Overall, Harry's kidnapping of Lucius Malfoy went quite smoothly.

Using Silencing Barrier and Elementalization, along with a touch of threat and enticement, Harry successfully tricked Lucius Malfoy into trying to escape the study, only to be caught red-handed by the Petrifying Gaze.

To prevent the portrait on the wall from seeing his face, Harry once again pulled out a highly effective Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder.

With this, along with the Hand of Glory holding a candle, Harry could ensure that he could clearly see everything around him in the mist, but he couldn't see himself in the picture frames inside the room. Then, he easily used the Obscurus in conjunction with the water elemental markings he had made beforehand to pull all the portraits over.

After that, naturally, while the smoke was still lingering, he used Lucius's wand to cast a Shrinking Charm on himself, removing his clothes, and then used a strand of Lucius's hair in combination with Polyjuice Potion to transform into his likeness. Finally, he swaggered away from the Malfoy Manor.

He used this method to carry out the kidnapping because it would allow him to buy more time.

Lucius Malfoy is, after all, a living, breathing human being. The degree to which his sudden disappearance from the study and his voluntary departure from the manor due to some business are completely different and would arouse much suspicion.

Anyway, Harry had amassed so many of Lucius's usual items that if he could simply imitate Lucius's handwriting to write a few letters, and then use Polyjuice Potion to disguise himself as Lucius and wander around, he could easily Confundus Charm the others and greatly delay their search for Lucius Malfoy.

Who would have thought that someone would dare to break into the Malfoy Manor and kidnap the manor's master?

Suspicion fell on Dobby, the former House-elf, and then on Harry?

That's certainly possible, but these short-sighted guys who House-elf the power of Pokémon would never think of that in a short time.

By the time they finally understand this, Lucius Malfoy will probably have been driven to his death by his own actions.

Harry rushed back to Hogwarts without stopping, without seeing anyone in between, and went straight to the alchemy laboratory that had been specially granted to him.

Now, in a corner of the laboratory, there is a black, unassuming safe. Harry used his wand to tap the lid a few times, and the lid opened up, revealing the hidden interior space.

This place was a secret laboratory that Harry had prepared in advance. It was originally a Magical Combination Chest given to Harry by Nicolas Flamel. Not only was it enchanted with Undetectable Extension Charm, but it also had several independent compartments.

Moreover, compared to Harry's original briefcase, this Magical Combination Chest, although bulkier, offers superior security.

Each compartment within it requires a separate password to open, and only Harry's wand can be used to enter the password; it is virtually impossible for anyone else to open it without resorting to violence.

It's safe to say that this is absolutely the most suitable prop to be used as a laboratory.

Before kidnapping Lucius Malfoy, Harry had already basically transformed one of the compartments into a laboratory, though it was still quite rudimentary, with only a few dissection tables and some common equipment.

He will gradually add some professional equipment later, but that may take some time.

Hogwarts doesn't have electricity, so Harry would probably have to make some of the special equipment he needed, such as the centrifuge used to separate serum, through alchemy.

After entering the laboratory, Harry first changed himself into a surgical gown, then dressed the petrified Lucius Malfoy in a hospital gown, and then fixed him directly to the dissection table in a spread-eagle position.

The dissection tables here are also specially made. When a 'subject' lies on one of them, six arc-shaped locks of different sizes will pop out simultaneously to firmly fix the subject's limbs, neck, and waist, ensuring that he/she cannot make any kind of struggle.

After everything was prepared, Harry put on medical gloves and gave Lucius the Mandrake Restorative Draught.

The following scene might be a little disturbing, but after all the disgusting things Lucius has done, Harry should at least collect some interest from him, right?

"Ugh... Where am I? What happened? Let me go!"

The resurrection potion worked very well, Lucius quickly regained consciousness. He then found himself seemingly bound and began to struggle in shock and anger.

"Where am I? Who brought me here? Let me go right now, do you hear me?!"

"This is Hogwarts, and as for who brought you here... it was me." Harry approached Lucius and calmly removed his mask.

"Harry Potter?! It's you?!" Lucius stared at Harry in disbelief, then quickly adopted a condescending and threatening expression. "Do you know what you're doing? Release me right now! You believe I can report you to the Ministry of Magic right now, and not only will you be expelled from school, but the entire Hogwarts will be shut down!!"

"It seems the Malfoy family head is indeed used to being bossy and has completely failed to grasp the current situation." Harry shook his head seemingly helplessly, but a cold smile flashed across his face. "I was able to kidnap you from the manor without anyone noticing, do you think... you can still escape?!"

"What did you say?!" At that moment, Lucius Malfoy was shocked, as if he suddenly understood something.

It turns out that the one who had been secretly plotting against him all along was Harry Potter!

He had previously impersonated Peter Pettigrew, met him at a small bar, and then lured the Auror to capture him!

But... how is that possible?

He's a third-grade student...

"Ugh!" Before Lucius could recover from his shock, Harry shoved a mouth opener commonly used by dentists directly into his mouth.

