Chapter 391 Is there anyone else in my domain? !

"Interesting..." Rice whispered softly.

"What's wrong?" Hermione took two deep breaths, recovered her over-consumed physical strength, and turned to look at Rice.

Rice did not speak, but just pointed at the sun in the sky.

Hermione looked up, and at first she did not notice anything unusual - the sun was no different from usual, why did she let me look at the sun?

Then she suddenly found the problem. The position of the sun in the sky had hardly changed, but she and Rice had been in the library for a long time.

If everything was normal, the sun should have tilted to the west.

"Go to the auditorium." Rice said nothing and walked straight to the castle with Hermione.

Not far away, Helga, who was standing in front of the office window, narrowed her eyes.

Three seconds, a full three seconds! Salazar and Granger disappeared right under her nose!

'What kind of field did Granger awaken? It doesn't look like the elemental field, but judging from her performance, it doesn't seem like she has only touched the threshold of the field! Could it be that this little girl Hermione actually awakened a complete domain? ' Helga's expression was solemn.

A series of thoughts and doubts flashed through Helga's mind, and there was a hint of worry. She planned to wait for Salazar to come up and talk to him in detail, but there was no doubt that Rowena had picked a good student!

Rice and Hermione returned to the hall and found that the time was almost the same as when they left here.

Now Hermione can be sure that her domain and the time outside are independent of each other. Several hours have passed in the domain, but the time outside has not changed much.

In this case, wouldn't I have more time to read? This was the first thought that came to Hermione's mind.

After paying special attention to the bulletin board and finding that the date had not changed, Rice determined that Hermione's domain would "freeze" time.

Awesome!

Rice had nothing else in his mind, just this one idea.

Anything related to time is extremely powerful and weird, such as time magic and time domain.

Although Hermione's domain is not a pure time domain, it can also establish a space where the flow of time is independent of the outside world, just like inserting a node on the normal timeline. After the node is expanded, it is a period of time that belongs to Hermione alone.

Pure time domain, Rice thinks it is probably the most terrifying domain, because no one can resist the erosion of time, and the four of them are the same.

It's a pity that Hermione's domain cannot be regarded as a pure time domain, otherwise she would be the well-deserved owner of the first domain of Hogwarts.

But even if her domain is only slightly related to time, it is also a very remarkable domain. In Rice's view, although Hermione's domain is not an elemental one, it is not inferior to the complete version of Daphne and Cedric's domain - let alone the level that they have not even crossed the threshold now.

"Develop it well, and study it when you have time in the future." Rice said to Hermione.

The strength of the domain is not constant, not to mention the secondary awakening after deep development. Different proficiency in the domain will also show different strength.

"Okay." Hermione agreed seriously.

Even if Rice didn't say it, she would open her domain several times a day. Each time she opened a domain, she could get three hours of extra study time. Her domain was comparable to a time converter.

Although time could not be reversed, there was no risk of using a time converter.

"You should have a good rest first. I'll go to Professor White." After instructing Hermione to develop her domain more, Rice turned and walked upstairs.

Hermione felt tired and chose to go back to the lounge for a rest. When she recovered her energy, she would open her domain again.

When Rice arrived at the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office, Helga was already waiting for him.

"What domain did Granger awaken? Did she awaken directly or did she just touch the threshold like Diggory and the others?" Helga asked impatiently after Rice closed the door.

"It was a direct awakening. Unlike Daphne and the others, her domain is non-elemental, so she has a nearly complete domain right from the start." Rice didn't say anything more and directly shared the information he knew with Helga.

"Is that so..." Helga frowned slightly, and a trace of pity flashed in her eyes.

As she observed, it was a non-elemental domain. Miss Granger was really pitiful.

As a wizard who had experienced the mythological era, Helga also understood the difference between elemental domains and non-elemental domains. So when Salazar told her in person that Rowena's apprentice awakened a non-elemental domain, her first reaction was sympathy.

Sympathy for Rowena, and sympathy for Hermione Granger.

Putting aside the identity of Rowena's apprentice, Helga still had a deep impression of Hermione, because she was a very hardworking and active girl in class.

No matter what the angle, Helga hoped that Hermione could inherit her teacher's wind domain. Unfortunately, things did not go as she wished - if she could really make her wish come true, how could Salazar allow his students to have a magma domain?

But in the modern magic world, perhaps non-elemental domains would be more popular? Helga thought about it and felt that the functional domain was not as bad as they thought.

In the world thousands of years ago, survival was the first priority. If a domain cannot significantly enhance combat effectiveness, it is meaningless in the eyes of old-school wizards such as Salazar and Helga.

Even Helga herself began to vigorously study food magic after she became strong enough. Moreover, her food magic also had a strong practical value at the beginning. The food she made had a series of functions such as quickly restoring physical strength for teammates, accelerating wound healing, enhancing immunity, and detoxification.

When that dark and turbulent era ended and peace came to the earth, the things that wizards pursued seemed to have changed. The proportion of magic used for combat is getting smaller and smaller, the proportion of life magic is increasing, and some combat magic is also turning into life magic. This is the general trend.

In other words, there should be enough non-elemental domains in the modern magic world to exert their abilities.

"Hey, what's that look in your eyes? Do you really think that other people's domains are rubbish? Miss Granger's domain is related to time!" What is the relationship between Les and Helga? He can guess what she is thinking by looking at her expression.

Save your sympathy for your students, Helga! Hermione's domain was quite powerful even a thousand years ago.

