Hogwarts starts with stealing power

After the spells class, when Harry went to the Great Hall for dinner, he found Draco and thanked him.

Draco said indifferently: "It's okay, I didn't go against them because of you. Those people's words were really unpleasant. If it were any student, I would say the same thing."

Harry: "But thank you very much. You are the only one who stood up for me."

Draco shook his head, "Harry, you are wrong. In fact, many little wizards care about you. Although they didn't stand up, they expressed their concern for you in secret."

"For example, Lin Xia, oh, Lin Xia is not here today. She didn't have class. There are very important things waiting for her to do.

If she was here, she would definitely speak for you. Hermione, Ron, they all stood by you.

And the little wizards in Gryffindor have all expressed their kindness to you. If you didn't notice it, it might be that you didn't feel it with your heart.

Take me for example, I have seen the little wizards in Gryffindor several times, polishing the seat you often sit on, pouring hot water into your water cup, and always bringing you some snacks."

Harry was a little surprised, reflected on himself, and was very discouraged.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize this, I'm so lame!"

Draco patted his shoulder, "It's okay, it's not too late to know now, Harry, in fact, you don't have to be so self-deprecating, your family is also aristocratic in the wizarding world, you are more suitable for Slytherin than those who insult you.

So, hold your head high, you are no worse than anyone else, your family is worthy of your pride! Even your academic performance is already good for ordinary people.

Many young wizards are the type who accumulate a lot of experience and then burst out. They can't get into the state in the early stage, but they start to counterattack in the third and fourth grades. Temporary setbacks are nothing, let's see in the future!"

Draco was just comforting Harry, but he didn't expect that this comfort would make him realize it instead.

Yes, why should he be so anxious, it's not like he doesn't have time.

If they can't act together this time, then wait until next time.

As long as he doesn't slack off and keeps chasing, he can always see Lin Xia's figure.

Draco's mood suddenly became clear, and his expression changed slightly.

Just now he seemed to hear a slight "click" sound coming from his body, but there was nothing wrong with his body.

What happened?

It was not until he returned to the dormitory during lunch break that Draco suddenly realized that he had broken through!

He broke through the second level of the food realm, which had been stuck for a while, and reached the third level!

Thanks to the breakthrough of "Purple Gold Mysterious Gang Secret Record", Draco's magic talent changed again.

Dean Sprout felt the most.

She originally thought that Draco was a little reluctant to participate in the mission, but who would have thought that with two days left, Draco seemed to have made rapid progress as if he had opened his mind!

This is not just reaching the qualified line, but jumping from unqualified to excellent all of a sudden!

Lin Xia also made a breakthrough.

Just a few days ago, with the help of potions, she successfully outlined a complex magic circle in her mind and injected a wisp of consciousness into the transformed object.

Her mental power seemed to be stimulated by the potion. The potion can only temporarily improve mental power, not permanently, but Lin Xia's mental power has been promoted by the potion.

Just today, Lin Xia felt that her mental power had changed, so she asked Draco to ask for leave for her, and she stayed in the golden wooden house, constantly running the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records·Furnace".

The improvement of the furnace method is all-round. When it is stuck at the breakthrough and cannot move to the next step, the method will turn to broaden the body's foundation.

And when the physical foundation is also progressing slowly, the method begins to extend to the weakest part, trying to keep the body in a balanced state.

So this time, when she practiced deeply, Lin Xia not only felt that her mental power had changed, but even her soul was being consolidated.

When she opened her eyes again, she found that she had been running the method for three hours without realizing it.

This is incredible.

These three hours did not make her feel uncomfortable, and she did not feel that she was constantly squeezing her potential. Instead, it was like repairing her body.

Lin Xia fell into deep thought. She could not grasp the changes during the practice of the method at present, but she knew that this practice was very helpful to her.

Let's not talk about the distant, just take the near.

She had a hunch that she could draw the magic circle of "Mind Control Transformation Method" alone without the help of potions.

Her mental power has increased again!

Being stimulated by the potion that can temporarily increase mental power is only one of the causes.

On the other hand, her body is constantly growing and her mental power will naturally increase as she grows.

The furnace method can be regarded as supplementing the nutrients she needs for growth, so her mental power has ushered in a change.

This change has helped her a lot, which means that she no longer needs to rely on potions to use mind control transformation, and potions can be used purely as mental power supplements.

Without the frivolous improvement brought by potions, Lin Xia will be more flexible when controlling the transformed objects.

She glanced at the time and it was only noon. She would go to Professor Oti in the evening to tell her the good news.

In the afternoon, there was a Transfiguration class.

Lin Xia and Draco had been arranged by Professor McGonagall for other transformations, and Hermione followed the main group.

