Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Ron followed Lin Xia to another space, where there were still many professors, but they did not stand in front of Ron like they did when he first came.

This time, Ron felt a little more relaxed.

He didn't like getting along with the professor, but after frequent contact with him, the awkward feeling gradually decreased and he felt it was okay.

Lin Xia went to Professor Babeling to do the improved experiment as usual, but Ron was stopped by another professor as soon as he came in.

He was a professor of Transfiguration, and he wanted Ron to experience the first-year Transfiguration game.

Ron readily agreed.

He had wanted to work on Transfiguration recently, so this was a good opportunity for him to review his previous knowledge of Transfiguration.

He just couldn't believe that with his third-year level, he couldn't defeat a first-year Transfiguration!

On the other side, Lin Xia is here.

She came to Professor Babel's research site and began to write the content of the game.

Professor Babeling was very busy, so most of the writing work was assigned to her. She only appeared here occasionally to guide Lin Xia's direction.

She did not give any guidance on the content written by Lin Xia. Perhaps in the professor's mind, ancient magic language was still a difficult subject to learn, and it would be good enough as long as a small number of students could understand it.

But Lin Xia still wanted to try more.

She wanted most people to be able to learn Ancient Magic Code. She didn't want to be able to reproduce the glory of Ancient Magic Code in ancient times, but she wanted other wizards not to become illiterate in Ancient Magic Code.

Therefore, the level-breaking game written by Lin Xia is really a fool-proof tutorial. This version is even simpler and easier than the original version, and almost everyone can pass the third level.

From the third level onwards, the difficulty increases.

Of course, the special effects that appear after that, and the scenes that illustrate how powerful the ancient magic text will be when it is studied to a high level, will be more amazing than the last.

Another round of writing, Lin Xia has already written to the twentieth level.

While she was writing, she also reviewed the basic knowledge of ancient magic texts.

Babel suddenly appeared in the office. Lin Xia didn't know when she came or when she left.

Babel looked at what she had written for a while, and suddenly said, "You need to learn more advanced knowledge."

Lin Xia turned to look at the professor.

Babel said calmly: "Although I still think that ancient magic is the domain of geniuses and it is difficult for ordinary wizards to learn, but since we want to popularize it to the public, we can only try to reduce the difficulty of learning.

The basic magic runes in the ancient magic runes are very important, and many subsequent formations are derived from the basic magic runes.

You have a solid foundation in basic magic runes, but you don’t have a deep understanding of advanced knowledge, so there is always something missing in your expanded explanation of basic magic runes.”

Lin Xia thought for a moment and said, "These missing contents should not affect the wizards' learning of basic magic runes."

Babel nodded slightly: "It has no impact, but the writing is not comprehensive enough.

Since this involves the field of ancient magic, and you are my student, you must do your best in everything you do. "

Lin Xia blinked her eyes. It turned out that the professor also had a damn desire to win?
She thought Professor Babel didn't care about the results. After all, she was the one who wrote the papers almost all these days and the professor didn't interfere too much.

Babel thought for a moment and said, "Starting tomorrow, you come here every evening at six o'clock and I will teach you for an hour."

Lin Xia agreed immediately.

In fact, the most convenient place to take classes is to go to the professor’s office, which is a place dedicated to research.

But Lin Xia could guess more or less, because the professor's office was a very special space where time and space were disordered and had no concept.

If you stay inside for an hour, when you come out a whole day may have passed outside, which is not very convenient.

Lin Xia asked: "Professor, what do I need to bring?"

Babel said casually: "No need for anything, just bring your people here."

She thought for a moment, "Can I bring someone else over to listen together?"

Babel smiled softly: "Sure, but I don't care whether others can understand it or not."

She still held the same idea that she didn't have a talent for ancient magic words and she wouldn't be able to learn it no matter how hard she tried.

Just like what she said in class, if you force yourself to listen, you will not understand anything.

Only those who are truly gifted can hear clearly what she is saying.

Now with the promotion of simple magic, many wizards are not quite aware of how important talent is to a wizard.

