"Why, Potter, you can't even handle a single Granger? It seems that the aura of the savior doesn't seem to work that well either. ”

Malfoy obviously wouldn't let go of such an opportunity, and immediately let out a malicious taunt.

Harry retorted unflinchingly, "Hermione is our classmate and friend. She has the right to make a choice according to her own will. It's not like the two stupid big servants around you. ”

I have to say that this sentence instantly stabbed Crabbe and Goyle's pitiful self-esteem.

After all, what can sting a person's heart the most is never a rumor, but a cruel truth.

The two of them glared at Harry instantly, if it wasn't for the wizarding duel, they would have rushed up and started swinging their fists.

Don't think that wizards are a bunch of wand-wielding wands, even if they kill people, they will maintain an elegant demeanor, raise their wands and chant "Arvada gnaws big melons", and then shoot a green light that symbolizes death.

In fact, many wizards fight in a very savage, bloody and brutal manner.

Especially the guy who is good at transformation magic, often turns himself into the form of various beasts, and then rushes up to tear the other party into a lake of flesh and blood, and it is even more common to fight with his fists.

Looking at the tall Crabbe and Goyle's menacing appearance, Ron was obviously a little weak-hearted, and immediately asked, "Hey! It's a wizard duel today, right? ”

"That's right! What, are you scared? Wes came. Malfoy asked rhetorically with a sneer.

"No, of course not. I mean, since it's a wizard duel, take care of the two mad dogs around you and don't let them defile the sacred rules. ”

As the saying goes, losers don't lose.

Although Ron was terrified to death, he didn't mean to back down at all, but first accused the other party of being unruly.

"You two, be honest with me. Don't embarrass Slytherin House! ”

Malfoy turned and glared viciously at the two henchmen.

Crabbe and Goyle, who were fierce and vicious one second, completely withered in the next second, and honestly pulled out their wands and stood aside.

Seeing this, Ron also drew his wand, slowly retreated and conceded a distance of about seven or eight meters.

At this moment, in the open space in the middle of the trophy showroom, only Harry and Malfoy were left.

Since it was the first time for a wizard duel, it could be seen that they were all very nervous, and the hand holding the wand was sweating vigorously.

After about ten seconds of staring at each other, Malfoy was the first to speak, "Now, let's bow to each other according to tradition, Potter." Then count to three together, and the duel officially begins. I can't wait to see you on your knees begging for mercy. ”

"That's what I want to say."

Harry slowly raised his wand and made a standard pre-duel gesture as recorded in the book.

After Malfoy made the same move, the two sides bowed in unison, and then began to count down together.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

"It's all petrified!"

"Armor protection!"

After the countdown was over, the two released the spell they had prepared almost immediately.

It's just that Malfoy's petrification spell was learned at home, and although it wasn't very powerful, it was obviously enough to deal with the first-year freshmen.

But unfortunately, this time he met the savior of cheating.

Harry barely even thought about it, and used his wand to activate the Iron Charm scroll hidden in his sleeve.

In the blink of an eye, an invisible magic shield enveloped him and successfully deflected the petrification spell that shot from his opponent's wand.

"This ...... How is this possible! ”

Malfoy's eyes widened in shock.

You must know that even he can't cast a full Iron Armor Charm at his current age, let alone Harry Potter, who has always lived in a Muggle family

However, Harry obviously didn't intend to explain, and immediately activated the disarming spell scroll with a very subtle movement, and then raised his wand and pointed forward: "Remove your weapon!" ”

Moment!

A dazzling red light shot out from the front of the wand, hitting Malfoy with a thud, not only causing him to lose the wand in his hand, but also as if he had been hit by a car, and his body flew backwards several meters away uncontrollably, and even crashed into several display cases, before he barely stopped.

No doubt!

According to the rules of wizarding duels, Harry could now declare himself victorious.

But Hermione, who was smart and observant, noticed that the savior would touch the hidden scroll in his sleeve with his wand every time he cast a spell.

Combined with Zuo Si's recent research, he immediately understood what was going on, and his eyes became extremely strange, but he didn't choose to debunk it after all.

