Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying - Chapter 338
c338 Professor Baburin
The students in front of the classroom display cabinet did not notice that there was another person at the door. They were looking at the items on display curiously.
For example, the gemstone necklace placed in the third grid has a gold willow leaf strung with a pendant as big as an eye, with a circle of diamonds inlaid on it, and a clear ruby in the middle. After years of baptism, it still shines brightly, which is very special. Eye-catching.
Unfortunately, this gem necklace is covered by glass and cannot be obtained.
Near the bottom, there is an arc-shaped white cane with thin magic inscriptions engraved on it, embodying a mysterious aura.
Moreover, this cane was placed in such a big position without any protective measures.
Malfoy remembered that his father also had a cane, and subconsciously wanted to take it and have a look.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t touch it.”
A cold voice suddenly sounded behind him. Malfoy was startled and turned around quickly.
Standing behind him was a woman. She tied her fiery red hair loosely behind her head, wore a brown Holmburg felt hat, her skin was dazzlingly white, and a thin strip of hair hung on the side of her brown wizard robe. A golden chain with a golden pocket watch attached to the end.
This is a lady whose age cannot be discerned because she looks like she is in her early twenties, but her eyes and temperament make her look like someone of Professor McGonagall’s age.
The lady looked down at Malfoy and said coldly: “This bone is engraved with the magic text representing ‘evil’. The person who owns it will become terminally ill in a short time – class time is up, go and sit down.”
As soon as Malfoy turned his head, he saw that the other students had already dispersed and sat down. He quickly found an empty seat and sat down.
“I am Bathsheda Bablin, the professor of ancient magic texts.”
The red-haired lady opened her pocket watch, took a look at it, and said:
“It took you seven minutes and fifty-three seconds to enter the classroom today, and the one who solved the puzzle was Vader Gray, who arrived last. It took you thirty-seven seconds to solve the question I left.”
Professor Bablin looked at Wade and asked, “Do you know the origin of that sentence?”
“Yes, Professor.” Vader said: “It is said that Odin discovered runes on the World Tree, and the poet recorded his autobiography——
Sacrifice yourself to yourself, on a tree that no one knows about!
No bread to satisfy hunger, no drop of water to quench thirst.
I looked down and picked up runes,
Picking it up and shouting, it fell from the tree.
In addition, it is said in the poem——
Each word can be used to draw inferences, and these characters have profound meanings;
Characters are great and powerful, they are created by the God of Wisdom. ”
“very good.”
Professor Bablin nodded with satisfaction, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be raised slightly, but she was obviously very stingy in her smile, and there was no obvious change in her expression in the end.
“Vade Gray.”
“yes.”
“You are prohibited from solving the door’s puzzles from now on – that is the task of other students.”
Professor Bablin’s words made all the students grimace, while Hermione showed an expression of eagerness to try.
“There are several main types of magical words that have been passed down from ancient times to this day——”
Professor Bablin continued: “The oracle bones of the East, the seals of the Ganges Valley, the cuneiform of the Mesopotamian civilization, the hieroglyphs of Egypt, and the runes of this land – this is what we call ancient times. Magic text.”
“In my class, you will learn how to write, read and translate runes. As Vader said just now, these words represent magic and revelation from the gods, and possess mysterious power.”
“Wizards who can interpret and master runes will have higher magic power and wisdom.”
“But if you feel that the content of this class is difficult to understand, or you are unwilling to work hard to memorize the basic phonetic tables and icon sets, I advise you to give up this class as soon as possible to avoid wasting your and my time.”
“I only accept the smartest, hardest-working students!”
To be honest, the students of Wade’s class are different from those who usually choose randomly with their heads covered. They know the difficulty of ancient magic texts before choosing courses.
They dare to choose and are naturally very confident in their IQ. After hearing the professor’s words, the students’ faces were filled with eagerness to prove themselves.
Professor Bablin clicked with his wand. On the display cabinet, a palm-sized wooden board flipped over and flew to the middle. It instantly enlarged to half a person’s height, with a black symbol engraved on it.
Then, the symbol began to brighten, the color began to turn red as if a flame was burning, and the temperature in the classroom seemed to rise slightly by a few degrees.
“This is kenaz.” Professor Bablin said: “It symbolizes light, fire, and divine wisdom.”
“Also, it can mean kindness, strength, healing and warmth – why haven’t you written that down yet?”
Suddenly there was a sound in the classroom of the secretary turning over his notes.
“The meaning of an individual rune is complex. We need to basically determine the meaning based on its position and the words before and after it. Let’s look at a few examples…”
After Professor Bablin spent a short preface, he quickly entered the main text, without saying a word of nonsense, it was all dry information with dense knowledge points.
It was so hard that the students almost choked to death.
At first, some people were curious to see the wooden board showing the runes. Later, everyone just wrote hard and quickly wrote down a lot of notes on the paper.
Among all the people, only Vader seemed more calm.
After all, he had memorized all the Rune Dictionaries, and he already knew most of what Professor Bablin taught. He had used it countless times in practical applications, and he had no difficulty in understanding it.
Of course, this does not mean that the ancient magic text class is meaningless to him——
In the past, Vader relied on self-taught most of the ancient magic texts. Professor Murray also taught him some when teaching him alchemy, but they were all taught after using them and were not systematically sorted out. Naturally, there were omissions and one-sidedness.
Professor Bablin not only explained the content in the book in depth, but also expanded a lot of knowledge outside the book, which made Wade feel that he benefited a lot, and even had more ideas about alchemy and the use of magic spells.
But most of the other people in the classroom began to sweat on their foreheads, their faces turned pale, and their eyes became clearer and more confused the more they listened.
After finally getting through to the end of get out of class, Professor Bablin waved his wand, and a few lines of ancient magic text appeared on the blackboard.
“This is an ancient document. Translate it when you go back. This is your homework – don’t worry, it is very simple text and does not go beyond what we are talking about today.”
Professor Bablin waved his hand and asked all the boards to be returned to the display racks. Then he put away his wand and left with brisk steps.
After a while, a student in the classroom cried “Wow”.
