Chapter 699: Forward and backward

In Hogwarts, one thing that is almost universally acknowledged by little wizards is that "the history of magic is extremely boring."
Even so, it is still one of Hogwarts' required courses.
For thousands of years, many types of magic courses have changed over time as the times advance, but the history of magic courses has remained on the students' schedules, even if they have not been cancelled for a day.
If you have to ask "why", Maca McLean, who likes this course very much, may tell you-history, can answer your doubts.
As a certain problem, it has troubled many students and professors of Hogwarts.
They don't understand why the founders of Hogwarts chose such a distinguished branch of teaching. Some people think it is to teach according to their aptitude, others think it is to cultivate a sense of competition, and even some people say that this is simply a legacy of the discord between the founders.
However, these people actually think more.
Because just turning the ninth chapter of "A History of Hogwarts" tells us that Hogwarts is always one. In essence, the spirit advocated by each college is no different.
Moving forward bravely like Gryffindor may help you reach your destination; sometimes, if you choose to retreat calmly like Slytherin, it may not necessarily mean that you are one step further from your goal.
Although few students will be interested in this unobtrusive truth, the book Hogwarts A School History is just a few wizards who will keep it in mind. Coincidentally, it is theoretically impossible to read Ens of such a book, but because of the relationship between Slytherin and Hitchpac's closet, I have carefully read it several times.
"... Calm," Ens said secretly to the crowd. "Think about it, what should I do ... now?"
As he sank in silence, his pace slowed. While the current Malfoy's back is getting farther and farther, and finally finally drowned by the crowd, he turned around and walked back.
"Secret Chamber! Slytherin's Chamber! Now he's gone, isn't that the best time for me to go to the Chamber of Secrets?" destroyed--"
I returned all the way near the school gate, and I took a flying broom midway like last time, so that I could return safely.
Before long, carefully avoiding the eyes of others, Ens came to the girl's bathroom on the second floor of the castle.
Myrtle Myrtle didn't seem to be here this time, but saved some unnecessary delays. He soon followed the pipeline under the sink to the secret room located deep inside the castle.
"Yeah ... if I change, I'm afraid I will do the same ..."
As a matter of fact, he had already thought of this possibility after going back last night. Just do n’t come here to see it for yourself, ca n’t be reconciled, right?
That's right, At this moment Ens saw-behind the previous wall, there really was a "secret room in a secret room". Unfortunately, now it can only be called a "ruin in ruins".
Behind the hard stone wall where a large cave was smashed, there are traces of destruction everywhere in the small space. Debris from wood boards, scraps of paper sheets, and scraps of bricks all over the ground, even the walls of that stone chamber were covered with spider-like cracks.
It can be seen that it was a trace of being smashed by some force.
"Fix it!"
Standing in front of the gap in the stone wall, Ens wields a magic wand and casts a repair spell, but the spell does not produce the effect it should have. He didn't know if this was his lack of ability, or if the things here were indeed not restored.
With the light from the glowing curse of the wand, Ens saw some pages of paper pressed under the bricks, and he walked in unconsciously. He wanted to see if he could use his own hands to spell out the answers that might belong to him from these pieces of paper that might have important information left.
"Uh……"
He had just picked up a piece of scrap on the ground, and he hadn't even continued to force it, and the scrap turned into dry fines between his fingers.
"... Draco Malfoy!"
Ens, who was angering Malfoy for the completely rotten pieces of paper, did not know that the books and papers originally placed here could have decayed with the passage of time because of the preservation magic.
But at this moment, countless green dots of gush suddenly spewed out from the cracked brick wall behind him, hovering silently around him.
These tiny spots of light look like countless fireflies and look unusually beautiful.
And while Ens was astonished by this sudden and wonderful sight, they quickly scattered away, covering the severely damaged stone room with a phantom of pale green.
After a while, Ens suddenly realized that everything in the stone room seemed to have restored their original appearance. Because those light spots are now integrated into one, the original furnishings of Shishi are reproduced in the form of approximate images.
Desks, cabinets, tapestries, and hangers, with the exception of these images with a layer of greenery, everything seemed to be in Enz's vision.
He glanced left and right, then suddenly raised his head, a large map hanging on the wall above the desk was particularly clear. It can be said that these images look much clearer and more stable than when Maca himself injected magic into the original.
Yes, in fact, everything that Maca did when she came here to find clues was wrong. Only passing Slytherin's tests like Ens did last night is the correct way to launch these images.
Of course, there is no right way to say it now, whether it is Ens, Malfoy or Maca. After all, this place was exposed after being extremely "ripped up" by Maca from the beginning. No matter how you think this is the original intention of Sarah Slytherin.
"this is……"
Ens, who was attracted by that ancient map, just started glancing again because he couldn't understand the words marked above.
Last time Hitchpatch's letter was a variant of ancient Runi, but now on this map, it is obviously another ancient character. Seriously, if not necessary, he really didn't want to go to the dictionary with any ancient words.
"Ugh……"
Fortunately, after he was happy and depressed, and cast his gaze on the map again for a moment, a red circle, which was quite conspicuous in the faint green, pulled all his attention away.
Even if he can't understand a word, but since the prompt is so clear, what reason is there for him to complain?
Ens pressed the irritability in his heart, and firmly printed the position of the red circle and the characters marked next to him in his mind. After the shadow enveloped in the stone room gradually dissipated, he quickly left. This real Slytherin Chamber.
The map is clearly marked and the details are easy to understand. He can understand that the location should be in a mountain range. As long as he moves the things in his memory to the paper as they are, and then checks and compares, he will quickly find the approximate location.
As for what troubles and rewards there are, you won't know until you get there ... No, to be precise, maybe he has to find a way to get Malfoy to arrive in one step.
"The guy must be looking for that place ..." As Ens walked to the library with one heart, he had to be anxious under his heart. "There is too much time difference, I'm afraid it's too late ... in the end Now, should I really go and fight that Malfoy for that Slytherin gift? "
This is undoubtedly a very realistic problem-when the huge gap in strength is clearly in front of him, he can only choose to flee like the last night, and may not even escape the next time.
Walking on, Ens stopped moving forward again.
...
"Professor McLean, today's second round is about to begin, and my father asked me to inform you."
While Maca was hanging out with Harry and others in the staff room, Sarah knocked on the door of the room.
Although he actually wanted to relax a bit, after all, the event was still very important, and he had to get up and leave.
"Let's go! Although there is no way to take you all to the front seats to watch the game, today's game content should be much more interesting than yesterday. Check it out!"
After proposing to enhance the fun of the competition, such as Mr. Hohenheim ~ EbookFREE.me ~ As he said, the second round of today's competition will be more ornamental. It's just that the questions are all for the judges, so it's not even clear to him what the question will be today.
Considering that many players have been wiped out in the first round of the competition yesterday, the average level of the remaining contestants has naturally risen a lot, so even Maca can't help but look forward to it again.
A few minutes later, Maca, Harry and others spoke to each other at the entrance of the stadium, and went to their respective positions to wait for the game to begin.
"After yesterday ’s fierce competition, we have already bid farewell to the brothers and sisters who have worked this field. Believe me, their hard work will not be wasted. The remaining players will take their will and Determined to keep moving forward ... "
In the middle of the game, Lockhart, as the host, was still full of energy. The lines that popped out of his mouth were equally exciting and, as always, without half a word of truth.
"This role is really suitable for him." Maca couldn't help but smile slightly at the sidelines.
