Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 294 Fairy Bai's Bloodline Returns to Her Ancestral Line

In the eyes of many young wizards, the news that "Professor Snape will temporarily serve as a part-time professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts" was no less than a disaster.

In the entire college, perhaps only Slytherin students could laugh.

Lin Xia was fortunate enough to be assigned to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class taught by Professor Snape.

In this class, they learned the "Iron Armor Spell".

For young wizards, the "Iron Armor Spell" is a universal defensive spell that can not only defend against most dark magic, but also defend against ordinary attack magic.

Everyone has a different understanding of the Iron Armor Curse, and the power it brings is also different.

Professor Snape demanded: "By the end of this semester, you must learn the Shield Charm. I will make the assessment of the Shield Charm the final exam of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course!"

He announced the news coldly in class and was the first to leave the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

After hearing the graduation conditions, the other young wizards couldn't stop wailing as soon as Professor Snape left.

"too difficult!"

"No, I can't do it!"

"Why is Professor Snape our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor? We should apply for other professors to teach us!"

Ron slumped over the table, looking hopeless.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts class he had just had was the worst class he had ever taken, even worse than when Lockhart taught them!

At least when Professor Lockhart teaches, he doesn't teach, nor does he force students to learn in a rigid way. He will stand on the podium and talk endlessly about his glorious examples.

Although the little wizard didn't learn anything, it was good to listen to fake adventure stories.

But Professor Snape is different. He will teach in much more detail and even correct the little wizard's wand-holding posture.

Even though his voice was extremely arrogant, it sounded like he was scolding people when he was teaching them.

But as a result, Snape's demands on them became higher and higher.

Ron said, "What do you think? If I call in sick on the day of the exam, will Professor Snape give me a passing grade out of consideration for their past friendship?"

Hermione said bluntly, "He will just give you the worst grade possible, an F, for the sake of past friendship, and will write to your parents, saying that you did terribly in Defense Against the Dark Arts and sincerely recommending that you retake the class!"

Ron said in distress, "But his demands are too high, don't you think so, Harry?"

Before Harry could speak, Lin Xia said, "But this is not just Professor Snape's requirement. If I'm not mistaken, this should be the requirement of all Defense Against the Dark Arts professors."

night.

Everyone had their meal in the auditorium.

The young wizards from other academies communicated with each other and found that they were all the same.

Draco got the news and walked over and said, "It seems that the school believes that young wizards must have a certain level of defense against the dark arts, so we must learn the Shield Charm in the second grade.

Normally, schools would only make this requirement in the fourth grade, but this time it is two years earlier.”

Hermione couldn't help but frown.

The Shield Charm was not difficult for her. Instead, she was worried about another point: Did Hogwarts sense some crisis and therefore stepped up its efforts to improve the abilities of young wizards?

She told Lin Xia about this doubt.

Lin Xia thought for a while and replied: "I don't know either, but something happens every year in the school, that...

Well, you know, that person, if nothing unexpected happens, should return to Hogwarts once a year. It is a good thing for the little wizard to enhance his self-protection ability."

In fact, Lin Xia had long believed that Hogwarts had very lax management of young wizards in the lower grades.

But depending on the situation, the school will manage senior students more strictly.

Now.

It's just to put some pressure on the little wizard in advance.

Although the Shield Charm was difficult to learn, fortunately Professor Snape was a relatively good professor. Under his pressure like that of a snake king, no little wizard dared to slack off in class.

This actually led to the little wizard learning and making rapid progress.

On the other side, after a week of treatment, the petrified people and cats in Hogwarts have gradually woken up!
The first to wake up are humans.

As soon as Colin woke up, he saw his idol Harry Potter sitting next to him, asking him worriedly if he was feeling unwell and asking him to tell him if he was feeling unwell.

At the same time, he was promised an exclusive interview!
This made Colin faint again with joy!

When he fainted, Madam Pomfrey was shocked, thinking that he had been given too little potion.

After a hurried investigation, we found out that he was so happy that he fainted, which was speechless.

The other little wizards who woke up also calmed down after being comforted by their professors.

