424 Chicken Soup for the Soul
This is an actor: Well, today's fun-watching activity ends here.
After getting the materials for constructing the magic circle, Gerald turned off the live broadcast and took Harry and others back to Hogwarts Castle.
Book Artist: No, let me see Ron's terrified look again! That was such a famous scene, hahaha!
Soul Society's villain: I think he was so scared he almost lost control of his bladder. What a wicked man, Anran.
Curly: Humph, he deserves it. Back when we were doubting our president, it was this little brat who was the most enthusiastic.
Hatchet Girl: Indeed, he was the one who basically took the lead in these things.
Skirt-lifting maniac: He is still a child, please increase the intensity!
Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: My dear is not like us; he wouldn't resort to such acts of personal revenge. His words were actually meant to teach them not to trust anyone easily.
Fairy Chi Lian: But this kind of education seems to have the opposite effect, like that little girl Hermione. She looked at Master An with such admiration that it was almost overflowing.
Lin Fengjiao: I’m afraid that even if the group leader is the real heir, they won’t believe it.
Shark-Faced Guy: It's a shame, An Ran-san really isn't the heir. And in his eyes, even Slytherins are just scum.
Lazy Kitten: That old man is definitely not a good person! Those who advocate for bloodline theory are usually either stupid or evil. If purebloods are really better than half-bloods, why are the nobles in the British wizarding world becoming increasingly inferior? Look at Malfoy, he can't even compare to Hermione, a Muggle-born little wizard!
Skull Island Handsome Guy: I remember that Voldemort himself seemed to be a mixed-blood?
Book Artist: Yes, he is mixed-race! But as a mixed-race person, he always emphasizes the supremacy of bloodline, which is quite bizarre!
Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: Not surprising, that's his political slogan as a means of ruling. As long as he can deceive people, the rest doesn't matter.
Lazy Kitten: Disgusting, this stuff is really disgusting! It’s similar to the inspirational stories from my previous life. They sound healing, but they actually make me depressed!
Skirt-Lifting Maniac: No, I feel like chicken soup for the soul is far more deceptive than slogans like this. At least, half-blood wizards would resist and rebel against such slogans. Chicken soup for the soul is different; it has believers regardless of race or age.
Lin Fengjiao: Um, what is chicken soup for the soul?
This is an actor: Luck in life is earned through hard work. There is no such thing as something for nothing or a free lunch. As the saying goes, you reap what you sow.
Lazy Little Kitten: Phew, I’ve been thinking about it for a long time…Brother An Ran really speaks without thinking.
This is an actor: I remember this sentence clearly.
Book artist: I used to think these were golden sentences, but now they seem really misleading.
Curly: It is indeed very confusing. I still don’t know what’s wrong with this sentence!
Skirt-lifting maniac: Yin, you...
Fairy Chi Lian: First, what does it mean to work hard? Different people gain different things through hard work. Furthermore, is there really no such thing as something for nothing? Why don't those big landlords and capitalists need to work?
Foul-mouthed man: That's right! Why do we need to work, but capitalists don't? All they do every day is stare at girls' butts! Damn it, these guys deserve to die!
The illustrator: Deadpool, come on! You hate capitalists now, but if you had the chance, you'd become one too! You actually take it for granted.
Lin Fengjiao: If you don’t analyze it carefully, you will indeed think that this kind of chicken soup for the soul is very inspiring.
This is an actor: There's something even more inspiring, something I've said before. "Only those who endure the most difficult hardships can achieve greatness" is the most deceptive and deceptive statement. It's also a famous quote widely praised and embraced.
Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: Ah, this! I remember it very clearly. My dear asked me at the time, why do we need to think that people are superior to others?
Skirt-lifting maniac: Yeah, if you want to be the best, it means you have to step on others to get to the top. Then who would want to be stepped on by you? You don't want to be stepped on, but you want to step on others... How can you have the best of both worlds?
Lazy Kitten: Oh, I was also addicted to this kind of chicken soup. I was young and ignorant at the time, and now I feel ashamed!
The illustrator commented: "There's nothing to be ashamed of. Believing in chicken soup is better than believing in pure-blood supremacy from those idiot wizards. That argument is truly idiotic, and it's precisely because there are so many idiots in the wizarding world that Voldemort's arrogance is fueled."
Skirt-Lifting Maniac: Yeah, that's a really low-brow argument. By comparison, his senior, Grindelwald, is far superior. For the greater good, this is how the situation unfolds!
