47 Explanation

"Well, there is an explanation..." Albert said. "Among Muggles, a group of professional scientists discovered a substance, which is a protein that can catalyze the formation of eggshells. This protein is only found in the ovaries of chickens. That is to say, if there is no chicken, there is no such protein, and then it is impossible to form an eggshell. The formation of an eggshell can protect the chicken, for them to successfully hatch. So they concluded that there were chickens first, then eggs."

After these words, everyone froze immediately, even the little wizards from the Muggle world.

"I know you don't understand, but the thing is that someone has verified it," Albert explained

"So..." Katrina asked tentatively, "Do you think there is a phoenix first and then a fire?"

"No, the magical world is different from the Muggle world." Albert shook his head. "Phoenix and fire, I think it should be a cycle. After the phoenix dies, it will be reborn from the ashes. Its life will only cycle forever. I think it is meaningless to explore the starting point of the Phoenix."

Katrina raised her eyebrows, and Albert's answer was not bad.

Awesome, even among Ravenclaw students, very few could answer it the first time." The Ravenclaw boy behind Albert couldn't help but praise Albert. "By the way, my name is Roger Davis, nice to meet you."

Roger Davis faced many questions from the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker, but he answered all of them incorrectly.

Most Ravenclaw first years couldn't answer questions from the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker. If they wanted to get in and out of the common room, they always needed to have Ravenclaw's senior students with them to let them in, which was inconvenient.

"I'm very curious, why were you assigned to Gryffindor?" Roger Davis asked what everyone was curious about.

"Who knows?"

The conversation was halted because Professor Binns crossed the blackboard into the history of magic classroom, his way of coming into the classroom was eye-opening.

Ten minutes later, all the students in the classroom looked drowsy.

The history of magic was publicized as the most boring course. Professor Binns always read out the contents of the book in a boring voice. Everyone just had to jot down important names and dates, even Ravenclaw students could not resist this hypnosis.

The only awake person in the classroom was Albert, with a candy in his mouth.

He was reading a book seriously, and occasionally make notes on another book.

"It's hard to imagine, you can stay awake through Professor Binns' hypnosis!" After class, the Weasley twins looked at Albert with admiration, putting one hand on his shoulder, "Please make sure to take the history of magic notes. And give me a copy too."

Lee had taken the history of magic notes from Albert's hand with a smile.

Albert rolled his eyes.

"Do you know? The rumour about Professor Cuthbert Binns."

"What rumours?" The three of them were immediately attracted.

"According to a record in Hogwarts history." Albert said in a low voice, "Professor Binns did not notice that he was dead, at least in the beginning."

"One day, Professor Binns got up to go to class, but accidentally left his body in an armchair in front of the fire in the faculty lounge. Of course, he was quite old at that time."

"Wow!" The three of them were surprised.

Before Lunch, the three had copied Albert's notes of the history of magic.

"Do we have classes in the afternoon?" George asked. He couldn't wait to fly around on Charlie's comet.

"There is another lesson in the afternoon, transfiguration," Lee said dejectedly.

Albert murmured: "I dare say this is the easiest course!"

Albert gave up his plan to prepare sandwiches for himself. He hated eating sandwiches all day long. After drinking some pumpkin juice and a few stewed potatoes, he ended his lunch hastily.

The twins were going to take advantage of this time to go out for a stroll. Albert thought that they should anything they wanted after the transfiguration class. After all, they would have enough time and energy at that time. As for the time between lunch and before class, Albert intended to go to the castle. He wanted to rest in the courtyard and read a book.

There were students everywhere in the courtyard. They gathered in groups to chat, and some brought lunch there.

Hogwarts in September no longer had the sweltering heat of summer, not to mention that it had just rained yesterday, and the breeze brought the coolness of autumn.

"It would be great if I could make a seat cushion." Albert sat on the lawn and couldn't help but sigh. "I also suddenly felt that it is important to learn transfiguration."

"Say, what's in that forest?" Fred suddenly asked, looking at the forbidden forest in the distance.

"Dumbledore said there were werewolves inside."

"There are centaurs."

"Probably there are other magical creatures," Albert continued. "Perhaps the gamekeeper will also raise some strange creatures in the forest."

For example, hippogriffs, acromantulas, giants...

"By the way, did you learn the disillusionment charm?" George switched the topic. He didn't plan to go to the Forbidden Forest for the time being. They liked to take risks for excitement, not to die, and werewolves were notorious in the magical world.

At present, their biggest concern was the night tours.

"It's not easy to master the disillusionment spell." Albert took out his wand, chanted a spell, and tapped on a fallen leaf lightly.

The colour of the surface of the leaf began to change as if it had blended into his palm.

"It feels different from what I imagined." Li Qiaodan scratched his head and said.

"It may not be visible from a distance, but in fact..." Albert shook his head helplessly: "It will be immediately noticed when you look up close."

"It's kind of like a chameleon."

"Its principle is similar to the protective skin of the chameleon." Albert did not directly use the experience pool's experience to upgrade the disillusionment spell. He planned to spend time and slowly explore it, as he would feel a sense of accomplishment if he fully grasped it by himself.

The process of learning was still very important. Only then would he feel like going to school at Hogwarts. He didn't want to miss this experience.

Albert had been prepared to spend two months teaching himself the Disillusionment charm.