But in the era when Babel lived, all wizards were selected based on talent from the beginning. Starting from the apprenticeship, talent was a shadow hanging over the minds of all wizards.
-
After Lin Xia left Professor Babeling, she went to see Ron first and found that he was still taking the game test.

Because it was still early, she didn't wait, but just left a message for Ron and left.

On the way to the laboratory, through the large transparent windows outside, you can see Harry running wildly on the Quidditch field in the distance.

The severe cold outside could not stop Gryffindor's determination to win the championship.

Lin Xia suddenly remembered the current College Cup score.

Ever since they were deducted 100 points last time, all the little wizards in Hufflepuff have been mobilized. The little badgers, who had always been peaceful, began to work hard to answer the professor's questions, and their scores increased rapidly.

It so happened that she had already invented the binding wand. She wondered if she could use this opportunity to talk to the dean and see if she could get back 50 points.

If Gryffindor can win the Quidditch championship this time, then Gryffindor's house cup points may really climb to first place.

"Hermione." When Lin Xia returned to the laboratory, she saw Hermione staring at some basic magic runes and talking to herself.

Because she was too focused, she didn't hear Lin Xia calling her.

Lin Xia pushed her gently, "Hermione."

Hermione suddenly came back to her senses. Lin Xia saw her lowered face and couldn't help but frowned slightly -

His lips were pale, his eyes were lifeless, and his whole expression was haggard, as if all his energy had been drained away. He felt like a candle flame that was about to wither in the wind.

She just looked up at Lin Xia, and seeing that she didn't say anything, Hermione lowered her head again and continued to stare at the basic ancient magic runes, muttering to herself again.

Lin Xia listened for a while. She kept reciting the interpretation of the basic ancient magic text over and over again. Her voice was hoarse and it seemed that she had not drunk water for a long time.

Lin Xia shook her head slightly, stretched out her hand to stop the book Hermione was holding, and said seriously: "Hermione, how long have you been studying?"

It took Hermione a while to react, and she said in a daze: "It seems like an hour, no, that's not right, two hours, that's not right, an afternoon..."

Lin Xia sighed: "You have been studying ancient magic text for too long. It is very harmful to your body. This way of learning is not feasible. Come with me."

Hermione was pulled by Lin Xia into her exclusive laboratory.

Hermione searched her memory and found that she had not been to Lin Xia's private laboratory for a long time.

Ever since she became an outstanding student and had her own laboratory, she was busy with her own work every time she did an experiment.

Now when she entered Lin Xia's laboratory, she found that the layout was completely different from before. The moment she entered, she saw the endless starry night sky.

Lin Xia adjusted the laboratory to the style of a dark night galaxy, using a black background to highlight the glowing experimental equipment.

Hermione felt that the world was vast and her eyes were filled with stars.

She murmured to herself, "How beautiful! How did you do that?"

Lin Xia snapped her fingers: "You only need to make some small arrangements, and you can change the scene according to your mood."

The next second, the boundless starry sky suddenly became bright, and the surrounding ground was covered with green grass.

Hermione lifted her foot deliberately. Although she knew it was fake and there was a meadow in front of her, she did not smell the fragrance of the soil, nor did she feel the reality of stepping on the grass.

however……

She still felt shocked.

The depressed mood was relieved by the healing beauty. Hermione felt that her spirit was injected with strength again. She took a deep breath, and her dry spirit had recovered a lot.

When she raised her head again, her lifeless eyes turned into a determined one.

Hermione pulled herself together and said, "Thank you, Linxia, ​​I feel much better."

Lin Xia didn't ask her what happened or why she was in such a bad condition before. She just looked at her with her amber eyes, which seemed to reflect a quiet and peaceful lake.

She said, "Hermione, you still have a long future ahead of you, there's no need to rush."

Hermione said hesitantly, "I'm afraid if I don't work hard enough, I won't be able to keep up with you..."

Lin Xia shook her head: "Don't worry about us, and don't compare yourself with us. Everyone has their strengths. You just need to be yourself.

A healthy sense of crisis can help us make progress together, but please believe us, we don’t want you to hurt your body in this way just to compare with us.”

