Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

"Okay." Luna said, raising her hand in the air, and then her head "connected" her neck out of thin air.Zoe looked at the hat in her hand, it was obvious that such an effect would appear, which was the result of this prop.

"Where did you get it?" Zoe asked curiously."This is a headless hat, a new prank item from the Weasley brothers." Luna handed the hat to Zoe. "Would you like to try it?" Zoe took the hat, but didn't put it on her head."This idea is very interesting. It's a kind of partial invisibility. Is the triggering method in contact with the medium? It's a bit like an invisible cloak." She reached into the concave surface of the hat, and as soon as she touched the hat, most of her hand disappeared.

"Are they still on sale?" Zoe played happily for a while."There are a lot of them, they are all very interesting props." Luna told her about nosebleed nougat and canary biscuits."I thought those two people had no merit at all except that they were good at running people." Zoe had a very bad impression of the brothers. "Plus those weird ideas, it almost evolved from Copper Nut to Silver Sike. "

********

Early the next morning, the atmosphere at Hogwarts suddenly became precipitous. The reason was that the front page headline of the Daily Prophet published a news about the ten Death Eaters who escaped from Azkaban.It also includes the most evil Death Eaters who have committed numerous crimes, including Antonin Dolohov, the Lestranges, and Barty Crouch Jr., who was recently taken into custody.

Before that, with the exception of Sirius, whose crimes have now been eliminated, Azkaban was hailed by the entire wizarding world as an "inescapable prison". Azkaban was given this name not because it was built on an isolated island. It's not because there are some weird and vicious institutions there, and the reason why no wizard can escape from it, 90% of the credit should be attributed to the dementors guarding there.

And now, a total of ten Death Eaters escaped.Zoe glanced at Umbridge, who was eating at the staff’s table. He really wanted to know how these "peace defenders" still have to whitewash their peace. Apart from blaming all the blame on Peter Pettigrew, don’t they plan to Do other actions?

The other professors were not relaxed, they talked in low voices, and there was not much to see from Dumbledore's face, but Zoe knew he was definitely thinking about strategy.Those students who had the habit of reading newspapers didn't look pretty, and Cedric got up and left the auditorium.

The coin in his pocket heated slightly, and Zoe took it out of his pocket naturally. The number on the edge of the coin showed the time of the next meeting, which happened to be tomorrow night.As long as the number on the coin in Harry's hand is changed, these counterfeit coins that have been cursed with change will also be changed to keep secret and remind the assembly time.

No matter what it means for these Death Eaters to escape from prison at this point in time, it will definitely not be a good thing for those who are determined to fight with them. Voldemort's minions have made him stronger, maybe he will start to act. , Because now he can not only hide in the shadows.

What makes Zoe more upset is the dementor's indulgence.These monsters are not simply dead souls. Although weird and distorted, they do have their own desires. They long for the sound of human souls and emotions. They can be said to be Voldemort's natural allies. If those Death Eaters use these Negotiating with the dementors for the conditions, then it is not surprising that they can successfully escape from prison with their weak bodies.

Zoe thought of the crazy woman she met in Azkaban who had an unusual attachment to Max and Voldemort, and she even wanted to kill her just because of Zoe's face.In the eyes of this kind of person, there are only those goals she clings to, and she will sacrifice everything around her in order to achieve the goal.Her name is also one of them.

Although I have never believed that war will happen in the distant future, just a piece of news can tear all the falsehoods of the past six months, exposing dark, oppressive, and gradually approaching clouds.

And what role will she play in this war?Maybe even Zoe doesn't know it herself.

Chapter Eighty Nine

Perhaps because of the sense of crisis brought about by the ten escaped Death Eaters, the first DA meeting of the new semester not only arrived on time, but no one complained about repeated practice of spells, even if Harry let them spend it. Almost half of the time is spent reviewing the spells learned last semester instead of learning new spells, and no one is lazy.

The last thing they reviewed was the coma spell, and when the last person got up from the mat and shook his groggy head, Harry blew the whistle and gathered everyone together.He first praised the practice of a few sentences, and after the members' attention was able to get rid of the influence of the coma spell, he spoke.

