Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy Chapter 302: Old courses, new teachers, new experiences (7k super large

Early the next morning, Chang Chu, who was neatly dressed, walked down slowly from the Ravenclaw common room in West Tower, and prepared to have breakfast in the hall on the first floor.

On the way down, Changchu didn't feel anything unusual. It wasn't until she walked into the hall that she realized the inexplicable empty chairs around her, the meals that did not match the usual tastes, and the quiet dining atmosphere around her, did she realize the one who was supposed to be sitting next to her Boy, this time is no longer in school.

Shaking his head vigorously, he often threw the figure of the tall, thin, handsome boy with a pair of beautiful black eyes out of his mind.

What are you thinking about? She complained to herself secretly, this was the first day she left Wright! How can this be done? If you let him know about this, you have to laugh at you!

But Chang Chu couldn't help but feel a little worried when he thought of Wright's laughter.

At this moment, there was a roar of laughter on the Slytherin long table, awakening Chang Chu's mind. She returned to her senses and looked over there. It was a group of Slytherin students, headed by Draco, mocking the Hermione trio passing by them. (In the hall, the tables of Slytherin and Gryffindor are also close together)

Because the distance is not far away, I can still vaguely hear Draco and the others laughing at the beginning of the day. It was Harry who passed out in a coma on the train yesterday because of a dementor.

But it seems that the three of Hermione and the others were not affected in any way, and even the screams of the Slytherin girl who looked like a poodle didn't stop them.

Waiting for the three of Hermione to sit at the Gryffindor table, Changchu got up and walked towards them.

When she arrived, the twin brother who was also sitting at the dining table had just finished Draco's "return".

"Hey! Changchu! Long time no see!" Sharp-eyed George said hello first.

"I didn't see you one summer vacation. I didn't expect you to be much more beautiful. Seeing your appearance, Wright will definitely laugh so hard you can't find Bei." Fred said with a hippie smile.

"Don't you know about this?" Harry couldn't help but interjected, "Changchu, like me, lived in Wright's house until the beginning of school."

"What?" the twins said in unison.

"Don't blame them for not knowing about this, Harry." Chang Chu sat down next to Hermione. "When Hermione and I went to Wright, Fred and his family didn't happen to be there. Did you go on vacation in Egypt? When we went to the Broken Cauldron Bar, we didn’t meet it head-on.

"You are right!" George stroked his chin and nodded in agreement.

"But speaking of Wright, why is he not with you today?" Fred asked.

"Wright, didn't he go to Bubbaston as an exchange student?" Ron said. He looked at the suspicious glances from his two brothers and couldn't help but amplify his voice. "On the train yesterday, Chang Chu That's it!" It seemed that he was stung by the stronger and stronger sense of suspicion, and he lowered his voice again, "It seems like this? Bubston? Boothbatton?"

"It's Boothbarton, that's right." Changchu looked at Ron, who was inadequate, and said calmly, "Wright has gone to France. He went there yesterday after we boarded the train." /

"Wait! Didn't he just slip away after we told Wright about the extent of the Gemini Devil's exploration and decryption?" George's eyes widened in astonishment.

"If you remember correctly, it should be like this." Chang Chu said.

"This is not enough!" Fred complained, "He went to France and didn't tell us! I heard that Boothbatten was a girls' school!"

"Girls' school?" Hermione raised her head, looked away from her new curriculum, looked at the twin brother and said, "Who do you guys say that Boothbatten is a girls' school?"

"It seems like everyone said that." George shrugged, "Booth Barton, a magic school in France, all the students in it are girls in blue lady clothes!"

"You may have a wrong memory." Chang Chu said, looking at George.

"You must have remembered it wrong," Hermione recalled, and said, "Busbarton could never be a girls’ school, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense. As far as I know, it’s the "Europe Three According to the book "Introduction to Famous Schools", although Busbarton is a French school, due to its geographical location, it will also recruit other wizards from Spain, Portugal, Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands."

"So, if Boothbatten is a girls’ school, it doesn’t make sense unless another magic school, that is, Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, is a boys’ school." Hermione said as if to conclude. .

"Darmstrand?" Ron suddenly tilted the floor. "It's the genius seeker—sorry, Harry, this time I’m not talking about you—Viktor Krum Your school?"

"Yes, Ronnie." Fred joked and bumped Ron's arm. "I always thought you were a big fan of the Charlie Cannons! I didn't expect you to secretly climb the wall. ."

"Who said that!" Ron blushed instantly, "Climbing the wall--"

He paused again, as if hesitating to say what the following sentence should be said, "Viktor Krum!" He repeated the name, as if it gave him confidence, so He said loudly, "That's Victor Krum! No Quidditch player would dislike him!"

