The Easter holidays are over and final exams are here.
One week after the exam, the exam results are announced on the bulletin boards of each major college. Schelling got excellent marks in the Charms, Transfiguration, Potions, and History of Magic exams, and also performed well in other subjects; Draco, Daphne, and Meredith also did well.
The little wizards of Gryffindor are much worse. Except for Hermione, a real academic master, the performance of Harry and Ron can only be described as mediocre. As for Neville, Seamus and the like, it is even worse. , the results can only be described as terrible.
To sum up, Xie Lin got the first place in the whole grade, Hermione got the second place, Meredith got the third place, the fourth place was a Ravenclaw girl named Murray, Daphne got the fifth place, and Draco got the third place. Six, this made all the young wizards in Slytherin excited for a while, while Gryffindor, who had always been at odds with Slytherin, became the target of ridicule from other houses and fell into a mist.
Xie Lin, Hermione, and Meredith are all all-around academics who excel in written examinations and practical classes; Daphne is slightly more inclined to practical classes. Her grades in Charms and Transfiguration are not bad, but in History of Magic, Astronomy, and Herbal medicine class brought her grades down.
Draco was particularly talented in Potions. He got full marks in Potions, and his grades in Charms and Transfiguration were also good, so he got sixth place. This has made him happily show off to Nott, Blaise, Goyle, Crabbe and the others.
The Harry trio did not feel depressed about the test results for too long. Before the test results were released, the Harry trio suddenly discovered that Professor Snape was suspicious and concluded that Professor Snape planned to steal magic. Stone's conclusion.
One night, the three sneaked into the restricted area of the fourth-floor corridor, only to find that there was only a pool of blood and the body of a three-headed dog on the ground - which made them more certain that Professor Snape had broken into the collection of the Sorcerer's Stone.
The three of them broke through the devil's net, flying key, and giant chessboard levels. Ron was knocked unconscious at the chessboard level, leaving Harry and Hermione to continue moving forward. First, they bypassed the body of a giant monster, and then Professor Snape. Logic question level. Hermione quickly deduced the functions of all the potions. Harry asked Hermione to go back and report the news, while he drank the bottle of potion that could pass through the black flames.
In the last room, Harry saw Quirrell, who was looking at the Mirror of Erised.
Just like in the original plot, Quirrell revealed the true face of Voldemort parasitizing the back of his head - it was a ferocious and terrifying face, as white as chalk, with glowing red eyes, and two lines like Snake-like elongated nostrils.
Voldemort used Harry to take out the Sorcerer's Stone from the Mirror of Erised. Just when Harry was about to rush towards the door burning with black flames, Quirrell grabbed Harry's hand. As a result, Quirrell was killed by Harry instead. The power his mother left behind in Harry's body counterattacked.
Harry's excellent adaptability was revealed at this moment. He rushed towards Quirrell without fear and touched Quirrell's skin with his hands. During the struggle between the two, Harry fell into a coma for three days, and Quirrell fell into a coma for three days. It would end in a tragic death.
After Harry woke up, it was time for the final dinner. At the dinner, Dumbledore gave Ron 50 points, Hermione 50 points, Harry 60 points, and finally Neville 10 points, making Gryffindor achieve a reversal in one fell swoop.
The Gryffindor table burst into thunderous cheers, while the Slytherin table was full of disappointment and frustration. Prefect Gemma Farley was trembling with anger, as if she was about to cry at any time, with a deep look on her face. The dissatisfied Draco kept repeating the curse and shouted that his father was the Hogwarts school director and would definitely seek justice for Slytherin in this matter.
Xie Lin looked calm. The Academy Cup was dispensable to him. His vision and ambition definitely didn't stop there!
Originally, Daphne and Meredith also looked very unhappy. They felt that Dumbledore's approach was unfair - Xie Lin killed a troll and saved the lives of his classmates. It was only worth 20 points, but Ron played a game of chess. Hermione can earn 50 points for the college by solving a logic problem! But when they saw Xie Lin's calm expression, combined with the three people's previous adventure experiences, they suddenly showed expressions of understanding.
Seeing the expressions of the two girls, Xie Lin showed a satisfied smile, "I'm glad that you can calm down your emotions so quickly. Remember, the Academy Cup is fictitious. It can neither bring us real honors nor Producing real value for us, it can neither be eaten nor exchanged for money."
At this point, both girls were amused and laughed. Xie Lin pointed to his head and continued with a serious face: "The really important thing is how much knowledge we have learned here and how much our strength has increased. , these are the only things of real value.”
These words convinced the two women, and even Draco, Pansy and others who were standing by heard them with great excitement. What Xie Lin didn't say in his heart was: The biggest benefit of this crisis - the Philosopher's Stone - has fallen into my hands. Academy Cup? Whoever likes it can take it!
The banquet was over, and students from various colleges began to disperse.
Sherlin was about to go back to his dormitory when Professor McGonagall stopped him. There was some confusion on her face, "Professor Dumbledore is waiting for you in his principal's office. Mr. Malfoy, it seems that he wants to ask you some questions about the final exam." .”