Red Snake Fairy: Yes. Although both involve ideological indoctrination and brainwashing... Grindelwald is indeed several times more powerful than Voldemort in terms of style.
Looking at the comparison between Grindelwald and Voldemort made by everyone in the group, Gerald smiled slightly and did not participate.
Objectively speaking, Grindelwald's ideals are indeed far superior to Voldemort's. If he truly follows his path, it will indeed bring profound changes to the wizarding world.
But his own lack of firmness in his ideals was the main factor that led to his failure.
Of course, his emotional entanglement with Dumbledore also played a role in this. Who can be truly cruel and ruthless when facing the one they love?
Thinking this in his mind, Jellal turned and walked towards his dormitory.
"Oh my God!" Ron exclaimed as he watched the departing figure. "It's a miracle we didn't get any points deducted!"
"That's because Professor Ziklein didn't want to punish us." Hermione sighed and said, "He's such a gentle man, but we did this."
What he did to the Fire Lizard was not gentle, was it?
Ron and Harry looked at each other, both having the same thought in their minds. Of course, in this situation, they tacitly agreed not to say it out loud.
Harry smiled awkwardly and changed the subject, "But we did a good thing. Now we can be sure that Professor Ziklaine is not the heir of Slytherin. I feel that he doesn't even need to be the heir of Slytherin. I'm afraid he will be no less than a Slytherin in the future."
"Indeed, it's too strong!" Ron nodded in agreement and said, "I bet even Professor Dumbledore wouldn't have it that easy when dealing with that Fire Lizard!"
"So, is Malfoy really more likely?" Harry stroked his chin and thought.
425 Hermione Almost Cried
"Right!" Ron nodded in agreement. "Malfoy is the biggest suspect. He's not a good guy to begin with."
"But we have no evidence, so we can't just speculate." Although Hermione also hated Malfoy, especially since he had insulted her, she still managed to remain rational and restrained, and looked at the problem more objectively.
"Damn, there's no way this guy would leave any evidence!" Ron grabbed his hair, feeling distressed.
"Maybe... we need Polyjuice Potion." Hermione thought for a moment and suggested.
"Polyjuice Potion?"
"what is that?"
Ron and Harry looked at each other blankly. They were obviously not fond of reading, especially books about potions.
"It's a prepared potion!" Hermione sighed helplessly and said, "It's similar to Transfiguration. After drinking it, it can turn us into another person."
"Oh my god! That's cool!"
"If we had this potion, we could approach Malfoy openly!"
Ron and Harry both looked delighted and cheered loudly.
"But we don't have the formula." Hermione shook her head and said helplessly, "It's also difficult to get the formula."
Polyjuice Potion is a powerful potion, classified as a forbidden item in the library. To obtain it, one needs the professors' approval. And the professors aren't fools; there's no way they'd be fooled.
"Well, now we're back to square one." Harry sighed in frustration and said, "After all this talk, there's been no substantial progress."
"Perhaps, we can ask Professor Ziklein for help." Hermione said suddenly.
"Do you have an idea?" Ron looked at her hopefully.
"I'll go help him sort out the materials for the magic circle at seven o'clock in the evening." Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "I can try to see if I can ask for his help."
"Then it's up to you!"
The sky gradually darkened and the lights in Hogwarts castle began to light up.
Hermione, holding a notebook, came to Gerald's dormitory door and knocked on it.
Squeak.
Soon, the door slowly opened.
Hermione was about to ask the young professor a question with a delighted look on her face, but when she opened her mouth she was suddenly stunned. The person who opened the door for her was not Gerard as she expected, but a girl with golden hair.
The girl had very pale skin and a strange wooden cork hanging around her neck. Her wand was held behind her ear, tied up with a few strands of hair like a bridle.
"You are……"
"Luna Lovegood," the blonde girl replied in a disembodied voice, "Ziklein's assistant, helping him sort out the magical variables in the magic circle."
Help, assistant?
Hermione was stunned, as if struck by lightning. Is this the new assistant? Professor Ziklein, don't you need me anymore?
As she thought this, Hermione's eyes became visibly lost. Besides the loss, there was also an inexplicable bitterness.
"Is Miss Hermione here?" Just then, Gerald's voice slowly rang out. "Let her in. Luna, you can go back first. You've worked hard today."
"It's okay, Ziklaine." Luna winked at the room and whispered, "I like the job you gave me." She moved aside and brushed past Hermione, heading towards the Ravenclaw common room.