"At least I don't like it." Hermione seemed to be holding up the bar, or just a lesson to Ron's sudden crooked building. "Even before this breakfast, I didn't even know that there was another named Victor. The people of El Krum."

Fred and George started to squabble around in an instant.

"Ronnie! Did you hear that? She is provoking!"

"Ms. Know-it-all is talking now! She doesn't like Quidditch! This may be the only place you can beat her!"

"Fight back! Ronnie! Ronald!"

"Don't hesitate like a coward!"

Chang Chu also smiled and watched the excitement. To be honest, she didn't know that there was another talented seeker named Krum, perhaps the player who suddenly became popular this summer.

Ron's face rose redder than before, and even the roots of his ears were hot. He stared at Hermione angrily, "That's just because you don't like Quidditch! Just like your stupid one. Cats don’t like my splotches!"

"The matter we are talking about has nothing to do with Crookshanks at all!" Hermione said grumpily.

"Then stop talking about Quidditch and Krum," Chang Chu comforted her arm around Hermione's waist, "Aren't you going to take a new class today?"

At this moment, Hagrid walked into the auditorium. He was still wearing the moleskin coat he had worn all the time, and he was carrying a **** corpse of a polecat.

"Good morning! Harry! And you all!" Hagrid said in an enthusiastic tone, "I'm a professor! I will take my class as soon as I have lunch! I am five o'clock in the morning. I got up and prepared everything that should be prepared! I checked it inside and out three or four times..."

By the way, Harry has always wanted to know who gave him the suit he was wearing when he first saw Hagrid. It was really appropriate! To be less polite, Harry felt that Hagrid now looked like a primitive man drinking blood and never shaved his beard and made clothes out of animal skins.

But anyway, Harry wouldn't tell Hagrid these things. Maybe Hagrid just liked the outfit he was wearing now?

Looking at Hagrid's inexplicable excitement, Changchu suddenly felt a little uneasy. After Hagrid walked away, she looked around at the people around her, "Should all of us take the course of protecting magical creatures?" "

"As long as a normal-minded student, no one would refuse such a reasonable and legal field activity." Fred said, "I mean, everyone loves to protect the magical biology class."

"The Protecting Magical Creatures class is for us to better understand all kinds of magical creatures and learn how to protect them. It is not a field activity class." Hermione retorted righteously. .

"Yeah, yeah, you are right." Fred said nonchalantly. He didn't want to be like that idiot Ronnie. The little girl at this age is so annoying, he doesn't want to be troubled by Hermione, he might as well make a few more voices to imitate candy.

Hermione was a little angry, but she had nothing to do with Fred's old fritters, so she had to sullenly eat slices of bread.

Slowly, the students rushed to the first class of the new semester, and there were fewer people in the auditorium.

There is also a class in the first morning in the early morning, so the three of them stood up from the dining table with Hermione, and after bidding farewell to Fred and the two, they walked out of the hall together.

"What was your first class in the morning?" Chang Chu asked.

"Divination lesson," Hermione replied, "Professor Trelawney's divination lesson."

"Oh." Chang Chu glanced at the trio with sympathy, "Then I wish you all success in class."

Harry wanted to ask Changchu why he had such an expression, but the distance to the divination classroom on the top of the North Tower was indeed not short, and the time was not so abundant, so he had to give up asking about it.

The poor little savior obviously didn't know that, ten minutes later, he was about to usher in a real verbal attack that opened his mouth.

To paraphrase the prophecy that Harry himself once made based on the book "Pull the Fog and Look at the Future" based on the great magic stick book: "There is a crooked cross-shaped tea dregs in the teacup... There is also an image Something about the sun... So, you will suffer, but feel very happy..."

However, Chang Chu didn't know about it. She just came to the metamorphosis classroom according to the schedule, preparing to take her own class.

Compared with the third grade, the fourth grade curriculum has not changed much.

Of course, this is a very unique Hogwarts. Although the course schedule has not changed, the content of the class will change every year, especially the Defence Against the Dark Arts class that the teacher changes every year.

Just this afternoon, there will be a Defence Against the Dark Arts class at the beginning of the day, but I don’t know if Professor Lupin, who performed well on the train, has the teaching ability that does not match his appearance. .

Changchu didn't have much expectations. After all, he has been used to being scammed, but in any case, a wizard who can call God to protect him, how can he not be too bad, right?

After all, Wright once said that the patron saint curse is a very profound magic.

Huh? Why did you think of him again?

……

After finishing the morning class and having lunch, Changchu walked into the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom on the third floor with the dark-faced classmates in a calm mood.

For ordinary students, the way to judge a professor's teaching ability is very simple and very rough, and that is to look at his appearance. It's hard to believe that a wizard who doesn't pay much attention to appearance (or is very poor) has a very high level of strength.

In addition, this is the first class of the new school year. Most of the Kitty Hawks have never been in contact with Lupin before, so they don't know his true strength.

