Hogwarts in the shadows

The man in white robe seemed to have thought of something, "Wait, in your current state... have you read that book Animagi?"

"I did see it, but..."

Hephesus did read the book "Animagi", but his current condition was caused by the shadow of the dragon egg he swallowed, and it had nothing to do with the book!

"No wonder..." The man in white robe fell into deep thought.

No, no wonder!

Rather!

Hephis hated people who spoke half their sentences.

But he didn't dare to disturb him. What if the man in white robe could really think of a solution?

The man in white robes seemed to have finally figured it out, "I wrote Animagi."

"Huh? You wrote it." Hephis was stunned.

"I deduced it by combining the fragments I got from the ruins." The man in white robe continued, "Remember the rumor I mentioned just now?"

Hephis nodded, looking like he was listening attentively.

"Rumor has it that only families that have transplanted the blood of magical creatures can continue to exist forever."

The man in white robes paused, "And the families that have not been transplanted will not last more than a thousand years."

"It's just a rumor." Hephis didn't take it seriously.

"Although it is a rumor, it is more than just a rumor. I won't explain it to you in detail, because that person...you just need to know that this is a fact." The man in white robe smiled bitterly.

"Okay! What next?" Hephis didn't care about the continuation of his family. After all, he couldn't even be sure whether he was alive or dead.

"The ancestors of the Brian family have been looking for a method of blood transplantation, but unfortunately all the relevant information has disappeared."

The man in the white robe continued, "Some say it was Helga Hufflepuff who destroyed all the information in order to prevent wizards from continuing to harm magical creatures."

"Helga Hufflepuff?" Hephis asked in surprise.

"Well, it's just not confirmed."

"So you came up with Animagi?"

"Well, I want to use this method to give wizards the effect of blood transplantation."

"Did it succeed?" Hephis asked curiously.

The man in white robe looked at Hephes with a look that showed he was mentally retarded.

"Okay!" Hephis touched his nose, so embarrassed!

"I died because of my failure. That book is not perfect." The man in white robe said helplessly.

"Thank goodness..." Hephis muttered softly.

"What did you say?" The man in white robe didn't hear clearly.

"Nothing, you continue."

"The reason I've been staying here is actually because I'm unwilling to give up. I've been thinking and deducing possible solutions." The man in white robe's voice became increasingly low.

"Have you figured it out?" Hephis asked curiously.

The man in white robe choked and said awkwardly, "Almost there, almost there."

"It feels like something is pushing me." Hephis said in surprise and looked around.

"It seems that the space is beginning to reject you."

"That means I'm leaving, right?" Hephis was a little happy.

"Hephis, you are here because you invaded the brain of a magical creature. You will definitely go to your own Twilight Zone now. There you will see the magical creature, but you don't have a wand, so you must be careful. Defeat it and kill it, so that you can go back alive."

The man in white robe quickly told out all his speculations.

Uh...it seems like there was a misunderstanding!

Hephis could only nod and indicate that he would try his best.

The man in white robe pointed at his head and a silver thread was pulled out.

Hephis subconsciously wanted to conjure up a small bottle, and then the small bottle appeared out of thin air. Is it so convenient?

The silver thread slowly flowed into the vial, and Hephis put it in his arms.

"This is the result of my many years of research. Although it is not perfect yet, I hope it can be helpful to you." The man in white robe said solemnly.

"Thank you, ancestor. I'll be leaving now." Hephes bowed.

"Good luck to you." The man in white robe wished.

The pulling force gradually increased, Hephis gave up resistance and disappeared directly, and the sighs of the man in white robes echoed in the white space.

Hephis Dormitory——

The night passed quickly.

Hephis never broke out.

Theodore could only stand by and worry, but there was nothing he could do.

He had no choice but to ask Professor Snape for help.

After all, the class was about to start, and Professor Snape would know if Hephis could not show up.

When Snape arrived, he knew that the black egg contained Hephaestus.

My blood pressure suddenly soared and the blood vessels next to my temples started throbbing.

Asked Theodore, but Theodore hesitated and refused to say anything.

Moreover, Theodore kept his head down, so he couldn't use Legilimency.

Snape was so angry that he wanted to give Theodore a dose of truth serum, but after thinking it over he gave up.

Snape circled around the black egg, his wand waving constantly and spells coming out of his mouth quickly.

In the end, he still couldn't figure out the reason.

He held the bottle of unicorn blood in his hand and wanted to feed Hephaestus, but he didn't know where to start.

There was really no other choice, Snape could only ask for help.

A doe appeared and quickly left.

A moment later, Dumbledore arrived.

Faced with Dumbledore's questioning, Theodore still lowered his head and refused to say anything even if he was beaten to death.

Dumbledore was helpless and could only wave his wand at the black egg.

There are many black lines on Hephis' body in the black egg that connect it to the eggshell.

Hephes closed his eyes and slept quietly. His heart was beating steadily and he did not seem to be in danger of death.

This was the first time Dumbledore had encountered such a situation in all his years.

He wanted to move Hephis to the principal's office to be under his care.

But Theodore refused to do so and insisted on staying wherever Hephesus was.

Snape even tried glaring, but it was useless.

In the end, it was Dumbledore who spoke, and Theodore and Dan went to the principal's office.

And he allowed Theodore to skip classes for the next two days and stay with Hephes.

But if Hephis hasn't woken up on the third day, Theodore must go to class, and can come to the principal's office after class every day.

Theodore looked at Dumbledore, who was smiling, and then at Snape, whose face was as black as an egg, and could only nod in agreement.

Dumbledore cast an Disillusionment Charm and took Theodore and the egg back to the headmaster's office.

Fox looked at the black egg curiously. What kind of magical creature was this? Did the old bee have a new love?

It looked at Theodore, who looked nervous, and felt relieved. It was not the old bee's, but the little wizard's.

He also issued a gag order that the portraits were not allowed to be circulated outside.

Dumbledore also wrote a note to Hermione himself.

The content of the note was roughly: he took Hephis out to do some business and would not be back to school for a few days.

Because the matter was urgent, Hephis didn't have time to inform her.

He felt very sorry for disturbing the young couple.

And explained that communication was inconvenient where Hephes was now.

But please rest assured Hermione, with him around, nothing will be a problem.
