Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 429: The body of obsession
,!
"This is the end of today's class." On the podium, the gloomy Potions professor glanced at everyone in the classroom, "Tomorrow is a rest day, but I think you may not be eligible to rest..."
"This weekend, everyone has to write an article about "The development process of the warming potion modified into the exorcising potion and the application scenarios of the two potions in the active age". At least fourteen inches long."
All the students in the classroom lowered their heads with bitter expressions on their faces, only Hermione waved her fist a little excitedly.
Snape glanced at Hermione expressionlessly, then turned his gaze to Sean next to him.
"The famous Mr. Wallop, in view of your skipping class a week ago, I can see that your paper is at least two feet long. Since you have skipped class, you must be very confident in your Potions, right? Then... those who can do more work."
"get out of class is over." Snape grabbed the textbooks, flung back the black cloak, and strode out of the classroom.
Only Xiao En and the other classmates looked at him sympathetically, with a distressed face.
Two feet, that's twenty-four inches, a full ten inches more than the others!
Sean lied weakly on the desk: "I can't live this day."
Hermione on the side packed her things and said, "You should be glad that Snape didn't even fail your Potions class directly - who skipped class in Hufflepuff last time? Snape put a big T on his final report card on the spot. That guy even asked Professor Sprout to intercede. He studied Potions like crazy in the second half of the semester, and finally got only a P."
t is troll - giant monster, p is poor - failed.
Sean waved his hand weakly: "I would rather he give me a failing grade - this week is really worse than life..."
In the week after Sean skipped class, Snape went all out in Potions class, and Harry even made a glorious history of not being penalized for three consecutive Potions classes—all thanks to Sean.
In the class just now, Sean was even ridiculed by Snape for a full ten minutes because the silver knife he had cut the medicinal materials was not placed properly.
"A person's state can be seen by the way he arranges his utensils-Mr. Wallop, have you paid attention to this class?"
"The deep-sea stone algae cut this time requires the silver knife to be cut at a specific angle. I can tell from the position of your silver knife that there is a slight deviation in your angle-this will cause instability when the potion is brewed, and splashing of the potion is almost inevitable...Of course, if you want to show a wave of going to the infirmary with a full head bag, I would be happy to see it."
"The way you extinguished the cauldron really disgusts me... What I taught you in the first class is so quickly forgotten? Oh, yes, the famous Mr. Wallop, who skipped class, of course has formed his own method of operation as a master of potions, hasn't he?——No? Then do as I said!"
"Ravenclaw deducted five points."
Similar words kept appearing in Potions class this week, but Sean couldn't refute any of them, even if his operation was fine, even if everyone knew that Snape was deliberately picking on him.
Who made himself really absent from a class?
If it wasn't for the recent events that gave Sean a lot of extra points, I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough for Snape to deduct...
Sean sighed and took the things Hermione helped him pack up, and looked at the other side helplessly: "That, respected and knowledgeable Miss Granger..."
Hermione turned sharply, leaving him with long, shaggy brown hair.
"No way, don't think I'll write that extra ten inch paper for you, shameful and lazy Mr. Wallop."
"Don't, Hermione, help me, I usually copy your Potions paper..."
"Hmph, that's for you to learn from! And this time, Snape assigned you an extra homework!"
"It's up to you... Hey, don't go, wait for me, I'll treat you to lamb chops tonight..."
…
At night, Sean lay alone on the cushions of the Room of Requirement. Under his control, the ceiling of the Room of Requirement was turned into a starry night sky.
"It's rare to have a weekend to rest, this unlucky homework..."
Shawn held a hay lollipop in his mouth, and he swayed his legs in a shapeless manner.
Hermione has been a lot stricter with him recently. During dinner, Sean talked about everything, and Hermione agreed to help him write four inches, which means that the remaining twenty inches still has to be relied on by himself.
"Damn..." Sean sighed.
He is really not very good at writing papers.
"I don't know what the largest font size I can use...Maybe I can use a quill with a thicker handwriting..." The sad boy has already begun to think of all kinds of crooked ways.
Just thinking about it for a while, Sean sadly realized that if he really did this, he might have to be targeted by Snape for another week.
"I'll write it tomorrow, it hurts to think about it now."
He bit off the hay lollipop in his mouth, chewed hard a few times, and then swallowed it in one breath.
Let's think about other things first.
The results of the investigation into Lockhart were in, and the professors administered Veritaserum and sleeping potions and asked every imaginable question.
Not much to gain.
During the period, Professor Flitwick tried to extract some of Lockhart's memories to see the situation, but the other party's accomplishments in memory spells were really amazing.
Even when he completely lost the ability to resist, the memory in Lockhart's head seemed to have taken root, and he couldn't extract it no matter what.
In the end, I could only return to the interrogation method of using veritaserum.
The information obtained is similar to what Sean guessed - from the perspective of a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, or even a normal wizard's perspective, Lockhart undoubtedly failed. But from an undercover perspective, Lockhart was quite successful.
He extracted and destroyed all his previous relevant memories. Some important memories that could not be destroyed were also modified at key links. All that remained were recent partial memories, and all the information he asked was known.
The only new discovery is that the professors got some information about the black rhombohedral crystal.
In Lockhart's memory, the returnee referred to the black diamond-shaped crystal as the "obsession body" in the emergency contact. It also mentioned that the so-called obsession body is something that has been inherited for a long time. It is very important, and Lockhart should get it back at all costs.
Shawn has never heard of the name Obsession Body, not only him, but even the professors have never heard of it. Only Professor Baburin of Ancient Runes said that the Obsession Body may be related to ancient runes.
It is really impossible to analyze anything from the name alone, but what can match Xiao En's guess is that this obsession is indeed very important, at least for the returnees.
