Chapter 582 The second generation of the White Devil!
Chapter 582 The second generation of the White Devil!
At the door of the principal's office, Hermione looked at the stone statue in front of her and casually said the password Dumbledore told her.
"Butterbeer."
After hearing the correct command, the stone statue moved out of the way, revealing the door behind it.
Pushing open the slightly heavy door, Hermione walked in and saw Dumbledore, who was looking at the portrait on the wall with his hands behind his back.
"Oh, here comes Miss Granger."
When he heard the door slamming behind him, Dumbledore turned around with a smile on his face. He pointed lightly at Hermione, and then a chair appeared next to it.
"Well, would you like something to drink? Miss Granger didn't attend the Halloween dinner, so she must be hungry. Would you like some dessert?"
Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, which looked a little funny on his face covered with gray beard.
Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Please bring me a cup of black tea and another piece of cake."
Although she had had adventures, Hermione was still human and would be hungry if she didn't eat.
Dumbledore clapped his hands gently, and then a small cake and a cup of steaming black tea appeared in front of Hermione.
"Thank you, Professor."
Hermione was not polite and sat down directly, which was not in line with her previous style.
Dumbledore glanced at Hermione, and then sat on the seat behind the desk.
"Miss Granger, what happened tonight, oh, I think there are some things I need to ask you about."
When Hermione finished eating the cake and started to drink black tea, Dumbledore finally spoke.
Hermione nodded. With her intelligence, she could easily analyze what Dumbledore wanted to ask.
"Professor, if I know something and can answer it, I will tell you the truth."
Hermione also wants to hook up with Dumbledore. After all, based on all the information she has obtained so far, Dumbledore is the top boss in the wizarding world. With his help, her future will be easy.
a lot of.
The Wisdom Skull not only gave her powerful learning ability, but also gave her a firm will and terrifying thinking ability.
Hearing Hermione's answer, Dumbledore raised his eyebrows and nodded.
"Of course, I will not ask questions that may be embarrassing to you, Miss Granger, nor will I delve too deeply into students' little secrets. Miss Granger, just treat it as an old man's curiosity."
Dumbledore refilled Hermione's cup of black tea with a smile, and then his expression turned slightly serious.
"Then, the first thing I want to know is, Miss Granger, whether you met anyone or anything strange tonight."
As the "White Devil" who can be called the ceiling in the wizarding world, Dumbledore can easily conclude from Hermione's performance that Hermione only changed tonight.
In the past, although Hermione was the most "smart" little witch in Gryffindor, she was still within the scope of ordinary people, but her performance tonight was a bit too scary.
Hogwarts has existed for thousands of years, and even Dumbledore still had many things he didn't understand clearly. He needed to know whether the changes in Hermione came from within the school or from outside the school.
Hermione frowned slightly after hearing the first question. She thought for a moment in her mind and found that there were no restrictions on information in the wisdom skull.
In other words, she could tell the story about the Wisdom Skull without causing dissatisfaction between Lu Xiao and Qian Renxue.
"Professor Dumbledore, do you know about the Wisdom Skull?"
Hermione asked with common sense. Although the value of this treasure could be known from the information stored in the Wisdom Skull, its origin and the true identities of Lu Xiao and Qian Renxue were not recorded in it.
"Wisdom Skull?"
Dumbledore fell into deep thought, then shook his head.
He had never heard of such a thing, and it was obviously not a particularly famous prop.
When it comes to skulls, the first thing Dumbledore thinks of is dark magic equipment. After all, only magic equipment related to dark magic will appear in the form of bones.
However, when he mentioned wisdom, he thought of another thing that could bring wisdom to people.
Ravenclaw's diadem!
It was the only relic of Rowena Ravenclaw, the founder of Ravenclaw House.
Rumor has it that she enchanted it to increase the wisdom of the wearer. Maybe it has something to do with the Wisdom Skull in Hermione's mouth?