With the clumsy help of Crabbe and Goyle, Malfoy quickly got up from the ground, his face full of astonishment, as if he still couldn't accept that Harry, who had grown up in a Muggle family, was able to successfully cast two spells in a row and defeat himself indisputably in a one-on-one wizarding duel.

Could it be that the savior really has some unknown power, which is why he defeated the mysterious man back then?

Suddenly, Master Malfoy's heart was seriously shaken, and at the same time, his self-confidence was also damaged, and he didn't care about sneering as usual, but rushed out of the trophy showroom without saying a word, and ran towards the common room in Slytherin.

Crabbe and Goyle followed closely.

In the blink of an eye, the three of them disappeared into the darkness.

"Well done! I bet Malfoy must have been freaked out this time. ”

Ron was the first to break the silence and stepped forward and patted his friend on the shoulder to express his excitement.

"Hey, hey! Thanks to these reels. Soth didn't lie to us, this thing can be instantly turned into a spell to attack enemies with a light activation of his wand. ”

Harry hurriedly pulled the remaining three out of his sleeve and giggled.

Because it was the first time he had fought with his peers, and it was also the first time he had felt the amazing power of magic, and his brain frantically secreted dopamine to bring about emotions called happiness.

Ron said in a rather envious tone, "It's a good thing indeed. If it weren't for two gold galleons each, but two silver sicos, I'd consider buying a few for spare. ”

"Stop dreaming! Do you know what the scrolls of Soth were used to copy and seal? It's the blood of a fire dragon! The price of a small vial of this thing is even more expensive than many high-grade potions. Hermione interjected angrily.

"Dragon's blood?!

”

Ron's mouth instantly grew long enough to fit into a fist.

"Is it expensive?" Harry asked in an uncertain tone.

The former immediately nodded vigorously: "Of course!" A small vial of fire dragon blood can even sell for hundreds of gold galleons. Because the blood had to be taken from a living dragon, it was so dangerous that only the most daring wizards would try the job. ”

"I see! It seems that the price that Soth sold us is not too expensive, but the production cost is relatively high. Harry said thoughtfully.

However, he obviously didn't know that the magic ink made by Zuo Si was actually mixed with a few drops of fire dragon's blood in a large bottle to strengthen the magic power.

The rest were the blood of other magical beasts that were relatively cheap, or the powder of ground gems and some magical plants.

Seeing that the two silly boys hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem, Hermione finally couldn't help but hold her forehead and ask, "Have you figured out the situation?"

If Soth's research succeeds, the scroll will soon take the wizarding world by storm.

At that time, with the financial resources of Malfoy and the family behind him, he could easily buy dozens or even hundreds.

At that time, he will not only know that you cheated today, but he will also get revenge back in the same way. ”

"Oh-shit!"

A poor Ron seems to have seen that he will be stoned to death by Malfoy's money.

Just as Harry was about to say something, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the hallway, followed by the voice of Filch, the castle keeper.

"Who? Who's in there? ”

"Not good! Come on! ”

Without having time to think about it, Hermione immediately took out her wand and blessed the three of them with a phantom charm, then turned around and rushed out of the trophy showroom, and began to panic and scurry.

However, they had apparently forgotten that the Illusion Charm was a simple visual invisibility that could not block out the sound of footsteps as they ran.

Especially in this quiet night environment, whether it is violent wheezing or footsteps, it seems so harsh.

Filch's cat, Lady Loris, apparently sensed the presence of the three and chased after them.

In contrast, Zuo Si, who always stood still and did not move, was completely undetected.

After the caretaker ran over, he walked leisurely towards the library.

It didn't take long for me to sit down at the table in the forbidden area, and continue reading these books that contain a certain amount of dangerous knowledge as I did yesterday.

Although he hadn't rested for several nights, Zuo Si didn't feel sleepy at all.

To be exact, not sleeping doesn't have much of an impact other than not being able to recover spell bits.

Especially after the divine power was more and more transformed into pure energy controlled by himself, he had already begun to break away from the realm of mortals and officially become a member of the transcendent life.

However, in order to hide people's eyes, Zuo Si would pretend to drink some self-concocted potions to restore his strength every day.

Obviously, coming to this relatively safe world to develop a wave of obscenity is the right choice for him.

