Chapter 317 Duel Club

Happiness, bah, the time of pain is always short.

After Hermione withdrew her gaze from Professor McGonagall, Fleur stopped the little movements of her mouth and hands, and used magic to clean up the traces.

In Hermione's eyes, Fleur was just a nuisance who disturbed her good deeds, not a thieving cat.

So, she just snorted and returned to the Gryffindor table, and after seeing Fleur also sitting back at the Beauxbatons table.

Baqir
If someone is not influenced by the ocean of subconsciousness, he will be very surprised.

How come there is a Badgill Granger at each of the Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff tables?

This is the characteristic of being omnipresent and all-pervasive.

Even behind Voldemort, who was doing Thomas Young's light interference experiment in the basement room of the Royal Academy of Sciences in London, there was a Basil.

He floated in the air, pointed with his right hand, and Voldemort's brain was cut open and exposed to the air.

But Voldemort himself seemed unaware.

This was not due to Bagel's superb skills. Although the cross-section of Voldemort's head was extremely regular and not a drop of blood had seeped out, the fluid in the brain was swaying as if the scalp and skull were still there.

But this is actually all due to the influence of the subconscious ocean.

Now the subconscious ocean of wizards around the world is controlled by Bagir through the live broadcast room.

Not to mention that Bajir himself is able to distort reality and human hearts according to his own ideas.

Even if Baldwin dissected Voldemort alive, he would not discover what Baldwin had done.

"Interesting, is this the embodiment of the mind being superior to matter?" After examining the source of Voldemort's magic power - the brain, Bagel exclaimed, "Because he believes that his body is intact, even if the top cover is removed, the body can still function normally."

"Wizards are scary, but they are not suitable for studying science."

"Muggles are necessary."

Because only wizards can see what they want to see during their experiments.

Light will only be composed of the elements they think of according to their thoughts, such as tiny runes, rather than waves or particles, and will not have duality.

Only Muggles who do not have idealistic powers can truly see the laws of physics.

The reason why Voldemort before him could do this was that he controlled his own scattered thoughts. There were only a handful of wizards who had such attainments in the art of brain occlumency.

"In this case, the interstellar era cannot be full of wizards. That's not right. We just need to improve it again."

"Ah, the Sorting House."

Basil, who was sitting cross-legged in the air, disappeared, and Voldemort's head returned to normal, growing lush black hair (the current Voldemort was not resurrected through magic, the cloned body had hair and was not disfigured).

After regaining his senses and suppressing the emotions that were almost thinking with his lower body, Bagel withdrew his hands from Pansy's thighs and Luna's lower abdomen and began to listen to the song, the Sorting Hat Song.

I am the unique magic hat,
You all already understand my importance.
The depository of the thoughts of the Big Four,
The heart of Hogwarts Castle,
Or is it the leader who categorizes you?

To Gryffindor shall be the bravest.

Go to Ravenclaw wisely,

The ambitious man sits in Slytherin.

The rest ran to Hufflepuff,
This classification is necessary and traditional.
Now I don't need to explain to you.

You all already understand,

Wizards all over the world already know my name,
The system of Hogwarts is admired by everyone.

But even so, I still work diligently.

To carry out the duties entrusted to me by the Big Four,
Now let's start sorting.

The hat remained motionless again after saying this, and applause broke out all around.

But there were whispers in between, and everyone in the auditorium noticed that there was something wrong with this year's song and started talking to each other.

“This year’s song is so short.”

"And most of them are just bragging about how great they are."

“It must have learned the content of the live broadcast from somewhere.”

"Did you notice that it looks a lot dirtier?"

"It's not that it's deliberately made old to show the heaviness of history."

“I don’t know about the heaviness, but the students in the branch this year must be having a hard time.”

Professor McGonagall also looked at the students sympathetically, and without even asking them to be quiet, she dropped her eyes to the long piece of parchment in her hand, and loudly announced the first name.

"Euan Abercrombie."

A little boy with unusually large ears walked out of the queue reluctantly, picked up the hat with his fingers, closed his eyes and pursed his lips to put it on.

