Hogwarts starts with stealing power

The birth of the "Guardian Button".

For Hogwarts students, in addition to the guardian amulet, they can buy another item to protect themselves.

But for the wizarding world, it is a big surprise.

In places that Lin Xia didn't know, many wizards were discussing the "Guardian Button", including wizards working in the Ministry of Magic.

"Have you read the magazine "Ancient Alchemist"? There is a paper on the guardian button, which surprised me."

"Are you talking about the guardian button? Oh, of course I know this cute little thing, I like it so much, I even bought its formula there, and want to try to make it myself!"

"Haha, I made it last night, look!"

Some wizards also took out their homemade guardian buttons and showed off.

It's just the price of a gold galleon, who can't afford it?

But not all wizards can do alchemy, and there are many who can't.

These wizards have already purchased a guardian button through other channels.

Unlike the price of the formula, it is just an ordinary finished product, which can be obtained for one silver Sickle!

The knowledge cost of the Guardian Button is actually very low.

You only need to draw the Guardian Rune, find the material that carries the rune, and then shape it into the shape of a button, and then engrave the Guardian Rune on it.

A Guardian Button is almost complete.

It does not have any very advanced technical content. In Lin Xia's eyes, it only costs ten copper knuts to buy it.

But this price is set by Hogwarts officials. Perhaps the school knows the value of the Guardian Button better than her.

When the formula of the Guardian Button was launched in major secret key malls.

Lin Xia also quickly held a press conference on the Guardian Button at Hogwarts.

She applied to borrow the school's auditorium to hold a press conference on Saturday, and Professor McGonagall agreed very readily.

However, this press conference is different from previous press conferences.

Hogwarts did not allow adult wizards outside the school to come in to listen, only allowing young wizards in the school to watch.

But the school did not refuse reporters from outside.

Many newspapers may not be clear about the significance of the birth of the Guardian Button, but they can grasp the direction of the wind from this incident.

Obviously, during this period of time, they have noticed that the wizard world attaches great importance to the Guardian Button.

This wave of popularity is comparable to the natural magic wand invented by Lin Xia some time ago!

Neither the Daily Prophet nor the Quibbler can miss the opportunity to report on the Guardian Button Conference.

Saturday, 2 pm.

Reporters from various media entered the venue one after another.

Lin Xia stood above the stage, looking down and silently flipping through the information.

She was not looking at the information that was to be read later, but other magic runes.

After the birth of the Guardian Button, she has been looking for new magic items worth studying.

Ron and Harry, as assistants, will assist her in hosting this conference.

As for Hermione and Draco.

They have put a lot of effort in studying the Guardian Button, and they will also go on stage to talk about it later.

Ron stood on the stage somewhat stiffly, glancing at the increasing number of media below, and could not help but turn his head and discuss with Harry in a low voice.

"I saw that the reporter sent by the Daily Prophet was actually Rita Skeeter. My God, why did the Daily Prophet send her here?"

Harry asked in confusion: "Is there anything wrong with her?"

Ron: "Nothing wrong, no, she is just wrong. Do you know which section she is responsible for reporting?"

Harry shook his head.

Ron lowered his voice: "Entertainment section, gossip! She dares to tease anyone, including Dumbledore!"

Harry took a breath, "You mean, she dares to tease even Dumbledore?"

Ron: "More than that, she even dares to fabricate news about the headmaster!

The more famous and popular the wizards are, the more Rita Skeeter likes to report on them."

When Ron was talking to Harry about Rita, the gossip reporter, the reporters belonging to the media below the stage were also engaged in a confrontation.

As soon as Rita sat down, she saw her mortal enemy who always quarreled with her in the past.

That was a reporter from The Quibbler magazine.

The content reported in The Quibbler was even worse than what Rita wrote.

Translated into Muggle magazines, it would probably be: "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", "Celebrity Gossip", "Geographical Discoveries", "Discovering Aliens", etc.

As soon as D.J. Parado sat down, Rita's mocking voice rang out.

"D.J., The Quibbler must have spent a lot of money to get you in. I don't know how Hogwarts censors, but even an unprofessional reporter like you can get in."

As soon as D.J. heard the shrill voice, he knew who it was.

He said without turning his head: "Hogwarts' censorship is indeed not strict, and a gossip reporter like you is also here.

