Dumbledore's story silenced the room......

"Professor...... I'm sorry. ”

Brandi looked at his wand and felt a clogging in his throat.

Dumbledore waved his hand, a smile returning to his face. "Don't feel guilty, kid. The Philosopher's Stone is no longer an important thing to Nicol today, and since he has forgotten that unforgettable family relationship, he should no longer let him bear this kind of longing and pain that no longer belongs to him...... If you see him in the future, it's best not to tell him what you saw in the Mirror of Eris, that's my request, okay? ”

Brandi nodded in a dejected mood.

"Very well, then everything will be resolved happily, and I can settle with Nicol with peace of mind." Dumbledore clapped his hands in satisfaction. "So, it's a nice day, and you're not going to go to the hunting ground to see Hagrid?"

Where would Brandi not understand the meaning of his words.

"Okay professor, then I'll go first."

He turned and walked to the door, and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something.

"By the way, Professor, I have one more thing to report to you if it's convenient......"

Dumbledore looked up in surprise, as if he didn't expect Brandi to have something to say.

"Please."

"The day Quirrell broke into the trapdoor...... He actually went to another place. Brandi took a deep breath and tried to suppress the uneasiness in his heart.

At this time, he suddenly had a feeling that once he said this, his future stable life would no longer exist.

But it was something he had already agreed with Hermione...... The treasure trove is too dangerous, and there is no way to explore it smoothly by relying on only a few of their students, and they need a strong helper.

"Well, Parvati and I bumped into him in the Cloak of Invisibility, and we followed him... Went to a secret room... My wand was also broken during that time. ”

Dumbledore's usual calm expression finally began to change, and he stood up from his seat solemnly.

“…… Chamber? Brandy, can you tell me everything you know! This is important! ”

Brandi steadied and began to talk about what he and Hermione had found in Room 13..................

"The Hall of Eternal Life in Albania...... No wonder Voldemort hid in the jungles of Albania after being defeated by Harry. He must have been looking for the building in the painting. Dumbledore paced anxiously behind his desk, "But he didn't choose to recover there, but he had to rely on a mediocre Quirrell to return to Hogwarts to steal the heavily protected Philosopher's Stone, why would he go so far?" ”

"No, no...... We're missing something crucial. ”

Dumbledore muttered something he didn't understand, and he turned to Brandi abruptly.

"Brandy, please take me to that treasure trove, I have some ideas that need to be verified."

"Now?" Brandi was stunned.

"Of course not, it's too conspicuous now...... And I need to be well prepared. Dumbledore said mildly, "Voldemort had to use all his strength to pass the test, and I guess it would take a lot of effort even in my heyday. And you need to wait for your wand to fully recover, don't you? The day after tomorrow, at midnight the day after tomorrow, I'll go to you......"

He reached out and pressed his hand on Brandi's shoulder. Blue pupils met Brandi's eyes.

"I really need to thank you for the trust you have placed in me, Brandi...... Few people would be willing to share low-hanging fruit or power with others, even though it may be fraught with danger. You've done me a great favor...... Or rather, a great favor to the entire British wizarding community. ”

His tone was full of sincerity, and it was an indescribable wave of emotion and shame that welled up in Brandi's heart.

"I can swear that I will not care about any of the treasures in that treasury, and you can rest assured that they will belong to you who will continue to hold up the skies of the wizarding world in England in the future, unless...... You don't want to go on an adventure with a bad old man like me~"

Dumbledore blinked happily.

"Of course not, Professor, it's my pleasure!" Brandi jumped up excitedly. "By the way, Professor, do we need to give you the recipe for that Resurrection Potion? I think you need this ...... more than we do."

Dumbledore shook his head.

"Put it away, Brandy, remember what I said, anything that tries to break the rules comes with a price. Besides—it's rare for me to agree with Nicol on the matter of life and death. You know, we don't even have all the same interests...... Hobbies in every sense of the word. ”

Until he finally left, Brandi didn't understand what Dumbledore meant.

For the next two days, Brandi spent the whole person in a violent euphoria and tension. This is completely understandable for a freshman who has just finished his first year, how many people in this world can have such an honor to have the opportunity to venture with the number one wizard in the United Kingdom?

So, who had been lazy, he became serious for the first time, and began to study all kinds of spells in the empty library that were far beyond the scope of the first year, and because Mrs. Pince had come home to rest, he was much more free—all kinds of spell books were piled up on a long table.

Time was of the essence, and he didn't have time to master any new spells...... He had only written down the essentials of Transfiguration in his notebook, and he had been intrigued by the astonishingly costly, simple and crude way of fighting ever since the frail Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest had easily created a giant clay figurine. And Parvati's use of his immense magic to awaken a giant more than ten feet tall made him yearn for it.

Originally, he couldn't master it properly because of the problem with his wand, but now the situation is different......

In fact, every boy has a violent element hidden in his heart, no matter how gentle he is on the surface - not to mention that Brandi is still a troublemaker who wants to make trouble all day long.

