Hogwarts becomes host

Adair chatted to death.

Harry and Elaine ignored him and went back to doing their own thing.

There was a translator and a reader. In the entire secret room, Adair seemed to be the most leisurely person standing there with his feet up in a daze.

But as soon as Elaine opened the live broadcast room, she realized that this guy was actually working with linguists from various countries to try to translate Parseltongue.

Very dreamy.

Elaine silently turned off the live broadcast room so as not to disturb them.

In addition to basic magic theories, the books in the secret room also contain potions, alchemy, astrology, ancient runes and many other ancient magics.

However, how much is the value?

The more Elaine read it carefully, the more she felt something was wrong.

Slytherin was a figure from the ninth or tenth century AD. At that time, it was probably the early Song Dynasty in China. The world was relatively rich in magic, sparsely populated, many places were undeveloped, and magic herbs and magical animals were everywhere.

But after thousands of years, the magic power of the world has declined significantly. Most magical creatures have either become extinct or have degraded to the point where they no longer have magic power. They have lost their materials and only have formulas that are meaningless. Perhaps a potion master like Snape can get some from it. Reference idea, but ordinary wizards will definitely have no chance.

The influence of the environment is not just that. The magic power has declined, and the power of the spell has also begun to weaken. In addition, the International Statute of Secrecy stipulates that Muggles must not be attracted to the attention. Wizards began to improve the spell and streamline the magic power to the extreme──getting rid of the range so as to preserve it. Powerful, it also reduces magic power consumption and is convenient for concealment.

The illuminating spell that once illuminated a room was now a fluorescent flicker that lit up only the tip of a wand.

Large-scale magic has withdrawn from the stage of history, not because it cannot be used, but because it is inconvenient to use.

One reason is that it is conspicuous and difficult to deal with. The lack of external magic assistance is another reason. Wizards have to spend a lot of time accumulating and mobilizing magic power. No matter how powerful the magic is, it is meaningless if it cannot hit someone. The opponent is not stupid, so it is impossible. Just stand around and wait for someone to rub you in, unless you have enough magic power to speed up your spellcasting, like Dumbledore and Voldemort.

To sum up simply, these prescriptions and theories have passed their shelf life and are not suitable for modern magic systems.

Elaine scanned the translated documents, and sure enough, the things Harry translated were all the same. They looked very powerful, but in fact they couldn't be used because the environment had changed too much.

For example, the one in her hand is about the technique of using environmental magic to assist spell casting-gathering the surrounding magic to the side. In addition to speeding up the casting of spells, it can also play a defensive role, directly casting spells that are not strong enough. Offset it.

In first year, Adair used this technique to crush Hermione's Petrifying Curse with his bare hands.

It sounds powerful, but you are a fool to use it. There is very little magic power in the environment now. Unless you bring the magic power of a world like Elaine, all you can gather is air.

Therefore, the inheritance that you have worked so hard to obtain is useless.

Not that bad, at least this technique is very helpful to Elaine.

Besides, there are thousands of books in this room, and it is impossible for them all to be expired. There must be something that can be used, otherwise Voldemort and the Gaunt family would not keep it secret like this.

That was because Harry was unlucky. The first few books he took out to translate were all outdated theories.

This is not right. If Harry were African, he would have been finished thirteen years ago. Rather than pure chance, Elaine believed that Adair did it deliberately.

As a student, she knew these books were useless halfway through reading. How could Adair not notice?

In this case, let Harry continue to read, most likely because he wants to dig a hole to bury the Ministry of Magic and the pure-blood families.

For wizards, the most precious thing is always magic knowledge, and the most difficult thing to obtain is magic knowledge. Hogwarts only teaches the basics. What is truly precious is the secrets that are not passed down within each family, and it is also the biggest bargaining chip for pure-blood families. .

It is by relying on these core secrets that pure-blood families control the Ministry of Magic. If the world's magic power had not decreased and the strength of wizards had not declined, Muggle-born wizards would always be suppressed by pure-blood families.

In the magical world where power is everything, there is no wizard who does not desire knowledge.

The documents that have been translated now can prove that the inheritance of Slytherin does exist, and that the Shafiq family has not broken its promise; then, Adair will probably slowly delay the translation on the grounds that it takes time, and throw out one or two hanging books from time to time. Appetite was not released in large quantities until two years later, before Voldemort was resurrected.

Slytherin's name is too loud, and many wizards will definitely rush to grab it. Even the Death Eaters who know that Voldemort is related to Slytherin will probably reach out with a lucky mentality. After all, the Dark Lord has disappeared for more than ten years. , most people thought he was dead.

And for a man as proud as Voldemort, who would even care about sharing the same name with others, how could he allow his family's knowledge to become a commodity on the street? With his low emotional intelligence, he would probably kill a large number of people after his return. show to the public.

At that time, even if the Ministry of Magic wants to deceive itself, it will be useless. Rabbits will bite when they are anxious. Under the threat of life, all the wizards in the UK have only one option left to join forces with the Shafiq family to kill the Dark Lord.

Just thinking about it makes people look forward to it.

***

The Christmas holiday at Hogwarts is from mid-December to early January. Since the holiday is over, even if Adair wants to lock them in forever, Harry and Elaine only stay in the secret room for five days.

Although it was only five days, Harry felt as if he had been repeating the sounds in his ears every day for a month. If it weren't for the fact that this knowledge was really beneficial to the wizarding world and no one could recognize it except himself, plus Deng Bledo came to visit and encourage him, but he had already given up the job.

Elaine has seriously learned a few combat skills. To be honest, because music magic is ancient magic, and she has an endless supply of magic power, those outdated theories are more suitable for her.

It doesn’t matter if my skills are rough, I have so much magic power that I can’t use it all up. This kind of rich fighting style will probably be Elaine’s style of painting in the next few years.

The two of them walked to the dining hall together. Today was the day for students to return to school. Dumbledore specifically asked Adair to let them attend the dinner. It was said that all the teachers and students of the school would be there, and there was something important to announce──

The threat of the basilisk is gone, so I want to celebrate on a high note and let everyone relax.

Speaking of which, although they lived together day and night, the two of them barely talked in the past five days and were busy with their own affairs, so Elaine still didn’t know that her harem had been blown up by Adair.

They all reached the door of the restaurant, and Harry remembered that he had forgotten to mention this.