"I think it's time." He glanced at Hermione who was standing on the side, and she looked at this side expectantly.Almost half a year after giving orders, Harry is now accustomed to speaking loudly in front of people, "I said at the rally before Christmas, this semester we will learn some new spells. The results of the last semester each of you They are all well mastered. There is still a little time left. Today we start to learn the Patronus Mantra."

Ignoring the excited whispers of the members, Harry raised his hand."First of all, please put away your wands." These words caused a brief commotion, and Harry once again ignored the dissatisfaction and said firmly, "There is not enough time tonight. Let's use this time to practice the patron saint spell. Spell."

"Hushen and guard." He deliberately slowed down the syllable chanted, and after repeating it twice, he confirmed that everyone understood the correct pronunciation.

He asked the members to read it by themselves, and there was one after another "Calling God to Protect" in the room. Many people made a mistake when reading it, but when they wanted to correct the reading, they found that it was not an easy task.

"Read slowly first, and then speed up when you are familiar." Harry had made similar jokes when he was learning the Patronus Mantra with Professor Lupin before. He knew that beginners might face illegible words or misreading. Syllables and other conditions, if you can’t even read the spell, let alone use it.

Until the end of this rally, not everyone was able to straighten out the pronunciation of calling God's guard.As long as the majority of people slow down, they will be able to pronounce "Hushen Guardian" clearly, but once they speed up, they will inevitably suffer from biting and eating.

However, the enthusiasm for learning has become unprecedentedly high. Even when I leave the room of responsiveness, I can hear many people still chanting words and obviously plan to continue practicing.

"Wait, Siegel." He called Zoe, who was about to leave. "Let's discuss whether to prepare props."

"Props?" Zoe looked at him weirdly, "Dementors are the best props for learning the patron saint spell. Are you planning to invite one of them from Azkaban to dance with us? ?"

Harry scratched his hair: "Uh, then we can use Bogut instead."

"That's not okay, Potter." Zoe sighed. "Have you forgotten that Bogut will appear different things when facing different people? They can't be afraid of Dementors." Harry I Embarrassment, he did forget this when he said this, only because his own Bogut would become a dementor.

"You don't need to prepare extra items." Zoe thought for a while. "We just need to tell them the key points of the patron saint curse. Even if there is no threat from the dementor, you can learn it. I learned that before. ."

"If it hadn't been for Hermione to tell me, I wouldn't know that you would have a patron saint." Harry said with a smile, "Did you also learn from Professor Lupin? Although I had never seen you with him."

"No, I learned it from Professor Snape." Zoe said."Snape?!" Harry exclaimed."Why did you start yelling suddenly?" Zoe frowned and stepped back.

"Isn't he a Death Eater?" Harry's eyes widened in disbelief. "Will he also guardian curse? A former Death Eater?"

"Of course he will be a guardian curse." Zoe's tone was already faintly irritated, but he was restrained. Harry did not hear it. "You can't think that Professor Snape is indispensable just because you are biased. The rescue black wizard."

"You just don't know how annoying he is. Every time he goes to potions class, he must deliberately devalue and make things difficult for me, deduct Gryffindor's score without any problems, and always favor Slytherin." Harry complained. Said, "Why do you have to let this old bat teach me Occlumency? I went crazy last night."

"Snape told me that you also learned Occlumency with him before." Zoe nodded, confirming his statement.

"Want me to tell you some tricks, Potter?" Zoe asked. Seeing that the boy did not deny, she thought for a while. "It is important to control your emotions. Even if you are angry or sad, It shouldn’t get out of control. Unfettered emotions are easily perceivable and invaded, and you have to try to sink them.”

"But I can't control it. As long as I see Snape, I can't be calm at all." Harry said irritably, "Don't say throw them away, just have to endure not rushing over and hitting him. I have tried my best on my nose."

"That means you haven't worked hard enough." Zoe's voice was cold."Why do you speak the same way as Snape!" Harry looked at her dissatisfied.

"Do you think I will comfort you, "It's well done"? Stop teasing, Potter." Zoe said seriously, "Don't let your personal emotions interfere with Occlumency learning, don't get angry. You have so many complaints. Why not use the time spent in a daze to practice controlling your own brain? You told everyone in class that you can only be familiar with the use of that mantra through repeated practice. Then I can only respond to you with these words."

