The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 269 Flying with a sword!

When Mu Sheng appeared again, it was two hours later.

Luna and Hermione have become friends with Hannah, Justin and others, and they are all gathered together to chat and do homework.

"You guys get along pretty well!"

Mu Sheng walked to the sofa in the middle and sat down, then blinked at Hermione and said:
"I'm right, they are all very easy to get along with.

How about transferring to our Hufflepuff house?"

Hermione was instantly moved when she heard this. Although she had only been with Hannah and the others for a few hours, she did find that she felt more comfortable staying here.

Facing this person is Hermione, who always likes to show off in front of others that she is well-read and has a strong learning ability.

The Gryffindor students who don't like studying will only think that she is like a peacock with its butt sticking out and its tail spread out. They will stay away from her and even say bad things about her behind her back.

But it’s different for Hufflepuffs, who are mostly honest people. Everyone will only affirm her abilities.

"You can't transfer houses in Hogwarts, right? I don't think there is any relevant provision in the school rules."

"Not now, but there will be one after I take over the position of headmaster from Dumbledore," Mu Sheng made no secret of his plan.

Hermione's eyes widened instantly: "Dumbledore is the greatest wizard of this century, how did you take the position of headmaster from him?
And if you want to become the principal, you need the approval of 12 school directors."

"Look at you, you've fallen into the cult of personality again!" Mu Sheng stretched out his index finger and shook it left and right.
"If Dumbledore was so powerful, why didn't he put Voldemort in Azkaban?

Why do you want to package a newborn baby as a hero who saved the wizarding world?"

As soon as Mu Sheng finished speaking, before Hermione had time to refute, several young wizards from wizard families nearby exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh my God! Victory, how dare you say that man's name?"

Ernie looked around fearfully. It seemed that Voldemort was hiding in the shadows in some corner, holding his wand and preparing to cast a killing curse on them.

"I heard that the mysterious man cursed his own name. Anyone who mentions his name will be sensed by him."

"I've heard that too, Victory. Don't mention that man's name again. It's too dangerous!" Hannah echoed with some fear.

The other little wizards also expressed their agreement, even Hermione, who was of Muggle origin. As a book lover, she also knew how terrible Voldemort was.

Only Luna and Justin were not afraid. The former's thinking process was different from that of others, while the latter was simply ignorant.

Justin, who doesn't like reading much, doesn't even know who Voldemort is.

"You guys are making a fuss, aren't you? It's just a name, Voldemort."

Mu Sheng originally planned to continue calling Voldemort by his name, but seeing the frightened looks on the faces of the little wizards, he decided not to scare them.

“Okay, I say the mysterious man is okay, right?
The mysterious man is not as scary as you think, he just killed more people! How many people did he and his Death Eaters kill?" Mu Sheng said with disdain.

When it comes to killing, Mu Sheng has at least several thousand dollars in his hands, and even more people have died indirectly at his hands.

"Justin, you come and tell them how many people died in the two world wars in the Muggle world!"

"Ah! Me? I died in both world wars, died."

Justin didn't expect Mu Sheng to ask him so suddenly. Justin, whose academic performance was only average, hesitated for a long time and couldn't come up with an answer.

"No, little brother! How can I give you the magic fruit in the future if you are like this!"

Mu Sheng was also a little impatient. You know, although the people who were given the magic fruit could get some of Mu Sheng's familiarity and abilities, these blessings could only serve as icing on the cake.

Take Megan for example, although the magic fruit has enhanced her physical fitness, it is still within the range of normal people.

Even within the scope of normal humans, it can only be considered excellent, not even at the top level.

The greatest improvement that the magic fruit brought to Megan was the magic book in her mind. The spells recorded on the pages could be cast instantly.

However, how to choose spells in specific battles depends on your own combat skills and knowledge reserves.

Therefore, when magic fruits are limited, Mu Sheng still prefers those wizards who are already excellent.

Seeing that Justin couldn't say anything, Mu Sheng was about to say it himself, but Hermione spoke before him.

