Returning to the Room of Requirement, Ryan looked at Ravenclaw speechlessly.

"What's wrong with you?" Ravenclaw asked in his usual calm tone.

Ryan raised the token in front of him and sighed: "You have caused me a big trouble."

"Why do you think so?"

"Ms. Ravenclaw, do you know where this token came from?"

"It depends on what you mean," Ravenclaw said. "If you mean the person who comes to the Room of Requirement with the token, then it's your turbaned professor."

It was really Quirrell, Ryan slumped his shoulders as if resigned to his fate.

"If you want to ask about the true origin of this token," Ravenclaw's tone became darker, "then I can only tell you that I don't completely know. All I know is that this token belongs to a man named 'Hermitage' organization."

The Priory?Ryan frowned and shook his head. He didn't have any impression of this term.

It shouldn't be. If it's that kind of ancient organization, why does the man codenamed Wei Ge feel very...well, to put it politely, his personality doesn't match.

But he soon realized a rather terrifying information - at least in Ravenclaw's time, the Priory had already existed.

"Have you heard about this organization?" Ryan asked cautiously, "I heard them say that this organization recruits geniuses. Didn't you join them?"

"I received an invitation once," Ravenclaw said, "but I rejected them. I thought my wisdom did not need to be reflected by joining them. When I thought of them again, I had lost the qualification to join. "

"Are they only invited once?" Ryan asked. If so, he would consider this opportunity carefully.

"No, the reason they rejected me is because I am an adult." Ravenclaw said, "That's why I asked you to find this token. This may be of some use to you. Of course, you are not willing to join. , and I won’t interfere.”

Ryan nodded awkwardly. Why did Ravenclaw's words mean a resentment of "I was rejected because I am old"?

However, based on Ravenclaw's words, he vaguely guessed some intention of the Priory, which was to focus on underage wizards.

Maybe once you reach adulthood, you will automatically lose your identity in this organization.

This is also illustrated by the need for tokens to be recycled and reissued.

However, this obviously makes it impossible for the Priory to become a truly "sustainable" large organization.Because just absorbing little wizards would make it a play house for gifted children at best.

Ryan frowned, and a word appeared in his mind - "Presbyterian".

Wei Ge's attitude changed from trying to trick himself into inviting himself to join, precisely because of the sudden "Presbyterian Council's considerations."

Ryan probably guessed how the monastery operates, a "constellation society" that cultivates new blood, and the "presbyterian church" that is really hidden behind the scenes.

"What do they want to do?" Ryan had to be extremely wary of such a secretive organization.

"I don't know their true purpose." Ravenclaw said, "But when they were wooing me, they told me that their spiritual leader was Merlin, and their purpose was to inherit the wizard's civilization. Of course, the young me scoffed at this .But their behavior is not annoying, so you don’t need to be too suspicious.”

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief.

"But remember, don't trust too much." Ravenclaw continued, "First, I did not actually join this organization, but in my time, I have not heard of any evil done by this organization. The specific situation is unknown. Secondly, after thousands of years of inheritance, it is difficult to tell whether the essence of any organization has changed. Therefore, my suggestion is to stay away from it."

Ryan nodded in agreement.

Understand, take all the sugar-coated orders and shoot back all the shells. He is still very familiar with this routine.

Moreover, the monastery that Wei Ge invited him to join was, at best, nothing more than a children's horoscope party.

Ryan weighed the pros and cons and decided to follow Ravenclaw's advice and join first to check it out. Anyway, there was no agreement to sell oneself, so he could quit if it was not suitable.

He threw the token into the corner of the Room of Requirement.

Ryan didn't intend to bring the token with him. He didn't want to accidentally leak the token like Gwendelin.

If it fell in front of Quirrell's eyes, he could clean his neck and start running away.

When he thought of Gwendolen, Ryan remembered his to-do list.

He asked Ravenclaw: "Can a potion be manifested in the Room of Requirement?"

If there was a ready-made Polyjuice Potion, there would be no need for him to get the ingredients himself.

Ravenclaw shook his head: "The potion of time projection will lose its effect if you leave this room. This is still the best situation. The worse situation is to get sick or even die. This is similar to Gamp's law of transformation. And the real Of the potions that exist, I think you saw them in the house where the things were hidden, most of them have expired."

Ryan sighed, so do I still have to prepare the materials myself?

He counted the gold galleons in his pocket and shook his head with a wry smile.

Magic medicine will ruin three generations, and alchemy will ruin a lifetime.

If you are not a big dog, why do you play alchemy?

To steal Snape's treasure trove?A dangerous thought flashed through Ryan's mind.

Ryan quickly shook his head. He didn't have the audacious Halila to hate, nor did he have the quick-thinking Hermione as a "mouse".

It's also unlikely that Justin and Cedric would agree to pry open the old Bat's door.

Bernard is quite generous and will probably help, but this senior's personality is too out-of-the-box and unreliable. Ryan is afraid that he will be tricked in the end.

Forget it, let’s not ruin the old bat’s precious material.

If Snape caught him, Ryan would feel like he had nothing to gain from Shi Sanxiang's old and new grudges.

As a qualified young man, Ryan understands the principle of "taking care of yourself".

Looks like we have to make money!

After Ryan said goodbye to Ravenclaw, he was thinking about ways to make money on the way back to the dormitory.

He doesn't understand economics or finance.And with such a primitive and fragile market for wizards, Ryan didn't think there was any room or opportunity for arbitrage.

He was inside Hogwarts again, and the only interpersonal relationships around him were teachers and young wizards of the same age.

The pocket money of these little wizards is already thin enough, and Ryan can't bear to squeeze any more money from them.

Besides, they are born from the same root, so there is no need to rush into mutual conflict.Little wizards who are both suffering, naturally have to be considerate of each other.

You can’t cheat your own people!

However, the professors are all smart people, and they probably don’t have anything they can offer in exchange for benefits.

Moreover, once the professor finds out that he used money to buy potion ingredients, whether it is Professor McGonagall's "little wizard making trouble radar" or Snape's "old bat is watching you", he will be very passive.

Not to mention the great god Dumbledore is here.

Ryan sighed and took it one step at a time. He still had a lot of money left in his hand. If he used it sparingly, he should be able to buy some potion materials.

If it really doesn't work, it's no big deal to tear off the vest in front of Gwendelin.

Anyway, I didn't tell a lie, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
