Hogwarts: Starting with the creation of the One Ring

Chapter 104



Hearing Professor McGonagall's words, the other professors' faces were not very good.

Dumbledore, the old man who had been silent for a long time slowly raised his head, with a strong confidence in his eyes, glanced at everyone, and waited for Dumbledore to slowly speak:

"Take it easy, Minerva... I can't guarantee anything else, but in Voldemort's current state, it will take at least a year to break the spell I left behind to protect the Philosopher's Stone..."

Dumbledore had this confidence, the Philosopher's Stone was only put into the Mirror of Eris under the protection of his layers of spells, Voldemort was now just a remnant soul, and it was not so easy to take out the Philosopher's Stone.

There won't be a wizard in this world who can do this easily...

Except for the guy.

Dumbledore thought of Saruman, a mysterious wizard with superior transfiguration abilities than him, and transfiguration was the key to cracking the magic that protected the Philosopher's Stone...

From Nagini's intelligence, it can be learned that Voldemort and Saruman should have had contact.

"If the worst happens..."

A chill flashed in Dumbledore's eyes, if that was the case, as long as he was there, Voldemort would not be able to make any waves.

"My biggest concern is that those former Death Eaters, Dumbledore, there were many Death Eaters who escaped punishment through various means, if they knew that Voldemort had obtained the Philosopher's Stone, even if they would not support it openly, but the situation of secretly defecting would definitely happen."

"If they help Voldemort, I think the time when the Philosopher's Stone was taken out would be greatly advanced."

Snape had been a Death Eater, so he knew Death Eaters well, and those wavering guys would definitely fall back under his command once they heard that the former Dark Lord had returned.

Thinking of this, a wave of resentment rose in Snape's heart.

At first, he only thought that Quirrell was sent by Voldemort to steal the Philosopher's Stone, so Dumbledore wanted to use him, and Snape didn't say anything, but when he learned that Voldemort's remnant soul was hidden in Quirrell, Snape advised Dumbledore more than once to let him do it directly.

But Dumbledore never agreed.

Now okay, play off.

Whatever it said, the Philosopher's Stone was indeed in Voldemort's hands.

"This matter can't be publicized, if you let the Ministry of Magic know, Hogwarts will be in chaos, okay, I'll go see a few old friends later... Don't worry, Voldemort didn't come back to life that easily. "

Dumbledore looked at the worried professors and smiled slightly, his smile carried a magic power, which inexplicably calmed the professors' nervous emotions.

"Minerva, Severus, you two should search Quirrell's office carefully, he left in such a hurry, maybe we can find some clues..."

"Flitwick, you go contact the frescoes and ghosts in the castle and ask them to be careful recently to prevent someone from sneaking into the castle and doing something bad."

"Sprout... Can you please go to the school infirmary, invite Ms. Nagini to my office, I have something to discuss with her... Professor Binns... You go back to rest first..."

"Okay, let's get moving!"

Dumbledore clapped his hands, the professors took action, Snape took a deep look at Dumbledore, flicked his robe, and left in a hurry.

"Alas."

After everyone left, Dumbledore sighed and looked at Fawkes not far away.

Since casting the Chant of Light on it, although Fox has not attained nirvana, its vitality has become more and more vigorous.

"Old friend... Was I really wrong this time? But Harry..."

(Bade) Dumbledore thought of that prophecy and then shook his head self-deprecatingly.

"Still old, I would even doubt my decision... Although it is not known how Quirrell discovered the Philosopher's Stone, Voldemort wanted to be resurrected, and it was not so easy. "

Dumbledore opened the drawer and took out a box inside.

He opened the box, which contained an ugly curled soul sealed by magic, and Dumbledore looked at the ugly soul and muttered:

"Horcruxes... How could it be so easy? Tom... Everything will pay a price..."

Quirrell Office.

After Snape and McGonagall walked into the office, the residual smell of garlic made Snape's brow furrow, and he opened the window to allow fresh air outside.

From this window, the Black Lake could be seen, and Snape glanced over to find Altaïr and Hermione walking.

"Professor McGonagall, if you had supported me and had done something to Quirrell as soon as possible, these things would not have happened today."

"I trust Dumbledore."

Professor McGonagall walked over, and she also saw Altaïr and Hermione, and a soft color flashed in her eyes.

"Everyone is not omnipotent, Dumbledore has done a good job, and since he said Quirrell didn't get the Philosopher's Stone so easily, then I would like to believe him."

Professor McGonagall walked to her desk, looked at Snape, and asked rhetorically:

"There's still time to make amends, isn't there?"

Professor McGonagall said, took out her wand and clicked it, and the drawers in Quirrell's office were all opened, and all kinds of information flew out.

