This sentence made Hermione look at him without the previous repulsion; she believed his previous words weren't intentional, and she said with a touch of arrogance, "I want to see how you deal with the Troll."
Lan Luo had no choice but to let them follow. Not long after, the group arrived at the girls' restroom. The partition walls inside the restroom were already shattered. Lan Luo didn't say much, directly pulled out his wand, which hadn't been used in a long time, pointed it at the Troll's head, and said, "Stupefy!" Lan Luo had increased his magic output; he knew Trolls had high magic resistance, but high magic resistance didn't mean immunity.
A burst of magic instantly flew from the wand, striking the giant. The giant was sent flying backward, crashing into the girls' restroom wall and remaining there for three seconds before falling to the ground, unconscious.
This scene left the three Little Wizards stunned.
Just then, Professor McGonagall, who was running, also saw the Troll lying on the ground. Snape and Professor Quirrell, who were following behind, also saw it.
Professor McGonagall was clearly startled, "You four had better explain yourselves to me."
At this point, Lan Luo stepped forward and said, "This was my idea. It's better to solve the problem, isn't it, Professor McGonagall? I didn't want the Troll to harm any students."
Professor McGonagall continued, "What you did was utterly foolish. I thought you had more sense than others, but you have disappointed me greatly, Mr. Thomas. Ravenclaw, minus 5 points. Because you showed a severe lack of judgment in your actions."
Then she turned to Harry and the two other Little Wizards and said, "I hope you realize how lucky you are. It's not often that first-year students can take on a Troll and survive. Plus 5 points for each of you three, simply because you were so lucky."
The three Little Wizards were overjoyed to hear this. Heaven knows, they had been losing points from Snape ever since they arrived at Hogwarts.
After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, she left with Snape. Professor Quirrell then stepped forward and said, "You should leave quickly; he's not dead yet." Then he pretended to be very scared. If Lan Luo didn't know his true identity, he would have been fooled.
After Halloween, Lan Luo returned to studying ancient magic and divination spellbooks, borrowing dozens of books each time. On one occasion, Madam Pince even tested Lan Luo, and Lan Luo recited the entire article from "Peering Through the Mists of the Future" on the spot, which finally appeased Madam Pince's anger.
After that, no similar incidents occurred. During this time, Lan Luo mainly focused on advanced applications of ancient runes, Runic, and Manichaean scripts. Many modern alchemical items are constructed using these runes, such as ancient runes and Runic.
The Quidditch match was approaching, but Lan Luo had no interest in Quidditch. If Lan Luo participated, he would transform into lightning and finish the match in an instant.
Lan Luo had no intention of watching the Quidditch match. For Lan Luo, finishing the books as quickly as possible was the best solution. He still wanted to obtain the Resurrection Stone, which had abilities even better than the mirror of erised. Lan Luo's current idea was to create a communication-type watch that could directly project his thoughts, allow for long-distance communication through magic, and even enable purchasing or teleporting items on the formed network. He could achieve this by using the principle of the Vanishing Cabinet.
He could also purchase potions by topping up galleons, allowing the Wizarding World to quickly reach any place, needing only a few silver Sickles. Thinking about it, Lan Luo felt it would be very interesting.
The network could draw inspiration from the Floo Network and the Aurors' Trace research; they also formed a network. However, they hadn't conceived of video projection ideas. Lan Luo could foresee that if projection watches appeared in the Wizarding World, capable of projecting communications, storing items, fast receiving and delivering goods, fixed-point teleportation, and even watching live movies, listening to music, and browsing videos, it would be a huge shock to the Wizarding World, especially compared to the Muggle world still listening to headphones and watching black and white televisions.
It could even allow for continuous learning and sharing of magical insights through the watch, as well as potion forums and Weibo-like platforms. If there were an AI to process it, Lan Luo's magic, through this network, would yield enormous benefits from the organized information.
Then the Wizarding World would definitely undergo immense changes because of Lan Luo. The conflicts in the Wizarding World are also very significant right now. If Lan Luo could let some Death Eaters sell things online, they could also earn a lot of galleons. The Ministry of Magic and the Pure-blood families would no longer have absolute control. This is something the Ministry of Magic would not allow, but it's different in a school. Now it can be spread better within the school, because who can stop a student's invention?
With Dumbledore backing him, and donating several years' worth of fees to the school annually, and students being able to communicate, learn, listen to music, and watch movies—wouldn't that be great?
Thinking of this, Lan Luo wanted to see Dumbledore sooner, because only he could quickly find the things Lan Luo wanted, whether it was Gaunt's Ring, the philosophers stone, or the mirror of erised, all of which were peak alchemical existences with much to learn from. Moreover, Dumbledore only cared about the Boy Who Lived and would also be interested in Voldemort's other Horcruxes. If Lan Luo were under the Ministry of Magic, he wouldn't even consider doing any of this.
After thinking, Lan Luo headed to the eighth floor. Standing at the entrance of the Headmaster's office, Lan Luo said, "Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, Cockroach Clusters, Lemon Sherbet, Chocolate Frogs."
Not long after, the door opened automatically. It wasn't because Lan Luo had guessed the password correctly, but because Dumbledore inside had noticed Lan Luo standing at the door, not leaving, having initially thought he would still go to the Room of Requirement.
Lan Luo entered the room and saw portraits of past headmasters, and also Fawkes, whom he had longed for. When Lan Luo saw Fawkes, Fawkes shivered.
Dumbledore then placed candies on the Headmaster's office desk and said, "Sit down. Would you like some Cockroach Clusters?"
Lan Luo politely said, "Thank you, Headmaster. Chocolate Frogs will be fine."
Hearing this, Dumbledore happily continued, "I thought you wouldn't come to see me so soon, Mr. Thomas."
Lan Luo echoed, "I thought I wouldn't come so early either, but I have something I need the Headmaster's help with. Of course, I will pay the corresponding price."
Dumbledore was also full of curiosity about Lan Luo. He knew from Madam Pince that this Little Wizard had finished all the textbooks for the upper years, and this was only in a little over two months. This Little Wizard must have a secret, but as the Headmaster, he certainly couldn't forcefully take things from a student.
"So, Mr. Thomas, how can I help you?" Dumbledore looked at the Little Wizard with amusement.
"Headmaster, I need you to accompany me to a place. As a token of my sincerity, I will first give you one of The Dark Lord's Horcruxes." Lan Luo took out ravenclaws diadem. Currently, Lan Luo was unfamiliar with the Wizarding World and other regions, and The Dark Lord's contingency plans for Gaunt's Ring were equivalent to nothing for Lan Luo. He could seal The Dark Lord's remnant soul inside using a clone.
Hearing this, Headmaster Dumbledore straightened up from his chair, "This is what you got from the Room of Requirement." It was then that Dumbledore remembered ravenclaws diadem; no wonder the Little Wizard could learn so quickly.
