Chapter 74 Friendship Begins With One Transaction

Dumbledore followed Kane after visiting the magic tear manufacturing factory, and came to an underground lounge.

This place is called Sky Forest, and it is easy for people to have an illusion that they don't know when they will return to the surface.

Mimicking the natural scenery with a magic circle has reached the point where the fake ones are confusing the real ones.

It exists not only for enjoyment, but also as an ecological experimental garden.

This project existed in the previous life, and it was used as a technical reserve for the space satellite city. I have to say that Kane is still very ambitious, no matter in the previous life or in this life.

The two sat down in front of the natural and simple stone platform, and a little fairy flew over and offered clear and sweet honey water.

Kane smiled and answered Dumbledore's previous question about what he planned to implement at Hogwarts: "One year as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, this cuteness can continue to be sold, so that those pure-blood families and the Ministry of Magic will not play more. A lot of scheming."

A smile flashed across Dumbledore's eyes.

It is said that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts was cursed by Voldemort. In fact, it was more due to his influence behind the scenes.

This course is too sensitive. If you look at the plan Umbridge taught this course later, you will know that the Ministry of Magic, the pure-blood family, and wishing that Hogwarts would come out with scum incompetent in combat spells, so that they would Can be better controlled.

Therefore, the professors of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class changed every year, not only for the school trustees and the Ministry of Magic to see, but also for the apprentice wizards to learn a few real things.

Of course, Quirrell and Lockhart are special cases, the latter also deceived Dumbledore.

Kane said: "For some things, it is more appropriate to organize and operate from the perspective of students. I organize interest clubs, and I personally fund the purchase of safety gear for wizard apprentices. I regard it as a money-burning game to vent excess energy. Don't be afraid of being judged by others."

As he said that, Kane flipped his hand, and a magical star appeared in his palm, floating in a void.

"I'm still promoting this."

Dumbledore received the magic star that Kane handed over, and after a while, he discovered nearly ten characteristics and uses.

He said in a shocked voice: "This is the greatest invention of this century, a magical creation that can change the world of wizards."

"Thank you for your praise." Kane accepted the honor generously. He said, "Between black and white, there are colorful colors. I don't like chaos, but order. This is what contemporary wizards lack. , I will help you fill this loophole.”

As he spoke, he pointed to the magic star in Dumbledore's hand. "In my eyes, it is not a crutch, but a corrector, a habit, an ethos, and even though the current magic only allows wizards to come and go, it is still necessary to understand that we live in a colorful world, not just black and white. "

This is quite a double entendre. Dumbledore sighed: "Your ideals, your mind, are admirable."

"It's not that I'm good. It's that I lived in a glorious era in my previous life. The wizards of that era were wise and generous. I was just influenced by it. Otherwise, at my age, it would be impossible for me to have such a broad vision and cognition. "

He also said: "Besides, simulating the celestial phenomena and operating the way of the stars is a grand system. It is difficult to create a bright hall with one's own strength, and it takes a collective effort to achieve results. And as the host, how can I not benefit from it?" ?So this is actually a win-win project. Make cakes and eat cakes together, just like those projects of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce, black hemp does make the magic eyes rich, but for ordinary British wizards, it also brings them benefits."

Dumbledore nodded, feeling better about Kane again. He could feel Kane's arrogance, the arrogance in his bones. There is arrogance, but no arrogance. Be factual and honest.

This is very good, this kind of person rarely does those sneaky things and doesn't bother to do them.

As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black,

To behave like this is actually to lean towards the camp of justice, and seldom join forces with evil.

If so, going to 1853 to solve the puzzle is not a test of temperament, but a deepening of mutual friendship.

Friendships are all born together, carrying guns together and keeping secrets together, which can promote mutual intimacy. So Dumbledore said: "You mean to reach an agreement in the form of a transaction. I allow your beneficial operations in the school, and you help me solve the mystery of the demise of the Carret family. Is that so? ?”

Kane nodded.

"Okay, I think this is a good deal." Dumbledore said and stretched out his hand, and Kane also reached out to shake it. Things are settled.

Dumbledore smiled again and said, "I bought this magical star in advance, which is very interesting."

"That was originally a small gift for you, and I was afraid that you would not accept it. Welcome to join the Xinghai system! If you delve deeper, you will find that transforming magic power into the power of stars and assisting the power of life will form the so-called star power." Life can greatly delay the consumption of life force."

Dumbledore was moved. He is old, and often feels that his body is a bit overwhelmed, which is a typical feature of reduced vitality. And now, there are mature ways to alleviate this problem. Means he can do it for another few decades?

At this time, Kane said with a smile: "A few years ago, even I believed that my poor body would not survive the age of 9..."

There is no need to say anything more, Dumbledore already understands that 'Star Life' allows Kane to avoid the problem of exhaustion of life force caused by his childhood.

This is purely misleading. Kane used this to explain why he is in good health now. He didn't lie. As for how Dumbledore understood it, that's another story.

From Dumbledore's point of view, he did care about this information. The desire to control made him instinctively want to collect all the information about the people he cares about, and hope to get answers to every mystery. The more information he has, the more secure he will feel in his heart.

And people are always suspicious, and someone like him who has experienced wind and rain will not trust someone so easily.

He must study the magic star in private.

He is the chief wizard of the Wizengamot, and is hailed by many people as the number one white wizard of the contemporary era. He is confident and proud. If there is a pit in the magic star, he doesn't believe he can't detect it.

In fact, most people have online IQ most of the time, and what they are afraid of is being blinded by obsession (desire).

One of the things that makes Dumbledore more chic than Voldemort is that he can basically face aging and death calmly. The concept of life, once used to deal with Voldemort, is not so good for him.

What's interesting is that he could vaguely figure out Kane's intention of mentioning "star fate" to him. Not to bribe, coerce, or control, but to hope that wizards like him can live for a few more years, so that this world will not become too boring.

"It's really open-minded. People can't help looking forward to what kind of changes the British wizarding world will have in the future led by such a person!"

A pleasant and productive meeting.

Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall gladly accepted the invitation to have lunch together. The Shafik family’s appetite for food and details also allowed them to experience the enjoyment of a real rich man. Think about how they eat three meals a day. This grade is indeed quite enviable.

Seeing the start of the school day approaching, both Dumbledore and Kane had a lot of work to do, so the time travel was put on hold for the time being.

Dumbledore also explained this letter and briefly talked about the relevant progress. After the case was filed, there are still many details. The main two items of the group are travel through time and space and coordinate anchoring. Reach the intention, and then get ready to make the trip. After all, this is different from being traversed, and it is not a death squad.

Kane also felt that it would be more appropriate to complete the project after enrolling and all affairs were straightened out and on the right track. Anyway, he didn't go to Hogwarts mainly to study.

Although the Hogwarts Great Library has a rich collection of books, he has already passed the greedy age of wanting to be proficient in everything, and there is a huge difference between reading for erudition and studying, so the books there can't stand him. It's not like he was rushing to do his summer homework when he was a child. Those books can be digested slowly in seven years. Reasonable arrangements for study and life make every day rich and fulfilling. This is his plan.

However, the plan always fails to keep up with the changes. No, news came from the Ministry of Magic that Azkaban was robbed, and among the escaped prisoners was his cheap father Stanley...