Lin Xia looked at her Transfiguration skills. In the next semester, Hermione will probably be able to kick out the main group and practice Transfiguration alone.

The Christmas holiday in the UK is the winter vacation, which lasts for a month.

After class, Lin Xia took the initiative to stop Harry and his group.

"There's only one day left before the Christmas holiday. How about we have a meal together?"

Ron said with excitement: "This is really a good idea. Where can we eat?"

Lin Xia said: "Just go to the auditorium. The auditorium is beautifully decorated. I will also ask the house elves to prepare food for us. I will take you to taste the delicacies from the East."

On a cold winter day, Lin Xia is determined to bring hot pot, a delicacy from the soul, to many friends.

In the Great Hall, Flitwick, Professor McGonagall and Hagrid were all there, busy decorating the Christmas decorations.

The auditorium at this time looked beautiful and spectacular.

The walls were covered with hanging flower ribbons composed of holly and mistletoe, and there were 12 Christmas trees standing around. Some of the trees were hung with shiny snowflakes and ice, and some were lit with hundreds of candles.

Professor Flitwick was still using his wand to spray out strings of golden bubbles and hang them on the newly moved tree.

While enjoying the hot pot, everyone admired the beautiful scenery indoors and the vast, snow-white outdoor scenery.

Hermione took the initiative to talk about her winter vacation arrangements. She wanted to read many, many books and learn many, many knowledges. She also urged Harry and the others not to forget to find out who Nick Flamel was.

"Speaking of this," Lin Xia handed Hermione a chocolate frog, "I recently made some new discoveries, in an unexpected way."

She motioned to Hermione to try the chocolate frog.

Hermione finished eating in confusion, and Lin Xia reminded: "Look at the picture above."

Hermione looked down, her eyes suddenly widened, and she jumped three feet high!

She exclaimed excitedly: "Ah! I just said that I am familiar with this name. It turns out that I have seen this name before. Come and take a look at this picture."

The back of the picture reads - Dumbledore's well-known contributions include: defeating the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, discovering the 12 uses of fire dragon blood, and his great achievements in alchemy with his partner Nick Flamel! "

She jumped up and said, "Wait for me, I know what book I'm going to find it in. I borrowed some old books from the library a few weeks ago and I read them for fun!"

"For entertainment." Ron was speechless and choked. Is this the top student?

Hermione wanted to run to the Gryffindor dormitories, she was eager to get the old books.

Lin Xia said at this time: "Hermione, don't worry, wait until we finish eating, and you can discuss it later when you return to the common room for evening study."

Ron agreed and said, "Yeah, let's eat first, and don't say anything about reading. I don't want to eat hot pot and read at the same time."

Hermione shrugged and reluctantly agreed, "Okay."

…

After dinner, everyone went their separate ways.

Lin Xia still went to Professor Oti's office, while Draco went to Dean Sprout.

Tomorrow morning, when the last class ends, the little wizards will leave Hogwarts one after another, and she and Draco will also set off to do tasks.

The dean did not disclose the location of the mission and kept it strictly confidential.

In the office, Professor Oti looked at Lin Xia in surprise.

In front of her, Lin Xia was able to use the high-end transformation technique of "mind control transformation method" without using any medicine.

This is really...

Professor Oti looked at Lin Xia deeply: "Little witch, your talent shocked me again."

She whispered: "Sprout told me that you have an outstanding talent for transformation. Mag also told me that he would recommend you to "Transfiguration Today" to compete for the annual Most Promising Newcomer Award. I was originally interested in you. Talent had expectations, but I didn’t expect..."

The anticipation was nothing more than that, it was simply speechless.

Professor Oti solemnly said: "Your transformation talent is comparable to Dumbledore!"

Dumbledore is recognized by everyone as the wizard closest to Merlin, and he is also one of the most outstanding wizards in this century.

To equate Lin Xia's talent with Dumbledore is the highest compliment a wizard can give.

Although it only refers to the talent of transfiguration, it is also very powerful.

Lin Xia said modestly: "Thank you for the award. I still have many shortcomings. This is just the beginning."

Professor Oti shook his head: "You have a good attitude, but being too modest is self-deprecating. I heard that you will leave the school tomorrow to do a task..."

She thought for a moment and took out a small item from the drawer.

It was a lifelike mantis, with every detail visible from its transparent wings to the stinging hairs on its heels.

If this mantis wasn't much larger than an ordinary mantis, Lin Xia would have thought it was true.

"This thing is my Christmas gift to you. Hold it in your hand and outline the magic circle of mind control transformation in your mind, and you can pour your consciousness into it.

Although it's a bit big, it's pretty good at hiding. It saves you the time of using the transformation technique. It's a gadget that I eliminated. "

Professor Oti specifically said: "After you go back at night, communicate with it more and get familiar with its feel."
