章節 182: Squat Down, Close Your Eyes, And Open Your Mouth, Let Me Show You The Gift I Prepared For You!(1)
Almost all the professors were in the auditorium.
Therefore, when they heard about the giant monster troll.
Most of the professors with combat abilities followed.
After all, a giant monster troll broke into Hogwarts.
This was a big deal.
Usually, when students bump into each other.
Those are major accidents.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be guarding the Forbidden Forest so tightly.
The crisis tonight was a giant monster troll.
If students encountered a giant monster troll...
It was more than just bumping into each other.
These things could eat people.
"Why are you all standing there? Where is the giant monster troll!?"
The current professor of Magical Creatures Protection, Silvanus Kettleburn, rushed over excitedly.
He just smelled the stench and concluded that it was a mountain troll.
Adhering to the principle that specialized affairs should be managed by professionals.
He believed that as the professor of Magical Creatures Protection, he was the best candidate to handle this matter.
Of course, because he only had one arm and half a leg left, he walked slower than everyone else.
That's why he found it strange that everyone was standing in front of the bathroom door.
But when he bypassed everyone and gasped for breath, looking into the door, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Merlin! He has tamed the mountain troll!"
As a magical zoologist, he couldn't be more familiar with creatures like trolls.
To be precise, he had encountered this kind of silly and dangerous creature before.
Trolls could indeed be tamed.
And the behaviour of this troll now was exactly the behaviour after being tamed!
''But... how is this possible?''
''The stupid brains of trolls make it almost impossible for them to understand the commands given by wizards.''
"So, taming a troll requires years of persistence!"
"Using long and repetitive training to make them develop habits..."
"And then using these newly formed habits to control their brains."
''But, no matter what, the little guy in front shouldn't be the one who can tame a troll!''
After hearing Professor Kettleburn's words. All the professors looked even more surprised at Blake.
[Ding... Golden Treasure Chest +1]
[... Golden Treasure Chest +1]
[... Silver Treasure Chest +1]
As Blake expected, this move of his.
Allowed him to receive a wave of high-quality treasure chests!
After tonight, he should be able to synthesize a diamond treasure chest again!
It was really satisfying!
Dumbledore glanced at Professor Kettleburn.
Professor Kettleburn understood and walked forward to take a look at the troll.
Then he turned around and said, "Don't worry, Albus, this troll has been completely tamed...
"To be precise, as long as this little guy doesn't give the command, it won't attack."
Dumbledore looked at Blake and asked seriously,
"So... can you tell me what happened?"
"Why didn't you follow the instructions and return to your dormitory?"
Hermione took two steps forward, wanting to speak.
But Blake reached out his right hand and placed it on her shoulder.
He knew that this little girl wanted to take all the blame upon herself.
In order to let everyone, including Blake, escape the punishment that would follow.
However...
Blake believed it was unnecessary.
They were clearly the victims, how could the victims be considered at fault?
He pointed at Hermione.
"When I finished class, I heard that she had been crying in the girls' restroom all afternoon."
"So, as her friend, I wanted to find her and ask her what had happened."
"Therefore, I didn't go to the auditorium and didn't hear any instructions."
"And... because I didn't know which girls' restroom she was crying in, I looked for a while."
"When I found this place, I saw this guy, as well as Harry and Ron."
Blake pointed at the restroom sign that had fallen on the ground.
"Seeing this, I realized that this was the girls' restroom."
"I guessed that Hermione might be inside... and that guy had already gone in."
"As a friend, I couldn't convince myself to stand by and do nothing."
"So... I decided to go in and help."
"And the result... as you can see, Professor... I don't know why, but it listened to my command."
Dumbledore recalled Blake's pet bear from before.
Before he formally adopted this child.
He was able to make the fierce bear obediently become his pet.
So... it seemed reasonable that he could tame a giant mountain troll.
'This seemed to be an innate ability of his.'
Thinking of Blake's peculiar background.
Dumbledore immediately didn't find it strange anymore.
Innate abilities sometimes couldn't be explained by common sense.
Unlike Dumbledore's quiet contemplation.
Snape habitually sprayed his venom.
"Now that this giant troll has been tamed by you... can I assume that you let it in?"
Blake looked coldly at him, "Why would I let a giant into the school?"
"It almost harmed my friend!"
"I have few friends, Professor Snape."
"So I won't allow them to be harmed in front of me."
"Whether it's physical harm or... verbal harm..."
Snape weakly covered his chest and took two steps back.
He looked palely at Blake.
Blake's words seemed unintentional.
To others, there was nothing wrong with them.
But in Snape's ears...
They were like words that pierced his heart!
It was almost like stabbing a knife into his heart!
His estrangement from Lily began with him calling her a mudblood, didn't it?
That was also the most regretful thing in his life...
If Blake didn't do it on purpose...
Then it was equivalent to delivering a ten-thousand-fold blow with his eyes closed!
'I was careless... the dose of the Euphoria Potion wasn't enough...' Snape regretfully thought.
[Ding! Detected extremely regretful emotions.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a golden treasure chest.]
Blake was somewhat disappointed that this sudden attack only yielded a golden treasure.
According to his expectations, there should have been a diamond treasure chest.
But he actually didn't know.
Now, whenever Snape sees him, he would subconsciously take a dose of Euphoria potion.
To prevent himself from being driven crazy by this guy.
From the current perspective, his decision was correct.
It was just a pity... that the dosage would mess with the quality chests Blake could get from him.
Hermione looked at Blake gratefully.
Because Blake spoke up first.
Therefore, they both became victims.
Since they were victims, naturally they didn't need to be blamed.
Hermione felt that if she had spoken up first, she would have been deducted points by Professor McGonagall.
Because this time, she wanted to take full responsibility.
Dumbledore glanced at Quirrell. He knew exactly who was causing trouble tonight.
It was simply Quirrell's attempt to divert everyone's attention with a giant monster.
So that he could have a chance to break into the room on the fourth floor... and get what's inside.
However... Snape always remembered the task Dumbledore had given him.
Instead of searching for the giant monster troll with everyone else, he kept an eye on Quirrell.
That's why Quirrell couldn't successfully break into the room on the fourth floor.
