The castle in the campus hospital is different from the main castle of Hogwarts, including but not limited to its structural composition.
Among them, the campus hospital is better said to be a college than a research institute that trains top professional wizards.
Here, only the most profound magical research is conducted, and some masters of the wizarding world come to the relevant colleges to communicate.
Like a university, but not quite, it doesn't admit students to the entire wizarding world.
Generally, a young wizard is required to show his talent while in school, and then the professor will train him until graduation. He will stay here to continue studying and furthering for higher-level research or study.
Yes, it's like being recommended to college before graduating from high school.
But there is no such thing as a university in the wizarding world... Like a master accepting disciples? It's not like he's a closed disciple...
Xifa was guessing in her mind as she walked down the quiet aisle.
There are no gaps in the black stone corridor leading to the outside world.
Therefore, there were lampstands every few steps here, and the figures of himself and Dumbledore were illuminated by the firelight, casting shadows on the opposite wall.
Dim lights shone on the blue-black brick walls, which were bare. In contrast to the main castle, there was not a single portrait hanging on either side.
It is estimated that no portrait is willing to stay here, staring at the stone statues and armor standing motionless on both sides all year round, as if facing a wall and thinking about it.
You must know that the portraits in the magical world have a certain mindset. They are inherently existences with almost unlimited lifespans. They are definitely not willing to endure loneliness.
The campus hospital occupies a small area, and Xifa guessed that it is just a castle with only one floor.
Because when you reach the end of the corridor and turn a corner, you are faced with a door covered with magic patterns.
Apart from this, Xifa did not see any forks or stairs, and behind him was the exit to the outside world.
When I came to the gate, the magic pattern on it was shining, and it looked like it was not easy to bully.
Under Xifa's curious gaze, Dumbledore took out his wand and tapped several magic pattern nodes in the center of the door.
With each click, the circular magic array composed of magic patterns on the door undergoes complex transformations and rearrangements.
After each change, there was a series of gear collision sounds in the door.
Xifa's eyes were full of brilliance. This was a strange aesthetic that combined complex machinery and magic.
Before Xifa could fully enjoy it.
The door opened slowly with a soft sound.
"The isolation room in the campus hospital is not just for healing and serving, but also for researching some things. For this reason, outsiders are prohibited from entering and the protection methods are extremely complicated."
Seeing that Xifa was hesitant to speak, Dumbledore said that he didn't need to think too much to know why Xifa wanted to ask. It was just that entering the emergency room was so complicated and took so long. Because Xifa was not the first little wizard he brought here.
However, he guessed wrong. Dumbledore would never have thought that Xifa was interested in these complicated magic patterns and machinery. The scene in front of him gave Xifa the idea of making a black-tech computer.
After explaining casually, Dumbledore walked forward briskly, and Xifer quickly followed behind him.
When we reached the end, behind Dumbledore, Xifa felt that this was a large, altar-like domed room.
As Dumbledore continued to move forward to get out of the way of Xifa's sight, Xifa found that Elise and Luna, whom they had not seen for a long time, were lying under the Phoenix Fawkes. Under them, there was a rectangular slate bed covered with complex patterns.
"Bohan, I brought Xifa."
Following Dumbledore's words, Xifa found Dr. Bohan and Dr. Pomfrey standing aside with pens and paper to record something.
"Albus, your guess is too crazy. There are actually beings with a higher level of Phoenix blood than you in this world. However, I have to admit it. After all, you were right all along."
There was a rare fluctuation in Bohan's tone, and he was quite excited at this time.
Dumbledore's Phoenix bloodline? Is the level still high?
Xifa had some guesses, but it was still too messy. Forget about anything else, let’s ask them about their situation first.
"Um, can you tell me what's going on now?"
Xifa was confused, so he interrupted and asked.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a good thing for Fox to hover over Luna and emit such violent magic fluctuations.
As for Elise, Fox fanned her with his wings from time to time.
Two words popped out of my mind involuntarily - suppression.
The person who answered Xifa's question was naturally Mr. Bohan. In this room, he had the most thorough research on the situation of the two of them.
Dumbledore only came here to provide some assistance and comparison, and occasionally expressed some personal opinions.
"Well, to put it simply. Miss Hill has cast a very ancient magic. This magic can temporarily connect her life to you. Of course, this is also your luck."
"I have been paying attention to the Muggle medical community. A few years ago, they just discovered that blood has blood types, which overturned the rules for the use of this magic."
"In order to unlock this magic and repair your injury, I specifically sought out Albus to help. He also told me that we need complete trust in each other to cast this spell."
"I admit that magic can bear consciousness, but this magic actually replaces blood circulation. Xifa, you come from the Muggle world. Can you understand what I mean?"
