Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 557: The Prosperity of a Village, the Rise and Fall of a Village

Only after Harry opened his mouth did the other young wizards dare to speak.

In their impression, Harry faced the complete form of the evil god, inserted the sword of Gryffindor into the evil god's chest, and then fell into a coma. His injuries were much more serious than Ron's.

Harry was in an extremely weak state, so they didn't want him to be exposed to too much noisy noises when he woke up.

After Harry took the initiative to speak, several young wizards breathed a sigh of relief and dared to ask questions.

"Harry, how are you feeling? Nurse Staf just left. It would be great if you woke up earlier. She could give you a physical examination." Hermione said.

Draco: "Harry, how did you pull the sword of Gryffindor from the Sorting Hat and stab it into the chest of the evil god?
Didn't you feel the pressure from the evil god? I didn't even dare to look directly at him. When I saw him, I felt nauseous and wanted to vomit and faint! "

Lin Xia observed the look on Harry's face and said, "Harry, you look pale. Do you really not need to call a doctor to check?"

Ron, who was lying on another bed, shouted, "Harry, I heard them say you were supposed to Apparate to the Shrieking Shack, but you didn't show up. Where were you Apparated to?"

The friends had too many questions, so Harry answered the simple ones first.

"I didn't know where I was taken to, but the first thing I thought of was the Shrieking Shack. When I opened my eyes again, I was in a room full of books."

"A room full of books?" Hermione asked with interest, "Were you moved to the library?"

Harry shook his head and said with certainty: "It's not a library. It's not as big as a library. It's just a square and somewhat narrow room.

That room is very special. When I keep looking at the books, the wall containing the books will not move forward. But when my eyes fall on other places, the wall of books will quietly move forward.

When I found out, I realized that a lot of space had been taken up and I was afraid that I would be suffocated by all these books, so I had to sit down and read. "

Draco asked, "When you read, the walls of books stop moving?"

Harry nodded, "Yes!"

He recalled the books he had read and said regretfully, "It's a pity that you are not here. I think the books in that room are very interesting. It's a bit like what you call the restricted books area, but it's far less dangerous than reading books in the restricted books area."

If the wizard does not read in that room, the walls will only move forward, forcing him to read.

But reading books in the restricted area could be fatal if you are not careful.

"I absorbed knowledge very quickly from these books. I came across a concept called 'power of the mind'. The book said that most magic comes from the power of the mind, and the power of emotions is also extended from the power of the mind. This power of the mind is related to the spirit..."

Harry has a deeper understanding of the "power of the mind" and focuses on explaining this part of knowledge to his friends.

Hermione was very interested after listening to it.

There is no need to talk about the others, except Ron, they are all academic masters.

Lin Xia smiled and said, "It's a pity that you didn't bring the book with you, otherwise I would really like to take a look. I think what is said in the book is very interesting.

The mind determines the will, the will determines the spirit, and the spirit affects the emotions. These forces seem independent, but in fact they are all interrelated. "

Harry couldn't help but clench his fist and said excitedly: "I knew you would be interested in these contents."

When Lin Xia mentioned bringing the book out, Harry subconsciously searched his wizard robe.

He remembered that he seemed to have put the magic book into his wizard robe, but when he moved, he did not feel the presence of the magic book.

Harry felt a little regretful, that book about space magic was very powerful, he only read it for a while and he felt that his understanding of space magic had improved a lot, it was a pity that he didn't bring it with him.

The loss was only for a moment, and he quickly regained his spirits and talked about the second book.

This book was also the key factor in him being able to pull the Sorting Hat in the headmaster's office to his space.

After listening to Harry's adventures, the young wizards were all amazed and said that they had learned a lot.

Ron said with great envy, "Harry, your adventure was much more fulfilling this time. Unlike me, I was not only poisoned, but also injured myself and missed many exciting scenes."

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he said, "Do you think there is a video camera at the scene to record the battle between the Aurors and the Death Eaters? I can buy a video camera and relive it again."

