Chapter 271 Rice: Hufflepuff is very suitable for experiments

Seeing Helga's insistence, Les no longer stopped her, but just told her that if she really didn't have a chance, she should sneak into the castle first and find a place to "hack" her.

Helga: I don’t know where to start. A few months ago she was one of the founders of Hogwarts, and now she has to look at other people’s faces even to work in the school.

Just by looking at Helga's face, Les knew what she was thinking, so he said in a joking tone: "As long as you reveal your true identity, Dumbledore will definitely abdicate. After all, he is the legendary wizard. Helga Hufflepuff!"

Helga glanced at him.

"If there ever comes a day, I will first pierce the vests of you and Rowena, and directly realize the co-management of the four houses in one step." She said coldly. Since neither Old Viper nor Old Raven had any intention of disclosing their identities, she would not disclose them either, lest it become too embarrassing in the end.

This is the herd mentality.

"Don't worry, there will most likely be vacancies next year. You can try to teach students Defense Against the Dark Arts." Les said confidently.

Hufflepuff: Huh?

When Les told Hufflepuff that the Defense Against the Dark Arts faculty at Hogwarts was "cursed", Hufflepuff was speechless: Salazar, how old are you to believe this? this? How can a wizard of your level believe such a thing? Has your mind become younger as your body becomes younger?

She looked at Les carefully and felt that her guess was quite reasonable. The physical state did affect a person's mental state.

After thinking about this, Helga nodded perfunctorily, assuming an "Ah, yes, yes, yes" attitude.

Les was not in a hurry, anyway, Helga would believe in the existence of the "curse" in a few years - he didn't believe it at first, but after investigating the experiences of previous Defense Against the Dark Arts professors in the past ten years, he I think that Voldemort might have actually invented a magical curse.

Curses are one of the categories of curses. They can be anything as small as causing hives all over the body, or as big as causing someone to die on the spot after touching the medium. However, most of these curses are directed at a specific person, or Attached to something real.

Voldemort's curse had nothing to do with either. He neither cursed a specific person nor attached his curse to a specific thing - he cursed "the person who became the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts." An abstract concept, the medium is the teaching position of "Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts".

This is very counter-intuitive and very unmagical.

Rice sometimes wonders, if another course is defined as "Defense Against the Dark Arts", or the original Defense Against the Dark Arts is renamed, will the curse be transferred? For example, if the headmaster of Hogwarts renames "Defense Against the Dark Arts" as "Self-Defense," will the professor of "Self-Defense" still be cursed?

Thinking of this, he had an idea and decided to encourage Hufflepuff to do an experiment.

"Helga -" Les' words came to his lips and he swallowed them again - he had a more wonderful idea: Helga Hufflepuff is strong enough, can she withstand this... What about "curse"?

He originally wanted Hufflepuff to go to Dumbledore to change the name of the course after becoming Professor of Defense against Darkness, but now he changed his mind and decided to let Hufflepuff try to break this A pattern that has lasted for more than ten years.

Let's see if it's the fate of an old friend or Voldemort's curse that makes him stronger!

If Helga knew what was going on in Les's head, she would throw him out of the window, stuff him in the sand, and bury him in the ground.

But Les is also helpless: the best candidate for this kind of experiment is Godric, but he can't be contacted now!

"What's the matter?" Hufflepuff couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw Salazar stopped talking after calling her name.

"You need to spend more time preparing. Over the past thousand years, the content of magic teaching has changed a lot." Rice changed his words.

Hearing this, Helga smiled: Who is she? What kind of situation has she never seen before? Among the four founders, she devotes more energy to teaching. She feels that she really doesn’t need to make any preparations. Now she can just go to the classroom to teach.

"In today's magical world, no one understands the flow of magic power - no one teaches it, and no one learns it. It has just been lost."

Hufflepuff: "Huh?!"

She was extremely shocked: How come the little wizard a thousand years later didn't even learn how to flow magic?

"This science has been eliminated. Modern wizards have really found a great substitute." Les gave Helga a brief introduction to the development of magic.

Helga was silent: the magic spell is so convenient, it is not unreasonable for the magic fluidity to be lost. But I don’t understand the flow of magic power, so trying to understand the realm is really a fantasy. And wizards without a domain can only be regarded as second-rate wizards after all - so the upper limit of wizards in the magic world is now second-rate?

In short, after learning that the students didn't even understand the flow of magic power, her thoughts were shaken. She felt that she really needed to prepare lessons well and figure out what schools were teaching now.

Hufflepuff has no intention of bucking the trend and launching a full-scale teaching of magic. In her mind, there must be its own reasons for a knowledge to be lost.

And she believed that Old Viper and Old Raven must have found their own solution - she didn't believe that these two people were still at a loss for such a simple matter two years after waking up.

"Your two little apprentices must understand the flow of magic, right?" Hufflepuff asked tentatively.

"Of course." Les couldn't help but show off his students in front of his old friends.

Hufflepuff selectively ignored the second half of his words and only listened to the main point: Rice would let those students who were talented enough learn the flow of magic.

This is indeed a good method. The disadvantage of magic flow is that it is too difficult, and the advantage is that the upper limit is extremely high. Letting a few geniuses study this subject is indeed a great solution, but...

Helga glanced at Les. How could he judge whether a child's talent was "good enough"? There is no such thing as a crystal ball in the magic world that a child can use to reveal his or her talent by just putting his or her hand up.

Those two children are still blessed by their last names, right?

Hufflepuff felt that she still had to find her own way - she couldn't be like Salazar.

However, it may not be impossible to make such a crystal ball. Helga felt that the inspiration in her heart burst out like spring water. She decided to go back to school and start researching how to make the crystal ball she needed.

"Would you like a cup?" Les did not continue to expand their topic on business, but poured a cup of coffee for Helga.

"grateful."

Amid the aroma of coffee, the conversation gradually turned to daily chatter.
