Professor McGonagall looked at the object in front of her, puzzled.

Picking up the small statue on the table, she frowned and asked, "Where did you get the black magic prop?" out of your house's treasure trove."

The statue of this little gorgon in his hand is not common in the wizarding world. Instead, you will occasionally hear about Gorgons in the Muggle world. If it weren't for the vague black magic fluctuations on it. Professor McGonagall would also have thought that it was just an artifact that Luke had scooped up from Muggles.

And what came out of the Luke's treasury, Professor McGonagall wouldn't be surprised.

Even if Luke pulled out the Death Trichows, Professor McGonagall thought it was normal.

Luke didn't know what Professor McGonagall was thinking, and said, "No, I bought it from a store in Diagon Alley, and I'd like to find out where it came from. I suspect there might be some clues in the *** area."

If there is no one in the *** district of Hogwarts, then the origin of this thing will have to be found abroad. It's not that the statue is powerful. The main thing is that the knowledge involved in this thing must be able to find clues. If it can't be found, then this thing is either the first time it has appeared in the UK, or even in Europe. Either that or that involves the secrets of some family.

If you have something of unknown origin, go to the *** area to look for it, and you may be able to find clues.

Professor McGonagall's brow furrowed even more as she heard Luke's words, "This is a ritual black magic prop. I know you're measured. But still pay attention to one point...... there are some books in the *** area, and there is no need to talk about the knowledge in them. They're dangerous in their own right."

Books are also a type of magic prop in their own right.

In particular, the magic books of dark wizards are not only the condensation of what they have learned and felt in their lives, but also their weapons, the gifts they leave to future generations, and even the back hands of them in their quest for immortality or the pursuit of truth.

Books in non-*** areas are naturally evaluated by previous principals and professors, and there are no dangerous books.

Even slightly more dangerous books. For example, "Advanced Dark Magic", which seals souls into books. The soul that is sealed into it is a little joke of the creator. It is also the protection of future generations. If you don't even have a way to deal with that remnant, then it's better to stay away from high-level dark magic.

And in the depths of the *** area, there are really a lot of dangerous magic books.

There are some magic books in it, and it's not just that the content in them is dangerous. Books themselves are not something that young wizards can deal with.

Professor McGonagall knew with a little thought that Luke was definitely not going for those simple dark arts. There was nothing to be found in the Gaunt's library. Professor McGonagall really can't say if there's any danger involved.

"Don't worry, Professor. I'll take care of it."

Luke's face had a serious expression, and there was no careless thought.

He knew very well that his instincts told him that the origin of this thing must not be simple. The district may find some clues.

Intuition is also an important part of the judgment of wizards. Many wizards are willing to trust their instincts, and even when making decisions, they will restrain their rationality and trust their instincts. ….

Professor McGonagall was a little uneasy, though. But he still gave Luke a note.

As she was about to give it to Luke, she suddenly put it back away, picked up a quill and began to write and draw on it again.

[The problem of slow update of new chapters has finally been solved in the ability to change the source, here download huanyuan.change the source, and view the latest chapters of this book on multiple sites at the same time. 】

"You go find the book and bring it to my office."

As she spoke, she handed the revised note to Luke and said seriously, "With me, even if it's some dangerous books, it's fine."

That's the benefit of having a good relationship with your teacher to a certain extent. There are rules, there will be loopholes, it depends on whether you want to drill it, or whether you can drill it. If this was a normal student, Professor McGonagall would have just let him go back. A little wizard who wants to enter

Zone Deep. That's to play with your own life!

The professors are very cautious about every approval slip in the *** area. Often, for a whole academic year, the four colleges can't give four *** strips.

And the one given to Luke now is naturally because Luke's strength is trustworthy. Of course, a good relationship is also a fairly important relationship.

Luke smiled. Of course, he wouldn't be polite to Professor McGonagall, so he immediately took it into his arms.

"I'll come to you when I find the book."

Professor McGonagall looked at his hippie smile and said angrily, "Let's go, let's go, I didn't learn much with Dumbledore during a vacation."

I have to say that Luke's hippie smiling face is really similar to the way Dumbledore looked when he was trying to 'get by' in some things.

She knew that Luke and Dumbledore had spent a summer vacation. But I really didn't expect that the two of them would have such a deep impact on each other.

Obviously, the relationship between the two should be much better than I thought at the beginning.

Thinking of this, Professor McGonagall also breathed a sigh of relief. Last year, she wasn't stupid either, and could see that Luke and Dumbledore were fighting in secret.

Now the two of them look like they want to be as good as a pair of pants, which makes her understanding of the relationship between the two of them completely subverted.

However, it is always a good thing.

After seeing Luke leave, Professor McGonagall once again focused on the road map in front of her.

"If you go this route, will it also transfer the fur towards a metallic texture? Wrong...... Why did this little guy run this different trajectory in this class???

And the explosive, who did not want to be named, just wanted to say, "Professor, youknonothing......

Xueba will not understand the pain of scum.

……………………

Luke, who was holding the strip in his hand, looked extra relaxed. After all, although it has only been two days since the start of school, things are already on the right track.

But as he walked, he was also thinking.

Do you want to enter the secret room early?

The biggest problem with entering the secret room in advance is that it is easy to startle the snake.

If Tom was frightened, would he jump off the wall? The scourge that really made him let go of his hands and feet, then it would be difficult for Luke to deal with it.

"So I still have to find a ...... that can protect Ginny's soul."

Luke was somewhat distressed. After all, this kind of magic is very rare in the entire wizarding world. Not even Dumbledore.

He went to the *** area this time, in addition to looking for information related to the Gorgon's Banshee Statue, it was also a very important purpose to find the magic spell about the soul. The spell that protects the soul, whether there is a question mark in the *** area.

