A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 733
The Exclusive Wand Academy is located in the northeast corner of the floating island. In addition to the normal teaching facilities and buildings, there is a group of statues in the school that are more distinctive, dedicated to commemorating the first batch of people who got the exclusive wand and changed their destiny.The most notable of these is a wand-wielding Niffler named Valen.

Speaking of Warren, this is probably the most famous Sniff in the academy, and even Fantastic Beasts.Because at the beginning of the establishment of the school, Varen cooperated and recorded a batch of "teaching videos". Thousands of wizards who are not sensitive to magic power learned the functions and applicability of the exclusive magic wand in the same way as a sniffing wand. Learned.

“I’ve seen Valen a few times,” Winnie Valentine said in class, “and it has done things I’ve never thought of before with a dedicated wand, which has greatly expanded the usage scenarios and value of the dedicated wand. "

"There are no less than ten world-wide research topics that have been developed around or inspired by it, and the most influential one is 'Magic Power Reactivation Theory'. The research content is: Can the dead magic power be reactivated through acquired learning and practice? Activate and become like a normal wizard! There are rumors that Valen has got rid of the restriction of the exclusive wand, of course, it has not been confirmed..."

"What if it is confirmed?" A student asked.

"Suggesting that it might be the smartest snuffer ever, at least beyond the 1 low-magic wizards who participated in the study in a broad sense... Well, if you don't mind, let's continue with the class. By the way, Warren also knows more words than you. It wrote an article for the Daily Prophet. Although it was rejected, the article was later published in the Quibbler. You may have heard, 'Life on Mars journal'."

In the bamboo forest behind the college, there lived a nest of Niuxiu, brothers and sisters who were born in the same country as Warren. Every week, scientists in white coats would come and exchange ten to twenty small golden objects. 10 minutes of research time, unfortunately, these snuffers did not show superhuman intelligence-except that they are very good at playing crackle and explosion cards.Or something else.

Today, two unexpected guests came to the school.

"Albus, I have a secret to share with you." Scorpius said, the two stepped on the wet soil, and there was a crisp bird song in the bamboo forest.

"I'll wait for you to tell," said Albus.

"Dad has been a little disturbed these days—" "Oh," Albus said softly, with his head down and his toes on the ground, "I think it's because of my dad that he raided Malfoy Manor..." "And That's irrelevant." Scorpius said, "It's a guy named 'Nott', and Dad's been in a tizzy since he heard he was arrested by the Ministry of Magic for an investigation and his home was searched... I'm in Dad's office Found this."

He produced a small gold timepiece, and Albus stared blankly at the delicate hourglass set into the center of the timepiece.

"what is this?"

Scorpius took a deep breath, "Time-Turner."

"Time—what?"

"It allows people to travel through time," Scorpius said excitedly, "but the former Minister of Magic suspended all research, and the information of a department that I can't name was sealed. I saw these from my father's notebook Yes. My guess is that if the person who put the curse on Mom can be found and defeated, Mom will get better."

"But we—" Albus counted his fingers, "five years old."

"Yeah," Scorpius said despondently, "We can make an agreement, wait until we have the ability—for example, ten years later, and then use this thing to travel back in time and find the person who cursed the Greengrass family, defeat him."

"It's a deal," said Albus.

With two fingers hooked together, both of them giggled contentedly, and then they heard bursts of "crawling" and "twittering" voices in the distance, not like people, but like some kind of magical animal.

Albus and Scorpius exchanged glances, and moved cautiously toward the voice.Parting the bushes that were very tall for them, there was a hollow in the field of vision, and the two opened their mouths in surprise.They seem to have broken into the sniffing nest, a dozen sniffing are playing on the field full of bamboo leaves, some are smaller, with pink and gray fluff on their bodies, and a small table is placed in the center (should be Is it a table?), three snuffers are playing cards, and one of them has a huge stack of sequins next to it.

"It's a wizard card." Albus said, staring at the phantom emerging from the table.

"The gameplay is fighting the Dark Lord, which has become popular in recent years. You see, two-on-one." Scorpius said.

The two lay on the ground, watching with relish, they were only five years old, and their thoughts were far less complicated, "The Dark Lord's card is really good!" "Which one?" "The one with the smoothest fur, like velvet satin." Ah Without thinking about it, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and the light above his head seemed to become brighter.

The two raised their heads, and a sniffing cub that had just woken up pushed aside the leaves, yawned halfway, and they stared at them, no, to be precise, staring at the glowing small timepiece in Scorpius' hands device.

"Oops," Scorpius said.

"What?" Albus asked.

"Run!"

At the same time, the sniffing cubs yelled, the snuffers stopped fighting, and looked to one side in unison, including the ones that drilled the hole. They heard it right, right?Baby ran over by himself?All the Nifflers—except Varen—have bright eyes, and they are poor, especially when Varen comes to visit.