Without guarding against external threats, you can not only devote a lot of time and energy to transforming your divine power, but also gain some of the knowledge and power you need from it, and further improve and build your own unique spellcasting system.

While I haven't made a single Brigade Mage card so far, the gains aren't small at all.

Not to mention, just a fierce fire that cannot be easily extinguished and can be transformed into different forms has a very high plasticity.

Combined with the elemental control of the archmage's advanced arcane ability, it is simply an out-and-out killing weapon.

In addition, since there is no limit to the magical power of this world, if some of Faeron's spells can be transformed into the spellcasting methods of wizards, then it is completely possible to directly integrate the magic of the Bigbay Great Hand series into a spell that truly integrates attack and defense without any defects.

Of course, it is still a bit difficult to do this with Zuosi's current knowledge reserves.

However, he believed that as he learned more about spells, potions, herbs, magical beasts, and ancient runes, it was only a matter of time before he could overcome those puzzles.

For people who maintain a high level of mental focus, time always flies exceptionally fast, and hours pass in a flash.

When it was about six o'clock, the sky began to brighten, Zuo Si quickly packed up his things and put the forbidden book in his hand back to its original place, preparing to take a little rest in the dormitory, and eat a hero's banquet to fill his stomach by the way.

After all, Snape had Potions class every Friday, and he didn't want to be stared at with gloomy eyes by the other party because he was late.

After a short break for breakfast, the first-year Gryffindors and Slytherin House freshmen poured into a large classroom in the basement of the castle.

Since Snape gave the savior Harry Potter a straightforward dismissal during the first Potions lesson, it was clear that the new Gryffindor students were quite resistant to the course.

Harry and Ron had even walked into the classroom and began to wonder what Snape was going to do today, or how many points he was going to deduct from himself.

Slytherin's freshmen, by contrast, were elated.

Because they know that their own head of house will definitely favor them in class.

But there was only one person who was not happy at all, and that was Young Master Malfoy, who had suffered a big loss last night, and he didn't even go to Harry's side to provoke him as usual.

As for Zuo Si, he still walked into the classroom stuck.

"You're almost late!"

Snape, who was standing on the podium, reminded in a slightly disgruntled voice.

"Almost not late, right?"

Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly as he walked to the only controlled position in the corner and sat down.

His casual attitude made Snape's already rather gloomy face suddenly become even more gloomy, but he couldn't find an excuse to deduct points like he did with Gryffindor students.

On top of that, Zuosi's talent for mixing potions is just as good as his talent for spells.

No matter what kind of potion it is, you can learn it immediately just by reading it once.

Not to mention the content in the first-grade potions textbook, even the high-level potions have been learned several.

And Snape knew that Zuo Si had been concocting stamina-restoring potions in his dormitory, and that the difficulty of that potion was only slightly easier than that of the elixir.

Therefore, the method of threatening and intimidating grades is of no use to this freshman.

Unless he was going to wipe out the entire first-year final exam, and come up with a elixir or eternal potion that was the most difficult even in the book "Advanced Potions Making", there was really nothing he could do.

So Snape decisively chose to vent his anger on Harry on the side.

I saw him walk straight up to the innocent-looking boy, point to the other party's empty notebook and ask, "Potter! Why didn't you record even a little bit of something in the last lesson? Gryffindor buckles ten! ”

Moment!

Harry froze in place as if he had been stupid.

Although he knew that Snape had been targeting him, the problem was that this reason was a little too far-fetched and outrageous.

Not to mention that the students of Gryffindor House couldn't accept it, even the people in Slytherin House showed surprised and stunned expressions.

Just as Harry blushed and wanted to argue, Ron, who was sitting not far away, hurriedly lowered his voice and reminded, "Don't be fooled! If you get into an argument with Snape at this time, you'll only be deducted more points. ”

"Damn! I bet he must have been mad at me because he couldn't do anything about Naxos. Harry grumbled through gritted teeth.

"No way. Soth was a student at Slytherin House, and if he were to be deducted points, it would be equivalent to points in Snape's own house. On top of that, Soth didn't care about that at all, and he wouldn't blink an eye even if the Slytherin House points were deducted. Ron's tone revealed a strong sense of envy.