Buzz!
Dumbledore proposed this hypothesis, and Hermione shook her head. She was certain that the Wisdom Skull would not have the slightest connection with dark magic.
Although, Hermione is also certain that the Wisdom Skull must have an enhanced effect on learning dark magic.
In order to let Dumbledore get more information, Hermione directly controlled her mental power to project the illusion of the skull on her face.
Looking at the light golden "glasses" that completely covered Hermione's upper half, Dumbledore stood up uncontrollably.
The portraits on the wall of the principal's room all covered their eyes, as if frost and snow met the blazing sun, unable to resist at all.
Amidst the noise, a clear cry brought Hermione back to her senses.
A clownish-looking bird landed on her shoulder. Judging from its affectionate appearance, it was obvious that it was very satisfied with Hermione.
"child······"
Dumbledore didn't know what to say. Although he didn't know what the so-called wisdom skull was, the "glasses" on Hermione's face released more power than the Elder Wand he held.
fear!
You know, the Elder Wand in his hand is a powerful wand known as the Deathly Hallows.
"Professor, are you okay?"
Hermione took back the Wisdom Skull. Although she knew that the origin of this soul bone was absolutely extraordinary, Hermione did not expect that it would shock Professor Dumbledore so much.
It seems that the two people who imparted their wisdom skulls are definitely more powerful wizards than Professor Dumbledore!
"Kid, I'm fine."
Dumbledore sighed, he no longer wanted to continue asking.
With this so-called [Wisdom Skull], Hermione's future achievements will definitely not be lower than his, because he can see that this prop's overall improvement to people is definitely more direct and more powerful than the Elder Wand.
comprehensive.
"If you have any questions in the future, you can come to me at any time and I will talk to the other professors."
Dumbledore raised his head, looked at Hermione with a smile, then thought for a moment and said to Hermione.
A hint of surprise flashed in Hermione's eyes, what she wanted was Dumbledore's attitude!
Although she has no friends in Gryffindor, if she can get Dumbledore's approval, her learning progress will definitely be far ahead of her peers!
Because of the blessing of the Wisdom Skull, Hermione now thinks very rationally.
She might be sad because she has no friends, but in Hermione's eyes now, those friends who only know how to clique, exclude others, and laugh all day long are just stumbling blocks that delay her study.
She wants to experience the wonderful life in the magical world, not to make some unnecessary friends.
For her now, professors from various subjects are the most worthy friends to make!
After the conversation, Hermione returned to the Gryffindor common room, while Dumbledore sat in the room for a long time.
During this period, Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape all came to see him, but were sent away casually by Dumbledore.
Late at night, looking at the bright moon outside the window, Dumbledore reached out and touched Phoenix Fawkes beside him.
"Perhaps it would be a better choice not to put all your eggs in one basket."
······
The Gryffindor students obviously felt that something had changed. When they woke up, not only did their house score more points, but there was also a first-year little witch in their house who defeated the troll head-on?
If Professor McGonagall hadn't personally praised it, no one would have believed that Hermione Granger, who was ostracized by everyone and had no friends in the academy, actually defeated an adult troll by herself last night!
Although Harry and Ron's names should also appear in this story, it is obvious that they were not mentioned by Professor McGonagall because they were too reckless and had no contribution.
In the next period of class, all the teachers and classmates were surprised to find that Hermione, who was already smart, seemed to have become smarter?
Not to mention the ability to flexibly control any spell and use it with extremely powerful power, even in the Potions class, Hermione performed flawlessly in front of the extremely picky Potions Professor Snape.
Even Snape could only be angry once or twice, and then he could only lament that he was probably going to be slapped to death on the beach.
Hermione's outstanding performance obviously made many people awed by her. Some Gryffindor students wanted to be friends with Hermione, so that they might also be recognized by their professors.
But except for Harry and Ron, the other students didn't even have a chance to talk to Hermione, and Hermione completely regarded them as nothing.