Then the crack next to the hat brim opened again, shaking off some dust: "Gryffindor!"

As the Gryffindor students applauded, he patted his hair and shoulders, staggered to their table and sat down.

This time the sorting was particularly lengthy. Because of the appearance of the God Behind the Scenes, Hogwarts, which was considered the center of both worlds of the live broadcast, became famous overnight, so many wizarding families chose to come here to study.

This summer, in that inconspicuous locked tower that no students have ever visited, the [Pen of Acceptance] and the [Book of Admission] are so busy that they are almost smoking.

Harry also realized this as Ron's stomach growled.

But the first thing that came to his mind was what happened between him, Ron and Ginny on the train, which was probably known to the whole world.

His face was pale, and Ginny's small hands could not soothe his current worry.

The last time this happened was a month ago when he learned that a magazine named after him had been created, and it was his mother who founded it.

At the time, Lily said, "Instead of letting others criticize and spread rumors about my son, it is better for us to start it ourselves and keep this power firmly in our hands."

"I really hope the trial can start right away." Thinking of this, Harry couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, the last of the little wizards' house, who were obviously from Germany, ended.

"I also hope that the dinner can start right away." Ron, whose mind was dominated by hunger, misheard the words.

Harry was touched for a moment. Look, even though he was so hungry, he still noticed me talking and said Ron didn't care about me?
"Yeah." Harry nodded repeatedly.

However, there are many people like Ron. This sorting took too long.

So after the Sorting, Dumbledore's speech as usual was given, and he paid attention and shortened it.

Go straight to the point.

After all, the newly emerged professor Horace Slughorn and his Slug Club had become famous after Harry's birthday party, and his role as Potions professor was also widely known, so there was no need for an introduction.

"Welcome our new students, welcome! Welcome our old students - even if most of you haven't left at all! But this is not the time to get hung up on details, and there's plenty of time for speeches. Let's just eat happily!"

There was a burst of appreciative laughter and warm applause in the hall, and Dumbledore sat down upright, throwing his long beard over his shoulders to prevent it from blocking his plate - delicious food suddenly fell from the sky. Seven long tables were suddenly piled with large pieces of beef, pies, plates of vegetables, bread, jam and jugs of pumpkin juice, groaning under the heavy weight.

"Excellent," Ron sighed greedily, grabbed the nearest plate of chops and began piling them onto his, Harry's, and Lavender's plates.

This order is not a sequence, but a frequency, from high to low.

Ginny noticed this too.

Heartbroken, real heartbroken is not making a fuss.

She had long known that Lavender was not as good as Harry in Ron's heart.

She accepted Ron, Draco, and Harley.

So she just sighed deeply.

Hermione noticed it too (not referring to Ginny's reaction).

But she felt no guilt for introducing Lavender to Ron.

In her opinion, Ron was so hungry that he still remembered Lavender and was willing to share food with her. This was already a great achievement for Ron. It was just like Draco Malfoy slandering pure-bloods as rubbish because of a girl.

Overall, this only shows that Ron is sincere about this relationship.

"Hmm~ It smells so good." Hermione began to enjoy the food with peace of mind.

By the time she came to her senses, it was already the second half of dessert time.

She dropped her blueberry and peanut butter sandwich in surprise.

Ignoring the surprised looks from the people around him, Ron complained, "She eats more than me, what's wrong with Hermione?"

Hermione looked at Bagel. Could it be that he had expended too much energy in the carriage? After all, if it had not been cleaned, the entire seat would have been wet.

Baqir blinked in feigned ignorance.

He knows what's going on.

This was a physical transformation of Hermione, planting latent seeds through physical contact, which then slowly erupted during the meal, allowing Hermione to complete the transformation through the abundant food in front of her.

The transformation is not aimed at strength perception for the time being, but only makes her more resistant. Some waste products produced by body metabolism that she did not notice will disappear automatically.

Hermione herself noticed that her skin was smoother, firmer, and she had more energy.

