Seeing everyone's expressions, Lockhart knew the time had come.

So he asked, "I have already explained to you the possible risks you may face in the future."

"Now, tell me..."

"Would you like to be my students?"

Lockhart's voice had just fallen.

Ian immediately shouted, "Yes, Master, I am willing to be your student."

Ian's voice seemed to press an open button, and all the Squibs shouted loudly: "Teacher, I am willing. I am willing to be your student."

Lockhart looked at everyone's expressions and nodded with satisfaction.

He had carefully selected these people, and although he wouldn't dare say that all of them were fatherless and motherless like Ian, their ties to family were very tenuous.

Moreover, his spiritual talent is not weak. If he is cultivated well, his strength will definitely improve.

Of course, the most important thing is that you are definitely not a saint.

Thinking of this, Lockhart's mouth curled up.

Then, he said to everyone, "I am very happy that you are willing to become my students."

"Now, you all line up. To facilitate the magic teaching later, I will cast a spell on you."

Then, as if he had thought of something, Lockhart added: "Ian, you are at the front of the line."

After hearing this, Ian stood opposite Lockhart very excitedly.

The rest of the Squibs looked at Ian with envy in their eyes, but stood behind him in an orderly manner.

Looking at Ian's excited expression, Lockhart took out a wand with great sense of ceremony and handed it to him.

Patting Ian's shoulder affectionately, he said gently: "Ian Norton, I am Gilderoy Lockhart. I will be your mentor in the future, help you become a wizard, and teach you magical knowledge."

"And you, for the rest of your life, will contribute every bit of your strength to the great cause of the new wizard."

"Ian Nord, will you?"

"I do!" Ian shouted without any hesitation.

At this moment, he held the wand in his hand, his eyes a little dazed, as if he saw a faint golden light emanating from his mentor, making him feel excited and excited.

Lockhart picked up his wand and tapped Ian's arm.

Instantly, Ian felt his arm slightly hot.

Looking down, he found a light golden circular pattern on his arm.

At the edge of the circular pattern, a golden dragon slowly swims around the text in the middle.

The text in the middle of the pattern reads:

Make Wizards great again!

Seeing these words again, Ian's blood boiled.

Then, he heard his mentor Lockhart say.

"Ian, this magic mark, from now on, if you focus your attention or mental power on the pattern, you can obtain some information contained in it."

"At the same time, after you become a wizard, you can use your magic power to communicate with me and your fellow apprentices in a simple way."

"This magical mark will be a testimony to our relationship, and also a symbol of the new wizard."

"If you are in danger, summon the magic mark and your companions around you will come to your rescue."

After hearing his mentor's introduction, Ian touched the golden dragon pattern on his arm with great care, nodded and said, "Okay, mentor, I understand."

After hearing this, Lockhart smiled faintly, touched his left shoulder lightly with his right hand, and said in a deep voice: "Let wizards... be great again!"

After seeing this, he immediately understood, and stretched out his right hand to touch his left shoulder. He bowed slightly to Lockhart and shouted loudly: "Make wizards... great again!"

This made the Squibs behind him look even more excited when they saw this scene, and they all looked forward to their mentors branding their arms with magic.

Ian then stepped aside and the next Squib stood in front of Lockhart.

It was the same process, handing over the magic wand, tapping the shoulder, branding the golden dragon pattern, careful introduction, and finally...

Make Wizards great again!

Every time the right hand touches the right shoulder, every time the head is slightly lowered, every time a slogan is shouted.

This is a process full of ritual.

This slogan made a deeper and deeper impression on Ian and other duds standing by.

Soon, Lockhart placed a golden dragon pattern on all the Squibs.

In fact, this magical mark shaped like a golden dragon is the dark magic that Lockhart exchanged with Slytherin, the top dark wizard.

It was also Lockhart who got inspiration from Voldemort's dark magic mark.

After a brief chat with Slytherin, he was able to exchange some knowledge of runes for similar magic.

He optimized it according to the knowledge he possessed and turned it into the current Golden Dragon Magic Mark.

