Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 277 The Eye of Destiny, Peeping into Everyone’s Fate

Hermione's concerns were no less than Ron's.

She is an excellent student. If she breaks into the forbidden forest in the middle of the night and is discovered by the professor, not only will her parents be notified, causing them to worry about her, but her status as an excellent student may also be revoked.

After all, the rule “No trespassing in the forbidden forest” is written in the school rules. Anyone who trespasses will be punished and will be disqualified from being evaluated for excellence.

Hermione whispered, "But if the professor really finds out, you can get leniency and a lighter punishment if you confess."

Harry felt a little guilty when he heard this.

The two friends drove to the Forbidden Forest with him because they were worried about him.

He realized that what he had done was very reckless.

We should have done as Lin Xia said and prepared everything before going to the Forbidden Forest, but it's too late to say anything now.

Harry said firmly, "If the professor asks, you can put it all on me and I will take the responsibility!"

Ron shook his head. At this moment, he was very clear in his mind.

"Harry, this is none of your business. We went there voluntarily. Don't take all the blame on us. If we pretend we don't know and let you go to such a dangerous place, we won't be your friends anymore."

Harry was touched, and secretly thought that when the time came, he should confess immediately, only talking about himself, and not involving Ron and Hermione.

On the other side, Lin Xia, who had been using the extrasensory spell to enhance her hearing, had a slightly changed expression as she heard the conversation between Harry and the others.

She smiled softly and turned to look at Draco, "You haven't told Harry and the others the news you got yet. Tell them quickly, or they won't have any wild thoughts."

Draco was a little confused at first, then his eyes flashed and he reacted.

Yes, if it weren’t for what happened in the library last night, with all the professors making such a big fuss today, nine out of ten of them would have suspected that what they had done had been exposed.

Thinking of this, Draco hurried out of the Hufflepuff team and went to Harry's side.

They chatted for a while, and Harry and the others visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon after they knew the news.

The first-year wizards who had completed the inspection did not disperse, but stayed in the auditorium.

The professors were all checking on the young wizards, no one was in class, and there was no point in going to the classroom now.

These little wizards kept chattering away, and after listening to them, the wizards from other grades roughly understood what was going on.

"It is said that an accident occurred in the library, and a particularly powerful magical creature was released. It can change into various shapes and even eat people. It replaces wizards and walks around the school!"

"No, no, I heard that there was a powerful person who emptied out more than half of the restricted book section of the library. The school suffered heavy losses, so they gathered us all together for inspection!"

"No, you are all wrong. The library has been invaded by aliens. All the wizards who stayed in the library last night are out of control. We must check them out and send them to Saint Gomand!"

The little wizard was discussing with great interest.

They even had a betting game to decide which discussion was the most accurate, with the Weasley twins acting as the banker.

Wherever there is money to be made, there are the Weasley twins.

Lin Xia listened silently to the discussion of these young wizards, while adjusting his own breath, and gradually restraining the energy aftermath after the breakthrough.

It was also a good thing that the professor was not in the auditorium.

Otherwise, if I saw her, I would probably feel suspicious.

The state of just breaking through is different from that of an ordinary wizard. If there is any real difference, it is that after the breakthrough, she will be closer to the form of a perfect species.

Standing among a group of wizards, one can tell her difference at a glance.

Whether it is temperament or appearance, there is a unique charm.

The Hufflepuff classmates were used to seeing Lin Xia because they were with her day and night, so they didn't notice it for a while.

But Lin Xia was clear that when she came in, both senior and junior wizards couldn't help but look at her.

As her breath gradually subsided, the wizards unconsciously looked away.

After concealing his breath, Lin Xia was more happy to fish in troubled waters without any pressure.

She wasn't the only one who went to the library last night, and she wasn't the one who was really worried.

Lin Xia couldn't help but glance at Mikel.

The Gryffindor team was right next to the Hufflepuff team, and with a casual glance, you could catch a glimpse of what the people on the other side were doing.

Unlike the little wizards who were being discussed around him, Mikel looked a little gloomy and depressed.

