Archaeologists at Hogwarts

The weather in September was breezy and crisp, and the morning breeze passed through the window and blew on the figures on the two beds, one large and one small. They turned over at the same time and covered the quilts tighter.

The professor's office is not only an office space, but also a dormitory for the professors in the school. However, the two are usually separated by a door. The ancient magic professor's dormitory is located in the back half of the entire office, and it is the largest compared to other dormitories.

of a room.

The reason for not closing the windows when sleeping is because of the consequences of being an archaeologist. As long as it is not particularly cold, Toby will try his best to ensure safety while being able to hear the surrounding noises while sleeping, so as not to really lose sleep.

Wake up, die in a dream.

There is a golden horn placed above the bed, which is the horn of the Reem cow.

The Riem Cow is a XXXX level magical animal, very rare, like a giant cow with golden fur. The blood of the Riem Bull can temporarily increase the strength of the drinker. However, the supply of this blood is very small.

, so it is rarely available on the open market and it is not easy to get it.

This horn is one of Toby's many collections, and it was also found by him in ancient ruins, or it would be more appropriate to say it is an ancient cemetery. It is full of bones, as if a war had occurred.

Until now, Toby still hasn't figured out the origin of the Horn War. He doesn't know why the two sides started fighting. He can't even confirm who the two sides are.

However, this is normal in the process of exploring ancient ruins. Not every adventure can yield sufficient rewards.

But Toby still kept the horn, and it finally came in use——

When the sun slowly rose from the horizon, the sunlight shone on the horn, which was like a signal to start a war. Suddenly, bursts of the braying of Riem cattle came out from the horn.

Toby closed his eyes, stretched out his arm and touched back and forth on the bedside, grabbed the horn, and threw it several times.

The horn finally stopped blowing.

This is still an alarm clock.

"Get up, Al..." Toby said as he stood up in a daze.

Al stretched out his paws and got up too. He climbed onto Toby's shoulders and didn't even take off his nightcap. Toby pulled it off and threw it away.

The toothpaste in the bathroom has automatically squeezed onto the two toothbrushes, one large and one small, and they fly up to clean their teeth.

After washing up, Toby had changed his clothes, his long hair was pushed back, and Al also put on the half-moon glasses again.

Toby took out the teacher's schedule and took a look. There was a class for first-year students in the morning. It was estimated that this would be the first class for the freshmen at Hogwarts, followed by second-year, third-year, and fourth-year students.

till the end.

This was Toby's initiative. As a new course, if even the freshmen can accept it more easily, then there should be no problem for the old students behind it, unless their brains are like trolls and can't understand anything.

"I never thought I would one day return to school to teach."

Toby thought and murmured: "Then let's set a small goal first. At least it must be more popular than that guy Severus."

Al nodded in agreement, with an expression of disdain for Snape on his face.

The Ancient Magic Classroom is located on the seventh floor of the castle, on the same floor as Toby's office. As a professor, he does not need to go to the auditorium all the time to eat. The house elf in the kitchen can deliver breakfast to the office. He has done this for a long time.

It's been a while.

After eating and drinking, Toby went out, turned left, and walked a few steps to the classroom.

He came very early and there were no students in the classroom yet.

What he didn't expect was that Dumbledore came earlier than him and had already sat down on the sofa chair in the front corner of the classroom, reading a book called "Transfiguration Today".

"Morning, Toby, morning, Al."

"Morning, principal."

"ah!"

Being a professor at Hogwarts is not that easy. Even Dean McGonagall started out as an assistant in the Transfiguration course.

Toby skipped this stage directly, but whether it was for testing the new course or for Toby's consideration, he needed to be audited by the professor for a full week.

Headmaster Dumbledore is here today. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to this course.

Toby had nothing to be dissatisfied with. He was much happier than Snape.

It is said that Snape initially wanted to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts, but failed and became a Potions professor.

Toby was able to teach ancient magic from the beginning.

But Snape was also better than him. He was the Dean of Slytherin House as soon as he became a professor.

So, the score is currently one to one.

Toby was sitting at his desk, reading notes quietly, and the metal ball taken from Gringotts was slowly floating next to his head.

And Al was already standing on Dumbledore's shoulders, reading "Transfiguration Today" with him.

Dumbledore laughed gently but did not stop him.

Gradually, a group of students who had just finished breakfast poured into the classroom.

This reflects the benefit of Dumbledore's presence. They didn't dare to make any noise at all, and only dared to quietly glance at the strange Al (can he understand it?), and Professor Heimer, who was always looking at his notes without looking up.

.

His hair drooped down again because he lowered his head, blocking his eyes, looking like he was not easy to mess with.

This was a class shared by Gryffindor and Slytherin. Both sides looked at each other and sat on opposite sides of the classroom.

After a while, the class bell rang, and there was a rush of footsteps in the silent corridor. Harry and Ron hurried to the door of the classroom.

"Sorry, Professor Heimer." Ron gasped and explained, "We took the wrong stairs, and accidentally -"

"Late for no reason."

Toby suddenly interrupted.

He finally stood up, his hair flowing back one by one, revealing his angular face.

He didn't laugh.

"One point from Gryffindor."

His tone was very calm, but Ron's face suddenly turned red, and Harry lowered his head deeply.

They silently walked to an empty seat and sat down. A little blond boy not far away made a loud mocking sound. Harry turned his head angrily and recognized that it was Draco Malfoy whom he met on the carriage.

But at this moment——

"Disrupting class."

Toby said indifferently: "Slytherin will deduct one point."

Draco looked like he was being choked, no better than Ron.

The first class for freshmen has not yet started, but points have already been deducted from both colleges.

Next, Toby picked up the roll call and read out the names of the students one by one. Everyone who was called seemed to be sent to the guillotine in advance. Neville's voice trembled, but no one dared to laugh.

Toby put down the roll call sheet and looked at the students below.

"This course is called Ancient Magic. It is a course full of dangers and more dangers. I believe many of you have never heard of my name before, but that is not important."

"At least, not as important as ancient magic."

At this moment, the metal ball suddenly dispersed and fell to the ground as if it melted, turning into a silver and gold liquid that surged around like ocean waves. Many people were frightened and quickly raised their feet. They couldn't help but

Scream it out loud.

It seemed that in the blink of an eye, the silver covered the entire classroom, and the gold turned into thin lines, forming an extremely complex pattern on the silver. Only Hermione noticed that this was a magic circle, which was extremely rare.

six-pointed star.

Immediately afterwards, the magic circle emitted a burst of dazzling light, and the whole classroom was completely changed. They appeared at the bottom of a lake out of thin air. Many people quickly covered their mouths and noses, but found that they could still breathe.

At this time, Toby's voice sounded again, and a black shadow slowly swam across the lake behind him. It was so big that it was hard to tell what it was.

"I want to teach you something. This is my duty as a professor. But after thinking about it, I found that nothing seems to compare with the two characteristics of ancient magic."

"That's the danger, and more danger."

"It's like a magic circle that suddenly trapped you. This is not the most critical moment I have ever encountered."

"In addition, there is something even more dangerous. That is -"

The huge black shadow swam over, and it seemed that it finally found Toby. Many students pointed at Toby's back and shouted: "Professor Heimer, there is something swimming behind you!"

But Toby did not look back, but smiled at the students for the first time.

He finally continued, his tone just sparse and normal.

"die."

The bloody mouth opened wide and Toby was swallowed in all at once.

The students were all frightened, trembling and speechless.

Professor Hemmer...is dead?