Varun turned his head unhappily, it was about to win again, this is it 1... How many times (?) it has won over its two younger brothers, the feeling of looting them is so wonderful, after looting Then hold a treasure-hunting contest and release water appropriately. The two younger brothers are stupid and don't hold grudges or beat them.

In sight, two children who were not as tall as the bushes staggered and ran uphill, and one of them was holding something that flickered in his hand.

Really baby?Varen tilted his head thinking, looking familiar.

Albus and Scorpius ran a distance, wheezing and panting, but the slight trembling of branches and the sound of bamboo leaves behind them not only did not disappear, but got closer, Albus caught a glimpse of a black shadow passing by from the corner of his eye. them.

"How to do?"

"Climb up the tree!"

They didn't have time to think about the possibility of this solution, but neither of them wanted to run down, so they picked a holly tree about a foot thick and covered with scabs, and pulled each other up, when Albus He was too tired to speak when he climbed to the nearest branch with Scorpius' help.

Scorpius poked Albus, and they both looked down.

A dozen of Nifflers covered with black fluff were watching them intently under the tree, and then a particularly conspicuous Niffler separated from the crowd and stood under the tree swaggeringly, looking up at Albus and Scorpius.

The special Niffler was of course Varun, staring at the Time-Turner in Scorpius' hand, with its flat mouth open wide.

"They want to steal the Time-Turner!" Scorpius yelled.

"Don't worry," said Albus, "I have traces on me, and Dad will come and find us. In theory, just hide in the trees until night—"

"I'm not as optimistic as you are," Scorpius said. "For example, I'm not sure if Sniff will climb trees?"

Albus was confused by this question, he didn't think about it at all, he said hesitantly: "Shouldn't—" The next second he saw a brown-red Nixie cub shaking its round figure Climbing up the tree, he immediately shut up, and the expression on his face became terrified.

Warren slapped that sniffing dog, and handed it a piece of candy.Then it made a thoughtful expression, and after a while, it took out a sound-transmitting mirror from its pocket. A few snuffers came over curiously, staring at the shiny mirror with bright eyes. He picked up a small wooden stick, which seemed ready to be swung at any moment.

The sound transmission mirror was connected, and Varen chirped and hung up the sound transmission mirror with satisfaction.After finishing all this, Varen stared at the two children on the tree in a daze.A little bored... It took out a can of candy, and Albus and Scorpius on the tree swallowed.

……

"Here." Scorpius said, snapping the air nimbly and slipping a candy to Albus.

"No, it's your turn," said Albus.He looked helplessly at the Xixiu under the tree, that Xixiu was so hateful, it threw candy into the sky one after another, he didn't even pay attention to the man who appeared not far away, it seemed to appear out of nowhere, Both startled when he spoke.

"You can come down, it's better for everyone," said Felix.

Albus almost fell from the tree, Scorpius was stuck in his throat by the sugar in his mouth, and his face flushed with anxiety, Felix pointed out his hand, his expression quickly eased, Albus patted Scorpius asked, "Who are you?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. Felix Haip." Felix said, and swipe his finger towards the holly tree. "The common problem of famous people is that they subconsciously think that everyone knows me."

Of course Albus and Scorpius had heard the name before, but they didn't react, but they couldn't care less about being surprised, the holly tree under their feet bent to one side, and they also tilted, the rough bark became smooth , like a slide, and then the two of them slid down uncontrollably. When approaching the ground, hundreds of branches grew wildly, intertwined with each other to form a bench.Felix sat on one side, lowering his head to talk to Varen.

"Oh... yeah... okay."

After the communication between one big and one small, Qi Qi looked at Albus and Scorpius who were a little uneasy.Albus dared to ask, "Hello? Are you really Hap-er, Professor? Sir? Headmaster?"

"Call me sir or professor, Albus," said Felix quietly.

"You know me?" Albus asked in surprise.

"Yeah," Felix was suddenly a little embarrassed: "But you may not have any impression. I got married the year before last, and I was cleaning the trench last year... But anyway, I am no stranger to you." He looked at Scorpius, "De I gave a wand when Raco and Astoria got married."

Scorpius' eyes widened.

"That wand made of snake wood with a core made of basilisk nerves!"

"That's right, I was interested in unicorn hair at first, but Mr. Ollivander said no, so I thought I also had some basilisk materials in my collection... I failed a few times along the way, and I don't need to guess why. But it doesn't matter ’” Felix said, “So can you show me the little timer you have? Seems better than the one the Knotts hid… probably the last two that got lost.”

Scorpius hid his hands behind his back vigilantly, tears rolling in his eyes.

