Katie was discharged from the school hospital the next day. Before she was discharged, the news that she was attacked at the Three Broomsticks also spread throughout the school. Unfortunately, in her memory, she just pushed away
The bathroom door was controlled by someone using the Imperius Curse. The only thing she could remember was that the voice of the person who controlled her was that of a little girl.
"Information with no reference value." This is Ryan's evaluation. "A person who can buy a cursed necklace of 1,500 Galleons can also buy polyjuice potion, and it is difficult to cause the person to turn into a little girl even if he is seen.
others’ suspicion.”
Harry nodded repeatedly after hearing this. He still believed that Malfoy was planning some conspiracy this year, and Ryan's conjecture about the attack perfectly matched his thoughts. "I have already said that Malfoy is now a
Death Eaters."
"But to be honest, we don't need to know who Malfoy is now, but we need to find out what conspiracy he wants to come to school this year." At this point, Ryan looked at Harry. "So, you still had some problems before.
Impulsive. Now Malfoy seems very vigilant. Even if we try hard, it will be difficult to track what he has been doing recently."
When the time came to Monday, Principal Dumbledore asked Harry to continue going to his office for class as usual. In the Herbology class the next day, while everyone was dealing with the knotty vine that was full of knots and could hit people.
At that time, Harry told Ryan and the others the memory that Professor Dumbledore had shown him before.
"Wow, how scary, You-Know-Who as a teenager." Ron said softly, "But I still don't understand why Dumbledore wants you to see this? I mean, it's interesting, but what?
What’s the use?”
"Of course it makes sense," Ryan replied. At this time, he and Hermione had just taken out a grapefruit-sized popping pod from the stump of the knotweed vine. It looked extremely disgusting. But he hadn't finished his answer yet.
At that moment, a voice came from far and near.
"Well done!" Professor Sprout said loudly. She hurried over to praise Ryan and Hermione, and then looked at Harry and his group, "You are lagging behind, and other students have taken action.
Some people have already got a pod!"
Harry and the others could only deal with the plants in front of them. As soon as Ron stretched out his hand, long thorny vines jumped out from the top, swung around in the air, and even hooked his clothes. Harry had planned to take advantage of this opportunity.
Taking this opportunity, he reached out to take out the pods from the tree hole, but as soon as he reached in, his elbow was pinched by the mouth of the tree hole. The two of them could only fight with the plant with all their strength, dragging and twisting the vines to reduce the plant.
Pressure on Harry's hand.
"How did you do it?" In the midst of the commotion, Ron shouted to Ryan and the others who were neatly dressed.
"Read a book. The book "The Encyclopedia of Carnivorous Trees" says that making sounds of a certain frequency can make these trees quiet for a while." Ryan said and knocked a tuning fork with his wand. Ron found that the tuning fork was carved by Ryan.
Several runes. "I prepared it in advance during the preview." After saying that, Ryan and Hermione worked together to take out the sixth pod from the hole of the knotted vine tree that was basically motionless.
"The alchemist is simply cheating." Ron opened the tree hole with helplessness and finally got their first pod. At this time, Ryan and the others had already started to squeeze the juice from the pods, and Hermione's hand appeared.
She held the slender three-edged dagger and quickly pointed it out. Each blow perfectly punctured the pod. Soon, the bowl was filled with small squirming lumps like light green caterpillars.
When returning to the castle after this class, Ron asked Ryan: "I haven't finished what I just said in class. Why do you think it is meaningful for Harry to watch the story of the mysterious man when he was a teenager."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ryan found that Harry had also come over to listen. After looking at Harry and the others, Ryan said seriously: "The mysterious man and Harry are lifelong enemies. If Harry wants to defeat that demon,
You must be fully prepared. A thorough understanding of your opponent is an indispensable part of preparation."
At this point, Ryan looked at Harry who was somewhat disapproving and asked: "Harry, what do you know about the mysterious man? Apart from the fact that he is a powerful black magician and your lifelong enemy. Before Principal Dumbledore gave it to you
Before class, do you know anything else? For example, the mysterious person’s hobbies, habits, tone of voice, etc.”
"Sorry, I don't even understand." After thinking for a while, Harry's face became serious. Because he found that he really knew nothing about Voldemort as Ryan said. After being awakened by Ryan
A sense of shame rushed directly into his mind, making his entire face turn red.
"Harry, are you okay?" Seeing Harry's face turn red as if he had a fever, Ron asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Harry shook his hand. "I just feel that what I have done before is far from enough. Since I want to fight Voldemort, it is definitely not okay to know nothing about him like I do now. I will definitely do it in the future.
I will take Principal Dumbledore's lessons seriously. Voldemort came to kill me directly because he listened to half of the prophecy and did not understand the specific situation. As a result, he was killed by the Death Curse. So now Voldemort has become much more cautious.
, and it is also because of this that he sent the Death Eaters to the Ministry of Magic to snatch the prophecy ball. This shows that he is trying to understand me thoroughly and then kill me. And if I want to defeat him, I must truly understand him. I can't
He now knows me completely, but I know nothing about him."
In the following days, Harry seemed very busy because he needed to integrate his new Gryffindor Quidditch team. Ryan tried to make some new magic props. Although the necklace was stolen by McGonagall last time,
The professor took it away, but on the way to school, Ryan figured out what the instant death curse was with the help of the runes on the box. Now, Ryan is trying to incorporate this magic into some of his offensive alchemy tools.
Go inside.
But the first step is to find some kind of counter-spell, otherwise it will be tragic if friendly forces are accidentally injured. So during this period, while Harry and Ron were sweating on the Quidditch pitch, Ryan and Hermione were doing alchemy experiments together.
The room is busy making defensive props that can resist instant death effects.
On the night before the first game of this semester, Ryan finally made a new defensive prop. Of course, this was inseparable from Hermione's help. After she began to learn to master the rules of death, they began to understand this type of weapon that contained the power of death.
Parsing things has become much simpler than before.
"Is your new work useful?" Hermione stood next to the alchemy table and looked at the bracelet in Ryan's hand suspiciously, because in her eyes, this bracelet looked nothing like the gold defense bracelets Ryan had made before.
the difference.
"Of course it works." Ryan replied proudly, "Although it looks a lot like an old product, I added anti-instant death magic runes inlaid with mithril inside, at least matching the runes of the level on the necklace that day.
No problem. As long as you wear the bracelet, it’s okay even if you have that necklace hanging around your neck.”
"Sounds good." Looking at Ryan, who was showing off like a proud rooster, Hermione teased: "Can you tell me how much this thing costs?"
"Well, the cost price is at least 850 Galleons, because mithril is too expensive, but other materials cannot achieve such good results." This question made Ryan a little embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject. "Of course, this is for our own use in the future.
It is an experimental product. Naturally, I have to choose the best material. I will optimize this thing later."
"That's good." Hermione nodded and said, "By the way, can you give me your pair of Deathclaw puppets?"
Without saying a word, Ryan opened the space door and took out two palm-sized obsidian statues from the grocery store and handed them to Hermione. Then he asked: "I remember that I made you a troll puppet. It was originally for safety.
As a result, we didn’t expect that we grew up so fast. These things are of little use to us now, but I still keep them as a souvenir. By the way, what do you want this thing for?”
"I want to try to use the power of death to reshape these things, maybe they can be reused." Hermione said after taking the puppet. "Okay, we should go have a good dinner. These two
It’s been such a busy day that I haven’t even eaten well.”
