Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 327: The Crown of Ravenclaw

Dumbledore did not pursue the matter of Fred and George hanging out in the middle of the night, and followed Albert forward into an alley among the garbage. After passing by the troll specimen, the two walked a short distance and stopped in front of a large cabinet with a blistered surface that looked like it had been splashed with strong acid.

"Last time, I hid the gold card of Mr. Hetok Dagworth here." Albert opened the cabinet door and pointed to the cage inside. The creatures in the cage had long since died. The skeleton has five legs. "Later, I came to study this thing again. I think this creature should be the legendary five-legged monster."

"I've never seen a five-legged monster, and almost no one knows where Delia Island is." Dumbledore also looked at the bones in the cage, shook his head and said, "However, your guess may be right. .”

"Where is the crown in the picture?" Dumbledore asked again.

"There!" Albert raised his finger and pointed to the top of the crate next to him, where there was an ugly bust of an old wizard with an old gray cap and a Rusty crown.

"It's here." Dumbledore reached out to get the crown, but was caught by Albert.

"What's wrong?" Dumbledore looked at Albert in confusion.

"I think it's better to bring dragonskin gloves. I heard that many black magic items are deadly. If they come into contact with the skin, it may cause serious consequences." Albert took out the dragonskin gloves from the pocket of his robe. Hand it to Dumbledore: "Although it's not certain whether the crown is a black magic item, it should be just in case, otherwise it would be really bad luck to lose your life."

Looking at Albert's serious expression, Dumbledore couldn't help being stunned. He took the dragon leather glove and said with a smile, "I was negligent."

Although Dumbledore felt that Albert was being too cautious, he was right in saying that many dark magic items were indeed dangerous.

When he put on the dragonskin gloves, he reached out and took the crown from the bust of the old wizard, put it in front of him and looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "You are right, this should be a black magic. Item, fortunately you didn't touch it, otherwise you don't know what terrible things will happen."

"Is it dangerous?" Albert asked.

"A very dangerous, very evil dark magic item." The smile on Dumbledore's face had disappeared, and he narrowed his eyes and looked up and down the crown, wondering what he was thinking.

Soon, Dumbledore's mood became cheerful again, and he took Albert out of the Room of Requirement, where he smiled and said to Albert, "You handled it right, Gryffindor plus fifty points ."

"Those, sir, I'll leave it to you, I'll go first!" Albert greeted Dumbledore and turned away.

"Very nice child." Dumbledore murmured as he watched Albert's departing back.

After he returned to the principal's room with the crown, the portraits who were pretending to be asleep immediately gathered.

"Is this the crown in the photo?"

"It does look a bit like Ravenclaw's crown."

"Can you be sure of its authenticity?"

"This... I'm not sure. After all, Ravenclaw's crown has been missing for thousands of years. However, we have a simple way to distinguish." Dumbledore told one of the headmasters: "Amando, please go look for Ms. Gray and invite her to the principal's office."

"Ms. Gray? I see."

Amando left soon after, having a portrait of himself in the Ravenclaw common room, where he used to have students who didn't attend class help pass the word.

"Dumbledore, are you looking for me?"

It didn't take long for Ms. Grey to arrive.

"There is something." Dumbledore pointed to the crown on the table and said: "I found it, can you tell me if this is the crown of the legendary Ravenclaw."

Ms. Gray's face was stunned for a moment, and she floated to the table, stared at the crown for a few seconds, and muttered, "It's very similar, but it can't be, it can't be at Hogwarts. "

"Where did you find it," Ms. Grey asked.

"In the Room of Requirement," Dumbledore added, "in that magical room on the eighth floor of the castle opposite the tapestry of Barnabas being beaten by the troll."

"Is this really Ravenclaw's crown?" Armando was shocked, knowing that Ravenclaw's crown had been missing for thousands of years.

"It can't be!" muttered Ms. Gray. "It should be in a hollow tree in the Albanian forest."

Now, as long as you're not stupid, you can guess Ms. Gray's identity from this sentence.

"Someone brought it back to school."

Actually, Dumbledore had already guessed what it was, and even guessed who brought Ravenclaw's crown back to the school.

"Ms. Grey, I regret to inform you that this Ravenclaw relic has been defiled by evil black magic."

"He's... likable. He's... empathetic... compassionate." Lady Grey was stunned, looking at Ravenclaw's crown in disbelief, muttering: " How could he do such a thing."

"Tom is very good at deceiving people with rhetoric," Dumbledore whispered. "You're not the only one who's been deceived by him..."

"Is there a strong black magic on the crown?" asked Armando, "Can it be restored?"

"It's very possible that Tom made the crown into a Horcrux," Dumbledore said softly. "It's a very evil black magic, and ordinary magic can't even harm it! I need to find something special. ."

"Horcuri!"

This time, all the principals of the past generations are fried!

"Fortunately, Mr. Anderson was very vigilant. When he found this thing, he made the correct way to deal with it, otherwise he would be in big trouble!" Dumbledore raised his wand, trying to clear the black magic on it, However, his magic had no effect.

"Can't even you do it?"

"Destroying a Horcrux requires very powerful destruction, and the black magic on the Horcrux cannot be resisted." Dumbledore shook his head and muttered.

"Use black magic, don't tell me you can't use it!" Phineas suddenly shouted, although Dumbledore had hardly used those black magic, he believed that Dumbledore would definitely use it.

"The Fierce Fire Spell, or the Avadada Life Spell, should be able to destroy it!" Dumbledore naturally had a way, and if there were other better options, he didn't really want to use those ways.

"Use the Killing Curse, it's not for people anyway, don't tell me you can't use it!" Phineas couldn't help but curled his lips, he really didn't like Dumbledore's hypocrisy.

"Shut up Phineas." An old witch waved her crutches at Phineas in a demonstrative manner, hitting him **** the head with the crutch if he said another word of nonsense.

"Destroy it, don't leave this wicked thing here~IndoMTL.com~ It makes us feel uncomfortable."

Other principals also said that things like Horcruxes are too evil, and no one knows what will happen if they are kept.

"Okay, Avada!"

The next moment, green light filled the entire principal's room.

After the green light dissipated, the crown seemed to vibrate violently, and then cracked open on the table in full view, blood-like, black and sticky stuff seeping out from the crown, and there was a very weak pain in the crown. scream.

"How could it be like this, how could it be..." Lady Grey was shocked that Ravenclaw's crown was ruined because the boy used evil black magic to defile it.

"Looks like I need to give Mr. Anderson another special contribution award!" Dumbledore said lightly.

He raised his wand and waved at the broken crown on the table, and the liquid completely disappeared. He reached out and picked up the damaged crown and put it in a box, and the others said solemnly, "By the way, please keep quiet about finding the Ravenclaw crown and Horcrux, this matter needs to be kept secret, this is very important, Very important. As for the crown, I'll get someone to try and fix it, but I can't guarantee it'll be fully repaired."

"Mr. Anderson?" Ms. Gray murmured. "Maybe, I should thank that kid, it's all thanks to him that I'm not being deceived."

Ravenclaw's crown was eventually ruined, and she regretted that she didn't trust the boy in the first place.

……

At this moment, Albert, who was listening to the lecture, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth happily. On his task panel, three more tasks were completed. It was a great harvest!

It seems that the Horcrux has been destroyed, and the principal is really resolute!