Hermione's expression was still a bit dazed, as if she hadn't recovered from her job loss. She walked heavily into Gerard's bedroom, feeling as if she were filled with lead, and closed the door.
"You seem to be worried about something?" Gerald turned his head to look at her and asked.
"No, it's okay." Hermione shook her head and said, "I know it's my own fault, Professor Ziklein. My behavior today disappointed you. I can understand why you made such a decision..." As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Huh?" Gerard was stunned and asked in confusion: "What decision are you talking about?"
"You... aren't you going to change your assistant?" Hermione wiped her eyes and forced herself to suppress the urge to burst into tears.
She's already an adult, she can't cry! She absolutely can't cry!
"Where did you hear I was changing my assistant?" Jellal handed her a napkin with a rather helpless expression and said, "Oh, I think I understand. Are you talking about Luna?"
Hermione took the napkin and nodded gently without saying anything. She didn't use the napkin to wipe her tears, but secretly put the napkin in her pocket.
This is the napkin Professor Ziklein gave you. Please keep it well.
"First, you have to understand that constructing a magic circle is a massive undertaking." Jellal noticed her small movements but didn't comment. "It involves many detailed tasks, and it's more than just the two of us can accomplish. Luna is well-versed in magical variables, so she'd be a suitable assistant."
"So, you don't plan to exclude me?" Hermione asked cautiously.
"Not really. You're a great assistant." Gerald smiled and took out his own magic circle diagram. "You helped find these materials. The credit belongs to you."
"I'm just doing what I can." Hermione blushed a little and whispered. "But what does the R system mean?"
"You can think of the R system here as rebirth," Gerard explained with a smile. "Once this R system is complete, perhaps it can actually bring people back to life."
"Resurrection?" Hermione was stunned, her face full of astonishment. "You mean, the main function of your magic circle is to bring people back to life? Oh my God, is this true?"
"Just maybe." Gerard nodded slightly and said, "It's just a concept, an idea. As for whether it can succeed... it still needs to be tested through practice."
"So, Professor Ziklein has someone he really wants to resurrect, right?" Hermione seemed to have thought of something and asked softly, "That person must be very important to you, right?"
The little witch didn't know what she was thinking about, and her expression became a little sentimental. Perhaps she had already imagined a very wonderful family ethics story in her mind.
"I guess so." Gerard replied vaguely, and the two began today's magic circle construction simulation.
426 Traitor Tony Stark
Foul-mouthed Man: [Picture] Did you see that? Did you see that? Even Tony has started embroidering the red flag under my influence. What else do you have to say?
The photo Deadpool posted is indeed a bust of Tony Stark, holding a red flag with a hammer and sickle embroidered on it.
Such a picture looks ridiculous and gives people a very unreal feeling.
Book artist: Is this photoshopped?
Eriri instinctively refused to believe it. How could Tony, a capitalist, possibly believe in the Red Revolution? He was revolutionizing himself. What a joke!
Foul-mouthed man in a suit: Fuck! Fuck, uncle, do I really look like someone without any moral integrity or bottom line?
Hatchet Girl: To be honest, it does look like it. But I believe you didn't photoshop it, because pictures that can be posted in a group chat can't be photoshopped.
Skirt-Up Maniac: So, Tony has really joined our revolutionary team?
Foul-mouthed man: Of course! This is all thanks to me, uncle. I used my love to influence him!
Curly: "Conquered him with love?" You might as well say I conquered him with my butt. That would be more believable.
Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: Using love to persuade people is definitely nonsense. The key reason is that Tony himself has this awareness. Compared with the evil capitalist thinking, the concept of revolution is more likely to make people live a good life.
Book artist: I think so too. It’s mainly because Tony himself has this awareness.
Foul-mouthed man: What do you mean? Damn it, are you completely denying my efforts and influence?
Skull Island Handsome Guy: It’s not that we deny your achievements, but everyone thinks that people like you can never be the main factor in changing other people’s minds.
Curly: In short, you don’t deserve it. Do you understand what I mean?
Foul-mouthed man: Fuck, uncle, I am not a piece of shit like you! You can't treat others as shit just because you are a piece of shit!
Curly-haired boy: You bastard, who are you calling shit? Gin-san, I'm such a brilliant and handsome hero, and you dare call me shit? Apologize to all of Gin-san's fans!
Foul-mouthed man in a suit: Haha, are you trying to make me die of laughter so you can inherit my prison life? You're the male lead, but does that mean I'm not the male lead? And you have millions of fans? My fans can stretch from Earth to Mars!
