Chapter 425

Well, Taylor shouldn't be angry at all.

After all, even she has preemptively occupied a slightly different place in Luke's heart.But she is also very clear.That is, they are still too young now.

People of this age, no matter how mature they are, even if they have a good impression of each other, they will never have the time to talk about the so-called love.It's not just her own thoughts.More important is this Luke's idea.

It's not that Luke doesn't like these cute girls.But...too young.It will make him feel too guilty.

Therefore, the future is still long, time flows slowly, don't panic about love.

Luke smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "I remember Hermione told me before. Her research on memory magic is actually almost done. So I plan to take her to see the Room of Requirement."

Luke had mentioned the Room of Requirement to Taylor and the others long ago.Taylor also knew that it might be the inheritance of Ravenclaw.But Luke couldn't be sure if it was true or not.After all, when talking with the Ravenclaw there, Luke never trusted him much.

But now, after receiving Slytherin's advice, his impression of the other party has changed a lot.So I plan to take Hermione to test it first.

Taylor looked at Luke, then sighed, and said, "Don't make yourself too busy. I don't know what you've been through these days. But your exhaustion is also written on your face. "

Luke heard this and subconsciously touched his face.He himself didn't feel any change.The skin may indeed have become a little worse.But on the whole, it is still within his acceptable range.

He is indeed a lot of things.But he still doesn't care much about such trivial matters.

"Well, I see. Then don't worry, we can talk about it tomorrow."

Luke was very persuasive.I didn't feel it just now.After being reminded by Taylor, he really felt sleepy.

"Yawn~~~"

Luke shook his head, then said, "Go to bed first. Dumbledore should be here later."

"I'm already here."

Dumbledore's voice came from the door.

Both Luke and Taylor turned their gazes over there, and sure enough, they saw Dumbledore in pajamas.When Luke looked down, he saw the pair of fluffy rabbit slippers, and he didn't know how to say hello.

Taylor bowed slightly to Dumbledore as a greeting, then turned and walked towards the dormitory.She was indeed also curious about Luke's experience these days.But for now, it is better to leave space for these two people.After all, speaking of it, these two people will inevitably talk about some relatively secret things, which are not suitable for what Taylor knows at this stage.

Faced with such things, Luke usually keeps them tight-lipped.It's not that I don't want to say it, but I really can't say it.Although the rule of this world is not that "knowledge that is too advanced is equivalent to poison", no matter where it is, it is not uncommon for people to fall into a situation where they know a lot and fall into a situation where they are too ambitious.

Knowledge that is too secret is likely to attract some unnecessary pursuits.

Luke looked at Dumbledore in silence, and Dumbledore also looked at Luke in silence.

The old and the young looked at each other silently, and seemed to have a tacit understanding.

"Tell me. I'm listening."

Dumbledore himself found the first place to sit in the lounge.Looking at the dusty young man in front of him, and the seemingly inconspicuous Joe wrapped around his shoulders, Dumbledore actually felt a little bit of pressure.

"Let that one come down too. Or go to rest first."

When he spoke, Luke certainly knew who he was talking about.Before he could speak, Joe jumped off his shoulders and asked Luke, "Where's your room?"

Luke didn't answer immediately, but tapped his finger lightly in the air, and a butterfly made of green light appeared in the air.

"You follow it

let's go. "

Luke said to Joe.Joe was also polite, and nodded to Luke.Then she looked at Dumbledore.Dumbledore was not arrogant, and first showed him a friendly smile like greeting him.

Joe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, but also nodded to Dumbledore.

Then he followed the butterfly made of magic towards Luke's room.

After the other party disappeared from sight, Dumbledore turned his head and looked at Luke who was already sitting opposite him, lazily and listlessly.

"Where did you find such a thing?"

Dumbledore asked curiously: "It looks like a long-horned water snake, but compared with the long-horned water snake, it feels different in germplasm."

[In view of the general environment,

Dumbledore felt vaguely as if he had heard of this creature somewhere.But I can't remember it for a while.No way, old is old.The decline of human physiological function can be alleviated by magic, but even so, Dumbledore is about to reach the limit.

Luke smiled and said, "I found it from the Forbidden Forest. Are you surprised or not?"

"..."

Dumbledore was taken aback.He knew that there were still many unexplored things in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and some things were very dangerous for others.

But he still really didn't expect that in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, there are actually existences that can bring him a little pressure.In other words, this thing can indeed hurt Dumbledore on certain occasions.Of course, if you really beat Dumbledore one-on-one, that would be thinking too much.Not to mention that magical animals are inevitably controlled by their own bestiality during the battle, so that they are not as flexible as wizards of the same level.

In terms of hard power alone, the upper limit that wizards can achieve is greater than that of ordinary magical animals.

Although Dumbledore has not touched the upper limit.But he has been able to see that ceiling.And before reaching that upper limit, every step forward he had to use up all his strength.The so-called summit is often the most difficult time.

Dumbledore actually didn't have much pursuit of his own strength.He is what he is today not only because of his high talent, but also because he has good teachers and helpful friends around him.

But now, the limit of what talent can achieve can already be seen, and almost all good teachers and helpful friends have passed away or been imprisoned.So he doesn't have much to pursue.

However, the appearance of this snake now made him feel like he underestimated the heroes of the world.But really don't need to worry too much about it.

"I didn't expect this kind of thing to exist in the Forbidden Forest. Have you seen anything more dangerous?"

Dumbledore asked, frowning.Joe's presence brought him a certain sense of crisis.Not that Joe could threaten his life.It's because if the Forbidden Forest is really so dangerous, then the restrictions on the Forbidden Forest will be stricter.

