Chapter 221 It Doesn’t Matter, I Have Confidence in You!

"I think you can help me, don't you?" Lockhart looked at Ivan expectantly, "You have such strength at a young age, you must have some skills to quickly improve your strength!"

"Do talent and hard work count?" Ivan raised his eyebrows and said hesitantly.

When Ivan made the three pieces of magic equipment for Lockhart, Ivan expected that Lockhart would get stuck in it after adapting to the rapid improvement in strength brought by this item.

This was also a trap he set deliberately in order to empty Lockhart's wallet.

Unexpectedly, Lockhart not only jumped in, but was not satisfied with this.

Thinking of this, Ivan shook his head and said.

"Professor Lockhart, I believe you should understand that there is no way for someone to become a master of magic easily."

"In such a short time, I can't even make you a few magic props to enhance your strength!" Ivan spread his hands and said that there was nothing he could do.

"What should we do then? I have made an appointment with several deans to show the Hogwarts students what a real wizard duel is at the next duel club!" Lockhart said in a panic.

Hearing this, Ivan couldn't help but rolled his eyes,

Want to duel with the three deans? You are so capable and courageous and you still need my help?

Professor Flitwick is a duel champion, and Snape's combat power is also top-notch. Professor Sprout may be slightly weaker than the two.

But no matter what, Professor Sprout can still serve as the dean of the college. Even if Lockhart uses magic tools, he will only be beaten.

One fight will reveal his true colors

"I told you before, I asked you to keep a low profile!" Ivan said speechlessly.

"This time it's not entirely my suggestion that Flitwick made first." Lockhart was quite helpless. He originally didn't want to agree, but there were too many people at the time and he really couldn't lose face to refuse.

Lockhart thought for a while with a frown on his face, and suddenly seemed to think of something. He stared at Ivan with bright eyes and said coldly after a long while.

"How about Hals, you play in my place?"

"It takes at least a month to brew the polyjuice potion!" Ivan rolled his eyes. Of course he knew what Lockhart was planning, and he said angrily.

"Add another thousand Galleons, this is my few savings." Lockhart gritted his teeth.

Ivan hesitated for a moment, and seeing that he had touched Lockhart's bottom line, he agreed.

"If that's the case, then it's not impossible for me to play in your place!"

In Hogwarts, there are not many opportunities to fight with several professors in the school for legitimate reasons. Even if it were not for those gold galleons, Ivan would consider agreeing.

"But didn't you just say that it would take a month to brew the Polyjuice Potion?" Lockhart asked doubtfully, thinking that Ivan would find another way to help him.

"For something as useful as Polyjuice Potion, you always have to keep a little reserve," Ivan explained casually.

The last time he went on a mission to explore Hogwarts, he boiled a large pot of polyjuice potion. However, because he had learned the Animagus, he only used it once, so there was a lot left over.

The corners of Lockhart's mouth twitched involuntarily, so his thousand galleons were wasted?

Lockhart was very distressed. His money was not brought by the strong wind, but earned by hard work writing books. He used the Oblivion Curse in order to collect all kinds of good story materials, and even risked being beaten to death. risks of

But remembering that the wound on his face showed no signs of healing and was still aching, Lockhart wisely swallowed the words that came to his lips.

"By the way, Professor Lockhart, I don't guarantee that I will win when the time comes." Ivan was vaccinated in advance.

Ivan knows his own strength very well.

Without counting blood magic and prop blessings, he is at best comparable to an ordinary adult wizard, and there is a clear gap between him and several professors.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you don't give in and let them go, I have full confidence in you!" Lockhart patted Ivan on the shoulder and said confidently.

He has personally experienced Ivan's strength. He has seen many famous wizards who cannot use such powerful magic!

Ivan's expression was very strange, and he opened his mouth to explain why Luo Ha especially had such high hopes for him.

But thinking that he still needed this strength to intimidate Lockhart, Ivan had no choice but to shut up.

Ivan came out of Lockhart's office with a headache, reflecting on whether he had been pretending too much in front of Lockhart recently.

So much so that Lockhart believed that he was a powerful wizard who could "keep a hand" to the three deans Flitwick, Snape, and Sprout!

"I'm not Dumbledore." Ivan sighed and went to the Room of Requirement as usual.

When he reached the door, Ivan's expression suddenly changed.

There is a dirty stain on the wall in front of the Room of Requirement. It doesn't look very obvious, but Ivan, who has been here many times, can clearly notice this difference.

Has anyone been here?

Ivan's face became very ugly. He walked back and forth in front of the door three times, opened the door and entered the potion storage room, and then rummaged inside.

Because the black mist space displayed by the Horcrux made Ivan wary, he temporarily moved the Horcrux to the potion storage room in the Room of Requirement.

Ivan was very worried that the person who might have entered the Room of Requirement was targeting the diary!

However, it didn't take long for Ivan to find the black-covered diary from where it had been placed.

After confirming that the Horcrux was safe and sound, Ivan breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, guess who might have been here? Is the Horcrux not lost because the other party didn't find it, or is it because the other party didn't come for this at all?

Ivan didn't believe there was such a coincidence. He looked at the Horcrux in front of him, hesitated for a while, and then quickly became firm again.

Can't wait any longer!

Originally, Ivan was still hesitating whether he should agree to Tom's proposal and help him restore his vitality. After all, this might have unknown consequences.

Now Ivan has made up his mind to learn the snake language as soon as possible, obtain the method to fuse multiple bloodlines, and then destroy the Horcrux immediately!

To avoid another accident!

Thinking of this, Ivan placed the Horcrux diary on the ground, took out a jar from his pocket, inside was a spider half the size of his hand, and flipped it upside down on the cover of the diary.

A faint black mist suddenly floated out from the cover of the diary. The spider in the jar seemed to have sensed something was wrong, and started running around in the jar crazily.
