Chapter 32 Blood Transplant

Hermione still had some doubts in her heart. Although Hephis was very firm, it was only his guess.

Now no one knows whether Snape still loves Lily.

Hermione didn't continue arguing with Hephis, she didn't want to have an argument over this matter.

"Hephis, do you know a man named Nicolas Flamel?" Hermione changed the subject.

"Nicholas Flamel? What brings you to ask him?"

"You knew that?" Hermione asked in surprise.

"Nicholas Flamel is the greatest alchemist of modern times."

"The greatest alchemist?" Hermione looked at Hephis in confusion.

"Well, but he must be over 600 years old, and the Philosopher's Stone is his most outstanding work." Hephaestus continued to explain.

"Philosopher's Stone, what is that?" Hermione's eyes lit up.

"An alchemical item that can turn stone into gold and make people immortal." Hephes said with some envy.

"That's the Philosopher's Stone, Snape...someone is trying to steal it."

"Hermione!" Hephis was helpless.

It seems that Snape left a very bad impression on her, even though he was obviously a good person.

"Hephis, the Philosopher's Stone should be hidden on the fourth floor."

"What the hell, the Philosopher's Stone is in Hogwarts?" Hephis was very surprised. That was the Philosopher's Stone! He wanted it too!

"Well, we went to Hagrid's hut the afternoon after the Quidditch game and he let it slip to us."

"Okay, Hermione, it doesn't matter who steals the Philosopher's Stone. Dumbledore is still here. Who would dare to do it with him guarding?" Hephesus comforted.

"Okay!" Hermione thought about it and it was true. The greatest white wizard of this century was guarding it.

"By the way, Hermione, I've asked Theodore to collect materials. When we have time, we can go and renovate Hagrid's hut."

"Well, let's go together then."

Afterwards they began to look at the stars and the moon, and talked about poetry and songs and the philosophy of life.

"My little sister sent my lover to Damendong! But the weather was so bad that it was raining and windy!"

Hephis hummed a little tune happily and returned to the dormitory.

The shadow in the dormitory was transforming into a huge sword, flying slowly in the room.

Hephis stripped off his clothes and lay on the bed, and four big black hands massaged his body skillfully.

He took out the book given by Professor Quirrell and began to read it.

The book begins by talking about the three unforgivable curses: the Imperius Curse, the Cruciatus Curse, and the Killing Curse.

All three spells are only introduced with their names, without specifying the spells.

It also emphasizes that using these three spells will result in imprisonment in Azkaban.

But after each spell, there is a detailed description of its power and effect.

Hephis immediately realized that Quirrell was probably not a good person.

On the surface, it appears to be just a basic introduction to the three unforgivable curses, and it also contains a warning, but in fact it is more like a temptation.

Hephis continued to flip through the pages to see what Quirrell was up to.

Suddenly Hephaestus sat up.

Blood transplant magic.

This is a kind of magic that can extract the innate magical power in magical creatures through blood and transplant it into oneself.

The book also highlights the Holy Twenty-Eight Families.

They have their current status because their ancestors once had bloodlines with magical creatures.

Hephis read the method of extracting blood talent carefully.

It seems that this is the bait that Qi Luo put out, the bait that made him bite the hook.

Although the method of extracting blood magic is described, many key points are vague.

Not to mention the transplantation method, which is only briefly mentioned in the book.

It even emphasized at the end that blood transplantation would bring strong side effects.

Some specific means are needed to circumvent it, but such means are not written here.

Quirrell knows how to write, but he is a complete idiot.

Since Quirrell dared to give him this book, it proved that Quirrell was very sure that he would take the bait.

Hephis was sure that neither other professors nor the Hogwarts collection would have relevant information on this part.

If he wanted to learn, he could only go to Quirrell.

It seems that Quirrell knows him very well, otherwise why would he give him such a book.

Lately, Hephis has been increasing his magic power by devouring shadows.

After all, it was Hogwarts, and he did not devour the maximum number of shadows that suited his own needs as he had done before.

He only swallowed four at a time, which put almost no burden on his body.

Although the change is not big, he is indeed thinner than before.

It seems that Professor Quirrell is very observant and can discover this.

He was not interested in the three unforgivable curses, but he really wanted to learn about blood transplant magic.

It seems I have to go to Professor Quirrell.

Let’s see what he is up to.

Thanks to the blessing of Shadow Devouring, Hephis made rapid progress in brain occlumency.

Soon, he entered the actual defense stage with Snape.

Perhaps it's because he has been devouring other people's shadows for a long time, and his brain naturally has a powerful defense mechanism.

Even if Snape tried his best, he could only see the false memory woven by Hephaestus, but could not see his true thoughts.

This made Snape surprised at his talent and also very pleased.

In this way, Hephaestus could protect his meager brain from being explored by most people.

Snape finally stopped squeezing Hephesus so hard, which gave him some time to rest.

But he was not in a hurry to find Professor Quirrell.

He must go to Quirrell's place. When Hephis was reading novels in his previous life, he particularly hated those who misinterpreted the text, so he must go and teach them a lesson.

The main reason was that he hadn't been alone with Hermione for a long time, and he planned to use his free time to experience the snow-covered Hogwarts with Hermione.

Besides, the Christmas holiday is coming soon, so I will wait until it’s over before I start to scheme against Quirrell.

Hermione is going home for Christmas, and Hephis plans to ask Professor McGonagall to take him to the Ministry of Magic to inherit the inheritance.

Originally, he had not planned to inherit the estate so early.

After all, there are other relatives around, and who knows if they will cause trouble.

But it doesn’t matter now. He beat up those pure-bloods as soon as he entered the school, so there’s no need to worry about any trouble.

So don’t miss it.

Early one weekend morning, Heffie, Hermione and Theodore came to Hagrid's hut together.

Hephis prepared to give Hagrid an early Christmas present.

He knocked on the door. "Hagrid, are you there?"

From behind the door came Fang's low growl, followed by Hagrid's gruff voice: "Fang, stand back."

After a while, Hagrid's burly figure appeared at the door, pulling Fang's collar with one hand and pushing open the wooden door with the other.

"Oh, Hepherd, Hermione, and this little wizard, welcome, welcome!" Hagrid greeted them warmly.

"Hagrid, this is Theodore," Hefeth introduced.

"Hello, Theodore. Please come in."

Theodore greeted Hagrid politely and followed him in.

ps: Let me explain the questions from the readers.

Proposing the concept of blood transplantation does not mean that the protagonist is not doing his job.

Mainly because the protagonist wants to be powerful, in addition to learning magic, he also strengthens the power of the shadow.

But the top fruit masters in the world of "One Piece" also have top-notch physical fitness, so physical strength prevents the protagonist from becoming stronger.

Based on this, the author proposed the concept of blood strengthening.
