Chapter 872: Hogwarts Learning Panel, Chapter 378
The green branches were fuzzy, tinged with gold, watching over the wizards of Hogwarts through the ages.
Sien knew that Professor Sineipu had once studied exam questions beneath it, his brow furrowed, exactly the same as now.
"You are distracted..."
Now Professor Sineipu's sinister voice appeared.
"Sorry, Professor."
Sien immediately came back to his senses.
"Heh—"
Sineipu stared at him for a while, his expression unchanging.
"Control, Green. Unless you want to be burned to ashes by your own Fiendfyre like my few foolish students, you will control yourself at every moment, even when you are about to extinguish it at the very end..."
He said, walking down from the podium, approaching the young wizard who had been practicing the Fiendfyre spell for a long time and was already somewhat exhausted.
"Now..."
He stared at Sien,
"I am going to teach you how to resist the Imperius Curse; you had better remember every single word..."
Sien looked up upon hearing this and neatly put away the wand in his hand.
"Listen well—Dumbledore is not willing to let you come into contact with it—
But Green, accidents never pick a time, nor do they pick a person—
If you are willing to learn through more cruel methods—waiting for someone else to chant this curse at you, controlling you completely in their palm—that is fine.
But I do not agree."
After Sineipu finished speaking, he gripped the wand in his hand tightly,
"I am going to teach you to resist it, to oppose it—watch closely—"
Sineipu cast his gaze toward the living creatures in the display case and cast the Imperius Curse on them.
Sien saw that under the influence of the curse, those animals made the most abnormal movements one after another.
A mouse hopped around the cat three times and did not resist even when bitten by the cat;
a toad was imitating a squirrel, trying to climb the oak tree outside the window;
a venomous snake performed a series of truly astonishing actions, which it absolutely could not do in a normal state.
Their bodies were completely no longer under their own control, and they only returned to normal after Professor Sineipu lifted the curse.
"Green,"
Sineipu said in a low voice,
"It is your turn; remember—resist me—"
Sien paused slightly and walked to the center of the underground classroom.
In the classroom, many cauldrons were standing between the wooden tables, and copper scales and jars of ingredients were placed on the tables.
Sineipu walked closer amidst the swirling smoke.
He raised his wand, pointed it at Sien, and said:
"Imperio!"
Sien felt a wonderful sensation.
He seemed to feel light, the thoughts and worries in his mind were swept away, leaving only a hazy, intangible joy.
He stood there, feeling especially relaxed and carefree.
Then, he heard Professor Sineipu's voice, echoing in a distant corner of his empty head:
Come over... come over...
But why? Another voice woke up behind his head.
Why should he go over, the second voice said.
Come over... the first voice appeared again;
Why... the second voice said, its tone becoming a bit firmer;
Come over! The first voice was louder.
While they were arguing, the two voices suddenly paused, and they were quickly covered by other voices:
"Sien Green, my student, do not sleep."
One voice said.
"Sien Green, my friend, wake up quickly."
Another voice repeated.
Thus, Sien regained his body; Sineipu could then see with surprise that some mist was drifting out from the amulet on the young wizard's chest.
This mist was vast and white, not like normal mist, but more like something that had not yet manifested.
Sineipu examined them carefully and was stunned.
"Professor?"
Sien walked over and asked with slight curiosity.
"Not bad—"
Sineipu said quickly.
"You resisted it, no, it wasn't you who resisted it..."
As he spoke, he fell into deep thought.
Sien could see Professor Sineipu's brow furrowed tightly; he looked at his chest for a moment, then squinted his eyes.
"What exactly are you still hiding from me?"
He paced back and forth, finally leaning down in front of Sien, his face extremely sinister.
Sien did not spend much effort explaining the matter of the Boundary clearly.
Sineipu stared at him coldly, and the first sentence that blurted out made Sien feel astonished:
"Empty Talisman, the sacred relic of Uagadou, a legendary artifact that has never left Uagadou...
The power that grants wizards the ability to walk in the land of legends, the magic that traverses the dreamscape of souls... since it is not a rumor—
Tell me, Sien Green, then what about mine? What about my dream?" ===== CHAPTER 873 =====
