Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The Philosopher's Stone Belongs to You
Lynn took back his dampening magic fire with some regret.
But at this moment, another bright flame rose up.
"Who?!"
Lynn showed a vigilant look on his face. This flame was not released by him.
However, Lynn and Irina immediately let down their guard after seeing the figure appearing in the flame.
"Professor Dumbledore!"
Lynn and Irina saluted at the same time.
On Professor Dumbledore's shoulder, a phoenix was seen, and Professor Dumbledore looked at the two with a little smile.
"If I'm not mistaken, it was you who protected the Philosopher's Stone from Quirrell, or Voldemort, right?" Professor Dumbledore gently waved his wand, and Quirrell's body disappeared, and the Mirror of Erised turned into a small mirror under the powerful shrinking spell and was collected by Professor Dumbledore.
Lynn nodded slightly and said, "Yes, but unfortunately our magic level is not enough, and Voldemort still escaped."
"Don't underestimate yourself, kid," Professor Dumbledore came to Lynn and patted Lynn's shoulder, "I'm afraid even I can't keep two-thirds of Voldemort's soul."
Lynn was not surprised by Professor Dumbledore's words. He looked at Dumbledore calmly: "It seems that you have been here for a long time?"
Professor Dumbledore smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, I just arrived when Quirrell died."
Lynn would not believe his lies, but he nodded in conviction on the surface.
At this time, Professor Dumbledore looked at Irina: "Miss Lowell, you did a good job. You are also worthy of praise for protecting your companions from Voldemort!"
Irina leaned forward slightly: "Thank you for the compliment, Professor."
Irina also did not believe what Dumbledore said about her just arriving. In her opinion, he might have been watching here when she came to this room.
"Very good," Dumbledore said, "Take your friends and return to the castle together! Hold my hand!"
Lynn did not hesitate and put his right hand on Dumbledore's shoulder.
And Irina first carried the unconscious Hermione behind her, then dragged Harry up with one hand, and finally stretched out her other hand to hold Dumbledore's left hand.
Tsk~
Dumbledore smiled and blinked, and the phoenix Fawkes cried, and a flame swept up.
The next moment, everyone returned to Hogwarts Castle.
Ron had been waiting here for a long time.
Seeing Harry and Hermione unconscious, Ron exclaimed and tried to wake them up, but was stopped by Dumbledore.
"Ms. Lowell, Mr. Weasley, I think you should send your friends to the school hospital now, right?"
Dumbledore blinked his blue eyes behind his half-moon glasses and said to Irina and Ron.
Hearing this, Irina and Ron looked at each other, Irina picked up Hermione, and Ron carried Harry on his back, and the two went towards the school hospital.
"Mr. Rowle, let's talk?!"
Looking at the direction where Irina and others left, Dumbledore smiled, then looked at Lynn and asked.
Lynn didn't know what the other party was thinking, but he nodded and said, "Okay."
So, Lynn followed Dumbledore to the outside of the principal's office in the tower.
"Cockroach pile!"
The headmaster's office was guarded by a huge stone beast. After hearing Dumbledore's correct password, it made way.
Behind the stone beast was an automatic spiral staircase. At the top of the staircase was the door of the office. It was a shiny oak door with a brass door knocker in the shape of a lion's body and eagle's head.
After entering the headmaster's office, Lynn could see that the walls of this spacious and beautiful round room were covered with portraits of past headmasters. The headmasters in these portraits usually dozed off in their own frames, and occasionally visited other frames. On Dumbledore's desk, Lynn could also see the sorting hat.
Tsk~
After arriving at the office, the phoenix Fawkes chirped excitedly and flew to the shelf that belonged to it.
"What would you like to drink, coffee or black tea?" Professor Dumbledore sat down and looked at Lynn with a smile.
Lynn said softly, "Black tea."
After getting Dumbledore's permission, Lynn also sat down and sat face to face with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore waved his wand, and a teapot automatically flew up and poured steaming hot black tea into the teacup, and the teacup filled with black tea floated up and came to Lynn.
Lynn took a sip of the black tea, and then he remembered something and took out a blood-red stone from his pocket.
"Professor, your Philosopher's Stone."
Lynn put the Philosopher's Stone on the table in front of Dumbledore and said so.
Although the powerful power brought to him by the Philosopher's Stone made him a little unforgettable, he understood that the power brought by the Philosopher's Stone was only temporary after all.
If his own strength could not keep up, then if he used magic that far exceeded his body's ability to bear for a long time, I am afraid that the scrapped alchemical gloves would be his end!
Seeing that Lynn had no desire for this power, Dumbledore could not help but smile sincerely.
However, what surprised Lynn was that Dumbledore did not reach out to take the Philosopher's Stone, but pushed the Philosopher's Stone back and pushed it in front of Lynn.
"Professor, what are you doing?"
Lynn looked at Professor Dumbledore in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
If Dumbledore wanted to test himself, then he had already passed the test by handing over the Philosopher's Stone just now, right?!
But what did Dumbledore mean by pushing the Philosopher's Stone back?!
Looking at Lynn's puzzled eyes, Dumbledore's blue eyes flashed and said, "I think this Philosopher's Stone belongs to you!"
Hearing this, Lynn was a little incredible.
According to the plot in the original book, this Philosopher's Stone will be destroyed by Dumbledore after completing the task of luring Voldemort out.
But what does Dumbledore mean by the Philosopher's Stone belonging to him?
Before Lynn asked, Dumbledore explained softly: "Originally, Nicolas planned to let me destroy the Philosopher's Stone after using it, because Nicolas and his wife have lived for more than 600 years, and they don't have too much attachment to this world, and can calmly face the great adventure of death."
Lynn nodded slightly, and what Dumbledore said was no different from what he knew.
Dumbledore continued: "But, last summer, Nicolas asked Wallison to tell me that after this incident, he hoped that I could give the Philosopher's Stone to you as a gift from an elder."
