Archaeologists at Hogwarts

The two of them did not pursue the topic of memory any further, but began to discuss tonight's bizarre experience.

Dumbledore said: "I specifically asked Mundungus to collect centaurs' belongings. He probably met the thief by chance, so the other party took advantage of him and tried to trick him out of you.

information."

Toby thought about it and said: "So, the centaur sculpture should be no problem. But the key point still lies in the internal response in Hogwarts - by the way, principal, who is going to steal the Sorcerer's Stone?

Just an ordinary dark wizard?"

"It's not certain yet." Dumbledore deduced: "But judging from the theft of Gringotts and Nick's forced move of the Philosopher's Stone, it is definitely not an ordinary dark wizard - you know, since Nick created

Ever since the Philosopher's Stone, there has been no shortage of wizards who want to give him ideas."

Toby was in no hurry to interrupt Dumbledore's thoughts.

Under his gaze, Dumbledore said calmly: "But Nick does have a doubtful candidate, and he has similar ideas to me - Voldemort."

He said the name in front of Toby and had no choice to continue to hide it.

Toby's eyes suddenly became extremely gloomy.

Dumbledore continued as if he hadn't seen it: "Nick and I agree that Voldemort will not die so simply. He has told his servants more than once about his great achievements - transcending death. If Voldemort really comes back,

We even infer that he would want to seize the Philosopher's Stone - it will never be for eternal life. The Philosopher's Stone cannot prevent the body from aging. This is a price Voldemort will never be willing to bear, and he is unlikely to be willing to rely too much on it.

The Philosopher's Stone achieves the goal of eternal life. It cannot be for gold. Voldemort does not need to deliberately seize wealth. Once he makes a comeback, someone will naturally give it to him."

"We speculate that Voldemort most likely hopes to use the Sorcerer's Stone to reshape his body. This is also one of the magical uses of the Sorcerer's Stone and is not known to more people. Of course, this is just a guess."

Toby didn't think this was just speculation, he believed Dumbledore's words.

"Mysterious man, Quirrell..."

He repeated these two names, his long hair slowly hanging down, but his eyes were always fixed on Dumbledore.

"This sounds like an opportunity, an opportunity to get rid of it once and for all. The mysterious man is undoubtedly extremely weak, otherwise he would not have disappeared for so many years. You really shouldn't tell me this secret, you know what I will do next

What."

The two people looked at each other calmly.

Toby finally asked: "So, are you going to stop me, Headmaster? I left England not just because I disagreed with you -"

"Of course I know what's going on." Dumbledore sighed softly: "It's also your fear of Voldemort. To this day, you are reluctant to call him by his name. But this is normal, after all, you were still afraid of him at that time.

He is just a newly graduated student, not to mention that he has been targeted by Voldemort early because of ancient magic. Leaving the UK is a very shrewd decision."

"I also know the consequences of telling you this matter, so I chose to let Severus keep an eye on Quirrell instead of letting you do it - because once you know it,

The reason is that you will definitely press for clues about Quirrell and Voldemort as soon as you leave the office - maybe you will also use the ancient magical methods that you are proud of."

"Of course I will do that." Toby said frankly: "After all, that is the mysterious man. His pure-blood supremacy is something I cannot accept in any case. I am just a Muggle-born, and I am what those people say.

Mudbloods, they killed too many of them during the Wizarding War, which made me feel very uncomfortable when I was in school, especially when I was sorted into Slytherin House."

Dumbledore looked at him keenly: "Don't tell me what you are going to say about being ostracized and treated indifferently. We both know that it's not that they don't want to provoke you, but that they don't dare to provoke you, otherwise you will also use

You don’t have to be lectured so many times by me.”

"But what can I do, Principal?"

Toby seemed to have returned to his student days at this moment, when he was sitting face to face in front of Principal Dumbledore, and even his excuse for getting rid of the lectures remained unchanged.

"I have spared their lives, what else do you want me to do? They shouldn't provoke a Muggle-born Slytherin. If you look at the comparison of blood levels, I am better than Slytherin himself.

Be more Slytherin."

"Speaking of which, you and Professor Slughorn helped me figure this out - why was I sorted into Slytherin House? This must be because I have some qualities that cannot be ignored.

I have discovered these qualities a long time ago, so no one else would dare to mess with me, otherwise they would be in bad luck afterwards, and many of them would even be admitted to the campus hospital before they messed with me."

"I never taught you this." Dumbledore said with rare anger: "I explained it to you later, maybe because when the founder was injecting ideas into the Sorting Hat, Slytherin and Gryffindor

They are still close friends with deep friendships, so they will at least respect each other's ideas, and there will be a chance for you to be sorted into Slytherin House - Gryffindor will not reject new students because of their blood."

Toby curled his lips and did not refute again, acting like a student who did not listen to advice - in fact, in front of the principal, he did have this identity, and he almost always did this in the past.

Dumbledore sighed deeply.

"Okay, Toby," he said, "let's get on with Quirrell. I really wasn't going to tell you this before, but after what happened to you tonight at the Hog's Head, I don't want to do that anymore.

It's too much to hope for. But I want to remind you that Quirrell is not more important than finding the secret of Voldemort's transcendence of death."

"Beyond death..."

Toby no longer lost his temper. He thought seriously: "Over the years, I have seen some existences that transcend death, such as mummies that cannot be killed... But the mysterious man's way of immortality, maybe

Is it because of ancient magic? No, it definitely belongs to the category of ancient magic. Other than the magic of immortality within a thousand years, I only know about the magic stone, and even the Pharaoh's mask was created at least before the founder's time."

Dumbledore obviously knew the information about the Pharaoh's mask, and he and Toby exchanged many contents in letters.

But Toby wanted to focus on Quirrell, and now there was another reason - ancient magic.

He stood up excitedly, his veiled eyes becoming more dangerous.

"So, there are not only clues about the mysterious person in Quirrell, but also about ancient magic?!"

"sit down!"

"......oh."
