As the "Labyrinth Torture" time ended, the girls finally began to face another problem.

As Elena said, if they didn't step up, they might have been late for the first day of school!

"Wait, wait for me...... You two—"

Hermione gasped for breath as she ran up the spiraling staircase of Elena and Hannah towards the hallway of the Gryffindor House common room, where she was no match for the other two little witches in terms of physical strength.

Even if Hermione Granger deliberately strengthened some physical exercises during the summer vacation, it was still a big gap.

Compared to Hannah and Elena, two humanoid monsters who sprinted for short distances and couldn't even breathe, Hermione's physique was still a little weaker, and after running for a few hundred meters in a row, she was already feeling a little dizzy.

Thankfully, however, they finally reached the hallway on the seventh floor of the castle.

As the voices grew clearer, the three of them nimbly descended the moving staircase (this time, Elena finally didn't sink into the groove of Gryffindor) and finally came to a somewhat unfamiliar sixth floor platform.

There are a hundred and forty-two stairs at Hogwarts, which is the number recorded in previous editions of Hogwarts, a school history, but no wizard has ever actually walked all the stairs - in this magical castle where everything is constantly moving, many of the stairs will only be moved when they are really needed.

At least as far as Hermione Granger remembers, they hadn't been to the sixth-floor hallway for the past year.

On the platform, most of the second-year students had already gathered here in advance, which was a relatively rare thing in Hogwarts, because under normal circumstances, everyone should have found a place in the classroom at this time.

"Did something happen? Why are you all blocked at the door......"

Elena frowned and coughed lightly.

Eleven or twelve years old is the time when most children's bodies begin to develop.

Compared to the little quails last year, most of the students in her grade had grown at least a head taller, and when the students of the four houses gathered together, they immediately blocked her view so tightly that she could not see anything.

As for standing on tiptoe, or jumping to see what's going on behind her, it couldn't have happened to her!

"Big sister, you're here? Look, there's something strange here—"

Hearing Elena's voice, the little wizards stopped discussing and turned their heads to look.

In the midst of the crowd, Ron Weasley scratched at his hair in some distress and pointed to the side of the wall. There is a quaint carved stone door with a brand new brass plaque inlaid on it - "Mathematics and Science Classroom"

"Sorry, I didn't find anything out of the ordinary. ”

Elena raised her brow and walked through the crowd, taking a closer look at the closed stone door in front of her.

Unlike other schools in the non-wizarding world, many of the doors in Hogwarts have a certain magical power, and they won't open if you don't use them the right way, or if you politely ask them to open them, or poke them in the right place, and some of them aren't even real doors, like the one they just walked through......

And the door to the temple of mathematics that appeared in front of them now was obviously such a special door.

"There is no threshold for knowledge, please come in," Elena read softly, "isn't that already obvious?"

"But—" Ron Weasley scratched his cheek and glanced at the hard stone door.

"Platform nine and three-quarters, remember?"

As if to answer the question in his mind, Elena smiled and whispered.

As she spoke, Elena glanced at the stone door that exuded familiar magic fluctuations, and a curious look flashed in her eyes, she didn't expect that there was also this magic in Hogwarts - this was not a simple illusion, but a profound spatial magic.

Or, when you think about it, it doesn't seem like a surprise in the first place.

If nothing else, the British Ministry of Magic probably borrowed from the magic platform that already existed in Hogwarts Castle when it built the magic platform at King's Cross Station.

Only the slight difference is that the selection criteria for this door are not wizards, but ......

"Don't worry, just walk over with a strong will......"

Elena chuckled, and walked briskly towards the seemingly hard stone wall.

Hesitation in the face of the unknown is the biggest barrier, which is why Dumbledore suggested using this as a classroom.

If a young wizard approached the stone door at an extremely slow pace, it would become incredibly hard, no different in texture or hardness from the castle walls, but if he chose to ignore the existence of the door and strode forward in a way that overcame his fears, the door would lead to another dimension like Platform 93/4.

At least that's how Albus Dumbledore explained it last night.

Needless to say, it may be safer to choose to have another student try it out earlier.

But as the head of Hogwarts and Moonlight, Elena still can't do the same behavior as some villains after all, and on the other hand, the reason why the classmates behind her trust her is also this.

Whether it's the "Moonlight Ceremony" at school, the journey of Quidditch Freshmen, the daily study and training in the castle, and the rebellion against bullying from the upperclass...... Elena had always been the arrow and light source at the front of the crowd.

Of course, if you accidentally hit the wall, that's okay - it's a big deal, just tear down the broken door!

Elena calmly watched the stone gate getting closer and closer, and her steps became more and more brisk.

This stone door looks quite sturdy, and I don't know how many times it can withstand the justice from Her Majesty the Empress?If that spicy old radish intends to trick her in such details, then she will naturally gladly open a new world line.

It's just that nothing happened...... She didn't feel any hindrance......

It's a big, very familiar classroom.

In fact, this place did not look like the usual rooms in Hogwarts Castle, but more like the lecture hall in Elena's impression of the university, and even gave her the illusion that she seemed to have traveled back to the original world.

Nearly eighty desks are neatly arranged in the vast space, and on each desk is a brand new workbook, a box of pencils, a stack of scratch paper, and two textbooks. At the front of the classroom are four giant blackboards that can be moved up and down, and several chalk boxes are placed on the podium in the center of the classroom, and the sunlight shines through the windows and spills into the classroom, filling the air with the brightness of summer.

And on the edge of the podium, a somewhat balding Mr. Alexey was bowing his head, carefully checking the lesson plan.

"Guys, find a place to sit down, we're going to get ready for class. ”

Hearing the movement next to the classroom, the middle-aged man raised his head and a warm smile appeared on his face.

With Elena's appearance, one after another little wizards appeared in the classroom, most of them looked around with a hint of excitement and curiosity on their faces - this ingenious way of entering the classroom made many young wizards have a sense of ritual as if they have stepped into a new world.

Looking at the little children gathered at the side of the classroom, Alexei took a deep breath.

He couldn't help but think back to the good old days when he had taught math at the university, only this time, the students were younger and had more potential than the previous ones — and at the same time, more troublesome.

"All seats are the same, one copy per person. ”

Alexey cleared his throat and pointed to the empty desks in the classroom.

Since he had just taken over the job from his teacher a few days ago, he didn't have time to study how to use the teaching materials purchased by the students, so in a hurry, he could only deal with it a little in the same way he taught his daughter before.

After all, according to Miss Delisa Apocalis, most of the young wizards have almost no mathematical foundation.

Well, by the way, that Miss Destiny seems to be called Elena Kaslana now?

Alexei waited for the students to sit in their seats nervously, and looked thoughtfully at the three little witches in front of the podium, if he guessed correctly, they were the out-of-spec students.

Of course, Hannah, Elena, and Hermione were seated at the same row of tables.

"First of all, welcome to the math and science classroom," Alexey stood up and walked to the podium, "you can call me Mr. Alexey." Yes, as Professor Dumbledore said, I'm not a wizard, so this lesson won't cover anything directly related to magic, but we'll focus on philosophical questions about nature. ”

With the middle-aged man's opening remarks, there was a small commotion in the classroom.

Even though they had learned about this decision from Professor Dumbledore before, when they actually entered the classroom, most of the young wizards still had some ridiculous resistance in their hearts.

As if not noticing the commotion in the classroom, Alexei paused before continuing.

"In this world, neither wizards nor Muggles can see the whole world, hear the right voices, and even have less reliable experience...... However, we still have the means to recognize and explore the truth of this world, which is also one of the very few trustworthy things for human civilization in the face of the unknown - mathematics. ”
