The Christmas holiday came as scheduled, and due to the Yule Ball, most of the Hogwarts students chose to stay in the castle for the holiday.
As for Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, due to their long journey back and forth, they naturally had no choice but to stay at Hogwarts for the holidays.
With more people, Kong Nuo received more gifts.
When he returned to the office early in the morning, he was overwhelmed by piles of presents as soon as he opened the door.
These gifts not only came from Hogwarts students, but also some of Beauxbaton's students, who also sent him gifts with French characteristics.
In Connor's impression, it seems that there is nothing particularly weird in France, whether it is food or supplies, they are all at a normal level.
Even wizards, in Kong Nuo's impression, French wizards belong to the more disciplined type.
However, he was still careless.
The first Christmas present from Beauxbatons gave Connors a little French shock.
When he just opened the corner of the gift, an indescribable stench came out from the gap.
Kong Nuo immediately held his breath, frowned and insisted on finishing the gift.
Inside was a colorful dairy product that looked like cheese.
However, it smelled even worse than the dung eggs made by the Weasley twins.
On the side of this dairy product, there is also a red postcard: Professor Kong, Merry Christmas, this is our French specialty blue cheese, compared to Muggle blue cheese, the blue cheese made by wizards smells better more intense!Hope you like it!
"Gift-giving genius!" Kong Nuo rubbed his temples, a little dumbfounded.
Facing the magical version of blue cheese whose stench had condensed into substance, Kong Nuo thought for a long time, but still didn't know how to deal with it.
In the end, he decided not to waste time and continued to unwrap the other presents, hoping that there would be no similar surprises inside.
The Hogwarts students' gifts were stable, and they also contributed a lot of small props made by Yi Shu to him.
Connor could see a lot of ingenuity in it, especially the combination of the gun mount and barrel given by the Weasley twins, which made him feel like he was dreaming back to steampunk.
Beauxbaton students' blue cheese is just an exception, and the Christmas gifts given by other students are much more normal, mainly perfume and some decorations.
Their hands-on ability is not bad, although the formula of those perfumes looks magical, but the taste is not bad.
It even made Kong Nuo doubtful whether they agreed that one person would give away the magic version of blue cheese, and the others would send out perfume to suppress the terrible taste of blue cheese.
Decorations are also handicrafts, but they still use more skilled traditional alchemy, and the beauty of these decorations is greater than ingenuity.
While Kong Nuo was unwrapping the presents, the students also started playing outdoors.
The castle was covered with thick snow, so those students who were restless because they were waiting for the dance party found a means of venting - snowball fights.
In the beginning, the students played very simple games, they just squeezed the snow and threw it at a fixed point.
However, as the number of people increased, snowball fights began to develop in the direction of "snow fights".
Whether it is the technique of throwing hidden weapons or the fighting posture of a snowball in one hand and a magic wand in one hand, they were all displayed by the students.
All of a sudden, on the snow outside the castle, magical light began to shine, and the sound of various incantations was heard endlessly, as well as groups of running black figures.
The Beauxbaton students who were watching the battle suddenly felt their scalps tingling. They didn't know whether these Hogwarts students were serious or just joking.
If it's Beauxbaton's snowball fight, it's actually the same as a Muggle, that is, pinch snowballs and throw them out, focusing on peace and friendship.
It's not like Hogwarts students, who not only use magic to attack and defend each other, but those snowballs that are as fast as arrows seem to be quite powerful.
Beauxbaton's students looked down at their chests, and couldn't help thinking: If they were hit in the chest by such a snowball... Christmas dinner can only be eaten in the school doctor's office, right?
Two students pushed a long tube that looked like a cannon. They came to the snowy place and started sending snowballs into the long tube.
boom!
A hole was suddenly blasted in the snow, the ground began to tremble continuously, and the deafening roar of the fire dragon could even be heard.
The students who were obsessed with snowball fights were stunned, and quickly searched for the source of the loud noise.
Even the people staying in the castle heard the explosion and came to the window to observe the situation.
Closest to the long pipe were two Hufflepuff students who were literally jumping up in fright.
When the two of them came to their senses, they immediately shouted loudly: "Running Gorgon! Fred! George! What are you doing?"
"Experiment the weapon of the second project!" Fred smiled, "How is it? Is it shocking enough?"
"We transferred all the magic used in making magic fireworks to the barrel. I didn't expect the effect to be so good!"
"Merlin's beard!" Many students gathered around, looking at such a huge creation, they didn't know how to describe it for a while.
Ron pulled Hermione and Harry into the innermost circle, looked up at the barrel and said, "George! How did you make this? This should be something from a Muggle book at home?"
"Didn't you join us last time?" George patted the gun barrel. "It's a pity that you are only busy modifying your dress robes. How about it? Do you regret it?"
"Of course I don't regret it!" Ron pursed his lips and said very forcefully.
"Wow! Our Oududou actually knows how to insist on his own opinion!" Fred immediately said, "I am really happy to see your growth! You have grown up! Ronald!"
"Are you going to use this for the second project?" Harry came out in time to make a rescue, "Have you finished the magic props needed for the second project?"
He chose to follow Neville's advice, at least when there was no sparring, he would relax his mind so as not to let himself be immersed in hatred all the time.
"Yes! We are going to install two turrets, the main target of attack is..." Fred and George suddenly made sniper gestures and kept moving the target in the direction of the Black Lake.
The other students cheered up immediately, "Aren't you going to aim to win, but to deal with them!"
George nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes! We are going to sacrifice our ego to help you clear the obstacles! So now we have to test, what is the maximum range of this fort!"
"At that time, we will attack from behind those Durmstrangs and see how they will deal with us!" Fred smiled triumphantly.
As for Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, due to their long journey back and forth, they naturally had no choice but to stay at Hogwarts for the holidays.
