Chapter 312: Researchers Association Seeking the Mysteries of Life and Death

Although half of the members working in the British Ministry of Magic graduated from Hogwarts, some of them came from other countries.

The rest are the nobles.

Yes, the nobles.

The nobles in the wizarding world do not believe in school education. In their eyes, knowledge is precious, especially precious knowledge, which can be passed down from generation to generation.

They are unwilling to open up this knowledge.

At the same time, they also believe that what is learned in Hogwarts is popular knowledge, and sending their children there to teach is a waste of time.

Of course, not all nobles are good.

Some nobles who are only in name only have scandals of being parents before they reach adulthood. These nobles are completely distorted by noble education, and have no principles in their hearts, let alone secular ethics.

However, Lin Xia did not meet these nobles, and it is possible that she met them, but they would not reveal their bad side.

The nobles who came to ask Lin Xia all worked in the Ministry of Magic. Their families have been tutoring and training their children since the last century, and they did not go to school.

This time, they came to ask, just to know if Hogwarts is really so good.

After all, Lin Xia has created so many items, and has not been kidnapped, selected, or signed by various organizations, because of Hogwarts.

Hogwarts alumni are all over the British wizarding world, and no organization is willing to offend them.

Lin Xia patiently answers those who come to ask.

Again, the same sentence.

As long as your children are really capable, Hogwarts will never bury them.

At the same time, those who can be professors at Hogwarts are also very capable.

These people are all for Lin Xia's reputation, and think that Lin Xia can reach the level today with the training of Hogwarts.

Not only them, I believe that this year's enrollment season, "Lin Xia" will become a golden signboard.

-

"McGonagall, have all your students responded?"

Dean Sprout asked in a daze in an office somewhere in Hogwarts.

She is responsible for handling part of the enrollment affairs, and assigns a reception teacher to each student who is willing to come.

In the past, only the four deans were needed to go out, but this year there are so many students willing to come to Hogwarts. Even though it is now the end of the enrollment season in August, there are still many letters sent to Hogwarts every day.

Logically speaking, these students missed the confirmation time and have rejected Hogwarts in terms of the process.

But isn't school not open yet?

The confirmation letters have been sent, and Sprout can't refuse these little wizards, so he can only make urgent arrangements and call all other free professors.

McGonagall nodded slightly.

There were 5 pieces of parchment floating around her, each with information written by an automatic feather pen. A closer look showed that they were the home addresses of every little wizard who needed to be received.

McGonagall said: "The reply rate in the past was only 60%, but this year it has risen to 85%. Almost every little wizard who received the Hogwarts enrollment brochure chose us."

She said seriously: "In the next few days, we will go to the little wizard's family to inform them of what they need to bring. This is a tough battle."

Sprout held his forehead with a headache.

"I am now thankful that I have been to many places before, and Apparition can save me a lot of journeys."

She asked: "Why did so many students of school age choose Hogwarts this year? Is the population of the wizarding world expanding again?"

McGreg shook her head: "I received a letter from a friend at Durmstrang today. She said that the enrollment rate of their school this year is very low, and the principal is getting anxious.

It's not that the population of the wizarding world has increased, but that most of the young wizards have chosen Hogwarts."

She paused and said with certainty: "Because of Lin Xia."

Sprout suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It seems that I have to think about how to give our recruitment hero a reward."

Professor McGreg said: "I think it should not be the professor who rewards her, but Hogwarts who rewards her, not for anything else, just because she has brought a lot of fame to Hogwarts."

Sprout agreed and said: "I will report to Dumbledore."

-

Lin Xia has already felt that her existence will bring a lot of students to Hogwarts.

But she didn't expect that there would be so many students that Dean Sprout wrote to her and said that he would apply for a "recruitment bonus" for her.

This was not a reward given to her by the professor alone, but by Hogwarts. Dean Sprout wrote to her and said that she could make some requests of her own.