Seeing that Xifa was not confused at all, but showed an expression of fear.
Bohan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"you understand?"
"Yeah, I understand. If Luna hadn't had the same blood type as me, I'm afraid we would have..."
"Tsk, I have to say that you young people are really impulsive in doing things, but you seem to have no choice this time."
Bohan said with dissatisfaction, but his eyes were still very excited, those were the eyes of the pursuit of discovering new things.
"Okay, Bohan, although you are right, there are many things about magic that I can't explain."
"Oh, by the way, this is the blood type test report I went to the Muggle hospital for."
In the eyes of Xifa, Dumbledore took out a printed form from the hospital.
"I'm not an antique that doesn't keep up with the times. Of course I know some Muggle stuff."
Dumbledore handed the form to Bohan and said to Xifer with a smile.
"Oh! ST! The blood types are actually inconsistent! Albus! Are you kidding me? No! No! Albus! This is a major discovery! Stronger magical animal blood can help wizards evolve!"
Seeing that Bohan was too excited, Dumbledore shook his head and spoke to attack the excited Bohan.
"Maybe so, more likely, this is just a special case. Moreover, in today's wizarding world, where else can you find two wizards with the blood of magical animals?"
"It seems that the blood levels of ordinary fairies and Veela are not enough."
Seeing Bohan open his mouth to refute, Dumbledore pointed to the phoenix in the center of the field, as if to explain something.
The former opened and closed his mouth a few times and completely lost his voice.
"Well, what a pity! By the way, Xifa, I would like to borrow some of your blood for research, is that okay?"
Bohan stared at Xifa with eyes full of hope. With two life-saving favors, Xifa was a little unable to resist and turned his eyes to Dumbledore for help.
Bohan had a life-saving debt to Xifa, so it was naturally difficult for Xifa to refuse, but Dumbledore was different, and he could also help Xifa make the decision.
Although they did not formally become apprentices, both of them acquiesced in this relationship.
"Of course not, unless you agree to a condition!"
When he first heard this, Bohan's eyes dimmed, and then he showed an expression of ecstasy.
"No problem, needless to say, I agree to the conditions, it's nothing more than an unbreakable oath."
"You're very wise, Bohan." Dumbledore said with a smile, and looked at Xifer with an expression on his face.
"Xifa, I need you to step forward to replace Fox. Fox can barely maintain the balance in Luna's body. I guess you are needed to help Luna fully evolve."
"Professor, do you know something?"
"Of course, we all know that in order to treat you two, we have examined you two countless times. Luna's patron saint is a kind of fire dragon, and the fire dragon will not make it difficult for Fox to fight. I specifically seek Help off the field.”
"Yes, he is a wise elder and an excellent senior of yours. You will meet in the future."
"Now, in order to save you, Luna was contaminated by your bloodline. In other words, if she doesn't completely evolve, she won't be able to wake up."
"So?" "So, you need to continue to use that magic to exchange with Luna's blood."
Xifa had a look of surprise and confusion on his face. What do you mean he shouldn't be able to wake up? Are you trying to deceive me? Your medical skills are not good, why don't you give me a vaccination? Can't Luna's contaminated blood be kidnapped?
However, he saw Dumbledore with a wry smile on his face, Bohan with an annoyed look on his face, and Pomfrey standing with an awkward expression on his face. Although she couldn't help, she just wanted to watch.
Helpless, Xifa sighed and took two steps forward.
Then, Xifa turned around and came back with an embarrassed look.
"What's the problem? Xifa?"
"Professor Dumbledore, I don't know the life-sharing spell. Can you teach me?"
Xifa demanded confidently!
"This...this...and then this...understand?"
After listening to it a few times, Xifa understood.
This magic is nothing more than a series of applications such as transformation and contract.
The most difficult thing is that the magic powers are compatible with each other.
Of course, this time there was no need to cut open the heart and stuff Luna's hand into his chest like before.
"Then what happened to Elise?"
Dumbledore showed an embarrassed expression again, and said, "Let's wait until you wake up Luna."
It feels like you are waiting for the opportunity to laugh at me...but I have no proof...
Somewhat helpless, Xifa came to Luna and cut his right wrist open.
After hesitating, he made a cut of the same size on Luna's left wrist.
He reached out and locked his hand with Luna's.
Then the magic was activated, and the contact point glowed faintly.
When Phoenix Fox saw Xifa taking over, it put away its momentum.
It turned around and flew back to Dumbledore's shoulder, using its fluffy little head to rub Dumbledore's bearded face affectionately.
"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work. I'll give you some dried fish later."
Dumbledore said with a smile.
Then, the three of them turned their attention to the center of the field.
