Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 405: A sudden study assignment for the professor

Bellatrix had been seriously injured and almost died.

But I don’t know if it’s because her body is very compatible with the strange creature that the evil god brought into this world, and it actually merged some of its characteristics.

This resulted in Bellatrix having some immortality, which ultimately brought her back from the brink of death.

Bellatrix was dazed and confused when she fell into a coma, and she didn't know how she managed to survive, but the other Death Eaters knew.

The Death Eaters put her in a dark room and left her to die. No one provided her with any healing potion, not even the simplest bandage.

Many Death Eaters have always been dissatisfied with Bella's autocratic behavior.

Especially in recent years, Bella's temper has been unstable, like a mad woman, and she always organizes various Death Eater gatherings in a very arrogant manner.

If they participated, their identities would be easily exposed. If they didn't participate, Bella would come and accuse them. Are they going to turn against her?

Many Death Eaters lived in fear.

Bella has become a thorn in the side of the Death Eaters.

They all want to take this opportunity to get rid of Bella!

And as one of Voldemort's generals, Bella enjoyed many benefits.

Once Bella dies, someone will come to replace her and become Voldemort's confidant.

The Death Eaters were thinking about it and all hoped that she would die.

But who would have thought that after suffering such a horrific attack, Bella's body actually recovered day by day without any help!

Every day, I can see her healing herself!

Some Death Eaters specifically checked the magic concentration in the room where Bella was and found that there was very little magic left there. Bella might have used other energy to heal herself.

Some Death Eaters speculated that the energy used might be from the world of evil gods.

The evil god world is merging with the wizard world, and both worlds have undergone some changes. The energy of the evil god world has gradually spread to the wizard world.

Bella specially convened a Death Eater gathering today because her body has almost recovered and she ambitiously wants to launch another round of attacks.

She actually wanted to carry out this attack inside Hogwarts!
All the Death Eaters seriously voted against Bella's proposal.

"We don't agree. It's been less than half a year since the last attack. The Ministry of Magic has not let down its guard and has been out hunting us."

"We still need to think about this matter carefully. We don't have a perfect plan yet. We can't just attack the school right away, right?
There is a defensive formation outside Hogwarts. We once studied in Hogwarts, so we know how powerful this school is!"

"There's still Dumbledore guarding Hogwarts from time to time. The master hasn't returned yet, so it's not advisable for us to run into Dumbledore right away."

The bloodshot in Bella's eyes faded a little and she calmed down a little.

"I will create an opportunity to enter Hogwarts. If there is a loophole, you will come in with me. Don't make excuses!"

The other Death Eaters asked curiously, "What's the opportunity?"

Bella smiled coldly, and suddenly turned to look at the Death Eater standing in the corner.

This Death Eater was very different from the other Death Eaters.

He was very short, like a dwarf, thin, and exuded the aura of a weak person.

Feeling everyone's gaze, the Death Eater couldn't help but shrink his body and buried his face so low that no one could see his features clearly.

I only noticed his exposed hands.

These were a pair of pointed hands that were not human at all.

Some of the Death Eaters had a thoughtful look in their eyes. With a body shape like this, could it be a house-elf or a goblin from Gringotts?

After the party ended, some Death Eaters looked around and seemed to understand something.

They were having a party at Black Manor tonight, but Kreacher, the house-elf who had been entertaining them, did not show up.

After all the Death Eaters left, Kreacher returned to Bella again.

Kreacher was wearing a black robe and a hood. He was the Death Eater that Neville had just hidden in the corner.

There was already a black mark of a Death Eater on its right arm.

Through Bella's introduction, Kreacher, a dirty and ugly house-elf, also joined the Death Eaters.

Kreacher looked at Bella and said timidly: "I have done as you said, my master. When can I come back?"

Bella's expression turned cold, she stared at Kreacher, and a sharp voice sounded.

"Your master?"

Kreacher shuddered violently.

Bella's voice suddenly became very gentle: "Kreacher, tell me, who is your master?"

