"I heard someone said that the wizard card competition has been brought forward?"
When Cedric saw Albert coming over, he reached into his schoolbag and pulled out the "Defense Guide" he borrowed a few days ago, and handed it back to him with a smile.
"Yes, they all think that the Wizarding Card Competition should be moved forward to avoid the Triwizard Tournament. I think it makes sense. In the second half of the semester, everyone will definitely pay more attention to the Triwizard Tournament, and not many people will care about the Wizarding Card Competition.
"
"I also heard..." Cedric looked at Albert and laughed, "The winner of the wizard card competition can be your partner at the Christmas ball?"
"Not a dance partner." Albert noticed that the girls around him were casting curious glances, and immediately corrected him, "Even if he danced a few dances at the ball, it was all Fred's bad idea. He thought this would help
Bring more popularity to the Wizard Card Club."
"What if the winner of the wizard card is a boy?" Cedric winked and joked: "Do you have to dance with a boy? I think many girls may be looking forward to seeing you dancing with a boy.
.”
"No, if the winner of the wizard card championship is a boy, he will get an extra small gift." Albert shook the "Defense Guide" in his hand and said.
"This magazine is good, but the price is a bit expensive." Cedric complained: "If the price could be cheaper, I would spend my own money to subscribe to it."
"Is it expensive? I think the knowledge in it is very practical." Albert's evaluation of Lupine was still good, "Professor Luping's teaching level is also not bad. In fact, he is very suitable for teaching freshmen who are new to Defense Against the Dark Arts."
, it’s a pity that due to his identity as a werewolf, no parents will be willing to let their children get close to him, so running a magazine can be considered as a way to use my spare energy.”
"You are right." Cedric did learn a lot of useful knowledge from the "Guide to Defense." "Professor Moody is indeed more suitable for teaching advanced students."
"I think Professor Moody should teach some practical magic. The magic that Professor Lupine mentioned in the "Defense Guide" is very practical." Angelina borrowed the "Defense Guide" from Albert.
"I'm more curious, is Azkaban really like what is described in the magazine?" Zannah had read Sirius's description of Azkaban prison, and she could only describe it as horrific.
"I don't think Blake deliberately exaggerated the situation in Azkaban." To be honest, after reading Blake's description of Azkaban, Albert finally understood why Hagrid was afraid of such a place.
That kind of gloomy, terrifying place with an atmosphere of despair everywhere, I'm afraid only those crazy Death Eaters can survive, but it is undeniable that Azkaban Prison does have a strong deterrent effect on ordinary wizards.
"We should take the time to practice the magic mentioned in the "Defense Guide." George suggested, "There are many very practical magics in it that we don't know how to use."
Many people looked this way, and they actually hoped that Albert could continue the defense association last semester. Everyone can always learn a lot of useful things at the party.
"We can let Professor Moody spend some time teaching everyone." Albert said without hesitation, "After all, he is a professional in this field, and he must be much better than a dabbler like me."
Although it was true, everyone also heard that this was Albert's excuse. Moreover, it would be difficult to get Professor Moody to spend time teaching them the spells in the magazine.
After a while, there were distinctive thumping footsteps in the corridor. Professor Moody walked over on crutches. He stood in front of the classroom door and took out a key from his pocket to open the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
"Today is a practical class." Moody announced to everyone after entering the classroom. "I will take turns to cast the Imperius Curse on each student to let everyone experience the effect of this curse and teach you how to resist its influence.
.”
There was an uproar in the classroom. Everyone knew that the Imperius Curse was the Unforgivable Curse and had strong psychological resistance to it.
"Professor Dumbledore hopes you can feel..." Before Professor Moody could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a weak voice.
"Professor, I seem to be sick..." Albert suddenly said, "I'm afraid I have to go to the campus hospital."
Everyone turned to look at Albert, with expressions on their faces that were a little confused, because they discovered that Albert, who was still alive and kicking, suddenly turned pale, with an abnormal flush, and looked special.
haggard.
"Professor, Albert seems to have a fever. I think he has the flu." George reached out to probe Albert's forehead and said immediately, "I will send him to the school hospital right now!"
Before Professor Moody could react, George led Albert out of the classroom.
Then, before anyone could react, he disappeared from their sight.
"That guy was fine just now, why did he suddenly have a fever?" The boy next to Cedric said, "Maybe he was pretending to be afraid of embarrassing himself later!"
"He doesn't look like he's pretending." Cedric shook his head.
However, he probably guessed the reason. Most likely, Albert did not want Professor Moody to use the Imperius Curse on him, so he skipped the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon in this way.
Well, as long as the students in the classroom are clear-headed, they will know that Albert actually does not want Professor Moody to use the Imperius Curse on him, and uses this method to find a ladder for both parties.
As for how he did it, no one knew, but the look on his face just now clearly didn't look like he was pretending.
At this moment, Moody was confused. He originally planned to use this opportunity to test Albert's resistance to the Imperius Curse. However, after hearing the content of the class, Moody pretended to be sick and skipped class to sneak away.
Don't give him any chance at all.
Anyway, when everyone saw Albert in the auditorium, his face did not look like he had been sick and had a high fever just now.
"Albert, what method did you use in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class?" Angelina asked curiously, "It was like having a real high fever. How did you do it?"
"Use this thing." Fred mysteriously took out a two-color hard candy from his robe pocket.
"What's this?"
"Quick-acting truant candy, one of the magical candy series." Fred explained in a low voice: "If you eat this candy, you will have fever symptoms. Of course, if you use it directly, this is just an ordinary candy, even if the professor
If I take this thing out of your pocket and let you eat it, you will find that it is just an ordinary candy."
"It's very useful. Can you give us a few?" Angelina asked expectantly. "Maybe it will come in handy sometime."
"Two things are worth one thing." George said without thinking.
"So expensive?" The girls all stared.
"If the material formula and production tools can be improved, the price should be lowered to about one centigrade. Now these are all made by hand, so it is normal for the price to be relatively expensive."
Albert took out a few fever candies from his robe pocket, gave them one each, and warned, "I won't accept your candies this time. Remember to help keep it secret. The way to use it is to separate the candies and mark them with n."
That part is the antidote."
"What a genius idea, who came up with it?" Shanna looked at the candy in her hand.
"Fred and George." Albert changed the subject and said, "Tell me about what happened in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."
After Albert changed the subject, the girls began to chat about interesting things in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. For example, Fred was controlling Professor Moody to sing a Hogwarts school song, and Cedric was
She danced an elegant ballet in front of everyone, almost shocking others' jaws.
Anyway, no one among the sixth grade students could resist this spell, and they all returned to normal after Moody removed the spell.
"What spell did Professor Moody use to eliminate the influence of the Imperius Curse?" Albert found this matter a bit strange.
If the Imperius Curse can really be lifted, the original Imperius Curse will not have a serious impact on the British wizarding world. After all, as long as the curse is lifted every day on those who have been hit by the Imperius Curse, the risk of contact infiltration can be completely avoided.
At least, he didn't think that wizards were idiots, not even that.
Albert thought that when he went to see Dumbledore in two days, he could ask him about this incident. It would be better if Dumbledore knew the principle of the Thief-proof Falls.
However, Albert suspected that Gringotts' anti-thief waterfall might be related to goblin magic. Goblin magic and wizard's magic are not in the same system.
