Chapter 450 Kama Taj’s Enrollment (First Update)
Afternoon, London, a certain neighborhood.
"Albus, Lockhart's enrollment this time is too large."
"The number of young wizards we recruit every semester is only a hundred or so at most, but he actually plans to recruit thousands of people."
"I can't even imagine that there are so many professors to teach, and how many people can manage it."
"Hogwarts, the total number of students is only over 1,000."
"."
The golden sunshine was shining on the street. Dumbledore was walking forward in a white wizard robe. Mag, who was wearing dark green clothes beside him, kept complaining.
Lockhart is a bit ungrateful!
How can you recruit students like this?
To recruit thousands of students, let’s not talk about food and drink. You just pick up the students to Kama Taj.
Can you pick it up?
How many wizards do you have? When these wizards recruit students, do they need to communicate with their parents? Do they need to take them to Gringotts to buy wizard robes, exchange them for gold Galleons, buy books, and buy wands?
No one is needed.
As far as Hogwarts is concerned, for students recruited from Muggles, basically one professor will take on at most two or three people, and in many cases they will take on one Muggle wizard.
Even if Karma Taj does not need professors to pick up students, he will use the young wizards he has trained.
Roughly speaking, we need three to four hundred people.
Let’s not talk about Karma Taj, there are not so many wizards now, even if there are.
These co-authors are all used to pick up students and do not do other things.
Running a school isn't as easy as you think, Lockhart.
As the vice principal of Hogwarts, McGonagall couldn't help but complain in her heart.
Dumbledore, who was on the side, just smiled and said nothing after hearing McGonagall's complaint.
After Mag stopped complaining, he opened his mouth and said: "Don't be anxious, Mag."
"Today we will take a look at how Kamal Taj recruits students."
"Lockhart told me before that Kama Taj's method of recruiting new students is very interesting."
"I asked, but he didn't tell me and said he wanted to keep it a secret for now."
"We won't reveal it until we officially recruit students."
"Let's take a look today!"
Dumbledore said with a smile, and after hearing this, McGonagall shook her head helplessly, but did not refuse.
"Albus, where are we going?" Mag asked curiously.
When he came out today, it was possible that Lockhart gave him some clues or found someone.
For example, let's see which young wizard comes out to recruit new students.
Dumbledore shook his head, with a hint of confusion on his face and said, "Lockhart said that if you want to know more, just come to London for a walk."
"There will definitely be clues."
"So, I'm taking you here for a walk today."
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he continued to lead McGonagall forward.
As I get older, I know a lot of things. You can’t be too hasty, you have to take your time, and you have to watch the timing right.
However.
"Albus, this...can't be Lockhart's recruitment method."
McGonagall tugged on Dumbledore's clothes and pointed at the screen on a tall building in the distance.
I saw a brand new picture appearing on the huge LED screen on the high building.
Huge words and various patterns are intertwined and blended together, creating a unique sense of beauty.
The text reads:
Kamal Taj, admissions revelation!
"Lockhart, you are so aboveboard, aren't you afraid of violating the secrecy law?" McGonagall whispered, her face obviously shocked.
With such a big screen, it’s because Muggles don’t know about Kama Taj and the wizarding world, right?
"No, there's something wrong with these patterns." Mag quickly reacted and stared at the various patterns on the LED screen.
"The smell of the transformed rune confusion spell and the spiritual inspiration even exude the meaning of a dream." Mag murmured to himself as he walked.
Dumbledore just nodded slightly, seemed to agree with McGonagall, and continued walking towards the front of the street.
Soon they walked through several streets. Basically every distance, they could clearly see the words about Kama Taj, and of course there were familiar patterns.
Some are on a billboard, some are on the covers of some best-selling books, and some are actually printed on the surface of some buses.
It can be said that as long as you are in London, everyone will always see Kama Taj more or less.
Dumbledore observed the scenes he saw along the way, with an inquiring look in his eyes.
Lockhart's recruitment methods seem very grand, but in fact they are extremely cautious.
After these patterns are combined, ordinary people and wizards see two pictures.
They are wizards, so naturally they saw the words Kama Taj.
And when he tried to suppress his magic and spirit, he looked at these advertisements from a Muggle perspective.
I discovered that it was an investment notice for a company called Kama Taj Co., Ltd.
It's very ordinary. For ordinary Muggles, they only need to look at it, turn around and forget it in the next second.
This is the effect of the Confusion Curse and the Forgetting Curse, and the method is very clever.
Relatively speaking, Squibs with spiritual potential or wizard blood can also detect these changes.
The better the aptitude, the clearer the perception. If the aptitude is average, it will be similar to ordinary Muggles.
A good screening tool.
No wonder Lockhart is planning to recruit thousands of people this time.
There are tens of millions of people in London. It should not be difficult to find 1,000 people who are qualified to practice meditation.
Sure enough, even if Kama Taj does not have a tool for selecting wizard apprentices like the Book of Access, he will have his own methods.
suddenly……
Dumbledore's expression shifted and he sensed a familiar aura.
Hey, why is Scrimgeour here?
His mind turned, Dumbledore understood.
He patted Mag on the shoulder and said softly: "Meg, follow me."
The next moment, black shadows flashed.
Phantom move!
And McGonagall followed closely behind.
…
"Minister Fudge, although Lockhart's behavior has been reported to the Ministry of Magic this time, large-scale spellcasting in the Muggle world will still have many negative consequences."
"I personally believe that restrictions must be imposed." Director Auror Scrimgeour said solemnly.
Cornelius Fudge waved his hand and said without worry: "Don't worry, Scrimgeour."
"Lockhart has said that this is the last time that such a big fanfare will be used because it is so close to the start of school."
"It won't happen later."
Scrimgeour was a little angry when he heard this.
But then, Fudge was heard saying: "Don't forget Lockhart, but the Auror Office donated a batch of magic items."
Hearing this, Scrimgeour stopped talking.
Well, it’s better not to offend the funder.
Fudge continued.
"And Lockhart is much easier to talk to than Dumbledore, so he specially invited us to watch their admissions process."
"If it were Dumbledore, what do you think"...
While Fudge was speaking, suddenly...
Buzz!
Scrimgeour immediately noticed the spatial fluctuations nearby.
Subconsciously, he lifted his hand and placed it on his waist, tightening the wand in his hand.
He turned his head and stared at the east direction with a vigilant expression.
But Fudge didn't notice anything and continued to complain about Dumbledore.
"You said that compared to Lockhart, Dumbledore doesn't listen to advice at all."
"If only Dumbledore could be more enlightened..."
"Minister, stop talking, look." After noticing who the person was, Scrimgeour pulled Fudge and reminded him in a low voice.
"what happened again……"
Fudge also turned his head to look, and his expression froze when he saw the person clearly.
Immediately afterwards, his face changed with lightning speed, and he greeted him enthusiastically.
"Haha, it turns out to be Principal Dumbledore."
"I mentioned you just now. The peace of the wizarding world in the future cannot be separated from top wizards like you and Lockhart."
Dumbledore smiled, looked at Fudge who came up to him with a smile on his face, and said gently: "Wherever, the wizarding world now needs more young people like Lockhart."
"For those of my age, it's better to watch the young people perform."
While Fudge and Dumbledore were communicating.
suddenly……
Once you arrive at the laboratory, the portal opens.
Peggy Carter walked out wearing a blue wizard robe.
"Minister Fudge, Principal Dumbledore, you are all here."
“Welcome to Karma Taj!”