From this, it can also be seen that the returnees' plan for themselves was inevitable, but what they didn't expect was that the barrier that trapped Sean and Dawson together became the best cover for Sean to release his restrictions.
It is estimated that they would never have imagined that the outstanding Max Dawson, coupled with the controllable Mouth of Silence, plus the help of the dementors, would not even be able to catch a fourth-year student like Sean.
Shawn didn't really feel that he had thwarted the opponent's plan.
It can only be said that time is fate.
Dark creatures like the Mouth of Silence and the Dementor were completely restrained by Sean's Dark Sleeper, and the enemy kindly helped him close the curtains with this method of not being able to see the light.
For Sean, the more urgent thing is always the next thing, and the plans of the returnees obviously don't stop there.
This obsession body may be a good direction to investigate, but Sean has never heard of this name. In my impression, Grindelwald mentioned to himself some ancient and hidden magic, magic props, etc. from time to time in the past, but there was no such name in it.
However, some clues can be seen in the contact Lockhart received.
It seems that the obsessive body does not need to be handled with special care, nor does it need any special magic drive, otherwise Lockhart will be informed of this information during the emergency contact so that he can obtain it.
After thinking about it, Sean opened the ring and said hello, and soon, Cat Leopard Pudding brought up the box containing the obsessive body.
To be on the safe side, Sean put on a pair of thick dragon leather gloves, and opened the box carefully.
There is no change, and the defensive spells left by him are still intact.
The obsessive body is lying quietly in a box that can bind black magic items.
Sean got closer, and with his sensitivity to dark forces, he didn't notice anything wrong, and the high-precision speculum produced by the system didn't issue any warning.
"This thing itself seems harmless, but it may have various application scenarios with special methods..." Sean thought silently.
Checked again to make sure there was no problem before Sean took off the dragon leather gloves.
He moved closer again and carefully looked at the black crystal known as the obsessive body.
It is about 20 centimeters long and only 5 centimeters wide at its widest point. It is a very standard rhombus. Strangely, under the reflection of the torches of the Room of Requirement and the ceiling of the starry sky, there is no reflection on the pitch-black crystal surface.
It seems to absorb the bright light that hits the surface.
Sean tried to look inside the obsessive body, but he still couldn't see anything. There seemed to be only a vague mist inside.
Moreover, the obsessive body does not have the feeling that the dark props in the novel will **** people's mind in at a glance.
Sean tried to touch it at the end, and it was icy cold, like an ordinary crystal. However, even after touching it for a long time, the top will not become warm due to Sean's body temperature, and the obsessive body will still be the same as before.
The spell doesn't work well, and the touch doesn't work well. This thing seems like a stone that can't be affected.
"It's a bit strange," Xiao En touched his chin and thought, "I can obviously feel a magic power, but this magic power is not outstanding, but it will not be ignored by people. However, there is no movement in the past when various magic powers that sense magic power stimulate magic power..."
Just as Sean was thinking, there was a sudden knock on the wooden door of the Room of Requirement.
"Huh?" Sean put away the obsessive body and turned his head away.
With their own consent, Hermione and Daisy can directly push the door and come in, while others can't even see the door without Sean's consent. The only ones who can see and knock on the door are...
Sure enough, when Sean opened the door, the petite silver-haired girl was standing in the corridor looking up at him slightly.
This one really hasn't changed at all... Such a sentence popped out silently in Sean's mind.
"Good evening, Stephanie," Sean greeted.
"Good evening, Sean." Stephanie nodded at him.
Let the other party in, Sean closed the door and asked, "What's the matter, can you find me?"
As a girl who doesn't like to talk nonsense, Stephanie has always been direct.
She said straight to the point: "Sean, have you been troubled recently?"
Being caught off guard by the girl's question, Sean was taken aback for a moment, and then spread his hands: "Obviously yes—to be precise, I have always been troubled, but recently there have been more problems."
Even through the lady's glasses with gold frames, Stephanie's eyes are still shining. Although her charm ability has long been useless to Sean, it has to be said that the other party looks very beautiful.
"Because I was also involved in this matter that day, the professors also revealed some news to me. I discussed it with Professor Baburin, and finally agreed that this still involves ancient runes and ancient magic."
"Ancient runes..." Sean pressed his temple with some headaches.
My talent in ancient runes is really hopeless. Up to now, I have been struggling to support myself with the two points of talent in the Dumbledore elementary suit that I got back then... If it is still the original 0 point talent, Sean suspects that he can't even understand the introductory courses.
It's not that he doesn't want to remedy it, but that there is really no good way to remedy this talent.
The talent points he has drawn so far, excluding those directly added to the fixed talents, there are only a few talent points that can be freely allocated.
And Xiao En is a person who likes to specialize~IndoMTL.com~ It is not his character to increase the nine-point talent of Transfiguration to ten points, but to increase the two-point talent of ancient runes to three points.
Of course, his other talents are basically full now. If he can still get free distribution talent points in the future, Sean will definitely add them to the ancient runes.
He is now relying on Selma Murphy's make-up lessons and the monthly [Sigh of the Old Man] to keep up with the teaching progress of Professor Bablin...
"I'm really not very good at this..." Sean spread his hands helplessly.
Stephanie looked up at him with a blank expression on her face, but there were stars in her eyes.
"I can help you."
"Huh?" Sean didn't react for a moment.
"You need a huge source of information to analyze various things, and you are not very good at ancient runes, but I am very good at it." Stephanie said bluntly, "To be precise, in terms of knowledge reserve alone, I have more knowledge than the librarian Mrs. Pince."
"Because I really like reading." The girl said seriously.