If Ron were here, he would be very surprised.

Hermione, who used to be as proud as a little princess, actually had a day when she was troubled by not being able to keep up with others.

Hermione took a deep breath and nodded, "Don't worry, I will never hurt my body again!"

Lin Xia suddenly smiled faintly: "Words are not enough, unless you take a day off tonight."

Hermione was stunned, "Ah, vacation? What do you do on vacation?"

Lin Xia: “Vacation means you can’t read books or do homework. You don’t have to do anything and just empty your mind.

You can wander around aimlessly, or sit quietly in one place, look at the scenery outside, and let your mind be at peace. "

Hermione: "But I..."

Lin Xia pushed her out and said, "Go ahead, Hermione. Only when your body has had enough rest can you think long-term."

Hermione unexpectedly went on vacation.
-
"Good evening, Hermione."

"Senior Hermione, it's rare to see you in the common room today. Didn't you go to the laboratory?"

A little wizard in the Gryffindor common room asked curiously.

Hermione recognized the young wizard as a second-year student.

A junior schoolmate once boldly asked her a few questions, which she answered very straightforwardly. From then on, the junior schoolmate called herself her fan and gave her a nickname, "the God of Learning."

Hermione felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't show it on her face: "I took a day off today and didn't go to the lab."

The schoolgirl said enthusiastically: "Are you going to do your homework? I'll give you my seat!"

Hermione shook her head, "No, I've already finished my homework."

Junior: "Then do you want to read a book?"

Hermione said calmly, "No, I'll just find a place to be idle for a while."

She took the initiative to end the topic and walked away.

Hermione noticed that not only was the junior school girl staring at her, but there were also many young wizards around who were staring at her openly or covertly.

In the past, she ignored such looks because she was thinking about other things at that time and didn't care much about other people's looks.

But this time she had nothing to do, instead she was a little concerned about these looks.

She suddenly remembered Ron's constant mumbling: "I envy you for living your life without caring about other people's opinions."

So, her current behavior and mood mean that she cares about what others think?

She suddenly thought of Harry again.

Compared to her and Ron, Harry was the one who lived under the scrutiny of others for a long time.

What kind of pressure is that for Harry?

He has lived under tremendous pressure for more than ten years.

On a night when she stopped thinking and had no other things to do, Hermione suddenly reflected on what she had done before.

The thoughts in her mind were chaotic and complicated, and finally stopped at her accusations against Harry, and her eyes froze slightly.

It seemed like she hadn't talked to Harry for many days, and Harry didn't ask her anything on his own initiative. The reason for this was that she had lost Harry's trust.

After returning from Hogsmeade, she strongly suspected that Harry's abnormality was caused by the influence of the evil god's whispering.

At that time, she just bravely expressed her guess. Afterwards, Lin Xia pointed out that she shouldn't use that tone. She also apologized to Harry later, but her relationship with Harry was still drifting apart.

Hermione wondered what Harry was thinking when she accused him.
How painful would it be to be distrusted by someone you trust?
Hermione thought of many things, including the study materials she had read before and her experiences at Hogwarts, but what appeared most often were her adventures with Harry and Ron.

Even Lin Xia and Draco are not as important as Harry and Ron.

In the boring study life, the friendship with the two of them is like a beautiful flower blooming in the dry desert, which seems to add a touch of color to the boring life.

Thinking of this, Hermione couldn't help but smile. She was wrong. She never thought studying was boring.

On the contrary, she finds learning enjoyable and takes pride in it.

She likes to absorb knowledge freely, and every quiet night, she will have in-depth exchanges with learning.

Suddenly, at a certain moment, Hermione felt her slightly heavy body relax slightly, and the magic power circling around her seemed to increase a lot.

With just a slight wave, a large amount of magic power gathered in her palm.

Hermione had a feeling at this moment that the effects of her spells in the future would be stronger than before.

She didn't know what this situation was, but she felt that no matter how great the difficulties were in the future, they would not be able to defeat her.

Lin Xia was right. She only needed to live for herself from beginning to end. Even if she had to compare herself, she would only compare herself with herself. (End of this chapter)