Because in his opinion, Zuo Si is simply the most free student in the entire first grade and even the whole school, and there is no one.

As soon as the school started, most of the Slytherin College was destroyed, so that even the prefects and senior students did not dare to make irresponsible comments about it, and basically did whatever they wanted.

As for other people's opinions, he doesn't care at all, and only focuses on the study and research that interests him.

Coupled with an incredibly brilliant brain and terrifying wizarding talent, most professors will choose to turn a blind eye even if they are occasionally late or don't show up for class.

To be honest, this kind of campus life and privileges Ron never dreamed of.

But unfortunately, his current level may not even be able to complete the homework assigned by the professor independently.

As in the previous Potions lesson, Snape picked a relatively simple potion from the textbook and asked the students to find the recipe and process in the book to concoct it.

Those who are successfully transferred before the end of class can get different grades according to the quality of the grade, and those who fail will be treated with zero points.

From the eyes full of disgust, it is not difficult to see that he is absolutely disgusted with the potions that these little wizards have been refining for a year.

And every time he passed by Harry's side, Snape would deliberately occupy a moment longer, staring at him with gloomy eyes for a long time.

Once you make a mistake, you will immediately incur sarcasm and sarcasm.

From this alone, it's not hard to see that there's definitely a reason why Harry hates Potions and Snape.

After all, it is impossible for any child to like a teacher and his class who has nothing to do and always likes to block himself.

However, this expression full of disgust finally changed when he came to Zuo Si's side.

Looking at the green smoke coming from the pot and the surging fragrance that his nose smelled, Snape immediately asked in a slightly surprised tone, "Another physical potion?" How long has it been since you've slept in the Eight Scenes? ”

"Well—I think it's been a while." Zuo Si replied casually.

"I have to remind you that while stamina potions can relieve fatigue to some extent, they can't completely replace sleep. At least every two weeks or so, you need to get up to ten hours of sleep at a time. Otherwise, your body will be exhausted. Snape solemnly warned.

"Don't worry, Professor. I've read that potions book and know the side effects of stamina potions. In fact, when the class is over, I plan to go back to my dorm room to rest. ”

As he spoke, Zuo Si appropriately sprinkled the chopped herbs into the pot and stirred, adding a little like dried insects.

Next Second......

Bang!

Everyone saw a white flame emerge from the cauldron, followed by the originally turbid potion that suddenly turned into a clear and transparent potion.

You don't need to ask to know that this pot of potion has been successfully blended.

Zuo Si ignored the reactions of the others, and directly took out a huge glass jar and poured the physical strength potion into it in one go.

The price of this thing in the market is fifteen gold galleons for a small bottle, and some senior students who are very stressed about their graduation exams occasionally need to buy a bottle.

He can hold at least fifteen to twenty vials in this pot.

Moreover, the materials are all provided to the new students for free at Hogwarts for free, and the cost is almost zero.

Although Zuo Si did not make the corresponding potion as required, no one stood up to accuse him.

The reason is simple!

Stamina potions were far more difficult than the potions assigned by Snape.

The former can be perfectly modulated, and it is naturally impossible not to modulate the latter.

"Your research is complete?" Snape raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Zuo Si shook his head slightly: "No, it's still far away."

Reinventing so many spells is not an easy task.

However, I've recently developed a simplified version that is activated with a wand.

It can already be used to store a series of frequently used spells, such as the Iron Armor, Disarm, Cease, Petrify, Slumber, Fire, Imprison, Cutting, Crushing, Oblivion, Muggle Expulsion, Patronus, and more.

In addition, I have basically found a pattern for the formula of the ink and the treatment of the parchment.

If nothing else, it will be ready for publication in a week or two at most.

I think the Squibs, or those who aren't good at spells, will love this magical technique that will free them from their troubles. ”

"Do you have a sample?"

Snape was clearly interested and interested.

Few people know better than him what sensational effects this technology will bring to the wizarding world once it is revealed.

After all, it's not like no one has tried to store spells and spells before.

However, due to various reasons and problems, in the end, it either failed, or the manufactured things were so expensive that they could not be popularized.

"Give!"

Without saying a word, Zuo Si took out a scroll of the Fire Charm from his pocket and handed it over.

