Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 617 Putting on the Sorting Hat and Heading to the Magic Train

Hogwarts is preparing for the magic train.

This time, due to parents' distrust, the school decided to send all available professors to the magic train to oversee the students and prove through their actions that they could protect their safety.

Professor McGonagall, as the Vice-Headmaster of Hogwarts, was originally among the entourage.

But because Mikel hadn't left the restricted area yet, she was considering whether to invite another friend to go on the magic train in her place.

Just then, she received a message from Hagrid, who offered to take Harry and Ron to the Magic Train to help maintain order.

This gave Professor McGonagall another idea.

Because Dumbledore was the headmaster of the school and also the Minister of Magic, she knew more about the inner workings of the Ministry of Magic than other professors at the school.

Following the Battle of Hogsmeade, the Ministry of Magic launched numerous purges against the Death Eaters and intensified its exploration of the world of evil gods.

Currently, the wizarding world enjoys the best level of security in its history.

McGonagall wasn't worried at all that the Death Eaters would suddenly appear and attack the magic train, because the Death Eaters were no longer capable of organizing a terrorist attack.

As the start of the school year approached, the Ministry of Magic intensified its purge, expelling many Death Eaters and dark wizards who had not joined Voldemort's army from Britain.

The school sent professors onto the magic train simply to reassure students and parents.

Since Harry's battle in Hogsmeade has been extensively covered by the media and hailed by many as the "hero who saved the wizarding world," wouldn't it be more useful for Harry to be on this train than for the school to send any number of professors?
As McGonagall thought this, she initially wanted to write down her refusal, but suddenly it turned into agreement.

However, since she cannot go to the train, she will still request the Ministry of Magic to allow a group of Aurors to enter the train.

With both Hogwarts professors and Aurors stationed at the Ministry of Magic, it provides double the sense of security.

“McGirl, if you want to go on the train, I can keep watch at the library for you.”

Inside the library, Professor Flitwick said.

Sprout also said, "My combat strength isn't very strong, so I can stay and keep watch. I'm also very familiar with spatial magic."

McGonagall shook her head: "No need. I'll have Harry go on the train. I believe the parents will trust him more if he's there."

“Send Harry? That’s a good idea,” Flitwick mused.

Sprout was somewhat worried: "But while Harry was receiving treatment at St. Mungo's, Death Eaters were constantly trying to find him, and they even managed to kidnap him."

If Harry appears on the magic train, might he attract the attention of a wizard with ulterior motives? I'm afraid that normally nothing would happen, but Harry's presence could cause trouble.

Snape scoffed, "That's easy, just make him wear the Sorting Hat too."

During the battle at Hogsmeade, many people saw Harry draw the Gryffindor sword from the Sorting Hat and stab the evil god in the chest, thus preventing the disaster.

Therefore, many people in the wizarding world are debating whether Harry destroyed the evil god or whether he used the power of the Gryffindor sword to destroy it.

But in any case, the final result was that Harry defeated the evil god and saved everyone.

Currently, only Harry can pull Gryffindor's sword from the Sorting Hat; this is an undeniable fact.

Just how powerful were Gryffindor, one of the four founders of Hogwarts? How much spiritual power did he keep in his sword? Will this power dissipate over time, or will it remain immortal?

Only by obtaining the Gryffindor sword can one conduct in-depth analysis.

The fact that Harry had the Sorting Hat was enough to deter the other Death Eaters from making any rash moves.

Nobody wants to be the next one to die.

Especially since so many Death Eaters have been captured by the Ministry of Magic, those who remain are either of very important status or are extremely afraid of death and have hidden themselves very well.

Those who weren't afraid of death have long been wiped out by the Aurors.

Snape's suggestion was agreed upon by the other three professors.

McGonagall made the final decision: "Let's do this: have Harry wear the Sorting Hat and patrol the magic train."

After the professors made their decision, McGonagall wrote to Hagrid, who in turn wrote back to Harry and Ron.

