Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Dean returned home and gave his coat to the nanny.

"Dean, Madam asked you to change your clothes so you can't be late for your grandmother's birthday party."

The nanny looked at Dean's back as he hurried upstairs and shouted loudly.

"Got it! Let me check first to see if Bibi Every Flavour Beans has been updated!"

"What beans?"

For the nanny who is over 40 years old, there are more and more new things recently that she can't understand.

As soon as you learn one thing with great difficulty, a new one pops up.

I feel like my brain isn't as good as it was when I was young.

But there was one thing among those new gadgets that she really liked, the player.

It is not used for listening to songs, but for listening to books.

I found the book I was listening to recently, "Chapter 35, I hugged her with agility..."

A magnetic male voice came from the player, and the nanny began to clean the expensive large cabinet with satisfaction.

Dean returned to his room and first stuffed all the Yu-Gi-Oh cards into a small box and locked it. These were his most precious collections.

Then he threw himself on the bed, took out his cell phone and logged into the online literature forum.

Reading a novel is much more interesting than attending my grandmother's birthday party.

It’s not that he doesn’t like his grandmother, but at such occasions, there will definitely be a lot of adults with scary names coming, and they will take the opportunity of the gathering to talk about some seemingly great things.

No kid would be interested in that kind of stuff.

Dean's grandmother was an excellent bard.

He is not the kind who tells street stories, but an extraordinary person who can exert magical powers through chanting, and his level is very high.

When she was young, she was in the same adventuring team as Soran and they had a pretty good relationship.

This is why Soran came to Dean's grandmother's birthday party.

He had just lied to his friends. Master Sauron was going to his grandmother's house, not his own home.

But it sounds more powerful that way.

Children can sometimes be more vain.

Besides, going to my grandmother's house is almost the same as going to "his house", so it's not a complete lie.

Although the grandmother was a great bard, her children did not inherit the talent.

It is a wonderful balance in nature that a child born from a person who can control magic may not necessarily be able to control magic. Similarly, a magical genius may also appear in an ordinary family.

This is exactly the same as what is written in Harry Potter.

In short, the Dean family is in a situation where each generation is getting worse than the previous one.

With the wealth accumulated by my grandmother from her adventurous life, my parents bought several shops and are now trying desperately to get into a higher level of social circle.

Dean is their hope, the only one in this generation of his family who can sense magic.

Ever since he was discovered to be able to sense magic at the age of six, his growth plan had been arranged until he was thirty.

First, you will be trained one-on-one by a tutor, then enter a famous magician's tower as an apprentice, be admitted to a prestigious school, and find an outstanding mentor...

That's basically it.

What we are going to achieve at today's banquet is the second step of the plan, which is to ask Master Sauron for a letter of recommendation to help him enter a more famous wizard tower.

The opportunity to become an apprentice is certainly not fair. If everyone has similar talents and test scores, then it comes time to compete with each other in terms of connections.

A letter of recommendation from Master Sauron is much more useful than giving gifts directly.

Dean actually didn't like this, he knew his own worth, and although his tutor didn't say it directly, he could tell that he wasn't a particularly good student.

Master Soran probably sees hundreds of children of his level every year.

Besides, Master Sauron is familiar with my grandmother, not with the younger generations like them. It would be very embarrassing to ask for a letter of recommendation directly.

But his parents still held on to unrealistic fantasies, as if as long as he worked hard enough, he could become a high-level wizard.

That is why, after being diagnosed with a talent for spellcasting at the age of six, little Dean lost his easy childhood.

He was allowed to play for no more than one hour a day, two hours on holidays, and the rest of the time was spent studying endless spell books and taking one remedial class after another.

Growing up in such an environment made Dean and Harry Potter in the novel have a strong empathy.

Although their situations are completely different, Harry was put into foster care because both his parents died, while he is under pressure from his biological parents.

But in terms of feelings, Dean thinks they are consistent.

A childhood with almost no happiness and being constantly chased by various academic goals is not much different from a childhood growing up being bullied.

But Harry has an even better talent. During his flying lessons, he can make a broom fly into his hand in an instant.

