Chapter 172 End of January

On this day, everyone had a great time.

Luna, Susan, and Astoria even managed to each "abduct" a small tree person, taking them away to become their pets. The other girls showed more or less envious expressions, and all clamored for Xie Lin to bring them here to play next time.

Beautiful ladies always deserve more.

"Of course it's no problem," Xie Lin said, "You all did quite well today. Maybe you just need more time and patience. After a few more times, I think you should all be able to harvest your own little friends."

"These little guys are definitely worth your time to slowly build a relationship." Xie Lin said with some seriousness: "They are not simple pets, they can only be companions... If you truly treat them as companions, they can become your companions in life. They are born with a special connection with trees. With it, you never have to worry about getting lost in the woods——"

"Their small and nimble fingers can also be used to pick locks. If you encounter a magical door that cannot be opened with a lock-picking spell, then they can have unexpected effects. They will not be fooled by magic. . It is said that someone was once arrested by an American Auror, and he could not even use magic or his hands, so he escaped from the magic shackles by using a Bowtruckle."

In the following time, Schelling once again devoted himself to magic research.

After returning from Druela's funeral, he found that his "things to be studied" suddenly had a lot of new magic.

From last semester to the start of this semester, he had a lot of magical research progress that had been put on hold, such as the "Human Shape Restoration Spell" that can restore werewolves to their human form; for example, he got the Tugwood family's magic potion during the summer vacation. Notes, and want to invent a beauty potion to maintain youthful appearance; another example is the cultivation of dwarf cattails...

After the start of this semester, he first managed to complete the protective magic of "Guardian of the Gods", and then also completed the practice of "Human Transfiguration". However, he later found inspiration for the new magic "Magus Magus" from Dumbledore's "Abatail", and began research and practice for this purpose.

After the first project of the Triwizard Tournament, he didn't even find time to open the first page of the "Alchemy Lock Collection" he got from Nott.

Then he added the research on "Integrating Spiritual Wisdom into the Patron Saint", Snape's "Weaponless Flight", Mr. Zhang He's "Phantom Clone", Rochiel's family element magic, and "Bold Loyalty" Research on "Advanced Application of Mantra".

Damn it, even if he had a time turner, his brain wouldn't be enough.

It seems it's time to find some help.

Let’s start with the Book of Truth. Although this book is valuable, it only contains the first half of the book. If you want to make a flawed Philosopher’s Stone like Nico Flamel, you still have to rely on luck. . And this book may not be of much help to Schelling's current strength growth.

Enhancing strength is an urgent matter for Xie Lin. All other things, no matter how precious they are, should not take up his precious time.

He first used the elf to lead the way and visited old Nott.

Then he and Old Nott used the Floo network to apparate to Sardinia, Italy, the headquarters of the Medieval Wizards' Federation. Under the arrangement of Sister Gulana, the organization arranged for six of the top alchemists in Europe to study the "Book of Truth" with Old Nott. The research results will be shared by the Medieval Wizards' Federation, Old Nott, and Schelling, but only Schelling has the power to share with the fourth party.

Then there was the research on the "Red Loyalty Curse". He compiled the information he collected into a book and gave it to Daphne, Mo Rui and Zhang Qiu. Under the training of Sherrin in the past few years, Daphne and Murray have a very solid foundation in the use and improvement of magic spells. Ever since Zhang Qiu joined Professor Flitwick's Charms Club, he has also made rapid progress in the study of Charms. Xie Lin was relieved to leave it to the three of them. He couldn't believe it. With the wisdom and brainpower of the three of them, they couldn't compare to Bill Weasley in the original work?

Next is the cultivation of pygmy cattails. From this trip to Bowtruckle Island, it was not difficult for Schelling to see that Luna, Susan, and Astoria had special talents in the field of magical animals. Then, leave this matter to them. He didn't believe it. With the talents of the three of them, plus women's innate advantage of being close to magical animals, they couldn't compare to the Weasley twins in the original work?

The remaining items - Magus with the form, the wisdom of the patron saint, flight without weapons, phantom clones, and elemental magic inherited from the Rochiel family, are all related to his own combat effectiveness, which must not be faked by others. He could only bear the burden of the matter on his own.

Time passed day by day as Xie Lin devoted himself to boring study and research, and February came like this.

In Xie Lin's dormitory, Dobby stood respectfully in front of Xie Lin, reporting to Xie Lin in detail everything worth noting in the past month.

He told Sherling that Harry had solved the mystery of the golden egg by relying on a copy of "Mermaids: A History of Language and Customs" by Dylan Marwood that he accidentally picked up in the Gryffindor common room. Comprehensive Guide. The above description of the mermaid language allowed Harry to infer that the sharp sound made by the golden egg was actually the pronunciation of the mermaid language on land, so it needed to be put into the water to listen.

Next, Harry's research focus is on how to breathe underwater for an hour. Because of Hagrid's matter, he has ignited a fierce fighting spirit in his heart. In order to achieve Hagrid's expectations, he longs for a victory!

Because of this matter, Ron and Hermione both tried their best to help him, and together they consulted a large amount of information to help him come up with a way to breathe underwater.

Next is the second thing. Bathory has found out the identities of the five strangers who lurked into Hogsmeade Village.

Four of them are the notorious dark wizards in Knockturn Alley, and the fifth is most likely Blaise's mother, Mrs. Zabini. According to the deed that Sherin got last time, the vacant cottage where the five people stayed happened to belong to Mrs. Zabini's third husband who had passed away.

So, the enemies who came to trouble themselves this time have also surfaced one by one.

Eleanor and Katalin are Walpurgis's people. They have already connected with Hector Foley of the Ghost Society. The number of members of the Ghost Society is unknown, but it is definitely not too many. After all, they only accept senior students from Slytherin, and they have many requirements for background, strength, etc. After Schelling used the elimination method to calculate, he found that there were only 4 people who met the conditions at most.

However, Schelling would not underestimate their relationship with the Pureblood Supremacy Alliance. Although the two sides are not strictly in the same camp, they have cooperated to pit Schelling before. In other words, Irina Selwyn and Miles Blackie may also be involved. In this case, this group of enemies can have up to 8 people.

The second group of enemies is the Shadow of the Dragon. Although I don’t know why they dared to come to the door before I even went to the door, but it’s good that I can save the effort of looking for them. The number of enemies in this group is very clear, that is, five people, and they are all under surveillance.

Although these five people are all adult wizards, their strength is definitely stronger than the first group, but Schelling is not too worried about them. He is not the lone wolf in other fan fictions, he has companions!

Bathory, Annis, the little wolf, the house elves, Scrimgeour, the Aurors, the Greengrass family guards, the Nott family guards, the Silver Spear warriors...

You all, wait for me!

My cold dishes are about to be served!

There will be another chapter later, I missed a paragraph, and it needs to be revised