A lark tapped on the dormitory window, and Ron curiously opened it. Inside was a letter written by Hagrid.

Because school hasn't officially started yet, the school's control measures are still very strict, making it difficult to get in from outside.

So Hagrid decided not to come in and instead write a letter.

Recently, the school has not been as strict as it used to be with letters and the like.

"Harry, come here quickly! This is Hagrid's reply. He definitely responded to what we asked him about today!"

Inside the warm dormitory, Ron waved to Harry.

Harry, who was lying in bed preparing to rest, got up upon hearing this and went to the window with Ron to read the letter.

Skipping over the complicated pleasantries, they went straight to the last sentence on the envelope—

Professor McGonagall agreed to my request and allowed me to take both of you with me to the magic train.

Ron exclaimed excitedly, "Harry, we can go out tomorrow!"

Although school is busy and fulfilling, it's nice to be able to go out and relax, and relieve some tension.

Harry asked, "I wonder who else we might meet on the magic train? Will Lin Xia be on this train? We could have Hermione, Draco, and the others join the patrol as well."

Ron winked at Harry: "I'm already wondering what Percy's expression will be when he sees me. He'll definitely be patrolling the train with his rack, and when he finds out I'm patrolling with him too, out of his control, his expression will be priceless!"

The two were so excited that they didn't read the letter completely, and thus didn't know that Harry would have to wear something else the next day.

Harry spent the night in anticipation and excitement.

That night, he slept well and had no nightmares.

The next morning, Ron woke up even earlier than him and started packing his things and getting ready.

Harry had no other intentions, but seeing how serious Ron was, he also began to tidy himself up.

Ron said, "I feel that I had a very fulfilling winter break. I have become different from before. I want Lin Xia and others to see my changes. I want to greet the new semester with a brand new look."

"And Percy is in this carriage too. I want him to see a different side of me, that I can live a good life and be even better without them."

Harry felt that Ron might not be very happy at home, otherwise why would he have such a thought?

Ron muttered to himself, "I wonder how long the magic train will stay at King's Cross Station. Can I get off the train and go see my parents? They'll definitely bring Ginny to school..."

Harry said, "If the train arrives early and stays for a long time, we should be able to get off. I'm just not sure if the station for the magic train is open in both directions."

Ron asked, "Have you ever tried going in through that wall and coming out through it?" Harry shook his head. "No, I've only ever used the one-way system. When school starts, I go into the station through the wall, and when I go home for the holidays, I go out of the station through the wall. I don't know if I can go in and out at the same time."

Ron: "I don't know either. We can try it out later. It should be bidirectional."

The two men dressed themselves neatly. Hagrid was already waiting in the Gryffindor common room, wearing a suit and tie, which made him look even more imposing.

"Hagrid!"

Harry and Ron ran over.

"Good morning, you all look great," Hagrid said.

Harry: "There's still some time before the assembly, let's go to the lobby on the first floor and wait."

The three of them walked together to the portrait of the fat lady. Today's password was "flame".

Everyone was in a good mood today. Unlike the usual rush, we took a break and chatted with Mrs. Fat for a bit.

The plump lady in the picture has changed into another outfit, as if she is going to attend an important ball, and she is dressed in jewels.

"Oh, you three look really handsome. Is it a special day today?"

Hagrid replied happily, "We're bringing the little wizard back to school; the new semester is here."

The plump woman's face immediately paled, and she covered her head with her hands, exclaiming in terror:
"Oh, what unfortunate news, I'm going to be busy again!"

Those little wizards were completely unruly, disobedient, unwilling to talk to me, and often forgot their passwords.

Some people come to chat with me in the middle of the night when they can't sleep. They don't need rest, but don't I? Picture frames have rights too!

"I'm going to the ball soon, and I need to tell them this bad news. I can't be the only one sad. All the portraits in Hogwarts don't want to welcome them. Those little wizards are too naughty!"

