Chapter 23: "Bewitchment"
Along the way, Rig paid attention to the situation around him, so as not to directly meet Professor Snape, who was estimated to be unable to breathe for a short time.
When he went up and down the stairs, he had to listen carefully to make sure there were no angry footsteps before he walked briskly up the spiral staircase.
What's the difference between meeting with Professor Snape at this time and taking the initiative to pluck the basilisk's tail!
Rig didn't want to be a wizarding celebrity.
"Let's Face the Wind! 》
Tiptoeing up to the second floor, he managed to dodge the angry bat Professor Snape twice on the way, and was relieved to find that Snape was ready to return to Rig in his office.
He pushed open the glass door and walked inside, the library of Hogwarts Castle.
There are thousands of shelves in the library, and it is said that no wizard can read a tenth of the books here.
Mrs. Pince was the librarian, but she had left the castle for a vacation, and now Rig was the only one in the library.
During the semester, Hogwarts students can read or borrow books to study for their subject or just as a pastime.
There are two areas in the library that students are very curious about, and one is the invisible book section.
Most of the books stored here discuss invisibility, and they themselves may be invisible.
So Ron was taken aback by the sudden bite of the Invisible Book, which makes sense, right?
The other is the Forbidden Book Zone, which is an area located at the back of the library that is separated from the regular book area by a rope.
Ron was very unhappy with this, and he never looked at the road when he walked.
So I almost went into the forbidden book area directly, which is more reasonable, right?
Once, when he was looking for a book on the history of magic that no one had read, and he copied it to deal with his homework, he passed by the forbidden book section.
Ron was startled by the screams coming from inside, and later said that he would not help Hermione find the book, he just wanted to copy Hermione's homework.
But Hermione thinks these are all excuses that Ron doesn't want to study!
Books that are not suitable for young students are usually stored in this area, such as books about very powerful black arts or unpopular and esoteric content such as alchemy.
Permission to borrow books from this area requires a teacher's signature, and of course the principal can also give a slip.
After Mrs. Pince, the librarian, confirms the approval slip, she will take the books marked on the approval slip for the student.
But now she's not in the library, and Rig just goes in and gets the books he needs.
Quickly through the glass doors, Rig made a beeline for the end of the library, and of course he was also curious about the forbidden book section.
It's just that Rig is self-aware of his magic level, and he hasn't reached the stage where he can learn advanced magic knowledge as much as he wants, and just a blazing flame almost used up all his practice time.
Rig lifted his robe and stepped directly over the rope, no one was here anyway, and Rig was not worried about affecting his handsome image.
Walking into the forbidden book area, Rig felt that the air here was different from the outside, it was a rotten and decaying smell, he could hear someone whispering, but when he turned around, the sound disappeared without a trace.
He clenched his wand and followed Headmaster Dumbledore's comments to the end of the second row, the third shelf, where the alchemy books that Nicolame had donated to Hogwarts and the alchemy-related texts that Hogwarts had later found.
As he passed by the bookshelf in the middle, Rig felt something, and when he turned his head, he could see a book on the bookshelf that was red and bound by gold chains.
The book wasn't thick, just a thin layer, and it looked more like a note, and Rig involuntarily stopped, raising his hand to get the book.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he quickly shook his head, suspecting that he was bewitched by this book.
After a moment's hesitation, Headmaster Dumbledore's warning seemed to echo in his ears, and Rig lowered his hand.
Before leaving, he took one last look at the book and decided to bring Nicolame's thigh with him next time.
There are thighs that don't need to be white!
With a slow breath, Rig left the strange tome behind and went to the bookshelf of alchemy.
The bibliography that Nicolame marked for him was the most basic part of the course on alchemy.
Alchemy has no universal learning content, it is written by each master himself, and then passed on to the market by apprentices or family members, printed as books, or simply a unique book.
It would be even better if he was now Nicolame's apprentice, and the books that Nicolame donated to Hogwarts were codexes that he had collected or summarized himself, and fit perfectly with his system, and could not have been better as an introductory book for Rig.
"Foundation...... Over here! ”
Rig muttered to himself, searching the tall bookshelves that reached to the ceiling.
If Mrs. Pince was there, she would have stepped on a special small ladder to fetch the books on the upper floors, but now those ladders had disappeared with her, and Rig had to do it himself.
Skillfully floating himself, Rig looked at it one by one, and finally pulled out three books: "Introduction to the Principles of Alchemy", "Material Basic Supplement", and "Alchemy Production".
These were the books that Nicolame asked him to read first, each one as thick as a first-grade Charms textbook.
"Two days should be enough time for you to finish your studies, right? These three books are missing...... "Nicolame was still very understanding, and he was afraid that his apprentice would be stumped by alchemy and retreated, so he deliberately chose the three easiest books to get started.
After all, every year, there are people who can't continue to study, so they simply give up their studies and go directly to the alchemy apprentices of various families or shops.
Nicola Mame didn't want his chosen apprentice to be attacked by alchemy as soon as he started learning, and finally chose to give up.
At least learn what other fools have been apprenticed to for 30 years before he leaves.
These three Nicolame books were read in only two or three days, at what cost?
He spent three days hanging on to his life with energy potions, and studied hard all night before he passed the approval of his mentor.
There is a kind of pain that the guru thinks he can do, and so can you.
Rig looked at the book in his hand, and then at the tome on the shelf that he hadn't taken out yet, but that he needed to learn in the future.
Got it, what kind of course is alchemy?
The otherworldly version of the blue love of life and death!
Two days later, in the evening, in front of the White Building.
Rig stood in front of the familiar little western-style building, floating expressionlessly, stepping over the golden window with a small awning on the first floor.
Because I still want to work hard to write a little longer, I finish the book normally, so some foreshadowing is not so clear.
Snape put the play first, and then went when he was angry
