Chapter 29 Dumbledore’s request! ! (Looking for further reading, looking for investment, and looking

"Now, welcome to our new professor, Gilderoy Lockhart, who will teach you the Defense Against the Dark Arts course."

Lockhart was a little bored just now, but when he heard Principal Dumbledore introduce himself, he immediately became energetic.

He quickly stood up and bowed gracefully to the many young wizards.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Then amid loud applause, Lockhart smiled brightly at the little wizards.

Maybe Lockhart was famous before, or maybe he saw Lockhart's handsome face.

The little wizard's applause was very intense.

After standing for a moment, Lockhart sat back down in his seat, and the applause began to slowly subside.

Watching Dumbledore continue the meeting with a smile on his face, Lockhart became bored again.

Start looking for opportunities to chat with Professor Sprout next to you and talk to her about magical plants.

"Lockhart, I have to say that you brought back to school all the knowledge about herbal medicine you learned in school."

"Uh, professor, actually I still remember some herbal knowledge."

"Which ones? Lockhart?"

"Well, I remember mandrake, gillyweed."

Lockhart said hesitantly, looking a little embarrassed.

It's so pitiful that even the original adventure experience was stolen through memory spells, and the combat spells haven't been practiced for a long time.

Not to mention all this herbal knowledge.

He himself has only been studying runes, combat spells and the like recently, and the magical plants have never thought of this.

It didn’t take long before the secret was revealed.

However, his reaction was like that and he immediately started to change the subject.

"Professor, I once saw a magical plant called golden clover."

"It can be used to restore magic power and is also a symbol of good luck."

"I don't know if you have seen it before."

Hearing Lockhart's question, Professor Sprout recalled it carefully and asked with some confusion: "Is there really such a plant? Why have I never heard of golden clover?"

Well, of course you haven't heard of it.

This is a magical plant in the Marvel world, and you only have ghosts after you’ve heard of it.

"Of course, I've seen it with my own eyes. I'll contact my friends. I'll send you a copy after a while, and you can study it again."

Lockhart's reply immediately made Professor Sprout very interested. She had to study the unknown magical plant carefully.

Taking this opportunity, Lockhart quickly changed the subject and started talking about his adventures.

He is quite good at this and has written 7 books, with vivid language and interesting cases.

Professor Sprout immediately laughed and let the relationship take its course.

He quietly looked at the system panel.

Character recognition: Pomona Sprout (39/100)

Well, we have only chatted for a while, and the recognition is quite good. When the time comes, I will send some magical plants from the Marvel world.

Reaching a recognition level of 50 should not be a problem.

At that time, at least rewards such as knowledge can be obtained quickly through draws.

When he thought of this, Lockhart felt a little excited and raised his voice slightly, attracting the attention of Professor McGonagall next to him.

Seeing Professor McGonagall's serious gaze, Lockhart sneered and said, "Sorry, Professor McGonagall!"

Then he immediately lowered his voice when communicating with Professor Sprout.

Snape, who was next to him, noticed this scene, glanced at it indifferently, and then continued to look at the young wizards in his academy.

After a while, the freshman meeting in Lockhart's eyes was finally over.

But what he didn't notice was that Snape and Professor McGonagall disappeared without a trace.

In other words, even if he noticed it, he didn't care because he only wanted to end this boring freshman meeting as soon as possible.

It was finally time to eat, and Lockhart was getting ready to try Hogwarts' craft.

Picking up the fork and tapping the gold plate, a large amount of food appeared on the gold plate.

Lockhart started moving immediately.

The food at Hogwarts still tastes good, although it's not as good as the food you cook yourself.

But it is much better than the average family.

After eating and drinking, all the little wizards, including the professor, were ready to go back to rest.

Sudden!

Lockhart felt someone tap his shoulder from behind.

Turn around quickly.

"Professor McGonagall, what's the matter?"

Turning his head, he saw Professor McGonagall with a serious face. Lockhart asked in surprise.

"The principal said he has something to ask you, so come to the office with me."

Hearing Professor McGonagall's usual, somewhat old-fashioned tone, Lockhart nodded and followed him towards the principal's office.

As I walked, I thought to myself, what could happen?

He didn't even attend classes, and the only extraordinary thing he did recently was to study the Hogwarts Express.

He just looked at it and didn't take it apart yet.

You wouldn't call yourself such a trivial matter.

No way?

Soon, the two walked into the corridor on the eighth floor and headed towards the principal's office.

"Dragon's milk cheese!"

As Professor McGonagall spoke the password, the gargoyle moved aside.

Lockhart followed Professor McGonagall towards the stairs and soon entered the Headmaster's office again.

Looking at Principal Dumbledore who was writing at his desk.

Lockhart stood aside and watched quietly, while Professor McGonagall quietly left the principal's office.

Soon, Dumbledore put down the quill in his hand, raised his head, looked at Lockhart standing next to him, and said gently: "Lockhart, you are here."

"Yes, Headmaster, is there anything you need me to do?" Lockhart nodded and asked curiously.

"It's not a big deal. You can read this newspaper first." Dumbledore said as he handed Lockhart a copy of the Daily Prophet.

Lockhart picked up the newspaper and saw the eye-catching headline at the top.

"Seven Muggles discover aerial vehicles, the Ministry of Magic takes urgent action"

After reading the content of the Daily Prophet, Lockhart raised his head in confusion and asked Dumbledore: "Headmaster, is there anything I can do to help?"

Isn't this an accident caused by Harry Potter? What does it have to do with him?

"Indeed, there is something that needs your help." Dumbledore nodded in distress and said gently, "Harry caused some trouble, although it has been dealt with."

"But I think he needs to improve his combat experience to withstand unexpected risks that may occur in the future."

"And you, as a professor who teaches Defense Against the Dark Arts, are also an adventurer, so you should have rich experience in this area."

"Can you help me develop Harry's combat experience?"

Although he was a little surprised by what Dumbledore wanted to do, Lockhart still nodded and said, "Okay, Headmaster, but I would also suggest organizing a dueling club."

"I can teach them some dueling methods and experience, and at the same time, the young wizards can practice with each other. This will have the best improvement effect."

Well, the main reason is that if you tutor Harry alone, you will inevitably have to answer all the problems he encounters, which will easily delay your own research time.

He didn't have much time to begin with.

If he opens a club, he will just share some methods, techniques, and experiences, and then they can practice on their own.

At the same time, professors can also be invited to participate, and he can also take this opportunity to build good relationships or learn from their experiences.

Why not do it?

After hearing Lockhart's suggestion, Dumbledore nodded slowly: "Lockhart, your suggestion is very good. You can arrange your own time for the Showdown Club. If you need any resources, you can directly contact Professor McGonagall."

Hearing Dumbledore's last words, Lockhart's eyes instantly lit up.

To apply for resources, just contact Professor McGonagall directly.

Then he has to think about it.

What do I need now, no, what does the little wizard need?

As for the time for the decisive battle with the club, he is not in a hurry.

He has been teaching for a long time.

At least, let him know all the little wizards before organizing it, or wait until he comes back from the Marvel world.

In short, time is his and he is not in a hurry.

Afterwards, after a few brief words, Lockhart said good night and left the principal's office with brisk steps.

boom!

After Lockhart left, Dumbledore waved his wand and the door slammed shut.

Sudden!

The portrait of Principal Black next to him asked: "Cultivating dueling experience? Albus."

"Why don't you find Filius? He was a duel champion when he was young."

"And Lockhart?"