Snape held it in his hand for a few seconds, then quickly asked, "How do you use this thing?" ”

"It's simple, just touch it with your wand to activate it." Zuo Si replied bluntly.

Driven by a strong sense of curiosity, Snape tapped the scroll with his wand, and instantly felt a wave of magic unleash and pour into the wand.

Immediately after, a spell appeared in his brain, and he immediately raised his hand to the ceiling of the Potions classroom and shouted.

"The flames are blazing!"

Rumble!

In an instant, a large ball of bright flames erupted from the tip of the wand, illuminating the originally somewhat dim environment, and at the same time scaring the young wizards who were concocting potions, so that many people had all kinds of problems with their potions.

In normal times, Snape would definitely use the question to play and deduct points from Gryffindor students one by one.

But now, his whole body was fascinated by the actual effect of the scroll, and he tentatively said with interest: "The power of the scroll depends on the person who made it?" ”

"That's right. To be exact, the people who inject magic and spells into it.

This also means that the same spell, if cast by those powerful wizards, can be several times or even dozens of times more powerful than ordinary wizards.

In addition, I also took into account that many powerful wizards will make some changes to their spells, so I will explain the basic method of spells in the upcoming book so that they can record their own unique magic.

In the future, I will continue to develop an advanced version that can be used without a wand, so that even if a wizard loses his wand, he can use the scroll he carries to fight and maneuver with his enemies.

All in all, this will be a very large and complex undertaking that will initially take several years. ”

Zuo Si didn't hide anything, and Dafang said his plans and thoughts.

Snape's eyes suddenly became very complicated, and it took a full minute before he said in a deep voice, "Do you know what it means when these things are announced?" ”

"You mean fame? Wealth? Or is it from the hype of newspapers and magazines? Or the so-called Sir Merlin's Order of Honor? Zuo Si raised his head and asked with a sneer.

"There aren't many people in this world who can resist the temptation of fame and wealth, especially a kid your age. You may lose yourself in the acclaim or even become a completely different person. Snape reminded in a heartfelt voice.

But Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly: "Dear professor, please don't compare me to those fools."

Because I know very well that in this world of magic and wizarding, nothing compares to knowledge and power.

As for fame, wealth, power, and the like, they are all just in the service of getting the former.

If the order is reversed, then no matter how talented and powerful the person's magic is, he will still be a second-rate wizard after all. ”

Obviously, the "second-rate wizard" in Zuo Si's words refers to none other than Voldemort, who makes the entire British wizarding community dare not even mention his name.

Hearing someone arrogantly use the term "second-rate wizard" to evaluate the Dark Lord, Snape immediately raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure you know what you're talking about?" ”

"Of course! Even if that guy comes in person, my evaluation won't change even a word. A second-rate is a second-rate, and although he may be higher in terms of dark arts attainments, he is far worse than Headmaster Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald in terms of ideology. For the long history of the wizarding world, the little panic and turmoil he created was nothing to mention. ”

Zuo Si unceremoniously expressed his disdain for Voldemort.

Because in his opinion, this is a poor creature who is extremely distorted and sick in spirit, and has serious psychological defects, just blindly pursuing eternal life and avoiding death.

Its so-called methods of "being good at manipulating people's minds and distorting thoughts" are nothing more than the lowest level of threats, intimidation and displays of power.

Once its invincible image is destroyed, its subordinates will be scattered in a matter of minutes.

This was evident in the first death.

In turn, look at Dumbledore's manipulation of people's hearts.

Even if he died, Hogwarts professors like Snape and McGonagall, as well as a large number of members of the Order of the Phoenix, were still willing to pledge their allegiance to him.

So from beginning to end, Zuo Si didn't look down on the ups and downs of the devil.

The latter is too poor in terms of vision, pattern, and psychological quality.

Especially after tearing the soul to make a Horcrux, the mind has obviously declined greatly, and the whole person is as capricious as a neurotic.

They are completely different from the smart, cautious, forbearing, and good at disguise they were when they were students.

If it is placed in Feren, even if it is said to be higher, it is only the second Samaste.

I didn't know how to be fooled by a few devils, so I easily sold my soul to Bato Hell.