If it wasn't the end of the semester, professors from various colleges would have wanted to give petrochemical students a holiday.

So that they can return to their families and reunite with their loved ones.

Unfortunately, time does not allow.

Hogwarts is not open to outsiders for the time being, so the relatives of these little wizards can only go to Hogsmeade village to reunite on weekends.

As for the cost of arranging people to go to Hogsmeade village, it will be paid by Hogwarts, and it will be promoted to the outside world as "humanitarian care."

After people wake up, it is their turn to rescue the small animals.

Lin Xia went to the infirmary every night these days, and the other person who went with her was Filch.

She was very determined that her White Fairy would wake up.

Filch was different.

He was very nervous. His pale and thin face looked so haggard that his eyes seemed more bulging and he looked a little scary.

Every time Lin Xia saw him, she could sense that something was not right with him.

I thought that since Mrs. Norris hadn't woken up yet, Filch might not be able to hold on any longer.

"Madam Pomfrey, why haven't these two kittens woken up yet? It's been a week."

In the infirmary.

Filch stared at the petrified Mrs. Norris with deep affection and sadness, and asked eagerly.

Madam Pomfrey said sympathetically, "Don't worry too much. The dosage of the potion is sufficient, but because you have been petrified for too long, your body functions need to be further awakened.

They appear to be sleeping, but they are actually gathering energy bit by bit.”

Looking at Filch's increasingly thin body, Pomfrey couldn't help but say, "Administrator Filch, why don't you come check me out first? I feel like there's something wrong with your body."

Filch shook his head quickly, his eyes fixed on Mrs. Norris, and muttered to himself, "No, I'm fine. I have to wait for it to wake up!"

Just then, Lin Xia exclaimed.

"The petrification symptoms on them are fading. Are they about to wake up?"

Filch looked over quickly and saw the White Fairy's body gradually transforming into her real body, the petrification gradually fading away.

He looked at his own Madam Loris again and asked anxiously, "Why is my Madam Loris still petrified? Is there something wrong?"

Pomfrey checked it immediately, "Let me see."

After a while, Mrs. Loris's petrification gradually faded, but not as quickly as the White Fairy's.

By the time Fairy Bai's petrification had completely faded, Lady Loris's petrification had only faded halfway.

"Meow~" Fairy Bai stretched her body, stretched her waist, and called lazily. She licked her paws and jumped onto Lin Xia's shoulder in a few seconds.

"Meow meow~"

Fairy Bai rubbed Lin Xia's fair little face with her furry face.

Lin Xia scratched its chin and asked gently, "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

The White Fairy shook her head in a very human way.

Just in case, Lin Xia asked Madam Pomfrey to give the White Fairy a full body examination.

Even Madam Pomfrey claimed, "I'm not a veterinarian, and I've never examined a pet. But I'll give it a quick scan if you ask."

Another struggle.

After getting Pomfrey's promise of "incomparable health", Lin Xia took the White Fairy back to the golden wooden house.

Draco arrived at the Hufflepuff common room in advance and waited there. When he saw Lin Xia leading the White Fairy in, his eyes lit up.

This week.

He studies in the common room.

On the one hand, he was worried about Lin Xia's safety, and on the other hand, he also wanted to give a gift to Fairy Bai as soon as possible.

He likes the White Fairy very much.

If Lin Xia hadn't refused to let him go to the infirmary with her, Draco would have insisted on going there every night.

"Congratulations on your discharge, White Fairy."

Draco carefully held the White Fairy's paw and gave it a gift, which was a small cat bell wrapped in a yellow ribbon.

The white fairy meowed, jumped onto Draco's shoulder, retracted its sharp claws, and touched his face with the soft pads of its paws.

Then he picked up the yellow bell and jumped onto Lin Xia's shoulder again.

Lin Xia said with a smile: "Fairy Bai is very satisfied with this gift. Thank you, Draco."

Draco said proudly, "It's a small matter. It feels weird to go jogging in the morning without the White Fairy by my side."

As the heir to the wealthy Malfoy family, everything he does is bound to be top quality.

This bell may look simple and ordinary, but it is actually a rare item. Its effect is that it can form a protective shield when attacked.