But looking at Lupin's shabby robe, many students are already mentally prepared for this year's Defence Against the Dark Arts class again.

When the students came to the classroom, Lupin had not yet come. Like all students in the world, he took out the basic learning tools: textbooks, paper and pen, and put them on the table. Then everyone started Endless small talk.

From the beginning, I started to observe this classroom.

The hobbies of every Defence Against the Dark Arts class professor are different.

The first-year professor, Derwent Simplin, likes to gather all the students of the same grade together, so this is a clean and huge lecture hall, and there are no pretentious accessories.

The professor of the second year was Quirinas Quirrell. He was a very strange wizard. He stammered and didn’t have real materials. He also liked to put a lot of spices in the classroom (probably to hide the smell of garlic). ), and a variety of travel souvenirs. (Many students think those things are Muggle souvenirs because they have no magic power)

The third-year professor is the famous writer Guidro Lockhart, a blond middle-aged man who likes to boast and push the limelight, so his personal self-portrait and a huge pair are everywhere in the classroom. White Peruvian fang keel.

This year's Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom is much simpler than before.

On a limited number of tables, there are some ancient monsters covered in glass. From their appearance, you can see that they are definitely produced in the wizarding world, and they may also carry a hidden malicious curse: black bust , Rusty ancient shields, and even a specimen of a fang fish with its teeth and claws.

At least it looks decent. Chang Chu secretly evaluated himself.

Five minutes before class, Lupin finally walked into the classroom. He was still as ragged as before, but his complexion was obviously much healthier than before, at least he was no longer thin and weak.

"Good afternoon, classmates." Lu Ping looked around the classroom, his eyes stopped at Changchu for a second or two, "Please put all textbooks, paper and pen in your schoolbag. Today is new In the first class of the semester, in order to make it easier for me to determine the future teaching plan, I need to do a more comprehensive test of your magic level."

The expressions of many students immediately became excited. Someone seemed to have said this three years ago. The quality of the Defence Against the Dark Arts class that year was unexpectedly high.

"So, today is a practical class." Lu Ping then said what many students wanted to hear, "Everyone just needs to take out the magic wand."

The students put away the textbooks, and some students exchanged excited eyes with each other.

Practical lessons! This is what the students really want!

"Okay," Lupin saw that everyone was ready, and said, "You all follow me now."

The students got up from their chairs one after another and followed Lupin out of the classroom.

A crowd of people walked through the long corridor and climbed up the stairs twice to arrive at the fifth floor of the castle where students rarely appear. This floor is mostly abandoned old classrooms, so students hardly Will come here. Of course, except for some thrill-seeking adventurers.

Lu Ping took everyone and stopped outside the door of a large abandoned classroom on the back of the fifth floor.

He opened the door and everyone walked in together.

This is a very large room. The four walls look dark and there are no portraits of magic activities. Old school desks and old wooden chairs are piled up in the back row of the classroom, and it looks like there were people at one time. Specially dealt with this room, because all the tables and chairs are all matching.

On the podium is a clean blackboard without a letter written on it. Since no one has been here for a long time, a thin layer of dust has fallen on the blackboard. Next to the podium, a large black wooden cabinet has been erected. When the students walked in, it suddenly trembled like a convulsion.

Several courageous students took a few steps back in shock.

"Don't worry, classmates." Lupin said calmly, "There is a Bogut in this cabinet."

The few students who know Bogut’s true details relax, such as Changchu; but more people become more nervous.

"Bogut likes dark and enclosed spaces," Lupin seemed to frown with a headache. "Closet, the void under the bed, the damp cupboard under the sink, it's all possible. It stands to reason, the castle There should be a lot of Bogut’s on the fifth floor, but it seems that this place has been cleaned up not long ago. It took me a long time to find this one, and it was a waste of the boss’s effort."

"So I hope you don't break it, otherwise, the students behind may not need it." Lupin said with a smile.

"But professor, why did you get Bogut here?" a bold student asked.

"Good question." Lupin said, "For students in different grades, I naturally prepared different tests. For the first and second grade students, magical creatures are still a bit dangerous, so I prepared a written test; three The fourth-grade students have been exposed to at least two electives, so I chose Bogut, a kind of basically harmless but very suitable magical creature for the test; as for the higher ages, there are other methods."

"So, you mean, we and the third grade students will use this Bogut for testing?"

"If it hadn't been blown into smoke by your laughter, yes." Lupin blinked at the student.

"Given your level, let me briefly talk about Bogut." Lupin said, "Bogut is a creature that can see through the human heart. After it sees through your heart, it will deform. , Becomes what you fear most."

"But it’s not difficult to deal with Bogut. The special spell is "funny." This spell will make Bogut the most funny look. Maybe someone is afraid of spiders. All of his legs are eliminated, making Bogut a spider without legs, unable to move."

