Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

After class, Ron repeatedly told Harry, "I think I really have a talent for Transfiguration. You see, after Professor McGonagall gave me some pointers, I understood everything. And my reaction speed in Transfiguration today is better than before."

Harry nodded. "I think so too."

Hermione rolled her eyes, "You've practiced this Transfiguration so many times, you must be more familiar with it than before."

Ron emphasized: "No, I know myself. If it weren't for Professor McGonagall's guidance, I would never have been able to perform so quickly."

Hermione: "Transfiguration requires a lot of talent. It's impossible for someone to improve so quickly just by one tip, unless that person is just one step away from success."

The three of them were discussing, while Lin Xia and Draco were listening silently. Suddenly, when they passed a certain intersection, Draco spoke up:
"I won't go to the laboratory yet. I need to go to Professor McGonagall's office."

Hermione asked, "Why are you going to the office? Does Professor McGonagall have any instructions?"

Draco shook his head: "No, I asked Professor McGonagall for permission to read the banned book. I have to go through some tests and I will take the test later."

Hermione was suddenly silent.

Ron heard this and winked at Harry secretly.

When they arrived at the laboratory, Hermione and Lin Xia had already entered. Harry was about to go in, but suddenly realized that he had dedicated all his break time to practice.

So Harry had no choice but to walk out of the laboratory obediently and prepare to go to the Quidditch field, where Gryffindor had been practicing recently.

Ron suddenly pulled Harry's arm mysteriously and whispered, "Do you believe that Hermione will come out of the laboratory early?"

Harry looked confused, "Huh?"

Ron: "Hermione and Draco learned the Patronus Charm at the same time, and they were so close academically that they were always trying to catch up with each other.

Since Draco has applied to read the banned book, Hermione will definitely not be left behind. She will definitely go to Professor McGonagall to read the banned book later."

Harry thought about it and felt that what Ron said was very likely.

But no matter what, it is none of their business. They are not excellent students and cannot apply to read banned books.

Harry spoke his mind.

Ron quickly stopped him and said, "How can it be none of our business? Reading a banned book is so dangerous. What if Hermione passes it and encounters danger while reading?
We are not Draco. Draco's family is powerful and pure-blooded. They have many life-saving items, but Hermione can only use the protective items provided by the school, which makes her more vulnerable to danger. "

Harry said honestly: "Ron, your concerns are reasonable, but we can't stop Hermione from wanting to read the banned books. No one can persuade her to do what she decides to do.

Furthermore, not all outstanding students are pure-blooded nobles. The fact that the defensive items provided by the school before did not put the students in danger is enough to prove that those defensive items alone can resist risks. "

Ron murmured to himself, "I know there's no danger, but for some reason, I always feel that it's dangerous to read banned books now.

If it were me, I would stay away from it. No matter how much benefit I was given, I would not go in. "

Harry patted Ron on the shoulder to show his understanding: "I often have some kind of sixth sense, but it turns out that they are basically wrong."

Ron asked puzzledly, "Like what kind of sixth sense is it?"

Harry shrugged. "I always feel like I won't live past tomorrow."

Ron smiled awkwardly, thinking that the joke was not funny at all.
-
Harry said goodbye to Ron and rushed to the Quidditch field, where many of his teammates were already training.

George and Fred were there too, and they winked at Harry, motioning him to go somewhere.

Harry followed immediately.

The wind and snow blew across their clothes, leaving dots of white frost on everyone's eyelashes.

George looked around and kept watch for them, while Fred quickly took out the Marauder's Map from his sleeve and quickly explained:

"We'll need the Marauder's Map next week, so you have to return it to us before then. Good luck."

George said quickly, "Hurry up, Wood has come here. Oh, is he born in the Year of the Dog? You can't leave for even a moment."

Before Harry could say anything, Fred had already stuffed the Marauder's Map into Harry's arms and said, "Happy prank!"

The two left quickly, and George turned around and said, "Good luck!"