"You want to take it away? No, I can't give it to you—"

"Well, you can keep it for now." Felix said thoughtfully: "Under normal circumstances, I should know in three days, and my wife will relay it... But it's hard to say, maybe I didn't see it. I I didn't pay much attention to it, and was distracted by another matter..." He paused, "Draco asked me for help, but I was not sure at the time, and now it's time to solve this problem."

Albus and Scorpius looked at him puzzled.

Felix blew into the palm of his hand.Then countless small runes spread out like petals, and pieced together a mirror in the air.But only the frame, the mirror part is empty.Then Felix rummaged in his pockets and pulled out a thumb-sized glass bottle, which he shook slightly, and Albus and Scorpius saw that the bottle contained a few wisps of golden mist.

"Recently, the consumption is a bit high, and it's hard to save."

Felix was talking to himself, he unscrewed the cork, picked out a wisp of golden mist with his little finger, and bounced it towards the mirror frame floating in mid-air.The golden mist quickly filled the gaps in the mirror as if it were alive, and then the tiny rune symbols illuminated layer by layer from the outer edge to the inside, and the golden mirror surface became smooth after a few seconds.

"Let me think... Astoria... No, it should be the Greengrass family." Felix said seriously.

The picture in the mirror kept flickering, and the figures and space were changing rapidly, making people dizzy, like wearing a pair of dirty glasses full of handprints to read a dictionary with small and dense handwriting.

Felix took the time to explain to the two children: "I don't know how to travel through time, the cost is too high, and I don't want others to interfere with time, but there are many things I can do, such as the issue of the Greengrass family curse. I need to go back to the past, just present everything that happened in front of my eyes...I couldn't do this kind of thing in the first few years, the energy alone was enough to cause headaches. Found it."

Albus, Scorpius, and Varun all looked into the mirror, and the image in the mirror was fixed in one place, and the picture was slightly clearer. It looked like a thin, pale, gloomy man with a mouse whisker, He was chanting words, and the blood flowed down his nostrils, curving and congealing in the air, turning into strange and beating black symbols amidst the sound of incantations.The picture was a bit scary, but Felix watched it with relish, and kept nodding while watching.

"It turned out to be like this. It is somewhat similar to the curse in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts. It is not aimed at specific people, but the Greengrass family. As long as the blood of this family is still there, the curse will not die. Release the accumulated curse power every few decades. Things will be much easier if you know the principle."

"Much easier?" Scorpius asked blankly.

"For example, you can design a magic to make the curse think that the Greengrass family has died out naturally...Of course, it's just an example. In fact, I have a better way." The mirror shattered, and Felix carefully faded the ray Put the golden mist into the glass bottle, and get busy.

Warren looked at it for a while, and took out various snacks from his pocket to distribute to the surrounding Nixiu and the two children. Albus and Scorpius realized that they were already hungry, and ate heartily. "What's that?" Scorpius asked, pointing to a jar, and he seemed to see the tentacles wriggling.

"Don't touch it, it's a pile of cockroaches." Albus glanced at it and said with experience.Scorpius looked at him oddly, and Albus said reluctantly, "If only you had a mischievous brother."

"Not much," said Scorpius wistfully, then brightened, "but maybe I'll have another brother, or sister."

"It's over." Felix said, snatching a piece of lava cake from Varen's hand and stuffing it into his mouth, "You're welcome, Varen has a Honeydukes lifetime discount card, not even me." Varen was beside him I yelled twice in dissatisfaction, didn't you use my name to do it?
"The curse...is gone? Mom is okay?" Scorpius asked with staring eyes. He tried to move his arms, hoping to experience a feeling similar to 'body light', but nothing happened.

Felix nodded, then shook his head again.

"The curse is indeed gone, but Astoria's body still needs to recuperate for a while, and I hope to catch up with the World Cup. Well, you have been out for too long, it is time to go back." He waved his hand, and Albus and Si Copi disappeared before his eyes.

Felix was lying on the holly wood bench, fiddling with the glass bottle containing the golden time energy with his fingers, his breathing slowed down, and his body gradually became transparent.As if separated by something.Varun picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at him.

Felix rolled his eyes.

"Hermione has bought you off completely. In fact, you can replace it with candy, and I will feel better..."

Varen immediately took out a brown wig from his pocket, put it on his head, and then leaned forward, looking like someone.It folded its hands in front of its chest, sneered (if possible) and thought: Huh, despair, big devil, our alliance was established more than ten years ago, it was established when we walked around the castle under the moon Strong friendship, nothing can destroy, cannot...

Varun turned his neck, sniffing the air.

"Deep-sea fish, some species may have never been discovered, so I don't know what the taste is like."

"Gudong." Varun swallowed, feeling that the unbreakable friendship had been challenged, and then there was the sound of swallowing saliva in unison, and a group of sniffing eyes looked over eagerly...
