Chapter 256: Pokémon Potions
Professor Snape was so concerned about the sampling, and the amount collected each time was so large; it was clear he would definitely use potions to preserve these Pokémon magical materials. As a Potion Master, Professor Snape's financial situation must be excellent, so he must now be storing a vast quantity of Pokémon magical materials.
Even if Professor Snape used these magical materials to experiment with new potions, they would certainly not be exhausted in a short time; there would definitely be some surplus, it was only a matter of how much.
Thinking of this, Allen's mind began to stir. If that were the case, could he go to Professor Snape to borrow some Pokémon magical materials?
Of course, this "borrowing" was certainly not borrowing in the normal sense. Given his relationship with Professor Snape, that old bat would definitely ignore him; it seemed he could only go and borrow secretly.
Besides, those magical materials were produced from his own body; taking them back was only natural. Allen quickly completed the mental construction in his heart; instantly, he felt he was being righteous again.
However, speaking of stealing... no... taking things, Allen suddenly discovered that his skill points in this area had inexplicably maxed out.
First, his many Animagus forms could adapt to many unexpected situations, because many magical defense devices guarded against human-shaped wizards, and by transforming into a relatively small Animagus form, he could bypass many magical defenses.
Moreover, his Animagus forms held great advantages in concealment and escape; in this matter, he was certain he could ensure he would not be caught.
Most importantly, he possessed the exclusive secret technique, the Unlocking Charm; theoretically, no magical lock in this world existed that he could not open.
So he began to act. He specifically went to Harry to borrow the Marauder's Map. He had never been very interested in this thing, because when he went out at night to roam, he transformed into an Animagus form, so this thing was of little use to him.
But in this matter, the advantage of the Marauder's Map was revealed.
He had been watching the small dot representing Snape on the Marauder's Map. Upon discovering that Professor Snape had left his office and was heading to the Headmaster's office, he acted quickly.
He brought a small bag he had specially bought. A Vanishing Extension Charm had been solidified inside this small bag, because when he transformed into an Animagus form, his clothes could transform along with him, but the magical artifacts on his body could not; thus, he had customized this small bag specifically for carrying things while in Animagus form.
He flew swiftly to the vicinity of Snape's office, then glanced quickly at the Marauder's Map. The two small dots representing Professor Snape and Professor Dumbledore were right next to each other; it seemed they were discussing matters in the office.
Since that was the case, Allen was not polite. He noticed that the window of Snape's office was not closed, so he quickly transformed into a bat and flew in rapidly.
Professor Snape's office was still shrouded in a heavy scent of potions; a cauldron in the corner of the room was still brewing a potion.
Allen approached a bit closer. The cauldron had no lid. The potion inside the cauldron was unfamiliar to Allen; the potion was bright yellow, and arcs of electricity occasionally appeared within the potion. These arcs gave Allen a very familiar feeling...
In the next moment, he understood. This must be a new potion Professor Snape was researching; it definitely contained hair from Pikachu's tail, which was the cause of the arcs of electricity.
Pokémon magical materials could even be used this way; he wondered what the effects of these potions were? Allen's interest was aroused.
He very much wanted to know what sparks Pokémon magical materials could create with the potion technology of this magical world.
However, he quickly came to his senses; he still remembered what his purpose for coming here was. He quickly began searching around the office.
This cabinet contained finished potions...
This cabinet held ordinary materials...
This cabinet held ordinary magical materials...
He searched around but still could not find where the Pokémon magical materials were placed.
Finally, he found a suspicious box. The box was locked with a magical lock, but this was no trouble for Allen at all. He skillfully opened the magical lock. Inside the box, indeed, were neatly arranged various kinds of Pokémon magical materials.
These Pokémon magical materials were preserved very well; they were carefully classified and placed into individual small bottles. It was clear the owner of the box attached great importance to these magical materials.
Even through the bottles, Allen could feel the power contained within these magical materials.
Looking at these magical materials, the memories of being "sampled" by Professor Snape over this period suddenly flooded his mind again...
That old bat Snape had already plucked so many of his magical materials! Then do not blame me for being impolite. Allen thought resentfully in his heart.
Allen glanced at the Marauder's Map again and discovered that the small dot representing Professor Snape had already started moving, and the direction of movement was toward his office.
Allen knew he had little time left. He began placing the bottles from the box into his small bag.
But when preparing to take a bottle clearly containing hair from Pikachu's tail, Allen hesitated. He looked at the pot of boiling potion in the corner of the office.
He had to admit that Snape's research was very tempting to him. He also hoped that Professor Snape's research in this area would yield results; in that case, he would have one more way to utilize his innate abilities.
Although putting parts of his own body into a potion sounded strange, Professor Snape's kind of research was clearly a behavior very beneficial to him.
So Allen finally decided to leave half of Pikachu's tail hair behind, because he felt that pot of potion needed it very much.
He restored the box to its original state. Then he hurriedly transformed into a bat, bit the small bag with his mouth, and flew out of the window quickly...
Snape's office returned to silence once again.
A moment later, the office door was opened. Professor Snape entered, pushing the door open with a blank expression. As soon as he entered, he walked to the boiling cauldron in the corner of the office and carefully observed the yellow potion inside the pot.
His expression gradually became more relaxed, no longer wearing that cold-faced look; the corners of his mouth also curled up slightly. It seemed the state of the potion in the cauldron put him in a very good mood.
He straightened his body, walked to the desk, and sat relaxedly in the high-backed chair behind the desk. He was thinking about how this potion should be brewed next...
His thinking quickly yielded a result. He looked at the large box in the room, and his face immediately darkened. A sense of ominous foreboding arose in his heart...
He walked quickly toward that box. The more carefully he looked at the box, the more solemn his face became. He took out a key from his person, wanting to open that box. However, the first attempt failed because his hands were trembling slightly. Nevertheless, he still opened the box...
What met his eyes was an empty box; only some yellow hair remained at the bottom of the box...
