Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 174 Since you can’t learn to die, learn to die! (4K please read)
Fairy Bai returned to the laboratory and pressed the cat's paw at the door. The door of the laboratory opened automatically and it jumped into Lin Xia's arms.

Lin Xia stroked its soft hair, and memory fragments flashed through her mind, knowing that the White Fairy had given Harry the magnetic wand.

As a key figure in Mikel's diary, Lin Xia decided to invest in Harry when he made the request.

Therefore, the magnetic wand she gave Harry was of high-quality quality and could exert 0.6 times the power of the custom-made wand.

Lin Xia walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside the window.

There are fewer and fewer young wizards still staying in Hogwarts. There are only a few wizards on the road, and she also saw some college professors.

Students are on summer break, and professors are on summer break as well.

Lin Xia returned to the long table in the laboratory and opened a box that had been locked. The open diary was placed in the box.

Tom: [My friend, you appeared so early this time, I thought you would disappear for a while]
Lin Xia: [Yes, you guessed it right, I will disappear for a while. Hogwarts has assigned me a mission. I need to be away for two months, so I am thinking about how to accommodate you]
Tom: [You can give me to a friend you trust. If it is your friend, I believe there will be no problem communicating with her]
Lin Xia: [There are a few friends who have a good relationship with me and do experiments with me every day, but unfortunately, they also need to go out with me]
Lin Xia: [So, Tom, what is your choice? ]
Tom: [Lin Xia, I think you want to keep me locked up. I have no other choice]
Lin Xia: [No, you have other choices]
She said straight to the point: "Perhaps you feel that I am not helpful to you, so you want to escape from me and find the next target."

Tom, don’t deny it in a hurry. Before the magic text was banned, you tried to escape from me again and again.]
The diary was silent for a while, and then a line of writing slowly appeared.

For example, Tom in the diary is the young Voldemort. Even if he is given a memory ball, he will know everything that happens next, including all the decisions he will make in the future.

Not to mention that he could handle them all, but he had no problem handling most of them, so Lin Xia didn't let this part of his studies occupy the summer vacation.

Originally, she completed the task during the winter vacation last semester, which was regarded as passing the assessment.

In other words, how to use the obtained memories and whether they are useful or not depends entirely on the incomplete angry soul fragment.

There is another assessment for combatants [seekers].

But this is difficult to do. The split soul usually contains different memory fragments. As long as the soul in a container is damaged, I think the memory cannot be restored]
Lin Xia asked thoughtfully: [What if the memory ball is prepared in advance? As long as there is a memory ball, no matter which soul fragment it is, after seeing all the memories, it can be regarded as recovering its memory, right? ]
Tom: [No, no, no, the memory in the memory ball is different from the memory in person.

Originally, her summer plan was to preview all the second-grade courses in advance, but she had already studied these courses on her own when Tom helped her make up for the OWLs.

For the remaining small part, she can wait until the second grade starts to come back for tutoring.

Lin Xia: [Why do you say that? Although you are the spirit of the diary, you have your own thoughts. You are still an independent spirit, which is different from those portraits]
Tom: [But I feel that becoming a soul is incomplete. This is not the eternal life I want]
Lin Xia: [No, this is the eternal life you want, possessing various strange objects and then achieving the effect of eternal life]
Tom: [Okay, let’s put it another way, being imprisoned in a place is not the eternal life I imagined]
Lin Xia: [Very good, let me put it another way. If the soul is broken into pieces and placed in different containers, as long as one of the containers is not damaged, the soul can exist. Do you think this form can be regarded as eternal life? ? ]
Tom: [Hmm... Where did I hear this method? Let me think about it, let me recall, oh, I heard about it from a high-end black magic book]
After a short silence, Tom replied:
[If all souls can be recycled, even if they are damaged, or if a single soul fragment can carry all the consciousness of the subject, then this can be regarded as eternal life.

But what Tom did next when he was young was based on his temperament when he was young.

Who on earth had the courage to split up his soul and put it into a container when he was young?
If I remember correctly, he must be the person in the diary.

Lin Xia: [But I think there must be a way to get the best of both worlds. Think about it again.

[Lin Xia, I am the spirit of the diary, and exploration is my instinct. Maybe my exploration caused you to misunderstand]
Lin Xia: [So I don’t blame you, my friend. After all, compared to you, my behavior is even worse. I directly restricted you with the forbidden magic text]
Tom: […]
Lin Xia suddenly admitted it frankly, but Tom didn't know what to say.

Also, because I have to go out on a mission, I need to shut you down temporarily. You can take this time to think about what is the true meaning of eternal life? ]
After Lin Xia finished speaking, she closed the diary.

Do you think this form of memory recovery is really memory recovery? Each soul fragment contains different pieces of information, and the situation after recovering the memory is also different. ]
Lin Xia probably understood.

When the semester starts next semester, if there is no accident, [Seeker]'s database will be open to her, but something unexpected happened midway.

Deny yourself?

Maybe he didn't approve of some of Voldemort's actions when he was thirty or forty years old.

For example, if there is a soul fragment that dominates anger, even if it sees the memory ball and knows more memories, the nature of dominating anger will not change.

Lin Xia: [So Tom, have you thought about the true meaning of eternal life? ]
Tom: [I still feel that becoming a diary spirit is not the eternal life I want]
Lin Xia couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Lin Xia took out the outstanding student badge and the secret key given by the college, embedded the badge in it, and opened the information about the [Knowledge Seekers] within the college.

According to the dean, during the last vote for confirmation, Snape proposed at the faculty meeting that research talents like them needed to be assessed several times.

Research talents are different from combat talents.

The research type is relatively rare, and one may not be released every few years, but the combat type is basically available every year.