After all, a person like this, who has huge flaws in heart and character, no matter how smart he is, usually does not live long in the crisis-ridden Feron.

"You're conceited, more conceited than any wizard I've ever met." Snape commented meaningfully.

But Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders disapprerovingly: "But I have such qualifications, don't I?" ”

"Don't leave when class ends for a while, come with me to the principal's office."

Snape dismissed the sentence noncommittally, and then turned to trouble the new Gryffindor housemen.

It didn't take long for several "lucky people", including Harry and Ron, to have problems with the potion in the pot due to distraction, and the results were ruthlessly canceled.

Although Hermione succeeded in concocting the specified potion, he also deducted five points for "not alerting her classmates".

In just one Potions class, Gryffindor House lost almost thirty points, which was a complete disaster.

It's no wonder that Snape has been at the top of Hogwarts' list of least popular professors for many years.

By the time the Potions class was over, the young wizards who had been tormented for two hours immediately fled the classroom that had suffocated them.

Led by Snape, Zuoth made his way through a large number of stairs and hallways to the door of the Headmaster's office.

After giving the statue the correct password, the two entered the passage into what was probably the most important room in the entire castle.

Dumbledore himself seemed to be dealing with some letters, and asked without looking up, "Severus, is there anything important?" ”

2k

"Of course! There's been a lot of progress on the scrolls that Soth is working on, and I think you'd better see them for yourself. ”

As he spoke, Snape immediately motioned with his eyes to Zuo Si to take out another one and show it to the headmaster.

"Oh? Are you sure? ”

Dumbledore also looked curious.

"Sort of. Due to material limitations and the difficulty of spells, I was able to make a few scrolls that required a wand to activate for the time being, which was far from what I had originally envisioned. ”

Zuo Si casually took out the last few scrolls and placed them in front of the principal's desk.

It is not difficult to see from the expression on his face that he himself is not satisfied with this semi-finished product.

This is because many of Faeron's scrolls don't require the user to have magical powers, even some trained thieves can use them.

But Zuo Si made these rags, but he still had to rely on the help of foreign objects such as magic wands, which was simply a bunch of defective products.

However, Dumbledore obviously had his own ideas about this, and quickly picked up one of them and tried to activate and use it, and immediately exclaimed, "Unbelievable masterpiece." Congratulations, South, you've invented an incredible technology. I don't think it will be long before all wizards in the wizarding world will be inseparable from it. If you don't mind, can you tell me what made you think like this in the first place? ”

"Hmm—I guess the wizards rely too much on wands.

So much so that after losing their weapons, they will become extremely fragile and become fish to be slaughtered.

So I want to make up for this deficiency to some extent.

Actually, I wanted to make not only scrolls, but also rings, amulets and other equipment that could be used to store spells and spells.

In this way, wizards have more means to deal with unexpected situations.

Instead of being attacked as it is now, you will be instantly put to the ground in an instant. ”

Zuo Si touched his chin and explained half-truthfully.

"Pretty great idea.

It seems that you have already planned your future for yourself.

I'm looking forward to seeing you invent and craft these things for yourself one day in the future, and thus advance the entire wizarding world.

As the principal, I have decided to give you a pass to enter the forbidden section of the library at any time.

In this way, you don't have to stay up all night without sleep and stay up late in the forbidden book section to find and flip through the knowledge you need. ”

With that, Dumbledore smiled and handed over a note with his name on it.

"Thank you."

Zuo Si politely thanked him and took the note, which was no longer of much use to him.

After so many days, he had already imprinted the most important and essential parts of the forbidden book area in his mind, and it was too late to collect and organize them slowly when he had time in the future.

"By the way, when are you going to make the scroll technology out to the public and then release it in the form of a book?" Dumbledore pretended to be inadvertently tentative.

Zuo Si didn't say a word, and directly took out his notes and threw them on the principal's desk: "Including the methods of making ink and Shuoyuan spells, there are also more than thirty commonly used spells in the scroll making process. If you think that's enough to make a book, publish it right away, I don't have a problem anyway. If nothing else, I'll go back and rest first. ”

"Go ahead, I'll take care of the publishing for you."

Dumbledore made a promise as he flipped through his notes.

