Chapter 190: Asking Hagrid (Part I)

Lockhart, finding himself constantly being kicked out, laughed at himself helplessly, and headed for his office.

"Honey, what are you doing here?" Lockhart found Pandora standing in the doorway of his office, her expression aggrieved.

"Professor......" Pandora did not take the initiative to hug Lockhart, but looked at him as if distant.

"What's wrong?" Lockhart took the initiative to put his arm around her shoulders and walked into the office, "What's going on?" ”

Pandora asked, "The rumor...... Whether it's true or not. ”

"What rumors?" asked Lockhart curiously, there were many rumors about him, which one?

"The students at school say you like Hermione Granger!" said Pandora, exclaiming, "Is it true?"

"What?" Lockhart was taken aback, and his first reaction was that Hermione deliberately spread this, trying to break up the relationship between Pandora and herself, but this suddenly made me wonder if the little girl was too bad?

"Of course it's fake, what do you think!" said Lockhart, pretending to be angry, "but she's an excellent student, and no professor doesn't like her." ”

"I'm not talking about liking!" Pandora was angry, "Did you have anything to do with her?"

"How can I have time to have anything to do with her, I've been staying with you during the summer vacation, and I've been at home for a few days when I come back from my trip, and it's even more behaving at school!" Lockhart pretended to be aggrieved, "Honey, can you trust me a little bit, at least hear the rumors and think about it." ”

Lockhart's acting skills have not declined, and after pretending to be innocent, the little girl immediately lost her confidence.

"Professor, I'm sorry, it's just that you're too good, too many girls like you, I'm afraid of losing you......" Hearing Lockhart's tone so tough, Pandora immediately put her arms around Lockhart's neck and whispered, "But you'll definitely resist the temptation, won't you." ”

"Of course, you have to trust me!" Lockhart breathed a sigh of relief, Pandora had relented so quickly, and it seemed that she had only heard the rumors and had not discovered anything. "Are you going to stay with me tonight?"

"Hmm. ”

――

In his spare time, Lockhart is also concerned about the news from the outside world, and the situation is not optimistic. But the Ministry of Magic was still functioning, and the most bitter were the Muggles, who didn't even know what was going on, and the world was a terrible place.

However, as a professor, Lockhart can't help much, and he can only study the new defensive magic "Vajra Hood" that he learned from China when he has free time. There is nothing magical about this magic, the only difference from the iron armor is that its defense range is far away from its own body, but this is very obvious when facing some spells.

The Death Curse cannot be countered with the Iron Curse, not because the Iron Curse is ineffective against it, but because of the unique working principle of the Death Curse and its instant killing. The principle of defensive magic is to weaken the strength of the spell, but no matter how it is weakened, the death curse may cause instant kill, because the human soul is so weak that even a great wizard like Dumbledore cannot say that his soul is strong enough to resist the death curse.

If you use the Iron Armor Curse to resist the Death Curse, the moment the Death Curse hits the Iron Armor Curse and bursts, as long as the slightest aftermath hits the human body, it will cause death. That time, Lockhart was hit by the talisman charm of Ginny's weak death curse, and his soul was also convulsed, and he was in a coma for several months, and the horror of the death curse can be seen.

The vajra cover is different, it expands the range of defense, if you can practice to be very proficient, you can theoretically block the death curse without being left behind. The spell wasn't complicated, and Lockhart would soon be able to cast it, and although it wasn't as powerful as the memory bearer, it could be used. He wondered why the wizards in Europe hadn't developed the spell, and perhaps it hadn't spread.

After putting away his wand, Lockhart decided to visit Hagrid and ask about the unicorn's blood.

――

As soon as he arrived at Hagrid's cabin, the dog pounced on Lockhart's legs and wagged his tail, and even tried to stand upright and lick his face, as if he was glad to see Lockhart again after a summer vacation.

Lockhart feigned anger and kicked it, "Get out of here, you stupid bitch." ”、

"Gildero, how did you have time to come here. ”

"Come and hang out without class," Lockhart said as he walked into the room and sat down, "you look like you've got something on your mind, Hagrid." ”

"Rock Skins?" Hagrid pushed over a plate, but Lockhart adamantly refused. "Well, Dumbledore finally arranged a good place for Gollum to live, and I thought I could relax for a while. Hagrid sat down as well, and threw a strip of dried meat to the wagging tooth, "But there are always troubles!"

"What's wrong?" Lockhart asked with concern, "Is anything dead?"

"No, but it's pretty much the same!" Hagrid said sadly, "Aragog, you don't know him, but I'll show you there when I have time, my first eight-legged spider ......"

"Ah......" Lockhart remembered, "it'...... How's he doing?"

"He ......," Hagrid began to sob, tears streaming down his little dark eyes, and he wiped his face with his apron, "Aragog...... I think he's dying, he's been sick for a summer and hasn't gotten better...... I don't know if he ...... If he ...... What am I going to do...... We've been together for so long......"

"Hagrid, don't do that, everyone will die. Lockhart walked over to comfort Hagrid, "We have to be thankful for him, at least he made it through his life in peace." ”

"You're right, he's lucky...... Hagrid wiped away his tears, "maybe we're not going to end up like him, are we...... Damn mystery man ......"

"......" Lockhart also grieved, "Hagrid, things will be fine, Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic will deal with him." ”

"Gildero, is the magical creature protection class really annoying?" Hagrid suddenly remembered something, "Even Harry and Ron didn't choose either, the two of them said that there were too many classes, hmph, I don't understand what the situation is in the sixth year, there are very few classes......, right?"
