Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Mikel left with Percy, and as they headed to the Quidditch field, Mikel asked casually:

"President, Ron is my roommate. He often plays with Harry and always has many wonderful ideas in his mind. I just heard him asking you for pet hair. Did he come up with something fun?"

Percy said without hesitation, "Yes, he said that Hermione collected the hair of her pet Crookshanks and knitted some small dolls. He thought it was interesting, so he also wanted to collect Scabbers' hair."

Percy shrugged. "I'm not interested in these sissy activities at all."

Mikel frowned slightly, his intuition told him that Ron's behavior was not simple.

It looks like he will have to go back to the dormitory early tonight.

On the other side, when Lin Xia was about to return to the laboratory, Professor McGonagall found her and asked her to come to the office.

The professor had specifically asked her about Draco.

When Lin Xia found out in the morning that Draco was still in seclusion, she went to the dean to approve Draco's leave and explained Draco's situation to the professors of various subjects.

The other professors only knew that Draco was doing a very important research and was at a critical moment, so he locked himself in the laboratory and refused to come out.

But only the Dean and Professor McGonagall knew that Draco's research was related to the evil god's whispers.

They were both very worried about this.

After Lin Xia finished speaking, the dean suggested, "How about I go to the laboratory to protect Draco, so that if anything unexpected happens, there will be someone to take care of him."

Lin Xia was somewhat tempted, but ultimately refused.

Firstly, she felt that Draco was not that cowardly, and secondly, there were many research inventions hidden in the laboratory that they had not yet announced.

Although she didn't distrust the professor, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

The dean didn't say anything about this, but just asked Lin Xia to inform her immediately if she encountered anything wrong.

Seeing Lin Xia's firm attitude, Professor McGonagall no longer insisted.

This time I found Lin Xia because I wanted to talk to her about this matter in more depth.

Professor McGonagall said seriously, "The risk of research related to the evil god's contamination is extremely high, and he did not dissect the black bugs, but integrated them into the potion.

I'm worried that something might go wrong during this process, so the best way is to send a professor to watch over him. If there is a dangerous situation, the professor can respond as quickly as possible and won't bring danger to Hogwarts."

Lin Xia could understand Mag's anxiety, but there were indeed many things in their laboratory that were inconvenient for them to see.

They have always been imaginative in their experiments and want to discuss everything. There are many experimental materials and topics that are not allowed by Hogwarts.

It has to be said that Hogwarts is too strict in this regard. If they were placed in an outside laboratory, their ideas and collected materials would not be worth mentioning.

Because Hogwarts is a place for teaching and educating, they have to ensure the safety of students to the greatest extent possible. Not only do they impose restrictions on students' research, but they also impose restrictions on professors' research.

Lin Xia didn’t know where the professor went to do his research, but it was rarely done in Hogwarts.

Oh, except Professor Snape.

But he was a potion master and had a high talent for combining and making potions, which was why the school made an exception.

Lin Xia's mind raced, trying to think of a reasonable reason that would allow Professor McGonagall to let go of her anxiety and give Draco some time.

The main reason was that she didn't want the professor to know Draco's process of making the weird medicine potion.

She felt that it didn't matter. To achieve the goal, this means was nothing.

But for Draco, this should be considered a rather shameful thing.

If the professor really stood by his side to protect him and watched the entire process of him making the potion, it is not certain whether he would have a psychological trauma in making potions in the strange medicine science in the future.

At this time, Professor McGonagall slowly spoke: "But the laboratory is a very private place. It gathers all the inspiration of wizards. Some of your research is very important. It is normal that it is not convenient for me to see it."

She changed the subject and said seriously, "So I applied to the school for a piece of self-defense magic item. You bring it to Draco and let him wear it.

Once the concentration of the evil god's whispers is too high, black bugs will suddenly burst out and try to drill into Draco's body. This strange item will protect her."

Mag handed Lin Xia a black bracelet.

When Lin Xia took it, she found that the bracelet was unusually heavy, as if it was made of steel.