"I know Peter Pettigrew Peter must have contacted you and told you that Uncle Lupin is Werewolf ...but unfortunately, you were a step too late," Harry said calmly. "Lucius ...do you know what I'm going to do to you now?"

"What... what are you going to do to me?" Lucius asked in a daze, his words muffled.

"Of course, it's to let you experience what it's like to become Werewolf. However... if you really become Werewolf, your aggression will increase drastically. So for safety reasons, I need to take care of your teeth and nails, starting with... your teeth!"

As they were talking, Harry suddenly grabbed the tooth-pulling forceps next to him and ruthlessly pulled out one of Lucius's front teeth!

"Ugh!!" Lucius had been pampered since childhood, had never suffered such torment. He couldn't help but let out a scream, and blood instantly streamed from his mouth.

"It's just one tooth, why are you howling like this?" Harry looked at Lucius, who was struggling and screaming, with amusement. "I won't let you bite people indiscriminately after you become Werewolf, so... you'd better get all those teeth cleaned up."

He picked up the pliers again, accurately located Lucius's other tooth, and then snapped it open with force!

Click!

Another front tooth came out, along with a broken root, and Lucius's mouth was now a bloody mess.

"Oh dear, the bleeding is quite heavy."

Seeing the other person's blood gushing out like it was free, Harry waved his hand and used a water balloon to wash it away, then flicked some Dittany cinnamon powder onto the wound, and then...

It's the third one!

Chapter 377 Werewolf Experiment Subjects Will Come to You of Their Own Will

That said, whether it 'Dumbledore Lucius Malfoy... these figures in the Wizarding World, whether good or bad, have always underestimated Harry.

Of course, they weren't underestimating Harry's talent or ability, but rather what crazy things he was capable of doing when Harry decided to temporarily abandon his principles!

Inside the secret laboratory, made of Magical Combination Chest, screams and curses filled the air, but no matter how much Lucius struggled, Harry showed no mercy.

The first step is tooth extraction. No anesthesia is needed, and there's no need for any prior gum incision; it's just pulled out directly.

Lucius was now completely strapped to the dissection table, even his lips were held open with a mouth gag, so there was no way for him to escape.

In the end, Harry pulled out all thirty-two teeth from Lucius's mouth, including his wisdom teeth, leaving not a single one!

Lucius Malfoy, who had initially been hysterically cursing, had now deteriorated to the point where he could only weakly moan in a hoarse voice, pleading with Harry to let him go.

"Uh... please, let me go... I beg you..." He looked at Harry with difficulty, his pupils dull and unfocused, his pained face filled with pleading and fear.

Seeing this, Harry suddenly understood something that had been bothering him for a long time.

"You know, after we made this plan, I actually felt for a long time that torturing someone who has no ability to resist like this was a despicable thing."

Harry and Lucius looked at each other, then Harry shook his head slightly. "But after seeing you like that, I don't think so anymore. I only pulled out a mouthful of your teeth, and you're already begging for mercy. A spineless coward like you who only knows how to scheme and plot, I really can't be bothered to show you any sympathy!"

"Let me go! Please, let me go..." Seemingly sensing the murderous intent in Harry's words, Lucius's pleading became even more urgent. "If you'll let me go... I'll agree to anything, I'll give you everything I have... Please, let me go..."

"Hey, you look really bad, and you're making me feel really bored." Harry shook his head again, but then suddenly laughed with amusement. "Lucius Malfoy, you know... your son is in this school now, and you're suffering right next to him, isn't that ironic?"

"Draco... No... Please, please don't go looking for trouble with Draco! If you... if you dare hurt him, I'll... Waaaaa!!!"

Before he could finish speaking, Lucius let out another scream, completely catching him off guard.

At the same time, his right little finger had also disappeared.

"That's more like it. If you don't scream with more energy, all I've done will be for nothing." Harry nodded in satisfaction. "As I said, I'm going to turn you into a Werewolf. And the threat of Werewolf, besides their teeth, also includes their claws. To prevent you from growing claws, I'll give your nails a good trim."

"Massage...? No...please, no!" Upon hearing Harry's words, Lucius's already completely cloudy eyes suddenly narrowed.

The sharp pain he had just experienced told him that Harry's so-called 'manicure' definitely didn't mean anything by its literal meaning!

"Ugh!!"

Sure enough, another excruciating pain struck; this time, he lost the ring finger of his right hand.

The pain in his fingers was excruciating, and the two consecutive excruciating blows drove Lucius almost insane, yet he was unable to move and could only let Harry continue to torture him.

"Let me say something people often say to me... I'm actually doing this for your own good," Harry said calmly, pressing down on Lucius's right middle finger. "The pain of cutting off a finger is extraordinary. If you scream like that, you'll easily bite your tongue. That's why I decided to pull all your teeth first."

Click!

As he spoke, his third finger snapped off, and Lucius could only convulse in agony, too weak to even groan.

