A copy of Hogwarts Magazine costs only 3 Sicos, and is sold twice a month.
The Daily Prophet, which is updated daily, sells for 5 Knuts, which translates into similar monthly costs for the two newspapers. However, Hogwarts magazine has a lottery, and this strategy that Joel came up with became a winning formula.
The students are not stupid. You can read the Daily Prophet every morning by borrowing it from your classmates and friends. Anyway, the news on it every day is mostly the same, such as the neighbor Molly’s lost puppy, Uncle White’s garden with gnomes overflowing...
The quality of news in the Daily Prophet, which is published every day, is mediocre and cannot interest students compared to Hogwarts Magazine.
The first issue of 150 copies sold out quickly. The enthusiasm of Hogwarts students was beyond imagination. Joel and his friends urgently printed an additional 100 copies.
Professor Flitwick promoted Hogwarts magazine in class. He proudly repeated over and over again the company established by the founder team - Raven Faith. This is a pure entrepreneurial team of Ravenclaw students and is definitely worthy of encouragement.
Joel is still studying wandless spellcasting recently, and the progress is very slow, or there are no new discoveries at all. No matter how he tries, the mental power in his brain cannot make the magic manifest in the form of a spell.
The World Tree fell into silence again, but Joel had a hunch that it would wake up again soon - because there are less than 60 days left before the end of the task announced by the system.
It only took the newly appointed Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Lupine one class to save his poor impression among the students.
"I heard that Professor Lockhart founded the Fighting Club last year." Professor Lupine stood on the podium. He was wearing a patched gray robe and looked tired. He looked like a down-and-out scholar. "I don't plan to cancel it.
This activity.”
This sentence won the hearts of most of the students in the audience. The students did not have much hope for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who changed every year. As long as the professor did not cause trouble and could teach them the knowledge in the book, that would be fine.
"Today we are going to learn to subdue a dark magical creature called a hag," Lupine stood on the stage. "During this summer vacation, I successfully discovered traces of this creature in the city, and..."
"Live up to your expectations and bring it to the classroom." Lu Ping opened a ball of black cloth behind him as he spoke.
There is an iron cage hidden under a black cloth. A kind-hearted old lady is huddled in the corner of the iron cage. Her gray hair looks harmless, but her limbs are tightly tied by iron chains and she cannot move.
There is a pitiful feeling.
"Ah..." Some students in the audience couldn't hold back their emotions and screamed.
"Professor Lupin," Marietta couldn't help but say, "is this the dominatrix you are talking about?"
Professor Luping nodded, "That's right."
The students in the audience were in an uproar. They stood up and poked their heads forward, but they could not detect the slightest trace of a dark magical creature on the old man.
"Dominatrixes look similar to humans." Lupine took out his wand and tapped the iron cage gently. Dominatrixes nervously raised their heads and looked around, "Whether it is from appearance or smell, it is difficult for ordinary wizards to identify them..."
"Look at your textbook, there are identification methods written on it," Lu Ping said mildly, "They only have four toes..."
He also tapped the blackboard with his wand, and the writing on the blackboard appeared, indicating the life characteristics of the hags, "They feed on other animals - including human cubs, like darkness, and usually like to move in human form."
"As for how to subdue this kind of dark magic creature, it is the top priority of our lesson." Lupine waved his wand again, and the iron chains on the dominatrix and the iron cage disappeared instantly.
The dominatrix was stunned for two seconds before she realized that she was free again.
It was secretly attacked and knocked unconscious by the wizard in downtown London. During this period of imprisonment, it has been resentful. The magic chain restricted its movement. The dominatrix thought that if she was prepared to use all her skills, this witch would
The sickly looking wizard is definitely no match for it.
This is a great opportunity, and the dominatrix will certainly not miss it.
A gloomy look flashed across its face. It stood up and raised its right hand just a little. A steel fork fell into its hand and stabbed Lupine hard.
Lupine calmly took out his wand and shouted: "Appear quickly!"
A ray of white light hit the dominatrix at an extremely fast speed, and the thrown steel fork was blocked by Lupin's iron armor spell. The white light burned the dominatrix's body like a raging fire, and it roared angrily. It was originally kind and kind.
His face became hideous and indistinguishable from the pain.
When the white light dissipated, Joel and others discovered that the dominatrix's body had changed: its body was much larger, nearly as high as the ceiling, its two arms were slender and white, its figure was voluptuous, and its old face had become radiant.
Smooth, a little cinnabar between the eyebrows adds a touch of charm.
She is a beauty, but her height is a bit too tall. According to Joel's visual inspection, only Yao Ming can match her.
Its right arm was holding a steel fork with a cold light, as if it were catching Yun Tu.
Lupine was not at all worried about the steel fork that had expanded much more than before, and even took time to explain to the students, "Yaksha has two forms, and the 'Quick Appearance' spell can make it reveal its original form. This
Under such circumstances, Yasha is extremely aggressive..."
"Can't we directly attack her body in human form?" Qiu Zhang asked, raising her hand.
"It's best not to," Lu Ping Kankan dodged the steel fork in Yaksha's hand. Now there was a mess near the classroom platform. "Even if you kill its human form, it will still turn into Yaksha form and attack you. In other words
In other words, the human form is just a layer of their skin."
Seeing that Lu Ping didn't take her seriously, the beautiful Yasha became even more angry. He jumped up and struck down with the steel fork in his hand.
"Petrify them all!" Lupine's petrification spell hit Yasha's slender body. The effect of the spell was not strong. Yasha's body only stiffened for a moment and then recovered, but Lupine wanted to fight for this moment.
He turned around and came to Yasha's side, casting the magic wand in his hand - "Cosipoli!"
The blue spell hit Yaksha, who had just escaped from the petrification spell. Yaksha's movements stopped, and the steel fork in his hand cracked inch by inch, turning into dots of silver light and disappearing into the air. His slender body gradually shrank, shrank... until
It has turned back into the kind-hearted old lady it was before, but now its face is gray and its body is weak.
"Did you see it?" Lupine gasped, conjuring an iron cage and putting Yaksha in it again. "This spell... Cosipoli can make Yaksha transform into the same physical body as a human for 48 hours. During this period, various kinds of things will happen.
Any spell that is effective on humans is effective on Yaksha.”
The students in the audience spontaneously applauded. Compared to Professor Quirrell's cowardice and incompetence and Professor Lockhart's sheep-herding style of teaching, Professor Lupine allowed them to regain the long-lost feeling brought by Professor White.
Joel clapped his hands, feeling that the World Tree in his brain began to sparkle again, and it seemed that there were new adventures waiting for him.
