Chapter 242 Trap

Although Hermione was blessed with some speed, her endurance was still that of an ordinary student.

After being dragged around for a while by Robert, he was already exhausted.

He was standing there panting.

"We just saw the hooded man." Robert explained, "I sent him a trap."

"What kind of trap?" Hagrid was confused, and then he gloated a little, "By the way, that scream was really miserable."

"It removes evil and has a miraculous effect on evil spirits." Robert took out a book with "Getting Rid of Unfriendly Former Residents" written on the cover. "This book highly recommends the spells, which are quite interesting. Based on Hagrid's With your intelligence, you will definitely be able to learn it quickly!”

Hagrid glared at his big copper eyes, "This is awesome! Lend me this book to read next time! If I meet that bastard again, I will give him a harder blow! Let him know the hunting ground The guards are awesome!"

Hermione glanced at Robert and did not expose him. Instead, she asked quietly when Hagrid turned around to check on Harry, "What on earth is that?"

"A compound magic circle." Robert shrugged, "It can allow us to find the sneaky guy, but I doubt he will remove the magic. Of course, another function is to give him a powerful purification, you have to drink it The blood of unicorns will be cursed..."

Hermione interrupted him hastily, "Wouldn't that help him lift the curse?"

The black centaur just happened to come over. He heard Robert's words and looked at him in astonishment with a strange expression.

"Hehe..." Robert smiled a little treacherously, "Who told you that the curse of unicorn blood can be lifted by purification?"

Hermione's eyes widened, "Isn't that so?"

"No, no, of course not." Robert smiled, looking very happy, "That will only deepen the curse, and it will make people feel heartbreaking pain."

Hermione said she couldn't imagine the pain.

"However, the curse of unicorn blood is not completely unbreakable." Robert changed the subject and said, "If he gets the Philosopher's Stone, then this curse will no longer exist."

Hermione was a little confused, "The Philosopher's Stone...is it so magical?"

"Of course, that is the Alchemist's Holy Grail, the Philosopher's Stone that can replace all costs and fulfill all wishes. It is the fifth element besides fire, earth, water, and air." Robert spread his hands, "Otherwise, you think Why do so many people want to get it?"

Hermione was a little embarrassed, "But the book only says that it can make elixirs of life and turn any metal into gold."

"Those are its two most basic uses. In fact, if you are a great alchemist like Nico Flamel, you can do many things with the magic stone." Robert said softly, "Many people want to get a magic stone. There are too many secrets and taboos in it, which is why Hagrid has always been unwilling for you to participate."

"What?" Hermione was a little confused, "Isn't it because Master Nico Flamel's alchemy level is high enough that he created the Philosopher's Stone?"

Robert smiled helplessly and did not explain anything to Hermione.

Although Nico Flamel's level is indeed very high, there are not many people who are higher than him.

Robert couldn't help but think of what he heard during a night outing in his freshman year. The Philosopher's Stone really requires human life to be refined, right?

Because the two young wizards were both unconscious, this inspection of the Forbidden Forest could only be suspended.

Robert's guess was correct. The mark had been washed away. As expected of Mr. Fu, even if it hurt like hell, he had to remove anything that might reveal his identity.

Neville was fine, just knocked unconscious, but Harry was in some trouble.

He began to have involuntary headaches and had nightmares all night long.

This made his face look ugly.

"Harry, you should rest more." Hermione was a little worried about her friend, "The dark circles under your eyes are getting worse."

Harry smiled bitterly, he didn't know how to explain all this, because it made him a little embarrassed.

To actually start having nightmares just because he was glared at by a hooded man, this is simply...

So cowardly!

Harry despised himself for being so cowardly. He was someone who even dared to face Voldemort. How could he be afraid of a little hooded man?

A week before the exam, Ron joined the study group again, perhaps because he had figured something out.

It was said to be a study group, but it was actually headed by Hermione, with Harry and Neville following behind her and trying hard to memorize.

"The elf rebellion is the key point. This is what Professor Binns mentioned in class!"

"Devil Emeric? You won't be able to take this test."

"Gespard Singleton, the inventor of the self-stirring cauldron, is a name you must remember if you don't want to get in trouble with Snape. Of course, I think he might hate hearing it from someone else." "

In the common room, Hermione was drawing key points for three people, "Okay, that's about it. As long as you answer them all correctly, gentlemen, you should be able to pass the History of Magic!"

She was right. When the little wizards threw away their quills and handed the parchment rolls to Professor Binns, they were happily liberated!

"There's only one week left." Ron lay next to Harry, stretching his limbs and yawning, "Just one week and we can go home!"

Harry rubbed his forehead, which was still aching.

Although he didn't know the cause of the pain, his instinct told him that it was definitely not a good thing.

Hermione was no longer in the mood to read. She looked at Harry worriedly and said, "Harry, why don't you go to the school hospital to find Madam Pomfrey."

Perhaps because he was a little irritated by the pain, Harry said angrily, "I'm not sick. I've had pain like this before, but not so frequently. Something bad must have happened! Yes, I remember the pain last time. After that, the water pipe behind my aunt’s house exploded! They punished me by depriving me of food for one night!”

"What...what?" Ron was shocked, "How dare they do this? You are the savior, and they dare to punish you by depriving you of food?"

Neville also looked at Harry in surprise. Apparently, none of the young wizards had ever experienced being punished and not allowed to eat.

"This is too much!" Ron shouted, "You should tell Headmaster Dumbledore and ask him to have a talk with them!"

If it was before he had a headache, Harry might have retorted that he would not go to Dumbledore for such a trivial matter, but today he was really tortured by the headache, and he actually felt that what Ron said made sense.

"Should I really discuss this with Principal Dumbledore?" Harry thought, "Maybe I can stay at school during the summer vacation without going back to see the Dursleys' faces."

Maybe they'll be happy not to have to see me!

The more Harry thought about it, the more it seemed possible, and he began to think about how he could convince Principal Dumbledore.
