Marvel's Hogwarts Professor

"What problems will the wizarding world face in the future?"

Lockhart muttered to himself upon hearing the question raised by the prophet.

"That's right, Professor Lockhart." Grindelwald nodded: "I'm curious about your thoughts."

Hearing this, Lockhart smiled.

This is when he is a fool, a scholar who only knows academics and knows nothing about human nature.

I thought he would answer any question he asked.

Immediately, he made a haha: "Actually, I made a simple statistics based on books and the annual admission list of Hogwarts, and guessed the problem."

"Others, I haven't studied too much."

Grindelwald could naturally hear the perfunctory tone inside, but he wasn't angry either. This was just a simple test.

It would be best if the other party can tell it and let him find out.

Not saying it out means that the other person is not a wizard like Newt who only focuses on his own field and is poor in other aspects.

I have all the vigilance and awareness I should have.

Well, at least it won't be easy for Dumbledore to take advantage of him again.

Then, he heard the other party asking him back: "Mr. Prophet, I wonder what you think about the future development of the wizarding world?"

"When we communicated through letters before, I felt that you should have thought deeply about this."

After Grindelwald heard Lockhart asking him a question, he said, "Actually, I haven't thought much about this aspect. I saw your views in the newspaper last time, which inspired me a lot."

"The number of wizards is indeed shrinking now, and it will definitely become a big problem in the future."

"But I believe that with the emergence of meditation, the future development of the wizarding world will definitely usher in a new opportunity."

Hearing this, Lockhart sighed inwardly, but he was not surprised.

Let’s talk about the simple things!

It seems that they all understand this truth, especially since the other party is an old monster who has lived for who knows how many years.

Although we have communicated through letters before, this is our first meeting and we will not reveal our true inner thoughts.

What is really revealed is often silly and sweet.

With his thoughts turning, Lockhart continued the academic discussion.

It is impossible to talk freely about other things, but in terms of academics, as long as it does not involve the core, we can talk freely.

Through other aspects, the prophet's inner attitudes towards various groups can also be tested.

"Mr. Prophet, you are an expert in ancient runes. I have introduced runes to you before and also mailed a personal research material."

"I wonder what you think of these two runes?"

Lockhart's question made Grindelwald ponder for a moment.

He has also studied runes specifically, and he has to praise that this rune seems to present a new rune system.

Novel, systematic, and practical!

Yes, what surprised him most about this rune system was its practicality.

He is a typical interestist, and the first thing he looks at is actual value.

"Professor Lockhart, actually I haven't studied much about runes, but I can feel his charm."

"He is extremely helpful in all aspects of magic."

"From the improvement of mental power, the conversion of magic power, including spell casting, resonance with magic power, etc., it seems to be an all-round increase."

"I have to praise him. Compared with ancient runes, he is very practical. He can even achieve some magic through runes."

"Comparing the two, many runes can be used directly, while ancient runes require indirect methods, such as magic items, magic circles, etc."

"I think that for the fusion of the two types of runes, we can focus on how the ancient runes have direct attributes."

"."

Hearing the prophet talk about the differences between the runes he recognized and the ancient wishful runes, Lockhart was also slightly shocked.

Sure enough, different people have different perspectives.

This prophet's thinking is actually closer to the essence.

He had related ideas before, but he didn't summarize them. After listening to them, he found that they were indeed of great research significance.

Focusing on the point of direct and indirect, more research work can be carried out in the future.

It can even be used as a breakthrough point.

As expected of an old monster, he grasped the key points so quickly. It seemed that his previous thinking was correct.

It is to use the wisdom of the entire wizarding world, especially the wisdom of these top wizards, to help you deduce the new magic system.

You must not rely on the deformed magic system in the Marvel world. Without great luck, you are simply courting death.

Lockhart thought and praised.

Grindelwald saw Lockhart's reaction and nodded slightly.

Putting aside everything else, this Lockhart wizard has an obvious thirst for knowledge, and this is a point where he can break through.

