Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 129 Origin of Runes

   There was a brief silence in the room, and Albert didn't expect Professor Broad to talk about it so bluntly, but he still nodded, expressing that he understood.

  Indeed, ancient runes are no longer used nowadays, unless those ancient books need to be deciphered.

   As for, using it to cast spells?

  In Albert's cognition, Dumbledore may have this ability. It is questionable whether other people can use them skillfully.

  This is like when I first learned English in my previous life, I needed to look up the sentences in the English book word by word in order to connect them together and guess the original meaning of the sentence.

   "Can I see the runes on the parchment?" Albert pointed to the parchment on the table and asked Professor Brod.

   "Of course no problem." Professor Broad seemed curious about the level of Albert Rune's writing.

  He didn't expect the other party to understand it, so he didn't stop Albert from flipping through it, because the runes on the parchment itself were very broken.

With the consent of Professor Brod, Albert picked up the parchment and read it carefully. He found that the runes on it were very strange. Albert immediately recognized what these things were. They were similar to the ones he used not long ago. of runes.

  Different from the runes in the Muggle world, these runes are connected as one. If you want to decipher them, you need to study them one by one.

  Albert noticed that there were notes next to some runes, which should have been left by the ancient rune scripts, Professor Bathhida or Professor Brod.

   means...eye, tree, spring water...

   A few short words, but Albert frowned slightly. He felt as if he had touched something, but he couldn't remember it for the time being.

   "These runes...have been disrupted?" Albert asked uncertainly.

   "Yes, it's messed up." Professor Brod nodded and said, "As you can see, these runes are difficult to translate."

   "Well, it needs to be disassembled for research to understand." Albert said seriously.

   Could it be that ancient runes are like this?

   No, Albert has read the books woven by ancient runes, and the ones in front of him are obviously runes.

  However, I really don't know who is so idle to get such a pile of runes.

Albert didn't say this, but he did think so. Not many people can understand the runes themselves, and they are compiled into runes, and the runes are put together into a paragraph, and how many people Can you really understand it?

   Or are these runes actually made by Professor Bathhida for Professor Brod to practice ancient runes?

  Just as Albert was thinking, someone knocked on the office door.

Katrina McDougal appeared outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts office. She looked at Albert who was standing in front of the office desk and read the parchment in surprise. She couldn't help blinking, as if she was very curious about this guy. How come here.

  Albert also raised his head when the door was knocked, just in line with the eyes of Katrina who pushed the door open and entered. He just nodded slightly at the other party, and continued to focus on the parchment.

  The more he read the runes on the parchment, Albert felt something in his memory began to loosen, but he didn't seem to have guessed what was going on.

   "I just played two games of wizard chess with Mr. Anderson, and his chess skills are not bad." Professor Broad noticed Katrina's puzzled gaze and said casually. "However, Mr. Anderson seems to be interested in ancient runes. Katrina, sit down and play a game of chess with me."

  Professor Broad is optimistic about Albert.

   Katrina had already guessed this matter. After all, Albert is a genius, and geniuses will always be treated specially.

   "Focus." Professor Broad noticed that Katrina was distracted, and reminded him aloud: "Don't worry too much about other people, just concentrate on doing your own thing."

   "Hmm!" Katrina refocused on the chess game on the table. However, she still lost the chess game after all, and when she raised her head in a daze, she found that Albert was actually sitting on Professor Broad's desk, and he didn't know what he was writing.

   "How dare he..."

   "Professor, the runes on the parchment are not complete, right?" Albert took nearly half an hour to translate most of the runes by relying on his mastery of the runes.

   "Oh, why do you say that?" Professor Broad asked curiously. Albert is indeed right, the runes here are only part of it.

   "Well, I couldn't even make a sentence after I translated it." Albert took the parchment full of letters and walked over.

  I think these should be two famous poems in "The Word of God".

   ""Words of God", what is that?" Katrina cast her eyes on the parchment in Albert's hand and asked in doubt.

"Talk about the origin of runic characters." Albert said simply, "Odin exchanged an eye for the fountain of wisdom... In order to seek the mystery of higher wisdom, he hung himself on a tree for nine days and nine nights, and used a long The spear stabs itself, the blood falls on the ground and gathers into runes

   Albert even guessed and translated the rune into words, and then connected it with the things he had seen before to guess the approximate content.

   When he first translated, he really didn't react for a moment.

  Later, as the number of deciphered runes increased, Albert was able to piece together most of the content.

  Katrina looked confused, but she still knew what the runes were.

  Compared to Katrina, Professor Brod next to her looked shocked and incredible.

  Professor Broad never thought about it, but Albert actually interpreted it.

   Blind?

   No, this is unlikely.

   "By the way, are you sure you just learned the runes by yourself?" Professor Brod's face twitched continuously, and he roared loudly in his heart: "Are you ashamed to claim that you can barely understand it?"

  If this is barely understandable, what are other guys who are good at runes?

"Professor Brod?" Albert raised his head and called out in doubt, and the other party suddenly came back to his senses and explained with a smile: "I don't know too well, because I am also trying it myself, but I think it should be That's right."

"Professor Batheda will be very happy that you chose the ancient runes. If you are interested, please write to her, or go to the side..." Professor Brod thought about it, and felt that this was inappropriate, because He felt that Albert might not even need to go to class.

  To be honest, he still had a lot of runes left on the table. Albert didn't even use a magic word dictionary, so he disassembled, translated, and pieced together the runes.

  Professor Brod is not quite sure whether Professor Bathcida has this ability, but he is very clear that he certainly does not.
