Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 553 553. Time Converter

"Perhaps my grandfather had thought about it a long time ago. He deliberately cooperated with Mrs. Zabini to close the door."

Milton said in a choked voice.

"He just didn't want us involved."

Scott didn't contradict his words.

Although he didn't know if the old Mr. Graves really thought so, since Milton was willing to regard everything as his grandfather's kindness, he would not question it without a wink.

"it's here."

Scott stopped and looked up at the ceiling.

He raised his feet to stand on a chair, and then enlarged the chair, reaching the ceiling above his head.

Then, he raised his hand to touch the ceiling.

With the collision of magic power, several layers of complex magic text circuits appeared.

Obviously, Youdong XZ is in the middle of the ceiling, and these rune circuits serve to hide the fluctuations in magic power, which to a certain extent isolates Scott's magic power perception.

Scott broke through the ceiling and pulled out an inconspicuous stone.

Then, he shrank the chair again, returned to the ground, and carefully examined the stone in his hand.

"There's an alchemy item inside," he said to Milton.

Saying that, he broke the stone and took out a round metal sheet from it.

He observed the rune circuit engraved on the metal sheet, and forcibly activated the constant spell on it through magic power.

"It is a magic item used to break through space restrictions and positioning."

He gave the foil to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore looked down for a moment, then nodded.

"It should be a matching alchemy item. Ms. Slytherin also has an item that is similar to a port key. Together, they can break through the limitation of space magic in this room."

"It's similar to the feathers I used to position and jump spaces," Scott said.

"It seems that Ms. Slytherin's mastery of space magic is also amazing."

Dumbledore said, and handed the sheet metal in his hand to Mr. Graves.

"It must have been Zabini's work!"

Mr Graves said angrily.

"A while ago, this house was open to her, and she put this thing in the ceiling while we were not paying attention."

"We have no evidence to prove all this." Milton said, "Although she has been taken away by the Aurors, it is difficult for the Ministry of Magic to convict her of today's events."

Mr. Graves' voice trembled a little, "I know, she is a pureblood after all, and with the means she has always had, the right to speak in her hands cannot be underestimated."

Scott was a little annoyed, "Sorry, if I had perceived it as carefully as I do now..."

Milton shook his head.

"It's none of your business. At that time, we were all attracted by the movement outside, and you didn't have time to perceive it carefully."

"No, it's none of your business," said Mr. Graves. "You've done your best."

Despite what they all said, Scott was still somewhat dissatisfied with himself.

He believes that probably because his strength has improved too fast, he is not as cautious as before. This incident is not only a lesson, but also a warning.

He didn't speak, but secretly warned himself that he should not be so careless in the future, but should not let go of any details.

At this moment, Dumbledore patted him on the shoulder.

"I'm fine, Professor," Scott said. "I was just reflecting."

Dumbledore didn't say much, he comforted Mr. Graves and Milton, and then returned to Hogwarts with Scott.

Milton stayed at home, of course; his grandfather died, and he and Mr. Graves had to deal with the aftermath.

After returning to Hogwarts, Scott found that every student was looking at him curiously.

It seems that the sudden departure from class has spread throughout the campus.

"Scott, what happened before?"

"Professor Snape died with his nose crooked!"

"Twenty points deducted from Ravenclaw!"

Scott didn't say much to the classmates who accosted him, but told Roger and Eddie roughly what happened.

But about old Mr. Graves' lies, he kept them all under wraps.

Roger and Eddie were furious after hearing Scott's story.

They think that Medea is just better at disguising than Voldemort, and is essentially a Dark Lord who does things like Voldemort and has no bottom line.

While they were denouncing Medea, Scott was thinking about something else.

When I met Medea twice in a row, she was only attached to the ceramic doll and did not reveal her real body, which made it impossible for Scott to catch her.

It was a conundrum that Scott hadn't considered before.

Since mastering the unavoidable "Gungnir", he thought that his attack magic was enough, but faced with such a situation, he had no good way to do it.

Although "Gungnir" is called an inescapable supermagic, it is only limited to targets within the line of sight, and it does not ignore space distance like Odin's artifact in myths and legends.

If he wants to achieve that effect, unless he can combine the magic systems represented by "Gungnir" and "Yuktrazil" into one.

After having such an idea, he began to think carefully.

But it is a pity that these two kinds of super magic belong to the category of magic spells. Although Scott is quite talented in learning spells, he is not as handy as learning transfiguration. Not a good idea.

Whether it is "Gungnir" or "Yuktra Hill" are very complicated super magic, it is very difficult to learn only one of them, let alone the combination of the two.

The separate learning of these two kinds of super magic can still be traced. Scott can learn step by step based on the knowledge left by his predecessors, but if he wants to combine them, the difficulty is self-evident.

But if it can be done...

Scott began to imagine.

As long as the opponent's soul breath is captured when casting the spell, "Gungnir" will be able to break through the space and chase after him no matter where the opponent flees to the ends of the earth.

That is the real inescapable!

Thinking of this, Scott couldn't sit still.

He got up abruptly and walked out of the bedroom.

"Scott?"

"What are you going to do?"

Eddie and Roger asked.

"I've got some new ideas."

Scott dropped his sentence, ran to the common room and talked to Helena, and then came to the Response Room.

After the study door opened, Helena also came here through the wall.

After seeing Ravenclaw's portrait, Scott quickly told her his thoughts and asked her for help.

"Combined? I once had such an idea, but the difficulty was too great, so I didn't remind you."

Ravenclaw was not surprised.