Afterwards, the two continued to focus on the new chat direction, conducting academic exchanges while conducting various small experiments to obtain more information.

"Mr. Prophet, it turns out that the ancient rune 'wind' has so many meanings. The information I found in the Hogwarts library seems to be somewhat limited."

"I don't know if your family has more books on runes. If your family allows you to borrow them, I am willing to pay some price and borrow them for a period of time."

See how close you are to your pureblood family?

"Professor Lockhart, this is no problem. These are some of my collections. I happen to be interested in runes as well. We can just exchange them."

Grindelwald seemed to say casually, and then asked: "By the way, I heard before that Dumbledore also participated in the research of runes. It seems that Dumbledore is also very concerned about this aspect."

Well, how deep is the relationship between Dumbledore and Lockhart?

"The principal did participate in my research." Lockhart nodded and said, "He has given me a lot of help in this regard."

"For example, the initial meditation method, and later the Squib students entering Hogwarts, etc."

Lockhart simply answered and then began to ask: "Mr. Prophet, I feel that the ancient runes were originally inseparable from alchemy. This may cause a certain bias in the process of perfecting the rune system."

"what you think?"

After hearing this, Grindelwald thought for a while and said, "There is nothing wrong with your idea. It is indeed very possible."

"The will of the wizard directly determines the direction of the development of things. At that time, many wizards were very crazy in their pursuit of magic items."

"It's normal to focus more on the effect of runes on magic items."

"."

The communication between the two people was still superficial and deep at first.

But later, there became more and more tacit understanding.

You test me once, I tell you the answer, and then I test you again.

There are a lot of academic exchanges mixed in, so the temptation becomes natural.

In terms of academics, the two chatted openly. Except for some key information, there was not much caution in the rest of the chat.

In terms of probing, everyone will disclose certain information. As for whether it is true or false, it is up to the other party to judge, but they will definitely answer.

Such a tacit understanding allowed the two to quickly become familiar with each other.

At the same time, both parties gradually gained a certain impression of each other's character.

Well, to put it simply, it’s an old fox and a little fox.

The performance of the prophet made Lockhart sigh. He was indeed an old monster who had lived for many years. He had a strong control over the topic and was very cautious.

Lockhart's performance also surprised Grindelwald.

I originally thought he was an academic scholar, but I didn't expect him to be extremely good in all aspects.

Facing the various temptations he just faced, he dealt with them with ease and quickly formed a tacit understanding later on.

With such a tacit understanding.

When the two met for the first time, they seemed to communicate like friends they had not seen for many years.

Vaguely, he seemed to see his past self or Dumbledore, or even a combination of the two.

The same amazing talent, the same comprehensiveness.

Knowing how to advance and retreat will not cause embarrassing situations, and the details in all aspects are done very well.

However, the characteristics of the other party are obvious, that is, the other party's thirst for knowledge.

Grindelwald has to sigh, he is indeed a raven who came out of Ravenclaw, his greed for knowledge is clearly demonstrated.

As time passed by, the frequency of communication between the two gradually decreased.

They seemed very satisfied with this exchange and gained a lot of information.

Before it was about to end, Grindelwald seemed to have thought of something and said, "Professor Lockhart, I have to say that the emergence of meditation is of epoch-making significance."

"But again, I suggest you act a little more cautiously these days."

"Oh, can we talk in detail? Mr. Prophet." Lockhart asked as if he was curious.

"According to the information I received, you have not been submitting papers to journals such as Philosopher's Stone recently. During this period, there has been a lot of activity in the pure-blood family."

"Now, it is very close to the publication of the next issue of the journal, I suggest you pay attention." Grindelwald reminded.

Hearing this, Lockhart was a little stunned, as if Grindelwald's words suddenly woke him up, and said in a deep voice: "Thanks for the reminder, I will pay more attention to the movements of pure-blood families recently."

Then, as if he thought of something, he waved his magic wand, and an exquisite black gift box floated out of the air.

