Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 223 The soon-to-be-launched Luo Tai cultivation plan (dense fog)

"You look good? Did something good happen to you?"

After Connor's selective amnesia, he returned to his room and started a remote Facebook call with Dumbledore.

"It's nothing. I just learned a new magic. I'm very happy."

Dumbledore in the camera shook his head and smiled: "It's a good thing to like learning, but everything must be done in moderation..."

Connor shrugged and began to open the letters piled on the table, while casually asking: "So... Professor, what do you want from me?"

"I do have something to tell you..." Dumbledore was writing something at his desk. He said without raising his head: "Half a month ago, I heard that someone saw a killed lone man in the Albanian forest. Horned beast…”

"Forehead."

"...I knew then that he was back, and his condition should be very bad, to the point where he had to rely on unicorn blood to survive..."

Connor put down the letter and tried to look serious. After all, the leader had to give some face when making an important speech. He knew that the "him" Dumbledore was talking about was Voldemort.

"...I thought he would continue to look for something that could extend his life...so I had an immature idea..."

Connor listened quietly to Dumbledore's performance.

"The most famous, most effective, and life-extending magic item known in the world is the Philosopher's Stone. Connor, do you know about the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Well, the legendary Philosopher's Stone, which can turn stone into gold and create the elixir of life, represents the pinnacle of alchemy. Only Nico Flamel has successfully created the Philosopher's Stone in the world." Connor opened his mouth.

"Yes, I judge... that the Philosopher's Stone is very attractive to him, and Nico's Philosopher's Stone... is kept in Gringotts." Dumbledore finally finished writing. He raised his head and looked at Connor through the camera. , said: "So, I set up a trap... I threw the bait with a trying mentality... and then the fish bit the hook."

Dumbledore didn't go into details, but Connor could probably guess. How did Voldemort know that the Philosopher's Stone was hidden in Gringotts? The answer to this question is already obvious…

"Now I can say with certainty, Voldemort, he is back."

"..." There should have been thunder here, but neither Connor nor Dumbledore was surprised, so they didn't scare themselves. Seeing that Connor didn't react, Dumbledore continued:

"I guess you have also read the news about the invasion of Gringotts by thieves. That person is Voldemort, and he must have known that the Philosopher's Stone was brought back to Hogwarts..."

Dumbledore narrowed his eyes: "So will he follow the clues and come to Hogwarts? Connor, what do you think you would do if you were the Dark Lord?"

? Why are you asking me all of a sudden? Connor scratched his head and replied truthfully: "Then I will definitely choose to give up the Sorcerer's Stone. After all, with you in the school, no one can steal the Sorcerer's Stone from under your nose."

"Your idea is right. It is almost impossible for ordinary people to steal things from under my nose..." Dumbledore smiled under his beard: "But Voldemort is not an ordinary person. I know him. He is proud and arrogant, and he likes Taking the wrong path..."

"So you think he's going to come to school looking for the Philosopher's Stone?"

Dumbledore nodded, shook his head, and said, "Yes, and no, Voldemort has another biggest characteristic, and that is - fear of death."

"Forehead…"

"His so-called pursuit of immortality is actually a fear of death, so normally... he would not dare to appear in front of me..."

"If he really dares to appear in front of me, that is actually a very bad sign, because it means..." A shadow appeared on Dumbledore's face:

"He doesn't think I can kill him! If he really dares to come to school and wants to steal the Philosopher's Stone under my nose, then it means that Voldemort has mastered a power that I don't understand, an unkillable Dark Lord... Then It will be a very big trouble..."

"..." Connor felt that Dumbledore could think of so many things with so little information... It's quite remarkable. He is an old fox who can think far and wide. Unfortunately, he lost in the end by just one move. Lost.

But Connor couldn't directly tell Dumbledore Voldemort's secret. He was just a smart student, not a prophet. If he directly told Dumbledore about the Horcrux, he might not have just killed Voldemort over there, but Connor here. I was also taken away by the way.

Connor would not reveal his biggest secret, especially in front of Dumbledore.

"So, professor, what do you mean?"

Dumbledore paused and continued: "So I am waiting to see if Voldemort really dares to come and steal the Sorcerer's Stone. If he really dares to come, then I guess he will probably get mixed up with the students returning to school. ——He always likes to confuse people, so Connor, I have a task for you..."

? Didn't Dumbledore discover Voldemort parasitizing Quirrell? Connor raised his hand and interrupted Dumbledore: "Wait a minute, Professor, do you want me to help you observe if there are any abnormalities among the students returning to school?"

"That's right, no..."

"I guess there's no need to bother at all."

"Um?"

"Isn't it our school's tradition to change the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher every year?" Connor spread his hands as a joke.

"Huh? Oh, you mean...emmm, this is indeed very possible. Let me see who the new teacher is applying for this year..." Dumbledore took out a piece of paper from the drawer, and then he kept nodding: " Oh, it turns out to be Quirrell, this...I think...you probably guessed it right..."

Dumbledore stroked his beard: "Quirrell is indeed a very questionable subject... However, Connor, you still have to do your job. I will send you a small prop for detecting dark magic energy in a few days. You have to get it back." Everyone on the school train should check..."

Connor shrugged: "Okay, okay, but why should I do such troublesome work? It's a waste of my time..."

"Young people can't be so lackluster..." Dumbledore shook his head: "Besides, I also hope you can do me a favor..."

"What else? Professor, my time is very precious!"

"It's not a troublesome matter. Among the young wizards, I am only familiar with you, so I have to leave it to you." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"..." You're such a bad old man, are you still familiar with it? Connor was furious.

"That boy, Harry Potter, he will also enter school this year..."

Dumbledore's tone was a little complicated: "I chose to leave him with his Muggle relatives back then. There were many considerations. First, he had ancient guardian magic, which can only take effect if he lives next to blood relatives..."

"Secondly, I don't want him to live in vanity since he was a child and become famous when he can't walk or talk. This will make any child go to his head..."

"He is the prophesied savior, and I hope he can become a qualified [hero]."

Hearing Dumbledore's controlling words, Connor raised his eyebrows and asked, "So what do you want me to do?"

Dumbledore smiled and said: "I would like to ask you to observe that child, and if possible, give that child the right guidance. I think... for the genius of the Lake family who is good at creating [characters]... you should have a good understanding of what [characters] are." Heroes] have the right understanding.”

"Huh? Do I still want to help you as a nanny? Professor Dumbledore, don't you think these requests are too much? I refuse! I want to study! I have a lot of work..."

"I just heard yesterday that the Lake family put my image on the billboard, and I had no idea about it..."

"Okay, Professor, helping others is one of my few strengths, so I agree to this."

... Connor closed Facebook with a toothache. This bad old man, who had clearly agreed to this matter before, actually said he had no knowledge of it...

Dumbledore, black, really black.