"I think with the passage of time, when you have mastered those two kinds of super magic to a certain extent, you should be able to go in this direction."

Helena asked, "Do you think this is something Scott will be able to do in the future?"

"That's just what I expect from him," Ravenclaw said. "I'm not sure he can do it."

Scott asked, "If I want to do it, where should I start?"

"Initial runes." Ravenclaw said, "You have only mastered part of it so far."

"I think so." Scott nodded knowingly.

"But time may be running out," Helena said.

Scott said, "Time-Turner."

"It's also a way." Ravenclaw said, "Although the time-turner is overdrawing the future, for you, this is the best way to strengthen your chips."

"I have always been against students using Time Converter. If it is you, you can apply for one."

Helena frowned.

"Time-Turner is dangerous, remember, you can't go back more than five hours, and don't meet your past self."

Scott nodded.

He decided to go full fire.

In addition to applying for the Time-Turner, he was also planning to apply for the privilege of not going to class, and the right to use the crown.

With the help of Crown, more time can also be saved.

And in the experimental stage, with the assistance of arithmetic divination, it can also save him a lot of detours.

Without wasting any time, Scott left the Room of Requirement, explained his ideas to Dumbledore and Professor Flitwick respectively, and made applications.

Both Dumbledore and Professor Flitwick were very aware of the prophecy and the difficulties Scott would face, so they readily agreed to Scott's application.

Back in the dormitory, Scott told Roger and Eddie about his decision not to go to class in the future.

"I'll support you logistically."

Eddie said, patting his chest.

"Using Time-Turner, you need potions to replenish your strength and energy. By the way, if you have the help of Felicity Elixir at critical moments, you will be more likely to succeed. In short, you can leave the purchase of potions to me!"

Roger also said: "If you don't have time to eat, I can deliver it to you."

Scott was also polite, "Then leave it to you."

The application of the time-turner needs to be approved by the Ministry of Magic. Prior to this, Scott, Roger and Eddie took leave to attend the funeral of the old Mr. Graves.

The funeral took place at the top of the hill where old Mr. Graves' house stood.

In addition to their three roommates, Dumbledore, Professor Flitwick, and the original members of the "Tower of Babel" organization all came.

Of course, Milton's mother also came out of the [Odin's Eye] space.

At the funeral, Scott also saw Milton's uncle's family.

Compared with Milton's father, his uncle was more similar to the old Mr. Graves, even his unsmiling and cold personality was very similar.

The relationship between the two families does not seem close, and even a little alienated from each other.

No one at the funeral saw the body of old Mr. Graves, and the coffin, which had been placed among the flowers, had been tightly closed from the beginning.

In this regard, the others were not too surprised, they just thought that the body of the old Mr. Graves was destroyed by Medea.

But Milton secretly told Scott that what was inside the coffin was not the real body, but a stone of the same weight as the body.

"Father has never made up his mind." He whispered, "but uncle immediately carried out his order after he came back."

Scott did not comment on this, but only comforted, "This is the choice of the old Mr. Graves. He wants to protect your descendants."

Milton added: "Father and uncle had a big quarrel, and the relationship between our two families will become even more distant in the future."

Scott tapped him on the shoulder.

"Don't forget, you have a unique musical magic, which is also a unique inheritance. When you get married and have children, maybe you can develop a special family."

Milton shook his head.

"You know, I will never fall in love with anyone, and of course I have no intention of getting married."

It was only then that Scott remembered that his little friend seemed to be asexual.

He could only say: "In the future, you can adopt a child, or teach a few apprentices, or even develop a school of music magic."

Milton finally smiled, "That's too far away."

After the funeral, Uncle Milton's family left in a hurry, it is said that they were worried about Medea's revenge.

Scott was also a little worried that Medea, who was fooled by lies, really wanted revenge, so he let Milton's parents live together in the [Eye of Odin] space.

And Milton returned to Hogwarts with Scott.

Scott received the Time-Turner from Dumbledore the day after returning to Hogwarts.

Dumbledore told him that because of the help of Ms. Burns, Scott's application, which was in seventh grade this year, would be passed smoothly.

Scott patiently listened to Dumbledore's talk about the use of the Time Converter before thanking him and leaving.

Later, he took the crown from Professor Flitwick.

From this day on, Scott did not go to class again.

He strictly set his hourly course of action according to the frequency of use of the time converter, and arranged several studios through the Response Room that would not disturb each other, and then plunged into the ocean of learning.

The first thing he needs to overcome is the mastery of the rune runes for the first time.

Although the first encounter with runes was in the same line as the ancient runes he had learned before, that is, the runes, it was undoubtedly much more difficult to learn.

Each of these runes represents more and more complex meanings than runes, and also contains more powerful magical powers.

Not to mention the connections and combinations between different runes, which are even more profound and complicated.

Even with the help of the crown, Scott has spent a lot of effort.

In order to save time, he didn't even go back to the dormitory, but directly arranged the bedroom in the Response Room.

For a while, he practically disappeared from Hogwarts Castle.

Logistically, Eddie and Roger also took turns delivering meals to Scott on his schedule.

And because the time is not equal to each other, the frequency of their food delivery is not consistent with the three meals at Hogwarts. Scott needs far more than three meals a day, which requires them to go to the kitchen to order meals frequently.

Eddie and Roger needed to go to class, and later, Fred, George, Luna and several friends joined the ranks of taking turns delivering meals.

With everyone's help, Scott made the most of the Time Converter, and it only took him a month to initially master the initial runes.

Of course, one month is for everyone else.

For Scott, it took him half a year.
