Chapter 48

Evans turned his grief and anger into appetite, gulping down fragrant popcorn into his mouth, and snorting back: "What's this? It tastes good." "

Evans was a typical wizard, he had little contact with Muggle stuff, and it was the first time he had eaten popcorn. Also for the first were Neville and Draco.

"Alright, let's eat as we go. Solim beckoned, and the group spun forward.

Lowe came down to the Devil's Net, and then the key to Professor Flitwick's spell.

When Evans saw this, he began to feel that something was wrong. I said, don't you professors have a big heart, and you just use such a simple thing to protect the Philosopher's Stone? Or is it that the Philosopher's Stone is not here at all, it is just a smoke bomb released by the professors to confuse the enemy?

Looking down at the door that had been spelled, Evans rolled his eyes, holding popcorn in one hand, and pulling out his wand and pointing at the keyhole with the other, and with a "click", the door was opened by him.

In Evans' eyes, neither the Devil's Net nor this door is even pediatric. For a young wizard, a door that has been counter-spelled will not work with an unlocking charm. But for a qualified adult wizard, it is not a problem to break the anti-spell or use the blasting charm to forcibly break this wooden door.

But that's the question that bothers Evans right now, what the hell are these professors doing? Thinking of this, Evans glanced at Solim, who was still eating popcorn without a heart.

"Hey, do you know anything about the Philosopher's Stone? Evans was a little embarrassed every time he saw Solim, but he kept it up well and wouldn't be noticed. His Animagus was spotted by the eleven-year-old wizard in front of him, which made Evans eager to give everyone in the know a "forget-it-all nothing" every time he thought about it.

Solim squinted at Evans as he ate his popcorn, "You'll know what's going on right away." Don't talk nonsense, you'll have to rely on your magic later. "

The three of Harry had already made their way through Professor McGonagall's chessboard, and for that reason, the room was quite chaotic, littered with large and small pieces of rubble. However, due to what Solim gave, Ron was not injured. Instead, he walked with Harry and Hermione.

"Oh my God, what's going on here?" Draco looked at the broken pieces on the ground, "Did there be an explosion here?"

"This is Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration. Solim explained to Draco and Neville, who were confused.

Many young wizards don't value Transfiguration, which they think of as simply turning one thing into another, as Professor McGonagall did in his first class: turning a table into a pig. It's like a trick, it's like a herbal medicine class, as long as you don't work in it after graduation, it doesn't have much impact on the wizard's future life and work. Minor wizards place more emphasis on spells, potions, and defenses.

But this perception is extremely wrong, as long as wizards with some vision know that transfiguration is an indispensable skill for wizards. Almost all great wizards have a pretty good transfiguration. Dumbledore was like that, Voldemort was like that, Evans was like that, and Snape was like that.

Transfiguration is arguably the best of European magic. It combines attack, defense, and control, and as long as you master the transfiguration technique, wizards can play a lot of tricks in battle. Transfiguration is a discipline that requires a very solid theoretical foundation, requires constant learning and exploration, and Transfiguration values talent more than spells. It is a genre of magic that needs to be graded gradually. Transfiguration is not a spell, as long as the magic is enough, the control is enough, the kind of magic that can be released if you know the spell, it is an extremely delicate and complex type of magic, and there are not many wizards who have the ability to learn it well.

Evans stood on the battered chessboard, his face a little weird. When he first came in, he saw the mess in the place, and he thought that the jokes in front of him were to make the intruders relax their vigilance, and this was the trap that the professors had carefully arranged. But Evans took a closer look and almost went crazy.

It's true that these pieces have been cast a Transfiguration Charm, but it's also too careless. After being broken, it will not be restored, and there is no temporary contract on this chessboard. This board doesn't require you to win it, as long as you don't stupidly walk past them, they won't move at all. You can walk off the board and slip across, and you can't do anything with these pieces. This is a big loophole, right?

Evans couldn't help it, and hurriedly walked up to Solim and asked, "Tell me, what is the idea of the Hogwarts professor? These traps don't look like they're designed to protect the Philosopher's Stone." Tell me what the hell Dumbledore is thinking!"

Pouting, Solim didn't expect a wizard who could be sent to Hogwarts to be so impatient. But seeing that it's almost at the bottom, it doesn't matter whether to say it or not.

"You should have noticed. Solim and Evans walked forward as they spoke, "The traps along the way, except for the three-headed dog at the beginning, are not too difficult for adult wizards, even the upper students of Hogwarts will not have any difficulty passing through these. However, the simplicity of these mechanisms does not mean that the intruding wizard has the ability to take the Philosopher's Stone away. "

There is no need to set up so many traps to protect the Philosopher's Stone, in fact, only one of the most unexpected traps is needed. The main role played by these previous organs was to delay time and test Harry and the others.

Otherwise, Dumbledore really had to seriously protect the Philosopher's Stone, even if he was troublesome to carry with him, he could throw it in the Headmaster's Office, and the two statues guarding the Headmaster's Office were not vegetarians, so no one would want to go in if he didn't say anything.

After listening to Solim's words, Evans looked awkward. His lips trembled, and he stumbled, "That is...... This is actually an amusement park for that savior?"

"Pretty much. Apparently, our Headmaster didn't take the wizard who infiltrated Hogwarts seriously in the first place. In his eyes, training Harry and seeing his character was clearly more important than protecting the Philosopher's Stone. After Solim finished speaking, he put away his popcorn, turned to a few people, and said, "Don't eat it, you won't have an appetite for the rest of the room." "

Sure enough, when a few of them reached the next room, Draco almost didn't throw up.

"This ...... Be...... What, vomit ......" Draco retched a few times. Neville pinched his nose as well.

Solim first added a bubble head charm to himself, and only after Draco and Neville had smelled the smell of the troll that people would never forget, he threw the bubble head charm on the two of them.

With the Bubble Head Charm, Draco and Neville's faces looked noticeably better.

"You should have given us this earlier. Draco grumbled dissatisfied.

Solim didn't think so, the two boys had never faced a troll before, and it would be a good experience to get up close and personal this time.

Evans on the other side didn't use the bubble head charm at all, in fact, he didn't use anything. For him, the smell of trolls doesn't bother him in any way. He'd seen something much more terrifying than a troll.

Several people didn't speak, and passed through quickly, although there was a bubble head charm, but no one wanted to stay in a stinky place. And they're about to get to the bottom of the boss, so take advantage of it to adjust your mentality now.

"Evans, please give them two a mute charm before they are exposed. Solim said.

He was going to go to the front now to make sure that all three of Hermione had passed Snape's level. The coin he gave Hermione was nothing more than an ordinary coin, without any magic on it—but with potions.

The coin had been soaked in fire retardant if it had been thrown into the fire. The flame will be suppressed or even extinguished. Solim didn't believe that the wall of fire at Snape's level was going to be a fire. As long as it is a normal magic fire, the fire prevention potion will work.

Seeing that there was no one in the room, Solim turned around and said to a few people solemnly, "The next thing is the real one." "
