Chapter 127 Don't Disturb the Sleeping Dragon
Back to the bedroom.
Daphne and Astoria are both in their room.
"Sherin, in the name of Greengrass, I have called on some junior students who are close friends with my family. They are all from Slytherin. The prototype of the Sleeping Dragon Club has been established." Daphne first reported.
Astoria interjected, "I'm fine here, and Hestia and Flora of the Carlo family also agreed to join."
Xie Lin attached great importance to the twin sisters Hestia and Flora. They had the blood of the Carlo family, and the Carlo family was also one of the 28 sacred pure-blood families.Moreover, the magic wands used by the two come from the same source of magical animal materials. If they work together to cast spells, they will be able to produce a bonus effect of one plus one greater than two.
This kind of bonus effect is very astonishing. Historically, the Boot brothers, the founders of Ilvermorny in North America, once teamed up. When the two were only 16 years old, they used the same magic wand to explode with strength enough to rival the famous black witch Gormley Gaunt.
Thinking of this, Schelling couldn't help imagining the scene of Harry Potter and Voldemort teaming up to fight against the enemy.
"Good job!" Schelling asked, "How many people are there in the organization now?"
"According to your instructions, I haven't contacted the senior students for the time being, and even our class didn't let them know, so the main force is the third and second grade students." Daphne said.
Senior student Xie Lin intends to hand it over to Narelle of the Wakanda family, but Narelle's loyalty and ability are still being tested, and he doesn't want to attract the attention of the Ghost Club, so Xie Lin plans to put aside the matter of recruiting them.
The students in the same class were because Schelling noticed Draco's abnormality. Before the matter became clear, Schelling didn't want his plan to be exposed to their sight, not to mention that Blaise's mother was still his enemy!
As for the first-year students, they have just entered school, are not yet familiar with the daily life of the school, and may also have insufficient awareness of confidentiality, so Schelling will not consider it for the time being.
“4年级的学生只有你、我、莫瑞三个人，3年级的学生有6人，而2年级学生包括阿斯托利亚在内有10人。”总共19人，比谢林预期的还要好。
Schelling carefully read the list that Daphne gave him, and was very satisfied with her ability to handle affairs. He praised her and asked, "Is there anything else? When will we hold the first all-staff meeting?"
Daphne frowned, seeming to organize her words before she said, "Scherin, I wonder if you've heard of the student organization 'Ghost Club'?"
Xie Lin nodded, it seemed that even Daphne knew about the Ghost Club.
Daphne said: "This organization is very mysterious. I don't know much about it. I just inadvertently heard about the existence of this organization when I was recruiting people. I heard that your brother was invited... As for whether he accepted it, I don't know."
"As for the matter of the Ghost Club, you two should be clear about it. I will mention it to Murray. You don't need to worry about their affairs for the time being... They need to hide more than us, so they will definitely not do anything to us on the surface... We just need to be careful."
Schelling doesn't want to have any conflicts with the Ghost Society for the time being. It's okay to deal with Lestrange and Selwyn's group, but if it's against the Ghost Society whose strength is unknown, it is very unwise in the early stages of establishing the organization.
Moreover, according to Xie Lin's previous life, he was used to Shuangwen's routine, hitting the younger ones is likely to attract the old ones.Behind the Ghost Club, there is the Walpurgis Knights who can use two generations of Dark Lords as spearmen!
In the following time, Xie Lin devoted himself to studying the "Book of the Ancient God Dragon", beauty potions, cultivation of gnomes, and advanced use of the Iron Armor Curse.
Time flies, and soon came November 10th.
The Sleeping Dragon Club held its first meeting in Newt's suitcase space. The new members were full of curiosity about this mysterious space, and they also had more admiration for Schelling's magic.
The first is a self-introduction ceremony to let the members get acquainted with each other, and then Daphne reads out the pre-designed charter and regulations, the most important of which is that the existence of the organization cannot be disclosed to a third party, and those who violate the rules will be severely punished. Sleeping Dragon Club will operate as a completely secret underground student organization.
