After the mirror left, Qin Weijie looked at Tom with a smile.
"I can leave at any time now, what about you? Why don't you wait here for two days and wait for me to go back and rescue you and Ergou."
Tom shook his head and said with a chuckle: "No need, I already learned 'Mirror Flowers, Moon in the Water' a week ago, which can open the channel of 'Mirror Space'. If I hadn't been worried that the mirror image had evil intentions towards you, I might have gone back a long time ago." ”
"Wait, what were you just saying?" Qin Weijie plucked his ears in disbelief and leaned closer to Tom to confirm again.
"I've learned mirror magic!"
"I'll go! Who taught you this? How did you learn it!?"
Tom tilted his head: "Didn't I read it a month ago? Then I would remember it. I took the time to practice this month, and I was able to open a stable channel a week ago."
Qin Weijie looked at Tom as if he were a monster, with an expression on his face that said, "You are telling me fantasy here."
Tom shrugged helplessly: "Didn't you always say that I am... a 'student'? I have super learning ability and extraordinary talent. According to you, this is not a routine operation."
"Go away! You are the master of routine! I remember a month ago I was turning the pages of the book. You just stood behind me and I turned the pages. Can you remember it?"
Tom was noncommittal and still had a routine expression.
Qin Weijie's face turned green. Comparing people with others was irritating. Qin Weijie always thought that he was already a very talented child, but compared with Tom, he was still a human being.
Although Qin Weijie has always ridiculed himself for being a bad student, among most Hogwarts students, Qin Weijie is already a top student. But when compared in front of Tom, there is still a fatal gap between a top student and a god of study. of.
Qin Weijie finally saw what a true god of learning is today.
Just as the two were about to leave the 'mirror space', the door to Dean Ravenclaw's office was pushed open from the outside.
Laveulus walked into the office, looked at the two people's eager actions and asked in confusion: "What are you going to do? Vijay, why is your mirror image gone? Today is the last day, didn't you kill him?"
"I merged with him."
Laveulus' face moved slightly and she frowned: "Fusion? Nothing went wrong?"
Qin Weijie was a little puzzled by Laveulus's inquiry and tilted his head to look at Laveulus.
"Did you hear any gibbering or someone's voice during the fusion?"
Qin Weijie shook his head: "Not really."
At this time, Tom opened his mouth and said to Laveulus: "I seemed to have heard your gibbering when I devoured the Mirror Image's 'Mirror Image Essence' more than half a month ago. The sound lasted for several days..."
"The Lord of Alienated Mirrors..." Lavulus murmured to himself, and then looked at Tom solemnly: "Don't answer that voice again when you hear it, and don't try to communicate with him. That's in the 'mirror space' 'Taboo', Tucson was alienated at that time because of that guy."
'Taboo'! ?
Qin Weijie was shocked, and Tom's face looked a little ugly at this time, and then he nodded quickly, determined in his heart that he would never communicate with that voice in the future.
At this time, Laveulus looked at Tom with some surprise: "I'm very curious as to why you haven't been bewitched by the 'Lord of Alienated Mirror Images'. The bewitchment of 'taboo' is pervasive. People with weak mental strength can easily be bewitched. You are so little How strong can your mental strength be at your age? I don’t know if it’s luck or...” You weren’t bewitched.
While Laveulus was talking, Qin Weijie interrupted: "Haha, I think I know why Tom was not bewitched."
"Why?" Tom and Laveulus both looked at Qin Weijie.
"After Tom swallowed the 'Mirror Essence' of the mirror image, he mastered a profound magic similar to 'Legilimency', and his mental power was improved. He himself predicted that he would be difficult to be influenced by mental magic and would be basically immune to 'Legilimency'. 'Mind-reading' kind of magic."
"So that's it. It seems that Tom has had quite an adventure. From now on, Tom's risk of being affected by the 'taboo' will be reduced a lot." Lavulus said with a slight comfort in her heart: "But we can't take it lightly," The taboo' still affects you, it's just that the risk is reduced."
As he spoke, Lavulus looked at Qin Weijie, as if thinking about why Qin Weijie didn't hear the murmurs from the 'taboo' after merging with the mirror image.
Qin Weijie said on the surface that he didn't know, but in fact he knew.
The reason why he didn't hear the murmurs was largely because he had 'Xuan Qi' to protect his body. This was what the eldest sister in Baiwu's dream told him. 'Xuan Qi' naturally restrains the so-called 'powerful gods'.
"By the way, Ergou also ate the 'Mirror Image Essence'. Will he be okay?"
Qin Weijie said, looking at Ergou, and then at Laveulus.
"Woof woof!!"
Laurus: "What did it say?"
Qin Weijie looked at Ergou in surprise, and then explained to Lawuulus: "Ergou said that he had heard gibbering before, but now he can rule out the possibility of being bewitched by the 'taboo'. He seems to be very confident that he will not It's like being bewitched by 'taboo'."
In fact, there was another sentence that Qin Weijie did not say. Ergou also told Qin Weijie an intriguing thing. Ergou said that he was protected by a mysterious power, which came from the gods of China.
Qin Weijie wanted to investigate this in detail, but Ergou didn't intend to say more. Qin Weijie had no choice but to give up. He still planned to keep an eye on Ergou and find ways to remedy it in case there was a risk of "losing control".
"Let's put a dozen or so talismans on him when we go back. Since 'Xuan Qi' restrains 'Ability God', these talismans must be effective." Qin Weijie thought in his mind.
The two of them then explained their upcoming departure. Laveulus didn't say anything more, but only warned the two of them that it would be best not to come to the 'Mirror Space' in the future.
Qin Weijie wanted to continue asking why Laveulus and Lester were hiding in the 'mirror space', but Laveulus was obviously unwilling to say more and turned around and left without giving Qin Weijie any chance.

Hogwarts has already experienced two heavy snowfalls in early December. Now Hogwarts is covered in snow, and the rare Christmas holiday will be ushered in in more than half a month.
Mr. Ogg, the school's keykeeper, has been very busy recently, busy preparing necessary items for Christmas.
In previous years, other teachers came to help, but this year because two first-year students disappeared, the school was panicked. All the teachers have been busy studying some kind of advanced magic recently, so this year's Christmas preparations all fell to Mr. Ogg. On the body.
On this day, Mr. Ogg came to the dungeon storage room as usual to move out the Christmas supplies that had been stored there for previous years. However, when he was halfway through the move, Professor Ogg heard an unharmonious sound coming from inside the storage room.