"Over 1000 million people died in World War I, and over 7000 million died in World War II.
In Britain alone, more than a million people died in the two world wars, not counting the wounded.”

Hermione raised her little face and said a string of numbers with confidence.

"More than 7000 million people, how many people are there?"

“I don’t know, but it sounds like a lot.”

Hearing such a large number, several little wizards immediately started talking.

However, for those who have lived in the magical world since childhood, they cannot specifically feel the horror of this number.

Seeing this, Mu Sheng added: “Let me tell you this, the total number of students and professors in Hogwarts is less than a thousand.

The two world wars were equivalent to destroying Hogwarts more than 80,000 times.

At the rate of one destruction per day, it would take more than two hundred years of destruction!"

After Mu Sheng’s description, the little wizards instantly had an intuitive feeling.

"Oh! My Merlin! How many people would have to live there if Hogwarts had been destroyed for more than two hundred years?"

"So from now on, if I destroy Hogwarts once a day, by the time I die of old age, I will have destroyed less than half of it?"

"Oh my god! The Muggle world is so scary!"

"Yeah! Compared to them, I feel like the mysterious man isn't that scary."

While the young wizards were horrified by the huge number, their fear of Voldemort also subsided a lot.

Although the Dark Lord and his Death Eaters were described as extremely cruel and terrifying, they were unable to destroy the wizarding world.

The number of wizards who died in their hands was at most a few hundred or a thousand, which was the number that destroyed Hogwarts once. Compared with the number of more than 80 million, it was simply negligible.

In addition, they had not experienced the period when Voldemort was rampant, and their fear of Voldemort was originally based on illusory legends.

This kind of fear is easier to destroy!

This is also the reason why Dumbledore tried to make Harry Potter into a hero who defeated the Dark Lord.

Just look at the people who finally participated in the resistance against Voldemort and the Death Eaters in the original book. Almost all of them were Hogwarts students and their parents.

It is because these children have not experienced the period of the Dark Lord that they have the courage to pick up wands to resist, and coupled with the legend of Harry Potter defeating Voldemort that has been promoted for many years.

This two-pronged approach brought together the strength of these people and ultimately defeated Voldemort and his Death Eaters.

"Hiss~ As expected of the White Lord, this old man Dumbledore is really cunning!"

Mu Sheng complained secretly, but now that he is here, there is peace in the magical world.

Voldemort will deal with it himself, there is no need for Harry Potter!
After everyone talked about this topic for a long time, Hannah suddenly asked Hermione with some curiosity.

"Hermione, you are also from Gryffindor. Do you think that Harry really defeated the You-Know-Who?"

When Hermione heard this question, she immediately thought of the obscene scene on the train.

Coupled with the way Harry was troubled by Snape in Potions class and his performance in other courses, Hermione began to doubt the legend. "Well, I don't know Harry very well, but he is kind and a good person."

"Oh, that means you don't have any special skills!"

"That's not the case. At least, well, Harry is indeed very ordinary."

Hermione wanted to say something to make up for Harry, but finally gave up.

It was only two days into the school term and they hadn't had their flying lessons yet, otherwise Hermione would have been able to point out one of Harry's special talents.

"That's it. How old was Harry when the You-Know-Who disappeared? How could he possibly defeat the You-Know-Who?"

"I think so too. I think Victor is more likely to defeat the mysterious man."

"."

Everyone was chatting and doing their homework, and soon it was time for curfew.

Mu Sheng sent Luna and Hermione back to the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor dormitories respectively, and then returned to his own dormitory.

There are still many things that can be refined now, so he doesn't plan to explore the forbidden forest for the time being.

The main reason is that there are no particularly powerful magical animals in the Forbidden Forest. Whether it is an eight-eyed spider, a centaur or a werewolf, none of them have bloodlines worth specifically refining.

Friday, September 9st.

When he woke up in the morning, Mu Sheng saw that the Leg-Locking Spell had been refined.