At first glance, apart from the greasy hair that doesn't match Professor Snape, he looks a bit like a smaller version of Snape.

Suddenly, Lin Xia frowned slightly and felt her eyes a little itchy. She couldn't help but rub them with her hand.

Mikel was in a very bad mood.

There's something wrong with his system!
The reason was that the shadow and whispers of the evil god he encountered yesterday were too powerful. After leaving the forbidden book area, the system was busy clearing the negative state of his body.

According to the natural clearance time, it would take at least a month for his body to return to normal and get rid of the strange feeling that something was wrong with his body.

But now, the professors were examining the young wizard with such fanfare that Mikel was worried whether the system could conceal the truth.

"Do I have to bleed?"

When Mikel thought of this, he felt a little painful.

He has been accumulating experience for a long time, just waiting to upgrade!
Once he upgrades from a low-level wizard to a mid-level wizard, he will be able to unlock many system functions and have more means of saving his life.

Not only can you quickly become stronger, this upgrade is an all-round upgrade that can improve your wizard's qualifications.

By then, perhaps he could even think about being an excellent student at Hogwarts!
He had been envious of the treatment that Lin Xia, Hermione and Draco received for a long time. If he had the same resources as them, he would have been successful long ago.

As the second-year wizards were called in, Mikel became more and more conflicted, but he finally made up his mind.

If you can't let go of the child, you can't trap the wolf.

Compared to being discovered by the professor, not knowing where I would be sent to or what kind of cleansing ritual I would undergo, this uncertain prospect was more dangerous.

It is better to continue to stay alive and develop in a low-key manner.

After thinking about this, Mikel no longer hesitated and quickly used his experience points to speed up the system to remove the evil spirit's aura from him.

And on Lin Xia's side.

Ever since she looked at Mikel, her eyes felt extremely itchy and she couldn't help but rub them with her hands.

But Lin Xia didn't feel any danger.

This strange itch is probably just a biological reaction and will not cause any harm to the body.

Draco saw that she had been rubbing her eyes, and couldn't help asking: "Lin Xia, are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Xia closed her eyes, rubbed her face and shook her head, and replied: "No, I just suddenly felt a little itchy."

After the strange itching, a cool feeling came from my eyes, which was extremely comfortable.

Lin Xia opened her eyes again and met Draco's gaze. Both of them were stunned.

"Lin Xia, what's wrong with your eyes? Why are they a little blue? Are you wearing Muggle colored contact lenses?"

Lin Xia looked Draco up and down and replied calmly, "No."

She blinked several times and asked, "Now?"

Draco said, "It's the same as before, it's back to normal, what happened just now?" Lin Xia said calmly, "Oh, I was experimenting with a magic spell, a color-changing spell, trying to see if I could change the color of my pupils, so it was so itchy just now.

I didn’t expect that the color-changing spell can not only change the color of the hair on the surface of an organism, but also the color inside the organism. This is really an interesting attempt.”

The color-changing spell can indeed change the color of the inside and outside of the body, but she had tried this in her first grade.

This time I said it just to fool Draco.

The calmer Lin Xia appeared on the surface, the more shocked she was in her heart, because from her eyes, she actually saw lines of words appearing above Draco's head.

And those words will only flash when the destiny compass turns to the [Physiognomy] column.

Does this mean that her eyes already possess some of the abilities of a compass for knowing one's destiny?

This is really good news.

Of course, when Lin Xia looked at Draco again, there was no small words appearing, and those words just flashed by.

In other words, even though her eyes possess some of the abilities of the destiny compass, like the destiny compass, they are triggered at irregular intervals.

However, the triggering steps are not as complicated as the destiny compass. With chance, she can use [physiognomy] to spy on the fate of others anytime and anywhere!

Lin Xia had a hunch.

This ability should have appeared after she arrived at the Xuandian realm.

"Let's call this ability the Eye of Knowing Destiny."

Lin Xia thought to herself and looked in Mikel's direction again.

This time, the ability of the Eye of Destiny was activated, and Lin Xia saw something different.

[In pain]
[I don't want to be discovered]
[The pace of advancement has been slowed down]
At the same time, she also noticed something different.

