Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 261 271 The anti-phishing against the evil god’s whispers and the rescue potion were successfully produced!

Just started.

Lin Xia was reading a banned book, and she only felt that the scenery outside the window had changed.

This kind of low-level vision could not hinder her consciousness at all, and she didn't even need to practice the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records: The Furnace" method. Her strong body could withstand the invasion of these visions.

After an unknown amount of time, she felt that the reading space had changed, as if several people had come into the space and were reading books with her.

Lin Xia did not look up out of curiosity and turned a blind eye to these phenomena.

Once you are attracted and look up, you will most likely be dragged into the abyss by the devil.

As time went on, the visions intensified.

There were blunt knives being sharpened in her ears, children calling for help in her ears, and she also heard many screams and roars of being tortured.

The worst thing was that this time when Lin Xia was reading the banned book, the strange vision was no longer satisfied with interfering with her outside the banned book, but also tried to confuse her inside the banned book.

A deep red bold sentence as if written in blood floated in the font of the banned book, as if it had been branded in the banned book.

But as long as the reader is distracted by these crimson sentences, there is a high possibility that he will fall into a fatal trap.

This is a whisper from the devil, leading to the abyss of depravity.

[The reality you see is not the reality]

But the truth you hear is the truth.

【Don’t you want to know the truth that is buried in history? 】

When Lin Xia saw the third sentence, her eyes narrowed slightly, and this sentence awakened the memory that she had sealed not long ago.

But maybe the space where the banned books were kept was quite special, so she didn't feel any great terror coming.

But Lin Xia knew that once she returned to the real world, she must forget all these words, otherwise it would definitely bring danger to herself.

The kind of heart palpitations that made her tremble even now was definitely not something she could solve!

She silently activated the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records: The Furnace" and applied the power of the mysterious Yang to her fingertips.

As she pinched the edge of the book with her fingertips to turn the pages, the lines of deep red blood words disappeared quickly.

It was so fast that before Lin Xia could even read the contents of the banned book, the red words disappeared completely.

She divided her attention between reading the knowledge in the forbidden book and observing the changes happening around her.

Lin Xia's awareness of the dangers of reading banned books increased several levels.

External interference does not reach the soul directly.

With the means prepared by Hogwarts, as long as the wizards are focused and serious, they can resist one or two.

What is scary is the method of inserting sentences in books. Every sentence is like the devil's hell. Once you are tempted and think along the devil's lines, that is the beginning of your depravity.

The temptation of the evil god's whispers is hard to guard against.

Lin Xia didn’t know why they wanted to drag the wizards towards destruction. Did they want to cause the loss of senior talents in the wizarding world and achieve the purpose of consumption?
While thinking about the evil god's mumbling questions, she tried hard to absorb knowledge from books.

The large blank space in her mind was gradually filled with rich knowledge, which made Lin Xia's brows relax.

joy.

That's how she feels right now.

The knowledge content of the banned books in the wizarding world is indeed high. As long as Lin Xia reads a few more banned books, he feels that he can consider breaking through.

When facing the snake monster in the basement, entering the Xuandian realm as early as possible can save your life.

At the same time, as the evil god’s whispers burned in the “Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Records: The Crucible,” she also felt the exhaustion brought about by reading the forbidden book gradually becoming fuller.

She had discovered it before.

Wizards can not only resist the evil god's whispers, but can also use them to practice. Those with special means like her can directly convert the power of the whispers into their own!
Although she still couldn't figure out whether this power had different attributes and what benefits it would bring to her, Lin Xia had a hunch -

At least it's harmless.

At the same time, when the crimson blood words appeared, Mag and Sprout's expressions changed immediately.

They all felt a chilling sense of crisis!
Mag stared at the crystal ball.

Ever since Lin Xia read the banned book, a hazy mist has appeared in the crystal ball and Lin Xia's figure has become vague.

This is obviously a [no peek] state.

This has never happened to many young wizards, but it has happened to Lin Xia twice.

If you still think that there is nothing special about this little wizard Lin Xia, you are just deceiving yourself.

But it doesn’t matter, everyone has their own secrets.

Professors also have many secrets, so it is normal to turn a blind eye to them, and Hogwarts will not pry into the details.

But after that chilling feeling appeared, Professor McGonagall said cautiously: "Sprout, we must be prepared at all times. The space where Lin Xia is located may cause accidents at any time."

Sprout hummed softly, concentrating entirely on sensing the connection with Lin Xia.

She is not a combat wizard and has no way to resist problems such as space collapse, but she has a good sense of danger.

At this time, Sprout didn't dare to be distracted at all, for fear that Lin Xia was in danger and he couldn't sense it.

While Lin Xia was still leisurely reading the banned book, the two professors were already in a tense state of preparation.

But soon, Professor McGonagall discovered that Lin Xia was extremely calm.

This state of "ruthlessness and desirelessness" is exactly the type that the evil god's whispers are most difficult to deal with.

She praised: "As expected, he is able to completely resist the evil god's whispers. If every young wizard can have this kind of determination and character, why worry about not becoming a talent?"

