Weston felt uncomfortable looking at the strong curiosity in the eyes of the two brothers. He laughed awkwardly and replied: "This is the Upside Down Curse! A curse invented by my teacher!"
"your--"
"teacher?"
The twin brothers were even more curious.
"Yes, my teacher!" Weston nodded and praised from the bottom of his heart, "One of the best wizards in the world! If you have played 'League of Legends', you must know him!
"
After three years, League of Legends has long become the most popular game in the world. Although Quidditch has not completely declined, in comparison, it is not as popular as it used to be!
According to rumors, the Ministry of Magic of various countries will jointly host the first "League of Legends World Cup" competition! Although Weston doesn't know whether this is true or not, he does make a lot of money by licensing and portraying new heroes.
Too few Galleons!
This is also the reason why Weston told Mr. Delacour that he is rich. His family fortune is not thin, and it is sustainable. As long as the League of Legends does not close down for a day, he will always make money.
"Lower your head!" Hagrid's shout brought Weston back from his thoughts. He smiled slightly and decided not to think about it so much for the time being.
After passing this bridge opening, my eyes suddenly opened up...
The bright jade-like moon hung in the sky, and the silver moonlight shone on this simple yet majestic castle. The night and the land merged together, making it seem as if the entire castle was floating in the air.
"so beautiful......"
A little girl on the same boat sighed softly, but it broke the silence at this moment and brought back the minds of the shocked students.
"boom--"
The scene exploded in an instant. The students were chirping and discussing loudly with each other, and they were making gestures from time to time. It was obvious that they were all extremely excited.
Even after watching it more than once, I was still shocked! Weston sighed.

"Dong dong dong"
"Professor McGonagall, all the new students are here!" Hagrid reported to McGonagall, then bowed slightly and left.
Before leaving, Hagrid winked at Weston, who smiled and nodded in response.
"Welcome to Hogwarts!" Professor McGonagall was still so serious and looked so intimidating that the little wizards didn't dare to speak for a moment.
Mag nodded with satisfaction, glanced across the crowd, stayed on Weston for a while, then moved away, and began her routine speech.
"You will walk through this door later to gather with other students, but before you take a seat in the restaurant, the school will assign you a house. The houses are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw.
And Slytherin."
"During your schooling, the school is like your home. Your outstanding performance will add points to the college, while violations will cause the college to deduct points."
"At the end of each semester, the college with the highest score will win the College Cup. This will be a supreme honor!"
"Now, stay where you are and wait for the sorting ceremony to begin! If I were you, I would check my clothes carefully!"
After saying the last sentence, Mag looked at Weston again, then turned and entered the hall.
Maybe Mag's intimidation was really enough, the little wizards all pursed their lips tightly, and the twin brothers stayed where they were, making Weston laugh secretly.
After waiting for about half an hour, Professor McGonagall came back. Looking at the quiet little wizards, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Now, stand in a line and come in with me!"
The door of the auditorium opened, and a familiar yet unfamiliar scene came into Weston's eyes. Unlike other little wizards who were amazed, his eyes were more filled with nostalgia and expectation...
After all the students entered the auditorium, McGonagall waved her magic wand and the door closed silently.
She walked to the podium and said something to Dumbledore. Dumbledore nodded, and then she took down the two things that had been placed on the table.
The two items were a simple piece of thick parchment and the other was an old, patched and dirty hat.
Mag placed the hat on the small bench in the middle of the auditorium, and then opened the parchment in his hand.
While Mag was preparing, in the surprised eyes of the little wizards, the hat suddenly twisted left and right, slowly opened its mouth, and began to sing:
"That was a thousand years ago,
I am still a carefree hat,
Ever since I met the great dueling master,
The hat turned into a magic hat.
The master has three best partners,
Together they built this school,
They each have their own ideas,
So there are four colleges.
Gryffindor has outstanding courage,
Ravenclaw values wisdom more,
Hufflepuff is always tolerant,
What Slytherin wants is glory.
Take me with you, I am a magic hat that can never go wrong!
Believe me, although you may not get what you want!"
After singing, amid exclamations and applause, Hat bowed around and then stopped talking.
Is that the Sorting Hat, known as another of the highest achievements of alchemy?! Weston was also amazed to see the Sorting Hat perform for the first time.
According to the book "Facing the Truth: A First Look at Alchemical Achievements in Ancient and Modern Times" written by master alchemist Barak Couch, the Sorting Hat at Hogwarts is not only a magical item, it is also a taboo item.
Human beings cannot create life out of thin air! This is one thing that any alchemist is sure of. The reason is that no alchemist has the ability to solve the most important component of life - the soul!
However, the Sorting Hat is a magical item with a soul! As for how its soul was born, no one knows.
It is precisely because of the Sorting Hat that its creator Rowena Ravenclaw became recognized as the wisest person in the wizarding world!
It's amazing! Weston is a little jealous. It's not that he's jealous of the Sorting Hat, but he's jealous of the knowledge in it! God's authority to create life! Who wouldn't be jealous!
It's a pity that there is no way to study it! Weston thought regretfully.
The Sorting Hat felt an inexplicable chill and couldn't help but shudder.
Weston did not notice that the eyes of several people on the rostrum were staring at him, and they also noticed his expression.
Dumbledore couldn't help but smile a little, and whispered something to Snape with a smile. Snape was stunned, and then gave Weston a meaningful look.
Weston did not see their exchange. At this time, his attention was focused on the front, and the sorting ceremony began...