What, do you want to find Dumbledore here so that you can interview him about his so-called romantic affairs in person?"

Rita sneered, raised her glasses, and stared at Lin Xia on the stage with burning eyes.

She didn't come for Dumbledore, but for Lin Xia!

Originally, she didn't set her sights on Lin Xia.

In Hogwarts, besides the adult wizards, the most eye-catching young wizard should be Harry Potter.

What Rita wanted most was to interview Harry.

She wanted to ask him if he had any impression of Voldemort, and if his parents left him a huge inheritance and gave him additional trump cards.

As for whether these questions would offend Harry, sorry, that is not something journalists should consider.

What she wants to do is to dig out content that the public likes.

But at this moment, Lin Xia suddenly appeared!

Compared to Harry, Lin Xia doesn't have many gimmicks, but she is so smart!

Rita thought: She has invented four items in just two years of attending Hogwarts, which is enough to prove that Lin Xia has a very smart mind.

Such a person should be assigned to Ravenclaw, which is known for its "smartness and wisdom", rather than the mediocre Hufflepuff.

Maybe from Lin Xia, she can find the loopholes in Hogwarts since its establishment over a thousand years——

Using a classification hat to classify is the biggest mistake!

Of course, if Lin Xia was willing to communicate with her in detail, she wouldn't mind interviewing this little wizard about what he was thinking about when he was researching the topic.

What is the secret that allows her to continuously generate so much inspiration?

Just then, Rita noticed Draco and Hermione.

The two were communicating, and it seemed they had some kind of dispute, so they went to find Lin Xia together.

It was obviously a normal discussion, but in Rita's eyes, it meant there was adultery!

As a reporter with an extremely cold sense of morality, Rita felt that maybe she could report on the love triangle between these people.

Dijie turned his head and saw Rita's shining eyes, knowing that this woman was thinking of doing something bad.

He warned: “If you want to die, don’t hold me back!

If you make up the top students of Hogwarts and cause Hogwarts to no longer allow reporters to come in, you will compensate me for the loss! "

Rita snorted softly, and the cunning light in her eyes dimmed.

Top students at Hogwarts...

If she reported on Dumbledore, Dumbledore would not care about her.

But if she reports on Lin Xia...

Rita had studied at Hogwarts before and was an outstanding student. She also applied to stay in school when she graduated, but unfortunately she was not selected.

She knew very well what top students meant to Hogwarts.

This is new blood that can go to another world to explore!

They, adult wizards, had no hope of exploring that world.

But underage wizards like Lin Xia have great possibilities as long as they have great potential.

When Rita thought of this, she immediately stopped trying to make it up.

There was a thoughtful look in her eyes, maybe she could think of another way.

When Lin Xia raised her head from the information and glanced down the stage, she found that the media reporters were already in place.

She didn't know what she thought of, and turned to Draco: "Didn't your parents come?"

Draco shook his head with a serious expression: "I wrote to them, and they replied that they encountered something recently and were very busy, so they won't come this time."

Ron whispered: "Draco, you Malfoys are a pure-blood family. Could this chamber of secrets incident have anything to do with you pure-blood families?

If your parents don't come, they're not plotting something with other pure-blood families, right? "

Ron is also very ambitious.

This kind of question is impossible to ask until the relationship is good enough.

But now, the relationship between Ron and Draco is not at a level where they can discuss this kind of issue.

Draco glanced at Ron and said calmly: "Ron, don't forget that your Weasley family is also a pure-blood family.

Your parents didn't come this time. Could it be that they were plotting something? "

Ron was a little embarrassed. Did his parents not want to come?

But it didn't pass the review of Hogwarts and wouldn't be allowed in!

He loudly said: "Our family is Gryffindor, what does Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets have to do with us?"

Lin Xia interrupted their quarrel.

"Okay, if you have any questions, we'll discuss them in private. There are so many people down here, do you want them to see the joke?"

Ron and Draco stopped talking.

After an hour of waiting, the press conference of Guardian Buttons finally officially started!

As the main creator, Lin Xia was the first to take the stage to give a speech.

She revealed her inspiration for the guardian button. It first originated from her feeling that the guardian talisman was too crude, its power was difficult to determine, and it was easy to be destroyed.

Here, Lin Xia specifically mentioned a professor, Professor Babuling.

"When making the guardian buttons, I received a lot of guidance from Professor Babuling, and she was specially appointed as the communications professor of our team."