This is true for all students in Gryffindor House, let alone students from other houses.
After being suppressed by Hermione in class for half a month, the Slantlin snakes, who claimed to be pure-blooded, decided to give Hermione a little color.
It is not convenient for the senior students to take action, because the senior students of Gryffindor are not vegetarians, especially the Weasley brothers, who have caused Slytherin no idea how much he suffered.
Therefore, after planning for a long time, the Slytherin trio headed by Draco Malfoy carried the hopes of Slytherin first-year students and launched a challenge to Hermione.
It's said to be a challenge, but actually it's a provocation.
After a Charms class, Malfoy began to ridicule Hermione in front of everyone, saying that her hair was like tattered seaweed, and also mocked Hermione's teeth.
Although she came from a family of dentists, Hermione still had some problems with her teeth. After hearing Malfoy's provocation, she showed some dissatisfaction.
The Wisdom Skull gave Hermione infinite wisdom and learning ability, but it did not deprive her of her emotions, but she was able to think about problems with more rational logic.
To Hermione, Malfoy's provocation was nothing more than rubbish talk from a child playing house. Although it made her very annoyed, it did not reach the point of tense situation.
Moreover, rather than wasting time here with Malfoy, Hermione wanted to go to Professor McGonagall to discuss Animagus transformation. She had already become quite proficient in the transformation technique taught by Professor McGonagall, and the next step was to prepare.
Animagus exercises.
It is said that except for dark magic, Hermione has almost learned all the magic spells and knowledge in Hogwarts below the fifth grade!
Even, under Dumbledore's guidance, she was able to cast spells silently and even without a wand when using some common spells!
Therefore, in response to Malfoy's provocation, Hermione just rolled her eyes and immediately hugged the book and prepared to leave.
"Hey, you ugly, dirty Mudblood."
When he saw Hermione trying to ignore him and leave, Malfoy was obviously very angry. He felt that the classmates around him were looking at him with ridicule.
If he can't even deal with a Mudblood, why is he still hanging around in Slytherin!
Although he knew that Hermione was very strong, Malfoy didn't think that as a first-year wizard, Hermione could be any stronger.
No matter how familiar you are with spells, you still have to be able to hit people.
As for defeating the troll, Malfoy felt that it was because the troll had no brains, or that Professor Quirrell injured the troll before entering the banquet hall to report, and then was missed by the mudblood.
Therefore, under all kinds of self-guessing and self-identification, Malfoy raised his wand.
【Fainted to the ground】!
When he made the move, Malfoy used the magic spell he learned from the seniors. This move is usually taught by second-year professors. However, because Malfoy is so talented, he only needed about three or four days of training before he could use it.
It's in shape.
A ray of red light swept out of Malfoy's wand, aiming directly at Hermione!
"careful!"
Harry wanted to rush over to help Hermione block the curse, but Hermione just raised her hand and the curse flying in the air was instantly dispelled.
Hermione turned around and looked at Malfoy, who was still holding the wand and wanted to continue attacking, and sighed.
Maybe it was her low-key study in the past half month that made these guys think that she was still so easy to bully?
Hermione raised her hand and pointed her finger gently at Malfoy. She did not hold the wand.
To deal with Malfoy, she believed that a wand was not necessary at all!
【Everything petrified】!
With a simple petrification spell, Malfoy was directly hit before he could react. Then he stood there like a sculpture. No matter how his followers broke the spell, they could not make Malfoy recover.
With Hermione's current spell skills and magic control, it is impossible to lift the petrification curse on Malfoy without the strength of a professor.
After the professors knew the words Malfoy just said, even Professor Snape, the dean of Slytherin, could not bypass Malfoy.
After dealing with Malfoy, Hermione took back her arms and left holding the book as if nothing happened.
Everyone looked at her leaving figure and unknowingly saw her as Dumbledore!