Then Daphne read out the three main purposes of the Sleeping Dragon organization:
First, increase the cohesion of the organization. Every member of the senior grade is obliged to give advice to the members of the lower grade in the organization. Members of the same grade should help each other, communicate with each other, and maintain a good interactive relationship.
Second, the organization will regularly hold duel training to cultivate the actual combat capabilities of the members. This event will be personally supervised by Xie Lin - at this point, many members could not help but cheer;
Third, resource sharing. The organization needs to pool the power of everyone to build a shared library in the suitcase space, so that every member can contribute and share knowledge. Currently, the members are all from Slytherin, and almost all of them come from a wizarding family background. They can copy the family library to make contributions.When members of Muggle family background appear in the future, they can conduct research for the organization, or complete the organization's tasks, and there will be a fair charter to calculate their contribution value in exchange for equal resources in the library.
There is no need to worry about the starting resources of the shared library. The collection of Schelling himself and the Greengrass family-even if some private collections that are not suitable for publicity are deducted, there are more than 500 books.
Schelling referred to Hermione's method of creating Dumbledore's Army in the original book, and awarded each member a gold gallon with a changeable spell as a membership card. Whenever members are called, whether it is an all-hands meeting or actual combat training, the gold coins will change to show the time and place of the meeting.
After finishing these, the Sleeping Dragon Club officially adjourned.
[The "Protagonist Force" Sleeping Dragon Club was established! 】
The next day, before dawn, Schelling got up and explored in the castle dungeon—the target kitchen!
Sherin came out of the Slytherin lounge, walked through a wide stone corridor, and found pictures of various foods adorning the surrounding walls.
"Good luck." Schelling quickly found a large portrait of a huge silver bowl full of fruit.
Xie Lin lightly touched the big green pear in the silver bowl. The pear squirmed, giggled, and suddenly turned into a big green doorknob. He stretched out his hand to grab the door and pulled it, and he came to the legendary kitchen.
The kitchen was as large as the auditorium above, and there were many tableware on the surrounding cupboards. There were also four long wooden tables in the auditorium, and these tables were placed in exactly the same positions as the four college tables in the upper auditorium.
Some food has been placed on the table, which should be the students' breakfast. When it's meal time, the house elves will use magic to transfer the food to the corresponding table above.
"Sir, what's the matter?" An elf spotted Xie Lin and trotted towards him.
"The restaurant wasn't open yet, so I came to the kitchen to have a look." Schelling smiled politely at them.
"Come with me, please, sir." The house-elf took Schelling by the hand, and led him to sit at the table, and six house-elfs hurried up, carrying a large silver tray with a jug of milk, ham, fried eggs, toast and salad, and pumpkin porridge.
"Thank you, little ones." Schelling poured himself half a glass of milk and asked after a delicious meal, "This is my first time here, can I walk around and explore here?"
"Of course, sir!" the house-elf nodded hurriedly.
What Schelling is most interested in is the food freezer. After all, wizards don't use Muggle refrigerators, and as far as Schelling knows, there is no magic spell for cooling items in the wizarding world. The so-called "Freezing Spell" is actually a spell that freezes the target and stops the movement.
(Note: This book translates Freezing Spell as a fixed spell, but People's Society translates it as a freezing spell)
Schelling walked around slowly, looking around.
There are hundreds of elves in the kitchen. They skillfully wave their long fingers, command kitchen knives, spatulas, spoons, and stew pots with magic, and carry out various cooking procedures in an orderly manner.
At the end of the kitchen, Schelling finally walked to a small room dedicated to storing ingredients. On the door of the room was a rune charm engraved--Scheering recognized this rune as "Isa", which means "ice" and "stillness".
The magic talisman exudes extremely powerful magic fluctuations.
At this time, Xie Lin had already mastered Gu Runi's spellcasting, and he knew very well the difficulty of Gu Runi's spellcasting.
