Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 161 Mirage Appears
Professor McGonagall did not go far and stopped in front of a door. Lin Xia looked over and saw "Practice Room" written on it.

Professor McGonagall opened the door, and Lin Xia discovered that there was another mystery behind the door. She used a traceless telescopic spell to expand the space, and a large place came into view.

This place is really too big, even bigger than the space on the fourth floor when she first entered.

Lin Xia noticed that there were many doors connected to this space, a bit like the doors seen in Gringotts, opening in various corners.

Doors were opened constantly, wizards came in from other places, and some people opened doors and went to other places.

She turned to look at the door they came in. There were a few words written in the center of the door -

【Hogwarts Office】

Professor McGonagall was well prepared and took her forward, opening another door, and then another...

Lin Xia walked through five doors before arriving at the final destination. This was an open place with green tones, chairs for people to rest, and refreshments for people to eat and drink.

And in front, there is another door.

Professor McGonagall glanced at her appreciatively: "Lin Xia, you are very smart. You are one of the smartest students I have ever seen. It takes no effort to communicate with you."

It's just that this door is different from all the doors I've seen before. It looks more ordinary, simple gray, and without any explanation.

"You are right. After you leave the other world, your memory in this regard will be erased accordingly. This is not an artificial erasure. You can think of it as part of the rules.

People who have not been approved by the will of the wizarding world cannot enter this world. Even if they enter by chance, the relevant memories will disappear after leaving.

Lin Xia looked around. There were only two people in this space, she and Professor McGonagall, and no one else.

Lin Xia took advantage of this and asked again: "Professor McGonagall, can I know what the conditions are for entering the other world?"

Professor McGonagall shook her head and refused in a rare move.

She subconsciously believed that not all wizards could know the other world.

If you want to enter the other world, you must first obtain the recognition of the will of the wizarding world, and if you want to obtain the recognition of the will of the world, you must do something helpful to the wizarding world. "

Lin Xia's eyes flashed slightly.

She pushed open the gray door and walked in alone.

In fact, what she wants to ask more is, what is the difference between the inner world and the outside world? Why does it need to be approved by the will of the wizarding world to enter? What secrets are hidden in it? Why is it said to be absolutely safe?

Lin Xia noticed the meaning of Professor McGonagall's words. After thinking for a while, she slowly asked: "Professor, will this part of my memory be erased after I leave the other world?"

Even at this time, the professor did not say it directly, but said euphemistically: "You are doing well now, continue to do research and publish papers."

But she knew that Professor McGonagall would definitely not give her answers to these questions.

In this case, let’s ask the simplest question.

Lin Xia couldn't help but ask: "Professor, can you explain to me what the situation is now?"

Professor McGonagall glanced at Lin Xia, "Although you will forget this part of your memory after you go out, you are an outstanding student at Hogwarts and will be exposed to it sooner or later. It's okay to tell you now.

But don't worry, this is just memory erasure, and all the gains you made will be retained. "

Professor McGonagall added: "Even Cedric has never entered the other world. The other world is safe enough. There are no aliens here, and no one else will disturb us."

She said: "Lin Xia, you shouldn't have been exposed to this other world when you were studying at Hogwarts, but because you are an outstanding first-year student with outstanding talents and different talents in transfiguration, I Apply for you to summon shape-shifting magical creatures in the other world."

The spatial layout inside the door is very simple. There are no decorations or furniture. It is empty, except for one thing that is not simple.

Lin Xia felt an extremely huge and surging magic power!

The pupils in her eyes shrank slightly. This magic power was much greater than what she felt at Hogwarts. It was already comparable to the magic power in the golden wooden house!
At the same time, she not only felt the magic, but also felt something mysterious. She couldn't tell what it was, but she could feel it mixed in the magic, and then wrapped around her with the magic.

Lin Xia immediately had the urge to practice here!

She had a hunch that if she could run "Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record·Melting Furnace" here, her body would undergo some changes, and she should become more harmonious and comfortable than before.

But she thought of Professor McGonagall waiting outside the door, and that this was the inner world of Hogwarts, which was concerned by the will of the wizarding world, so she did not act rashly.

She silently ran the "Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record·The Furnace", minimizing all the body's reactions during practice, silently absorbing the magic power of this training room, and then began to mobilize the transformation technique in her body.

Originally she was still wondering, if there were no items here, how to use the transformation spell?
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to use the transformation technique, a huge boulder appeared out of thin air in the room. Lin Xia understood that this was following the golden wooden house's "whatever you want" model.

