Section 204
He looked at the well-behaved fire ash snake and fell into thought again.
"Principal Dumbledore, if I use the special magical talent of 'Parseltongue', will I have a better chance... to find the trace of the 'heir'?"
Dumbledore did not comment, and asked with interest, "What are you going to do?"
Vizet murmured, "I want to do an experiment, and then lure the snake out of the hole."
"Luring the snake out of the hole?" Dumbledore blinked, "No matter from which aspect, it is a very appropriate description. Talk about the specific method! I will help you with advice."
Vizet nodded, flipped through the notebook, and found the previous content.
"Headmaster Dumbledore, when I was sorting out Animagus, I focused on studying the role of Mandrake leaves. You should remember it, right?"
"Of course I remember!" Dumbledore nodded and said, "I can't wait to see your paper in "Transfiguration Today."
Vizet coughed and said, "Maybe I need to wait for a while... I have only completed the outline of the paper and sorted out the materials."
"That's also amazing progress." Dumbledore waved his hand with an encouraging smile on his face, "How much have you done from the beginning of school to Halloween?"
"As far as I know, there are still continuing Animagus, mastering quite good mental magic, plus weather spells, cool..."
Madam Pomfrey walked into the school hospital and interrupted Dumbledore's words, "It's almost time, class is about to start... I think Vizet shouldn't want to miss it?"
Dumbledore stood up, "We talked for a while."
"Madam Pomfrey, thank you for your reminder!" Vizet certainly didn't want to miss the class, and hurriedly thanked him.
He put the stool back to its original place and said to Dumbledore: "Principal Dumbledore, I will go back and sort out my thoughts. I will not bother you again when I am ready."
"Okay." Dumbledore also put the stool back to its original place. "Come to the principal's office to find me directly. The password is 'cockroach pile'."
"Cockroach pile..." Vizette repeated, "I've written it down. I'll go to class first!"
Looking at Vizette's back as he quickly moved away, Dumbledore said with emotion: "It's good to be young! So energetic!"
"You are still very young now. You have to carry a few bags of candy every day." Madam Pomfrey said unhappily, stuffing the cockroach pile into Dumbledore's pocket, "Remember to restrain yourself!"
"Poppy, I'm sorry for your trouble." Dumbledore smiled and nodded, looking at the fire ash snake and said, "I should send this little guy back."
-------------------------------------
During the days when Vizette perfected his ideas, the discussion about the Chamber of Secrets has never stopped.
Especially in the following History of Magic class, Hermione took the initiative to interrupt Professor Binns's lecture to further confirm and improve the relevant details, and the discussion about the Chamber of Secrets became more and more intense.
The discussion and speculation about who is the heir of Salazar Slytherin has also never stopped.
I don't know which student had such a whimsical idea and came to such a conclusion - Filch was right, Harry is the "heir".
There is a saying in the magic world that "dragon slayers will eventually become dragons", and it has even become a bedtime fairy tale.
This fairy tale is like this. The wizard went through a lot of hardships to kill the dragon, but unfortunately was cursed by the dying dragon;
When the wizard returned home, he had more and more green rashes on his body, and sparks began to spray out of his nose, until he finally turned into a dragon to meet the challenge of the next wizard.
This fairy tale is not completely fictional. This curse of turning into a dragon may not exist, but a magical disease called "dragon pox" does have the symptoms described in the fairy tale.
Perhaps the person who wrote this fairy tale at the beginning created such a story by combining the disease of dragon pox.
This fairy tale was extended to Harry because of his identity as the "savior".
Harry was the "wizard" who defeated Voldemort, and before his death, Voldemort left him a curse, making Harry the second Voldemort.
There was no logic in it, but it was magical enough, so it spread quickly, and some students from Muggle families believed it and began to consciously avoid Harry.
...
With the arrival of another weekend, because there were no new attacks, the discussion about the Chamber of Secrets and the heir gradually subsided.
Some students lost interest in the rumors about the Chamber of Secrets, thinking that what happened to Mrs. Norris might just be a prank against Filch...
Vizet finally made a magic prop based on his own ideas and brought it to the principal's office.
Fawkes the Phoenix became older, and one-third of his feathers fell off, revealing the fiery red skin underneath.
Its expression became sad, and it looked like it was sick, with half of its eyelids drooping, and its originally lively eyes lost their spirit.
The berries that Vizette fed it were also processed to make them easier to swallow.
Despite this, Phoenix Fawkes still swallowed very slowly, and could only tremble his neck a little bit to let the sweet pulp slide into his throat.
Seeing Phoenix Fawkes swallow the berries, Dumbledore returned to his seat, "It should be nirvana before the Christmas holiday, and it will be a bit hard during this period."
After taking another look at Phoenix Fawkes, Vizet calmed down, sat opposite Dumbledore, and took out a magic prop that emitted a faint light.
This is an oval-shaped magic prop with runes carved on the surface and an amethyst inlaid in the center, and the faint light comes from it.
