In this Hogwarts without a savior

Chapter 327. 325. Take Back Our Castle (5000 Chapters)

"If she has always had this attitude, of course I won't help her." Jon said casually, "but the crown is not only of special significance to her, it is of special significance to the whole of Hogwarts." It is an important relic, and if I had the chance to get it, I would definitely take it back."

Nick was not surprised by Jon's answer. He knew from the very beginning that Jon is a typical master who takes the soft and does not take the hard. With Ms. Gray's attitude of asking for help, no one would want to help. What about her.

After communicating with Jon about Ms. Gray, Nick left Jon's bedroom.

There are only less than three weeks before the start of school in September and the start of the Triwizard Tournament. During this time, although Jon has completed the second step of making the Animagus potion, he has never idle.

In addition to insisting on using the ring to cast spells on his heart every day when the sun rises and sets, and making necessary preparations, he also continues to go deep into the forbidden area in the second gem, constantly absorbing magical knowledge .

After this trip to the North Pole, the magic power of the stone slab absorbed by the tower has been consumed in sevens and eighty-eight, but with the exhaustion of the magic power, the knowledge about the forbidden books in the gemstone is still retained.

Jon had previously mastered the three Unforgivable Curses by relying on the content of them, combined with Grindelwald's teaching, and now he is familiar with the other two that are not black magic, but are more terrifying than black magic most of the time. The spell was on the mind.

Forgetting Curse and Legilimency.

The effects of these two spells are to modify and read people's thoughts respectively, which are much more sinister than the spells that cause harm to people on the surface.

The reason why Voldemort's rule in England became more and more stable was due to the Forgetting Curse. He was never afraid of the emergence of firm rebels. No matter how strong a person's will is, it cannot compare with absolute magic.

Under the British Ministry of Magic, the department that disgusts wizards of any bloodline is the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters, the Department of Memory Cancellation Command.

Any ideological heresy will eventually face the wizards of this department, and have their ideas and memories tampered with.

Sometimes people's feelings are so simple, all their thoughts are related to their memories, and once the memories are changed, they will naturally change in nature.

The current head of the Office of the Amnesiac Command is a rather well-known guy—Gilderoy Lockhart, a former best-selling author, adventurer, and now a mind-manipulating demon, an important lackey of Voldemort's.

His Oblivion Curse is superb, and almost all diehards will eventually be resolved in his hands, and he is also one of the most valued wizards in the Ministry of Magic by Voldemort.

Of course, Jon still remembered this liar. It has to be said that the current Voldemort really has a pair of eyes that are good at spotting talents. Lockhart probably only has the advantage of the Forgetting Curse, which can be found by him, and He has played such a big role in his career.

This can also show the power of the Forgetting Curse. Jon even felt that if this spell hadn't been solved, it must be more terrifying than the Imperius Curse among the three unforgivable curses.

Then there is Legilimency, which is different from the Forgetting Curse to modify people's memories. This spell can read people's memories, and it can also extract memories from people's brains and change them into real silver lines to let everyone else watch.

In terms of destructive power, these two spells are definitely not comparable to magic like Blasting Curse or Shenfeng Wuying, but their unique functionality is incomparable to any other magic.

Jon felt that he might be able to use these two kinds of magic when he went to Hogwarts Castle for the second time.

Fortunately, the forgetting spell is a relatively versatile spell, and it is not difficult to learn it. The difficulty lies in how to master it later.

The opposite of it is Legilimency. The difficulty of this spell lies in getting started. After getting started, it is easy to master it.

So he put all his energy on the Forgetting Curse at first, and after it was basically usable, he began to shift his focus to Legilimency.

As Jon was studying in depth, Hermione, Ron, and Neville also returned to Hogwarts in the last week of August. Jon didn't know until Neville returned to the dormitory that Mrs. Grey hadn't changed since she hit a wall with him. Instead of leaving, he stayed here all the time, as if he didn't leave after Nick.

In this regard, Jon didn't say anything. Although this lady was a little domineering, she was not a bad person, otherwise she wouldn't be one of Hogwarts' resident ghosts.

And less than three days before the start of their fourth grade in September, Rozier, Durmstrang's vice principal, brought a dozen students and their school's warrior, Diane Rozier, to the Arrived at Hogwarts.

Although four schools participated in the competition called the Triwizard Tournament this time, they were actually divided into two camps.

Regardless of whether it is Jon or Diane who wins the final victory, it means that Dumbledore won the bet and Voldemort lost, so of course there must be a certain amount of communication between the two schools.

