Wade said, "They only look ferocious, but they won't really bite off a person's hand. At most, they will just leave a few pinhole-like wounds."
"Will it be less intimidating in this case?" Professor Abigail asked as she teased the puppets. "You see, students may be frightened by them at first, but once they understand that these puppet werewolves won't cause much harm, they will become lawless!"
"That won't happen," Weed said confidently, "because I injected stinging nettle juice into their teeth."
"Narrow-leaved nettle?" Professor Abigail was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, Wade, you are so mean!"
Wade shrugged and said, "You can't really bite my classmates' hands and feet off, right? It will only hurt a little, and the consequences are already very minor compared to encountering a real werewolf."
The juice of stinging nettle contains various irritating substances, which can cause intense pain even if it just touches the skin.
The juice that Wade injected into the werewolf puppet's teeth was a simple liquid he had refined. The pain was more severe, but it was also easy to relieve. Just apply a little bit of Dictamni ointment.
Therefore, he also had a little design here - all the werewolf puppets had a few small bottles hanging on their waists, which were filled with Dictamni ointment, which responded to the saying "where there is poison, there must be an antidote within seven steps."
Professor Abigail walked around with great interest, and after looking at each werewolf, she asked, "Can you transform?"
"of course."
Wade clapped his hands, and several werewolf puppets suddenly looked up at the moon. Their bodies trembled slightly, their heads stretched out, their noses protruded, gray-black hair sprouted from their bodies, their teeth became sharper, and their backs bent forward...
In this terrifying scene, Wade explained: "The transformation takes about ten seconds, which gives everyone a chance to escape or organize a counterattack."
Professor Abigail had half her wand out. She stared at the changing werewolves nervously, nodded and said, "Oh - good - it is necessary."
With a few long howls, all the werewolf puppets were transformed. They were huge in size, and their four legs were thinner than those of ordinary wolves. Standing on the ground, they were only a head shorter than Wade, and transparent saliva was dripping between their pointed teeth.
The werewolf's fur is not as dense and smooth as that of an ordinary wolf, but much sparser, which makes the monster appear to be human-like and terrifying.
Professor Abigail gave Wade a deep look.
In books about fantastic beasts, the images of werewolves are mostly hand-painted black and white pictures, which allow people to clearly identify their characteristics, but are far from realistic.
Abigail knew what a werewolf looked like. She had seen a werewolf transform more than once, and even cast a spell herself to save several reservists who had almost failed to transform.
At the same time, the fact that Wade could create such a lifelike werewolf puppet shows that he must have lived with the real werewolf - the werewolf that transformed on the night of the full moon - day and night, so he could clearly see all the details before and after the werewolf's transformation.
—Is that Remus Lupin?
It is said that both Weed Grey and Harry Potter stayed at that man's house for a period of time during the holidays.
Thinking of the organization's previous plan, Abigail looked away awkwardly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Several werewolf puppets demonstrated a series of actions in the room, such as pouncing, biting, ambushing, and chasing. They even attacked with clear division of labor, appearing to be very smart and flexible.
After the performance, they return to their original form.
Abigail naturally praised it highly.
Then, Wade showed four vampire puppets. They looked no different from ordinary humans and could even act.
A very handsome vampire puppet, who looks a bit like Cedric, and speaks all kinds of sweet words -
"My love for you will last until death."
The vampire puppet held Professor Abigail's hand and said affectionately:
"You are my life. After I met you, I never wanted to leave. You are so charming that you make a fool of me."
It murmured as it moved closer, looking as if it wanted to give the other a kiss, but suddenly opened its mouth wide, revealing two long, fangs.
Professor Abigail, who was watching the performance expressionlessly, suddenly swung her fist, followed by a shoulder throw, throwing the vampire puppet out.
"Well, this guy can charm a bunch of silly girls even without making a move." Professor Abigail clapped her hands and said, "Are the others of this style as well?"
Vader smirked, "Professor, why don't you try it yourself?"
Professor Abigail did not intend to let him watch the show, and said, "Okay, I will find out one by one later - can these turn into bats?"
Wade said regretfully, "Unfortunately, they can't - due to the limitations of the materials, if they want to transform, they can only become bats as big as cars. So I gave up the transformation and only gave them a function to release small bats."
Professor Abigail looked and saw that the vampire puppet that had fallen to the ground had already climbed up. It bowed gracefully and returned to the queue of puppets.
Several vampire puppets clapped their hands, and bats flew out and flew directly towards her face. The moment Abigail's eyes were drawn, the four puppets suddenly disappeared from their original positions.
Professor Abigail was stunned for a moment, looked around, and found that some of these guys took the opportunity to hide under the table with their knees hugged, some hid behind the curtains, some jumped onto the top of the cabinet like cats, and one hung in the corner of the roof like a giant spider.
Abigail: “…”
"Well..." She suppressed her laughter and said, "It's quite useful in the wild."
"There are also four giant monsters as gifts."
Vader pulled out a box, and inside it were four little green trolls, angrily beating each other.
"Because these guys stink, I won't let them out. The shrinking spell will be ineffective tomorrow morning. If you don't have a place to put them for the time being, remember to cast the spell in time - these guys are actually three or four meters tall."
"it is good."
Abigail took the surprise and saw one of the trolls sit down on his companion and hit it on the head with a wooden club.
There was another troll that was banging on the box, glaring at Abigail angrily and grunting, as if it wanted to get out immediately.