Ron gave the fat lady a suggestion.

"During the winter break, I stayed at school to participate in an experiment. If all goes well, I should be able to finish the research this semester."

The teaching methods at Hogwarts will undergo a completely new transformation. Once this is researched and developed, you can use this method to explore with the young wizards who want to chat with you late at night. Believe me, those young wizards will probably avoid you.

The plump lady asked curiously, "What kind of experiment is this?"

Ron smiled and said, "I can't say right now; we've all signed confidentiality agreements."

"Alright." The plump lady opened the door for them and blew them a kiss. "Have a happy time picking up your students!"

On the other side, in the restricted book section where Mikel was located.

Just yesterday, he had finished learning all the ultimate magic. Instead of leaving this space, he went to Little Red Flower to start learning the second scripture.

It's strange to say.

It took him several days to walk from the village to the oasis, but it only took him a few hours to walk from the oasis to the village.

This made Mikel somewhat suspicious. Could it be that the appearance of the restricted book area was changing every moment?
With the help of the system, after touching the little red flower, he was pulled into another closed reading area without being disturbed by any student ramblings.

This banned book ranks second in value in this section of banned books, and it is also the most suitable banned book for his constitution.

Mikel opened the book and found it was a manual for using black magic.

"The two books I came across were two different types of books."

The first book is about ultimate magic, exploring how humans can use magic to manipulate the power of nature. The second book is about dark magic, discussing how humans can use magic to control the power of nature.

The two types of energy manifest differently, but both can grant wizards immense power.

Mikel pondered to himself, thinking that these books were all forms of offensive magic.

So, when he enters this forbidden book area, are all the forbidden books he can find related to offensive magic?

The moment he entered the restricted book section, did he automatically decide that he was going to come here?

With this question in mind, Mit continued reading the forbidden book.

With the theoretical foundation laid by the previous explanation of ultimate magic, which is a more profound theory, Mikel found the theories presented in this manual for using black magic to be relatively simpler.

Mikel encountered almost nothing he couldn't understand, and once again he enjoyed an extraordinary reading experience—a sense of sudden enlightenment and the exhilaration of all knowledge opening up to him.

The difficulties I encountered while reading about ultimate magic all vanished in the face of this manual for using dark magic.

Mikel didn't know how long he spent reading about ultimate magic.

But he had a feeling that he could probably read through this manual on black magic in half a day.

"Is this the kind of forbidden book that suits my constitution? The reading experience is completely different, it's amazing!"

When I was reading Ultimate Magic before, I always felt very strained and could only continue reading with the help of the system.

But now, reading this book, I don't need any systematic help; I can understand it all on my own.

As Mikel savored the experience of reading, he marveled at the magic of banned books.

No wonder these forbidden books are haunted by the delirium of evil gods; their powers are just too incredible!

Simply open it, and the knowledge will be imprinted in your mind, allowing you to automatically learn this magic.

If forbidden books are not restricted, then many outstanding magicians can be cultivated just by relying on forbidden books. What chance would the world of evil gods have? It could be conquered in no time.

He suddenly realized that since forbidden books, such an important resource, were restricted by the world of evil gods in the magical world...

In the world of evil gods, are there also some important resources that are restricted by magical power, so that it would be fairer?

But that's not the case; the power of the world of evil gods and the world of magic are not equal.

Having never been to the world of evil gods, he had no idea what that world was like.

Mikel was somewhat excited. If he could find a suitable forbidden book to read in every forbidden book section, and then use the system to block out the interference of the evil god's ramblings.

With just the forbidden books, he could quickly become an excellent wizard!
This temptation is too tempting.

He felt mentally exhausted while reading about ultimate magic.

But as he read the manual for using dark magic, he found himself becoming more and more excited, unable to resist becoming completely absorbed in it.

He didn't notice that the system was constantly issuing warnings to him. (End of Chapter)