Hermione poured cold water on him and said, "Don't even think about it. Even if there is a Shadow Ball, it is rare information within the Ministry of Magic and will not be leaked easily.

And there are still many wizards who don't know about the existence of Death Eaters. Haven't you noticed that we have encountered Death Eaters since the first year? Many students in Hogwarts also know about it, not to mention the professors.

But the news has never spread out. The top leaders of the wizarding world should be intentionally suppressing the news about the Death Eaters. They will not disclose it to the public unless it is absolutely necessary. "

Ron moved his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but finally closed his mouth again.

In his heart, he agreed with Hermione's guess that someone was deliberately blocking the news about the Death Eaters!

Harry asked hesitantly, "But the impact of the battle in Hogsmeade was too great, and many wizards were involved. The Ministry of Magic certainly can't keep it secret.

The Death Eaters have reappeared, and they are all here for You-Know-Who.

Many people within the Death Eaters believed that the Dark Lord had already returned and was just accumulating strength in secret.

Their leader is Bellatrix, who may have some private connections with the Dark Lord, so they organized several operations with great fanfare."

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn. They had no room to interfere in such national affairs.

Their personal will will not change the course of history.

The power of an individual is insignificant and can only create a tiny ripple in the progress of the times. Perhaps only a great wizard like Dumbledore can influence the progress.

Lin Xia suddenly clapped her hands gently, and the crisp and loud applause echoed throughout the ward.

She said calmly, "There are big men who will consider this matter. We are just students. We don't need to think too much. We just need to follow Dumbledore's steps."

Lin Xia changed the subject: "Harry, I also want to know how you pulled the sword of Gryffindor out of the Sorting Hat. Can you tell me in detail?"

The young wizard started communicating again.

Among them, Nurse Staf came again, and seeing the little wizards talking so happily, she couldn't help but smile.

"Little wizard, I feel relieved to see that you are in such good spirits. Minerva just sent me a message and asked me how you are doing.

She said she was almost done with her work and would come to St. Mungo's to visit you soon."

Ron couldn't help but shrink his neck when he thought of Professor McGonagall's serious and old-fashioned face.

He had a feeling that the dean would scold him severely.

Ron couldn't help but ask, "Miss Nurse, when the dean comes, can you make my condition sound more serious?"

This request stunned Stave. She asked curiously, "Why? Do you still want to continue living in St. Mungo's? Your injuries have healed and you can be discharged today. All the wizards who come in are eager to leave. Do you still want to stay?"

Ron racked his brains to come up with excuses to get away with it, but Hermione ruthlessly exposed his little thoughts.

"Because he is afraid of our dean and worried that he will be scolded by the dean, so he wants you to lie."

Sistaph giggled and shook her head: "No, little wizard, our duty as nurses is not to lie about the patient's condition. I will tell the truth.

You take Minerva too seriously. She is actually a very soft-hearted person. You have just recovered and are still a little weak. She will not scold you."

Ron just relaxed when Staph said, "Even if I want to scold you, I will do so in a few days."

Ron:…

So there is no way to escape this scolding?

But think about it from another perspective. It’s just being scolded, not having points deducted from the school, so it doesn’t seem unacceptable.

Not long after Nurse Staf left, Professor McGonagall appeared in the ward.

She should have come here through Apparition, anyway, Lin Xia and others did not see her open the door.

This made Lin Xia speculate that this ward was not just a high-level spell for defending against malicious intent, it should also have a spell for directional positioning.

As long as the correct password is spoken, one can enter the ward, regardless of whether one has any ill will towards the people in the ward.

Or perhaps this function is the defect brought about by this curse.

There is no perfect spell in the world. Every high-level spell has a way to break it, even the recognized unforgivable spells.

When Professor McGonagall saw them wake up, the serious expression on her face relaxed slightly, and she rarely showed a kind smile. She said in a very gentle voice:
"Harry, Ron, how are you feeling?"

Ron didn't dare to lie, and said tremblingly: "My body has recovered. Nurse Cetaphil said I can be discharged from the hospital today."

