At the Institute of Magic, Murphy arranged for Patrick and other patients, and after lifting the coma spell on several members of the Muggle security team who were not particularly ill, Murphy heard the general story of what happened.

Late last night, more than thirty fully transformed werewolves suddenly appeared next to Patrick's lakeside villa.

They were driven by a particularly tall werewolf to attack the villa. The members of the security team put up fierce resistance. However, the werewolf's fur has extremely strong defense and excellent healing ability, making it difficult for Muggle firearms to kill them. die.

Their speed and strength far exceeded that of ordinary humans. Coupled with the panic and confusion of suddenly facing such monsters, the Muggle security team immediately fell into a bitter battle.

Almost instantly, they lost three of their companions, and then werewolves broke into the villa and started killing.

They bit almost everyone. In the process, several members of the security team were killed, and the rest were seriously injured.

Patrick tried to hide Audrey and Ares, but failed. The particularly tall werewolf with keen hearing discovered Audrey and Ares hidden in the cupboard, and he injured Audrey. Rei, took little Ares away before the Muggle police arrived.

It was Greyback's evil interest to take human children and transform them into werewolves.

But as a Muggle child, Ares's chances of surviving after being bitten were extremely slim.

He must be found immediately.

Murphy called Rita Skeeter.

"Immediately post some news, be sure to be eye-catching. There is a reward for the location of the werewolf. The reward for providing the precise location is 10,000 Galleons. Those who can provide clues will also be rewarded with 2,000 Galleons. If there is any information, ask them to call me. Also, contact Wizard Radio, contact all the channels you know, pay for all their advertising space, and post this bounty immediately."

Most of the werewolves had no fixed abodes, and the group following Greyback were basically homeless. Even the few captured werewolves didn't know where they would appear tomorrow.

Spells such as "Show Me the Way" seemed difficult to work on distant targets, so Murphy had to use this method to find their location.

Murphy then called the medical team, deformation research team and werewolf treatment team to jointly study the treatment of Patrick and others.

"For ordinary werewolf bites, it can be cured normally by cutting off the magically infected area, or by using a powerful wound cleaner plus a 'cleansing spell' (anti-thief waterfall) to wash away the magic in the wound."

"We used this method to treat store clerks who were bitten by untransformed werewolves. Mrs. Audrey was only scratched and was not exposed to the werewolf's poisonous saliva. She should be treated this way."

Elodie has been at the Magic Research Institute for a few months and has already adapted to the life here. Even her way of speaking is similar to that of the researchers.

"Well, what about those who were bitten? Is there a plan?"

Elodie looked at Andrew, who said: "Yes, we have an idea, but it is very difficult to implement."

"Tell me."

"First, let me introduce lycanthropy."

"When we studied werewolf disease, we discovered that it is different from vampires with many flaws. In fact, it is further and more perfect on the road to higher Magus. Its flaw is that the Animagus potion causes the mutation. There are two reasons, one is the wolf, and the other is the rabies virus that changes the mental state of the wolf."

"So the transformation of a werewolf is actually two processes, one is the transformation process of the wolf-type Animagus, and the other is the infection process of the magical rabies virus. Viral infection is the way in which werewolf disease is transmitted."

"If it is the early stage of infection, chemical methods or T cell therapy can inhibit the replication of the virus, thus achieving a certain therapeutic effect."

"But the infection rate of magic rabies virus is much faster than that of ordinary rabies virus. When we examined the cerebrospinal fluid of these patients through lumbar puncture, we have found signs of the presence of magic rabies virus."

"Ordinary drugs and T-cell therapy are powerless against viruses in nerve cells. Although we can still increase nerve strength through smart agents and delay disease by inhibiting viral replication with wolfsbane agents, we cannot eliminate the virus."

"So once it reaches this stage, lycanthropy is basically difficult to cure."

"So we thought we might be able to survive by allowing them to successfully transform into werewolves."

"This is difficult. Most Muggles who are bitten by werewolves will not survive. The probability of success is less than 6%."

Andrew said, "Our preliminary guess is that this is because a large amount of energy is absorbed during the transformation process. Wizards can support this process by paying magic power, but Muggles do not have magic power in their bodies, so their life force and other things will be consumed."

"The manifestation is multiple organ failure. This process will be very fast. Generally, Muggles will not survive for three days, but Mr. Patrick may only have a few hours."

"However, there are also werewolves transformed from Muggles," Andrew said. "The secret of their survival lies in their magic power."

"After the magical rabies virus invades the brain, Muggles begin to produce magic power due to a mechanism that we still don't understand. We have also detected this phenomenon through the magic tester."

"The magic power born from the virus supports the transformation process. This requires both processes to be very balanced. If the transformation process is too fast and the magic power that the magical rabies virus can guide is insufficient, organ failure will occur. And if the virus infects too quickly, the human body will It will be killed by the virus before the transformation is completed."

"So even if we can suppress the virus with wolfsbane potion, we can't do that because it will reduce the supply of magic power in Patrick's body, thus accelerating organ failure."

"Only by finding a way to replenish their magic power can they complete the transformation and escape danger."

"Replenishing magic power? Can this be done?" Murphy asked.

Andrew glanced at Haldane next to him, who nodded and said: "We have developed an injectable magic potion. In fact, it is just the wizard's serum mixed with some ingredients that can maintain magic power."

"However, since everyone's magic power is different, this magic potion can only be used by yourself. Injecting magic potions made from other people's serum may cause magic power disorder, which is very dangerous."

Murphy glanced at Andrew again, "Do you have a solution to this problem?"

Andrew nodded, "This is actually a problem of giving magic a specific 'breath'. We have already encountered this problem."

Murphy understood immediately, "Animagus potion?"

"Yes, if we treat wizards as an animal, target them in constructing a potion, and add the 'aura' characteristics of Muggles extracted through polyjuice potion in the middle, we can create a potion that possesses that specific Muggle." A magic potion with the characteristics of breath."

"Didn't you just think of this idea today?" Murphy asked.

"Yes, Director, this is one of our sub-topics - one of the research results on the transformation of Muggles into wizards."

After Andrew finished speaking, he looked at Murphy with some anxiety, "If you feel that this subject is not suitable for further advancement, we will stop it right now."
