Hogwarts Summoning Guide

The noisy gathering of the Explorers' family came to an end. Bai Lin ultimately did not agree to go to Azkaban to take up his post because he felt that neither Nicholas, Elder Ross, Moritz, nor Fudge were reliable. Bai Lin did not want to become someone's pawn or henchman like Barnard, even though he really wanted to get the crystal ball.

Bai Lin had also thought about the main quest given to him by the Summoning Encyclopedia System many times. This set of quests seemed to be intentionally guiding his behavior. Although the previous quests did not go against Bai Lin's true intentions and were all seemingly righteous actions, Bai Lin thought about it carefully and realized that it was not entirely like that.

The summoning system instilled in him the desire to become stronger, starting from his first mission—defeating the Dementors on the train. At that time, Bai Lin's magic power was low, yet he had to face the wizards' nightmare—the Dementors. If Bai Lin hadn't known how to recruit allies as a team, making Lupin, Hagrid, and Harry his helpers, it would have been absolutely impossible to successfully seal the Dementors. This made him have an even stronger pursuit of power.

Secondly, there's the reward mechanism of the encyclopedia system. You either seal powerful magical creatures or kill Dementors or Death Eaters to gain contribution points. In short, it's all about pledging your life for power.

Thirdly, there's the unequal confrontation with the Death Eaters. Bai Lin will face the three terrifying forbidden curses; one wrong move and he'll be plunged into the agonizing Abyss. The system also restricts his use of powerful spells like the Killing Curse, repeatedly emphasizing his alignment as Lawful Good. At first, Bai Lin thought the system was just reminding him, but then he realized something was wrong. The system was actually telling him: if he wanted to become stronger, he had to choose a different alignment, such as specifically Chaotic Good or Neutral Good, or completely embrace the Evil alignment.

Even if he completely ignores the system's second main quest: walking between light and darkness, the longer Bai Lin stays in the wizarding world, the more dependent on and craving he will become for powerful magic. Therefore, his simplest path is to hunt magical creatures everywhere and then gain magic power.

Spend three to five years illuminating the entire encyclopedia. At that time, will Bai Lin's magic power be 100 or 200 points? And by then, how will Bai Lin increase his magic power? By slaughtering all the Dementors and Voldemort's minions in Azkaban.

However, no matter how strong Bai Lin's magic is, if he is attacked by an Avada Kedavra curse when he cannot use the three forbidden spells, he will be finished. Therefore, if Bai Lin wants to carry out this action with more confidence, he should either recruit a group of powerful followers or, like Voldemort, create Horcruxes to ensure his safety.

Thinking about it this way, the encyclopedia clearly intends to mold him into a second Voldemort.

Bai Lin felt a chill run down his spine. Although the encyclopedia did not give him any tasks such as what rewards he would get for killing Dumbledore, it was guiding him step by step, making him a ruthless killer, hardening his heart with steel, and slowly making him lose his sense of good and evil, turning him into a puppet of the system.

Thinking back to how he had once planned to murder Malfoy's father, Bai Lin felt a wave of fear. If Bellatrix was a villain who deserved to die, the Malfoy family could only be considered minor accomplices who didn't deserve to die. In the original story, they even helped Harry in the end, choosing to protect their family and not participating in the final battle.

With mixed feelings, Bai Lin bid farewell to Fudge, who was in a hurry. Although Fudge's position was not as high as it seemed, there were still countless matters in the Ministry of Magic that Fudge needed to handle. Just as Bai Lin was about to have Phineas Apparate with him, a beautiful figure appeared in front of him. It was the beautiful Miss Lulu.

"Cousin Kailin, do you have time to talk?" Lulu smiled, her smile impeccable, which made Bai Lin's heart skip a beat.

Despite feeling somewhat guilty towards Catherine, Bai Lin inexplicably accepted a small card Lulu handed him. However, it didn't have a hotel room number on it; instead, it listed a historic café in London.

Phineas Apparated Bai Lin back to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. Bai Lin then saw that it was already pitch black outside, almost 10 p.m. But looking at the card in his hand, Bai Lin still decided to keep the appointment. It wasn't entirely out of affection for an extremely beautiful woman; he had a premonition that this cousin could offer him a different kind of experience.

This café, named "Federation," is hailed as the best café in South London. Phineas followed Bai Lin discreetly, introducing him to the scenery along the way and their destination. To the Muggle passersby, Bai Lin was just a dashing, ordinary Eastern gentleman.

During the day, it would be impossible to get a seat here, but now it's late at night, and Londoners live at a slower pace. Ordinary people don't have the energy to drink coffee to stay awake in the middle of the night. Bai Lin glanced at the sign on the café's glass door that said it was open until 9 pm, and gently pushed open the door.

The beautiful Miss Lulu was sitting at a small, private table at the back, waving to Bai Lin in a friendly manner. Bai Lin glanced around and saw that there was no other customer in the café except for Lulu. Several waiters stood at the bar in the distance, looking quite nervous.

"Cousin Kailin, please sit down~" Lulu stood up and invited Bai Lin to sit down. Her warmth made Bai Lin feel a little flattered.

Seeing Bai Lin's strange look, Lulu smiled and said, "Cousin, don't mind. This shop is my grandfather's business, so they're a little nervous when they see me."

Bai Lin suddenly realized and asked, "Uh, who is your grandfather?"

"You've met Elder Ross before~" Lulu said in a slightly lowered voice, "Let's talk while we drink. I ordered you a flat white, hopefully it will help you sober up~" Although Bai Lin did not accept the warden's arrangement in the end, Nicholas and Moritz seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, as did Fudge. They drank together frequently in the second half of the evening, and Bai Lin also drank quite a bit.

Lulu held up her very delicate fingers, and immediately a waiter brought over fragrant white coffee and snacks. Then she quickly retreated to the bar and waited at a distance.

"Elder Ross, he..." Bai Lin was about to ask Elder Ross why he recommended him to be the warden when Lulu interrupted her with a grin, "Never mind Grandpa's strange behavior. He also recommended me to be the deputy director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters at the Australian Ministry of Magic. Good heavens, I just graduated, how would I know how to handle those things?"

"So why did you ask me out?" Bai Lin glanced at the coffee and snacks in front of him, not understanding Lulu's purpose, and had no desire to put the coffee in his mouth. His suspicions about the encyclopedia made him somewhat paranoid.

"I see you seem really interested in opening a magical shopping street in Paris~" Lulu said while eating a snack.

"What?"
