The first week of classes after the start of school is very conducive to losing weight. Whether it is squeezing the pus from Baboo tubers with your hands in the herbal medicine class or trying to raise Hagrid's snails, these are some disgusting projects that make people unable to eat.
Especially Hagrid's Blast-Ended Skrewt, let's not talk about how he cultivated such a thing. In Ryan's eyes, his cultivation was completely in the wrong direction. Why did he have to cultivate the Blast-tailed Skrewt in a ferocious direction?
?Blast-tailed snails obviously look like deformed lobsters with their shells removed. Wouldn’t it be better if they were cultivated for consumption?
After all, Ryan thinks it looks delicious when it looks like a big lobster without a shell. As long as it is caught, cleaned, wrapped in egg oil and fried in egg oil, it will definitely be delicious. Even if this kind of thing can grow as big as a small house when it reaches adulthood.
It will still grow a shell, but it is easy to peel the shell when it is big. Think about how many people it can feed if it is so big.
The key subject this week is the Defense Against the Dark Arts class on Thursday. Not to mention that everyone who took Moody's class a few days ago praised him. The most important thing is that Ryan needs an opportunity to observe closely to confirm.
Moody's truth and falsehood.
But after finishing the class, Ryan felt even more confused, because although Moody taught the three unforgivable curses, he did not show them the actual operation, let alone let everyone experience how to resist the Imperius Curse. Instead, he combined his many years of
The Auror experience uses cases and stories to teach everyone how to resist these spells.
After the class, Lain pretended to be a little disappointed and asked the Weasley brothers. "I thought Moody could demonstrate the unforgivable curses, so he just talked about some cases. Although his lecture was very good, but this
It’s still a little different from what I imagined.”
After the twins looked at each other, George said: "Actually, this approach is very consistent with Moody's habits. After all, he has always been a person who sticks to the rules. In that war, he relied on this principle to inspire all the Aurors.
So even though many Ministry of Magic staff turned to the mysterious man, not a single Auror rebelled during the entire war."
"More than that." Fred added; "In that era, the Ministry of Magic even lifted restrictions on the use of lethal force by Aurors, but Moody still insisted that they could only be punished after trial. This concept allowed him to do his best in battle.
It is possible to capture the opponent alive, and he has captured a large number of Death Eaters currently imprisoned in Azkaban with his own hands. Of course, this concept also cost him, as his legs and eyes were lost in the battle."
"Although I think Moody is a bit pedantic, our whole family admires his ability to still adhere to his ideas in such a dangerous environment." Finally, George concluded.
After saying goodbye to the twins, Ryan felt even more confused, because after listening to the twins' narration, Moody seemed real. But Harry did have that nightmare. What would Voldemort do in this case? Will he still be able to do it?
Are you going to send an undercover agent to Hogwarts to cause trouble?
But no matter how much Ryan was troubled by this matter, time still passed day by day. Finally, it was time for the first book club meeting of this semester on Sunday.
Sure enough, the hot spots in Hogwarts recently are Moody and the Triwizard Tournament, and the members of the reading club are no exception. After solving and practicing the problems accumulated over the summer vacation, everyone unanimously requested a little longer time to discuss the recent school.
hot events.
After the Weasley twins introduced Moody's great achievements as an Auror in unison, and gave everyone a general introduction to what kind of person the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was, everyone quickly began to discuss the topic of the three wizards.
The topic of the competition. After a few words of discussion, everyone started talking about how to bypass the age limit to register, because everyone in the book club, even the oldest Weasley brothers, were several months behind the permitted age.
"Professor Dumbledore said at the opening banquet that because the events of the Tournament are difficult and dangerous, he himself will ensure that no student underage will deceive the impartial referee and become a Hogwarts warrior. This illustrates at least two things, first
The first warrior was not chosen by Professor Dumbledore. Secondly, this so-called impartial referee would not care about the age of the warrior at all. He would only judge who is the most suitable warrior based on his own strength. That's why Dumbledore said it was up to him
Make sure everyone who signs up is old enough." Ryan first expressed his opinion.
"About referees, I only know that the principals of participating schools must be members of the referee team," Hermione said. "Because it is recorded in "Hogwarts: A School History" that in the 1792 Hegemony Tournament, the warriors wanted to catch
A monster with the body of a cockatrice and a snake's tail was out of control and rampaged, and all three principals were injured."
"However, the three principals are definitely not the fair referees who choose the warriors. Their identities are destined to prevent them from holding this position." Justin Fenglieri said.
"No matter who the referee is who selects the warriors, as long as we can deceive Principal Dumbledore's age limit, it's enough, so we boiled a pot of age-enhancing drugs. If any of you want it, you can also have some." Frey said.
De said to everyone with beaming eyes.
"I don't think age-increasing agents can be useful. After all, this method is too simple. The principal will not even think of this." After thinking for a while, Zhang Qiu said.
"Maybe what you said is right." George nodded to Zhang Qiu. "But without other information, this is the only way we can think of."
"And age-increasing drugs are not common medicines. You can boil them a little longer and sell them to others. It is always a good thing to make some money whether it succeeds or not." Jackie Swinton made a suggestion to the twins.
"The only problem now is who will review the warrior qualifications. If we don't know, we can't prepare accordingly." Alicia said with some confusion. "I wrote to my parents asking them to help find out, but so far,
I haven’t even heard any news.”
"My grandma doesn't know how the warriors are selected. After all, this competition has been stopped for a century. Even when she was young, she only heard about it briefly." Neville added on the side.
"Maybe the referee is not a human being. After all, it is difficult for wizards to ensure that they make a decision in an absolutely fair and calm manner due to the influence of harassing flies." Luna said in an erratic tone like singing. Everyone thought she was just
It was just a joke to liven up the atmosphere. Only Ryan looked at Luna in surprise.
In short, in the end, until the curfew was about to begin and everyone was preparing to go back to the dormitory, no result was reached from the discussion. The only ones who gained something from the discussion were the twins. They decided to take some more age-enhancing drugs and sell them to other classmates.
However, the Triwizard Tournament did not represent everything. Soon everyone shifted their energy to their homework. Because in the days that followed, the workload assigned by the professors became increasingly heavier. For example, Professor McGonagall directly said in class
: "Your O.W.LS exam is coming soon"
Although some students disagreed with this and thought that there was still a whole year before the exam. However, Ryan felt a sense of familiarity from Professor McGonagall's tone. After all, as a person who had experienced the college entrance examination, in his memory, he felt that he was in advance before the exam.
One-year review is a routine operation.
Soon, time came to the second Friday in the busy schedule. Luo Zhen was counting the days and it was time to come back from his trip. He decided to take this opportunity to visit and ask him to help answer questions about alchemy that he had accumulated during this period.