Sprout smiled nervously, not wanting to get too distracted.

All in all, these are talents from Hufflepuff!

In the forbidden book space.

Lin Xia's reading has reached the most critical moment.

When the last page was turned, she had mastered all the knowledge and methods related to the poisonous fog.

Unfortunately, she did not gain any inheritance from it.

It is not a pity that knowledge related to poisons is what she lacks.

In many exciting and epic wars, "using poison" seems to be an inferior tactic.

People are more looking forward to the battle scenes of fist-to-fist or magic-to-magic rather than watching you use unconventional means such as poison.

But for Lin Xia, she doesn’t have the idea of ​​saving the world or becoming a superman.

She doesn't have to maintain a positive image forever.

Any means is just a way to achieve the goal.

Using poison is also a method she approves of.

In Hogwarts, it is difficult to use spells to fight.

Because Hogwarts has many ways to prohibit magic, and the castle is full of magical power, it is originally a large war fortress.

What if you keep talking so much that you trigger some kind of protection mechanism, and the school ends up expelling you?
Moreover, when one is weak, using poison is a way for the weak to defeat the strong.

At the same time, as long as poison is used well and at the right time, it will be difficult to be discovered and leave no trace.

Of course, if the top management really wants to check, it can be easily found out.

The wizarding world is not the real world after all.

They don't need the great detective Sherlock Holmes, they just need a retrospective technique similar to a branch of magic prophecy to reconstruct the scene at that time.

However, if she really wanted to cause trouble in the castle, she would naturally have a way to clear herself of suspicion.

As she read the last word, she understood all the contents of this forbidden book.

She placed all these contents in the palace deep in her memory, waiting to dig them out again during the sacrifice and then integrate them into her own knowledge system.

Then, Lin Xia made an unexpected move——

She did not close the forbidden book.

She stopped operating the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Record: The Furnace".

The evil god's whispers that were driven and devoured by Xuan Yang's power reappeared, not only trying to get into her ears, but also into her body and her eyes... Lin Xia looked at one of the sentences in the blood-colored font: [What you hear is the truth.]

Unlike in the past when she would just ignore it and not respond, she actually thought deeply about this sentence.

It was like a spark fell into an oil pan and immediately a raging fire started!
The countless whispers of the evil god gained some kind of power, expanded several times, and poured into her ears desperately.

These originally just mumbling and unclear sentences turned into loud sounds word by word when they entered her ears.

[This is all done by wizards! ]

[The people in the wizarding world created the tragedy themselves! ]

[Is this wizarding world still worth following? ]

【What is the truth of the world! 】

When her body had reached its limit, Lin Xia started to operate "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Record: The Furnace" again.

It was as if a gust of hot wind blew past, and a violent invisible vortex gathered in front of her, which impatiently transformed into a giant mouth, pulling all the evil god's whispers in and swallowing them one by one.

Use the furnace method, use yourself as bait, and fish for big fish!
The evil god's whispers, which were nourished by her own thoughts, all turned into nutrients to strengthen herself.

The evil god's whispers were intended to seduce her into depravity, so why didn't she take advantage of the situation and simply fish them out and turn them into her own nourishment?
The sumptuousness of this feast was so great that Lin Xia's magic form couldn't help but emerge, eager to join in the feast.

However, the next second, Lin Xia realized something and immediately dispersed his own skills.

And before it could be swallowed up, the whispering was able to escape with a gasp.

A few seconds later, Mag and Sprout appeared in front of Lin Xia. One of them grabbed her, and the other waved his wand and uttered an obscure spell!

A bright light condensed from the gap in Mag's wand, and a silver cat jumped out of it.

It just jumped gently around, and immediately made the evil god's whispering dare not approach, and some of them disappeared immediately.

The next second, Lin Xiatian was spinning, as if his body was stuffed into a crowded and narrow rubber tube.

All the organs of the body were squeezed together, and after various tumbling and spinning, they finally fell back to the ground.

The moment she landed, she pretended to almost fall.

Dean Sprout immediately supported her and asked worriedly, "Are you okay, kid?"

Lin Xia nodded.

Professor McGonagall said in a very serious tone: "Lin Xia, you made too much noise when you were reading the borrowed books.

When we went in, we heard the evil god's mutterings that were extremely strong and full of malice. This time you can't just do a normal check-up, but must be quarantined for three days.

This is a responsibility not only to you, but also to Hogwarts."

Lin Xia nodded in understanding, "I do, Professor."

Sprout couldn't help but ask, "Lin Xia, what did you find in the forbidden book? Why are those evil gods' whispers chasing you so relentlessly?
I have never seen a little wizard who can cause such a violent fluctuation like you. Those whispers are crazy and rush towards you like crazy!"

Lin Xia shook her head: "I was just reading a very ordinary book, but that kind of book is related to drugs."

Professor McGonagall asked lightly, "Poison?"

She paused, turned around and said, "If it's some very taboo knowledge, it's not surprising that the world on that side doesn't want you to take it away.