Diane was very respectful after seeing Jon, or all Durmstrang students were very respectful after seeing Jon.

"Professor Green."

In the auditorium where they were having lunch, Lupine and Sirius, who were still here to take care of the middle school students during the holidays, looked at the scene where a group of Durmstrang students bowed to Jon with strange expressions.

"I thought that school had other plans, but they really wanted to recruit Jon to be a professor?" Lupine said softly.

Sirius shrugged.

"Honestly, I've never heard of a 14-year-old professor."

"Don't tell me you haven't heard of it, even if you look through the history of magic now, you won't find anyone under the age of 18."

Sirius narrowed his already piercing eyes.

"However, even if they really want Jon to be a professor, it doesn't mean they have no other intentions. I always feel that the headmaster who united with Dumbledore didn't intend to help us."

Lupine said calmly.

"We don't need to worry about this, I think Professor Dumbledore should know better than all of us."

Facing the respectful attitude of the Durmstrang students, Jon actually had some headaches.

He agreed to be a professor of transfiguration because he wanted to learn knowledge from Grindelwald. What's more, so far, he has only held the title of a professor, and he has not actually taught these students a single class.

This kind of respect for no reason made Jon a little unacceptable.

"Actually, you can call me Jon directly, at least you don't need to call me a professor when you are not in class."

However, before the students could answer, Rozier frowned and spoke.

"This is the rule, Professor Green, the rule set by the principal for Durmstrang. Since you have accepted the position of professor, you must abide by its rules while enjoying its convenience."

Jon could only say helplessly about this.

"Well, since this is your rule."

Durmstrang's students came here early, of course, they had their purpose. Rozier had already brought Diane to meet Dumbledore, but obviously they didn't get the result they wanted there.

"We asked Principal Dumbledore what kind of cooperation the two schools should have in the next competition, but he said that we only need to do our best and help each other as much as possible in the competition."

At lunch, Diane was sitting next to Jon. The female prefect of Durmstrang has been promoted to the seventh grade this year, and is three years older than Jon. Girls develop earlier than boys, so that She was a brow taller than Jon.

However, the age difference in appearance did not change the primary and secondary relationship between the two, not only Jon's professorship in Durmstrang, but whoever saw Jon on the night of the warrior selection Even in his performance, he would not be seen as an ordinary fourth grader.

Jon was not surprised by Diane's words. In fact, even now he didn't understand why Dumbledore promised Voldemort to use the Triwizard Tournament to decide the outcome of the war in France.

Maybe it was for fewer casualties, maybe it was enough trust in him, maybe it was not afraid of Voldemort, but Jon felt that these could only be secondary reasons, and the main purpose Dumbledore did not tell others up, including him.

"Just as Professor Dumbledore said." Jon said, "Leaving aside the outcome, ensure your own safety first during the competition. If necessary, we must also put each other's safety first. rather than winning or losing."

The expression on Diane's face was obviously stunned.

Even if she is kind, she is still a student of the Rozier family who has been educated by Grindelwald anyway.

Deeply influenced by the phrase "for the greatest good", although her ideas are not to the extent of doing whatever it takes for the final victory, if she can sacrifice herself to achieve the final success, she thinks it should be the principal of the two schools. The consensus among them is right.

However, whether it was Dumbledore or Jon himself, they obviously didn't realize such a consensus, and they still put personal safety above collective interests, which made Diane somewhat unacceptable.

She even thought about whether Jon and Dumbledore felt that she represented Durmstrang in the competition as a bonus, and it was the same with or without her, so they used such rhetoric to deal with themselves.

Jon didn't think about what Diane was thinking, he was thinking about going to Hogwarts Castle.

The secrets in that castle are definitely more than that simple. When Jon sneaked in last time, he had a clear goal, so he couldn't explore more.

And this Triwizard Tournament will allow him to stay there for at least one school year, which means that he will have a lot of time to study things that he didn't have the energy to explore.

After this period of study, Jon has mastered the Forgetting Curse proficiently, and can barely use Legilimency.

Of course, the Forgetting Curse is easy to master, but to the extent that he can use it, he can only erase the memory in the most brutal way, and cannot do such a fine level of memory modification.

As for the reluctantly used Legilimency, based on the situation he has now, there is actually no way to use it in practice. He can only pull out a tiny silver of thought when people actively and completely let go of their guards in thought. Silk.

But in any case, being able to use it from scratch is the biggest improvement, and if you want to master it later, as long as you continue to practice, there will always be results.

In terms of magic skills, Jon has never relaxed. At the same time, as he grows older, the magic power in his body continues to grow.