Lin Xia did not hesitate to upgrade her authority, especially the authority related to banned books, the higher the better.

She wrote a reply letter and put forward her own request.

If the authority cannot be upgraded, then giving her some rare herbs, precious techniques, or more permissions to read banned books will also be fine.

Soon after, she received two more letters.

One letter was sent by Punn Skoggar, with a unique skull seal on it, which immediately reminded Lin Xia of the special passenger in the magic bus.

When she opened the letter, a wisp of gray smoke came out of it, and a skull appeared in front of her and sang a charming song for her.

[Dear Lin Xia,

Hello, are you doing well in the dragon breeding farm?

Although I am in the outside world, I have been hearing about you recently. It is said that you have developed a cold pill that can slightly prevent wizards from losing control.

Believe me, every wizard will be crazy about the cold pill, and it can definitely be rated as "the greatest invention of the year".

If the Ministry of Magic refuses to give you this award, it is a serious shady deal. I strongly suggest that you protect your rights and interests. I will be your backer.

Not only that, the entire Researchers Association will be your backer.

Finally, I sincerely invite you to come to the Researchers Association. Do you want to explore the meaning of life?

Do you think that the body in which we exist is related to the mind? The breadth and depth of the mind can be boundless, but will the body hinder our connection with the mind?

If you want to explore the mystery of the body, the essence of immortality, and the potential for human transcendence... Welcome to the Researchers Association.

——Pun Skoggar】

Lin Xia was surprised after reading this letter.

The words "Researchers Association" have appeared in front of her repeatedly recently, especially the "Best Invention of the Year" often comes from this association.

Unexpectedly, Punn Skoggar is also in this association.

Rumor has it that there are many old-fashioned people in this association, and it seems that Punn is much older than she thought.

And it seems that this association seems to have deep research in the two fields of "body and soul" and "mysteries of life and death".

Lin Xia is not interested in this association.

But she is very interested in the topics studied by the association.

After thinking for a while, she put down the letter first and opened another letter.

This is a letter from Mr. Ollivander.

Since Lin Xia entered the second grade and developed the natural magic wand.

Ollivander said that she has more talent and experience than him in the field of magic wand research.

So in order not to restrict her development, he will not always instill his experience in making magic wands into Lin Xia.

As time goes by, her communication with Ollivander has gradually decreased.

However, Lin Xia would still ask Ollivander for help on some important matters. To some extent, Ollivander was her guide in magic research.

[Dear Lin Xia,

How are your studies recently? Are you happy at the dragon farm?

I am very proud that you have another great invention. The impact of this invention is far greater than that of the invention of the magic wand. This is the gospel of all wizards. No wizard can guarantee that he will not be disturbed by the evil god's whispering.

Oh, I may have said a little more, but you should know these things. The wizard world is not a safe world. On the contrary, it is full of dangers...

Your research talent is so outstanding that I am worried that you will be used by others. Are you still studying the magic wand recently? The alchemical item type is also a good field. I suggest that you can spend some time on this recently...

May you, may we, be on the right path.

——Your friend, Ollivander]

Lin Xia's eyes flickered slightly. She knew the news revealed by Ollivander a long time ago.

But this is not the point.

He was reminding her implicitly that she could spend some time on other aspects instead of studying cold pills all the time.

He was worried that she would be in danger if she continued to study!

Suddenly, Lin Xia thought of the Researchers Association, and her eyes were full of deep thought.

Would this be a new danger, or a new opportunity and shelter?

She didn't know much about the power structure of the wizarding world. After all, her family was not aristocratic in the UK, and her parents were obsessed with research and didn't care about worldly affairs.

Coincidentally, Draco also sent a letter yesterday. Lin Xia simply replied to everyone and asked about the "Researchers Association".

As for Pun Skoggar's reply, she decided to put it aside for the time being, and wait until she collected other people's opinions before deciding whether to go or refuse.

Three owls flapped their wings and flew out of the fire dragon farm.