McGonagall said without hesitation, "You should stay at St. Mungo's for one night. What if there are other curses on you that we haven't discovered? It would be better to stay one more night for observation."

On the other side, Harry's voice came: "Dean, I feel much better. I'm just a little tired, but I haven't suffered any other injuries."

Mag said, "You have consumed too much physical strength. You have absorbed the power of the sword of Gryffindor and used the power of the sword to stab the evil god. The power of the sword is like a power transfer station for you.

Those magic powers that do not belong to you will make your body sore and your will tired. I suggest that you stay in St. Mungo's for a week for observation and a more detailed examination. You can be discharged only when there is no problem."

After understanding the conditions of the two patients, Mag looked at Lin Xia and others.

Lin Xia took the initiative to speak: "Professor, I am not injured. I will return to Hogwarts later."

Draco: "I have to go home."

Hermione also went home.

Mag thought for a moment and said, "Draco and Hermione will wait in St. Mungo's first. I will take Lin Xia back, and after that I will take you back."

The three young wizards wanted to say something, but McGonagall interrupted them.

"I have to send you back in person so that I can feel at ease. It's still very chaotic outside."

Before leaving, Lin Xia turned around and looked at Harry, and reminded him bluntly:

"Harry, St. Mungo's is not completely safe. Some patients are very likely Death Eaters in disguise. You must protect yourself. I'm worried that they will come after you."

Harry was a little confused and pointed at himself.

"They came to me? Why did they come to me?"

Hermione: "You haven't realized it yet, you killed a complete evil god, which is more powerful than the advanced infected body!
The Death Eaters had such a hard time creating a high-level infected body, and they still created a waste. They must want to capture you, slice you up and study you to see what is so special about you that can kill the evil god."

McGonagall rarely stopped their speculation. Instead, she said to Harry earnestly, "Harry, you have to be more careful. If you meet a suspicious wizard, don't communicate with him."

Harry nodded in understanding.

Ron patted his chest and vowed, "Don't worry, I will watch over Harry, even if it's only for one day."

Hogwarts has a forbidden spell that prohibits space magic, which even the professor cannot break.

So McGonagall first Apparated Lin Xia to Hogsmeade Village, and then took the professor's special transportation to send her to Hogwarts.

When Lin Xia passed by Hogsmeade, she deliberately glanced around and found that Hogsmeade was still in ruins.

Mags sensed the meaning in Lin Xia's eyes and said in a complicated tone: "The damage caused by the evil god's complete form was too great, and the reconstruction of Hogsmeade Village is a huge project.

Even if the wizards are very efficient, it will take at least a month to restore this place to its previous state. After this battle, it is hard to say whether Hogsmeade Village can return to prosperity. "

Lin Xia didn't know how to comfort the professor.

Because Hogsmeade is close to Hogwarts, it is a place where many senior students come to play on weekends.

Places with many students bring about many business opportunities, and many wizards also come to Hogsmeade to make large purchases.

But this time the damage was too severe, and the news could not be concealed. I am afraid that the news that "Death Eaters have appeared and the Dark Lord is about to return" has already reached the ears of many wizards.

Lin Xia also knew the wizarding world's attitude towards Death Eaters. Every wizard avoided Death Eaters. With so many Death Eaters gathered in Hogsmeade village this time, it was like being entangled by a piece of sticky candy that could not be shaken off.

Out of fear of the Death Eaters, wizards would probably avoid Hogsmeade.

Lin Xia also knew that the school would definitely take measures to prohibit students from going to Hogsmeade village.

Because the school doesn't dare to gamble, will the Death Eaters appear again?

In uncertain situations, a one-size-fits-all approach like “no travel” works well.

While riding on public transportation, Mag criticized Lin Xia again.

As expected, Professor McGonagall’s teachings came late but came true——

"You took too much of a risk this time. I wanted to take you away, but you used Apparition to avoid me. Lin Xia, do you know how dangerous it is to do this? You could die at any time!"

"You should stay in Hogwarts during this winter vacation and don't go anywhere!" (End of this chapter)
