For a moment, Tom was a little touched. Doraemon once said that a person's luck is like a hemp rope, good luck and bad luck appear alternately. But Tom once thought that his luck was a rubber band - all bad luck. But today,
He finally won once! Three rounds, gold came out, and there was no twist! He is a traveler who is very good at making the system draw gold cards for him and is proficient in prediction.
Tom decided to follow his heart's decision and draw cards next time.
And the improvement that Dumbledore brought to him is also unparalleled. The talent points that Dumbledore improved this time are curses and black magic!
[The black magic talent has reached the full level. Do you want to convert the talent into magic theory? 】
Tom's eyes lit up: Magic theory? Since it is black magic, can it be transformed into Defense Against the Dark Arts that is related to black magic?
He chose [Yes]
Another option popped up in the system: the knowledge theory that can be activated by the overflowing black magic talent has two options: black magic and defense against the dark arts. Tom thought for a while, then he must choose the defense against the dark arts. Maybe black magic will be available this school year.
It can be unlocked. Defense against Darkness will most likely have to wait until the third grade.
He chose Defense Against the Dark Arts without hesitation, so the knowledge theory column added the item [Defense Against the Dark Arts Level 0 (???)], and also gave Tom a location where he could find help.
The "key" to learning this subject - according to Tom's speculation, it should be the valuable learning experience left by a senior, which can effectively help him acquire knowledge in the lower grades.
In the next few weeks, Tom would either study in the library, complete homework, and gain experience points in subjects, or go to the Room of Requirement to practice spells and increase his experience and proficiency. Soon, Christmas came.
Tom's system panel has also changed into a completely new look.
Magic pets: Birds and snakes (infancy), homing pigeons (adults)
Talent: Charms: 4 (The appearance of a middle-aged man)
Potions: 5 (gifted)
Divination: 3 (gifted)
Transfiguration: 5 (talented)
Alchemy: 1 (acceptable talent)
Herbalism: 4 (Zhongrenzi)
…
Dark Magic:9+(Azkaban)
Magic Stone:30120]
Through the liver explosion, he became stronger, but the magic stone also dived all the way, approaching the very dangerous 30,000 mark.
The weather is getting colder, and snowflakes often float in the sky. As Christmas approaches day by day, everyone is getting happier, but a piece of news disturbs Tom and Hermione's good mood: their confinement time has not yet expired.
Sure. For ordinary students, if they commit a crime, they will definitely deal with it as soon as possible and send you to repent as soon as possible. But Tom and Hermione are a little different. Their confinement is not a punishment, but to let them "acquire knowledge"
, then it is more complicated. Hagrid is not ready yet - the gamekeeper needs to prepare the content of the "teaching".
The postponement of the confinement time is not a good thing in their minds. It is like a class. At the beginning of the semester, the teacher tells you that there will be a class quiz at the end of the month, but at the end of the month, he tells you that it will be postponed to the midterm exam week, and the result is that the midterm exam will be postponed.
At that time, I told you that it would be postponed to one week before the end of the year.
Of course, this is not the most devastating situation. The most devastating thing is that during final exam week, the teacher had completely forgotten about this test...
In mid-December, there was a heavy snowfall at the school, with several feet of snow. It is said that the Weasley twins in Gryffindor were severely punished because they chased Professor Quirrell with several snowballs.
While running around, a snowball even hit him hard on the back of the head, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
However, the severe cold outside cannot penetrate the thick castle walls and affect the little wizards inside. There is a strong fire in the common room, and the little wizards like to sit by the fire and warm themselves while doing things.
In winter, enjoying the warmth of the fire, listening to the wood chirping in the flames, making nice white noise, and listening to the cold wind howling outside, can effectively improve your happiness index.
But it’s a hardship for those owls, even if it’s windy and snowy, they still need to work. The cost of hiring an owl to send letters in the Owl House has increased several times - it is not completely free for the owls in the school to use, these clever owls
The little guys will ask for some rewards from the little wizards, either food or a few copper nuts. This way they can go to the administrator in exchange for some extra food after they return from delivering the letter.
It’s not working now, it’s snowing heavily outside, and few school owls are willing to go out to pick up jobs. They prefer to huddle in a shed to hide from the snow, unless you really give them enough. Of course, private owls don’t
This is the treatment.
The Christmas holiday at Hogwarts starts on December 20th and ends on January 3rd. Since December 20th is a Monday and January 3rd is a Friday, the actual holiday is from December 18th to January 5th, with a total length of up to
19 days. This is the most enjoyable time for little wizards besides summer vacation.
The last class before Christmas for the first-year Ravenclaw wizards was flying class. When this class was canceled due to heavy snow, they had already entered a de facto holiday state. The whole college was happy because they
He can go home! But Tom encountered a very real problem: he has no home and no family.
But when Professor Flitwick came to count the students who had stayed at school, Hermione stopped Tom.
"Come home with me for Christmas?" Hermione extended the invitation, but Tom hesitated: This is a day for family reunion, is it appropriate for him to get involved?
But before hesitating, Professor Flitwick had already left quickly - there were almost no students left in Ravenclaw. Hermione took out another letter, breaking through Tom's psychological defense.
"Tom, look, Dad really wants me to invite you over!"
So what is there to say? On Monday morning, Tom and Hermione appeared on the train platform in Hogsmeade, and then took the Hogwarts Express back to London together.
When the train entered the station, Mr. Granger and Mrs. Granger were already waiting on the platform.
