Chapter 24 [Practical Guide Page Collection Challenge]
Dumbledore held the book in his hand and looked at Roque in front of him.
In my mind, I remembered the encounter with the little wizard.
When he went to pick up Roque from the orphanage, Dumbledore knew at first glance that he had come to the right place.
This is a young wizard who is far more intelligent than his peers.
He was glad that the whim of that day had come to pick up the little wizard himself.
Obviously, compared to Tom's time, Dumbledore did better this time, when he learned that the orphanage was about to be demolished, he gave Roque some money, and explained to the old Tom of the Leaky Cauldron, hoping that the other party could temporarily give Roque a place to live.
And old Tom also told him that the boy was very fond of reading, and he stayed in the house every day to read for a day.
Later, Dumbledore had a whimsical idea to let Hagrid leave Harry in the Leaky Cauldron, in addition to targeting Voldemort, the more important reason was to allow the two orphaned little wizards to learn friendship from getting along.
The two of them really got along well, Harry also learned a lot of useful knowledge under Roque's influence, and Roque also knew how to go shopping with his friends, which made Dumbledore even more pleased.
And today, after Flitwick came to tell him that Roque had finished the basic textbooks on his own, and had also learned the Patronus Charm and cast spells silently without a wand, it really surprised the well-informed Dumbledore.
Dumbledore kept saying that Tom Riddle was smart, the smartest student Hogwarts had ever seen.
Dumbledore thought that this was not a lie, but the appearance of Roque caused Dumbledore to slightly revise his evaluation of Tom.
Maybe the "smartest" is going to be crossed out here.
However, it also strengthened Dumbledore's determination that he would not let this young wizard with the same background go down the same path as Tom.
One of the Dark Lords was enough, he was too old to really see a teenage Tom Riddle show up.
……
Roque also took the "Wizard's Practical Guide" with a solemn face.
Dumbledore was also relieved to see that Roque didn't rush to ask him about ancient magic.
In fact, Dumbledore still knew a little about the use of ancient magic, after all, there was also an ancient magic guardian named Percival in his ancestors.
However, rather than blindly pursuing power, Dumbledore hoped that Roque would understand some precious qualities.
With Roque's current talent, it was only a matter of time before he became the strongest, and now that he Dumbledore was still alive, Voldemort was not a little wizard in such a danger.
Therefore, learning to take risks and learn friendship like other young wizards of the same age is more important than learning any magic than blindly becoming stronger.
A childhood with precious memories is more worth savoring than magic.
And how to teach Roque this, Dumbledore thought for a long time.
As an educator, Dumbledore had passed his time as a good teacher, and he now preferred to guide young wizards in their progress without offending them.
This was the case with Harry's plan, to set Harry on the path of courage himself, rather than going out of his way to tell him about the importance of courage.
But Roque's situation is different from Harry's, the other party is smarter and more talented, and it is definitely useless to teach Harry the means used to teach Roque.
The institutions set up in the corridor on the fourth floor are probably some pediatrics in his eyes.
Flitwick didn't give him much time, and the front foot told him that the back foot came with the child.
In desperation, Dumbledore could only borrow some "wisdom from his predecessors".
This Wizarding Guide is specially prepared for transfer students, and is said to help wizards learn more about the buildings in Hogwarts, as well as keep track of their learning progress.
The previous holder of the book also took the book with him on a variety of adventures.
Maybe there was a clue to ancient magic in this book, which Dumbledore didn't know.
If not, then this book can also help Roque a little favor, and if there is, then fine.
Because Dumbledore thought that it was far more meaningful for Roark to learn ancient magic during his adventures than to stay in the headmaster's office and teach them at a glance.
"Headmaster, can I open it?" Roque asked cautiously.
Dumbledore nodded, "Of course, it's yours now." ”
Roark took a breath and gently opened the book, and in an instant, a sky full of pages poured out of the book, and in less than a moment it merged into the castle of Hogwarts.
Dumbledore looked up, thoughtful.
Was this how transfer students were introduced to Hogwarts architecture a hundred years ago?
Not bad, not bad, very creative.
Dumbledore felt that this was much more creative than his own ideas, and he just used it to train Harry.
"Here's the page of a field guide." Dumbledore only saw the secret of the book at a glance: "These pages have been integrated into the castles of Hogwarts, and they will help you get to know this ancient building." ”
"When you hold the book and use 'original form' in the right place, the pages will appear."
"Of course, you can also try it out in the principal's office first." Dumbledore winked playfully at Roque.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the Sorting Hat awoke from its slumber and flew in front of Roque.
"Hey! What are you going to do to me?! ”
"The original form is now!"
Immediately in front of Roque, a page appeared describing the characteristics of the Sorting Hat.
[Sorting Hat]: "The Magic Hat, created by the four founders of Hogwarts, has been used by all students for thousands of years to find the house that suits them best." ”
At this time, Roque's [Combat Guide] sent out a slight vibration.
Roque opened the book, and it read-
[Challenge Unlocked]: Collect 2 "Field Guide Pages" at Hogwarts (1/2)
[Reward]: Hogwarts Royal Glasses.
Well?
The poor ghost Roque woke up instantly, although there was still a page left to receive it, but it really had the same rewards as the game.
Roque is familiar with the Wizard's Practical Guide, which is the name of the game's players - it can be understood as the name of the menu, equipment bar, map, mission, challenge, etc.
In the game, after the division of the school, a teacher gives you the book, and then unlocks the menu.
Of course, the main thing is that Roque has seen a lot of "echoes" of ancient magic in this book since just now, that is, the so-called magic of nature.
Maybe this book has a magical legacy that the player character puts in it.
"I hope this book helps you." Dumbledore opened a box of chocolate frogs and put them in his mouth.
Well...... Sure enough, I still like it a little sweeter.
"Go find your friends for dinner, they should all have a place for you in the auditorium."
Roque nodded, then walked out of the principal's office with Fawkes in his hand.
Unexpectedly, this time I picked up another handful of wool.
Sure enough, there are still a lot of gold coins that Lao Deng exploded.