As soon as the twins left, Wood's gaze from a distance came straight at Harry. Harry was startled and hurried back to the track to practice.

He whispered, "Thank you for your blessing, and I wish you good luck."

At the same time, in Lin Xia's laboratory.

Lin Xia's experiment finally made a breakthrough. She found one of the most outstanding sets of variables and planned to use this ratio to prepare the Devil's Ivy.

With this ratio, using a magic wand can maximize the effectiveness of the Devil's Ivy, especially for binding magic.

The most important raw material, Devil's Ivy, has been solved, so the next step is to find the wood core that is suitable for Devil's Ivy.

Although it also requires repeated research to find a suitable wood core, compared to how to activate the characteristics of the devil's vine, finding a suitable wood core is actually much easier.

After all, in the wizarding world, apart from the two special wood cores she had researched herself, other wood cores suitable for making wands were almost all of fixed types.

Lin Xia did not plan to research a completely new wooden core, so he only needed to try the previously fixed wooden core materials one by one.

She was about to go out to her exclusive laboratory to share her joy with her friends who were doing experiments and tell them that they could proceed to the next stage of the experiment.

However, at this moment, there was a slight change on the center console in front of her, and a glimpse of an image came over -

Hermione left her own laboratory in the middle of an experiment and walked out of the laboratory door.

Lin Xia couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Although it is not clear why Hermione left halfway, it should not be a big deal.

the other side.

As Ron guessed, Hermione was halfway through the experiment when she finally decided to go to Professor McGonagall's office.

She has a strong desire to win and wants to be the best in everything.

Since Draco wanted to read forbidden books to increase his strength, Hermione wanted to do the same.

Her idea was that if Draco could do something, she could do it too.

The scene flashes back to Draco arriving in Professor McGonagall's office.

McGonagall was already waiting in the office, but no students came to ask her questions about Transfiguration.

As soon as Draco entered, McGonagall waved her wand and sealed off the office.

After that, if a little wizard wanted to come in, he would not be able to open the office door.

She took out the test disk with a serious expression, and at the same time, a flash of light appeared on the floor somewhere in the office.

"Stand in the center of the magic rune array and I will test it for you again," Mag said.

Draco found that this test was more rigorous than the first, but he did it anyway.

After standing in the center, the magic runes began to light up one by one again, finally illuminating Draco's entire body as bright as the sun.

In the bright light, Draco's vision was not impaired. He used the extrasensory spell to look at the test disk in Mag's hand. After a while, the test disk lit up blue, which was normal resistance.

I heard the evil god's whispering in my ears. It was vague at first but became extremely obvious, as if a possessed person was speaking in my ear.

But Draco remained calm and unaffected.

Soon, the test disk lit up red, which was deep resistance.

Last time he stopped at deep resistance and stayed in red.

Many wizards have ordinary resistance to the evil god's whispers. They can resist mild evil god's whispers, but only mild ones.

It is rare among wizards to be able to deeply resist the evil god's whispers, but it is not rare either.

Only complete resistance is considered a rare existence.

The evil god's whispers in Draco's ears became louder and louder, affecting not only his body but also his spirit.

The "Purple Gold Mysterious Record" he was practicing started to work spontaneously. His body felt slightly hot as he tried to resist the invasion of the evil god's whispers from all directions.

Suddenly, the body became hot to a certain degree, then became relaxed and cooled down quickly.

It seemed that it had resisted a wave of attacks and the evil god's mumbling disappeared.

Draco looked up and saw that the test disk in Professor McGonagall's hand had turned yellow.

This is a sign of total resistance!
The magic rune array stopped working, and Mag looked at the test disk in his hand with some shock.

Total resistance!

Hogwarts has produced another talent who is completely resistant to the evil god's whispers!

After Lin Xia, there is a second person with a special physique in the school.

McGonagall looked at Draco, her expression unable to calm down for a long time.

If Draco had been completely resistant from the beginning, she wouldn't have been so shocked, but Draco was originally deeply resistant!

