Chapter 828 Welcome to Hogwarts 2.0 (Part 2)

However, a few young wizards keenly noticed that these two heavyweight wizards did not stand for too long.

Whether it was the Ministry of Magic officials or the school professors, after politely applauding for a while to express celebration and welcome, they quickly put down their hands and looked at Dumbledore cautiously and expectantly.

Or to be more precise, he should be looking at the strange old wizards sitting next to Dumbledore.

"At the same time, I am honored to announce that-"

Dumbledore paused for a moment and raised his voice, "Professor Newt Scamander will also serve as the teacher of Care of Magical Creatures this year and return to us as the Honorary Headmaster of Hogwarts."

"What?!"

Hagrid's trademark rough voice boomed around the Gryffindor table.

The "special fourth-year student" who was mixed in among the students opened his eyes in shock and looked at the old wizard who stood up not far from Dumbledore and waved shyly to everyone.

There was an expression of excitement written all over it.

Not only Hagrid, but Charlie Weasley, who was still a little absent-minded, also stood up suddenly.

Charlie finally understood Bill Weasley's previous hints, and why Bill said that if he did not return to Hogwarts, it would be a lifelong regret for him - Mr. Newt Scamander, where he is, is

Fantastic animal kingdom.

However, in comparison, Gryffindor House only reacted the most normally.

If the riot just occurred in Slytherin House, then as Newt stood up, almost all the Hufflepuff students stood up involuntarily, blushed and clapped hard, stamped their feet excitedly, and shouted loudly.

Cheering.

The sudden strong sound almost overturned the ceiling of the Hogwarts Great Hall in an instant.

As the most populous house in Hogwarts, the cheers erupted by the Hufflepuffs even made the dishes on the dining table shake and clatter. If someone was standing outside the auditorium at this moment, they might think there was an explosion inside.

"Quiet, quiet - Hufflepuff - Newt isn't going away -"

Dumbledore cleared his throat, signaling for everyone to calm down a bit.

Fortunately, compared to other houses, Hufflepuff students are obviously the most obedient.

After the excitement of their idol's return, the little badgers quickly calmed down. While looking at the "Master of Fantastic Beasts" with eager eyes, whose smile was worse than crying, they tried their best to suppress the excitement in their hearts and exchanged words.

sight.

Newt Scamander is a legendary wizard who is almost equal to Dumbledore.

However, the officials of the Ministry of Magic did not seem to realize how shocking the news Dumbledore had just announced.

Compared with the extremely excited students, the eyes of these adult wizards have never left Dumbledore's side since just now. The fearful and expectant eyes look like they are waiting for the sunrise.

.

After waiting for a few seconds, when the voices in the auditorium gradually calmed down again, Dumbledore continued.

"Well, there is one last thing left for tonight. Of course, it can also be said to be two things."

"Perhaps some students know, but of course more people may have forgotten that more than a thousand years ago, Hogwarts offered a total of seven courses when it was first established, and one of them was more than three hundred years ago.

Classes were suspended before now.”

Dumbledore said softly, and with the old man's calm voice, the discussion in the auditorium slowly became quieter.

Unknowingly, Professor Binns' figure also appeared at the end of the faculty seat.

The ghost professor hung lightly in mid-air, quietly looking at Dumbledore who was speaking. His cloudy eyes contained some different look from the past, but not many people in the auditorium noticed Professor Binns.

changes in the body.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Dumbledore, listening intently to what the old man was saying.

"The name of this course is - Alchemy. What I need to emphasize is that this is a very ancient, profound and dangerous field. It is related to the potions, transformation magic and magic crafts that everyone is familiar with today.

, wandology...and even Muggle chemistry are extremely closely related."

"Whether it's turning stone into gold or extending life, behind the alchemy legends that you are all familiar with, there are all hidden terrible costs that you can't imagine. In the alchemy process, one wrong step may lead to an abyss."

Dumbledore looked around the auditorium with a serious expression and said calmly and solemnly.

"In view of the high mortality rate among alchemy apprentices, the magic world completely stopped this course about three hundred years ago."

"High mortality rate?!" Hermione repeated in a low voice, looking around in shock.

But most of the students in the auditorium were not as nervous as she was. Many people were whispering to each other excitedly, and Fred and George were extremely rare to show their studious side and couldn't wait to learn more details.

There is no doubt that for most children living in the magical world, alchemy is almost equivalent to omnipotent magic.

"For centuries, schools and the Ministry of Magic have been trying to restore this course to avoid creating a gap in knowledge..."

Dumbledore nodded politely towards Cornelius Fudge on the left side of the auditorium and continued.

"However, it is regrettable that due to the lack of safety measures and reliable, systematic teaching guidance, most of them only ensure the minimum level of teaching, and cannot truly reflect the appearance of this ancient magic."

"However, in the past few months, there has finally been progress in reopening alchemy. We are honored to invite a well-known great alchemist - one who has sufficient ability and can make the teaching process accessible.

A professor within the safe scope of his control. He plans to pass on this wisdom and knowledge to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

"Starting from this semester, Hogwarts will be the first magic school in the wizarding world to resume alchemy courses. In order to ensure the most basic teaching quality, the formal courses will be held after Halloween, and before that, some basic knowledge will be explained.

.”

"I believe that everyone has a thirst for knowledge, but the school, the Ministry of Magic and the teaching professors all agree that students who choose this course should at least have certain alchemy knowledge and excellent learning talents - in this regard, the school will

Focus on comprehensive consideration from aspects such as your learning situation during this period, personal personality, etc.”

Dumbledore looked around at the students in the auditorium and said with a smile.

"I am honored to introduce to you the alchemy professor of Hogwarts - Nico Flamel. The wizarding world..."

At this moment, Dumbledore suddenly stopped talking and looked at the old wizard beside him questioningly.