The strength of the magic power in Jon's body now is at least three times that of when he was in the first grade. Even without the help of the stored magic power in the second gem of the ring, he can still use the floating spell for a long time.

This also significantly increased the strength of the various spells he used.

And on the second day when Durmstrang's students came to Lyon to join the Hogwarts students, Dumbledore also came to the school from the headquarters of the Wuping Line.

Today is the last day of August, and tomorrow is not only the start of school, but also the official start of the Triwizard Tournament.

That is to say, tomorrow morning, Dumbledore will lead the students from the two schools to the Hogwarts castle.On the night before departure, he called all the students of Hogwarts in advance.

This year's freshman recruitment work has ended during the summer vacation. Compared with previous years, the number of new students this year is far more than before.

Because with the book of admission and the pen of acceptance, not only the hemp students in the UK can be brought to school in advance, but now that the Wuping Line has essentially controlled all the regions under France except Paris, You can take advantage of the trend to recruit French hemp students.

Therefore, there were many freshmen in Jon's fourth grade, even half of the number of the most difficult period in the carriage.

The welcome dinner for new students is also held tonight, because tomorrow is also the day when Hogwarts officially starts classes.

In addition to the usual banquet, Dumbledore announced that he would take ten Hogwarts students to Hogwarts Castle. The students who wanted to go voluntarily signed up, but in the end only students above the third grade were selected.

In this regard, the students were very enthusiastic. Except for some students who were rescued from the castle by Jon and had already had a psychological shadow on that school, almost every eligible student threw his name into the registration form. In a stone basin used.

In the end, McGonagall randomly selected ten of those notes to determine who would go to Hogwarts Castle this time.

Among the students at the same level as Jon, only two girls, Hermione and Lavender, were drawn. When their names were drawn, Lavender was full of joy, while Hermione looked calm. , I don't know what I'm thinking.

Of the Weasley twins, George was the only one whose name was drawn. Fred was annoyed about it, and discussed with George whether they could change their names, but no one could find out anyway, and George poked him in the arm with a fork .

With all the preparations settled, they spent their first night at Hogwarts at the beginning of the school year, and possibly their last.

Then, when it was still daylight the next day, the Durmstrang students led by Rozier and the Hogwarts students led by Dumbledore boarded the Hogwarts car that had been transformed from a ship. carriage.

This was sent together when the students of Durmstrang came. After Jon took the Hogwarts to the ice in the center of the North Pole, it returned to Durmstrang by itself. in the lake.

For Hogwarts students, this carriage is the place they are most familiar with.

When Jon and the others boarded the carriage, Hagrid was already sitting in the cab, just like he used to be.

Compared with the students, Hagrid was more excited, and the flush of excitement could still be clearly seen on most of his face covered by a bushy beard.

Jon didn't enter the carriage with the other students, but sat directly on Hagrid's large chair, just like the first time he came here in the first grade.

"I still remember what I served you at that time, black tea and cream cakes, but you said at the time that you were not hungry, you just drank a cup of black tea."

Hagrid smiled and brought a cup of steaming black tea to Jon. Jon took it from him and watched him make the final preparations before sailing.

Jon held the teacup in his hand and took a sip.

Directly ahead, the thestrals were no longer invisible to his eyes like three years ago, but clearly showed their original faces.

Jon looked at those black horses with bat-like wings, and a subtle smile appeared on his face.

"It's nice to see you guys and it's not sad."

His voice was so soft that even Hagrid, who was sitting beside him, couldn't hear what he was saying.

"What did you say?"

Hagrid raised the question while waving the reins. The next moment, the Thestrals pulling the carriage did not run, but directly spread their wide black wings!

This carriage, which could only turn its wheels on British soil, was pulled into the sky by the Thestrals!
The breeze filtered by the anti-wind spell blew the bangs on Jon's forehead. He hugged the teacup, took another sip of the black tea in it, and replied softly.

"I still remember what we said at that time. Do you know what the sentence that impressed me the most? Hagrid."

"Ok?"

The carriage passed through the low clouds, but the thestrals' wide black wings did not stop, they continued to rise until they completely jumped out of the highest cloud.

Jon squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, the rising sun that was brighter and more dazzling than ever.

"At that time, I asked you, is there a purpose in our journey?
Hagrid said with a smile.

"Ah, I answered you with what Dumbledore said."

Jon stood on the bench, and he supported the high table in front of him that was connected to the entire carriage. The breeze cheered in his ears, the clouds danced under his feet, and the sun illuminated the light of celebration.

"The end won't come to us by itself, but we're so close to it, we're going to take our castle back now."