After casually hanging up the 'Petrification of Everything' spell, Mu Sheng began to experiment with the refining effect of the Leg-Locking Spell.

Just as Mu Sheng expected, the Leg-Locking Spell changed from being able to lock a person's legs to being able to lock any two parts of the body.

"Any two body parts."

Mu Sheng nodded thoughtfully, it seemed like there was a way out!

The first class today is a flying class, which is also their first flying class since school started.

If Charms, Transfiguration, Potions and other courses are main subjects, then Flying, Astronomy and other courses are secondary subjects.

Compared with the main subjects, there will be fewer courses arranged for minor subjects.

The flying class was held on the outdoor lawn outside the castle. When Mu Sheng and others arrived, they saw two rows of flying brooms already placed on the lawn.

But they are all the most common models.

Madam Hooch, with short grey hair and a black robe, looked sharply at the students from the two academies in front of her.

"You must have heard about Neville Longbottom's flying accident yesterday."

"I repeat, you must not panic when operating a broomstick."

Ms. Huo Qi carefully reminded the students of the precautions for flying, and only allowed them to start practicing after everyone had memorized them.

"stand up!"

"up!"

The little wizards followed Madam Hooch's instructions and gave orders to the broomsticks on the ground.

After the broom bounced off the ground into his hand, he sat astride the broom handle and controlled the flying broom to slowly fly up.

However, Mu Sheng did not do so. Instead, he took a step forward and stepped on the broom handle with one foot in front and one behind.

Then he thought about it, used magic power to activate the flying broom, and flew up while standing.

"Wuhu~"

Mu Sheng stepped on the flying broom and shot out like a sharp arrow, drawing a long arc in the air.

"It's Victre. Why is he standing on the broom?"

"Isn't he afraid of falling?"

The other students who were carefully controlling the brooms to fly slowly were also attracted by Mu Sheng who was flying flexibly in the sky like a falcon.

Not only them, but Ms. Huo Qi on the ground also noticed Mu Sheng's behavior.

He immediately shouted to Mu Sheng in the sky: "Stop, Victory, this is too dangerous!"

It was a pity that she had given him so many warnings just now, but this boy turned his head and ignored her words.

Yesterday, Neville from Gryffindor fell off his broom because he didn't control it well. This kid actually dared to stand on the broom.

Is this still a Hufflepuff student? She's even more Gryffindor than Gryffindor!
"Don't worry about me, Madam Hooch! Magic loves me, I won't get hurt!"

Still magic loves you?
Madam Hooch became even angrier when she heard that. She raised her hand and the broom at her feet flew into her hands.

Just as she mounted the broom and prepared to catch Mu Sheng, Mu Sheng in the sky made another move.

"It's too weird to step on a broom." Mu Sheng looked down at the broom under his feet, took out his wand and waved it: "Transfiguration spell!"

A beam of magical rainbow light hit the flying broom straight on.

The next second, the broom began to change. The wooden handle turned into a metal sword tip and quickly spread to the entire broom.

In an instant, it transformed into a huge sword that flashed with a sharp cold light.

However, Mu Sheng was still not satisfied. He turned his wand and cast a levitation spell on himself.

In an instant, the flying broom was like being filled with nitrogen, and it shot out with a whoosh, its speed reaching a new level.

"Look at me flying with my sword!"

Mu Sheng laughed heartily, put his left hand behind his back, made a sword finger with his right hand and pointed forward.

The whole person flew into the castle in an instant, flying quickly between the castle's spires.

"What a wonderful flying skill! This kid should play Quidditch."

Ms. Huo Qi silently put down her broom. She was no longer worried that Mu Sheng would fall and break his legs.

"Hufflepuff may win the Quidditch championship this year."

"Victori! Cool! So cool!"

Little brother Justin shouted excitedly.

Not only him, but other little wizards were also impressed by Mu Sheng's sword flying.

Although they are both flying, the way they fly on broomsticks is really lame!

"We are all freshmen, why is Victory so amazing?"

"I also want to fly with a sword"