Due to the distance, the students could only see that Nico Flamel seemed to be whispering something. Dumbledore hesitated for a moment, paused his speech in a rare moment, and leaned down to discuss a few words in a lowered voice.

Judging from Dumbledore's slightly furrowed brow, he was obviously a little surprised and worried, as if he was asking about something.

After the two discussed in a low voice for a few words, Dumbledore shrugged helplessly, seemingly choosing to compromise.

"I'm very sorry. Professor LeMay just pointed out some things that need to be added in my introduction."

Dumbledore cleared his throat and said softly under the surprised eyes of the students.

"In view of the particularity and secrecy of alchemy, in addition to the familiar classroom teaching model, Professor Nico Flamel plans to select a group of talented wizards in Hogwarts to serve as his 'apprentices' to conduct ancient

inherited."

"In addition, as a reward, each selected 'apprentice' will get an opportunity to use the magic stone."

As Dumbledore spoke slowly, his peripheral vision glanced at the faces that suddenly became hot at the guest of honor, and his blue eyes flashed with meaningful light, "Of course, if someone plans to use means to borrow, then I suggest it is best to

Give up this idea as soon as possible."

"As for what the Philosopher's Stone is, and more information about Professor Nico Flamel..."

Dumbledore blinked his eyes flexibly and said happily to the confused little faces below.

"The Hogwarts library will tell you the answer. At the same time, this is also a small test for Professor Nico Flamel. After you find the answer, you can go to the bulletin board in the Ravenclaw common room to receive the task and apply to become an alchemist.

Assistant. By the way, in addition to alchemy related, there will also be some small tasks linked to scores and various rewards."

"Wait, Ravenclaw? That's not fair!"

Zachary Smith said loudly, looking at Dumbledore angrily.

"Why isn't it the bulletin board in the school hall? We don't know the password for the Ravenclaw lounge."

Ever since the news of Newt Scamander joining Hogwarts was confirmed, the Hufflepuffs' emotions have been quite high. This has also given them some extraordinary courage, such as trying to question some things.

unfair.

As Zacharis's voice fell, a low echo sounded in the auditorium.

In addition to the little wizards from Ravenclaw House, the students from the other three houses whispered to each other dissatisfiedly. Even though many of them did not know the "answers" at this time, it did not prevent them from working hard to safeguard their rights.

.

"Oh, that's a good question."

Dumbledore nodded with interest and exchanged a look with Nico Flamel.

"Because the Ravenclaw lounge does not rely on passwords to enter, Mr. Smith." He explained with a smile, "Also, since you mentioned this issue, I can explain it-more than a thousand years ago, Roy

Ms. Anna Ravenclaw was the first professor of the alchemy course at Hogwarts, which is why Professor Nico Flamel chose to live in Ravenclaw Tower."

"But……"

"Okay, there are so many important things. I think everyone is starving by now, right?"

Before Zachary Smith could continue to speak, Dumbledore said quickly, "Then, let's have a banquet!"

The next moment, the golden plates and goblets filled with food and drinks suddenly appeared in the auditorium.

In the overflowing aroma of food, the students' hunger that had been temporarily suppressed due to curiosity immediately surged up. Everyone's attention was instantly attracted by the delicious dishes in the Hogwarts kitchen, and they couldn't wait to eat.

.

Compared to any new courses or new professors, the delicious big herring at Hogwarts is obviously more tempting at this moment.



This is a very sumptuous banquet.

As the last meal before the implementation of Hogwarts' new curriculum standards, Elena specifically ordered the kitchen to increase the types of main dishes served tonight. After all, starting from tomorrow, the vegetable gardens of each college should also start to serve separately.

However, the young wizards of Ravenclaw Academy were obviously a little distracted.

Many young wizards were anxious to finish their meal quickly so that they could leave the auditorium quickly and head to the common room to see what changes had taken place on the bulletin board - of course, some of them wanted to sneak in with Professor Nicol Flamel.

idea.

Everyone knows how difficult it is to enter the Ravenclaw lounge door nowadays.

Ever since Eagle Ring became ill, its questions have become weirder and weirder day by day.

During the last semester, the average occupancy rate in the Ravenclaw dormitory was not even one-tenth, and almost everyone from prefects to first-year students spent countless nights in sleeping bags outside the corridor—

—If it weren’t for the fact that one of this year’s freshmen had the child of a mathematics professor, they might have had to experience it all over again on the first day of school.

However, luck does not always favor Ravenclaw's eaglets.

There are always times when the Bronze Eagle Ring will present some complex problems that cannot be answered by mathematics, or that are difficult to understand.

According to the countermeasures summarized in the past, Ravenclaw students are accustomed to taking turns to guard the lounge hall according to the course schedule, opening the door every half hour to look outside, until the Hogwarts curfew.

However, due to the school-wide banquet tonight, there was no one on duty in the Ravenclaw lounge at this time.

This means that if no one leads them into the lounge door, then they have to solve the damn problem. What's even worse is that the problem of the Bronze Eagle Ring today has been bothering them for a whole day.

.

Many people even have the illusion that the bronze eagle ring is broken.

In the anxious mood of not being able to go back to the dormitory to sleep, even the dishes on the table no longer taste so delicious.

Danilova, who had been given high hopes, failed, the senior students failed, and Professor Flitwick chose to respect tradition... The last hope of the Ravenclaw girls was this mysterious Ni.

Professor Ke Flamel.

Finally, the last few pieces of dessert on the golden shallow plate finally disappeared.

Dumbledore announced that everyone could go to bed, and Professor Nicol Flamel stood up from the staff table as the Ravenclaw students expected, and under the guidance of Professor Flitwick, came to Ravenclaw.

Beside Winclaw's long table.
