Chapter 124: Find a way
After Lockhart and his three children were separated, he went to Pandora, who was studying in the library, and Hermione hadn't been working as hard as Pandora lately.
"Professor!" Pandora looked up in surprise,
Lockhart leaned down and kissed her, "Honey, can you come out with me?" a little thing...... Oh no, don't pack your things, just say it right away. ”
"Of course. Pandora put her things down and walked with Lockhart to the library door.
"Well, my dear, I'm good friends with Professor Hagrid," Lockhart explained, "you know. ”
"Yes, he seems to be in trouble lately. ”
Lohart nodded: "That's right, he's in trouble, I need your help." ”
"Professor Hagrid, he's gone too far, and keeps putting strange things in Ms. Umbridge's office. Pandora said dissatisfied.
"That's not what he did, my dear, I need you to write a letter to your grandfather saying that you like Professor Hagrid very much and want him to continue as a professor at Hogwarts, okay? ”
Pandora frowned and said in embarrassment, "Well, since it's your friend, it's also my friend, and I'll write it." ”
Lockhart hugged Pandora and kissed him fiercely, "Thank you, dear." ”
"But, Professor, I have to warn you. I heard Draco in the break room yesterday that Hagrid was going to leave even if my grandfather helped him this time, and it seemed that Ms. Umbridge was determined to get rid of him. Pandora said sternly, "Also, my grandfather may be able to help Professor Hagrid say a few words, but with Ms. Umbridge's position, she can also choose not to give my grandfather face, so you still have to be prepared......"
"Yes," Lohar nodded, "Alright, you go back to studying, try to get good grades, and have a good summer." ”
"Hmm!" said Pandora's smile spread again.
"Professor McGonagall, where has he been for the past two days, Mr. Chancellor?" asked Lockhart anxiously.
Professor McGonagall also had a sad face: "I don't know, it seems that he went to the orphanage where the mysterious man lived when he was a child to find the mysterious man's horcrux, and he has not responded to our messages. ”
"Do you have any ideas about Hagrid? ”
"Umbridge, that guy made a mess of the school!" McGonagall screamed in anger.
"I promise she won't be in school next school year, but what now. "Lockhart was a little distressed, too, he couldn't kill her.
"Forget it, it's a big deal to let Dumbledore hire Hagrid again next year, Professor Snape just approached you, but you're not there. McGonagall comforted Lockhart.
"Okay, then I'll go find him......"
A moment later, Lockhart stopped behind an oak door, on which was delicately depicted a relief of a feathered serpent, and he could not help but marvel at the subtle look in his eyes. Then he knocked on the wooden door, and heard only a cold voice in his ears.
"Come in. ”
Lockhart pushed the door open, and the man in the room looked up from the pile of parchment, and after seeing the visitor's face, said, "Where did you just go, Gildero." ”
"I'm going to Hagrid. Lockhart replied casually. He glanced around the furnishings in the room, and saw that the four walls were dim, and there was little firelight, but mostly bright green fluorescents, and there were tall cabinets around the walls, displaying dozens of thick ridge books, as well as many glass jars, it is worth mentioning that all kinds of potions were suspended in the jars, although the appearance was disgusting, but in the eyes of those who knew the goods, they were incomparably precious.
A strange smile slowly appeared on Snape's face, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid you won't be able to help your half-giant friend this time." ”
"Everyone is from the Order of the Phoenix, don't you want to be so ruthless!" Lockhart glared at Snape dissatisfied, "Say, something." ”
Snape's eyes immediately became feverish: "I have carefully studied the Philosopher's Stone you gave me!"
"Why, have you figured it out?" Lockhart was a little surprised.
"Not so fast, but I've figured out how it works!" Snape's eyes were bloodshot, showing how crazy this was, "To be precise, the Philosopher's Stone isn't a pure alchemy product, it's more like a potion product, which makes my research a little easier!"
Lockhart moved a little unnaturally in the chair in Snape's office, "Severus, you should get some rest, you're too scary like this......"
"Are you listening to me?" Snape growled with wide eyes.
"Okay, okay, you go on. ”
Snape's expression settled down slightly: "This stone, it's a miracle in potions! It's a milestone in the history of magic!
"The inverse conversion of magic to life force. Lockhart repeated it to show that he was listening.
But Snape apparently didn't find a soulmate, and Lockhart was now preoccupied with how to keep Hagrid's position, so Snape was unhappy with Lockhart's expression: "Isn't that surprising enough!"
"Ah, I'm so surprised, inverse conversion!" Lockhart reacted, his expression exaggerated.
"Forget it, you don't know the magic of this. Snape twitched his cheek mockingly, "You're still a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, and I don't know how you managed to teach your students so well." ”
"Hmph, what, you can do it, what does this have to do with black magic. Lockhart was a little dissatisfied.
"Don't you know that a lot of dark magic can convert life force into magic!"
Lockhart finally understood, and he stood up suddenly: "You mean, those magic that was released at the cost of life?"
"You know something, Gildero. Snape nodded, "You should know the nature of wizards being able to cast magic. ”
"Of course, use the magic power in your body to activate the surrounding magical elements through the wand to complete the spell. ”
"That's basically right," Snape knew that Lockhart could understand what he was going to say, and he continued: "And those very terrifying and powerful spells skip this step, and directly expel the fixed magic power and even the life force in the **, and directly react, through the way of self-harm, to complete those special spells that cannot be completed by guò by stimulating the surrounding magical elements. That's why these spells, while powerful, come at the cost of health and life. ”
"I see! Forbidden spells are the conversion of life force into mana, and the Philosopher's Stone is the conversion of magic into life force!" Lockhart exclaimed in surprise, this is a big discovery.