"This weight may be a little uncomfortable for the little wizard, but you and Draco have good physical fitness, so you shouldn't have any problem wearing it.

If wearing it on your hand might affect the precision of the experimental operation, you can also wear it around your neck by passing a string through it. "

Lin Xia said without hesitation: "I will give the bracelet to Draco later and tell him to wear it."

Mag didn't say when they should return it, and Lin Xia pretended to have forgotten about it and didn't ask specifically.

She only asked one last question: "Professor, what is the name of this strange object?"

Mag stared at the black bracelet, a complex look flashing in his eyes, as if he saw an old friend through the bracelet.

"It has no name. When the bracelet was made, the maker died. The maker was called Charlie."

"Then call it the Charlie Bracelet," Lin Xia said quickly, "It's a cool name."

A faint smile flashed across Mag's serious face.
-
Lin Xia originally planned to go directly to the laboratory, but suddenly thought of something, turned around and returned to the dormitory first.

The rare item she had obtained before became even more effective after being transformed by the Scales of Destiny.

Lin Xia was wondering whether this Charlie bracelet could also expand its defensive power through the transformation of the scales of fate?
It just so happened that every item placed on the balance could have its true value and use detected by her, so she decided to use the scales of fate to test it first.

After returning to the dormitory, Lin Xia went to the special training room, which was an enclosed and isolated space, and summoned the Scales of Destiny.

A beautiful and delicate bronze shadow appeared in front of her, and in just a few seconds, it turned from virtual to real.

Summoning the Scales of Fate again, Lin Xia examined it carefully. The pattern on the surface had not changed and there was still a gap.

But this time she clearly felt that the balance of fate had become stronger.

This feeling was particularly evident when she took out the black bracelet and placed it on the scales of fate.

This time, there is no need for sacrifice to find out the specific details of this bracelet!
She just put it on the scale, and after a while, she knew the specific effects of the bracelet.

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows slightly, "What kind of ability is this?"

Her words flowed in the air, as if she were talking to herself.

The next second, a thought came from the scales of fate, and it emerged in her mind. [When facing creatures without any consciousness, and the ownerless things that completely submit to you, you can learn their abilities without any sacrifice.]

It is a good thing that the scales of fate become more powerful, but it is not necessarily a good thing if it not only becomes more powerful but also becomes more intelligent.

Lin Xia glanced at the scales of fate coldly and fixed her eyes on the black bracelet on the tray.

She reached out and picked up the black bracelet, and the data appeared in her mind one by one.

Just as Professor McGonagall said, this black bracelet can resist the evil god's whispers and attacks to a certain extent.

The attack of the evil god refers to the attack of the black bugs, because the black bugs are the medium through which the evil god's world erodes the wizarding world.

The Balance of Destiny thoroughly analyzed the black bracelet and figured out the degree of power it could resist, which was approximately equal to the attack of two high-level black wizards. This was its maximum resistance range.

In addition, the Scales of Fate also gave another hidden message, that is, the full effect of the black bracelet will only work on male wizards.

If worn by a female witch, it can only provide half of the defensive effect.

The explanation of the Destiny Scale is:

[This bracelet that can resist the power of evil gods is the painstaking work of a male wizard. After successfully making the bracelet, the wizard died of mental exhaustion and did not have time to modify the bracelet and adjust it to the best state, so it only works for male wizards.]

Lin Xia said calmly: "Start the sacrifice."

"Meow~" The White Fairy revealed her true form, called softly, and jumped to the tray at the other end of the scale of fate in no time.

After a while, the scales made their judgment.

With the strength of Fairy Bai's awakened bloodline, she is already able to deal with three high-level wizards.

If its combat power is regarded as the power to break through the black bracelet, then based on its combat power alone, it is more powerful than the black bracelet.

But the judgment of the scale of fate is not only based on combat power. In addition to combat power, there are other judgments such as potential, bloodline, auxiliary ability, etc. The White Fairy completely crushes the black bracelet.

The next second, the black bracelet shattered into a black mist with a hint of blood in it, as if the wizard's will still remained.

