Chapter 76 Departure for Hogwarts! I just licked it, the failure of the platform is not my fault! At this point, Charles was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing out loud. "You are dark wizards, you think I am extreme?" When this topic was mentioned, a group of dark wizards beat their chests and expressed deep regret. "How can there be so many bad guys who want to be dark wizards?" "We have no other choice. We can't survive through normal channels, so we have to make a living as dark wizards." "Oh, I regret not studying hard. If I could get an excellent grade in the test, maybe I wouldn't be in this situation now." "If there is a time-travel potion that can go back to the past, I will definitely slap myself. Wandering around at night, wandering around at night, all I do every day is wandering around at night, reading a few more books is like taking your life, you deserve to be a dark wizard now, and be snatched away like a quail by an eleven-year-old wizard!" The dark wizards complained for a long time, and then it was the old wizard who provided Charles with a clue. "Lord Ciel, although we cannot produce the information you mentioned, we know where this knowledge is most likely to be found."
"If it's not there, then there are probably not many places in the entire wizarding world where you can find this knowledge." After leaving Knockturn Alley, Charles returned to the Leaky Cauldron. There was a strange look in his eyes. Whether it was the clues about Dementors, basilisks, three-headed dogs, etc. mentioned by the clerk at Flourish and Blotts, or the clues about soul magic related materials mentioned by the dark wizards in Knockturn Alley, they all pointed to one place. That's the Restricted Section of Hogwarts! "It's really strange. When they were little wizards, they had plenty of opportunities to learn this knowledge, but they ignored it and were obsessed with having fun." “That knowledge is sitting on the shelf, but few people are interested in it.” “When I finally began to suffer the beatings of the wizarding world and realized the importance of knowledge and ability, it was impossible for me to return to Hogwarts to learn those advanced knowledge.” "Unless you become a professor at Hogwarts..." "Speaking of which, Hogwarts professors are generally very strong, and the position of Hogwarts professor is so popular, so perhaps this is also a factor." Charles' eyes were burning. "Raising Dementors and Basilisks, developing some side businesses, eating Horcruxes, eating Philosopher's Stones, and collecting all kinds of magic materials I need..." "It seems that all of this cannot be avoided without Hogwarts." "It is worthy of being the highest temple of dark magic in the eyes of the dark wizards in Knockturn Alley!" Ciel glanced at the calendar. After all this time, there are only two or three days left before the start of school at Hogwarts. Charles didn't plan to make any more trouble these few days. Apart from packing dozens of boxes of snacks from the various shops in Diagon Alley so that he could nibble on them when he was bored, the thing Charles did most was planning for his future after going to Hogwarts. "If I remember correctly, there are quite a few places in Hogwarts where we can do breeding."
"The secret room can be used to breed basilisks. That place can allow a thousand-year-old basilisk to move freely, and it should be no problem to raise dozens of small basilisks." "There are already a group of giant acromantula in the Forbidden Forest, but Hagrid lets them run free. If we raise them professionally, we can expand the scale a lot." "In addition to the group of giant acromantic spiders, the vastness of the Forbidden Forest can also support many other magical animals." "By the way, if we can make a passage between the Chamber of Secrets and the Forbidden Forest, we can save money on feeding the basilisk and just feed it with the Acromantula." "Feed all those Acromantulas that are not active in producing venom to the basilisk!" "There's also the Room of Requirement. You can't raise animals here, and you can't conjure up food, but you can build a few rooms with constant temperature and humidity, and grow some vegetables in them." "Things like biting kale, devil's snare, mandrake, etc., whether you eat them alone or use them to make potions, they are all good." "As for their fertilizer, just use basilisk and acromantula feces. It doesn't cost a dime more." "Oh, and there is also the Black Lake. We can do aquaculture in the Black Lake." "If we build several breeding bases, maybe the resources can be circulated internally, and we don't even have to spend money on feed. It's entirely possible to build a small ecological chain similar to the magic world!" Ciel's eyes lit up. "Develop breeding, and occasionally find a Horcrux, or a Philosopher's Stone..." “A fulfilling campus life!” Two days later, carrying a full suitcase and a plan that made use of every secret space in Hogwarts, Ciel left the Leaky Cauldron where he had lived for a long time and headed to King's Cross Station amid the crowds of people. …… While Charles was planning his life at Hogwarts, in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts, Dumbledore was also thinking about his next plans for the savior Harry Potter. "Harry Potter is of course a Gryffindor, so as a Gryffindor, it is normal for him to attend classes during the day and go out at night." "The Potters' Invisibility Cloak must be arranged for him." "Also, give Snape something to think about, and let him protect Harry Potter." "Let me think, what else..." "Oh yeah, Quidditch. Harry will definitely inherit James' Quidditch talent. He can be arranged to join the Quidditch team in his first year. This will also help him to be loved by Gryffindor..." "Also, in the first year of school, we also need to see what kind of character Harry Potter has. Tests are inevitable." Dumbledore paced back and forth, going over all the arrangements for Harry Potter in his mind. Then, his eyes fell on the list of this year's freshmen, wondering who Harry Potter should be surrounded by. "Ron Weasley." This candidate was first confirmed by Dumbledore. After all, the Weasley family belongs to Dumbledore's base, and the Weasleys are both core members of the Order of the Phoenix, so Ron Weasley must be by Harry Potter's side. As for the next candidate, Dumbledore considered it again and again and chose Hermione Granger. "Having a Muggle-born friend around can ensure that Harry Potter is not poisoned by the bloodline theory, and naturally stand on the opposite side of those wizards who advocate the bloodline theory."
"The other little witch also has qualities that the boys don't have. It is said that this Miss Granger is also a top student, which is even better." After circling Hermione Granger's name, Dumbledore's finger moved to another name. "Ciel Evans, this may be the most talented student Hogwarts has had in all these years." "I just feel that if it's just Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Harry Potter's closest friends still lack a character with strong strength who can provide combat power at critical moments." "Char will be able to make up for this and become the cornerstone of the team's stability." "The most important thing is that, through McGonagall's observation at Ollivander's Wand Shop, Ciel is born with a hatred of evil and is incompatible with darkness. His divine magic can be said to be the nemesis of darkness." "Also, his gluttonous nature is very similar to that of a Hufflepuff. Badgers are generally harmless to humans and animals, and they won't steal the limelight from Harry Potter..." The more Dumbledore thought about it, the more he thought this arrangement was brilliant. Two days later, when it was time for Hogwarts to start school, Dumbledore looked at the clock with anticipation in his eyes. "According to the time, some of the children I arranged should be meeting at Platform 9 3/4." At this moment, an owl suddenly flapped its wings and hit the window of the principal's office. After Dumbledore opened the window, a letter was thrown in. As soon as Dumbledore opened the letter, he suddenly stood up, his face full of surprise. "what?" "Platform nine and three quarters suddenly stopped working, and the little wizards and their parents are about to block King's Cross Station?!" "How is this possible? I checked Platform 9 3/4 before, and there is no problem with the magic there!" At the same time, on the Hogwarts Express, where most of the carriages were empty, Ciel sat alone in a carriage with a guilty look on his face. "I just couldn't help but lick Platform Nine and Three Quarters and got some deduction points. I'm used to it, so I only licked it once, not more than once!" "This platform failure shouldn't be blamed on me, right?" (End of this chapter)