Around Mikel, there was some blue-purple light flickering. The light was very weak and could only be detected with special abilities.

Moreover, Lin Xia could feel that this ray of light was powerful. It attached to Mikel and then continued to extend upwards.

Lin Xia raised her head slightly and looked at the ceiling of the auditorium.

This ray of light has penetrated the ceiling and should be extending towards the sky. The higher it is, the harder it is to see.

Her eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about something.

Perhaps this ray of light is the system that Mikel always talks about?
This is not a word that Lin Xia came up with.

But the fate compass would allow her to see Mikel's diary from time to time while she was sleeping.

Mikel calls the abilities he possesses a system.

After looking at Mikel, Lin Xia looked at Grace through the sparse crowd of Gryffindors.

If there is no accident.

Greg’s gains yesterday were also huge, and he received the news in advance and deliberately went to the library to check it out.

She still remembered that when she left that area, there was a hazy black light around Gress, which enveloped him and isolated him from the surrounding white fog.

With this look, the power of the Eye of Destiny was activated again.

Lin Xia's heart was filled with shock, which shocked her more than when she obtained the Eye of Destiny.

The words that flashed past his head were much more than those of Mikel, and they were so fast that they disappeared in just one second.

But Lin Xia still remembered it.

[Resurrection]
[Soul of the Dark Lord]
[Return again]
[The Final Awakener of the Chamber of Secrets]
[Controlling the Basilisk]
[Don't be scheming]
[Clearing up the betrayers who made the wrong choice]
……

How did Gris's soul become the Dark Lord?

If his soul contained the Dark Lord, then what was the matter with the diary she had?

Lin Xia’s thoughts were racing. No, that wasn’t right… There had never been a rule that two Horcruxes couldn’t appear at the same time. What if Gris was converted into a Horcrux by the Dark Lord?

There's just something wrong.

How come the Dark Lord has so many souls that he can grab a handful at a time and create Horcruxes anytime and anywhere?
There must be some opportunities.

In a flash of inspiration, Lin Xia suddenly thought of the black iron ring that Grace was wearing, and her eyes flickered.

Perhaps the key to soul transformation lies in that ring!
Lin Xia turned her head away, she was afraid that if she continued to look, Grace would notice something.

The current Gries is no longer Gries, but the dreaded Dark Lord!

Although she thought the Dark Lord was just a clown, in terms of real strength...

Even if his soul is split like this, he can still stir up trouble outside.

It is conceivable that he has real ability, no wonder he can fight against Dumbledore.

At least at this stage, Lin Xia didn't want to conflict with him.

After Lin Xia looked away, Grace seemed to sense something and looked in the direction of the previous sense of prying.

He only saw some Gryffindor idiots discussing something with great enthusiasm, but the chat was all meaningless.

Gries couldn't help but sneer.

Decades have passed, and Gryffindor students are still as unimproving, impulsive and reckless as ever, only using force but not their brains.

He shifted his gaze slightly, then looked at Harry.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly and he saw Draco next to Harry.

Grace thought for a while and took the initiative to walk over and say hello.

"Hello Harry, Draco, I have a question for you."

Ron and Hermione looked at each other, both in a vigilant and defensive posture, and subconsciously took a step forward to stand between Harry.

Gress's behavior was very unusual.

Ron said, "Gris, we have nothing to talk about with you."

Greg didn't even look at Ron, simply ignored him and just smiled at Harry.

"Harry, I'd like to know why you didn't choose Slytherin?
You are a natural Slytherin, you have great ambitions, a position within your reach, and you can hear Parseltongue. You are the heir of Slytherin."

Without waiting for Harry to answer, he looked at Draco again and asked the same question:

"Why didn't you choose Slytherin?"

When facing Draco, Grace did not show such good self-control. He stared at him sharply with a gloomy face, as if he had become a different person.

Gries seemed to insist on an answer from him.

Draco was slightly startled.

This look was a bit like the way his father looked at his subordinates.

His father looked at him with gentle eyes, not so cold, but he was always arrogant to outsiders.

Being able to talk to him seems like a gift to him.
