The Great Writers of Hogwarts

Chapter 6 Potions and Harassing Gadflies
It is not that Xenophilius has read suspenseful and curious works, many of which are still masterpieces.

But Andre's fragmented skills from his previous life, combined with the unexpected plot of "Harry Potter", really made Xenophilius feel like he was on top.

"J.K. Rowling, you have done all kinds of bad things, how can you stop here?!"

Xenophilius patted his thigh and stood up from the chair excitedly.

Judging by his posture, if he knew who J.K. Rowling was, he might have to pull out his wand to ask about the follow-up plot.

Fortunately, at this moment, Andre's foster mother, Pandora, came out of the kitchen.

She has long, smooth light golden hair, and her facial features are exquisite but not vulgar, with an ethereal feeling. It seems that Luna's ethereal and beauty in the original book is inherited from this.

While waving her magic wand, Pandora made the trays containing all kinds of food fly to the table neatly and steadily like a line, while looking at Xenophilius curiously.

Having been in love for many years, she still knows Xenophilius quite well. What can make Xenophilius so excited must be seeing some excellent works.

"My dear, what is the submission that makes you so excited?"

Xenophilius gritted his teeth.

"A work that makes people love and hate..."

While talking, Xenophilius carefully rolled up the parchment, held a teacup in the other hand, held a piece of bread in his mouth, and said vaguely.

"I have to prepare the next issue of "The Quibbler". With this submission, I think the front page of the next issue can be settled."

"Believe me dear, it's going to be a sensation and we'll be rich in no time!"

Pandora watched Xenophilius go to the workshop with admiration and admiration on his brows.

"After so many years, he is still as passionate about writing as he was back then."

"Andre, this is what I admire most about your father..."

Just when Andre was about to reply, with a wave of Pandora's wand, a porcelain bowl containing a strange liquid fell in front of Andre.

"Andre, it's time to drink the medicine."

"Hey, it's good for your body, drink it soon."

Andre glanced at the porcelain bowl in front of him.

The potion inside was very similar to the "fel energy" he had seen in World of Warcraft in his previous life. Not only was it a strange dark green in color, but it was also bubbling and bubbling, giving off a pungent smell.

Andre felt sad for a while.

"Is this kind of thing that looks like a fel drink really drinkable? Wouldn't it turn into an orc after drinking it?"

"It's no wonder the predecessor died. It's not normal to drink this potion every day without any problems."

Pandora looked at Andre strangely, and urged him a few words.

"Drink quickly, Andre, this potion is not cheap to brew."

Andre's scalp tingled for a while, he had just traveled through time, and he really didn't dare to take such a risk to drink such a bowl of "fel energy" drink.

After all, there is a lesson from "Andre"!
He quickly changed the subject and asked Pandora.

"By the way, I don't think I've ever asked, where is this special potion brewing method recorded?"

"Which potion master created such a magical potion?"

Andre knew that Pandora had a strong interest in magic experiments, so his question must be able to attract Pandora's attention.

He himself was pacing quietly, intending to find a place to pour the potion while Pandora was eloquently explaining.

But the next moment, the words from Pandora's mouth made Andre's footsteps stop suddenly.

"It's amazing, right? The origin of this potion is far longer than any known potion science book. I deciphered it from a book that recorded the absurd, strange, terrifying and mysterious knowledge in ancient times. of."

"That's fascinating knowledge, and I found that book when I was young, in the middle of a mountain full of uneasy feelings and jagged rocks.

I dare say that even Dumbledore and You-Know-Who would be hungry for the knowledge and secrets recorded above. "

Andre turned his head in disbelief.

Why did Pandora's description give him an extremely ominous premonition, as if he had heard something similar to this type of description before.

"This thing...couldn't come from some indescribable, indescribable existence beyond the cognition of ordinary people?"

With some luck, Andre asked.

Pandora's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

"Yes, indescribable, indescribable, beyond the scope of cognition, oh, Andre, your use of these words is really accurate!"

"I've been trying to find some words like this to describe this feeling."

As she spoke, a look of fanaticism appeared on Pandora's face.

"The knowledge I found came from the most distant ancient times."

"As we all know, the source of magic for wizards is not so glorious.

Although many people don't want to admit it, the magic of wizards does come from the blood of magical animals...

But some people have entered a deeper exploration in this direction. Did magical animals appear at the beginning of the world?
Are they extraordinary species with magical powers from the beginning of the world? "

"Someone has found fragmented clues in the dust of history, just like the knowledge I found, all signs point out that - magical animals did not start to have magic power in the oldest age, their magic power has another source, the source From some mysterious ancient gods.

The earliest ancestors of magical animals were the followers of those gods. After being transformed by those gods, they became existences called family members. From then on, magic power began to flow in their blood, and was passed on from generation to generation. "

"Very interesting anecdote, right? This is the result of my many years of research, and it is an absolutely eye-popping discovery in the history of magic.

It's a pity that those magic historians actually said that I was crazy, that I was talking about a madman, they didn't understand what they missed! "

The more Andre listened to Pandora's words, the more his heart sank.

The most ominous premonition in my heart was verified. Heck, the real world of Harry Potter really has deeper secrets, and he actually came into contact with it at Lovegood's house!
Andre also suddenly remembered an incident recorded in the original book.

When Luna Lovegood was nine years old, her mother Pandora died in front of her as a result of a magical experiment.

Some say that since then, Luna, who was already a bit weird, has only gotten weirder.

And Xenophilius, too. The father and daughter firmly believed that there was a magical creature called a "harassing horsefly" in the world, which would disturb people's thoughts and buzz non-stop in people's ears.

Andre felt a chill run up his spine.

An idea surged in my mind...

Could the magic experiment that caused Pandora's death touch those indescribable beings?

Afterwards, Luna and Xenophilius became a little nervous, and they firmly believed that they had the symptoms of the harassing gadfly. Could it be because of the influence they received in that experiment?
At this moment, Pandora kept waving her hands away as if there were flies around her, with an annoyed look on her face.

But the strange thing is that Andre didn't see any mosquitoes.

He asked in a deep voice.

"Are there mosquitoes or flies?"

Pandora shook her head.

"No, no, no, that's not a mosquito or a fly."

"Mosquitoes and flies are babbling in your ears, it really destroys the mind, it's really a confusing sound."

"Believe me, this sound must come from an invisible magical being that lives in the ether.

I've already decided on a name for it, and I'll call it this unprecedented magical creature—the Harassing Gadfly. "

Saying that, Pandora waved her hand again with disgust.

"I feel that the group of harassing gadflies has become bigger, and they must have been multiplying in the ether recently..."