What on earth did he go through that led to his complete resistance?

Some people in the wizarding world have been researching for a long time, trying to strengthen the wizards' physique so that they can be more resistant to the evil god's whispering, but all have failed.

The resistance to the evil god's whispers seems to be an innate talent. Once it is fixed, it can never be improved.

But now, a living example was right in front of her, which made Professor McGonagall use great willpower to restrain herself and not tie Draco up for research.

Draco walked up to the professor and asked, "Professor, what are the test results?"

He had seen the yellow light come on but wasn't sure if it was what he thought it was, so he asked.

Mag took a deep breath and said, "Congratulations, your physique is completely resistant. It will be safer for you to enter the restricted area than before."

She looked at Draco deeply and said meaningfully, "I don't know what method you used to improve your physique, but I believe it has something to do with your family."

Draco's expression changed, but he didn't say anything, just listened silently.

McGonagall reminded him, "This method is very special. The wizarding world doesn't have a related method. Once it gets out, I'm afraid even the Malfoy family may not be able to protect it.

It is best not to tell anyone about your physical changes. I believe your family has already told you the importance of this matter."

Draco:…

However, it does not.

Even his parents didn't know about his resistance to the evil god's whispers. He didn't tell his family the results of the first test.

But Professor McGonagall's words were serious, so Draco nodded solemnly and planned to ask Lin Xia later.

Mag pondered for a while and continued, "Since your physique is so special, it is indeed appropriate for you to read the forbidden book. I have no reason to stop you.

But I still want to remind you that if you encounter something wrong when reading a banned book, get out of it immediately and don’t indulge in it.”

Draco nodded again and responded solemnly: "I value my life, Professor."

Professor McGonagall approved his invitation to read the banned book on the spot, and at Draco's strong request, she also opened a passage for him to enter the restricted area on the spot.

This channel requires the professor's authority to open, so every time a student wants to read a banned book, they actually read it under the accompaniment of a professor.

If something wrong happens, the professor will pull the students out immediately.

This time, the passage for banned books led directly into the office.

McGonagall continued working in the office. There was a crystal ball on the desk, which recorded the scenes of Draco exploring the restricted area.

Not long after Draco entered the restricted area, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

Mag raised his head and looked towards the direction where the sound came from. He waved his hand towards the crystal ball, and suddenly, the clear picture inside became hazy.

"Come in." Mag's voice came.

The door opened and Hermione walked in.

"What's up, Hermione?" McGonagall asked.

Hermione went straight to the point: "Professor, I want to apply to read the banned book. I have submitted the application at the secret key."

McGonagall frowned and said, "Hermione, you have experienced the knowledge game invented by Lin Xia. Hogwarts is rewriting all the courses, and soon every course will be able to use the game.

As long as you have excellent learning ability, you can quickly learn from low-level knowledge to high-level knowledge without taking the risk of reading banned books.

Although the forbidden book can allow you to quickly learn profound knowledge, the risks are also great. "

Hermione hesitated, but soon made up her mind and said, "Professor, I can take the risk of reading banned books. I will learn by self-study, and I also want to learn by reading banned books."

Mag disagreed.

Draco was not a student of her house, so she didn't know much about him.

But Hermione was different.

As her favorite student, she knew very well how strong Hermione's learning ability was. When it came to self-study, almost no one in the entire Gryffindor could compare to her.

Moreover, Hermione had a strong talent for magic. She could master most of the spells just by self-study, so it was very easy to teach her.

McGonagall tried to persuade her a few more times, but Hermione still wanted to read the banned book.

"Excellent students are allowed to read banned books a few times a year, professor. I am just using my privileges reasonably."

McGonagall had no choice but to say with a stern face, "Draco has also applied to read the forbidden book, but he needs to pass my test. Similarly, you also have to pass the test before you can enter the restricted area."

Hermione said firmly, "I can run the test right now."

On the other side, while Hermione was talking to McGonagall, Draco had another adventure in the restricted area. (End of this chapter)
