caused by the same type of force."
As he spoke, the material he was grinding seemed to have been processed. As he spoke, he picked up a measuring cup at his feet, poured the thoroughly mashed material into it, and then began to pour it in. Add other powders or liquids one by one.
Finally, he placed the liquid that had been mixed into a slurry for more than half of the measuring cup on the ground, and gently tapped the rim of the cup with his wand.
Immediately, everyone saw a burst of purple-black smoke rising from inside, and the slurry in the measuring cup suddenly turned into a large cup full of lavender juice.
"One point and five ounces per person... Wolfe, feed them." Snape walked up to Alexander with the measuring cup and stuffed it directly into his hand. "We don't have the conditions to prepare potions now, so we can only use them first." Use the coarse mixture to deal with it, at least it can prevent their condition from deteriorating...keep the extra for backup."
After giving the measuring cup to Alexander, he clapped his hands casually and did not collect the bottles and jars on the floor. He turned around and walked to Flitwick and Sprout.
"I'll tell you the truth - I have reason to suspect that Haierbo personally took action."
When there is no subjective need to conceal facts, Snape has always been very straightforward in speaking and doing things, especially when certain things are related to his own personal safety.
"So," he continued immediately, "our greatest hope at the moment is to try to contact Professor McGonagall in MacLean... It's best to hope that she can gain something! Otherwise, we may Lives are at risk! In comparison, this small situation of students is not a big deal."
"This..." Professor Sprout couldn't help but look at him and said, "How can you say that? The safety of the children is much more important than us!"
"Really?" Snape raised his eyebrows, "Well... right, so didn't I already make potions for them right away?"
Although to be honest, Snape didn't really agree with this, he was not a fool, and there was absolutely no point in arguing with Sprout about this. As he had expected this a long time ago, he had already taken the initiative to make a temporary mixture for the conditions of those young wizards.
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Sprout nodded immediately, and then turned around and said, "By the way, in fact, I also made some strange discoveries just now."
After Snape heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows again.
"That big guy who didn't know what he was just showed up again?"
"yes!"
Sprout nodded repeatedly and said:
"It's so scary to pass by the side of the ship... Maybe it's even more frightening because it's unknown! However, in fact, at the moment before it appeared, Miss Dupin had already discovered the changes in hurricane algae! "
At this point, she turned around and nodded to Lisa, as if to praise her, and then continued:
"Actually, the color reaction of the collision of hurricane algae we saw was very small, but the shadow that appeared immediately after it was surprisingly large... Moreover, even if it was so close, we still couldn't see its true face clearly. . I feel that that huge shadow...maybe just a shadow after all!"
Upon hearing this, Snape suddenly said thoughtfully:
"That is to say, the shadow has a real body, and-"
"About the size of a human being," Sprout gestured. "I mean, the size of a normal adult."
However, combined with Snape's speculation just now, the news told by Professor Sprout does not seem to be good news.
Is it really Haierbo who came in person? So why didn't he show up directly instead of doing these tricks in secret
Yes, compared to Haierbo's strength, things like fog, phantom, and soul magic can only be called "small" means.
"In the end, it's just a guess! In short, let's all be careful!"
Finally, it was Flitwick who said this half-comforting, half-reminding voice.