Kreacher stammered, "My master is the Dark Lord."

Bellatrix smiled softly and said very gently: "Yes, your current master is the Dark Lord. Don't recognize the wrong master next time. You are not worthy of recognizing a dead person as your master."

Kreacher mustered up the courage to say, "I, I want to revive Regulus."

Bellatrix suddenly smiled, which turned into a crazy laugh: "Resurrecting the dead, only my great master can do it!"

She turned suddenly and her voice became sinister and cold.

"Kreacher, do what you should do. When the Dark Lord returns, he will naturally give you everything you want."

After saying these words, Bella's attitude became gentle again, as if nothing had happened, and she asked:

"You said before that you had completed the task I assigned to you. How did you get the locket into Hogwarts?"

Kreacher: "I sold the locket to a down-and-out businessman named Mundungus, whom I heard bragging about in a pub.

He said that he had been a member of the Order of the Phoenix, that Dumbledore liked to ask him for information, and that he was always loyal to Dumbledore.

But because he offended Mrs. Weasley, Dumbledore refused to let him into the Hog's Head Inn, so now he can only make a living by selling some things.

He likes to do business with Hogwarts students the most. Those students are stupid and easy to cheat. They always like to buy some strange things from him, especially the Weasley twins!"

Kreacher paused and continued, "I saw that he had connections with Hogwarts, so I took out the locket and asked him if he wanted to buy it.

Mundungus fell in love with the locket at first sight and said it was a beautiful antique. He did not find anything unusual about the locket and spent money to buy it.

I was in the bar a long time, and then I followed Mundungus out, and I saw him sell the locket to a Slytherin for three times the price."

Bellatrix said with great satisfaction: "You did a good job, Kreacher."

She didn't know what she was thinking of, and asked again: "This locket is definitely not a Horcrux, I sense some familiar aura from it, but I'm not too sure, it's a little different from the Horcruxes I came into contact with before."

Kreacher's heart was beating fast, and he tried to stay calm and said, "Of course not, the real Horcrux has been taken away by my master--"

Bella's gaze suddenly turned gloomy as she looked at him. Kreacher immediately changed his words, stammering, "I was placed on a deserted island by my former master. There are many Inferi hiding around the island. It is very difficult to get on. I have to go through several checkpoints.

The locket placed in the manor was once used by the Dark Lord, so it has a little bit of his scent on it."

Bella nodded in satisfaction and murmured to herself, “With the scent of the locket, we can definitely lure out the evil reptiles hiding in Hogwarts.

Perhaps, I can still find out information about the master's Horcrux... I clearly contacted it before, but for some reason the connection suddenly dropped, as if it had found a new user, but this is impossible.

This is the master's Horcrux. Only the master can use it. It is impossible for a Horcrux to change its owner. Perhaps it has been hidden by someone in some hard-to-detect place."

Kreacher lowered his head.

No one noticed that his eyes were wide open, flashing with hatred! -
Harry finally took Scabbers the rat to the dormitory.

As for Ron.

Ron still couldn't face it. He didn't dare to look at his pet. He looked very stiff.

Seeing this, Lin Xia didn't force him to pretend that he loved his pet very much, otherwise he would be exposed.

Anyway, Ron didn't care much about Scabbers normally, so he just did what he did normally. At most, Ron would no longer actively look for Scabbers.

But Hermione and her pet Crookshanks still caught Scabbers when necessary, just like before.

Anyway, Scabbers always manages to escape Crookshanks' terrifying cat claws.

Time passed by and it was Friday.

There is a Quidditch match tomorrow weekend. The little wizards are a little excited and start betting on Slytherin to win, or Gryffindor?
George and Fred are crazy busy tonight!
The betting deadline is tonight, and the little wizard who was hesitant before has burst into great enthusiasm tonight.

At the dinner in the auditorium.

A dispute broke out between the Slytherin and Gryffindor teams.

"Wood, tomorrow's match will be won by Slytherin. We will never lose!"