By the way, why are the mages there flying on brooms? What a strange mount.

Discussing the feasibility of using a broom as a flying mount is also one of the hot topics in the forum recently.

Oh yeah, update!
Dean was refreshing Harry Potter's homepage frantically. He usually updated it at this time.

After refreshing thirty times in a row, finally, a new chapter appeared on the page.

"Chapter 11, Quidditch Match."

"Wow."

Dean perked up.

Quidditch, a house competition that was laid out in the previous chapters, is the most popular sport among wizards in the Harry Potter world.

Flying in the sky and playing ball.

It’s amazing just to think about it.

Harry was the Seeker, a key position, and a key player as a first-year.

It's exactly what Dean imagined himself to be.

However, in this chapter, Drogo is not described completely according to the original book.

The reason is simple: the Quidditch rules in the original book are too outrageous.

It was as if these rules were thought up on the spur of the moment just to set the stage for Harry.

The game ends when the Seeker catches the Golden Snitch, so much so that there was once a farce where a game was played intermittently for several months.

And it seems like the seeker is a game of his own, and the other players are another game, with both sides going on at the same time.

This is also a disaster for the viewing experience.

It is difficult for people to focus on two things at the same time.

Can you imagine that this is a football game, but there are two people running outside the field. Whoever runs faster will be counted as scoring more goals on the field?

Where should the audience look?

Drogo had the idea of ​​separating Quidditch and promoting it as a popular sport among the Flynns.

After all, Ferrin is not yet in a sport that is as overwhelmingly ahead of other sports as football.

Blue ocean!

As long as we can invent a flying broom, it might be possible to turn Quidditch into a popular sport.

So after Drogo's modification, Quidditch became a sport of fixed duration, divided into two halves.

At the same time, the seeker is separated from the other players, and the seeker's game is one-on-one before each half.

The side that catches the Golden Snitch gets to choose the side, attack first, and has 30 points left, within a time limit.

If you don't catch any, choose a side and pay with a coin.

And if there is a tie after regular time, the victory or defeat is entirely up to the Seeker.

One goal determines the outcome.

Therefore, in the story of Chapter 11, Gryffindor and Slytherin naturally tied in regular time.

Harry is on stage.

When Dean saw Harry fall off his broom and vomit out the Golden Snitch after a few coughs, he jumped out of bed excitedly, as if he was a hero on the field.

After reading this chapter, Dean skillfully opened the book fans discussion group.

Every time a new chapter is released, this group chat will discuss the new plot and speculation about subsequent developments.

Dean is one of the few Chirruo people in this group.

The group that believes that the Quirrell class of Defense Against the Dark Arts is the bad guy. The remaining 90% are Snape's group.

Seeing Dean come online, everyone welcomed him.

"Hey, who is this? Isn't this Dean? I have to say, Dean has good vision. He immediately determined that Professor Quirrell is the bad guy."

"That's right, that's right. If they hadn't read the book carefully, we wouldn't have been able to see it at all."

"Yes, Professor Snape, who has a sinister look, secretly threatens people in the middle of the night, and casts spells to interfere with Harry's broom during the game, must be a good person."

After the latest chapter was released, it was basically confirmed that Snape was a bad guy in the eyes of this fan group because of the plot that seemed to be a spell to interfere with Harry.

The Quirrellites who still insisted that Snape was a good man became the object of complete ridicule.

Many of the original Qi Luo faction have changed their stance.

Faced with the sarcasm of his group members, although Dean's face turned red, he still chose to stick to his own opinion.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! It's Quirrell!"

Dean tried hard to recall the evidence.

"Qiluo was also there during the competition. Maybe he was the one who did it."

"What was Snape chanting?"

"How would I know? I'm not the author. Maybe the author is playing some tricks."

There were a series of difficult to understand words, such as "eye-catching trick" and "the author did it on purpose", which made everyone laugh and the group was full of a happy atmosphere.

Although there are controversies about the development of the plot, everyone in the group is just joking about it and they are not really angry. After all, they are all together because they like this book.

"It would be nice if there really was a Hogwarts."

After chatting with the group, Dean put down his phone and sighed.

