A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 147 Practice Lesson ([-]) Key
All the Ravenclaw students laughed.

One of the girls said without hesitation: "Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of human beings."

They quickly lined up in the correct order, and in the dazzling light, the runes on them disappeared, replaced by a string of gorgeous and elegant English words shining on the wall: "Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure."

"That's right! That's it, this wall clearly represents Ravenclaw, and the other three walls..." Percy said excitedly.

"Represents the other three colleges!"

Everyone thought of this.

Under the guidance of this kind of thinking, the runes on the other three walls have also been deciphered one after another——

"Courage and fearlessness are my best friends." This is Godric Gryffindor's famous quote.

"Tough and honest, upright and loyal." This is what people say about Hufflepuff.

"Be with honor, and be with strength." This is what a famous Slytherin wizard in history said.

On the four walls, four lines of writing were shining brightly. Everyone subconsciously held their breath. Sure enough, the writing on the wall disappeared.

In the darkness, only the light from the wands in their hands acted as a light source, and these unobtrusive lights illuminated their excited faces.

An ordinary door appeared, as if it had always been there, and the students walked through it.

There is only one table inside, and on the table is a book manuscript, the name is: "An Important Manuscript".

Jeffrey turned to the first page, which read: "Collect all four keys, you can get out of here." Other than that, it was blank

He snorted, "Do we still need the key? Just push the door open and we'll be out..." He stopped talking suddenly, as if he was choking on his saliva.A layer of sweat quickly broke out on his face, "I, can we still find the door of the classroom?"

Looking at each other, Percy said to the air, "Professor Haip...are you there, Professor Haipu?"

No response.

"It seems that we have to collect all the keys." Wood scratched his head, "But where are they?"

"Of course it's east, south, west, and north. Remember the runes we saw in the tombstones?" Percy said to Penello.

"You mean...the story!"

"That's right." Percy said loudly, the tip of his nose flushed slightly with excitement, "The text on the tombstone records the information of this place, but there is actually another thing, which is one of the keys."

So, the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw students took out the parchments they had recorded before and arranged them as needed.

"I'm 3-1 here, who has 3-2?"

"I'm ahead of you, I'm 1-7."

They glued the parchments on the wall in order and looked at them carefully: "Obviously, ten are a group, a total of four groups."

"The first group is to introduce the background of the operation in 1842, which is similar to what Professor Haip said..."

"It doesn't matter," Jeffrey said.

Percy rolled his eyes and continued: "The second group introduced the terrain of this place, which is very simple, east, west, north, and the safe house in the center."

"The third and fourth groups were the troubles encountered by the staff of the Ministry of Magic at that time. Oh, although the concealment magic has failed, other protective measures are still in operation. Look here, one of the defenses is a large number of corpses, which are the little skeletons we met... ..."

"That's evil! Why didn't the Ministry of Magic arrest him?"

"Oh, I think maybe it's because they haven't had a Ministry of Magic..."

……

"What are the other defenses?"

"Voltebat, Enchanted Stone Statue, and Devil's Vine," said Percy, pointing to the writing on it.

"Very good~ It seems that we have to deal with similar things," Wood said: "The infernal corpse corresponds to the small skeleton, and it seems that there are similar substitutes in other places, but what I want to ask is, what is the Voldebat?"

"A fairly rare magical creature that looks like a black cloak, slithers on the ground, and hunts at night. Some people say that they are close relatives of dementors. In addition to their similar appearance, they are also restrained by the Patronus Charm." Percy said.

"Is there anyone here who can take the Patronus Charm?" Wood asked.

No one raised their hands.

Percy told part of the truth: "That's not the exam, Wood. No one would spend a lot of time learning a powerful spell they don't need."

Penello recalled: "Dean Flitwick mentioned this spell in class. I tried it a few times, and there was only some white mist. If someone guides..."

"But the Voldebat is quite a dangerous creature. The professor won't let us deal with it. I guess we will encounter a crow's nest then?" Percy speculated, but he believed that it was more or less likely.

"Stop the small talk, where do we start?" Jeffrey said.

"Tombstone group, we are most familiar with it, it can save time."

"very good."

They came out of the safe house, and Percy flattened his wand on the palm of his hand and whispered to it, "Show me the way."

A twirl of the wand designated his right hand, which was north.

"So we're going in the opposite direction, and we're going back to the tombstones," Percy said to everyone.

They returned to the group of tombstones again, and the Slytherin and Hufflepuff students pointed at the black stone tombstone in amazement.

"Look, the skeleton bones have turned into stones." Wood reminded.

The students of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw discovered that the little skeletons that had been scattered all over the place had all turned into broken stones.

"It's a very clever transformation technique, we didn't realize it at all at the time." A wizard picked up a stone and looked at it carefully.

A Ravenclaw girl said sadly: "I even hugged it, it looks cute."

Percy looked at her strangely, he pulled Penello and whispered, "Is she always like this?"

"She's a fan of magic puppets," Penello explained.

"Okay, let's search separately, it shouldn't be too difficult..."

After seven or eight minutes, a Hufflepuff student found a golden key in a rock.

"Where did you find it?"

Grover pointed to the broken stone not far away, Wood's eyes widened, "That's the little skeleton that attacked me, I kept it specially! I didn't expect the key to be hidden in its head."

"Very well, we have completed a quarter of the progress, and we will continue to work hard..." Percy was about to give a few words of encouragement when the Slytherin prefect Jeffrey walked over holding a box.

"what is this?"

"A treasure map," said Geoffrey.

"How could there be such a thing?" Percy's mind was in a mess, and the students gathered together, looking at the blueprints in the box.

The mark on it is very simple. In the southeast direction of the safe house, there is a pattern of a bottle, and next to it is a rune mark representing wealth.

At this moment, there was a muffled thunder-like sound in the sky——

"It seems that you guys had a great time... But I have to regret to inform you that this unexpected journey is temporarily over. Take your things and follow the guidance to get out of here."

An arrow appeared at their feet.

Ten minutes later, they returned to the ancient rune classroom, with dazed and dazed expressions on their faces.

"That's the end? Haven't you collected all the keys yet?"

On the podium, Felix smiled at them: "get out of class ends in a few minutes. In order to prevent you from being late, I must interrupt this adventure. But don't worry—"

"You will be there for the rest of the school year. In addition to the task of collecting four keys, you will also encounter many weird, simple and interesting small tasks..."

"Like that treasure map?"

"That's right, Jeffrey." Felix said, "The homework for this class is to analyze the runes you encountered and complete a paper no less than a foot long."
