Hogwarts White Knight

Chapter 78 The Forbidden Book Area

Even though Snape had fully considered the badness of these naughty boys and did not let them shoot at each other with wands but throw cushions, he obviously still underestimated the extent of their chaos.

After once again nimbly dodging a Neville that was bounced away by Dean, and grabbing his collar to his feet, Snape had to angrily terminate the attempt.

Because if he continues like this, he is not sure whether he will be trampled down by a bison falling from the sky like Quirrell in that Quidditch match.

He turned to Seamus, who had the best grasp of this spell, and Harry, who was the "victim", to stand at the front, "teasing" them with harmless little spells, and pointed out their mistakes harshly.

Everyone else, including the members of "Holly", repeatedly used their armor to protect themselves under the podium.

This would look just as messy, but at least no one would have to worry about being sent to the infirmary before get out of class ended.

At the moment, everything seems peaceful and nothing has changed in Hogwarts.

But Gawain never truly relaxed.

Even though it wasn't his intention in the first place, he was now involved in so much.

Indeed, Quirrell was hiding in the Forbidden Forest in embarrassment, but no one knew whether "that one" had any other means to sneak into the castle again.

Dumbledore did seal the passage from the Chamber of Secrets to the lake, but he and Gawain were not Parseltongues after all, and could not truly understand every corner of the Chamber of Secrets like the descendants.

Could it be that with Salazar's suspicious and cunning character, he would leave only such an open and honest path?

Even the trolls couldn't believe this.

And although Dumbledore still behaved naturally and smiled every day, Gawain had already felt his nervousness.

——Because he appeared in the auditorium earlier and earlier.

Many times, he had already left the castle with Fox before the students even arrived at the auditorium.

Not only Dumbledore, the professors are also busy with something.

At the "Holly" events for two or three weeks in a row, when Gawain wanted to invite Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall, they both refused with great regret and said that they would be very busy before Christmas.

Even Professor Sprout shook his head helplessly and threw him a bag of extra-large pistachios.

And it was obvious what they were busy with.

——The restricted corridor on the fourth floor.

It has been completely sealed there.

It's not a perfunctory lock that even Filch can sneak in and around twice, but it's completely hidden with a magic spell. Sometimes even at night, you can hear "clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clank" inside " sounded.

The only way Gawain can respond is to make good use of every minute of his time, whether it is learning spells, transfiguration, defense against the dark arts, or brewing potions.

Of course, History of Magic does not count.

As Christmas gets closer, Gawain becomes more and more familiar with his "gift". Although his current mastery of Transfiguration is still incomparable to Hermione, it is at least comparable to Harry's.

What really pleased him was his accumulation in Defense Against Dark Arts.

So far, in Holly's activities, they have gone through relatively simple spells such as "Expelliarmus" and "Armor Protection", and started to start with such spells as "Petrify Everything" and "Stop the Curse".

A more complex curse.

As the last regular event before Christmas, they've even started some attempts at "Tongtong Petrochemical" today.

"Gawain, do you have anything to do tonight?"

After the event, when Gawain was packing up the targets scattered on the floor, Harry came to him and said.

"Hagrid has been acting strange recently. He often doesn't come to dinner. I saw him in the library before. Ron and I would like to visit him at home. Do you want to come with us?"

After a moment's hesitation, Harry explained.

But Gawain believed that what Harry actually meant was, "Hagrid doesn't know if he's had a big one recently, so I want to drag a few more people along to prevent him from destroying himself."

But his question is one Gawain happens to know the answer to.

Because the books Hagrid went to the library to check out were provided by him, because he is the most direct person in charge of the "Hogwarts-Zabini Basilisk Breeding Project".

Although the basilisk's eyes have been completely covered and treated with magic spells, its huge body and extremely terrifying killing power cannot be underestimated.

Is there anyone more suitable to do this than a person who is more than ten feet tall, but loves this dangerous beast so much, and has quite a lot of care experience (mostly from personal experience)?

However, because of Professor Dumbledore's wishes, this matter has not yet been made public in the school, and only a small number of people involved are aware of it.

"Perhaps Hagrid has some hobbies? If you go to Hagrid's place, can you lend me the invisibility cloak?"

Gawain answered after using a levitating spell to pull up a dummy's head and stuff it back into the cabinet.

Recently, the professors have been busy "adding splendor" to the corridor on the fourth floor. He feels that now is a more appropriate time to sneak into the restricted book area and take a look.

After obtaining the two magical spells "Curse" and "Contract", Gawain has been wondering whether there were actually many similar things in the past, but they were lost because people couldn't distinguish them, or maybe It was like a "Witches' Night" and was treated as a joke.

But based on Gawain's "reputation", Professor McGonagall will definitely not write a note; Professor Flitwick will ask him about his purpose in great detail, but will also shake his head and refuse with regret; Professor Snape... is Snape. Professor Nepp.

As for Professor Sprout?

Gawain's worst subject wasn't History of Magic.

"Okay," Harry shook his head regretfully, "It's under my bed. You can go back to the dormitory and get it."

When the nine o'clock bell just struck, Gawain opened the stone door where the Fat Lady was and set out from Gryffindor Tower.

He held a flashlight in his right hand, and his whole body was hidden under his cloak, as if wrapped in an overly large sheet.

In order to avoid being blown up by the wind or exposed due to his movements during the action, he even used Zoke's strong peelable glue to fix his waist and legs.

But this invisibility cloak is indeed a completely magical thing.

It is not the "inferior product" woven from the fur of invisible beasts sold in Diagon Alley. Its effectiveness will not fade over time. Not only is it light, but the invisibility effect is very thorough and stable.

Easily bypassing Filch and Mrs. Norris, Gawain arrived at the door of the library, made a face with Mrs. Pince who had just left, and walked around the rope that separated the restricted book area from the ordinary area.

ps: It’s a rope in the original book, but it’s a door in the movie. The original work shall prevail here.