"Professor Babbling" comes out.

The media reporters who came in from the outside, including the professors at Hogwarts, couldn't help but have their eyes twinkling.

The guardian button press conference held by Lin Xia did not attract senior students to attend. Most of them were junior students.

They didn't take elective courses, so they didn't know Professor Babling.

Hogwarts is so big!

The scope of their daily life is just a small area in the castle.

The young wizards were whispering to each other, discussing who the so-called "Professor Babbling" was, and the adult wizards were also discussing softly.

"It was actually Babuling who gave her guidance, so is she someone Babuling likes?"

"Didn't Barbling say that she would not interfere in any of Dumbledore's decisions?"

"No, no, no, this is a very talented person with great research talent. Maybe Babel can't bear to see her talent buried, so she helps."

"Anyway, since this wizard is related to Babel, we can't contact her."

This time, many reporters from media and newspapers came, some with secret missions.

They originally planned to talk to Lin Xia after the press conference and ask her if she wanted to join a certain organization.

The organization behind them admired Lin Xia's research talents very much.

As long as she was willing to join, she could get a large amount of financial assistance, even strange and strange objects, and precious resources that could not be bought on the market.

The birth of the natural wand has made everyone see Lin Xia's potential.

And the birth of the guardian button has made everyone see her more talented side.

What a pity.

After Lin Xia finished her speech, it was Draco and Hermione's turn to speak on stage.

Ron and Harry mainly assisted these two people.

Hermione and Draco talked about the principle part.

The formula of the "Guardian Button" has been sold publicly, and this press conference is equivalent to a production explanation meeting.

The two little wizards explained the key points and difficulties of making the Guardian Button, and through the reports of major newspapers, the Guardian Button was spread to further places.

An hour later, the press conference officially ended.

Lin Xia waited deliberately, but no one came.

She was a little surprised.

Although the press conference of the Guardian Button was not as grand as the Natural Wand, the public opinion response it caused in the outside world was almost the same.

She thought that after the press conference, a lot of wizards would surround her to ask questions and interview her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the press conference ended, all the reporters left.

"Lin Xia." Professor McGonagall called her.

Lin Xia came back to her senses and asked politely: "Professor, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Professor McGonagall said: "Before you asked me about Transfiguration, I found a very interesting document. Come to my office and take a look."

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows.

Transfiguration?

The question she asked Professor McGonagall last time was about Animagus.

She asked: "Is it possible for wizards to determine their Animagus form in disguise through guidance?"

At that time, Professor McGonagall's answer was: "Unsure."

She didn't expect that after a week, she had found relevant literature.

As expected of a research madman who loves Transfiguration - McGonagall!

Rita still stayed in her seat, staring at Lin Xia not far away.

After thinking about it, she still didn't want to miss the news related to Lin Xia.

Even if she didn't make up some explosive materials, just a few simple interviews could be used as material for writing news in the future.

Rita had a hunch that Lin Xia would invent more magic items and would not remain silent.

Early interviews, if put in the future, would be out-of-print materials!

Rita stood up and approached Lin Xia quietly.

This was her habit as a professional reporter, subconsciously lightening her footsteps so that people would not notice her arrival.

However, before she approached Lin Xia, Professor McGonagall glanced over.

"Rita, long time no see." She nodded.

Rita nodded: "Hello, Professor McGonagall."

She looked at Lin Xia, "I came here this time to ask Lin Xia some questions."

Professor McGonagall said: "If you are asking about the protection of the button, I believe Lin Xia and the others have explained it very clearly on the stage."

Rita: "No, I'm asking--"

Lin Xia suddenly interrupted: "Professor McGonagall, I seem to have seen this senior sister Rita."

She said thoughtfully: "Senior sister Rita, have you ever won the most promising newcomer award of your year's "Today's Transfiguration"? I have seen the photo of you winning the award."

Rita smiled more sincerely, "Yes, I have won some awards, but they are not worth mentioning."

Lin Xia said appreciatively: "Since senior sister Rita has studied Transfiguration so deeply, you can discuss it with us!"

Rita was stunned, "What to discuss?"

Lin Xia: "I am discussing with Professor McGonagall whether wizards can artificially guide the Animagus form and whether wild Animagus can be identified through certain means."

Rita's heart skipped a beat.
