Hogwarts Archaeologist Toby

[——According to the tribe’s priests, this will bless them with good weather in the coming year, and also bless them with catching enough fish in the river so that they can have a full stomach. To be honest, the author thinks The deal went well. But again, the premise is that the sacrifices can only be livestock, not living people. 】

[This is just a relatively common example in ritual magic. The specific process will not be described to prevent curious little wizards from trying it randomly. As for the idea of ​​combining ritual magic with wands, you have to try to simplify the entire ritual process, remove unnecessary parts, and turn the necessary parts into spells. It is no less difficult than creating a spell, and every ritual magic requires Specially equipped with a completely different spell, the author has successfully used an example, which may give you some inspiration. The process is as follows——]

Harry was frightened and wanted to turn the page, but Percy snatched the magazine away.

"Oh, that's bad." Percy asked with an ugly face, "I originally planned to read this myself, and you should read the second half—you didn't finish the first part, did you, Harry?"

The result was palpable, and Harry was pale with fright.

"If saying this can make you feel better, the next page is the picture of the livestock being turned over. Bill crossed out that picture on purpose, but I still feel uncomfortable for a long time after reading it. Fortunately, you didn't see it. to that photo."

Harry was speechless.

He looked at the desserts that appeared on the dinner plate, his face was pale and frightening, and he didn't want to eat anything.

He carefully looked in the direction of the teacher's long table. In order to prevent Professor Highmore from finding out that he was secretly looking at him, Harry had to pretend to avert his gaze and glance around.

In fact, Toby couldn't find this, he was fighting for a bowl of pudding with Al.He actually lost to Al in the previous rib, which is a shame for archaeologists!

In the process of looking around, Harry noticed a hook-nosed professor. When he looked at each other through Professor Quirrell's scarf, he suddenly felt a burning sensation from the scar on his forehead.

"Are you all right?" Percy asked worriedly, still regretting his mistake.

"It's okay." Harry said enduring the pain, he realized that the hooked-nosed professor didn't seem to like him at all, and his eyes were terribly cold.

But no matter how scary it is, it seems that it is not as scary as Professor Haimer. How did he study those ritual magic with the disgust?The text description alone is scary enough.

The final fight ended with Al taking out a small shovel, and Toby, who had no weapons at all, put his own shovel in the office.

"Cough cough." Professor Dumbledore coughed twice suddenly, and Al and Toby sat down immediately, not even caring about pudding.

When the food was gone and the dinner finally came to an end, the students were all groggy, and Dumbledore stood up again.

"Now that everyone has eaten and drank enough, I want to say a few more words to you. At the beginning of the semester, I want to put forward a few things to pay attention to."

He mentioned the prohibition of students in the Forbidden Forest, the administrator Filch's request that students not cast spells in the corridors, and the vetting of Quidditch players.

"In addition, I would like to introduce a new professor of ancient magic, Toby Highmore!"

He extended his palm to Toby, who stood up and bowed slightly to all around. Harry clapped a little absent-mindedly, but it didn't matter. Toby's appearance was good, at least as good as the one with the same long hair. Compared with Snape, his smile was much more friendly, and he didn't look like a murderer who had predicted it in advance, which earned him a lot of applause.

"Toby Highmore was a former student of Hogwarts. He has traveled abroad for many years and is willing to share appropriate magical knowledge with everyone."

Dumbledore added an extra emphasis on the pronunciation of the word "suitable". Toby Quan pretended not to hear it, and still maintained a decent smile. He even forced a voice through his teeth to remind: "Mr. and Mrs. Longbottom."

Dumbledore paused, and then continued to speak calmly: "In addition to Professor Highmore, we also welcome his assistant to join the teaching staff—Mr. Al!"

Sniff stood up from the shrunken chair, swayed a little, straightened his body, and then asked Toby to put himself on top of Toby's head, standing higher than everyone else.

"Ah!" It said with a wave of its hand, and bowed gracefully.

The students below were stunned, and Toby had to take the lead in applauding. The applause gradually sounded and intensified, which was countless times bigger than the applause Toby received!

"I knew it! I knew it!"

Fred slammed the table and shouted, "I knew it would come!"

George clapped louder than him: "What's next? Let Peeves be the principal? I'm looking forward to it!"

But the professors haven't come to their senses yet, they were all frightened by this sudden decision - how can anyone let magical animals be the professors of Hogwarts? Not even assistants.

But Al didn't care, it jumped off Toby's head and raised an eyebrow at him proudly.

Toby cut, with an expression of envy and jealousy.

Then Toby walked up and down the long table, greeting the professors one by one, and shook their hands respectively.

Professor Flitwick smiled, Professor McGonagall was rather serious, Quirrell had a strange expression, and only Snape refused to reach out to hold Al's paw.

"You guys are messing around!" He lowered his voice and reprimanded.

Al spat at Snape, then fled on a miniature flying carpet.

Amidst the applause that seemed to never stop, Dumbledore lowered his voice and said, "But you still have to do the teaching yourself, don't try to be lazy, Toby."

Toby was suddenly interested in the silver cup on the table. He held the cup in his hand and looked at it, but he didn't look at Dumbledore.

"there's one more thing!"

Dumbledore's suddenly raised voice was extra loud, as if he was teaching someone a lesson.

The applause gradually died down, and Dumbledore looked at the students and said, "I must tell everyone, anyone who does not want to suffer an accident and die a painful death, please do not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor."

The cheers and applause stopped abruptly, and a few people laughed loudly, but it was only a few people.

Toby looked at Dumbledore for a moment.

tragic death?It's not that scary.

It's just a mechanism to protect the Philosopher's Stone, and it's not as exaggerated as the Forbidden Forest.

But it's always good to exaggerate, and Toby was pleased with the reaction of most of the students.

It's better to be afraid than to take the risk of approaching a werewolf during the full moon despite knowing the danger.

Afterwards, Dumbledore conjured up the lyrics of the school song amid the stiff expressions of the professors, and happily sang with everyone.

Harry couldn't get into it at all, he didn't laugh just now, but was staring at Toby Highmore in fear.

The corridor on the right side of the fourth floor is very dangerous, there is a possibility of tragic death——

Could it be Professor Highmore's office there? !