"The little snake seems to be distressed. Would you like Peeves to help?"

A voice with a smiling smile sounded in the air.

When Luke looked up, he saw Peeves' head hanging upside down from the ceiling, looking at him with a playful expression on his face.

Luke doesn't like Peeves, but he doesn't hate them either. He knew that Peeves knew a lot about Hogwarts' secrets. Even the two ghosts, Barrow the Blood, one of the Slytherin students, and Lady Gray, the daughter of Ravenclaw, don't know as much about Hogwarts as Peeves.

While chatting with Dumbledore, Dumbledore guessed that Peeves was a Hogwarts emotional ensemble. It is a special soul condensed by the rebellion, mischief and even malice of the students here. In essence, he does not belong to the ghosts. Not even belonging to the soul.

Luke denied this on the spot. When Dumbledore asked Luke why, he said it was intuition.

In fact, Luke, who can feel emotions, knows that Peeves is not a collection of emotions. I'm not sure if Peeves is a ghost or not. But he has absolutely nothing to do with emotions.

He's a real soul.

It's just that the way of birth is a mystery.

Luke looked at Pipsqueak in front of him

The ghost asked, "Do you have a solution?"

"Of course, how could the great Peeves-sama be helpless in the face of such a trivial matter?!"

Peeves triumphantly emerged from the ceiling. But instead of straightening his body, he folded his hands behind his head and floated upside down to the parallel position of his own head and Luke's.

"So...... At what cost?"

Luke asked, not in a very good tone, and took a few steps back. It's not because of anything else, but I think of the movies I watched in my previous life, the classic scenes in Spider-Man. He always wondered if the Skinners would kiss him the next moment.

Although I knew it was cranky, I still felt a little disgusting.

Peeves looked at Luke's disgusted expression.

Are you serious about taking a half-step back?

You're begging me to do something!

"Don't think too much about it, there's no such spell, I have my own way." Luke said as if he understood what Peeves was thinking.

Peeves sneered, "Then it doesn't matter. Excuse me. Then you go first."

What big things to say in front of Peeves, children still don't know the ...... Oops, hey, he's gone!

Luke listened to Peeves, then turned around and walked away. Kidding aside, he was really sure that he would accomplish his goal without hurting Ginny.

It's good to have such a spell, of course, but it's not impossible.

He's still being threatened by Peeves today.

"No! Stop!"

Peeves' anxious voice rang out. Luke stopped, turned his head to look at Peeves, who was a little angry, with a look of sadness or joy on his face. ….

"I'll be honest Peeves, don't say if you're going to use this spell to negotiate terms with me. Even if you give me this spell for nothing, I'll have to weigh whether I dare to use it."

Spells aren't just a random one. The spell that Voldemort taught Luke last semester, after checking the information, found that it was a very powerful special black magic that could make people lose control of their emotions.

Peeves Man...... Ghost products must be better than Voldemort...... But it's also limited.

Peeves looked at Luke, who looked distrustful, and said with a displeased expression, "What a joke! I'm a ghost, and I can sell you fake soul spells!"

His words didn't make Luke let his guard down. Luke still looked at him with calm eyes.

"Say something quickly. If I don't want to say anything, I'll go back to eating and sleeping." Luke glanced at his pocket watch, "We're the ones who never stress it to the next day."

"Give you the spell, you go open that door!"

Peeves didn't care about him either. Talking to someone like Luke is really saying more than one sentence. In the case that he doesn't like you, his behavior is really quite a blockage.

"No."

Luke really turned around and walked away this time. What spell could have been worth the risk he had! Even if you put the Elder Wand out and make a trade, Luke wouldn't take that risk.

He wasn't sure he would be absolutely safe from the small door in the Room of Need. So even if he is really curious, he will restrain his desire to explore.

Not to mention the door that I found when I was fighting with Peeves.

He still has to be left to be useful to realize his ideals.

Before the pureblood became great again, he became a cat killed by curiosity. This is a real master, and he died before he got out.

He didn't do such a stupid business.

"You're back! You wait! It's going to be fine!"

Peeves looked at Luke's back without looking back, and was so anxious that he almost scratched his ears and cheeks. But he couldn't catch up. He felt that if he caught up now, Luke might just do it to himself and ask for the spell.

Although he was sure he wouldn't say. But it doesn't seem necessary to take that beating.

"Oil and salt don't go in

little snake."

Peeves said hatefully.

But he couldn't do anything about Luke. He could feel that the little snake's combat power was stronger than last year. Not holding yourself down on the spot is already a sign of caution.

"Ahh

It seems that the mission will have to wait for the opportunity again.

Peeves was a little helpless.

Luke didn't feel any regrets. He ended up with the water from the well of Pipsqueak, who ended up basically not messing with the river water. Peeves don't come to provoke him, and he doesn't fight Peeves. Because it doesn't do him any good at all.

Peeves can get pleasure from fighting wits and courage, he can only lose, lose precious energy and time.

Now Peeves himself has sent it to the door, and he looks like I've already set you up, you just have to jump, and the pit will be filled by Peeves, and he will have a ghost if he can believe Peeves' nonsense.

If you have the kung fu to compete with this, you might as well think about whether it is better to open the secret room in advance.

So, after thinking about the time of a meal, Luke decided to sleep well in the dorm room.

No hurry, no hurry. The basilisk is in a hurry, and it is actually the same reason that Peeves takes the initiative.

The less Luke is in a hurry, the more anxious they are.

Anyway, there is no place for them in Luke's plan. With them, at best, it's just the icing on the cake.

At this time, it is wisest to wait and see what happens.

So, after a good night's sleep, Luke went straight to the *** district after class the next day.

I don't update
