Chapter 582 Borrowing the Philosopher's Stone

Twenty minutes later, they returned to the empty common room.

The room was quiet and dimly lit, the only source of light being the flames in the fireplace.

The four of them sat down on the soft armchairs, and each of them felt a sense of exhaustion and powerlessness.

On a nearby table, the badges in support of Cedric Diggory that the Creevey brothers were trying to improve were shining in the light of the fire, and it seemed a long time ago that they accompanied the two of them to improve the badges matter.

The picture they saw tonight was really shocking. They still have the picture of the roaring fire dragon in their heads.

"Karkaroff also knows about fire dragons, we should tell Cedric about it, that's only fair!" After a long while, Harry said softly, "He certainly doesn't know about it, we can't leave him alone... ...."

"You're right, Harry!" said Hermione, "but now it's time to figure out how to get Ron through the first project and live until Tuesday night."

"I can't do it!" said Ron in a hollow voice. "I sure can't. I can't beat those monsters."

Ivan, Harry, and Hermione looked at each other. Ron's current state is not very good.

Originally thought that after seeing Huolong tonight, he would be mentally prepared and perform better in the game.

But looking at Ron's appearance, the terrifying fire dragon seemed to beat him to the ground!

Ivan helped him back all the way, and he could clearly feel Ron's legs were weakening, and he was staggering all the way.

Charlie was right, it was too difficult for Ron to face the fire dragon all at once!

"Be brave, Ron!" Hermione said, turning her head to look at the pale Ron, "Sirius said that as long as you rely on the eye sickness spell, you can make those dragons blind, and then you can go and get to what they guard."

"Easy to say, that's a fire dragon, not a grown lizard!" said Ron loudly, clenching his fists. "You all saw it just now. They can breathe fire twenty feet away. That Hungarian Horntail It can even be sprayed to forty feet, which is longer than the distance of the magic spell. How can I use the eye disease spell close to them. What's more, even if I use it, it may not be effective. My strength is too weak, and the fire dragon will definitely resist of my spell."

After a long silence, Harry and Hermione asked themselves, but they couldn't easily get close to the terrifying fire dragon that kept spitting fire.

Just looking at it from a distance is enough to make people tremble with fear.

As Ivan expected, what Ron needs now is courage, followed by the power to defeat the fire dragon.

"I definitely can't, I don't want to die yet!" Ron said weakly, "I should just give up the game, or run away from Hogwarts, wherever."

"Don't be silly, Ron!" said Harry hastily.

"This is impossible!" Hermione also said, "Professor Moody said that from the moment your name was spit out by the Goblet of Fire, you have already had a contractual relationship with the Triwizard Tournament, and you must participate in it." Contest."

"Those people are trying to kill me, I can't just die like this!" Ron shouted, the expression on his face looked a little scary.

Immediately, he sank back into the armchair again, without any strength at all.

After another moment of silence, Ron said softly, "There is only one way, there is only one way, unless..."

"Unless what?!"

Ivan noticed that Ron was staring at him blankly at this time, with light shining in his eyes.

"Unless Aiwen lends me the Philosopher's Stone, with the help of the Philosopher's Stone, I can defeat the fire dragon!" Ron said quickly.

Ivan was stunned for a moment, and seeing Ron's serious expression, he was sure that he was not joking.

He didn't expect that Ron would actually make such a request to borrow the Philosopher's Stone from himself? !

In the end, to borrow or not to borrow? !

"It's useless, Ron!" Ivan thought for a moment, and said directly, "I know what you're thinking, but even if I lend you the Philosopher's Stone, you won't be able to use it. Direct absorption and utilization. The Sorcerer's Stone was created by ancient warlocks using alchemy to provide magic power for powerful magic, and it cannot directly enhance the strength of wizards."

He briefly explained the principle of the Philosopher's Stone, hoping that Ron could understand.

But seeing the look in Ron's eyes, Ai Wen knew that what he said just now was in vain.

"Ivan told me about this before. He almost died when he used the Philosopher's Stone in the World Cup last time." Hermione said hurriedly, "Don't think about it anymore, Ron, the Philosopher's Stone can't help at all." you!"

"Really?!" Ron said, the smile on his face was a little stiff, and he looked at Ivan and Hermione suspiciously, "But last semester, Professor Lupine and Sirius clearly said that the magic stone in the Philosopher's Stone Magic power has greatly improved the strength of wizards. With its help, wizards can do many unimaginable things. You also said this, Aiwen, so we went to the centaur tribe to find the magic stone, yes no?!"

"I thought so at the time, but it's obviously not the case." Ivan explained patiently, "I can't use the magic power in the Philosopher's Stone at all, and his improvement of my strength is not as great as I imagined."

"Then how do you explain that your magic power has improved by leaps and bounds in the past two years?" Ron asked.

He didn't care about Harry who was pulling him aside, and expressed all the doubts in his heart.

The atmosphere was very awkward. Looking at the expression on Ron's face, Ivan was a little irritable. His suspicion and distrust of himself were already very obvious.

"I told you about this. My magic power is enhanced because of the magic potion given by Slytherin thousands of years ago. It helped me quickly increase my magic power!" Ivan hesitated, and continued, "This kind of The formula of the potion has been lost for a long time, and it is impossible to reconfigure it."

He didn't reveal that his magical powers had been improved so quickly with the help of the Slytherin locket.

The locket is a very powerful magic item that has saved Ivan many times, but it also cannot help Ron.

And Dumbledore once told Ivan not to tell this to other people, not even those around him.

A magic item that can help wizards quickly increase their magic power, which is already comparable to the power of the Deathly Hallows.

If it gets out, I'm afraid Aiwen will not be able to live a peaceful life in the future!

Then again, Ivan is not obliged to explain anything to Ron, let alone lend him the Philosopher's Stone.

He was helping Ron out of the sake of being barely friends, Harry, Hermione, and the rest of the Weasleys, since Ron last yelled at Hermione in the common room. After yelling, Ivan has always had a bad impression of him.

It's not that Ron has no advantages, but sometimes it is really annoying, like now...

Ron didn't seem to be able to distinguish whether he was begging for help, or he was jealous and questioning.

If it weren't for knowing that Hermione would definitely not give up on Ron, Ivan would not bother to care about his life and death when facing the fire dragon. (To be continued.)