Lin Xia accepted it well and immediately began to deform the stone.

When other people deform, they deform into bigger and bigger shapes, but Lin Xia is different, they deform into smaller and smaller shapes.

Time passed by minute by second. Lin Xia was immersed in the transformation and did not notice the passage of time.

When she came to her senses, the boulder had turned into an insect the size of a grain of rice.

The cloud bug was called a mirage by her. Its structure was very simple, at least as seen in the picture. As for the inner structure, Lin Xia couldn't simulate it. That is a magical creature, not an ordinary animal. No magical creature can be killed at will.

It is said that in the past, the wizarding world wanted to obtain more powerful power from magical creatures, so they often hunted magical creatures, resulting in the extinction of many magical species.

Finally, in order to protect magical creatures, the wizarding world introduced a rule that they cannot be killed.

Of course, the secret hunting is definitely still going on, but on the surface, not many people dare to violate this regulation.

Once discovered, it would be the fate of being imprisoned in Azkaban.

The mirage was successfully simulated, and Lin Xia felt that this practice room was special.

Because the power of the mirage was very weak, even after being simulated, Lin Xia did not feel any feedback in terms of power.

She looked at the mirage for a long time, and suddenly felt that something was missing.

Lin Xia thought for a while, and then used the transformation technique to transform into pieces of misty clouds, covering the mirage's figure.

In this way, she felt much more pleasing to the eye.

A feeling suddenly arose in my heart. The mirage must be combined with the cloud to be complete. Both are indispensable.

Lin Xia adjusted it a few more times. In the practice room, her mind and spirit were highly concentrated. Unknowingly, Mirage and Yunwu were adjusted many times.

It wasn't until a thought of "Okay, that's enough" came to Lin Xia's mind that she gave up on adjusting, wrapped the mirage and the mist in her hands, opened the door and walked out.

Professor McGonagall sat in a chair and waited, without drinking a sip of tea or touching any refreshments.

Mag was a little surprised when he saw her coming out.

"Have you transformed yet?"

Lin Xia nodded and said, "Yes."

She opened her palm, revealing a small cloud. The mirage was hidden inside, and not even Professor McGonagall could find it.

Mag asked again: "Are you sure no adjustments are needed?"

Lin Xia shook her head, "No need, my heart tells me this is enough. By the way, professor, can I ask how long it took me to transform?"

She felt that the first time she transformed into a magical creature was quite time-consuming, at least five or six hours.

However, Professor McGonagall said: "You only took 5 minutes."

Lin Xia couldn't help but be startled, "Five minutes?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Professor McGonagall's mouth, "Lin Xia, don't use common sense to treat anything in the other world, including the practice room here. Here, your thinking will be infinitely extended and very active, resulting in elongation your sense of time.”

"Okay, now we should go out, even I can't stay here for too long."

Lin Xia closed her palms again and wrapped the mirage in her palms.

She still remembered what Professor McGonagall said, no one would be allowed to enter the other world without permission.

Even if you enter by chance, you will forget the relevant memories after you go out, but in addition to the harvest, the harvest will still exist.

You have to go through a lot of doors when you come in, but it's not that complicated when you go out.

Lin Xia followed McGonagall and walked two doors to a door marked "Hogwarts Office". They opened the door and walked in together.

There was nothing strange, and there was no feeling of spinning around. Lin Xia stepped out of the door with both feet. She looked up and was surprised to find that she had arrived at the grocery store.

Lin Xia was a little confused, "Professor, weren't we in your office just now?"

Professor McGonagall looked at Lin Xia carefully to make sure there was no problem. At this time, the handsome portrait in the grocery store also spoke:

"no problem."

Professor McGonagall said: "Yes, we were in the office just now, and I took you to a place halfway through. You forgot about things related to your place."

She paused for a moment, then a smile appeared on her serious face: "But fortunately, the result is good, Lin Xia, look at your hands, your first transformation into a magical creature was successful."

Lin Xia was reminded by her and noticed what was in her palm.

This is... a mirage!
After bidding farewell to Professor McGonagall, Lin Xia hurriedly returned to the golden wooden house.

Sitting in the wooden house, she thought about it again and again, but she didn't realize what was missing in her memory. She went from the office to the grocery store seamlessly.

But what happened in the middle, she didn't know, it was completely erased.

Lin Xia lowered his head to look at the mirage in his hand, and with a slight thought, he summoned the Scale of Destiny.
