Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1270 The way to defeat Voldemort (2)

"Once upon a time, there were three brothers who were traveling along a secluded path. It was almost dusk, and as they walked, they came to a river, but the river was too deep to wade through, and it was dangerous to swim across. Magic, with a wave of the wand, a bridge appeared over the treacherous river..."

  Hermione flipped through her notebook and began to tell Harry and Ron the story of the three brothers that she had translated from the "Tales of Beedle the Bard" that Dumbledore had given her.

  Harry grew up in the Muggle world, so he doesn't know much about wizards' fairy tales, but he has heard several versions of the three brothers recently, and the content of the stories is actually similar.

  However, Harry and Ron still listened patiently to Hermione's story, and the three always believed that this story contained some important information left to them by Dumbledore.

"...the third child lived until he was very old, and finally took off the cloak of invisibility and handed it to his son. Then he greeted death like an old friend, and happily left the world with him as an equal. .”

"Thanks."

  Hermione took the butterbeer handed by Harry, drank some to moisten her throat and said, "This version of the story actually has the same content."

   As she spoke, she reached for the quill beside her and began to extract key points from the story of the three brothers:

  Three brothers, the bridge, death...

"Why is the bridge and the Grim Reaper considered the key points? Shouldn't the three items of Grim Reaper be the most important thing in this story?" Ron looked at what Hermione had written and said in confusion, "The most powerful wand in the world can make The Stone of Resurrection and the Invisibility Cloak of Death."

   "Of course they are the key points, but what you see is only the surface, there are other more important things." Hermione felt that Ron had missed the point.

"I remember Albert once said that this story is true." Ron became more and more excited as he got up from the armchair, "If Harry can get that invincible wand, he can definitely Easily defeat the mysterious man."

"That's right, that must be the case, otherwise even if we destroy all the Horcruxes, it will still be very difficult to defeat the Mysterious Man, but as long as Harry can get the Elder Wand, everything will be fine." Ron felt that he had completely seen through Knowing the real intention of Dumbledore to leave the book to Hermione, he hoped to guide Harry to find the old wand.

  Harry and Hermione looked at each other, although they also felt that what Ron said made sense, but where should they find the Elder Wand?

   "I think you'd better calm down."

  Harry looked at the emotional Ron, and cast a please look at Hermione.

  Hermione understood immediately, took out a wooden box from her handbag, opened it, and prepared to let Ron drink some tranquilizers, so as to calm down first.

   "Wait, you guys are..."

  Ron saw Hermione take out the bottle containing the sedative and forcefully stop him, then directly poured a small cup of sedative into his mouth.

   "Any more?" Hermione asked, breaking the spell.

   "I've calmed down." Ron said grimly.

   "That's good, let's have some more." Harry said with a smile.

"no thanks."

   "It's a nootropic."

After Harry took the cup from Hermione, he poured the potion directly into his mouth. It tasted very ordinary, but there was nothing he could do. The candy Albert gave had already been eaten, so they could only use the potion made by Hermione. .

  After all three of them drank intelligence enhancers, they went directly to the topic after their thoughts became clear.

"Even if the legend of the Elder Wand in the story of the three brothers is true, we don't know where to find the Elder Wand." Harry picked up the "Tales of Beedle the Bard", and continued Ron's previous topic. , "Also, don't forget, our news comes from Albert, he must also know the existence of such a wand, do you think that guy might not be interested in such a wand? Maybe he actually Been secretly looking for the whereabouts of the Elder Wand."

   "With Anderson's ability, he may have found the Elder Wand." Ron muttered softly, "I suspect that the wand he used is the legendary Elder Wand."

   "If Albert heard this, it wouldn't be too much to send you to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries."

  Hermione felt that Ron's words were too much, and almost directly negated all of Albert's efforts and achievements.

"You all grew up in Muggle families. You probably don't know that Muggle wizards have relatively average magical powers. This is one of the reasons why many pure-blood wizards don't marry Muggle wizards." Ron noticed Hermione's vote With a bad look, he quickly explained, "It's actually not a secret in wizard families."

   "Is Albert a special case?"

   "Yes, his magic power is unbelievably strong, it is really abnormal, so many wizards in the magic world suspect that guy is actually a descendant of a certain pure blood."

   "No." Harry shook his head.

   "What isn't?"

  Hermione and Ron looked at Harry together.

"His wand, not the Elder Wand," Harry explained, "Mr. Ollivander checked our wand during the Goblet of Fire, and Albert's wand is Mr. Ollivander. It is said to be a red cedar wand that can bring luck to the user."

"Look, I don't think Albert needs that too." Hermione agreed with Harry, "He's a smart guy, and he's so powerful, does he really want a wand that's destined to cause trouble? Anyway, I definitely don’t want to.”

"Don't be silly Hermione, who doesn't want a wand that can never lose, as long as Harry has it, he will definitely be able to defeat the You-Know-Who." Ron looked at Hermione with a foolish look and said, "As long as you Keep quiet, don't show off like the boss in the story, and you won't get in trouble for sure."

"I know how."

"What?"

   "For hundreds of years, there have been many stories about the Elder Wand in the wizarding world."

"Have it?"

   "Professor Binns mentioned it in class, if you listen carefully in history class."

Hermione flipped through the notes again, and showed the two of them the information she had collected in advance, "Death Rod, Fate Rod, they appear under different names and are usually owned by some dark wizards. I used to think that those were all fallacies, But if there were such a wand, something would make sense."

   "Although it makes sense by force, do I still think it's a little ridiculous?" Harry reminded: "I think the more powerful the wizard is, the more powerful his wand will be thought to be."

   "What do you mean?" Ron asked puzzled.

"If Albert tells others that he owns the Elder Wand, do you think others will believe it? And Dumbledore, what if he says he owns the Elder Wand?" Harry asked back, "Others will believe it, right? Like Ron suspecting that Albert has the Elder Wand."

   "Professor Binns did mention that he thinks some wizards just like to show off that their wands are better than others'." Hermione agreed with Harry's words.

   "Oh, well, but..." Ron was speechless, "We'd better find it and defeat the mysterious man with the help of the strongest wand."

   An invincible wand that never loses.

  Harry fell into a brief silence. If Albert really took the Elder Wand, would he lend it to himself to defeat Voldemort?

   Still, Albert is going to use it to defeat Voldemort.

  That’s not bad, but…

   "Harry, Harry..."

  Hermione's voice brought Harry back from his thoughts again.

   "Sometimes I really feel like a fool." Harry asked with a sigh, "Will Albert come to Bill's wedding?"

   "Yes, Fred said he will come back." Ron comforted, "You can find time to talk to him then"

"you're right."

  Harry took out his notebook and recorded what he was thinking just now. He couldn't wait to ask Albert more and more.

   Unfortunately, that guy basically doesn't say anything.

   This is so infuriating.
