Hogwarts passer-by professor

Chapter 291 The upcoming dance

In the second week of December, while Aisen was still studying the mantra, the deans of each school had already written down the list of students who would not go home for Christmas.

However, what is different from previous years is that except for most of the third-grade wizards and below who cannot attend the Yule Ball, all other students basically choose to stay in school.

After all, the Yule Ball is a rare event for students in grades four and up.And, to some extent, this is an event that professors take very seriously.

Just look at what happened at Hogwarts during this time.

First, the Weasley twins were caught selling canary biscuits and fake wands by Professor McGonagall, and were immediately punished with a week of confinement.

Then, under the command of Professor McGonagall, the faculty and staff arranged extraordinarily gorgeous decorations for the entire castle.Perhaps it was the effect of magic, and the whole castle suddenly brightened up a lot.

Of course, compared with the changes in the entire castle, the most obvious change is that the atmosphere becomes more enthusiastic as Christmas is approaching.

……

Antarctic secret base, in the alchemy laboratory.

Eisen sat in front of the table, with a piece of parchment spread out on it, writing something on it.Next to it is a transparent goblet.

Reaching out and scratching the parchment, Aisen started his actions according to the process.

He stretched out his hands and put his palms towards the goblet, and then a faint golden light emerged from his palms, then twisted and transformed into runes, arranged in some mysterious way, and penetrated into the inner wall of the cup.

Like golden sand, the runes emerged and were inlaid from the bottom of the cup, and then extended outwards and upwards.

After a while, golden runes covered the entire inner wall of the goblet, making the transparent cup appear to be dyed golden from the outside.

However, after the runes connected to a whole body, the golden light that shone on it dimmed, and then fell silent.I saw that the color of the cup returned to its original transparent color.

As soon as his eyes turned, all the contents on the parchment on the side had been seen by Eisen, and were simultaneously imprinted into the memory palace of the dream world.

Reaching out to pick up the cup, Eisen tapped it lightly, and there was a crisp sound on the cup.As soon as his thoughts changed, Eisen's figure disappeared instantly, and the parchment on the table also burned out of thin air and turned into ashes at this moment.

At the same time as the figure disappeared, Eisen had already arrived in his office in Hogwarts Castle.

"Clear water—"

Eisen was planning to cast a water spell and fill the cup with water to try out the results of his research during this period.But suddenly I discovered a small problem and had to stop the idea of ​​casting the spell.

Because he suddenly discovered that if he filled the goblet with water that had solidified the effect of the refilling spell, a problem would probably arise, that is, after the water in the cup was drunk, it would automatically refill!
Some people may wonder, isn’t this in line with Eisen’s purpose?
Yes, that is indeed true!But the problem is, Eisen suddenly thought that once such a cup is filled with a certain drink or liquid, there will be a steady stream of it in the future.

For example, if Eisen fills the cup with water, does that mean that as long as he keeps pouring water, as long as it lasts long enough, he can flood the entire planet?
This—seems a bit outrageous!But there is no way, who allowed magic to exist in this world!

Therefore, Aisen was hesitating whether to fill the cup with some water.After all, Aisen really doesn’t need so much water!Moreover, if the cup is knocked over, the consequences may be quite serious!
What?Can the cup be destroyed directly?Oh, that's all right!
Eisen shook his head and filled the cup directly with the water spell.

There is no difference in the cup filled with water, just like an ordinary goblet.After casting the spell, Eisen didn't pause. He directly raised the cup and drank the water in it.

Then, in the empty goblet, just as Eisen had expected, a stream of clear water instantly appeared out of thin air, and then filled the entire cup.

Judging from the current situation, Aisen's current research on the continuation curse is making good progress.Next, what Aisen has to do is to extract some runes from it and fine-tune and modify the developed contract spell.

Once the effect of "automatic recovery" can be made effective for the contract, then his goal will be achieved.However, Eisen estimates that this step will take some time to complete.

But fortunately, after having the dream world, the last thing Aisen lacks is time.

……

Unknowingly, time is passing slowly, and there is only one week left before the upcoming dance on Christmas.

At noon that day, Eisen left the library and suddenly found that the entire castle had changed to become more and more beautiful.Perhaps in order to leave a deeper impression on the guests of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, Eisen found that the entire castle showed a different style than usual.

Let’s not talk about the beautiful decorations on both sides of the corridors on each floor. Let’s just say that the handrails of the marble stairs are hung with icicles that will never melt.

Those armors standing in the corridors that usually don't attract attention at all seem to have been enchanted. Whenever someone passes by, the armors seem to be wound up, singing Christmas carols in a strange voice: "Oh , come, you pious people..."

"Aisen, are you free?" As soon as he arrived in the auditorium, Aisen heard Professor McGonagall's voice.

"Is there something wrong? Minerva!" Feeling the strong Christmas atmosphere in the auditorium, Eisen looked at the slightly anxious Professor McGonagall in surprise.

"Yes, can you help me see how Hagrid is doing?" Professor McGonagall's tone was a little urgent.

"What happened to Hagrid? Is he injured?" Eisen said, feeling shocked.

Could it be that while he was immersed in his own world and conducting research during this period, he didn't notice that Hagrid had an accident?

"Something happened? No!" A look of confusion flashed across Professor McGonagall's face, and then he continued, "I mean, the Yule Ball is coming soon, and some of the decorations in the auditorium are not yet in place. Those Christmas trees, I don't know what Hagrid has prepared. are you done?"

That's it?Rows of question marks popped up in Eisen's mind, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

He thought Hagrid had been attacked and injured, but it turned out that it was just a matter of setting up the Great Hall.

"Okay, I understand, I'll go to Hagrid's place to see what's going on!" He didn't think much about it, since it was just something he did casually.At that moment, Aisen said, waved his hand, and walked out of the auditorium.

As he walked, Eisen opened his perspective and looked in the direction of Hagrid's hut. He saw a scene that shocked him - Harry, Ron and Hermione, standing on the seaside holding wands. He stood in the corner of Hagrid's hut, staring closely at Hagrid's body.Under his body was a 1.8-meter-long Pipi shrimp—oh, no, it was a fried-tailed snail.

On the other side, a woman wearing a magenta robe, Rita Skeeter, was leaning against the fence of Hagrid's vegetable garden.She was staring unblinkingly at Hagrid and the Blast-Ended Skrewt beneath him. Her eyes kept rolling, as if she was having some bad idea.

Is this an artistic act?Aisen shook his head speechlessly.

"Come here and help, Harry, help me tie its thorns!" Hagrid turned his head to Harry.

Then Harry and Ron picked up the rope buckle from the side and put it on the thorns of the blast-ended snail.Unexpectedly, the blast-ended snail suddenly sprayed out a burst of flames from its tail, startling the two of them.

The flames passed through the fence and scorched some of the pumpkin seedlings in the garden.

After retracting his gaze, Eisen shook his head and walked slowly towards Hagrid's position.

After passing through the foyer and walking down the steps, Aisen's figure gradually appeared in the eyes of several people.

The moment she saw Eisen, Rita Skeeter seemed to have discovered some treasure. She turned her attention away from Hagrid and went directly to meet him.

"Professor Eisen, right!" Rita said with a smile on her face. When she came to Eisen, she already had a roll of parchment and a quill in her hand. "Excuse me, have you read my article about the Triwizard Tournament?" Coverage of the first event competition?”

"Oh, yes, that's right. I'm particularly satisfied with what you said - I'm just a fool who teaches astronomy." Eisen shrugged.