These owls are stronger and stronger than ordinary owls, and the brilliance of magic flashes when their wings flap.

These are dragon eagles!

These are owls specially bred in the fire dragon farm!

Perhaps there are many fire dragons in the fire dragon breeding farm, surrounded by dragon energy, the breeders found that the small animals raised next to the fire dragons from childhood, when they grow up, have stronger abilities than ordinary species.

Dragon eagles are also such products.

They fly faster than ordinary owls, have better endurance, and can even perform phantom shift when in danger!

If owl postmen can also be divided into levels, then dragon eagles are comparable to fighter jets among owls, or the flagship version.

-

Only that night, all three of them received Lin Xia's letter.

After reading it, Draco immediately ran to ask his father, "What is the Researchers Association?"

Lucius frowned slightly, and did not ask Draco how he knew about the Researchers Association. The child also has his own social circle.

Even the "Researchers Association" is obviously not something that the child can understand.

"This is a very old association. It is said that it is older than the British Ministry of Magic. The founder is very likely to have transcended death, but no one knows the whereabouts of the founder.

There is a saying that this is an association founded by the god of death, and this association studies the mysteries of life and death."

Lucius paused and said in a deep voice: "When Dumbledore was young, he went in and out of this association many times to seek help, but was rejected by them.

Dumbledore took the next step and wanted to join the association, but was still rejected by the association. The reason for the rejection was that they believed that Dumbledore was not pure in mind and was not walking on this path religiously. "

Draco frowned, "Aren't they afraid of Dumbledore's anger? Dumbledore is the greatest wizard in this century. Who can go against his will?"

Lucius said slowly: "Child, you have to know that there is another word 'one' after the greatest wizard.

In the British Ministry of Magic, he can dominate the world with one hand, but in other countries, there are also outstanding magical talents.

He doesn't have the final say in the wizarding world.

As for the Researchers Association, its location is not set in the UK, but in a special space that does not belong to any country's borders, so the Researchers Association is not affected by Dumbledore's will. "

"Besides," Lucius added, "how do you know that there is no one more powerful than Dumbledore in the Researchers Association? This may be the reason why they dare to reject Dumbledore."

What his father said overturned many of Draco's thoughts.

It turns out that the principal is not the greatest. There are talents comparable to Dumbledore in other countries. Dumbledore's influence is only limited to the UK...

Lucius didn't know what he thought of, and said: "If you have a chance in the future, you must join the Researchers Association, I'm afraid it really contains the secret of the God of Death.

Nico Flamel is an honorary member of this association. It is said that he has always been connected with the Researchers Association, and the Researchers Association is a group of graduate students and crazy people who die. "

Draco asked curiously: "Why do you say you are crazy?"

Lucius said calmly: "When you see the people from the Researchers Association in the future, you will understand what I am saying. They are a group of research madmen who can completely abandon their bodies.

We should be thankful that they did not use this crazy energy to reform the wizarding world. Otherwise, with their energy, they would be far more crazy than Grindelwald and Voldemort. "

Draco noticed a small detail.

My father used to call Voldemort "You-Know-Who", but this was the first time I heard him call Voldemort by his first name.

He wrote all the news his father told him to Lin Xia, using their unique encryption technology.

This technology was developed by Lin Xia's research laboratory, and every research member can crack it.

at the same time.

Sprout also received Lin Xia's letter and set his sights on the Researchers Association.

Lin Xia received an invitation from the Researchers Association and as the lead singer of the band Death, which made Sprout particularly excited.

She has never been able to get a ticket for the Death Band's concert, and this band only holds a concert once a year. Every time it is held, it is grand and brings together many outstanding talents in the wizarding world!

The wizards treated the concert as a social occasion, but she was all about enjoying the music.

Unfortunately, only a small number of tickets for the concert were released, and she was not fast enough.

Sprout immediately found Mag and discussed with her how to reply to the letter.