Lin Xia did not absorb this power for her own use, but opened the gas that had been stored in the Scales of Destiny. These mists were the ones she had not used up all at once when sacrificing other items, and were temporarily stored in the Scales.

The balance is divided into many storage areas according to different types of fog, which will be sprayed out when needed.

As for whether Tianping absorbed the mist separately, Lin Xia had no idea.

After all, there is too much fog stored, and if it steals a little bit every day, there is no way to know.

This time, the Scales of Destiny spewed out black mist. Lin Xia chose to "shape a strange object" and reforged Charlie's bracelet, stamping it with the mark of the Scales of Destiny.

The black mist continued to roll, and under the influence of some force, it began to condense into a solid object. After a few minutes, the "Charlie Bracelet" was revealed and took shape again.

Lin Xia took off Charlie's bracelet, observed it carefully, and the data of the bracelet appeared in her mind.

The range that can resist the power of the evil god is still the same as before, but the difference is that not only male wizards can fully exert the power of the bracelet, but female wizards can as well.

The imperfections of the bracelet were made up by the scales of fate.

Lin Xia finally glanced at the Scales of Fate meaningfully, put it back into her body, and then looked at the illusory snail that was monitoring the sealed box of the diary.

Judging from the position of the forbidden box, it has not moved, as if the Voldemort frame inside has been completely broken and can no longer use its power.

But after opening the Snail of Illusion, Lin Xia quickly watched the videos of the past few days and suddenly discovered that every time at noon, the box engraved with the forbidden magic runes would move slightly, as if it was testing something.

The thing trapped in the box was very smart. It knew not to make too much noise, so it only moved for a while and then moved back to its original position very accurately.

At first it only moved a few millimeters, then a few centimeters, and the longest movement was yesterday, which actually moved 50 centimeters out.

Be careful when moving out, and strictly follow the previous movement trajectory when moving back.

Lin Xia found it interesting.

It seems that the date she had agreed with Tom would have to be postponed. She originally thought that the power of the picture frame would only take a month to wear out, but now it seems that they all underestimated this picture frame.

Lin Xia found a bigger box, took out the mithril pen, and drew an even larger forbidden magic rune.

As her knowledge of ancient magic runes improved, she knew more and more magic runes and was able to add her own ideas to the conventional forbidden magic runs.

For example, this time, her idea was very simple.

Not only does it seal the magic power in the box, it also prevents it from absorbing external magic power to replenish itself.

At the same time, once the items inside use their own power, the power will be absorbed by the "devouring magic runes" on the box.

Lin Xia gently turned the mithril pen and whistled in a good mood, wondering if Voldemort would like this gift.

On the other side, on the Quidditch pitch.

The Weasley twins followed Ronan Lynch closely, wherever he went, they followed.

Even when going to the bathroom, they will follow me, what a follower!
Ronan turned around and looked at them, his face grim. "How long are you going to follow me? Is this how Gryffindor asks for help?"

George: "We just happened to need to use the bathroom too. Why, the bathroom is owned by your family and others can't use it?"

Fred: "We just happen to want to take this road too. Why, this road was built by your family, so other little wizards can't come here?"

Ronan's face turned black: "Okay, okay, you guys go ahead, I won't go!"

He walked out of the bathroom quickly, but the next second, the Weasley twins followed him.

Ronan stared at them coldly: "What do you want to do now? Are you not going to get married either?"

George said with a grin, "You guessed it right, but there's no prize!"

Fred also smiled: "How can it be such a coincidence? Are you our brother who was left behind?"

Ronan was speechless. He threw his wizard robe off fiercely and walked out of the school gate.

Once outside, he summoned his broom and flew into the air.

Don’t you want to follow? Then use your flying broom to compete!
This time, the Weasley twins did not follow.

Ronan circled in the air and landed on the Quidditch field. He found Wood and wanted to talk to him about the Weasley twins.

If the twins still have this attitude, he won't be able to continue his research on Gryffindor's formation! (End of this chapter)
