A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 16: Exploring the Runes

Back in the professor's lounge, which belonged to him alone, Felix began to arrange the room according to his own ideas, and various items, large and small, flew out of his suitcase.

After everything was arranged properly, he watched another movie as a pastime, and went to bed happily.

Early the next morning, Felix ran to the library and wandered through the Hogwarts Millennium Books.

On the first day of school, there were not many people who came to read the book. Felix picked the original copy of "Quest for Ancient Alchemy" from the restricted area, and read it with great interest.

Sure enough, the banned book has a card face, and the content inside opened his eyes. He even discovered seven ways to make the looking glass.

However, his purpose is not the alchemy products in the book. After all, this book is not young and many things are outdated. What he values ​​is the ancient rune circuits hidden in the alchemy products.

Ancient runes never appeared all at once and then declined all at once.

In the earliest unverifiable era, it was the barbaric age of magic. Some talented "people" struggled to build the foundation of the magic building. They sought the mysteries of magic from magical creatures and plants, and accidentally discovered that some lines could temporarily store magic power and transform into magical magic effects.

This is the earliest ancient rune.

With the continuous efforts of many pioneers, the number of runes mastered by wizards has increased, and powerful ancient magic and ancient alchemy have been derived from this, so human wizards stand out.

At that time, runes represented power.

With the development of the times, more and more potential "people" were discovered, and the number of wizards began to increase. They urgently needed a kind of writing to record their magical knowledge.

Some people got together, based on the magic text, derived an ancient text, and spread it on a large scale. At this time, most of the runes are actually powerless, and are only used as a carrier for recording knowledge.

Another long time has passed, and new and magical rune scripts have been discovered one after another. At the same time, the ancient scripts that were first created are also constantly developing and changing, and evolve by themselves around the world.

A large number of collocations, homonyms, mistranslations and irregular writings have occurred, which have brought countless troubles to future generations of researchers.

Then two events deeply affected all wizards.

The first was the invention of the wand, which made casting spells more stable and easier;

The second is the birth of simplified magic derived from ancient magic. This kind of magic may be slightly less powerful, but with the increase of a magic wand, it is not bad;

Best of all, this simplification magic is easier to learn and safer!

After another long time, the rune was abandoned by more and more wizards, and it gradually became a legend.

Today, runes are collectively referred to as ancient runes, and many wizards simply regard them as a kind of writing, and their only function is to translate the magic manuscripts of the predecessors.

Felix is ​​not interested in studying ancient history. What he wants is the "magic" ancient runes, or the original runes—as for the others, what are they?

But after all, learning is learning, at least it can be used to teach students now, right?

Those original rune texts are either lost or exist in the ancient magic books, and it is unknown where they are eating ashes.

According to Felix's research, this kind of rune is best preserved in alchemy, a branch of magic, and it even evolved and developed by itself, forming a set of its own logic system.

Judging from the current situation, runes and alchemy have nothing to do with each other;

But from the perspective of historical origin, an alchemy product often represents an ancient rune circuit, or its evolution. The longer the history of alchemy products, the more so.

That's what Felix wants!

At present, he has only mastered more than two hundred original rune scripts and more than a dozen rune rune circuits.

There is a long way to go.

One day passed quickly, and Felix had gained a lot. He discovered at least six brand new rune circuits!

If you can split these magic text circuits and return to the innate, bah! Returning to the original rune, he felt that his reserves could be increased by at least one-third.

What is a millennium background?

That's it.

Felix didn't even eat food this day-hey, who would eat if he has knowledge? Filling a bottle of potion will solve the problem!

Efficiency can be increased by seven percentage points!

Nobody bother him.

"Professor Haipu!" A lowered female voice greeted.

Felix looked up to see Hermione standing beside him holding a thick book. Glancing at the title, it was one of the books mentioned on his list.

Moreover, it happened to be his own book - "Exploration of Ancient Runes".

This is of course not a coincidence, Hermione is a very smart little witch, she really wants to get the position of "professor's assistant", but the book list given by the professor, there are too many books on it!

It's possible to skim through it for a week, but want to dig deeper? It simply cannot be done.

She must focus on a certain book and use other books as a reference.

Just now, when she spent half an hour picking out all the books in the book list, she unexpectedly discovered that one of them was written by the young professor! She immediately determined which book to focus on.

Do you still have to choose? Anyone who hesitates on this issue is mentally retarded, okay?

Felix and Hermione sat next to each other, not disturbing each other until the closing bell rang.

Hermione yawned indistinctly.

"Professor, good night."

She walked quickly with the book in her arms, and soon disappeared.

Felix moved his stiff neck lightly. Only then did he notice that he was about to starve to death!

After completing the borrowing procedures at the last minute, Felix swaggered into the kitchen ~IndoMTL.com~ Using "please", "please", and "thank you" as keywords, he exchanged the book from the house elf Three sheets of pie, a piece of cheese, and a jug of pumpkin juice.

On the road, he also encountered two little Hufflepuff wizards who sneaked out to give him extra food, but he just pretended not to see them.

Back in the lounge, he hurriedly finished his food and fell asleep.

The next day, the same;

On the third day, the same is true;

In the blink of an eye, it was Thursday morning.

Transfiguration class.

Harry and Ron saw Hermione who was leaving get out of class in a hurry, looked at each other, and hurried after her.

"Hermione, slow down!" The two were panting.

"What have you been up to lately? I haven't seen you all day long."

Hermione walked quickly, and she quickly replied: "I told you, you forgot?"

Harry snapped his shell. He is also very busy these days, busy with Quidditch training. Ron quickly recalled, "You mean, you're going to be that new professor's assistant?"

"That's right! But I'm not the only candidate."

The three of them came to the basement of the Potions class. Hermione took out the Potions textbook and put it aside, then took out another book and muttered something in her mouth. The thickness made Ron and Harry despair.

"This is your task? After reading such a thick book?" Ron glanced at the book with some fear.

"Not one book, but twenty books!" Hermione quickly recorded valuable things while flipping through them. This is already the fourth book she has read. It's all just a quick read looking for useful entries.

But the number of twenty books still makes her a little desperate, which also makes her quite irritable recently.
