Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 144 The Greatest White Mage

After hearing Professor McGonagall's words, the people present had different expressions.

It seemed that neither Snape nor Filch had expected that Dumbledore would so easily agree to allow a strange foreign wizard to enter Hogwarts. After all, Dumbledore had just finished speaking in the hall.

Suze let go of Filch, walked straight up the stairs, and raised his eyebrows at Snape when he passed by him.

"Just call me Mag."

Seeing Suze and the strange raccoon coming to her side, McGonagall first introduced herself calmly, then she turned to look at Harry and Ron.

"Okay, there's nothing for you to do here. Go back to the Gryffindor common room and put your things down. If you're quick enough, you might be able to make it to the dinner in the hall."

Upon hearing this, the two little guys, who were already hungry after a day of hard work, looked at each other, then turned around and ran, disappearing around the corner of the castle in the blink of an eye.

Looking at Harry and Ron leaving in a hurry, Suze couldn't help but smile. It reminded him of his school days, what beautiful and youthful years.

Noticing Su Ze's expression, Professor McGonagall's somewhat stiff expression relaxed a little. Although she didn't know the identity of the man in front of her, judging from his performance, he should not be a wizard with ulterior motives.

"Come with me, I will take you to the headmaster's office." Professor McGonagall said lightly.

"Thank you, please."

Su Ze nodded slightly, then turned to greet Rocket Raccoon and followed Professor McGonagall.

The headmaster's office of Hogwarts is located in the heart of Hogwarts Castle. Its entrance is in the center of the eighth floor. The door is blocked by a griffin-like gargoyle statue. Only when the correct password is given will the statue turn aside, revealing the spiral staircase hidden behind it.

The castle was very quiet. I wondered if it was because all the students were gathered in the auditorium, but the whole castle seemed quiet and deserted. Gusts of cold wind blew in my face, and even in summer, I could still feel a chill.

Along the way, Professor McGonagall did not speak actively, perhaps because they were not familiar with each other. She just led the way quietly in front.

Professor McGonagall walked very fast, and Suze could barely keep up with her, so Rocket Raccoon had to jog all the way.

While looking at the novel castle, they moved forward quickly. Not long after, under the guidance of Professor McGonagall, Suze and Rocket stopped at the gargoyle statue at the entrance of the principal's office.

The history of gargoyles can be traced back to a long time ago. They can be found in both China and ancient Egypt, but because of different civilizations, their appearances are completely different.

Griffins like the one at the entrance of the Hogwarts principal's office usually only appear in ancient Greek temples. They are usually made of marble and dedicated to gods headed by Zeus.

In the UK, many people regard gargoyles as ominous creatures, evil beings that bring disaster, but in the eyes of wizards, these things are actually used to warn people that disaster is approaching.

Noticing that Suze's expression was a little unnatural, Rocket Raccoon crossed his arms and smiled. "Why do you seem so nervous all of a sudden?"

"I'm not nervous, I'm just a little excited."

Su Ze turned his head and glanced at Rocket. How could a small animal like it understand his current mood? Su Ze would not tell Rocket that he had dreamed of coming to Hogwarts to study when he was a child.

After a pause, Su Ze continued.

"Dumbledore is known as the most powerful white wizard in the world. He is a very admirable person."

"The most powerful white magician." Rocket Raccoon blinked and asked. "How does it compare to Thanos?"

"The two of them." When Su Ze heard this question, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Judging from the performance in the movie, these two people can never get along with each other.

Thanos uses his own body as his fighting power. His body has extremely high magic resistance, and ordinary spells cannot hurt him at all. Dumbledore has mastered a large number of magics and is proficient in transmission magic such as space displacement. Without the Infinity Stones, Thanos cannot even touch the corner of Dumbledore's clothes.

So in this situation, the two of them are in a state where neither of them can hurt the other.

In a sense, this is similar to Dumbledore's current situation. Although he is very powerful, he still has not found a real way to kill Voldemort.

Without giving an answer, Suze turned and spoke seriously to Rocket Raccoon.

".In short, you just need to know that Dumbledore is the best in this world in terms of both strength and status. Don't be too rude when you go in. Smile and be friendly."

"Laugh? Okay."

Rocket also knew that this world was the territory of this group of wizards, so after hesitating for a moment, he opened his mouth, widened his eyes, and revealed a terrifying smile.

At this moment, Rocket showed off a row of sharp teeth, showing all his facial features. That 'enthusiastic' smile gave people a terrifying feeling that it would bite you in the next second.

