Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 217 Improving the Guardian Talisman, Professor Babuling’s Expectations, and Mrs. Norris’s Discovery

Lin Xia thought for a while and felt that there was no need to hide from them about the strange things that happened in Hogwarts recently.

Draco, Hermione, Harry and Ron are the most outstanding little wizards in their grade.

She believed that in this situation, they would make the right decision.

It's not a bad thing to reveal some not-so-secret information to them in advance.

After listening to Lin Xia's analysis, Hermione was the first to respond.

"I agree with your idea, so let's go all out to make the guardian talisman. Although the last ghost vision did not happen again, I always have an intuition that this vision will not be the last."

Draco hesitated, "Originally, the project we were specializing in was [Magic Talisman Gathering]. Seeing that only part of the problem was left, we could research [Magic Talisman Gathering]. Now that we have stopped suddenly, I feel a bit regretful."

On a rare occasion, Ron was able to say a few words.

"No, I don't think so. The remaining part of the problem will take a very long time. I don't think it can be solved within at least two months.

But Draco searched for a long time and couldn't find any relevant knowledge.

Lin Xia discovered.

At least the professors from the four major colleges knew that she had been invited by the Alchemist Association to become an alchemist apprentice.

This is considered one of the benefits given to her as an outstanding student.

Therefore, she was issued an outstanding student badge in advance and enjoyed the rights of an outstanding student first, and then she was notified of being an outstanding student at the end of the semester.

Not to mention that the guardian talismans she refined later were all dumped through Hogwarts' on-campus channels.

Draco was convinced: "Okay, let's start tonight?"

She also used guardian talismans to deepen her understanding of alchemy and gained a lot of points that could be exchanged for knowledge.

Ron's obsession with runes and alchemy these days has almost reached the point where he forgets to eat and sleep.

So even the school had to break the rules for her.

As an alchemy apprentice who started in the last school year, Lin Xia refined the most protective talismans.

It has become safer and more stylish, while also having many leisure functions.

In school, she always wore an honors student badge, and she never hid the secret key she received from the Alchemist Guild.

Because there are so many fun things, Ron and Harry both like to run in the laboratory, and the Gryffindor common room is no longer their first choice.

Draco and Hermione both applied to the school to open alchemy knowledge to them through the [Subsidy Application] section of the Excellent Student Key.

He didn't study as hard as Ron, but he was led by Ron and he also learned a lot of relevant knowledge.

Under the guidance of Lin Xia.

It can be seen from this that the Hogwarts school must have grasped some of her current situation, so they deliberately chose to open this part of their knowledge to her.

Lin Xia nodded and said: "I will improve the enhanced version of the guardian talisman tonight. I think the current guardian talisman is not very powerful."

She specifically asked Draco if he could find this part of the information.

We need to find materials suitable for depicting the condensed magic text, and at the same time, we have to find a perfect fusion plan. We also have to adjust the strength of the condensed magic text, and test how much effect it can still exert after compression..."

Harry was the one who felt the changes in Ron the most.

They have initially determined the enhanced material for the guardian talisman.

What he said plausibly was enough to show how hard he had worked on studying magic texts and alchemy this month.

Maybe it's because he has a unique understanding of magic texts, and he can always understand the meaning of the book faster than Ron.

The school plans to announce the list of outstanding students at the end of this school year.

Harry agreed with Ron's point of view, "If you want to research the [Condensation Talisman], it will never be so fast, but you can't tell when the phenomenon in Hogwarts will appear again, so it's better to refine a batch of enhanced versions first." Guardian Talisman.”

Although Hermione is a researcher of [Natural Wand], she is not the main researcher, and the overall value is not as shocking as Lin Xia's.

Although it seems to be just a question: how to compress condensed magic text on alchemical items, in fact this problem involves many concepts.

But in the second year of school.

After everyone’s discussion.

After a night of discussion.

Yes, Hermione also won the honors student in the second year, but she has not been notified by the school yet.

As for Lin Xia's advance notification, it was an accident.

She can read relevant alchemy knowledge for free through school channels without needing to redeem points.

However, since she entered the second year, Hogwarts has further opened up its database to her.

