Hogwarts: From Squibs to Greatness

Chapter 35: The Eve of Halloween
Only then did John realize that yesterday was the day Malfoy invited Harry to a duel, and then they found the three-headed dog Fluffy.

Then, Harry became more and more curious about the items guarded by Lu Wei. In the process, he experienced murder, suspicion, challenges and other events, and successfully protected the Philosopher's Stone to prevent Voldemort's ambition to resurrect.

It was this grand appearance, and it was from this moment that the savior officially assumed his destiny, and Voldemort would also set off a bloody storm in the future wizarding world.

Thinking of this, John couldn't say anything, but just persuaded Harry and the others not to be so interested in the fourth floor, and to always pay attention to their own safety.

Then John temporarily stopped paying attention to Harry's situation, but began to concentrate on studying Peeves who was captured by him.

At the same time, I don’t know if Headmaster Dumbledore asked Fat Friar. On the second day after he started to study Peeves, this Hufflepuff ghost came to his door and said that he would help him with his research.

Perhaps this also means surveillance. Compared with Hal's world, the main world's research on the soul can be called a grassroots soldier. Perhaps this is also because most of the research results in this area are black wizards.

Just like the three unforgivable curses, they were all spells invented by former dark wizards after studying the soul.

Of course, John will not conduct research in this area. One is that he has insufficient knowledge reserves, and the other is that it is unnecessary. Compared with the conservativeness of the main world, the world of Hal is more advanced in this regard. The spirit in the powerful amulet is created A complete artificial soul infused into it.

What he did was to figure out the structure of the soul of the main world, and then combine the soul magic of Hal's world to research the magic for Voldemort's soul in the future, in order to ensure the integrity of the Horcrux body and successfully eliminate Voldemort's soul. Soul fragments.

For example, Harry, a child who has lived in misery since he was a child, his mother's love made him survive, but the impermanence of fate made him a Horcrux of Voldemort.

Although Dumbledore is a great wizard, it doesn't mean that every decision he makes is correct.

If Professor McGonagall knew that Dumbledore's plan was to revive Voldemort, and then let Harry take the initiative to die to destroy Voldemort's remnant soul on him, and let the other party destroy the Horcrux himself, they don't know what expression the professor and the others would show.

As one of the most powerful wizards in the world, Dumbledore was even a master of alchemy, but he never thought of researching a way to separate Voldemort's soul fragments, but used this simple rough method.

This is also the point that he has been unable to figure out. Hasn't he thought about the situation where Harry was really taken away by a Killing Curse?Is it because all the prophecies made by his old lover Grindelwald have come true, out of admiration, so he firmly believes in the real prophecies?
John couldn't understand it, so he was going to deal with it in his own way. Anyway, his appearance would inevitably lead to the so-called change of fate, so it's not unacceptable to change so much.

So during the period when John started a rough research with the help of the fat friar, the Weasley twins were the first to discover that Peeves, who often wandered in the castle, was missing, and it took several days for the other little wizards to realize it. I haven't heard anything about Peeves playing tricks on people.

But just when almost the whole school was discussing the matter, and even the Weasley twins started organizing an event called Finding Peeves, Peeves reappeared in the castle.

It's just different from before, the reappeared Peeves seems to have suffered some kind of torture, the whole person looks extremely haggard, even there is no smile on his face, only regret and fear are left.

But Peeves only lasted two days in this state, and soon he started playing tricks on the little wizards again.

But soon the Weasley twins were the first to discover that Peeves would subconsciously avoid the wizards of Hufflepuff, compared to the previous time when Peeves would tease wizards from every house equally.

Even when Peeves met John Williams of Hufflepuff when he was playing a prank, he seemed to see something more terrifying than the bloody Barrow, and he didn't even beg for mercy, and let out a shrill cry Screamed and bang disappeared in front of John.

This made many wizards, including the Weasley twins, speculate whether John had invented some spell against Peeves, and then led Hufflepuff to teach Peeves a hard lesson for a few days.

This has also caused the Hufflepuff students to be a little annoyed these days, because people from other colleges are secretly asking whether the first-year student god John of their college has researched a new spell.

This also made many people in Hufflepuff wonder whether the other party really invented a new spell against Peeves.

