Chapter 118 Passionate Invitation
The appearance of Professor Dika brought some conversation topics to the peaceful lives of the little wizards.
Especially this professor's course will start in the next school year, which makes many young wizards who are curious or admired about alchemy extremely excited.
pity.
In order to study the secrets of the defense circle of Hogwarts Castle, Dika had long forgotten such trivial matters as attending classes, and threw Robert a book full of various words, asking him to study the language and wait for the right time. After the opportunity, he taught the skills of drawing magic circles, and he never showed his face again.
Robert could only helplessly continue reading books every day.
Occasionally I go to see Charlie.
He has resigned as the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team. The captain of Gryffindor is now Wood. As for Charlie, he is going to the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary to raise dragons as planned.
What surprised Robert was...
The recommendation was written by Hagrid.
Yes, Hagrid is a guy who loves magical creatures, especially dragons.
Although he could not raise dragons himself, his outstanding contribution to the "research on ferocious magical creatures" gained him the favor of the director of the Fire Dragon Sanctuary, who reserved a recommendation quota for him.
Of course, the real reason was that the person in charge graduated from Hogwarts and had a good relationship with Hagrid, the gamekeeper.
Naturally, Robert didn't go to see Charlie to catch a glimpse of the fire dragon. He mainly wanted to ask Charlie to ask his contemporaries if anyone would be willing to work as a clerk for him after graduation.
He plans to open during the holidays.
As we all know, alchemy is a big money burner. If only his parents' inheritance was considered, Robert felt that it might only take him one year to bottom out his coffers.
In his wild thoughts, Robert became distracted.
I always feel like I spent this year just reading books, with nothing more passionate to say at all...
"Robert!" Fred's voice came from a distance, and the first thought in Robert's mind at this time was - well, the passion is here.
The twins walked briskly, bypassing several Hufflepuffs, and quickly came to Robert.
After saying hello to Cedric and the others, they went back to the dormitory together.
"Good afternoon, Fred, George." Robert greeted, "The dinner is about to start, don't you need to prepare?"
"The dinner party is just to announce this year's Academy Cup winner." Fred waved his hands indifferently, "You can tell this kind of thing just by looking at the hourglass. They are the Slytherin guys. Really, we have tried our best to attract them. It’s in the water.”
George sighed and said, "We were defeated by Slytherin idiots in our second year of enrollment. To be honest, I would rather Ravenclaw was re-elected."
If you put it like this, wouldn't we who were defeated by Slytherin be worse than idiots?
"So?" Robert didn't point this out, but asked casually, "What do you want to do before the holiday?"
"Big move." Fred raised his eyebrows, "Absolutely big move. In order to prevent us from breaking school rules and being deducted points, we specially chose the last day to do it."
"We have read a lot of books for this plan." George made a pleading to read the books.
"More than you can imagine." Fred continued, "I can guarantee you that I will not be so serious even about future exams."
"Now, we are missing you." George mysteriously took out a piece of parchment, "Do you remember this treasure map?"
...Robert looked at these two guys dumbfounded. Is this a treasure map? Isn't it just a graffiti? !
It took a long while before Robert remembered this thing from the depths of his memory.
Well, it’s a treasure map!
Use skulls to represent dangerous areas, simple curves to represent forward routes, and cones and cylinders to represent destinations.
The treasure is that house. As for what valuables are inside...
"That kind of thing doesn't matter!"
"Who digs treasures just for the little things they have around them?"
That's what the twins said, but they didn't know if they would faint from shock if they really found a priceless treasure.
"Okay, gentlemen, do you want to take action tonight?" Robert looked eager to try, "I've long wanted to see the depths of the Forbidden Forest! But it's definitely not possible with just a few of us. By the way, did you bring Li with you?"
"Jordan is the best!" Fred gave a thumbs up, "You will never imagine how capable he is!"
……I really do not know.
Robert secretly complained that his biggest impression of Jordan was——
"Jordan! Did Firebolt pay you for advertising? Hurry up and commentate on the game!"
——The anger from Professor McGonagall.
This is a wizard whose IQ dropped when he saw Quidditch, and he has a sincere fanaticism for all kinds of strange-looking magical creatures.
All in all, he should enjoy this adventure and be very reliable.
Right?
Robert thought a little uncertainly.
When we came to the auditorium, it was filled with silver and green. On the wall behind the teacher's chair, there was a huge tapestry embroidered with a snake with a coiled tail.
"...Slytherin guys are so arrogant?" Fred complained, "Isn't this taking away all the wealth they have hidden for many years?"
In fact, he was jealous. There was such a tapestry in the common room of every college, but he didn't expect the little snakes to be crazy enough to get it here.
George looked at the tapestry with envy, "Hey, if we could get a little more points, we could be so arrogant..."
"Don't think about it, George." Fred said with a heartbroken expression, "We have to add at least 200 points. Don't forget that we are fourth."
Yes, this year's ranking is like this, Ravenclaw has 510 points, Slytherin has 490 points, Hufflepuff has 480 points, and the little lion...
Um……
320 points.
So what are you doing this year?
This score is simply unbearable.
Robert, who had no clue at all, deeply condemned the two of them, but he did not say it out loud.
Isn't it part of the college culture to deduct points?
Cedric and the others were already seated at the Hufflepuff table, and Robert said goodbye to the twins and squeezed over.
"I didn't expect that Slytherin would win the House Cup this year." Mr. Honey Badger was very worried. "I always feel that our suicide elimination method has some serious flaws."
What the hell is suicidal elimination!
You even gave the method of defeating Slytherin such a name! Really...
marvelous!
"I think the main reason is that our scoring methods are somewhat lacking." Cedric expressed his opinion.
Mr. Honey Badger nodded in agreement and asked what everyone was thinking, "So, what are we going to do?"
For a moment, the little badgers were silent.
The little wizards in the Badger Courtyard do not have outstanding offensive talents. According to Mr. Chen, they are just too honest and lack any edge.
To some extent, the talents of the little badgers are polarizing, either so good that they are explosive, or they are so low that they are outrageously low.
And because most of the little badgers have a calm personality and are practical in doing things, many of them are suitable for doing research and like a peaceful life.
But I don’t mind venturing out once in a while.