Snape didn't speak, he turned around and searched Quirrell's bookshelf.

With the help of magic, the two quickly searched Quirrell's office, and when Snape tried to leave, Professor McGonagall noticed something wrong.

She observed by a wall for a long time, looking at this and that, still a little undecided, and finally decided to go to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore quickly rushed over with Nagini, and after learning from Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore went to the wall to observe, and after about five minutes, his face changed slightly.

"There are traces of Transfiguration here, a very clever enchantment..."

Dumbledore took out his wand, waved it casually, and a wave of light flashed across the wall.

With a click, a crack appeared where Dumbledore's wand was pointing, and then as if something had shattered, a crimson board suddenly appeared on the wall. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )

"This enchantment..."

Dumbledore's face was a little suspicious, because this magical enchantment did not look like Quirrell could have made.

However, he didn't think much at the moment, and gently opened the mahogany board, revealing the contents inside.

Both McGonagall and Snape were a little surprised.

Because inside is a very familiar piece of parchment.

"Gandalf's diary..."

McGonagall whispered.

Dumbledore took out the parchment, opened it and looked at it carefully, and the surprise on his face became even stronger.

"If this is Quirrell's stuff... So that spider in the Forbidden Forest, did Voldemort get it? "

Dumbledore quickly read the contents of the parchment, he had learned a little about Shilobe from Altaïr and Shilobe when he was in the Forbidden Forest, but it was not comprehensive.

On this parchment, there is a detailed record of Shilobe's origin and origin.

"Fortunately, when Frodo left Rivendell, the elves presented him with a short knife and a starlight crystal bottle..."

"Starlight crystal bottle..."

Dumbledore glanced at Nagini, who remembered that yesterday Nagini said that the woman who had cursed her was holding a bottle with twinkling stars in her hand.

Could it be this thing?

There is also the potion that Gandalf mentions at the end of his diary, which turns people into animals...

The one who betrayed them ...

Is it Saruman? Or someone else?

Dumbledore pondered for a long time, handed the parchment to Snape and McGonagall, and the two quickly scanned the information on it, and both showed different expressions.

"I don't know what this parchment has to do with Quirrell yet... Although his ability was not enough to create such a secret magical enchantment, it was not impossible with Voldemort's help. "

"That spider monster in the Forbidden Forest, Shilobu... He knew Saruman and if this thing was brought by Voldemort, then what was his purpose? "

Dumbledore had a headache, his meditation basin already contained a lot of things, many questions had not yet been answered, and now new questions appeared.

"Let's discuss it at the next Order of the Phoenix meeting."

Dumbledore decided to think about this for now, he looked at Snape and said:

"Seal off Quirrell's office, don't let the little wizards in, I still have to deal with those directors, suddenly disappeared a professor, always give them an answer."

Dumbledore took the parchment from Snape's hand and turned to leave the office, Nagini thought about it and left with Professor McGonagall, she hadn't taught anyone else, so she planned to ask McGonagall.

Snape glanced at the shabby office, closed the door, cast a spell to completely close the place, and left without looking back.

Altaïr and Hermione walked around the Black Lake, intending to go back to the castle, just as Harry and Ron were leaving Hagrid's cabin.

"Why didn't Hagrid believe me?! It's obviously Snape..."

Harry's face was bright, it was clear that he didn't get the answer he wanted from Hagrid.

"Forget it... Let the professors worry about it, Harry, let's talk about our Defense Against the Dark Arts class on Friday, I can't wait..."

Ron saw Altaïr and Hermione, who closed his mouth and smiled awkwardly.

Harry glanced at Altaïr, as if he had made up his mind, walked up to his side and whispered:

"Altaïr, I hope you can do me a favor..."

"No problem, if it's not something against the school rules..."

Altaïr nodded, although he couldn't think of anything Harry would do for himself, but he didn't mind helping the other if it wasn't troublesome.

Harry's expression was a little embarrassed, he opened his mouth, hesitated a few times, and finally plucked up enough courage.

"I want you to help me pry open the door to Snape's office..."

"Are you crazy?"

Harry hadn't finished speaking, Altaïr hadn't answered, and Hermione had stopped talking.

She sneered and looked at Harry as if looking at another neurotic.

"It's not enough for you to violate the school rules yourself, do you still want to implicate Altaïr? To pry a professor's office? I don't know how you embarrassed to say such a thing! "

"What famous Harry Potter? You've already deducted one hundred and fifty points for Gryffindor! Look at what you've been up to lately! Now I still want to pull Altaïr to do bad things! It's hilarious! Idiot! "

Hermione cursed Harry angrily and reached out and tugged at Altaïr's sleeve.

"Let's go, Altaïr!".