It is really shocking that she published a paper on [Magnetic Wand] in her first academic year.

Hermione also built the laboratory here in Lin Xia, and used the gold galleons to support the construction of the laboratory to upgrade Lin Xia's laboratory.

As a result, the laboratory received its third upgrade in the second academic year!

They tested according to Lin Xia's idea, and Lin Xia's idea was also very simple.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising that the school knew about this.

First of all, the guardian magic text is very classic.

It is also one of the simplest and most basic alchemical magic texts, so she does not modify the core magic texts.

It's not that Lin Xia doesn't want to modify the core basic magic text, but it's just that he hasn't reached the level where it can be modified.

So she thought differently.

For example, can the magic talisman that carries the protective magic text be made more superior and have a better effect on the protective magic text?

Lin Xia and others spent the whole night studying the material of the magic talisman and conducted several experiments.

In addition, she not only has to gather the strength of her friends and brainstorm ideas, but also seeks help from off-site.

After morning class the next day, Lin Xia went to see Professor Babuling.

Professor Babuling was a little surprised that Lin Xia came to him, and first asked: "There is no problem with your forbidden magic text, right?"

Professor Babuling is busy with many things in a day, and her time is different from that of other professors.

To be precise, her entire body was in a state of disordered time.

Sometimes one day is as good as other professors' three days, and sometimes it's only 1/3 of others' days.

Logically speaking, noble people tend to forget things.

Professor Babuling had long forgotten that Lin Xia had come to see her before.

But because Lin Xia asked her about the forbidden magic text last time, she was deeply impressed. After Lin Xia left, she specially used the elf divination method to divine Lin Xia.

However, nothing can be divined.

She could only vaguely see a circle from Lin Xia.

This phenomenon has never happened before, so Babuling can't see through Lin Xia.

In her eyes, Lin Xia was an extremely mysterious little wizard who was loved by the goddess of magic.

Lin Xia said: "Professor, the effect of the forbidden magic text is very good. Everything is fine with me. I came to you this time to ask about another matter."

Babuling asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

Lin Xia told her about her desire to improve the guardian talisman and showed her the results of their night's research.

As a magic text professor, Babuling clearly knows that the guardian magic text is the simplest and most basic magic text.

If you were a person who was proficient in magic texts, you wouldn't have the idea of ​​modifying the basic magic texts. For them, the basic magic text is the core of all magic text and the origin of the entire magic text.

For example, there are many complex magic texts at the back, but they are actually all variations derived from the basic magic texts through continuous changes.

But Lin Xia had never been exposed to magic literature.

She came into contact with magic text entirely through hobbies and knowledge of alchemy.

Therefore, her ideas are not subject to any limitations and seem a bit whimsical.

Professor Babuling did not rebuke Lin Xia's idea. On the contrary, he was quite encouraging: "I look forward to the day when you can modify the basic core magic text."

The next second, she changed her words and said, "You are right. You have no ability to modify it now. Instead of starting with the basic core magic text, it is better to start with the material of the item that carries the magic text."

Professor Babuling asked: "Lin Xia, do you know why the guardian talisman is made of ordinary yellow talismans?"

Lin Xia thought for a while: "Is it because the yellow talisman has the best effect with the protective magic text?"

Professor Babuling shook his head: "No, it's because the production process of the yellow talisman is the simplest, and the materials are also very simple, so it can be made casually.

So when the wizarding world discovered that the yellow talisman could carry the protective magic text, the guardian talisman was born. "

She paused and smiled slightly: "Although it sounds a bit funny, this is the birth process of the guardian talisman.

Among them, no wizard has tested the power of the guardian talisman. Everyone only needs to know that the guardian talisman is helpful in resisting the power intrusion from the evil god's side. "

Babuling is busy with many things every day.

For something as simple as improving the guardian talisman, she could come up with several plans just by thinking about it.

But the problem is, she doesn't think about these issues at all.

The world she came into contact with was already separated from the wizarding world of ordinary people.

The guardian talisman is just a speck of dust floating in the air. Who would be interested in a speck of dust?
Babuling looked at Lin Xia with interest, but the student in front of her was different.