Harry, Ron and the others also looked for opportunities to ask John this question, which also let John know why many people looked at him with strange eyes during this time, obviously wanting to ask something, but they dared not go forward.

But John can't explain why this happened because he caught Peeves and studied for several days, right?

He could only smile and say that he didn't know the reason, maybe there was actually a ghost hidden in Hufflepuff that was more powerful than the bloody Barrow, and Peeves met him and was taught a lesson, which led to this situation .

But judging from the expressions on Harry's faces, they didn't believe this set of rhetoric at all.

But soon as time passed, this matter was replaced by another matter, which became a hot topic among young wizards.

That is, Harry Potter, the savior, received a Nimbus 2000. This is the latest flying broom this year, and it immediately attracted the attention of all the little wizards. Everyone wanted to touch this flying broom.

After all, the status of the flying broom in the wizarding world is like a sports car in the Muggle world. If someone gave your classmate a sports car when you were in school, would you take a look at it?
John was also happy to do so, and after a short break, John continued to study alchemy.

This period of time was also due to necessary reasons. John began to communicate with Hagrid frequently by letter. He needed to understand the effects of different magical creature materials in the main world, so that he could integrate the knowledge of refining amulets in Howl's world into alchemy. middle.

But I don't know if Hagrid misunderstood something about the alchemy props that let the Squibs cast spells during the last visit, thinking that John needs all kinds of magical animal materials now.

Now that he has the opportunity to help John in this great cause, the kind and generous Hagrid of course chooses to help.

So every time Hagrid replied, he would send different magical animal materials, one of which was even a horn that a unicorn had voluntarily shed.

You must know that unless the material of the unicorn is handed over by the other party, any material obtained by forcing or killing the unicorn will be attached with a powerful curse.

The horns that voluntarily shed from unicorns on the market are all cut into small pieces and sold in ounces. The value of the whole horn is unimaginable.

Faced with such priceless and precious materials, John wrote a letter saying that he could not use these materials for the time being, indicating that he would ask Hagrid if there was a need, and at the same time asked Tom to go to the United States to order a super-sized alloy magic crossbow as a gift in return. , which made Hagrid's enthusiasm slightly cut down.

Of course, thanks to the materials sent by Hagrid, and the alchemy notes sent to him by Headmaster Dumbledore, John's alchemy has improved by leaps and bounds during this period.

Not only has the original Zosimus & Hermes alchemy in his recording skills changed to a more comprehensive ancient alchemy, but even the wand alchemy pioneered in modern times has also been successfully recorded.

At the same time, based on the principle of Howl's world amulet, combined with the research on Peeves and the fat monk, and the knowledge of Tanya's world, John used alchemy to create several gem amulets.

These talismans are equipped with better defensive spells than the Iron Armor Curse. The spirit inside the talisman will actively absorb the wearer's magic power and release the defensive spells to protect the wearer's safety when danger comes.

John presented these talismans to Hagrid, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville and Dumbledore respectively.

Facing these exquisite alchemy amulets, Hagrid and Harry couldn't wait to put them on after knowing the effect, expressing that they would never take them off.

Dumbledore showed a strong interest in the spirit in the amulet, so Dumbledore asked Fox to send a letter not long after, telling John that he would take him to meet someone at the end of this semester.

John naturally guessed who Dumbledore was going to take him to meet, but that would be next year, and now he was still concentrating on studying and researching.

Time is always passing by inadvertently, and soon it will be the eve of Halloween on October 10
When the little wizards woke up in the morning, they could smell a sweet and tempting smell of roasted pumpkins in the corridor. As early as a month ago, the little wizards saw the ones Hagrid planted, and they were enchanted to become Huge pumpkins.

Even better, Professor Flitwick announced in Charms class that he thought they could start making things fly.

And the little badgers who had learned the floating spell in advance happily used magic to fly the pumpkin that Professor Flitwick made temporarily in class.

And because of John's influence, Hermione and Ron did not have any conflicts over the Levitation Curse. Harry had taught Ron the Levitation Curse a few weeks ago.

It soon came to the afternoon. After finishing the day's lessons, all the little wizards gathered towards the auditorium to participate in the celebration banquet on Halloween tonight.
