Chapter 197: Alchemy Course
The two of them went directly to the Hogsmeade village next to Hogwarts House, looking for a place where no one was there to change their clothes.
"Boss, we're going to Hogwarts now?"
"I asked Professor Dumbledore to come out and pick us up, anyway, it's also a new visiting professor, let him greet us as headmaster, and by the way, it should be okay to make an alibi?" Zhang Ziyu said easily, Lu Ping looked like this, the boss of this line of work is professional, and the alibi has been thought of, Niu Pi!
With a movement of his fingertips, a cute panda guardian appeared in his hand.
"Go and talk to Professor Dumbledore." The Panda Patronus nodded, then turned into a streamer of light and ran from the sky towards Hogwarts.
"Let's go, let's go to Duke Bee's shop and buy him some candy as a gift, and then wait for the professor to come." It took less than ten minutes for the Patronus to go out, Zhang Ziyu and the others had just bought candy, and Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall had already changed their shapes to Hogsmeade Village, waiting for the two of them at the entrance of the village.
"Well, Professor, this is a gift for you." Zhang Ziyu handed the bag with candy in his hand to Dumbledore, Dumbledore took it with a smile, looked at it curiously and said, "Thank you, it would be better if there were a pile of cockroaches." Zhang Ziyu rolled his eyes and said, "Normal people who eat candy that looks like cockroaches, Professor McGonagall, do you eat it?" Professor McGonagall smiled and shook her head, and said, "I don't like sweets, hello Mr. Zhang Ziyu when we meet for the first time." ”
"Hello Professor McGonagall, I didn't expect you to come with Professor Dumbledore, I didn't have any preparation, this spell ring is for you, I hope you don't mind."
"Spell ring?" Professor McGonagall took the ring, looked surprised, and said, "Is that the magical creature that has been popular lately?" ”
"Yes, but it's not a white ring of spells, but a magic ring that solidifies the armor spell, no magic can be instantaneous, and if you have a magic blessing, you can continue to activate it after breaking it for a period of time." After all, it's a defensive spell, but it can't be triggered all the time, and if the ring is not damaged after breaking, it will enter the charging repair phase, which is the stun phase.
"Sir, this gift is too precious." The market price of the Spell Ring is about 300 gold Galleons, while the defensive Charm Ring Zhang Ziyu does not refine much, so the price is more expensive, around 500 Gold Galleons.
Although Professor McGonagall also has a small amount of savings as vice principal, she easily loosened the Harry Potter Halo 2000 broom.
In the previous life, someone estimated that the price of this flying broom halo 2000 was about 1,000 gold galleons to 2,000 gold galleons, and Zhang Ziyu also asked about the price when he was doing street boils in Diagon Alley.
The external price is 1,100 gold galleons, which is about the same as the estimate, so Professor McGonagall is really rich.
However, there is money to be rich, but three hundred gold Galleons is not a lot, at least a large part of the Auror's monthly salary is hundreds of gold Galleons.
So, it's not an exaggeration to say it's a precious gift. The bag of candy next door Dumbledore only cost five silver sicos.
Dumbledore:?
"It's okay, anyway, I refine it myself, and the profit is very high." Zhang Ziyu didn't care too much, but Professor McGonagall couldn't fix it, this turned out to be refined by you, and it was so direct, this is a business.
Originally, she was still wondering why Dumbledore would let her come out to greet a new visiting professor together, and when she saw Zhang Ziyu, she even wondered if this young and handsome young man had not graduated from any magic school.
But now it seems that he is indeed a difficult genius, a powerful alchemical wizard.
"Take it Minerva, Mr. Zhang is a real rich man." Dumbledore was joking, and he knew that the rings were nothing to Zhang Ziyu.
As for giving gifts, then naturally Minerva was recognized by Zhang Ziyu. In other words, a professor like Minerva, who is dedicated to teaching and who is strict but also caring, should not attract too many people to bored him.
"Mr. Zhang, why don't we go to Hogwarts first and then have a good talk?"
"Yes, I'll teach you to lead the way." The four of them returned to Hogwarts from Hogsmeade Village and went directly to Dumbledore's Headmaster's office.
The Headmaster's office of Hogwarts is located in the highest attic of the entire house, which is not too large or small, and there are many magical items, most of which are obtained by the old man Dumbledore, after he became the headmaster, which is quite interesting.
In addition to his personal belongings, the most conspicuous are the magical portraits of past Hogwarts Headmasters hanging on the walls and the Sorting Hat on the bookcase.
The portrait is infused with part of the memories of the principals of the past dynasties and their way of thinking, and they all seem to be lifelike, some are napping, and some are watching Zhang Ziyu and his party, looking curious.
Regarding the portrait, Zhang Ziyu didn't recognize a few people, and he wasn't very interested. Speaking of which, they are only alchemical creations, not real creatures, otherwise they could have tried to contain them....... Secretly.
In addition to remembrance, the portrait serves as a staff officer and eyeliner for the current Headmaster, checking the dynamics of the students throughout Hogwarts.
It's not video surveillance, but it's pretty much the same through every Hogwarts portrait.
"Do you need some black tea, Mr. Zhang and Remus?"
"No need" Zhang Ziyu shook his head and asked curiously, "Professor, where did Fawkes go?" Dumbledore remained silent and said, "I don't know, I guess I went out to play." Professor McGonagall was a little puzzled, didn't she just let Fawkes inform herself, why wasn't she there?
Zhang Ziyu sneered secretly, the old man is very bad, you let it hide.
"Let's get down to business, it's okay for you to let me be a professor, but what kind of class do you want to teach, are there any requirements?" Dumbledore asked tentatively, "What do you think of the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor?" "I know from Zhang Ziyu that Quirrell has Voldemort's main soul behind his head, and Dumbledore is worried that his hair is falling off one by one, but it is not easy to deal with Voldemort's main soul at this time.
Don't look down on the dark magic immortality of Horcruxes, if you really want him to deal with it, it's really not that easy, and if Voldemort detects that he has transferred Horcruxes or carved more Horcruxes, then it will be even more impossible to deal with.
Zhang Ziyu's face was full of black lines, and he said, "Professor, we don't have a grudge, right?" "Sometimes the most dangerous thing at Hogwarts is not the students, but the professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts, who has either resigned early or been injured accidentally, and when Harry Potter goes to school, the accident rate is even more sky-high.
"Ahem" Dumbledore was a little embarrassed and said, "The Defence Against the Dark Arts class was cursed by Tom is just a rumor, at most it is a curse, it is easy to have some accidents, but it should have no effect on you." "I don't know who spread the rumor that Voldemort had cursed the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and whoever took the class was unlucky.
Dumbledore also carefully screened for this, and there was indeed no trace of dark magic, which can only be said to be really unlucky, quite mysterious.
And according to his observations, it seems to be some ordinary accidents, and so far there are few people who have really been injured, and for a wizard, isn't it common to get injured or something?
Spit and complain, Zhang Ziyu only knows that this thing is the power outside the box - that is, Aunt Rowling's pot.
After all, it's a story that happens in school.,Every year, a teacher changes to promote the plot.,It's easy to write.,Don't bother too much brain.。
However, the devil knows what will evolve into the real world.
"Forget it, I'm afraid of trouble, how about alchemy? Anyway, you don't have this course, just to fill the gap. Dumbledore thought for a moment and said, "But alchemy requires a very high level of magical attainment, and I'm afraid that students are not so easy to master." ”
"Just teach basic enchantment, do you still want to teach some advanced alchemy?" Dumbledore smiled dumbly and said, "It's that I'm thinking too much, so I'm going to call you Professor Zhang in the future." ”