But if it was just poison, they shouldn't be so violent, after all, poison has no effect on them."

Professor McGonagall asked inquiringly, "Lin Xia, is there anything else you haven't told us?"

Lin Xia thought for a while and said hesitantly: "But the books I read are indeed only about poison. I learned some methods of making poison mist and preventing poisoning."

There is nothing to hide about this.

Afterwards, she will have to write a report to submit what she has gained from reading the banned book.

She couldn't just make up some unfounded knowledge, as that would attract the attention of the other two professors.

Lin Xia said: "If there was anything strange during that time, I felt my blood boiling.

I have a feeling that I will soon undergo a transformation and will be in great need of more knowledge.”

Mag and Sprout said in unison: "The blood of the Eastern Dragon, the evil god is spying on the power in your blood!"

Professor McGonagall said seriously, "Perhaps I should strengthen your security level and give you something more life-saving."

She said word by word: "You are too easy to attract prying eyes from the dark, Lin Xia!"

……

Harry returned to the Gryffindor common room with a dejected look on his face.

When Ron saw him like this, he knew that his communication with Hagrid was not going well.

He tried to arouse his friend's emotions, but when he found that his several classic jokes could not make Harry happy, Ron finally gave up this useless action.

He said, "Harry, though I knew all along that Hagrid would never admit that he opened the Chamber of Secrets."

Harry said, devastated, "No, he admitted it."

Ron's mouth was so big that an egg could fit in it. He screamed, "You said Hagrid opened the Chamber of Secrets?"

Harry shook his head. "No, he didn't open it. But it had something to do with one of his pets, a spider called Aragog.

He told me that he once suspected that it was his pet spider that did it, but he chose to believe that his pet spider had never left the closet, so even if he was slandered, he would not call the spider out.

Ron couldn't help but ask, "How can he be so stupid? Can't he tell which is more important, a spider or a chance to learn?"

Harry figured it out. "Hagrid believes it, but I don't believe him. I have to go to the Forbidden Forest and ask Aragog what happened back then."

Ron reached out and touched Harry's forehead and felt that he had a fever. Otherwise, how could he have such amazing ideas?
"Harry, no spider has that long a lifespan, Aragog is probably dead by now!
And the Forbidden Forest is extremely dangerous. You can't go in alone. Have you forgotten that we once drove past the Forbidden Forest and were almost killed by the plants there?"

Ron tried to persuade.

But Harry said firmly, "No, Aragog is still alive. I've read Hagrid's diary. Hagrid would go and feed it every year. He wrote it down in his diary. He also said that it had many offspring and grandchildren. I want to know the truth of that year!"

Ron thought Harry was crazy.

That's the forbidden forest!

He is brave, but not stupid.

They are only second-year students and have only learned a few magic tricks. Who gave them the courage to enter the Forbidden Forest?

But as soon as he met Harry's determined gaze, he knew that he might not be able to stop Harry.

Ron gave in and said, "Okay, if you really want to go to the Forbidden Forest, I must accompany you, and the Forbidden Forest matter needs to be considered carefully, you can't go alone."

Harry's eyes moved slightly: "Ron, the Forbidden Forest is too dangerous, you should -"

Ron interrupted him: "But I can't let you die, can I?"

Hermione came out of the laboratory after a long absence and couldn't find Ron, so she ran to the common room to look for him.

"You two are both here, it's just right, come and try my improved product. This is already the third generation, and I think I have improved it to the point where there are no drawbacks!"

Before Harry and Ron could say anything, they were dragged to the laboratory by Hermione.

Hermione was right. The third improved animal form was very much in line with human aesthetics, except for those ears and tail that were too unacceptable.

Harry and Ron both agreed that their beast forms made them look stronger.

But this is only visual strength, a disguised appearance, and has nothing to do with Transfiguration, nor will it bring any powerful power.

Hermione circled around the two of them, muttering, "I think we can add some customized content, some products for low-end customers, some products for high-end customers...

What if some people are not satisfied with cats, dogs, and foxes, but want ferocious forms like leopards, lions, and tigers?"

Ron couldn't help but interrupt, "Cats and dogs are so weak. Even if I have to change into an animal form, it must be a lion!"

Hermione nodded repeatedly: "You are right, girls can also prepare some cute forms such as rabbits and hamsters."

Only Harry looked depressed. He was obviously not a tester, so why was he dragged to take the test by Hermione?
Just as they were discussing, the door of Draco's laboratory was pushed open.

He walked out with a tired look on his face, holding a bottle of potion emitting a bright green light in his hand.

Draco was also surprised to see them, and he covered his temples which were aching from not sleeping all night and said, "It's just right that you are here, I have successfully developed a bottle of rescue potion using weird pharmacy.

But it has not been tested in any poison test, please help me do a research test using mice."

He stuffed the resuscitation potion into Hermione's arms and said in an almost erratic tone:
"I have to go back to the dorm to rest for a while. This is the most grueling research I have ever done.

You can’t imagine how harsh the conditions I’ve been through. I have to take a rest!”
