Genius in a Second to Remember, providing you with exciting reading.
According to the information he received from Hagrid, Elwyn directed Buckbeak to fly deeper into the swamp.
They flew in the white fog, paying close attention to the ground.
Although the water and grass here were delicious, the creatures that lived in the forest rarely came here.
There were many places in this swamp that were bottomless and very dangerous.
It looked no different from ordinary ground, but if one accidentally fell into it, they could only struggle in despair and wait for death.
Only an experienced explorer like Hagrid could find a path through the depths of the swamp after years of searching.
Although the animals in the forest rarely came close, this did not mean that there were no other creatures in the swamp.
In fact, it was the opposite. Without the invasion of the forest species, the unique environment of the swamp gave birth to many special life forms that were rarely seen in the outside world.
They interacted with each other and formed a complete ecosystem.
During the journey, Elwyn saw patches and patches of mandrake grass.
Mandrake grass, also known as mandrake root, was a powerful restorative.
It was used to restore people who had been transformed or cursed to their original state. It was also an important part of most antidotes.
A few days ago, during Professor Sprout's herbology class, Elwyn had changed the pot of a mandrake grass seedling.
Near the mandrake grass, he also saw dozens of magical animals that looked like pieces of wood.
They have claws, fins on their claws, and very sharp teeth. They glide in the swamp.
These magical animals were swamp diggers, mainly feeding on small mammals and plants.
They could cause serious damage to the ankles of passersby, but their favorite food was the mandrake root.
The root of the Mandela grass was the image of an ugly baby that could make an ear-piercing cry. The swamp diggers fed on these roots. When they finished eating and pulled out the Mandela grass, they would see a bloody, tangled mess.
The mandrake root had been eaten by the swamp diggers until it was unrecognizable, and it could no longer let out a cry.
Other than the swamp diggers, Elwyn also saw two Hinkpunks.
They hid in puddles on the side of the road, and only the lanterns hanging from their front feet shone faintly.
In this swamp that was always filled with fog, this kind of light could attract travelers or passing animals to follow.
Hinkpunk would give them false directions and lead them into bottomless swamps or puddles.
After the travelers die, they feed on their rotting corpses.
Moving forward, Elwyn saw a creature that looked like a magnified firefly next to a large patch of reeds.
Its tail glowed with a misty red or yellow light and had sharp spikes.
It floats silently a few feet above the water, catching plankton.
However, before it could fly far, a large fish covered in green scales and sharp fangs leaped out and ate it.
In addition, there were a few round gray worms crawling slowly in a swamp full of mushrooms and fungi.
This creature had a huge mouth and was constantly devouring the mushrooms in front of it.
On the back of its body, there was also a hole that was overflowing with green mucus.
Elwyn and the others seemed to have entered a new magical world, and the scenery they saw was completely different from what they were used to.
"The ancient ruins you were talking about are here?" Keresis said with a frown.
"This is where Hagrid met the manticore manticore. We still have to go a bit further east." Elwyn replied.
"I'm definitely crazy to follow you to a place like this. We also have to be careful of the manticore manticore that can appear at any time. That's definitely more trouble than you can imagine!" Keresis said, "Moreover, I doubt that the ruins you're talking about will have any exploration value. I've seen too many ancient buildings like this, and there's nothing inside except broken stones."
As the place where the Evil God statue was first discovered, even if there were only broken stones left, it was still worth Elwyn exploring.
"I know what I'm doing, you just have to act according to the plan we've set before. I've asked Hagrid about the manticore manticore's habits. As long as there are no accidents, there won't be any problems."
"Let me say this first. Even if your plan and trap work, I can only control that guy for an hour. You have to hurry!" Keresis gloomily stared at Elwyn, "If it doesn't come out in an hour, I won't go in and save you."
"I know!" Elwyn nodded and said, "I'll pay attention to the time."
After coming into contact with dangerous magical animals for a long time, the Magi had come up with a set of effective methods to control them.
For example, using Stun Curses, special potions and herbs, and catching traps.
Just like the manticore manticore they were about to face, this monster's skin was immune to most magic runes, and it had a very strong attack power. It was very dangerous, and it would be very difficult to defeat it head-on.
Elwyn wasn't sure if Keresis could do it, but it would definitely cost him a lot.
Fortunately, they weren't here to defeat the manticore manticore.
As long as they could trap this guy for a period of time, it would be enough for Elwyn to complete his exploration of the ruins.
After looking up the relevant information, Elwyn chose a trap that met his requirements.
He asked Sirius to help him get this trap and send it to Moody's office. This was a magic item that specialized in dealing with dangerous magical animals.
As long as it was triggered, it could quickly stretch out several chains to entangle the magical animal that had fallen into the trap.
Under the control of a Magus, the chains were very difficult to break free from, and the duration was related to the Magus controlling the trap.
With Keresis's strength, it was more than enough to control the manticore manticore for an hour.
Of course, he was very dissatisfied with Elwyn's request, but there was nothing he could do.
The current situation was that no matter what request Elwyn made, Keresis had to try his best to satisfy it.
Moreover, this task wasn't dangerous at all. All Keresis needed to do was to use some of his magic.
In the past few years, Hagrid had been providing food to the manticore manticore that lived in the swamp from time to time.
Elwyn learned from Hagrid that the manticore manticore's favorite food was the Dwarf Pig Monster's meat.
The Dwarf Pig Monster was a magical animal that lived in rural areas in Europe, Russia and America.
It looked like a stunted piglet, with long legs, a stubby tail and squinting black eyes.
It would often sneak into the pigsty, eat the sow's milk with the piglets, and wreak havoc.
If it wasn't noticed for a long time, the Dwarf Pig Monster would grow bigger.
The longer it stayed, the bigger it grew, and the more damage it would cause to the farm it entered.
Elwyn also asked Sirius to get him a lot of Dwarf Pig Monster meat and sent it along with the trap to Moody's office.