"Maybe I'm really tired." Looking at Bagel's sincere eyes, Hermione touched her hair which was no longer dull and split, and did not continue to follow her intuition and doubt.

Dumbledore did not give her a chance to think further.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Dumbledore stood up and said, "Well, since we are all digesting another extremely rich meal, I ask everyone to be quiet for a while and listen to me talk about the precautions for the new semester as usual."

"Before the trial begins, because the live broadcast of the course from the Spell Card World, your courses may also be frequently adjusted accordingly, and the learning tasks will be more arduous. I hope you will be mentally prepared in advance."

There were bursts of wailing in the auditorium instantly.

The old students who have been in school for almost two months can understand this best. During the original summer vacation, their schoolwork was very heavy because of the live broadcast.

After school started, adding the original content to learn and the homework, it was simply a nightmare (except for Hermione, she was unconsciously excited, excited that now she didn't have to go to the library to find additional knowledge points to add to herself).

After the students calmed down a little, Dumbledore continued, "You should all know that due to the existence of summoning cards, beast fighting has been rampant, and the Forbidden Forest has even become a place for some students to fight beasts."

"Hagrid asked me to stop it. Many innocent animals were also attacked by some students."

(Fred and George felt very wronged for attacking the 'small animal'. "That was a Nundu panther, the most dangerous creature in existence that can wipe out an entire village with just its breath.")
"But through communication with Absi Dumbledore, I learned that beast fighting is actually an activity that can improve the personal qualities of both summoned beasts and young wizards."

("Letter exchange?" Harry, who knew nothing about this, looked at Cedric.)
"So, the school will arrange a special venue to open the duel club."

Hearing this, the scene instantly became boiling.

"awesome!"

"Dumbledore I love you!"

"I want to let everyone taste the power of my Ragnarok!"

"【Ragnarok】? Do you have a Hungarian Treehawk or some other 5x level beast?"

"Hungarian Treehawk? My [Ragnarok] is an evil bird! An evil bird that makes the surrounding creatures lose their minds!"

"3x dangerous level evil bird?"

"Okay, quiet." Dumbledore gave an order and the situation was instantly under control.

"Let me tell you the specific rules here."

"At the beginning, all magical creatures can only be classified and fought according to their respective danger levels."

"That means 1x level magical creatures and 1x level combat."

"Only after ten consecutive wins can you challenge the next level of magical creatures."

"Each duelist cannot force another to duel, and the invited party can refuse."

“No betting, no off-site gambling allowed.”

(Fred and George, rubbing their hands together in the hope of making a fortune, hang their heads.)
"Duelers can only duel within designated venues."

"At the same time, the most important thing is that the young wizard who holds a summoned beast above level 4x must have a high-risk beast card-making certificate before he can summon a beast above level 4x in the duel arena."

"That's not fair!" Ron shouted, standing up.

His bird snake is also 4x level (dangerous/requires specialized knowledge/can only be dealt with by a skilled wizard).

But the dangerousness classification of magical animals refers not only to the degree of danger they themselves are, but also to the danger of being punished by law for harming them.

For example, the Golden Flying Man is a 4x level, but it is not actually dangerous.

It’s just that its feathers and eyes are particularly precious, and the popularity of Quidditch almost caused it to become extinct, so it has become a protected species.

The bird snake is an animal that has both.

If you ignore its dangerousness, it should actually be classified as 3x level (can be dealt with by a capable wizard).

"I understand what you mean," Dumbledore replied patiently. "In fact, a classification table of magical creatures according to their own danger has been issued. It will be posted on the notice board in your respective lounges along with the dueling rules."

"By the way, everyone should remember to check the rules of the administrator, Mr. Filch. It is posted on the door of Mr. Filch's office."

"It contains rules about not using magic in the corridors, and a list of toys that are forbidden to be brought into school, such as the Spike Flying Saucer."

“Finally, I would like to mention that this year, there are two changes in our teaching staff.”

"I think everyone already knows that."

"Professor Slughorn will replace Professor Snape as Potions teacher."

"And Professor Snape has replaced Professor Moody as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher."