"Okay, I understand, Professor McGonagall." Xie Lin nodded.
"By the way, the password in the principal's office is cockroach pile." Although Professor McGonagall didn't like Slytherin very much, Professor McGonagall took this as his performance throughout the semester - excellent study, steady handling, humility and politeness. This outstanding student truly loves him from the bottom of his heart and regards him as his favorite disciple.
Professor McGonagall was both satisfied and looking forward to Xie Lin's performance. At this moment, she looked at Xie Lin and said carefully: "Also, regarding the Academy Cup, I hope you don't think that the school is unfair, and that the school is unfair I am very optimistic about you, Xie Lin, you are the most talented student I have ever seen."
Hearing the usually stoic Professor McGonagall calling him Xelling affectionately instead of "Mr. Malfoy", Xielin felt the concern in Professor McGonagall's tone, felt warm in his heart, and nodded: "I understand, Professor, don't worry. Bar!"
Hogwarts Headmaster's Office.
This is a spacious, beautiful round room with many windows on the wall, and also hanging portraits of the past Hogwarts headmasters, all of them snoring gently in their respective frames.
There were various silver instruments on thin-legged tables in the office. They made all kinds of funny little noises, whirled around on the tables, and puffed out smoke. Dumbledore's pet, Fawkes, a phoenix with red feathers and golden tail feathers, was perched on a tall gilded branch behind the door; the Sorting Hat lay crumpled on a shelf next to his desk. .
Unexpectedly, there was already a guest in the house.
This is an old man who is dressed fashionably. His face is full of wrinkles, his hair is all white, and his beard is longer than Dumbledore's. But he is in good spirits and can be said to have a childlike appearance.
But what is even more noticeable is that this old man is wearing the latest slim-fitting wizard robe from the extraordinary clothing store. The robe exudes obscure magic fluctuations. Even from Schelling's superficial alchemy perspective, this robe It comes with at least 50 kinds of magic, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is priceless.
"Hello, Professor Dumbledore, hello, sir." Xie Lin bowed to the two old men in a polite manner.
He noticed that the fashionably dressed old man next to him was looking at him with interest. The old man smiled and explained to Schelling: "Hello, kid, let me introduce myself. My name is Nico Flamel."
Even given Xie Lin's state of mind, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard the old man's name.
Nico Flamel smiled and said: "Kid, don't be nervous. I came here this time because of the Philosopher's Stone. I had given this stone to Dumbledore to keep for me, but somehow it ended up in Hogwarts." I lost my guilt, so Dumbledore asked me to do a crystal ball divination on this stone. Who knew that you would appear in the scene displayed by the crystal ball, so I came all the way to Hogwarts just to come. I just want to see you, nothing else."
ah! What a secret!
Xie Lin made so many preparations for the Philosopher's Stone, but he actually forgot that there is such a heaven-defying ability as divination in the magical world - of course, it is no wonder Xie Lin was so negligent, because divination has a very high demand for bloodline talents. Therefore, fortune tellers who truly possess "sight" are actually very rare, and unfortunately, Nico Flamel happens to be one of them.
Xie Lin knew that he couldn't hide it from the two old men in front of him, so he simply explained it openly.
Xie Lin smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Flamel's divination skills are indeed very good, and Xie Lin has learned a lot. I don't want to make pretentious words here. The magic stone is indeed in my place. I broke in during the Easter holiday." In the forbidden area of the corridor on the fourth floor, I passed all the levels and finally got a stone on a mirror. At first I didn't know that it was the famous Philosopher's Stone, but out of my personal naughty moment, I copied a fake and placed it I entered the mirror. Later, I consulted a lot of books and information and found out that this stone was the Philosopher's Stone. I have done some research on alchemy, so I was very happy to see this work that is said to represent the pinnacle of alchemy. , I hope to gain knowledge of alchemy from this stone, and I even hope that one day I can make my own Philosopher’s Stone by my own ability!”
After saying this, Xie Lin raised his head, and his eyes inadvertently met Dumbledore's deep eyes behind his half-moon glasses. Xie Lin suddenly felt an indescribable weird feeling in his heart, and his spirit fell into a trance for a moment. In just an instant, Xie Lin's eyes returned to clarity - it was Dumbledore's Legilimency!
Sherrin regained his consciousness and clenched his fists at the same time. The flames of anger burned in his chest. He decisively used Occlumency to drive out Dumbledore's spirit!
His eyes became cold, and his tone no longer held respect, and he said coldly: "Professor Dumbledore, intruding into other people's thoughts without their consent before obtaining their consent, especially when that person is your student, this kind of Is rude behavior really okay?”
"Ahem, you actually learned Occlumency." Dumbledore was a little embarrassed and adjusted his glasses.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Nico Flamel hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Children of the Malfoy family - I'd better call you Schelling. I hope you don't misunderstand your principal, because it involves important matters such as the Sorcerer's Stone. Although his actions In my opinion, there is something wrong, but there are also difficulties that he has to do..."
