Harry Potter: Martial Arts Professor at Hogwarts

Fox's singing stopped, Dumbledore gradually got out of that strange state, and slowly opened his eyes.

There are still fluctuations of magic power around, it seems that when he entered the strange state just now, someone cast a spell in the office.

In front of him, Snape in a black tulle robe stood at the door with a strange expression on his face.

Dumbledore sat back on the chair and asked calmly, "Did you see it all? Why are you here so late, and you haven't knocked on the door yet..."

"Actually I knocked." Snape stood at the door without answering his first question, "I heard footsteps in the office and Fox's voice, but there was no voice to let me in. "

Dumbledore tidied up his somewhat messy robe, "Yes, I was a little... involved just now, what's the matter? You need to report to me so late."

"Yes." Snape didn't have the slightest intention to go inside, and said from a distance, "That Quirinus Quirrell is also very problematic, wandering around the fourth floor of the castle in the middle of the night, it doesn't seem like he character."

"When Quirrell was teaching Muggle studies, he would not wander around the castle at all except in the office or library during class. I have a question."

"Why did you recruit two weirdos this year? One stays up most of the night, standing on the top of the tower to watch the moon, and the other stays up most of the night, wandering around in the castle."

Dumbledore coughed lightly, "Severus, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet? I remember that Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff will have your Potions class tomorrow morning."

Snape said softly: "I don't need to prepare. If those students can absorb every word I say, they don't need to worry about Potions class at all."

"Instead, it's the new course you arranged. How do you plan to arrange the class? There are a total of [-] subjects in the school, so the schedule should already be full? How do you plan to join the martial arts class?"

"Just now, Kong Nuo and I just finished the discussion about the first class." Dumbledore pointed out the window, the figure who jumped down from the tower.

"The first martial arts class will be postponed until next week. It will take a week for Kong Nuo to let all the students know about this brand new subject. Believe me, this subject will exceed your expectations."

Snape pursed his lips and said sarcastically, "It's really beyond my expectation, like some strange and clumsy dance."

Of course Dumbledore understood what Snape was referring to, and he didn't intend to refute at the moment. He shook his head slightly and said, "You can really learn it. The knowledge in that textbook is very practical."

"And I remember that there is also an "Introduction to Martial Arts Handbook: Shibu Chapter", which is about the preparation of potions, and the final state of the potions in it is also different from what we know."

"Really?" Snape showed a thoughtful expression instead, "At the time, I thought it was more like a cooking manual. Maybe those house elves would like this textbook very much."

"That's only part of it." Dumbledore corrected, "Perhaps I saw more when I was flipping through it."

"There is a potion refining method called 'Jiedan', which can condense the potion into thumb-sized pellets after the potion is finished."

"This form is more suitable for carrying, taking and storing. It is an unprecedented technique and very groundbreaking."

Snape turned around and prepared to leave the principal's office, "Well, I seem to be looking forward to Kong Nuo, Professor Kong's first martial arts class."

Dumbledore carefully put the "Martial Arts Introductory Manual" into the drawer, planning to study it carefully in the future when there is time.

Now Kong Nuo is no longer a knot in his heart, but a treasure house waiting to be excavated.He needs to settle down now and think about how to deal with Quirinus Quirrell.

Ever since Quirrell returned from the Black Forest of Albania, it seems to have become more and more abnormal.

To actually take the initiative to apply for a transfer to the Defense Against the Dark Arts Division, which is still recruiting, is completely unlike Quirrell's original character.

Quirrell was originally a timid and cautious wizard, very suitable for Muggles to study this subject.

"Why don't you try it out?" Dumbledore dug out a "Daily Prophet" from another drawer, which contained a report on the theft from Gringotts.

He walked to the bookcase again, and tapped on one of the shelves of the bookcase with his magic wand.The grid slowly disappeared, revealing a crystal clear ruby ​​inside.

This ruby ​​is called the Sorcerer's Stone, and it is an extremely powerful alchemy tool with infinite uses.Not only can touch stone into gold, but can even make elixir of life.

The maker of the Sorcerer's Stone, Nicole Flamel, is his long-forgotten friend and a legendary alchemist who has lived for six centuries by relying on the Sorcerer's Stone.

Dumbledore had previously received news that a goblin from Gringotts had disappeared, and the place of disappearance was the Black Forest in Albania.

There has always been a legend in this Albanian Black Forest. It is said that Voldemort did not die when he fell, but came to this Black Forest to hide.

It is for this reason that after discussing with Nick Flamel, he decided to transfer the Sorcerer's Stone to Hogwarts for his own safekeeping.

And on the day of his transfer, Gringotts was stolen, which made him connect the two recent accidents in Gringotts.

In addition, during the summer vacation, Chilo also went to the Black Forest of Albania...

Perhaps, there is some connection between these three things.

Dumbledore returned to the desk, took out a piece of paper, picked up a pen and wrote a few words on it:

Voldemort, Black Forest of Albania, The Missing Goblin, Theft at Gringotts, Philosopher's Stone, Elixir, Quirinus Quirrell.

He drew a line between Quirrell and the Philosopher's Stone, and at the same time put a question mark on the line, "Severus said that Quirrell was wandering around the castle, and Quirrell would never have done such a strange thing before... ..."

He connected the words Voldemort, the missing goblin and the Sorcerer's Stone together, "Voldemort is still alive, and he met the goblin who went there on vacation, and learned of the whereabouts of the Sorcerer's Stone...does he want to be resurrected?"

"Quirrell has also been to Albania." Dumbledore drew two more connecting lines, connecting the words Voldemort, Quirrell and the Black Forest of Albania together.

The entire context map gradually took shape on the paper, and he has now roughly calculated the causal relationship between these few things.

Of course, this is just a bold assumption, and what is needed next is careful verification.

What he said at the opening dinner was actually a temptation, and there is nothing on the fourth floor now

Today there is already an object of doubt.Then, the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor needs to have some arrangements that belong to the restricted area.

Dumbledore put the Philosopher's Stone on Quirrell's name, "Child, I hope you haven't gone astray..."
