Chapter 104: Overgrowth (Asking for Votes and Chasing Reading~)
If it was just because of the Chamber of Secrets, Dumbledore wouldn't have been too worried.
But if the world runes are involved, I'm afraid it's more than that.
Fortunately, after a while, Lu Wu came to the ward, which made the white wizard seem to have eaten a reassuring pill.
With him, things should be much better...
"Albus, is there anything you want me to do?" The mage walked up to the two of them, and as soon as he saw the gray-skinned Colin on the hospital bed mountain, he probably understood the specific situation.
"Someone attacked again?"
Dumbledore nodded: "That's right, I came to you to ask you to help see if I can get rid of the petrification on his body." β
As the two spoke, Professor McGonagall took a few steps back and stood guard outside the door.
Lu Wu touched the little wizard's hard skin and said embarrassedly, "This matter may be a little difficult to do. β
"After all, there is a difference between people and cats."
It's not that he can't really save it, but he has other plans.
After hearing his words, Dumbledore couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he still comforted him: "It's okay, the mandrake on Lady Sprout's side is about to ripen." β
"It's this little guy who looks like he's going to suffer a little more."
Then, he looked at Colin with regret who could only maintain one position on the hospital bed, unable to move.
"Mr. Dean, I think you misunderstood." The mage raised his hand into the air, as if pinching something, and continued, "Just because it's hard doesn't mean it's impossible. β
"It's just that it takes a little bit of time."
As soon as he finished speaking, an emerald green stone appeared on his fingertips.
Looking at the shiny, crystal clear stone with strange words painted on its surface, the White Wizard shouted incredulously, "Runes! β
Harry, who was pretending to be asleep in the other bed, suddenly felt as if a stone was missing from his arms, which made his eyes widen instantly, and his face was full of panic.
Could it be that it was discovered?
Who knows, the mage's voice soon sounded in his head: "Lend me first, and I'll pay you back later." β
Harry, who almost screamed, quickly covered his mouth, not daring to move again.
"Yes, a rune." Lu Wu looked at the greenstone in his hand and explained to the white wizard with a smile: "Overgrowth - resolutely subordinate runes. β
"It just so happens that it can solve the problems we are facing now."
Dumbledore, however, was apprehensive about the runes getting out of control during the day, and couldn't help asking, "Is it really okay to use the power of runes at will?" β
"I'm worried that this will happen like today."
"Don't worry, it won't." Lu Wu deliberately raised his voice, as if he was speaking to Harry.
"Resolute runes are different from other world runes, most of them are not so harmful."
"It has another name, which is eternal life."
"In other words, when a person collects all the runes in this series, he or she will gain eternal life."
"As the most stable rune group, it is resolutely a single rune, which will mainly provide some blessings on the vitality of the host."
"As long as you don't overabsorb the power in it, the runes won't get out of control."
As he spoke, the function of this rune had already appeared in front of Lu Wu's eyes.
γOvergrowthγ
[When a nearby unit dies, your HP will be permanently increased, and the enhancement effect is unlimited.] γ
[Actively use this rune to make the surrounding plants grow quickly.] γ
Dumbledore was a little skeptical at this time, and the scene of the scorching runes raging during the day was still echoing in front of his eyes.
Lu Wu could also tell that the White Wizard was very distrustful of runes now.
So, in order to add credibility, he casually threw [Overgrowth] at Dumbledore.
Seeing this, Dumbledore, who had experienced a hundred battles, immediately shrank his pupils into a point, and instinctively wanted to dodge, but in the end he subconsciously caught the rune and held it carefully in his hand.
And this rune, as the mage said, shows no signs of getting out of control.
Not even the power of that terrifying temptation, if it weren't for the pure life force that could be felt, it would be no different from an ordinary stone.
As the white wizard marveled, the mage's calm voice sounded.
"Albus, I think you've misunderstood something." Lu Wu's two fingers were brought together again, and the rune that was still in Dumbledore's just now was again pinched in his hand again.
"There are two sides to everything, and dangerous runes can be mastered by the right people."
"You can also bring out the positive side of it, like now..."
Then, the mage held the rune tightly in his hand, feeling the majestic vitality contained in it.
Dumbledore seemed convinced by his words, and asked, "So what are we going to do next?" β
"Ripe!" As he spoke, Lu Wu looked at the older cat lady who had been guarding the door, and called, "Professor McGonagall, please come over for a while." β
McGonagall, who heard the voice, walked in from the outside and asked politely, "Professor Ryze, what is the matter with me?" β
Because the mage had just used magic, only Dumbledore and Harry could hear him, and even Colin was shielded from lying on the bed, let alone the older cat lady.
So she didn't know what was going on now, only that she saw the two old men throwing a stone just now.
"Trouble you to bring Mrs. Sprout, Mr. Dean has something to look for her." Lu Wu replied politely.
McGonagall subconsciously turned her gaze to Dumbledore to the side.
After seeing him nod in affirmation, the older cat lady turned around and prepared to find someone.
Before leaving the door, the mage suddenly reminded, "By the way, let her bring two mandrakes, and by the way, everything she needs to prepare the resurrection potion." β
"Butβ" McGonagall hesitated, "I remember that at this time, the mandrake must not be ripe yet." β
The mage stroked his beard, which seemed to have become a little shorter, and said freely, "Don't dwell too much, Minerva. β
"The old mage has his own way."
Dumbledore smiled and nodded, motioning for her to hurry back.
McGonagall, who was not used to the mage calling her name directly, hurriedly left the ward, thinking along the way that the two old men, one white and one purple, must be hiding some secrets.
It wasn't long before McGonagall returned with Sprout out of breath, each with two pots of mandrake in her arms.
I thought it was afraid that it would not be enough, so I deliberately took two more pots.
"Mr. Albus, what are you calling me for so late?" The professor of herbology spoke in a complaining tone.
Dumbledore was indeed a little embarrassed at the thought of disturbing others at such a late hour, so he had to look at the mage next to him.
The mage was not polite to her, and explained the current situation neatly.
After listening to the reason, Sprout asked very skeptically, "Are you sure this is okay?" β
"The herbs that are born are likely to be less effective, you should know this."
"I understand a little." The mage said modestly with his hands behind his back.