Xie Lin himself has rich and profound knowledge of ancient runes.Even he spent so much time and energy to master such an ancient runic talisman as "Guardian"—from the first contact with the Silver Spear test level, to when he was helping Astoria expel the curse, It can only display a semi-finished Guruni magic.
It was not until the moment when Lockhart blew himself up that Schelling managed to visualize the magic in desperation, completing the entire ancient runic spellcasting process. This achievement may seem amazing today, but in fact he only mastered a single ancient runic magic talisman in the sea of talismans.
It is said that all wizards in the Middle Ages knew how to cast spells in Guruni, which made him full of admiration and yearning for the wizarding world of that era.
Whether it is the four founders of Hogwarts, or the three Peverell brothers who invented the three artifacts of the god of death, their use of ancient runic charms can be said to be superb, and Schelling himself is incomparable.Whether it is the death invisibility cloak or the door of the kitchen refrigerator, it is undoubtedly amazing that such powerful fluctuations of magic power can still be emitted after nearly 1000 years, and it is also the goal that Schelling will pursue in the future.
Schelling opened the door and walked in.
The moment Xie Lin stepped into the freezer room, the "Isa" magic talisman emitted a dazzling white light, turning into a pure white light and shooting towards Xie Lin!
Xie Lin knew the power of Guruni's spellcasting, so he didn't dare to take the attack with the Iron Armor Curse.
He raised his right hand and quickly drew the "Eihwaz" rune with his index finger. A phantom of a small palace immediately covered Schelling.
This movement is not small.All the house-elves came running to see what was going on.
Suddenly, the elves pushed away to the left and right, revealing an aisle. A very old-looking house elf approached Xie Lin step by step with a cane, and said in an old voice: "The man in the prophecy, you finally appeared..."
The old elf introduced himself as Guber, and he was the elder with the highest seniority among the more than 100 house-elves in the Hogwarts kitchen. He had lived in Hogwarts like other house-elves since he was born, until the day he was elected elder, he inherited a prophecy from the previous elder.
According to the prophecy, a Hogwarts student will come to the kitchen, trigger the magic above the freezer, and successfully resist it on the spot.
For so many years, there have been as many students breaking into the kitchen as a galaxy of scattered sand, but the person who triggered the magic has never appeared.
In fact, all the students came for the food, and no one showed any interest in anything else in the kitchen.
Gu Bo raised his crutches and released an elf-specific magic towards an inconspicuous corner in the freezer. Suddenly, a stew pot with a simple style but a faint silver glow appeared in the corner.
"People of the prophecy, you are the heir chosen by Hufflepuff, you take this stew pot away, this is Hufflepuff's most cherished collection, when you use it to cook food, It can make food more delicious...”
What?What is this saucepan for?As the young master of the Malfoy family, when did Xie Lin need to cook by himself?Not to mention that he now has three house elves under his command.
As if sensing the disappointment on Schelling's face, Uncle Gu smiled and said, "Don't underestimate this stewpot. As one of the most powerful wizards at that time, Hufflepuff could leave behind such a simple treasure?"
What?Old guy, don't half-talk!
Gu Bo lightly touched a pattern on the front of the stew pot with his fingers, and the stew pot suddenly changed, turning into a crucible!
"As long as a little magic power is injected here, it can become a crucible. If you use it to refine potions, it can increase the success rate of refining and shorten the refining time of potions..." Gu Bo said.
After hearing this, Xie Lin showed a surprised look. For advanced and complex potions such as Compound Potion, Veritaserum, Felix Elixir, etc., there is a high risk of failure even if the potion master does it himself, not to mention the weeks or even months of refining time.If the success rate can be improved and the refining time can be shortened, then the value of this crucible is simply inestimable!
[Hufflepuff's Crucible Obtained! 】
Originally, I wanted to write about the protagonist giving an impassioned speech when the club was established, but after thinking about it, I didn’t need it anymore, the protagonist’s reputation within Slytherin is already high enough.Perhaps this speech can be left to write later when expanding the enrollment of other colleges.