The Hogwarts in the novel is exactly his dream school.

Fun classes, amazing buildings, and adventure!

Wait, what if it actually exists?
Dean suddenly thought.

Open a search engine and type Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry into the search box.

As I searched, I felt ridiculous. How could the school in the world of Earth in the novel possibly exist?

"what!"

"What's wrong?" Hearing Dean's scream, the nanny hurried upstairs, accompanied by her own exclusive background music.

"He gently lifted Mary Sue's chin, and his breathing gradually became heavy..."

This kind of content is extremely harmful to middle-aged women.

The nanny only realized when she reached the door that what she was listening to was not suitable for children, and hurriedly turned off the player.

"nothing!"

Dean shouted back.

Now he has found his true purpose in life.

Go to Hogwarts.

The mobile phone interface clearly shows that Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is recruiting students.

Students aged 16 to 20 with a qualification of a mage apprentice and students of the same age with a certificate of graduation from a primary education school are accepted.

In special circumstances, the age range may be relaxed.

There really is a Hogwarts!
He actually didn't really want to go to the prestigious schools his parents had planned for him, and besides, he had no chance of getting admitted.

And this Hogwarts has just been established, so the admission requirements must be much lower. Although he is not old enough now, there are only a few years until he reaches the requirements, so it is unlikely to develop into a famous school.

so perfect.

Dean clicked on the official website of Hogwarts, which provided a detailed introduction to all the majors offered, training programs, target employment directions for graduates, and teaching staff.

He had never seen a school described in such detail.

This kind of information about other schools is only known by insiders, and people without connections have no way of knowing it.

I feel that the newly built Hogwarts is more like a proper school.

In addition to college information, the website also has a campus tour function.

You can see the scenery of all parts of the campus from inside.

Once Dean opened it, he couldn't take his eyes away.

It was exactly as he had imagined.

Dream school!

Now I have to go.

What surprised Dean even more was that there was actually a college matching test on the website.

Can determine which branch is suitable for you.

Dean immediately shared the URL with the book fans group, causing the group to be flooded with messages.

Just as Dean was doing the test enthusiastically, an urging voice came from downstairs.

"Dean, hurry up and change your clothes, we're about to leave!"

"Know it!"

I haven't finished the test yet, but my family is already urging me to go to my grandmother's birthday party.

What Dean didn't know was that because of his little discovery, the official website of Hogwarts spread rapidly among the readers.

Even earlier than Drogo had planned, more and more people knew about this mysterious new school from Waterdeep.

Dean, reluctantly, changed into his dress and came to his grandmother's house.

Another reason why he doesn't like such occasions is that his parents will force him to make friends with all kinds of "connections".

That is to say, to make yourself familiar to people of higher status.

Dean didn't think that was helpful.

"Sir Richard, this is our youngest son. Hahaha, he's quite talented. Come, say hello to your Grandpa Richard..."

"Captain Wayne, long time no see..."

Just like that, I entertained everyone all the way to my parents' main target, Master Sauron.

Dean looked at Soran curiously. This was the first time he saw the living legendary wizard up close.

Bald head, floral shirt, muscular body.

Just as rumored.

Master Soran is chatting with Grandmother.

The parents approached him in a flattering manner and explained their purpose in a tactful way.

Dean thought Master Soran would be very unhappy that the grandson of an old friend, whom he clearly didn't know, was still asked to write a letter of recommendation.

Unexpectedly, Sauron agreed readily.

The parents were very excited and exclaimed that Master Soran was such an approachable legendary wizard.

They didn't know that this was Soran's art of balancing the two.

Since his recommendation letters are very useful and people always ask him to write them, in order to ensure fairness as much as possible, he gives them to anyone who asks for them.

That means no one gave it.

He thought he was a genius.

After agreeing to Dean's parents' request, Soran casually asked, "Which school do you want to go to in the future?"

"We haven't figured it out yet."

"Welcome to apply for Repin, which is the best magic school on the continent.

“Of course, Padrick College is equally good.

"The Holy See College of the Church is also a very good choice..."

"I'm going to Hogwarts!"

"Huh? What is Hogwarts?" (End of this chapter)
