LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 43
"What are you doing here!" Snape roared.
"I want the book back." Harry replied timidly.
"Impossible! You can't have the book back! Ten points deducted from Gryffindor for breaking into my office without knocking! And disrespecting the professor!" Snape said coldly.
"I didn't disrespect the professor, professor." Harry retorted.
"Twenty points deducted from Gryffindor! And you have!" Snape said viciously, pushing Harry out of his office and then slamming the door back.
"Professor, are you okay?" Thorne stood there and watched coldly until Snape came back and asked.
"Fortunately... I hope he didn't hear it." Snape replied.
"Hmm... Let me try with magic." Thorne shrugged, and the wand pointed at Snape's wound, emitting bursts of blood-red light. Slowly, the bloody wound healed slowly, and it didn't take long for it to heal as before.
"Well done... Slytherin plus ten points." Snape exhaled and said.
"Hmm... I'll leave if there's nothing else." Thorne was about to leave.
"Wait." Snape said.
"Hmm?"
"During this time, Quirrell should teach you how to go to the Forbidden Forest. Dumbledore will watch you, but you also have to learn to buy time for yourself. There are some powerful and lethal magic in it. Go back and take a closer look... Also, don't show off everywhere." Snape took out a notebook from the table and handed it to Thorne.
"Thank you... Thank you so much." Thorne thanked.
"Hmm... Leave now." Snape waved his hand and said.
"OK." Thorne walked out of Snape's office, went straight back to his dormitory, and opened the notebook.
There are not many magics recorded in the notebook, but there are some familiar ones, such as...
God's Sharpness Without Shadow.
Old Familiar Curse.
There are also some that I haven't seen before, such as Skull Fire, Ground Spikes, Wizard's Hand, etc.
The names of the first two spells give a rough idea of what they are. They are a skull-shaped fireball, an application of Transfiguration, and a spike on the ground. However, the last wizard's hand really interested Thorne.
Finally, after Goyle's friendly experiment, he finally figured out the wizard's hand. In short, it is an advanced version of flying around, which can control the movement of objects. If Thorne wants, he can even use this wizard's hand to throw the enemy to death.
................
On the other side...
Gryffindor Tower.
Hermione sat blankly on the sofa in the lounge. She was a little dazed, or maybe she couldn't believe it, and the reason for all this was Harry's words just now.
"Do you know what I saw? I saw a wound on Snape's calf, bitten by an animal, with blood dripping from it!"
"Thorne Black was there too. At that time, Black asked Snape what happened to his leg. Snape said it was that beast. I know they were talking about Fluffy the three-headed dog."
"Then Snape told Black that you know, it seems that Black also knew about Snape's plan to steal the Philosopher's Stone, and he is very likely an accomplice!"
"Finally, Black said that he would use flesh magic to heal Snape's wound in advance... We all know that flesh magic is black magic, and it is an extremely cruel black magic."
.............
Hermione didn't believe that flesh magic was black magic, after all, she had died because of this incident before, but she was basically sure that Snape planned to steal the Philosopher's Stone. As a result, Harry said that Thorne and Snape were in the same group. And he also gave solid evidence...
Hermione's hands and feet were cold, and there was cold sweat on her forehead. She just felt that her memory was a little confused, or she didn't want to believe that the pitiful, weak and helpless Thorne when she first met him would be a bad guy who studied black magic and cooperated with black wizards to steal the Philosopher's Stone...
"Wait... What if Thorne was coerced? What if he was deceived? He only knew that there was a three-headed dog named Fluffy, but didn't know the specific Philosopher's Stone..."
"And he, a little wizard, cooperated with a powerful black wizard like Snape, which couldn't be called cooperation! That was naked deception! In the end, Thorne would not only get nothing, but he might be killed by Snape because of keeping it secret!"
Thinking of this, Hermione felt bad. If another person came to see her, she would definitely be scared. Her face was pale, her pupils were trembling, and her forehead was sweating, as if she was dying.Like.
Crackling!
A clear sound of sparks in the fireplace woke Hermione up.
"No! I want to save him!" She stood up and walked out of the Gryffindor common room, heading towards the library where Thorne usually appeared most often.
Thorne on the other side.
"Uh... I don't know much about this Hagrid, but he dared to raise a dragon in Hogwarts... He must have been a Gryffindor back then." Thorne complained with a wry smile.
"Well, that's right, he was really a Gryffindor back then." Dumbledore replied.
"Then I know he is a Gryffindor, and I also know that he secretly raised a dragon... So, do you have anything else to do?" Thorne asked.
"Harry and the others now know about this dragon." Dumbledore said.
"So what?" Thorne asked.
"So, I will calculate the time so that the time they are punished coincides with the time you and Tom go to the Forbidden Forest to hunt unicorns." Dumbledore explained.
"............I don't quite understand. Shouldn't we let the two groups of people separate?" Thorne said in confusion.
"I naturally have my deeper thoughts. I need you to guide Tom and let them meet, Harry and Tom meet." Dumbledore said.
"................" Thorne went through a long silence. He finally stood up and touched Dumbledore's forehead with the back of his hand.
"You don't have a fever either? What nonsense are you talking about?" Thorne said in surprise.
"Be serious." Dumbledore said.
"You were the first to be unserious. What do you think of your plan? I took a quick look and felt that this plan was like a so-called experience." Thorne said.
"Yes, this is indeed an experience." Dumbledore said.
"But your experience... Logically speaking, shouldn't you find a little villain for the protagonist to experience? Why do you directly give the protagonist the final boss? What kind of new gameplay is this?"