The effect of the protective shield is slightly weaker than the armor spell cast by the wizard.

After returning to the golden wooden house.

Lin Xia checked Fairy Bai's body again. She had a soul imprint in Fairy Bai's body, so she could see the changes in Fairy Bai's body more clearly.

After checking it out, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

I don’t know if it was her illusion, but why did she feel that after being petrified this time, Fairy Bai became healthier?

The hidden bloodline in its body seems to show signs of reverting to its ancestral form and evolving again.

Lin Xia thought for a while and summoned the Scales of Destiny.

The White Fairy jumped onto one of the trays without hesitation. The power of the scales of fate exerted on it, making it feel a little uncomfortable.

Lin Xia took this opportunity to find out what was going on.

Breaking through numerous restraints, Lin Xia saw the innermost soul mark of the little white cat and discovered that the black and white cat deep in its soul had grown larger.

Correspondingly, her soul mark became weaker.

It just so happened that Lin Xia had recently learned the "Slytherin Soul Tempering Method", and her soul had become much stronger, and she also had a deeper understanding of soul division.

She used some soul-splitting techniques from the hammering method, cut out a trace of soul, and covered it on the soul mark of the little white cat.

The soul mark felt the power, as if the dust on the surface had been wiped off, and it began to shine again.

Lin Xia's consciousness returned to her body and the scales of fate were removed.

Without the pressure from the scales of fate, at this moment, Lin Xia had a deeper understanding of Fairy Bai's body.

It has indeed become stronger, and the phenomenon of atavism has deepened.

This should be treating petrification as a strong external stimulus, stimulating the hidden blood in the White Fairy's body to fight back.

If the petrification is not lifted, this confrontation will continue, and the blood in its body will continue to revive and return to its ancestral state until the power of the blood can suppress the power of petrification, and it will wake up.

This made Lin Xia feel like petrifying Fairy Bai again.

"Meow meow~"

Fairy Bai tilted her head and looked at Lin Xia with a confused look.

Lin Xia smiled gently and stroked its head.

Forget it. If we continue to fight like this, we may not be able to fully revive our bloodline even if we wait for a hundred years.

It is better to wake up quickly, stay by her side, and practice with her.

The souls of the White Fairy and her are bound to each other. The stronger she is, the stronger the feedback the White Fairy can get. They complement each other.

Similarly, the more powerful the White Fairy is, the more help she can get.

"Just stay with me." Lin Xia said softly, and began to do the daily practice exercises.

During this period, she did not open her diary.

Firstly, there was no need for a diary, and secondly, Lin Xia felt that Tom should be given more time to think.

……

Today, the little wizards who came to class made a surprising discovery -

They were in the bustling Great Hall and saw Filch on patrol!

He had changed from his previous decadence and was carrying out his daily patrols with great energy. His large, bulging eyes had become extremely sharp.

Next to him stood a dark gray cat, it was the long-lost Mrs. Norris!

The little wizard passed by him in fear, for fear that he would suddenly stop him and deduct points.

"Administrator Filch seems to be in better spirits!"

"Have you seen Mrs. Norris? Why do I feel like there are more decorations on her?"

"Yeah, I also saw several amulets hanging on it. So, are amulets useful to cats?"

On the chair next to Lin Xia, Fairy Bai squatted slowly, licking her hot goat milk gracefully, turning her neck from time to time, and the bell around her neck made a "ding-ling, ding-ling" sound.

Hermione, Ron and Harry all welcomed the return of the White Fairy!
They kept teasing the White Fairy, but the cold White Fairy ignored them and drank her goat milk slowly.

After breakfast, Lin Xia prepared to go to the classroom for class.

Suddenly, a bunch of owls flew in from the high windows, each holding several newspapers in their mouths.

An owl flew over Lin Xia's head.

Three newspapers fell into her arms one after another.

Lin Xia looked down and saw that one of them was the Daily Prophet. On it was a large cover page with a scene of Lockhart being imprisoned in Azkaban, banging on the iron bars with both hands, looking like a madman.

《The fall of a genius wizard writer? No, he was a liar from beginning to end! 》