"Principal Dumbledore, this is a magic prop I made using the 'Parseltongue'. It is a simple early warning device that can warn the movement of the giant snake."
Dumbledore picked up the magic prop, looked at it carefully and said: "It is a very exquisite magic prop, and the degree of completion is quite high!"
Chapter 160 It's great to be young!
Vizet smiled and said proudly: "Luna helped design the shape, she is very good at this."
"Fred and George also gave me a lot of valuable advice, and I learned a lot from them."
In terms of making magic props, the Weasley twins are very talented, and he can always get inspiration from them.
It is precisely because of this that the understanding of Grindelwald's notes can continue to increase.
For example, the magic props on the table are made using the methods in the notes, supplemented by traditional magic prop making techniques and some ritual magic theories.
Dumbledore's eyes were filled with satisfaction, and he nodded and encouraged: "One person's power is ultimately limited. It's good to be able to brainstorm."
He stroked the glimmering amethyst, and his tone was a little surprised, "Very perfect purity... Such quality is really rare."
Vizette said truthfully: "This is some help from Ms. Pendragon."
The amethyst came from the treasure chests in the Guardian's Chamber. As Dumbledore said, it is a very high-quality material in every aspect.
Such pure crystals can not only be made into magic props, but also used for ritual magic or other purposes. They are very versatile and have good effects.
Dumbledore is an old acquaintance of Grindelwald. There are many secrets between the two, and they have developed many magic props together.
In addition, he is also an alchemist, and together with Nicolas Flamel, he has made many contributions in the field of alchemy...
Combining these key points, Dumbledore can look at this magic item more comprehensively and specifically, and find out what Vizet has overlooked.
Vizet handed the notebook to Dumbledore, "Principal Dumbledore, this is the idea of making this magic item, and the specific production process."
"The key is this amethyst. The whole magic item can sense and respond, all because of the amethyst and the mandrake blade inside."
"Mandra blade?" Dumbledore looked at the notebook seriously, "Just like engraving magic, engrave the Parseltongue into the mandrake blade..."
"This is the characteristic of the mandrake blade you discovered. The blade can transform memory into an 'anchor point'... It's great that you can learn and use it so quickly!"
Hearing this, Vizet smiled shyly, "Yes, this is a little experience I have summed up through many attempts at Parseltongue."
"The magic of 'Parseltongue' Talent is actually very similar to casting magic, so you can use the mandrake blade and engrave the "Parseltongue" into it. "
Dumbledore picked up the amethyst magic prop again and looked at the mandrake blade inside, "The mandrake blade in the shape of a snake... this is the result of using the transformation magic. "
Vizet nodded, "Yes, using the "Parseltongue" to imitate the perception of snakes, this is the effect of transformation magic. "
"When snakes approach, they will naturally react to the "Parseltongue", which is an instinct. "
"And the "Parseltongue" in the mandrake blade can capture this instinct, thereby producing a warning effect, similar to this..."
He closed his eyes, after a simple brewing, he looked at the amethyst magic prop and made a vague "hissing" sound.
The amethyst instantly burst into a dazzling white light, followed by a shriek.
Vizet engraved the magic lighting spell and the whistling spell on the amethyst magic prop, which was the role of those runic carvings.
"Ahem... shut it down!" Vizette cleared his throat and ordered in a normal voice.
"Principal Dumbledore, what do you think? Are there any other areas that need improvement?"
"This is really a difficult thing." Dumbledore stroked his beard, took out a handful of candy from his pocket and placed it on the table.
He raised his wand and tapped the amethyst magic prop gently, and swept it back and forth from above while whispering. From time to time, water mist or heat would emerge, as if detecting something.
Dumbledore peeled a lemon snow treasure, "Even if I look at it from a picky perspective, this magic prop is extremely outstanding."
"Whether it is the core function, adaptability to the environment, or the law of magic operation, it is difficult to find fault."
"Compared to these, I think the appearance... and the way to identify and warn snakes can be further improved."
"Appearance, identification of snakes, and warning methods..." Vizette hummed, thinking carefully about Dumbledore's opinions.
"It seems so... The warning method is indeed a bit rough. After all, the purpose is to 'lure the snake out of its hole', not to 'alarm the snake'."
"Let me contribute to this part." Dumbledore said with a smile, tapping the notebook with his wand to make a copy of it.
He picked up the quill and revised it in his notebook, "A simple rune of the phantom spell, plus a concealment magic..."
"It's just that the cost may have to increase. Alchemy needs to be used here to refine the hair of the invisible beast and use it as a consumable for carving..."
"In addition, some processes are a little complicated for the sake of rigor... Let me simplify it a little for you. For example, in this step, you can try zircon..."
Wizette quickly took his notebook and wrote down Dumbledore's words.
Dumbledore was very effective in the field of alchemy, and even a few simple words were enough to gain him a lot.
He also asked a lot of questions that were left over from before, or things that he didn't understand that well, and they were all answered fully and completely.
