Chapter 635 Stay away from Dumbledore, he will make people unhappy
"What's wrong, is someone injured?" Seeing that Dumbledore took her and Professor Snape to the school hospital without saying a word, Professor McGonagall had an unpleasant premonition in her heart.
Snape, who was two steps behind Professor McGonagall, also frowned. He and Professor McGonagall had the same view. He knew in his heart that the reason why Dumbledore called him here was most likely to use his talent in potions. That way.
If so, it means that the person injured by the curse is hopeless.
The situation was very difficult. Snape's brows almost knitted together.
"Who is the injured?" He looked at the haggard silver-haired old man in front of him with indifferent eyes. He was shocked to find that Dumbledore looked very old and haggard at this time.
It can be seen that Dumbledore was greatly affected by the injury.
Facing the questions from his two subordinates, Dumbledore did not answer directly, but opened the door of the ward. In the ward, Madam Pomfrey was kneeling in front of a bed, holding an empty bowl in her hand.
McGonagall and Snape looked past Madam Pomfrey and landed on the person lying on the hospital bed. They recognized the patient at once. She was Hermione Granger from Ravenclaw House.
At this time, Hermione was lying on the hospital bed, her face pale. She used to be lively and enthusiastic, but now she was as quiet as a piece of porcelain, a piece of porcelain that had been broken and then glued back together.
Professor McGonagall covered her mouth: "How could it be, it's Miss Granger!"
Snape stood on the edge, his face dull, showing no joy or sorrow.
"Voldemort just came over. During the battle, Miss Granger blocked a spell for me...Severus, come and take a look..." Dumbledore simply told McGonagall what happened.
And brought Snape to Hermione's bedside and asked him to check on Hermione's condition.
"Professor Dumbledore." Seeing Dumbledore coming with Snape, Madam Pomfrey did not expel them from the ward as usual, but stood up uneasily.
In the past, the reason why she was confident was that she had the confidence to cure patients, but today she does not have this confidence.
"I just gave her some nutritional supplements and a nerve-stabilizing potion. Miss Granger will regain consciousness after a while, but..."
Madam Pomfrey did not continue, but everyone understood what she meant.
"You have done a good job, Poppy." Dumbledore comforted her, "You have nothing to blame yourself for. The person who should blame yourself the most here is me. Go out and give us some time."
Madam Pomfrey said nothing more, just bowed lightly and left the ward quietly.
After she walked out of the ward, Snape took the initiative to walk to Hermione's bedside and observed Hermione's condition.
"It's a very powerful curse that hit here." Dumbledore lifted Hermione's quilt and pointed out her injured area to Snape.
Snape looked at it for a while and then took out his wand. He put the wand above Hermione's collarbone, and a trace of magic flashed across the tip of the wand. There was a small cut on Hermione's collarbone, and a few drops of blood rolled out.
came out.
These blood beads were collected by Snape before they could slip from his collarbone.
He first observed the color of the blood, then tasted the smell and taste of the blood, and fell into thinking...
Professor McGonagall looked at all this worriedly.
If things go wrong, she doesn't know how to explain it to Miss Granger's family, nor does she know how to face Yodel's kid in the future.
Snape didn't think for long, and he already had a rough idea of the state of the toxins in Hermione's body.
"It's very difficult." This was Snape's judgment.
"If you hadn't stopped the spread of the curse in time, and if the curse hadn't been greatly weakened before it hit her, we wouldn't need to think about how to cure Miss Granger now."
"I know this very well, so what can you do?" Dumbledore urged Snape. He knows Granger's condition better than anyone else, but what he needs now is a cure!
Some doctors can make people die clearly, and some doctors can make people live in confusion. Dumbledore chose the latter because he felt that knowing the "cause" of Hermione's death was meaningless.
"No." Snape replied coldly.
"Perhaps I can prepare a potion to alleviate the onset of the curse. If combined with your spell, Miss Granger can live like a healthy person for a while."
Hearing Snape say this, Dumbledore's eyes suddenly darkened. Professor McGonagall pursed her lips tightly, and finally squeezed out a few words between her teeth: "For a while... how long is it?"
?”
Snape did not answer the question directly.
He began to explain to Professor McGonagall the characteristics of Hermione's curse.
"This is a curse that will accelerate the loss of vitality. Every time you use magic power, the curse will become deeper and stronger. If the human body is compared to a pool, vitality is the water in the pool. The vitality of ordinary people will change over time.
And 'evaporation', this curse is like opening a hole at the bottom of a pond, and the water of life will flow out continuously from the hole until it dries up."
Before Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall could speak, Snape continued: "There are only two ways to save her life: either plug the hole, or fill the pool with water faster - but my ability is limited, really.
This hole cannot be plugged. As for adding water, that is not my area of expertise."
Professor McGonagall was silent.
"Perhaps the only option for this girl is reincarnation. Let's replace the pool with a good one." Snape glanced at Hermione with some sympathy. She was like a flower that had not bloomed in its blooming season and was about to wither at the most beautiful moment.
Already.
Looking at Hermione's appearance, Snape sighed in an extremely rare way. He glanced at Dumbledore with extremely complicated eyes. At this moment, he only felt that people who want to live a stable life should stay away from Dumbledore.
It will make people unhappy!
"Seventeen years old is probably the limit of what I can do." Snape gave Hermione his verdict. In his opinion, even if Hermione tried his best, her end would be coming when she becomes an adult.
Already.
Professor McGonagall felt that the corners of her eyes were moist. She really couldn't bear to see these things.
Dumbledore also felt powerless. Snape's words almost sentenced Hermione to death. If he wanted her to survive, he would have to let Hermione become a Horcrux, right? But how could a child like her go?
What about making Horcruxes?
But there seems to be a way... Snape's "water injection" method gave Dumbledore an inspiration.