Then slowly fell in front of Grindelwald.

Looking at the gift box in front of him, Grindelwald was a little curious. His slight perception just now did not reveal any strange aura, not even the slightest energy fluctuation.

Explain that the gift box itself is a magic item.

And this gift needs a magic item to carry it, which shows that its value is definitely not low.

Seeing the curious look in his eyes, Lockhart introduced him: "Mr. Prophet, I had a great time chatting today, and your last reminder is very important to me."

"This gift is given to you. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future, and I hope we can become good friends in the future."

After hearing this, Grindelwald smiled and said, "Thank you Professor Lockhart."

Then, he waved away.

In the exchange just now, it was obvious that Professor Lockhart revealed his willingness to win over him and join his research.

This gift may be both a thank you and an invitation to win over the other person.

Of course he wouldn't be polite.

He just provided a key piece of information.

Lockhart saw a smile on his face after seeing the prophet put away the gift.

Academic exchanges only serve to seduce each other's curiosity.

A new piece of magical knowledge with unlimited potential will definitely be able to elicit information from the other party.

But if you want to convince the other party, you need new temptations.

And his gift is definitely attractive to the old monster.

As for the pure-blood family that the prophet just reminded him of, he didn't care.

Every move of the pure-blood family is now in his eyes, and he is now waiting for the opponent to start, and then severely damage them in one fell swoop.

Afterwards, the two wizards, each with his or her own thoughts, simply said goodbye and left.

There were only two finished wine glasses left on the table.

Nurmengard, Castle Study.

It's snowy outside, the cold wind is howling, and the magic stove in the study is burning brightly.

To drive away the cold from the empty study.

At this moment, suddenly.

call!

The blue flame rose up.

It then disappeared, revealing the figure of a middle-aged wizard with an owl on his shoulder.

It seems to be back to a familiar environment.

Nubi flapped his wings and flew up to the bracket beside the wall. At the same time, he changed his body shape, and an eagle gradually appeared.

Finally, he grasped the bracket tightly with his claws and looked around with sharp eyes.

At the same time, Grindelwald gently opened his hand, and the dark blue clothes automatically fell off and hung like a hanger on the side.

At the same time, as he walked towards his desk, his figure gradually changed. Return to your original appearance.

He has white hair and a slightly older face, but his energy is still there.

Sitting at the desk, he carefully reflected on this exchange with Lockhart.

After a moment, a trace of emotion appeared in his eyes.

He is a talent and a good prospect.

The only pity is that I have a good relationship with Dumbledore now.

But it doesn't matter. Later, we will have time to deal with it slowly.

He is very familiar with convincing the other person to join him.

Then, as if he thought of something, he waved his hand gently, and a black gift box was placed on the desk.

Reach out your wand and tap lightly.

In an instant, the gift box was opened.

But at the same time.

A breath of life rushed in.

He looked at a small bottle placed in the middle of the gift box, and inside the bottle was only a piece of emerald green powder the size of a fingernail.

Grindelwald's eyes fell into deep thought, and at the same time, a playful smile appeared on his face.

He reached for the bottle and poured a little out of it.

Feeling the huge life breath contained in this small amount of powder, swallow it without hesitation.

Then, close your eyes and feel the vitality slowly emerging from your body, nourishing your slightly aging body and soul.

After a moment, Grindelwald opened his eyes, a trace of surprise and fleeting greed flashed in his eyes.

This Professor Lockhart really has something.

I just don’t know. Does Dumbledore know?

If you didn't know, it's really interesting.

With his thoughts turning, Grindelwald waved his hand gently, and a white envelope appeared on the desk.

Seeing this, Grindelwald picked up the quill next to him and slowly wrote on the envelope.

"Explore the detailed plans of the British wizarding family against Lockhart."

"Mobilize the forces of European saints to coordinate the pure-blood family's plan and suppress Gilderoy Lockhart to the maximum extent."

"."

Conquering a person is most effective in times of difficulty.

This is his many years of experience.