She has a very different character.

There was a thoughtful look in Babuling's eyes. Perhaps Lin Xia could really be the key to breaking the situation. She was very different.

Dumbledore's favorite candidate was Harry Potter, and she had never thought anything bad about Harry before.

But now, she values ​​Lin Xia more.

However, Professor Babling is still hesitant about whether to join this battle of fate.

Anyway, there is still time, so let’s observe in secret first.

Professor Babuling said: "I am very interested in your research topic. If possible, I hope to become your communications professor."

Lin Xia was a little surprised, this was a complete surprise.

She only hoped to get some help from Professor Babling, but Professor Babling gave her a piece of cake, suggesting that she could trouble her a little more.

Professor Babuling thought for a while, waved her hand gently, and a piece of parchment and an automatic quill floated up.

The automatic quill jumped quickly on the parchment, and after a while, lines of text appeared in front of Lin Xia.

After a few minutes, the automatic quill stopped jumping and the parchment automatically floated in front of Lin Xia.

"Although the guardian magic text is not my field of research, I have done some research on how to enhance the effects of the magic text.

No matter what type of magic text it is, it is still magic text after all, and there should be some connection in this regard.

Take this information back and you can try it one by one and use it as a reference. If you don’t understand anything, come to me. "

Professor Babuling said cheerfully. Just as Lin Xia was about to leave, her voice sounded from behind again.

"By the way, I gave you permission. You can come to me directly in the future without going through approval from other professors."

Lin Xia turned around and said thank you to Professor Babuling.

After she left Professor Babuling's office, she turned to look out the window.

The last time she came here, she came at noon. She didn't exchange a few words, and it was already dusk when she left.

This time, she also chose noon.

It felt like the conversation lasted longer than last time, but when I looked out the window, it was the same as when we came.

Lin Xia couldn't help but take out the magic clock from her small bag. She looked down and frowned, only 10 minutes had passed.

She turned to look at the office behind her.

All offices in Hogwarts are the same, and Professor Babbling is no exception. Her office style is also very ordinary, without any special decoration.

But every time Lin Xia went in, there was an unexpected gain.

She returned to the laboratory with the information given by the professor.

Hermione and others were all there, so they immediately held a meeting to discuss.

When Lin Xia went all out to make an enhanced version of the guardian talisman, some changes also occurred in Hogwarts.

In a dark and remote corner, Filch appeared holding an oil lamp, his body a little stooped.

He kept calling Mrs. Norris's name.

"Meow!" A shrill meow came, and Filch walked into an abandoned bathroom.

Mrs. Norris looked up at the ceiling of the bathroom, and she seemed to notice something unusual.

Filch also looked up, but found nothing.

He whispered: "Lori Si, don't go to too remote places recently."

All Filch's concern for Loris was on constantly strengthening the various protective equipment for it.

But even this could not eliminate his uneasiness.

In the past, when he patrolled, he would take Mrs. Norris with him. One person and one cat, they were the best partners.

But recently Filch has been thinking about letting Mrs. Norris take a break.

Recently, he has been suddenly feeling flustered and palpitating, as if something important is leaving him.

Only when he saw Mrs. Norris could he calm down.

"Meow!" Mrs. Norris still stared at the ceiling and called, louder and louder.

Filch looked up at the ceiling again and saw nothing.

He then picked up Mrs. Norris and left the bathroom.

Shortly after he left, a large shadow like night slowly emerged and descended on the bathroom.

A few more days passed.

Their research has not yet made any significant progress, but Draco has made unexpected gains elsewhere.

Draco went to Lin Xia alone and talked to her about the house elves.

"Last time you asked me to investigate Dobby, and this time I made new discoveries. He was transferred to work at the branch a few years ago, but then the branch sold him again, and the news has been lost since then."

Lin Xia asked: "When was it resold?"

Draco: "Two years ago."

Lin Xia: "Can you find a buyer?"

Draco shook his head: "Still checking, but I don't remember much about the house elves, so I'm afraid I won't be able to give an immediate reply.

If it weren't for my tough attitude, they probably wouldn't even say anything about the resale. "
