Chapter 18: Christmas

The news that Snape had been beaten up by Qi Fang quickly spread around the school, and the students were excited, especially the Gryffindor House students, who didn't have a good opinion of Snape at all.

The next day, when the students went to Potions class, they found that Snape had taken a leave of absence, which further confirmed the authenticity of the news.

Qi Fang used a trace of divine power when he beat people, and it was not so easy to eliminate the scars left by divine power.

It wasn't until a week later that Snape resurfaced, and by this time the injury on his face had recovered, and Qi Fang was a little surprised when he learned the news.

"Snape is indeed a genius in Potions, and he has found a way to pull out the divine power." Qi Fang secretly admired that Snape's talent in Potions was probably higher than that in Dark Arts, as could be seen from Dumbledore's letting Snape teach Magic instead of Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.

Little did he know that Snape's shock was a hundred times stronger than his.

Bruises, bruises, swellings, and even fractures are minor injuries in the wizarding world, and can be recovered in an instant with a simple bottle of healing potion. However, in order to treat the swelling on his face, Snape concocted dozens of healing potions with different effects in a row, and finally found a magic potion that could reduce the swelling. It was the first time he had encountered such a difficult energy, which was even more difficult to deal with than the most evil and weird dark magic, and it made him feel jealous.

Time passed slowly, and the weather became colder and colder.

One morning in mid-December, the sky was covered with goose feathers, Hogwarts Castle was covered in thick snow, the lake in front of the castle had frozen, and many magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest were hiding for the winter, which made the harvest in the Forbidden Forest less and less, and the food became much more monotonous.

Students are eagerly anticipating the Christmas holidays.

Hogwarts House, like most regular schools, has a half-month break at Christmas. Of course, there are some students who don't go home during the holidays, and Hogwarts doesn't force students to leave school.

A week before Christmas, Professor McGonagall began registering students on vacation, with both Harry and Ron on on vacation.

Harry had volunteered to stay at school, and for him, the Gryffindor dorm room was a thousand times warmer than the stairwell at Four Privet Road. Ron, on the other hand, had to stay at school because the Weasleys were going to Romania to visit his brother Charlie, including several of the other Weasleys.

On Christmas Eve, Harry went back to the Gryffindor dormitory early to sleep.

In the middle of the night, the window of the Gryffindor common room suddenly opened, and a figure flashed through the window, landing lightly in the lounge, and the eyes quickly scanned the hall, and finally landed under a small Christmas tree stacked in front of the fireplace, where large and small Christmas presents were stacked.

The figure walked over, flipped through the pile of gifts, and then opened one of the packages and pulled out a silver-white cloak from inside.

"This is the Invisibility Cloak, one of the Three Hallows of Death!"

Qi Fang took the silver-white cloak in his hand and looked through it roughly, but did not find anything special, then put it away, and then took out an invisibility cloak very similar to the Deathly Hallows from the ring and put it in the package.

The Invisibility Cloak is a very precious and rare magical item, but it is not a unique item, and he paid a lot of money for Bo Jin to get one.

There are two theories about the Deathly Hallows, one is more legendary and the most widely circulated in the market, these three Deathly Hallows were the treasures given by the Grim Reaper to the three Peverell brothers. The other theory is more realistic, and some people believe it, they believe that the three Peverell brothers were three very powerful magicians, and that the three Deathly Hallows were made by the three brothers and had great magical powers, and that later generations revered the three brothers and placed the legend of the Grim Reaper on their heads.

Dumbledore was more inclined to the second version.

Qi Fang returned to the dormitory, took out the invisibility cloak again, took it in his hand and studied it carefully for a while, and then released his divine thoughts to scan back and forth a few times, his brows couldn't help frowning, and his face showed a little disappointment.

"Maybe this cloak of invisibility is just an ordinary cloak of invisibility, and most of the legends are not credible." Qi Fang muttered to himself.

"You put it on and try it on." Wan Wan's heart moved, and she said to him.

Since this deathly hallows is a cloak, its effect can only be known when it is worn.

Qi Fang nodded thoughtfully, draped the invisibility cloak on his body, and a different color suddenly flashed in his eyes, and joy floated on his face.

"Your breath is gone!" Wan Wan and Su Quan also noticed the changes and blurted out.

"That's right, the cloak of invisibility not only conceals the figure, but also conceals the breath." Qi Fang said happily, the breath they said meant energy fluctuations, not breathing and heartbeat.

When Qi Fang draped the invisibility cloak on his body, he noticed a strange fluctuation coming out, shielding his breath.

"Perhaps the legend is true, and the Deathly Hallows may indeed be the Deathly Hallows. Even if it has nothing to do with the Grim Reaper, it is also a very powerful and valuable treasure, and with the two characteristics of stealth and concealment alone, it has surpassed most magic weapons. ”

Shielding breath is a very rare attribute, even rarer than invisibility, for the strong, sensing is more important than vision.

"The only two drawbacks are that you can't eliminate the sound and turn the real into the false." Qi Fang thought a little dissatisfied.

The next day, Harry woke up happily looking through his gifts, not realizing that his invisibility cloak had been changed.

During the Christmas break, with only about two dozen students left at the school, Hogwarts suddenly became quiet.

"George, Fred, hello." Qi Fang called the twin brother who had nothing to do to the office.

"Mr. Qi Fang, what are you looking for us?" George asked.

"There's something I'd like to ask you two for help with." Qi Fangdao.

"What's the matter?" George Road.

"No problem, for the sake of you teaching Snape a lesson, we will definitely help with anything." Without waiting for Qi Fang to speak, Fred continued.

"As long as we can help." George added.

"It's not hard, it's very interesting." Qi Fang opened the cabinet next to him, took out two broomsticks from it and placed them on the table.

"Oh, Halo 2000!" The twins exclaimed at the same time that for the people of his Weasley family, the Halo 2000 was already a very precious luxury.

"I'd like to ask you to help transform it into a broomstick that can fly without magic." Qi Fangdao. "If you can do it, I can give you two broomsticks in return."

"It's a really interesting idea."

"No problem, we'll leave this matter to us."

The twin brothers' eyes lit up, they were not people who kept their jobs, and what Qi Fang said was exactly what they wanted, even if they were not paid, they would agree.