Looking at Rocket's terrifying smile, Suze turned his head and looked at Professor McGonagall, then spoke awkwardly.

"Rocket, we are going to see Dumbledore, not to kill Batman. Just smile, don't act like you have mad cow disease." "I am smiling, this is how I look when I smile." Rocket replied with his teeth bared. Obviously, he didn't think there was anything wrong with him.

"Come on, your smile looks like you're going to eat a child." Su Ze rolled his eyes helplessly, then turned to look at Professor McGonagall. "Professor McGonagall, ignore this guy, please let us in."

After hearing what Suze said, Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and turned her gaze away from Rocket Raccoon.

To be honest, having taught at Hogwarts for such a long time, Professor McGonagall is considered experienced and knowledgeable, but she really couldn't understand what these two guys were talking about, what Thanos and Batman.

And the weirdest thing is this little raccoon. At first, Professor McGonagall even thought Rocket was an unregistered Animagus.

Professor McGonagall shook her head with a complicated expression and didn't want to care about these messy things anymore. Anyway, Headmaster Dumbledore wanted to meet these two guys, so it wasn't her turn to have a headache.

Thinking of this, Professor McGonagall turned to look at the gargoyle statue and spoke the password to the headmaster's office.

"Toffee fingers."

As soon as the words fell, the gargoyle statue responded immediately.

With a slight sound of rock friction, the stone statue slowly moved away, and then a staircase leading to the upper level appeared in everyone's sight.

"Okay, go in, Dumbledore is waiting for you upstairs."

Professor McGonagall said as she stepped back slightly, revealing the passage to Suze and Rocket.

After saying thank you, Su Ze left without hesitation and walked quickly up the stairs. Rocket followed immediately, mumbling something and putting on a few more frightening smiles.

The first time Su Ze came to the principal's office, he was quite excited, especially when he saw the portraits of former principals hanging on the walls, and they were looking at him with curious eyes.

The principal's office is generally circular in shape. There are many tall tables with thin legs, on which are placed various strange-looking devices and some well-made silverware. Su Ze noticed that there was an old hat placed on a tall black bookcase.

That thing looked like the Sorting Hat, but it was silent at the moment and looked no different from an ordinary wizard's hat. I didn't know if it was a little tired after the Sorting or for some other reason.

In the center of the office, a tall and burly old man was doing something with his back to Su Ze and Huo Jian. After hearing the sound of Su Ze coming in, he put down what he was holding and turned around slowly.

It was not until this time that Su Ze truly saw this white magician who was hailed as the world's strongest.

The old man wore thin glasses and a long, luxurious green robe embroidered with many stars and moons, with gold threads inlaid in the dense lines. He looked delicate and noble.

Dumbledore's hair and beard were silver-white, and his eyes were blue. Although he was old, his pupils were unusually bright. Su Ze was looking at him, and he was also looking at Su Ze, as if he wanted to see through him.

After a slight pause, Dumbledore brushed off the bread crumbs on his hands and smiled gently.

"I'm sorry for losing my composure. Please forgive me for letting an old man who didn't get to eat dinner secretly fill his stomach. By the way, would you two like to try some? This is my favorite dessert."

As he spoke, Dumbledore picked up the plate on the table behind him. On it was a piece of lava cake covered with chocolate. The mere sight of it made one's mouth water. Although there was some distance between them, Su Ze could still smell the tempting aroma.

"Thank you, but no thanks."

Su Ze hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to refuse.

It's not that he is naturally accustomed to thinking too badly of people, but he still has to be basicly vigilant. God knows whether Old Deng has drugged the cake.

You know, this world really does have "truth serum".

"No, why don't you want the cake?" Rocket's face was frozen with smile, and he was a little dissatisfied when he heard Su Ze's refusal.

But Su Ze ignored it and took two steps forward and came in front of Dumbledore.

"I've heard a lot about you, Headmaster Dumbledore. My name is Suze, and this is Rocket. Please forgive us for using a rather special method to get here. In fact, we came to Hogwarts specifically to find you."

"It has been many years since a stranger has visited Hogwarts, and it is a being with magical powers but no wizarding blood and a weird little raccoon."

Dumbledore smiled and invited Suze and Rocket to sit down with great interest.

"Please take a seat. Just treat this as a normal room. Don't be so nervous."

".I'm fine, not too nervous." Su Ze looked at Rocket.

When Dumbledore heard this, he cast his gaze on the package on Su Ze's back and said something meaningful.

"I mean, you can calm your hammer down. It doesn't look like it's used to the environment here."