Snape believed that Lin Xia and Draco had unparalleled talent in research. This talent was enough to obliterate their talent in combat, so they could not pass the test with just one test.

They must be assessed multiple times to confirm that their combat talents are also very strong and they have the ability to protect themselves in missions before the [Seeker] database can be opened.

Although the dean did not vote against this view at the time, she actually acquiesced, so her combat talents were still being assessed.

Lin Xia opens the secret key in order to read banned books online.

With her authority, she can receive a restricted banned book every two months and read it online for a month.

Since becoming an outstanding student, she has kept her credits and has accumulated several quotas.

Lin Xia planned to find a book that suits her first and read it online. If she benefited a lot from reading it, it would not be too late to look for a physical book to read.

In a quiet laboratory.

She browsed various books methodically.

Even if the banned book is very special, there is no reason why no one should read a page.

When selecting forbidden books, ten pages will be freely available for wizards to read.

Lin Xia studied the rules carefully and found that the number of open pages is quite interesting. It does not necessarily open from page 1 to page 10, but you can choose the number of pages.

For example, the first three pages are a table of contents, and if you find the entry you like on page 72 based on the table of contents, you can ask the secret key to open the content on page 72 first.

Relying on this rule of arbitrarily opening 10 pages, Lin Xia quickly picked out the books he wanted.

She took out her magic clock and looked at it. It was noon.

The whole school is on holiday today, and only limited lunches are served in the school auditorium. If you really want to have a good meal, you can go directly to the kitchen and order from the house elf. Lin Xia was immersed in the ocean of knowledge. She neither went to the auditorium nor to the kitchen to take out enough food from the ring to fill her stomach.

She ate something casually, felt like she wasn't hungry anymore, and continued reading.

If Draco was next to Lin Xia, he would definitely come over to see what book she was reading——

"On the method of coordinating potions and magic power in the body"

"High-End Magic: Magical Growth, Magical Boiling, Magical Explosion"

"How the Body Refining Wizard Can Go Further"

……

Lin Xia fell into a state of concentration and did not notice the passage of time.

After she finally knocked down the extremely obscure content of the first book, she looked up and found that the moon had already hung on the treetops outside the window.

Lin Xia took out the magic clock and looked at it. The time had reached 10:30 pm. It was a holiday today, and the dormitory access bell did not ring.

She thought about it and realized that there were still several banned books to read, and after that she would have to read physical books. She would have to leave for France in half a month, and she didn't have much time left.

So Lin Xia went to the practice room and used the magic power gathered in the laboratory for a short practice.

This is not for strength improvement, but purely to restore energy.

She still had a very important matter that she had not yet solved, so she did not open up the practice of foundation building.

Once she resolves the major issue on her mind, the Foundation Establishment Realm will be worry-free from now on!
The next day, Lin Xia lay on the sofa and woke up in the bright sunshine.

Just yesterday, she stayed up all night to finish the second banned book.

She has not experienced the feeling of reading physical books, but she has benefited a lot from just reading the online version of banned books.

Many of the doubts about the nature of magic that usually bothered her were answered by the banned book.

Some of these banned books are very deep, but some are very broad.

Depth allows her to decipher the essence faster, while breadth allows her to draw parallels and brainstorm ideas.

Lin Xia washed up, walked out of the laboratory and went to the kitchen, asking the house elf to prepare some food for her.

A house elf came out, wearing a crisp suit and looking like a steward.

"Dear Ms. Lin Xia, we got a summer stay list from the professor of the college. We saw that you were also on the list, but I didn't see you dining in the auditorium yesterday. Is it because the food we made didn't suit your appetite? "

Lin Xia shook his head and said with a smile: "No, what you made is very suitable for me. I just made some suggestions for some foods, but you reproduced them perfectly and improved them very well.

Yesterday I was doing research in the laboratory. Because time was tight, I had to hurry up, so I hurriedly used some in the laboratory. "

The steward-looking house elf's brows widened, "So that's it, Ms. Lin Xia, please let us provide food delivery service. As long as you don't go to the auditorium to eat, we will deliver food to your laboratory."

Lin Xia was a little surprised, "Will this trouble you too much?"

"No, it is an honor for our house elves to serve Hufflepuff!"

"Our pleasure!" The other busy house elves suddenly stopped what they were doing and said in unison.

Lin Xia fully felt the enthusiasm of the house elf and said with a smile: "Okay."

She turned around to leave, but suddenly thought of something, turned around again and said, "By the way, please help me make a list."

The elf who looked like a steward asked curiously: "List?"

Lin Xia winked at them and winked mischievously, "Yeah, although it's a little early to tell, I want to prepare Christmas gifts for you in advance. Remember to tell me the gifts you like!"

After she left, all the house elves gathered together to praise Lin Xia.

"Lin Xia is kind-hearted. She really deserves to be from Hufflepuff House. She is as kind as Ms. Hufflepuff!"

"Oh, Lin Xia is the most beautiful little witch I have ever seen!"

"We must serve her well and not let her down!"

……

On the other side, Draco, Hermione, Ron and Harry, who had just gone on summer vacation, had another experience.

Draco, like Lin Xia, has no time to spare even on vacation.

He doesn't get a day off at all.

Yes, not even a day!

Just after leaving Hogwarts, he was apparated to another place by his father, where he not only had to undergo the heir course, but also received another special physical training.

Draco felt that this special physical training was specifically for combatants, as if it was to train him into the most elite warrior.

He felt that his father had become more and more anxious recently and wanted to give him everything.

If he hadn't broken through to the foundation building stage, Draco even doubted whether he could survive this devil's course and training.

But Draco probably didn't expect that it was precisely because Lucius found that no matter how he was treated, he would be able to be full of energy again the next day, so he increased the intensity again and again.

Since you can’t learn to die, then learn to die!