After all, for wizards, knowledge is power, and Hermione can speed up the speed at which wizards acquire knowledge, and even share the knowledge in their brains.

Some magic families keep magic books as heirlooms, and Hermione can reproduce them in her domain after reading them once. This ability is simply amazing.

Related to time? Helga was stunned for a moment, and the few traces of sympathy that just rose in her heart disappeared instantly.

I'm so stupid, really, I only knew that Hermione Granger's domain was a non-elemental domain, but I didn't expect it to be related to time? Then what should I sympathize with, I should sympathize with myself!

"Time?" Helga asked again with a little uncertainty. At the same time, she remembered the scene she had just seen: Salazar and Granger did disappear for three seconds inexplicably, could it be that...?

"Oh? It turns out that we disappeared for a moment at that time. Well, it doesn't look like a complete stagnation of time, which is normal. By the way, a large library will not appear in the same place, right?"

After learning that they disappeared out of thin air, Les was relieved. It would be funny if a library appeared on the ground as soon as Hermione opened her domain.

"What's the situation with the library?" Helga was aroused by the "library" mentioned by Salazar. She wanted to know in what mental state Salazar asked the question "Did a library appear on the ground when they disappeared?"

"Miss Granger's domain is to build or summon a library, which can accommodate specific candidates to study in the library." Rice briefly introduced Helga to the effect of Hermione's domain.

Helga: ? ? ?

A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes: she had lived for so long, and this was the first time she had seen such a domain.

But thinking about it carefully, the effect of this domain is really powerful, which can allow a person to have an extra period of time every day. This time can be used to rest or to learn knowledge. It is really a powerful auxiliary domain.

Just when Helga wanted to ask for more details, a red flash suddenly flashed in Rice's arms.

"It's Rowena." Facing Helga's confused eyes, Rice gave her a simple explanation.

Les took out the crystal ball from his arms, placed it on Helga's desk, and patted it, and Rowena's voice came out from it.

"Salazar, what's going on with Granger?" Rowena's voice actually revealed a hint of anxiety, and it can be heard that she cares about her students very much.

"Royna, I want to congratulate you, Hermione has just successfully awakened her domain!"

"Oh? Really? What type of domain did she awaken?" Hearing such good news, Rowena was immediately happy, and couldn't help but ask Sarah through the crystal ball about the type of her student's domain.

"Her domain is a non-elemental domain, which is related to time. The specific ability is to summon a library similar to the Hogwarts Library to accommodate people to study in it. The speed of time in the library is different from that in the outside world. One hour in the library is about one second in the outside world."

Rowena was stunned for a moment.

When Salazar mentioned the "non-elemental domain", her heart skipped a beat, but when he mentioned that it was related to time, Rowena couldn't help but feel happy again, and her mood was as bumpy as a roller coaster.

But what the hell is a library? Hanging out in the library every day has this effect?

Rowena felt like complaining, but she didn't know where to start: Isn't this her own fault? She specifically recruited students who like to hang out in the library as her heirs, so isn't it reasonable for her to awaken a domain that can summon the library?

"Hermione's library domain is very powerful, and there is still a lot of room for improvement that can be seen with the naked eye. Rowena, you have found a treasure."

Bang!

Rowena slapped the sand table in front of her hard, causing a small earthquake in the sand table world.

"What library domain? Salazar, why are you so bad at naming?" Rowena said angrily: "Can't it be called the knowledge domain or the mind palace? ! Library domain, isn't this too, too simple?"

Les: ...

To be honest, the name Rowena gave is indeed better than I thought.

"Then I'll ask Hermione later and see which one she would like to choose." Les decided to return the naming rights of the domain to the owner of the domain.

After that, he stopped talking to Rowena.

"Library Domain... I think this name is okay, what do you think Helga?"

Helga curled her lips, she felt that Rowena was just being pretentious. Miss Granger's domain, what else can it be called if not the Library Domain? The two she came up with were just nonsense.

"Ahem," Helga cleared her throat, did not directly respond to Salazar's question, but threw out a new topic: Should we consider the final exams prepared for students this year?

"This year, the children have all been exposed to the domain, and the difficulty of the exams should be increased." A trace of embarrassment flashed across Helga's face. As the children's strength increases, it becomes more and more difficult to arrange suitable exams for them.

It is obviously too simple to find a dark wizard or a troll as the exam topic as before.

Les cast his eyes on an automatic combat doll standing in the corner of the office, which may be a good choice.

Following Salazar's gaze, Helga also understood what he meant. A trace of pain flashed across Helga's eyes: Do we really want to take it to the trial? The problem is that they don't seem to be the opponents of these little guys. We can't take out several puppets at once to fight, right?

"The puppets are a little too weak."

Helga's words triggered Rice's approval, but he soon set his mind on another thing: Godric's armor, which they used as a teaching aid for students before, and maybe it can still be used now.

"But a teaching aid..." Helga frowned: "Will the pressure given not be big enough?"

"Then I'll think of a way." Rice fell into thinking again.

While Rice and Helga were discussing the final exam, Hermione had almost rested.

She got up from the bed and stretched. Seeing that there was no one in the dormitory, she directly pulled the bed curtain and opened the field in the dormitory.

Entering the library again, looking at the familiar building in front of her, she felt a flash of joy in her heart: let her read books happily for three hours.

However, when she walked around the bookshelf and prepared to find a table to sit down, Hermione was stunned - she saw someone in her own library, someone other than her!
