Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 140 Believe in your own vision

   "I think you guys have always been mysterious recently."

  As soon as Albert entered the dormitory, he noticed that the three of Fred, who had been talking in low voices, suddenly stopped talking. Obviously there was something that he didn't want him to know.

   "You guys have the nerve to say that we are mysterious?" George resisted the desire to complain, and rolled his eyes at Albert.

   "Yes, that's right!" Fred nodded tacitly.

   "What are you doing with Professor Broad?" Lee Jordan asked back, obviously trying to change the subject!

   "Help Professor Brod sort out some documents and materials. As you all know, my ancient runes are good." Albert didn't lie, he just made his words vague.

   "It's strange to believe you?" Fred pouted.

   "What were you talking about just now?" Albert asked back.

"you guess?"

   "Shouldn't you be planning to find the secret treasure of Gryffindor?" Albert looked suspiciously at a few people. He hadn't forgotten about the Gryffindor treasure map.

   "Well, do you want to come?" Lee Jordan asked.

   "You traitor." Fred waved his fist at Lee Jordan in dissatisfaction.

   "With Albert's help, our chances of success will be higher. The Forbidden Forest is not safe." Lee Jordan disagreed with the two. In his opinion, Albert was more reliable than the twins.

   "Let's forget it!" Albert shook his head and refused, "I think you should avoid going into the woods, Hagrid looks very angry, be careful of being locked up."

   "I just said he's definitely not interested," grunted George. "When you go into the woods, just don't get caught by Hagrid."

   "I knew you would say this, but don't go too deep. It is said that there is an acromantula farm in the Forbidden Forest, and the acromantula was carefully fed." Albert was not surprised at all, and reminded casually.

   "If you don't talk, no one will think you are dumb." Fred complained dissatisfiedly. This guy always said bad things accurately.

   "Okay." Albert took out McDougal's notes from his pocket and began to flip through them.

   "What is this?" George leaned over and asked.

"Professor Brod's friend lent me a note about ancient runes." Albert flipped through a few pages and found a letter written by Professor Brod to McDougall on it. Have you met Professor Broad before?

   "I feel that Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is very kind to you." Lee Jordan was a little jealous.

   "Our relationship is really good."

   "No, no, it's good and scary." George corrected.

   "Oh." Albert nodded to show that he knew.

  However, Albert believes that the relationship between the two parties depends on the exchange of knowledge. Two people who are also good at ancient runes communicate with each other, and the other party, as an older senior, gives his young junior some kind help.

  As Professor McGonagall said, he maintained friendly correspondence with those famous wizards, and he and Professor Brod only went one step further.

   After all, there is another layer of professor-student relationship between the two sides.

  From this notebook, it is not difficult to see that the relationship between Professor Broad and McDougal is similar to his own situation. The ancient runes discussed in the correspondence, or related to the correspondence left by other wizards, are all in the notebook.

  This part of the content is not too difficult for Albert, but it is very novel, which broadens his horizons.

   To the second half of the notebook, several years have passed, and McDougal has already graduated from Hogwarts.

  McDoug recorded on it that he was suddenly told to obtain a special identity, get the right to read a bunch of ancient documents, and began to learn some ancient spells.

   "Special identity?" Albert continued to look down.

  McDoug has begun to master how to use the ancient runes to cast spells.

   "I can feel it's special!"

  McDougal left such a sentence in his notebook.

   "It's late, aren't you still asleep?" Fred muttered in a daze, "Be careful that you won't get up tomorrow."

   "I'm asleep too, good night." Albert suppressed a yawn, turned off the lights, and fell asleep on the bed.

  The next day, when Albert woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

  Other people in the dormitory have gone out, Albert stretched out, leaned on the pillow, picked up the unfinished notebook from last night and continued to read.

  McDoug started to get in touch with some ancient magic. These spells are very powerful, but they are not too subtle.

  The notebook has the name of the spell, but there are no spells and gestures for casting the spell, which makes Albert a little disappointed.

  The next few pages are all about this matter, as well as McDougal's guess about the ancient runes.

  From the records, it is not difficult to see that McDougal researched and explored the special features of the ancient runes, but he found nothing.

   Albert noticed one thing, which was mentioned in the letter exchange between McDougal and Dumbledore. They were discussing the topic of Dumbledore asking the Patronus to speak.

  Unfortunately, there is no following text, and the following written records did not mention this matter again. Moreover, this notebook is also over, there is no more content, it should be said that there may be another one.

   "Can I feel its specialness?" Albert quickly got up and went to Professor Broad's office.

   McDougal came, but he looked a little tired.

   "Have you finished reading?" McDougal noticed that Albert was holding his notebook.

   "Yes, I finished reading it, but unfortunately, I still didn't find what I wanted. There should be another half of the notes, right?" Albert asked tentatively.

   "No more." McDougal shook his head.

   "No more?" Albert was a little surprised, the other party actually said no more?

   "Well, I was just making a little joke." McDougal said with a smile: "However, there are really no more. You need to know, why are rune characters considered magical characters?"

   "You mean, when carving, magical power was injected into it?" Albert expressed his guess.

"Yes, but it's not right." McDoug said softly, "I can't tell you the real answer, because my cognition is based on my understanding of runes. If you can't reach that level, it will be difficult to understand , and use it."

   Albert was silent, quietly listening to McDougal continue.

   "You need to be very proficient in using runes, followed by having a strong magical power as a foundation. And then you need to be proficient in using ancient spells." McDougal said, "These are the three processes I have gone through."

"The first step, you have already done it, but your magic power is not strong enough, and you are not familiar with the magic using ancient runes, but fortunately, you have already touched that hurdle, and it will not be too far to cross it gone."

   Albert's mouth twitched, he hated this kind of vague statement.

  You are not a magic stick.

   Explain things clearly to me!

   Otherwise, simply put the experience into the skills of the magic text, so that the magic text can be directly upgraded to level 3, and then there will be no so much trouble.

  At this time, Albert suddenly remembered something again, "Professor Brod, can you give me a certificate, I want to borrow books about ancient runes in the restricted area."

   "Okay!" Professor Brod actually agreed, he turned around and wrote on the parchment: Mr. Albert Anderson is allowed to borrow books on ancient runes in the restricted area. — Bud Broad.

   "Good luck." Albert muttered, and left with a note from Professor Brod.

   "Why didn't you tell him?" Professor Broad asked puzzled.

"What's the use of that, haven't I told you? You haven't learned it yet, and you still think I'm fooling you." McDougall glanced at Professor Broad, and continued, "Albert is a genius, We just need to give him some guidance, and you should trust your own eyes."
