Soon, he stood in front of a huge griffin statue on the third floor.

"ice……"

As soon as he said this, Mo Lin realized that he probably couldn't know the password to open the door, so he quickly changed his tone.

"Hello, can you tell the principal that I have something important but not urgent to ask him?"

After the words fell, the statue did not respond.

Merlin looked at the statue again, and resolutely pulled out his wand and began to tickle the gap between the feathers at the griffin's belly.

""Hahaha... stop... haah... stop now!"

The griffin statue suddenly shook into a ball, laughing until its wings spread out.

Mo Lin was unmoved and continued to tickle.

There was a crackling sound of joints shaking from the statue, but it still did not move.

"Enough, Mr. Merlin, let my lovely statue guard go.

Suddenly, Dumbledore's voice sounded from the corridor.

"The password is iced lemonade, you can come in"

""Squeak."

Following Dumbledore's voice, the statue suddenly retracted its wings and turned into a real statue, with a metallic luster all over its body.

If Merlin hadn't withdrawn his hand quickly, even his wand would have been stuck in it.

"Gargoyle?"

Merlin then realized that the statue in front of him was not just a statue or a creature, but a real high-level alchemical product.

Gargoyles are made from the corpses of magical animals, and can retain the strength and some thoughts of the animals when they were alive.

Before hearing the command, they will act in the form of the animals when they were alive and do things according to the master's instructions.

After hearing the command, they will turn into a statue.

Most suitable for guarding work

""Can you recognize Griffin?"

At the stairs.

Dumbledore was obviously surprised when he heard Merlin's voice.

This griffin statue has been placed in Hogwarts for thousands of years. Most people who have seen it know that it is some kind of magic statue.

Only a very small number of people recognize that it is a gargoyle.

However, these very few people are well-known figures in the magic world.

For example, Nicolas Flamel, members of the Wizengamot, senior Aurors, etc.

As a high-level alchemical product that is almost lost.

This is the first time that a young wizard has called out Griffin's name.

"After all, I can feel the magical aura on it. The real Griffin will not be so obedient."

"Besides, I am also an alchemist!"

Mo Lin stood up straight and said seriously

"Indeed, there are not many young wizards with such great magical talent and alchemy level."

Dumbledore nodded slightly and looked into Merlin's eyes.

"So what does our little alchemist want to talk to me about? You should still be in class at this time, right?"

"Professor Snape exempted me from this year's classes and homework because of my performance."

Merlin briefly explained what happened in the potion classroom just now.

"Very good, this is the first time I have seen a little wizard who can make Severus embarrassed"

"No, professor, this is not a humiliation, but a deserved reward for good performance!"

"Really?"

Dumbledore looked deep in his eyes and pretended to remind

"If Severus didn't say he passed the exam, Mr. Merlin, you should not be too relaxed."

"???"

Merlin was stunned for a moment, thinking carefully about what Snape said, and secretly cursed him for being treacherous.

He almost thought that he didn't even have to take the exam.

Fortunately, Dumbledore reminded him.

He must find a chance to ask clearly how the exam is calculated.

"Okay, now can you explain your purpose? Mr. Mo Lin"

"Actually, I'm not here for you, sir. I'm here for the Sorting Hat."

"Sorting Hat?"

Dumbledore was stunned and surprised.

He had been in school for decades, but this was the first time he heard of a young wizard coming to see the Sorting Hat.

The only reason he could think of was changing the school.

"Mr. Merlin, even if you want to change your house now, it has nothing to do with the Sorting Hat."

Dumbledore said seriously.

"I know, professor, I'm not here to change colleges."

Mo Lin said politely

"That is?"

"In fact, during the Sorting, the Sorting Hat wanted me to refurbish it.

Merlin told him what the Sorting Hat asked him to do.

Dumbledore suddenly realized.

"I once offered to help it renovate, but it refused. I thought it didn't like it, but it didn't like me."

"Professor, you are joking. It just doesn't like pink."

"Merlin! Are you here?"

As they were talking, the familiar sound of the Sorting Hat rang out, and there was also a sound of slapping something.

Merlin just stepped onto the last step of the spiral staircase and saw the Sorting Hat placed on the corner of Dumbledore's desk.

""Merlin, you're finally here! I thought you weren't coming!"

The Sorting Hat was so excited that it almost jumped off the table.

"Hey, Dumbledore, I want Merlin to help me with the renovation, you can't refuse, this is what you promised me"

"If you find someone willing to help, agree"

"Of course! You can leave with Mr. Merlin, but your idea may not come true."

"Why?"

"Didn't Gryffindor tell you? He left a complicated magic and alchemical array on you to allow you to perform a shallow level of Legilimency."

"In order to redesign your image, you must keep this magic circle intact and then transfer it to the new material."

"Before I said I would change it for you, I was trying to find someone to help, but he couldn't do it alone, and it happened that his wife preferred pink.……"

Dumbledore sighed.

"So, I'm sorry, your idea may not be realized by any little wizard in Hogwarts."

"Maybe Mr. Merlin can do it in the future, but I'm afraid he can't do it now."

The Sorting Hat looked dazed.

It couldn't accept this result.

Merlin was not surprised at all, but said seriously:

"Professor, you can actually just say it was Nicole Levitra. I know it was him."

"That would be more convenient."

Dumbledore nodded.

"Anyway, Nico and I have seen the formation on the Sorting Hat, which uses some ancient rune magic, and it seems that there are some special existences.……"

"Horcrux."

Mo Lin said calmly

"Hmm?"

Dumbledore stared at Merlin in surprise, even a little worried.

"How do you know about Horcruxes? This is not something a wizard your age should know."

"When I was reading in Flourish and Blotts, I happened to see a book mentioning this, so I went to look up the information."

"Honestly, it's a wicked magic!"

"In addition, when I was in the branch, I heard some other voices."

"What sound?"

Dumbledore asked.

He didn't even notice that he was relieved subconsciously after hearing Merlin think the Horcruxes were evil.

Merlin said what Slytherin had said to deceive him.

By the way, he said that collecting the relics of the four giants would give him Hogwarts.

This was also the result he had considered.

From what he knew, Dumbledore didn't really care who Hogwarts belonged to, he just wanted to kill Voldemort.

If the school could be controlled by Hogwarts students, he would probably be happier than those directors.

Moreover, Merlin believed that Dumbledore now would not care about anything else.

One Dark Lord was enough to give him a headache.

If there was one more Horcrux of Slytherin, he would probably not be able to sleep.

In addition, if the real enemy of the entire wizarding world could be changed, this should be a huge change, right?

I'm afraid Dumbledore would not have thought that the mastermind behind everything would be Salazar Slytherin, one of the four giants of Hogwarts.

Moreover, if he knew about the Horcruxes, he might be able to figure out how Voldemort would be resurrected in advance.

Now it depends on whether his words can change his mind.
