HP Approaches the Magical World

Chapter 496 The Headmasters of Hogwarts

"You think..." The Sorting Hat was obviously very vigilant: "What are you asking?"

Jon looked around, but he still couldn't find where the ears of the Sorting Hat were, so in the end he chose to put the Sorting Hat on his head and let it read his thoughts.

"So you want this kind of medicine that can quickly heal your injuries? But to be honest, such medicines are very precious. If you want such a potion, why don't you go to Professor Snape?"

Listening to the voice of the sorting hat in his head, Jon replied with his thoughts.

"The magic system I learned is an ancient magic system, and there is a problem of system incompatibility with Professor Snape itself, and the most important thing is that ordinary potions are nothing more than potions like this that involve life safety issues. , I have to find some potions inherited from ancient times, after all, once the magic power conflicts, I will still suffer."

"There should indeed be records in Hogwarts, but you are definitely looking for the wrong one when you are looking for me.

I'm just a sorting hat. If you ask me about all kinds of students, I might be able to tell you something, but you should only ask the principal about the secrets of potions in the school.

And to be honest, even if the magic system is different, Professor Sprout and Professor Snape are both people who can give you some good advice about potions.

Do you want to get out of here first?

The principal's phoenix is ​​in a bad state recently. Because of this, the principal left the school to find magic medicine for it, and he won't be back in a short time. "

"oh?"

Jon took off his hat and put it aside, then turned to look at the bird's nest next to Dumbledore's desk.

He had heard early in the morning that the patron saint of the Dumbledore family was the phoenix, and he also knew the status of creatures like the phoenix in the magical world. He also learned from Grindelwald that the existence of the phoenix is ​​possible Inherited.

This magical creature is somewhat similar to the phoenix in Chinese mythology, but as long as you are familiar with the history of the magical world, you will know that the two belong to completely different magical systems.

First of all, the phoenix is ​​a member of the Greek mythology system, and Jon and Seshali have recently conducted extremely detailed research on the dead ancient Egyptian gods, and they have also found some phoenixes and some ancient Egyptian gods. associated.

Judging from the records of the appearance of the phoenix in the classics, many scholars believe that the phoenix may have been passed to Greece by Benu in Egyptian mythology.

Jon has no objection to this point. After all, after the ancient Greek gods defeated the ancient Egyptian gods, they moved many beliefs of the ancient Egyptian gods to their own gods. It is not incomprehensible that the mythical creatures of ancient Egypt were transferred from ancient Egypt.

According to the records in the history books of magic, creatures like phoenixes represent a kind of reincarnation.

Every five hundred years or so, the phoenix will collect various scented branches or grass leaves, stack them up and set themselves on fire. In the end, reborn young birds will appear in the ashes left behind.

This concept is very consistent with the characteristics of the ancient Egyptian gods. After all, what those gods pursue is resurrection from death and eternal life.

The ancient Egyptians regarded the sun bird as a symbol of the sun god Ra,

There is a sign of this sunbird in the Temple of the Sun at Heliopolis.

At the same time, because they will be resurrected from the dead, they are often regarded as a symbol of Osiris, the god of the underworld, and this is why Jon pays special attention to it.

Similar bird images have different records in various countries in the world, such as Garuda in ancient India, Golden Crow in ancient China, etc. Jon has always been curious about this magical creature, but he did not expect to be here today See you.

Although, this bird is almost losing all its feathers.

But this also reflects from the side that the bird is about to be resurrected.

If you want to be resurrected, you must die first. For a life like Phoenix, death is actually not an unacceptable thing. It is as simple as eating and drinking for human beings, but it is a little more troublesome.

Jon has clearly been here too long.

So much so that when he was concentrating on observing the phoenix, he could still hear the sparse voices coming from his side. This voice obviously came from the portraits around him. Those sleeping principals They have woken up at this moment, but now Jon is here and they have no way to communicate.

but what?

Jon felt that such behavior was meaningless. It's not that he has never seen these principals. When Dumbledore discussed with the principals, he never avoided him. Besides, everyone knows that pretending to sleep is really wrong. necessary.

Then, Jon suddenly remembered something.

He came to Dumbledore at this moment, firstly because he had some psychological problems that needed mediation recently, and secondly because he wanted to get some benefits from Dumbledore.

Because the starting point of everything between him and Seshali, whether it is research or other things, is based on the matter of life-saving, and the appearance of Grindelwald has improved the attacking ability of the two of them. Some abilities, so that Jon thought why they couldn't improve the power of healing a little, instead of thinking about how to come back to life after death.

Thinking of this, Jon thought about the recovery potion he mentioned to the Sorting Hat just now.

There must be no other way for Helga, because Helga's current state can no longer be distracted to prepare special potions for him. He can only find some substitutes from the mass-produced appearance.

After all, Hogwarts has been passed down for so many years, and has fought wars with the Holy See for so many years, so the reserve for war is quite sufficient.

Although there are some potions that wizards can no longer use now, they will indeed have a little miraculous effect when used on Jon.

He lingered by the wall of the principal's office, scanning his gaze among the portraits of the principals, trying to find someone he could rely on.

To be honest, the early headmasters and founders of Hogwarts, except for the portraits of Helga and Gryffindor, are missing a lot of portraits of other headmasters.

This is because Hogwarts was the main guiding place for the war between wizards and the Holy See from the founding of the school to the sixteenth century. Due to the war, there was no way to keep the portrait of the headmaster safe and sound until the early sixteenth century. Hogwarts had just returned to stability. Before that, the portraits of the headmasters were all incomplete, and their reign was not continuous.