At the very least, it is completely forbidden for junior students to enter the Forbidden Forest.He couldn't turn a blind eye anymore, and neither could Hagrid.

But facing this problem, Luke could only shrug his shoulders helplessly and said, "I haven't gone too deep either. The position where Joe is is the limit of my depth. I still haven't approached the true center of the Forbidden Forest."

The area of ​​the Forbidden Forest certainly cannot be said to be small.But to say it's big, it's really not an exaggeration.

Riding a Hippogriff can easily cross the entire Forbidden Forest without necessarily encountering any danger.Even many little wizards like to ride a broom to circle the Forbidden Forest when they are free to move around during flying lessons.

But the guy who does this kind of thing, never had a professor exist.

Even if there was such a big commotion in the Forbidden Forest back then.Your actual range of activities is still at the outer edge.Did not go deep into the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

It's like a restricted area there, rejecting anyone who knows what to do.

As for those who don't know.It did go in.But I haven't seen it coming out.

Dumbledore nodded in response to such words.he still

I really believe what Luke said in this regard.Very trustworthy.

The trust between the two is developed bit by bit.So not only the trust in each other, but also the tacit understanding of what can be said and what cannot be said.

"Then tell me where you've been during this time." Dumbledore stretched out his hand to pinch the candle in the middle of the table under the dim moonlight, and then the candle lit up, marking the faces of the two people. Warm light yellow.It also softened the overall somewhat chilling and deserted atmosphere a lot.

"That still has to start with Joe."

After thinking for a while, Luke started to talk about all these things.

Dumbledore was deeply shocked from the very beginning.Whether it's Joe's power, or the wonders deep in the Forbidden Forest, or the magic of the Tree of Time and Space, and 600 years, what Luke saw and heard in the Middle Ages.All of these gave Dumbledore a sense of magic and mystery in the world.There was even a moment when he felt his desire to explore the world was rekindled.

But it was just an illusion, the exhaustion brought by his aging body made the flame in his heart quickly extinguished due to lack of fuel.

After Luke talked about his battle and the communication with Slytherin, Dumbledore fell silent.The ceiling he really thought he saw.Although I can't reach it, I am already satisfied.Although he has a gentle temperament.But when he was young, he was also fierce and brave, and quite proud, even arrogant.

Right now, he is still staring at the ceiling in a daze.And as early as six hundred, or even more than 1000 years ago, someone touched the ceiling and was trying to break through the ceiling.Even if it's just to drill a hole and give yourself the idea to see the wider world.

Therefore, facing such a situation, even Dumbledore couldn't help but fall into the emotion of "I'm not as good as it".

Luke did not add those excessive embellishments when explaining the situation.The whole story is actually a bit boring to listen to, and it can't fully show the loneliness of common people, the luxury of wizards and nobles, and the power of Slytherin.

But Dumbledore still listened with gusto, even in a daze.

After stopping at Luke, Dumbledore came back to his senses after a while, and then looked at Luke with complicated eyes: "Your journey has been really exciting."

Luke smiled wryly: "It's brilliant? It's true. Although it's not what I want."

Luke himself still prefers to change the wizarding world in his own way.The establishment of the company is to promote more people to imitate the company.After all, with Jin Gallon as the driving force, there will definitely be many imitators.In this way, the soil is gently cultivated, and then after the movement of the United States and other countries is passed here, under his own leadership, he will carry out a self-reformation action led by some nobles and cut off some nobles.Then complete a top-down reform.

Nor did he wish he could do more.If someone can defeat himself with a change from the bottom up, he might also be quite emotional.

And according to his path, there is actually a considerable possibility of getting through.After all, there are already signs of the rise of new nobles in the wizarding world, and all Luke has to do is push and guide.

So in fact, Luke doesn't need to go through so much of himself.But...he also knew that in the wizarding world, that road might be able to go through, but he might encounter some weird obstacles.

Therefore, the improvement of strength and special grants are still unavoidable.

But it's been through so much now.Rather than changing the existing order, Luke's understanding of the past and reality of the wizarding world is getting deeper and deeper.It can only be said that it is passively moving towards the essence of magic.

After a moment of silence, Luke asked Dumbledore, "Did anything new happen during the days I was away?"

After tidying up for a while, Dumbledore also told Luke some things that happened after Luke left.

"In other words, is Jenkins still showing off?"

Luke looked at Dumbledore with a serious expression: "But you just

It was found out that he was not Jenkins, and the specific identity was completely unknown? "

Dumbledore nodded: "That's true. The origin is very mysterious, and I can't find too many signs. But it's no surprise that the other party is coming for you."

Luke felt a bit of a toothache.

"Do you know what power the other party is from? Or have you offended someone?"

Dumbledore looked at Luke with a tangled and painful expression, and asked curiously.

"No, I don't know at all. Too many..."

Luke said helplessly.And these words made Dumbledore fall into silence.

"Anyway, just try it out yourself."

After speaking, Dumbledore was about to get up and leave.

Luke didn't mean to send him off, he yawned again, and then said: "Remember what I said, Dumbledore, don't touch that tree. If you really want to touch it, come to me, I'll come Help you find a way. But don't touch yourself. Never."

"I wasn't even interested."

Dumbledore didn't look back: "Whether it's immortality or rejuvenation, it doesn't have much temptation for me."

Luke curled his lips and looked at the back of the other party leaving: "It's best."

But Luke also knew that Dumbledore must be.That said, it's just for an extra layer of protection.

No one dares to say that he has a thorough understanding of someone.

After all, people always change.