He understood that without the endorsement of such an unprecedented and groundbreaking invention by a renowned wizard like himself, it would probably be a long time before the wizarding world would recognize it.

Seeing Zuo Si turn around and leave the headmaster's office, Snape couldn't help but question, "Is this really good?" ”

Dumbledore smiled and asked, "Why not?" Soth's terrifying talent is something you should have felt. For such a genius, instead of trying to suppress it, it is better to be a favor. If he could keep his interest and energy focused on the field of invention and creation, it would be a blessing for the entire wizarding world. ”

"And what about Potter? Are you going to continue to put that heavy responsibility on his shoulders? Snape frowned subconsciously.

"Of course! Harry is Harry, and Soth is Soth. What's more, do you think a wizard as smart as Thos, with infinite potential, can be easily manipulated by others? So let go of your unrealistic delusions, and don't rush into things that are doomed to failure unless you want to be his enemy. ”

As he said this, Dumbledore's tone was full of warning.

Because in Zuosi's body, he saw the shadow of himself, Voldemort, and Gellert Grindelwald in his youth.

It's all the same intelligence, the same talent, the same pride and conceit......

"But I don't think Soth seems to have even the slightest affection for that man. When he was in Potions class, he was described as a second-rate wizard. ”

Snape was visibly unimpressed, but felt that there was a lot of room for manoeuvre.

"A second-rate wizard? Did Soth say this? A strange expression appeared on Dumbledore's face.

Although he himself has always been confident enough to defeat his former student in a one-on-one wizard duel.

But considering the problem of the Horcruxes, in the end, he still couldn't make up his mind to do it.

But that doesn't mean Voldemort is weak.

Quite the opposite!

In Dumbledore's magnificent life, Voldemort was the strongest enemy he had ever encountered, and there was no one.

His prowess in magic and dark magic was unmatched even by Gellert Grindelwald.

The centenarian really couldn't understand why Zuo Si dared to rate Voldemort as a "second-rate wizard".

However, this obviously disdainful evaluation made him feel a lot more relieved, at least he could be sure that Zuo Si didn't like Voldemort at all.

Even if the two meet in the future, there is a high probability that they will become enemies.

To be on the safe side, Dumbledore eventually decided to do a little test just in case.

After all, Voldemort was at Hogwarts right now, and he was in an extremely weak half-dead state.

By the way, you can also see if Zuo Si will show the same greed and desire as others when facing the Philosopher's Stone.

In fact, known as the greatest wizard of our time, Albus Dumbledore was not as kind as many outsiders think.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have watched Voldemort take control of British wizarding and then slaughter Muggles and Muggle-born wizards.

As the only wizard at the time who had the power to stop the tragedy from spreading, this was more than just a that "because of the Horcruxes, it doesn't make sense to kill Voldemort".

Many of those who died were Dumbledore's students, close friends, and members of the Order of the Phoenix who sacrificed their lives.

It's more because Dumbledore is very different from ordinary people and even ordinary wizards when it comes to looking at life and death.

In his opinion, death is nothing more than a great adventure.

This point is repeatedly emphasized more than once in the original book.

Therefore, Dumbledore himself was never afraid of death, and he rarely felt sad and painful for the death of others.

It is this emotional apathy that makes him particularly calculating and very good at manipulating others.

Unfortunately, this time he clearly chose the wrong person.

Whether it's Voldemort

Well, whether it's a philosopher's stone, the attraction to Zuo Si is almost zero.

In fact, there is also a powerful sub-artifact called the "Alchemy Stone" in Faerun, whose effect is almost the same as that of the Philosopher's Stone, and even more powerful.

Inside it produces a substance called magic mercury.

Mages can use the substance to convert iron into more than two tons of silver, or lead into about half a ton of gold.

If you mix magic mercury with a healing potion, you can create a magic potion that brings the dead back to life.

As long as it is sprinkled on the corpse, the effect is equivalent to the [Complete Resurrection Technique] in the Nine Rings Divine Technique.

What's more, similar life-prolonging potions, Zuo Si doesn't know how to concoct, and there is more than one.

Once a person taking a life-prolonging potion walks into an anti-magic field, or is hit by a dispel effect such as disarming magic or a large cleavage, the entire body may age, collapse, or die within a few seconds.