"Besides, you attacked my teacher in front of me, Professor Snape's student, and wish I could treat you gently?" Zoe was very dissatisfied. "I don't expect you to see how he is good. On the one hand, because this is a contradiction between you, it has nothing to do with me. But if you really want to learn Occlumency for a little bit, then stop complaining and practice."

"The problem is that as long as I see Snape's face, I will get angry!" Harry was a little angry when he was taught by Zoe, and shouted loudly, "If someone were to teach me from the beginning, this would not happen. situation!"

"I doubt what you said." Zoe raised an eyebrow. "You mean that as long as someone else teaches you, you can learn it quickly?"

"At least I would rather look at other people's faces and study calmly than I didn't make progress under Snape." Harry said confidently, holding his arms.

"Okay, then I will teach you." Zoe said every word."You teach me?" Harry looked at her dumbfounded.

"Well, I'm learning Occidental Mind. Although I can't compare with the professor, I can also cooperate with you to practice Occlumency." Zoe pointed to himself, "And I can also share the experience of Occlumency with you." Seeing Harry's eyes didn't believe she could do it, she shook her wand in demonstration, "We can also try the effect last time."

Harry flinched a bit when he remembered the experience last night. It was difficult for him to compare whether it was the pain that Snape saw in his heart or the embarrassment that Zoe saw in his heart which was more unpleasant.

But he was stared at by Zoe with contempt, and he was filled with anger, unable to say rejection or agree.

Of course Zoe could see his resistance: "Whatever you want, I am not interested in your privacy. I usually have my own business to be busy. I don't have so much time to take care of your nosy. If it wasn't because Hermione was worried about you, There may not be such a proposal."

"Just because of Hermione?" Harry asked.

"And I hope you can respect Professor Snape. You should call him a professor instead of by his first name. If you finally make up your mind to ask me to help you, then you must call him Snape. Professor Pu. I don’t know how deep your contradictions are, but if you don’t really know what kind of person he is, you shouldn’t decide what kind of person he is.” Zoe finished unceremoniously. Say goodbye to Harry.These last words were left with Harry, who was dumbfounded.

Chapter 90 Meditation Basin (Part 1)

"Look at what I saw? An incredible miracle." Snape's plain tone also fluctuated a bit. He looked at Harry as if looking at a rare and exotic animal, "Are you directly Change your mind, Potter? Or did you accidentally fall and bump your head?"

"Neither, Professor." Harry gritted his teeth and spit out the last two words, slashing the man in front of him again and again, especially the mouth that could never spit out good things. Harry wanted to use scissors It smashed.

"Potter, I reminded you not to relax your control over your emotions." Snape said quietly, "and don't think about messy things in front of others."

After Snape finished speaking, there was no way to tell from his facial expression whether he was angry or not, and Harry lowered his head, because gaze is an important factor for panic."It's a good thing that you are willing to fill up the holes in your ears, Potter. That way, what I say won't slip away like air." Snape said.

"You only have these two sentences?" Harry looked at him defiantly. "I can resist your panic in less than two months."

"First, it's not something to be proud of to be able to resist two or three times in five times. You must be able to resist four or five times to qualify; second, what are you complacent about? You are able to resist because I have never tried my best. I have been merciful to you." Snape's tone seemed as if Harry's efforts were not worth mentioning, but before Harry broke out, his next question calmed Harry.

"Do you still have those dreams now? Did you use Occlumency while sleeping?" Snape stared into Harry's eyes.

"No. I didn't dream of those strange things anymore." Harry paid close attention to every detail of Snape, for fear that he would reveal his lies.He did practice Occlumency under Zoe's strict supervision, and it had some effects, but he had never given up on a possibility that Harry had noticed when Sirius enlightened him.

Since he can connect Voldemort's thoughts, why not let him steal information?He can even directly learn about Voldemort's actions and emotions. Compared with other members of the Order of the Phoenix, he can provide Dumbledore with unique information.If he closes his brain like this, this rare path will be cut off.