She put the box down and took out a bulging purse and handed it to Wade.
"This is the cost of making the puppet. If it's not enough, I'll give you some more." Professor Abigail said sincerely.
Wade took it and almost let go of it because of its heavy weight.
He didn't refuse and stuffed it into his bag: "That's enough. If there are any problems with the puppets later, you can also come to me, Professor."
Abigail would naturally agree.
……
After Wade left, Abigail set an alarm for herself so that she would not forget to cast the shrinking spell on the trolls in time. Then she found that the vampire puppets were still hiding.
She clapped her hands and said, "Come back."
Several puppets jumped back.
Abigail looked at them.
In fact, the characteristics of these are very obvious -
There is no need to say much about the playboy. There is also another one who looks like a white-haired girl. She has a fair complexion and looks very cute and pitiful. Even if she doesn't say a word, her watery eyes can make people fall in love with her at first sight.
The other two are more ordinary in appearance. The one on the left has a very friendly smile, while the one on the right is like a mushroom, always wanting to hide in a dark corner, with a very weak presence.
Abigail wondered inwardly.
She didn't understand how Wade made these puppets seem to have souls, so vivid, and with such different personalities.
In comparison, the puppets imitated by the organization were like mentally retarded people. Some of them fell after every two steps, and some even pointed their cannons at their own bases.
The puppets made by Aslan's magic workshop look very much like real creatures, but after buying a few for comparison, you will find that the behaviors they exhibit are relatively stereotyped, and they are unable to execute complex commands that are beyond their level of understanding.
It's just a more advanced version of wizard chess.
So those puppets are pets, but cannot be used as "soldiers" - the size limitation is only a small part of the reason, the more important thing is that they are missing something.
Something... that makes them more "intelligent".
Only the puppets made by Vader himself are truly unique. They can serve as family members, friends, mentors, and housekeepers, as well as being excellent soldiers.
I heard that among the puppets sold in Aslan's magic workshop, a small portion are made by the inventor himself.
But that damn workshop never revealed which one it was. Instead, it hid it among countless ordinary puppets as an Easter egg, waiting to be bought by some lucky person.
At this moment, Abigail truly understood the leader's orders - compared to Wade Grey, the puppet's skills were completely unimportant.
This young man... this man's brain and his alchemical skills are truly priceless treasures.
Abigail doubted that even if she sent all the mature puppets back to the organization, the alchemists would not be able to replicate them.
She didn't understand why the gap between people could be so big?
……
In fact, Abigail didn't know that Wade made the puppet - or any alchemical item - just like assembling building blocks with an instruction manual. If he made a mistake in any step, there would be an immediate prompt.
Initially, his level of alchemy was limited, one reason being the lack of proficiency, and the other being that Vader could not fully understand the magic tracks and runes he saw with his own eyes, and therefore could not produce them rotely.
But after three years, Wade's foundation in alchemy has become extremely solid, and now he rarely encounters runes that he cannot understand. What is manifested is that his alchemy level has rapidly leaped to a level that ordinary alchemists cannot imagine.
After leaving the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office, Vader returned to the Room of Requirement and unfolded the closet space.
After entering the space, the golden-red firebird immediately flew over, approached Wade, and made a chirping and dissatisfied sound.
"I know you don't want them to leave, but they were ordered by someone else."
Vader touched its head from a distance, and the gentle breeze made Michal squint his eyes slightly.
It cooed again, with a look of grievance in its eyes.
Wade said with understanding: "It's lonely, isn't it? It doesn't matter, it will be lively here again."
Michal accompanied Ved and walked around the closet space.
This place was bustling before, with so many puppets that it was dizzying. Wade himself couldn't figure out how many puppets he had thrown in.
However, those puppets had participated in the battle on the island before, and even the brooms and dustpans had rushed out with great enthusiasm, but they were all turned into dead objects under the influence of the strong magnetic field.
In this situation, you just need to inject thoughts into them again to make them "alive".
But later, the Obscurus wreaked havoc on the island, and the Muggle soldiers threw a lot of bombs to deal with the Obscurus. In the chaos, even reinforced concrete buildings could not survive, let alone the sophisticated puppets?
Afterwards, Wade was sent back to school by Professor Snape. When the Ministry of Magic was cleaning up the battlefield, Professor Flitwick helped Wade pick up some of the puppet remains that could still be seen.
At this point, repair is no longer possible, and the only thing to do is to restore it to basic materials and make a new puppet.
At this point, although the wardrobe space still had buildings and furniture, trees and beaches, and a few magical creatures, it seemed empty.
Wade looked at it and thought of the pumpkin carriage that would happily rush over to take him when he came, the teapot that always sang with steam, the broom that swept every corner clean, and the maid who always took care of the garden, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad.
"It will be fine." He assured Michal: "It won't be long. You will have many friends again, and we can re-plan this space."
Wade had always envied Scamander's suitcase space, so when his wardrobe space was first built, he imitated Scamander, combining various scenery, using meteorological spells to create different climates, and then raising some magical creatures in it.
But later, Vader put most of the magical creatures into the maze, and some were sent back to the Forbidden Forest, replaced by more and more puppets.
Then, he built a place for himself to rest, a place for alchemy and brewing potions, and a place for storage...
Various buildings were filled in, and some unnecessary climate areas were moved to the corners by Wade.
Gradually, the wardrobe space began to look a bit out of place, with mixed and messy functions.