"The more people there are, the better Bogut can deal with it, because it doesn't know why."

"But remember, what really kills Bogut is laughter. When you laugh, Bogut explodes into ten thousand plumes of smoke and disappears."

"So, in case you see a Bogut that really makes people laugh later, don't laugh too loudly, or I will have to find another Bogut." Lupin laughed Talking.

After Lupin taught everyone Bogut's expulsion spell several times, he began to let everyone deal with this Bogut.

Eddie Camitchell passed...Terry Traverse passed...

A few more students passed, and finally it was Changchu's turn.

"Miss Changchu, right?" Lu Ping gestured to Changchu, "It's your turn, come forward."

Changchu took a deep breath, squeezed the wand again, and took a step forward to face the Bogut who had just turned into a giant clown-like doll.

She was thinking, in this world, what is she most afraid of?

The Quidditch game lost? Mouse or bug? Dark or cold?

Or, Dementor?

One, two, three...

With a snap, the original clown doll disappeared, and Bogut spun in the air at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

One second has passed;

Three seconds have passed;

Ten seconds have passed...

Half a minute later, Bogut was still spinning there, and he didn't see the meaning of stopping for half a minute.

Lu Ping had to stop, he expelled Bogut into the cabinet and looked at Chang Chu with a weird look: "Miss Chang Chu, I don't know, have you, uh, learned, uh, Occlumency? "

"Occlumency?" Chang Chu looked at Lu Ping blankly, "No."

"Then why Bogut can't detect your inner thoughts?" Lupin felt even more strange. He could see that Chang Chu was not lying at this time, so why?

Changchu stood there thinking for a while, then she rolled up her sleeves, took a small lock bracelet from her wrist, and put it in the space expansion pocket. That bracelet was given by Wright before. It was called a dark heart lock, which could prevent the memory from being spied by other people. She couldn't help but took this outdated bracelet.

"Professor Lu Ping, I think it should be possible now." Chang Chu said to Lu Ping.

"Really?" Lupin asked.

Chang Chu nodded silently.

Lupin frowned.

"Everyone, step back a little bit and leave a larger space for Miss Changchu," he said.

The students did so as they said.

Lu Ping took another look at Chang Chu and slammed the closet door open.

A rotten, gloomy, cold-lighted claw came out of the cabinet, and the Bogut Dementor shrouded in the black robe, with irresistible chill and horror, slammed into normalcy. Chu's direction rushed towards him, his wide-open mouth let out bursts of breathing like drowning...

The students took a big step back in horror.

"Let's go!" Lu Ping opened his hands and ran towards Changchu's side with a roar.

"Holy guard!" A small girl's voice sounded, but not weaker than Lupin's voice, and a large, shining silver mist burst from the tip of the willow wand, blocking the dementor from the outside. .

Changchu has a serious face, holding her magic wand in her hand, she takes a step forward resolutely.

The patron saint silver mist accompanied the master's will, forcing the dementor to retreat until he drove it back into the cabinet.

Relaxed, Lupin walked to the cabinet and locked Bogut inside.

"Nice job! Miss Changchu! Nice job!" Lu Ping's voice was full of undisguised appreciation. He looked at Changchu cheerfully, his eyes cordial and gentle.

"Huh!" Changchu breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Professor."

"Eat some of this," Lupin walked to Chang Chu's side, took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to her, "It works."

"Thank you~IndoMTL.com~ I thanked you for accepting chocolate at the beginning. She has already had an experience, and naturally knows how much chocolate will play a role at this time.

"Now, Miss Changchu, you have to sit and rest for a while." Lupin said without a doubt, "Your performance today is good enough, Ravenclawga is very good."

While eating chocolate, Chang Chu slowly walked to the side and sat down, watching the students behind continue to deal with Bogut. The students looked at her in awe, leaving a wide path for her.

"Wright, have you seen it? Without you, I can still deal with these dangers well." Chang Chu meditated.

Soon, this Defence Against the Dark Arts class came to an end. It seems that because of the influence of the beginning, most of the students behind will turn Bogut into a dementor, which makes Lupin frantic. Fortunately, this class ended very successfully.

"Classmates, I don’t know if you are still satisfied with my professor." Lupin shut the dying Bogut into the cabinet and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "But I hope you can be This course is kept confidential, okay? Don’t forget, third grade students will also use Bogut to test."

"Of course!"

"We will keep it confidential for you!"

"Simply satisfied!"

The students rushed to talk immediately, and even the students who had been affected by the Bogut Dementor just now clapped vigorously.

"That's all right." Lupin said lightly. "Now let's set up the homework. Next Monday, just hand in a report on Bogut. You can control the number of words and length yourself. "

"Now, the first class is over."