He was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, and he opened his eyes to change the water glass on the side of the bed.

Finally, the long two days slowly slipped away under Brandy's urging second by second.

As midnight fell, he and Dumbledore, who had arrived just in time, made their way to the Great Hall. Brandi opened the door to the treasure trove with ease. The two men came to a room full of murals.

"It's a clever design." Dumbledore looked in amazement at the swirling door of light behind him. "Ancient magic was much stronger than the single spell we have now...... It's just that the magic is too demanding. ”

"But why did the ancient wizards have such great power, shouldn't we be gradually improving?" Brandi said suspiciously.

"Only the people of the time can explain this......

He began to look around the room.

"At present, the public opinion in the wizarding world is that at the peak of the development of magic, there was a turning point, which directly affected the magic foundation of the whole world - you should be able to feel it, the vast majority of people no longer have enough magic in their bodies to try those ancient mysterious and powerful magic. You can think that our wizarding civilization has regressed, of course, so the reason for this phenomenon is still only a mystery...... Hmm, that's the first seal and the fifth seal? ”

Dumbledore began to study the patterns on the grooves of the slate with curiosity.

"Can you read the words on the tablet?"

"Probably not, it's not necessarily text...... I felt a faint power from above, it could be a lost rune or something. Oh, don't care, I guessed too...... Maybe someone will be able to understand it. ”

He seemed satisfied, beckoning Brandi to open the entrance to the altar. Brandi had only listened to Quirrell recite the opening spell once, and it took several attempts to open the hole. The dry well behind him was filled with an unknown liquid as usual, and the box surfaced.

"That's the wake-up potion I told you, Professor. Only first-time visitors can pick it up...... So far, it seems to be able to increase its magic. ”

"Oh, I know this thing. As a principal, the information you have access to will be a little more comprehensive. Dumbledore beckoned, and a vial flew over. It's arguably the greatest potion invention of ancient wizards, along with magic-boosting potions - the latter directly increases the wizard's magical reserves, while the former is a magical talent that fully activates your body. ”

He played around with it for a moment, then cast a spell, and the bottle glowed with a misty glow.

"Now you can take it out, you deserve it, Brandy."

"Huh, Professor? Aren't you going to drink it? ”

Dumbledore looked at him amusedly, "What potential do you think I have in my body at my age?" The sooner you drink this, the better...... You'd better keep it for your buddies to use. ”

Brandi gave Dumbledore a grateful look and put the vial away.

After pausing for a moment in front of the frescoes of the Albanian forest, they carefully burrowed into the mouth of the cave and walked slowly through the dark corridor, where two faint clusters of light lit up from time to time on the side of the wall, illuminating their cautious faces.

They entered the hall, and Brandi saw at a glance the dusty clothes he and Parvati had left in the hall.

It's an invisibility cloak! He rushed over and picked it up, not knowing if it was because Voldemort didn't notice it or because he didn't return to the auditorium from here, and he didn't throw it away.

"Wisdom ......"

Brandi turned his head to find Dumbledore staring at the pedestals of the two gates of light, as if translating the symbols.

"What does that mean?"

"You should be the one to enter, Brandy. If my expectation is correct, if the seven doors are opened at the same time, then it should be arranged according to the meaning of the seven-pointed star, wind, fire, water, earth, light, darkness, and nothingness. On the pedestal of this fan is written in ancient Hebrew, meaning "eagle", and Ravenclaw represents the wind. ”

Brandi nodded as if he didn't understand. "Professor, what about the Fifth Seal? What is it written? ”

Dumbledore looked back, a solemn expression on his face. "Purification...... Brandi, what was once sealed in this, may have extremely powerful power...... In this way, it seems that the reason why Voldemort has become so strong is probably the reason for the fifth seal. ”

"Brandy, be vigilant...... We're going in. ”

He subconsciously put an iron armor spell on himself, Dumbledore nodded approvingly, he took Brandi's arm, and walked in without hesitation-

The square hall was brightly lit, and the brazier in the corner glowed brightly.

Brandi stepped onto a high platform covered with purple carpet, and at the end of it was a gold-cast door. The two sides of the high platform were black and rumbling, and I couldn't see it at a glance, and I didn't know how high it was.

"Professor?" He shouted, but no one answered. Obviously, as with the First Seal, the trials were carried out separately.

So he drew his wand and walked cautiously in the direction of the door, and as soon as he took one foot, the other end of the door changed. A white mist appeared out of thin air, and it solidified into a human form—it was himself!

Brandi opened his mouth wide in surprise and looked in horror at the person in front of him who looked exactly like him.

It suddenly raised its wand, holding it straight to its chest like a sword. And then it stood still......

Brandi had seen this pose before, and it was a long time ago when he was helping Harry and Ron find information about wizarding duels... That's the starting point for a wizard's duel... But? What is this?

The test this time is, duel with yourself?