"Lucius Malfoy... you bastard, when you plotted and schemed time and time again, even casting a curse on my father, did you ever imagine this day would come?!"

Unable to contain his rage, Harry roared, but his hands didn't stop moving at all, severing all ten of Lucius's fingers!

There's a piece of advice I want to share:... never mess with someone who studies medicine!

After this ordeal, Harry pulled out all of Lucius's teeth, cut off all ten of his fingers, and finally smashed both of his knees and lumbar vertebrae... Even so, he did not go into shock due to blood loss or pain, and remained fully conscious throughout.

As a result, Lucius was completely gripped by the stress of pain. His gaze toward Harry was filled with fear, and if Harry even raised his hand, Lucius would reflexively lose control of his bladder on the spot.

"Phew... that's about it. It's just a pity that today isn't a full moon, so the subsequent experiments will have to be conducted later."

After torturing Lucius beyond recognition, Harry suddenly realized an embarrassing situation... it wasn't a full moon, and he didn't have the Feral Wolf Virus on hand.

If I had known, I should have collected some of Lupin's saliva after his transformation a few days ago during the full moon celebration.

It's only early February now, so Harry will have to wait many more days if he wants to continue his experiments.

Unfortunately, he had no choice but to give up for the time being.

Harry stuffed Lucius's mouth with white cotton balls, bandaged his ten fingers, and cleaned up the mess. After doing all this, Harry flicked his hand and knocked Lucius Stupefy on the dissection table.

As Harry left the laboratory, he began to ponder the question of the next full moon.

Back at the Malfoy Manor, he discovered that Lucius Malfoy was also involved with Werewolf and had even made contact with Fenrir Greyback, who had bitten Lupin. This gave Harry the idea to use a counter-strategy.

Lucius Malfoy wrote a letter in which he hoped Greyback would come to Hogwarts to hunt on the night of the next full moon.

In the letter, he also promised to provide Greyback with Polyjuice Potion, allowing him to appear as Lupin, and permitting him to attack any Hogwarts student except Slytherin after transforming!

Pshaw, a vicious but utterly unoriginal trick, and it's basically a copy of my own.

He had Sirius impersonate Lupin, Lucius had Greyback impersonate Lupin instead. He wasn't willing to add any creativity at all, and deserved to be used by him.

Harry happened to be looking for the Werewolf who had ruined Lupin's life, so let's just go along with it.

From what Harry knew, Greyback was a completely inhuman and evil Werewolf who constantly plotted to tear others apart and turn them into Werewolf.

If he received an invitation from Lucius, he would definitely come to Hogwarts wagging his tail.

If I just lay a trap at Hogwarts beforehand, wouldn't getting those Werewolf test subjects be a piece of cake?

Chapter 378 The land for the Shrieking Shack is very suitable.

After dealing with Lucius, Harry naturally felt much more at ease. At least for the time being, he didn't have to worry about that guy instructing the Ministry of Magic to sabotage him behind his back.

Actually, there's a simple principle that Albus Dumbledore has never understood: to catch the thief, first catch the king.

If you've ever played a real-time strategy game called Age of Empires, you'll know that there's a game mode called Regicide Mode.

Both sides deploy their forces and engage in fierce battles, but no matter how advanced their technology or how many high-level units they produce, the game ends when one side's king is killed.

So, what method should be used to achieve victory as quickly as possible?

Is it a matter of risking mutual destruction to completely annihilate the other side's power?

Or should we launch a surprise attack on the castle and kill the enemy's 'king,' whose fighting strength is even weaker than a peasant's?

The result is obvious.

Lucius Malfoy, that was the king.

Although the power he built was enormous, and he had tied the interests of the Pure-blood Family and politicians in the Ministry of Magic together, he himself was the weakest link in this network. If they didn't attack him first, who else could they attack?

Now that Lucius Malfoy has been secretly imprisoned by Harry, the Pure-blood Family and politicians who were originally led by him will inevitably have to go through a process of reorganizing their power... and this process is the best time for Harry to make his plans and develop.

During this time, besides focusing on researching the cure for Feral Wolf Syndrome, he also needed to resolve some of his own side's 'historical issues'.

The first one to be affected was Greengrass's ghost. Although Harry successfully petrified it, he still had a lingering worry about who ordered it to come and monitor him.

In addition, there is the search for Rowena Ravenclaw's spirit. Although Lady Grey is not in a great hurry about this, her "chance encounters" with Harry have obviously increased since they talked about it.

So, in order to help Harry find this spirit whose existence is uncertain, the entire Werewolf Kill Detective Agency has been mobilized.

Colin and Will often cornered Professor Binns the Ghost, bombarding him with questions, and Astoria Greengrass frequently joined in to help; Hermione was constantly running to the library, practically rummaging through every single ancient book with its pages falling apart; and Luna Lovegood had been wearing the Ravenclaw's Diadem lately, hoping to gain some inspiration from this Ravenclaw heirloom.
