Chapter 166: Divine Rival and Pig Teammate (Second update, please subscribe)

As soon as Ian stepped into the classroom, he saw Professor Lockhart sitting on the high platform, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.

Then focus on the entire classroom.

There are 36 desks in the classroom.

Arranged in six rows and six columns, spread throughout the classroom.

Ian saw Professor Lockhart sitting on the podium, and a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he saw the table opposite Professor Lockhart's high platform.

This made Ian's heart move, and he quickly walked forward and sat at the front, at the table opposite Lockhart.

The people behind him were a little annoyed when they saw Ian's actions, feeling that they had missed an opportunity to leave a good impression on Professor Lockhart.

Ian walked in front of the table, looked at Professor Lockhart opposite, bowed very politely and said hello.

After Lockhart saw it, he nodded slightly and motioned to sit down.

Everyone behind will choose the location they like according to their own preferences.

After seeing everyone sit down, Lockhart waved his wand, and a thick stack of test papers, plus a large number of quills, floated in the air and flew towards all the Squibs present.

Soon, a test paper and a quill appeared on the table in front of everyone.

Immediately afterwards, all the Squibs heard Lockhart say calmly: "One test paper, 20 minutes."

"After 20 minutes, take a 5-minute break and prepare for the 25-minute question and answer session."

"I want to emphasize that there is no score in the test paper. It is just to obtain some of your information and ideas so that I can get to know you better and choose a suitable research assistant."

"So, just write down your true thoughts."

"If you encounter something you don't want to write, you can leave it blank, but you must not write falsehoods."

"Please note that the quill is enchanted. If it contains false information, it will turn into another color. I hate deception very much."

After hearing what Lockhart said, all the Squibs looked stern and nodded.

"Okay, let's get started."

Following Lockhart's order, the impatient Squibs picked up their quills one after another, opened the test paper, and filled in the information.

The same goes for Ian.

Opening the test paper, Ian reviewed all the questions and found that the number of questions was okay, and it took 20 minutes to finish it, which was almost just right.

The first part is to ask about his personal and family information.

Next, it is about some attitudes towards wizards and magic.

suddenly

Ian's eyes narrowed, looking at this question with some confusion, not knowing what it meant.

"What do you think of Muggles? How much do you know about the Muggle world?"

This is not a screening research assistant, so what does it have to do with Muggles?

Moving his eyes downward again, he found that there were still some seemingly unrelated problems.

"How much do you know about non-wizard races? What is your attitude towards them?"

"As a future wizard, what problems do you think exist in the wizarding world?"

"."

The thought flashed through his mind, but Ian didn't think deeply about it because time was limited and he had to write quickly.

Confronting information about one’s own family.

Ian was very calm and wrote about the death of his parents.

As for the attitude towards magic.

There is no doubt that he is very eager to learn magic from Professor Lockhart.

And then about the attitude towards wizards.

Ian hesitated for a moment, then thought about it and wrote solemnly.

"The wizarding community is very complex and cannot be generalized. I once knew my boss and he was very kind to me. I am very grateful for this."

"But at the same time, the attitude towards some dark wizards who are cruel and ruthless is naturally completely opposite."

"But overall, most wizards are okay. Only some dark wizards are like cancer in the wizarding world."

Simply writing a general attitude about yourself will not go into depth.

He firmly remembered what Professor Lockhart said, even if he didn't want to write, he couldn't write false information when he had time.

Then Ian continued writing.

When seeing Muggle questions.

Ian wrote calmly: "Due to my parents when I was young, I had a certain understanding of the Muggle world. When I grew up, I read some Muggle books and gained a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the Muggle world."

"As for Muggles, I personally think that we should treat Muggles more rationally, instead of being full of disdain for Muggles because of some people's words and attitude."

Similarly, Ian did not talk about it in depth. He was worried that some of his ideas were too different from those of wizards and would be abandoned, which would really be asking for trouble.

As a squib, it was difficult for him to have the same views towards Muggles as wizards.

Because, through some books in the Muggle world, he found that it was very easy for Muggles to kill a squib like him.

Even killing the wizard is not impossible.

Naturally, in my heart, I don't dare to underestimate Muggles.

He looked up at the time and found that nearly half of the time had passed.

Quickly speed up and write out what you think.

If you can write, then write it. If you are worried about problems, then write less and try not to leave anything blank.

For example, the understanding and attitude towards non-wizard races.

Ian didn't know much about this aspect, so he simply wrote down a few names he knew, such as goblins, centaurs, etc.

He also thought carefully about his attitude. After listening to Professor Lockhart's final speech yesterday, he felt very shocked and left a deep impression on him.

After thinking about it, I decided to write everything based on the wizard and make the wizard great again.

Make the wizard great again. When he thought of this sentence, Ian felt a little excited for some reason, and there was a rush of blood in his heart.

At this moment, accompanied by the rustling sound of writing in the classroom, Lockhart closed his eyes and cast a spell to explore the spiritual talents of these squibs.

He wants to choose a research assistant, or to be more precise, to cultivate his own strength.

An important criterion is spiritual talent.

The new magic system does not have high requirements for bloodline, but places more emphasis on spiritual talent.

A squib with good mental talent can quickly realize the resources he invested.

You know, Filch's mental talent can only be said to be average.

But the reason why we performed well yesterday.

The most important thing was when Filch found him and said he wanted to testify against him.

He spent a lot of resources to train him.

For example, provide some magic potions that Karma Taj uses during meditation, or provide some various magic items that can increase the speed of practice and concentration.

These allowed him to successfully perform magic in just one week.

The resources consumed were not many for Lockhart.

But if the quantity is enlarged to 100 dumb guns or 1,000 dumb guns, it becomes a massive amount.

Therefore, Lockhart tends to find squibs with good mental talents to help him.

Of course, spiritual talent is only one of the important criteria.

The core criterion lies in their character.

The test papers written by Ian and the Squibs were actually the questionnaires issued by Lockhart.

The main purpose is to understand the character traits of these squibs.

Of course he knew that Squib couldn't fully reveal his thoughts to him.

Everyone will have their own scruples and worries.

But despite this, he could judge a wizard's character traits through the contents of these questionnaires and to what extent.

At least, he is a mature young man, or a childish brat.