Wood looked at the captain of the Slytherin team with a gloomy face, "We won't lose either!"

"Haha, don't think you can sit back and relax just because you have Harry. Harry has never played ball in such bad weather before!"

Harry wanted to say, "I'm not afraid of extreme weather at all!"

He opened his mouth several times, but in the end he couldn't say anything harsh.

The Weasley twins wandered around for a long time and finally wandered into the team.

After passing the Slytherin group, George patted Harry on the shoulder and signaled him not to be so nervous.

"In extreme weather conditions, it's equally difficult for everyone to play. The Slytherins just want to create some momentum. We Gryffindors are not afraid at all."

Harry nodded solemnly, but in his heart he was thinking that Gryffindor could also take the initiative to provoke Slytherin, although this approach was not glorious.

But he didn't want the Slytherin villain to succeed.

After finishing an experiment, Lin Xia came to the Hufflepuff table in the Great Hall and listened to the young wizards around her discussing tomorrow's Quidditch match.

Draco was also watching the game.

He said: "I got an offer from the Hufflepuff team and they want me to be their suitor this year."

Lin Xia: "You are already in the third grade and you are in excellent physical condition. It is not surprising that they chose you."

Draco asked nervously, "Lin Xia, should I participate?"

Lin Xia looked up at him: "Haven't you always liked Quidditch?"

Draco nodded. "Yes, I like it very much. My father and mother like it very much, but they don't support me becoming a Quidditch player. They think it will distract me."

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows. "Since you have discussed it with your parents, you should have an idea in your mind. Why bother asking me?"

Draco smiled and said, "I still hope to get your opinion."

Lin Xia said: "It is impossible for you to become a professional Quidditch player, and your family will not allow you to be so willful.

So the only chance you have to be willful is at school, where you can treat it as a hobby.

Draco, our time in school is very short. Whether you or other young wizards come to me for advice, my advice is that you should try more while you are still young.

Whatever you do as a student will become one of the wonderful memories in your wizarding career."

Draco's eyes lit up, and he became more determined. He already had an idea.

"I will be joining the team starting next week. I also want to represent Hufflepuff and participate in the Quidditch competition."

While the little wizard was happily eating and chatting.

All Hogwarts professors received a message from Dumbledore.

In Hogwarts, professors also have secret keys and other means of communication, and Dumbledore has the highest authority.

Even without the entry key, you can still receive messages from Dumbledore.

At the same time, Dumbledore's words rang in the ears of all professors -

"To unlock the secret key, you need to learn new knowledge and try to complete some tasks."

Mag was in the office and immediately logged into the secret key and came to the professor's exclusive page, which was very different from the secret key template shown to outstanding students.

She clicked on the parchment icon, which contained all the magic knowledge.

McGonagall once studied at Hogwarts and took the magic rune class. She was a top student and knew a lot of basic magic runes.

However, Professor Babel said that her talent in magic runes was average, and she wanted to study transfiguration more during her research, so she did not continue to study magic runs.

Professor McGonagall looked over the magic knowledge several times and was quite surprised.

Instead of issuing an emergency notice, Dumbledore taught them knowledge of magic. What was he trying to do?
Soon, all the professors understood the reason. Dumbledore wanted all faculty members to make a strange item called "Glorious Candle"!

It is known that the glow candle can only be made by a wizard with a solid foundation in magic. Once it is successfully made, it can not only effectively block the evil god's whispering, but also allow the reading of banned books without any obstacles.

It is three times more effective than the rare items currently used!
At the same time, you can also use the glow candle to explore the world of evil gods, which is very helpful for wizards who enter the border between the world of evil gods and wizards.

As for the inventor of the glow candle, Dumbledore did not explain.

This is for some kind of protection.

All the professors were amazed when they saw the effect of the glow candles.

"How can there be such a magical thing!"

“Who on earth came up with this?”

"Could this be Professor Babel's research result?" (End of this chapter)