Then, Lockhart looked at the people standing by and said gently, "Okay, now everyone follow my previous instructions."

"Focus on the mark and get the gift I prepared for everyone..."

After hearing what Mentor Lockhart said, they all nodded, concentrating and staring closely at the golden dragon pattern on their arms and the text in the middle.

Soon, Ian and others felt dizzy, and then a large amount of text appeared in their minds.

A quick look revealed that his breathing was a little rapid, which was exactly...

Star meditation method!

Chapter 172 Lockhart's Talent Pool (Fourth update, please subscribe)

The next morning, at the Pig's Head Pub.

"Ian, are you really leaving?"

Aberforth Dumbledore, the owner of the Hog's Head Inn, asked with some regret.

"Yes, boss." Ian replied firmly, "Thank you for taking care of me during this period."

"Next time I come back to the Hog's Head, I will definitely drink a glass of the fire whiskey you made."

Hearing Ian's firm tone, Aberforth sighed softly.

In fact, in recent times, he had felt Ian's inner hesitation and knew what Ian had experienced.

However, he didn't know much, but Ian's story reminded him of the experience of his son Credence.

So I have always been very caring.

Now it seems that the child has grown up and has his own opinions.

After thinking for a while, Aberforth took out 10 gold galleons, placed them in front of Ian, and said gently: "In that case, Ian, I look forward to meeting you next time, and then I will buy you a glass of fire whiskey for free."

"Please keep these 10 gold Galleons. Don't refuse them. If you need them later, they can be regarded as a reward for your dedicated service over the years."

Hearing this, Ian's eyes became slightly moist and he nodded heavily.

Knowing that this was the boss's good intention, he put the gold galleons away and said gratefully: "Thank you, boss. Thank you."

After saying that, he picked up his suitcase and walked outside.

Aberforth looked at Ian's departing figure, shook his head slightly, poured himself a glass of wine, and sipped it slowly. He missed his children a little.

After Ian walked out of the Pig's Head Inn, he looked at the busy street and walked slowly forward.

Last night, after he became Lockhart's student, he began to practice meditation under Lockhart's guidance.

At the same time, they were also told that they would be hiding in the dark in the future, and would not be as visible to the eyes of many pure-blood families as research assistants.

And they will become the pillars and leaders of the new wizard system, which makes them feel very proud.

So, when Lockhart suggested that in order to better train them, he suggested that they could live with him temporarily.

They certainly didn't refuse.

After all, they are the mentor's students, and being close to the mentor will be more convenient for practicing magic.

Soon, Ian walked into an empty alley.

He stretched out his arms and focused all his attention on the golden dragon pattern on his arms.

A golden light flashed, as if calling something?

boom!

Soon, but with a slight sound, the figure of the house-elf Gold Coin appeared in front of him.

Jinbi looked at Ian, the Stub, with complicated eyes and felt a little awkward.

Without saying anything more, he reached out and pulled Ian's arm, saying, "Hold it tight, you may feel uncomfortable when you teleport later."

"Just bear with it for a while."

After hearing this, Ian immediately grabbed the gold coin's slender arm.

Followed by.

Whoosh!

As the space changed, Ian suddenly felt his stomach churning and wanted to vomit.

I quickly covered my stomach and held it in. I had to meet my instructor soon, and it would be very embarrassing if I vomited.

Then.....

"Go ahead and vomit. You'll feel better after that."

Gold the house-elf held a trash can in front of Ian.

"vomit......"

At this point, Ian couldn't bear it any longer and started vomiting while holding the trash can.

After a while, Ian felt his stomach much better. He took the tissue handed to him by Jinbi, wiped his mouth, and slowly raised his head.

Look around the room.

This is a study room. There are brown-red bookshelves against the wall, with a large number of books on them, and some specimens of magical animals around them.

However, what attracted his attention most was an open magic suitcase lying on the floor not far away.

In an instant, he knew where he should go.

Sure enough, he heard the house elf Gold Coin next to him say, "Ian, the master has ordered you to go into the space inside the suitcase first and practice on your own."

“If there are questions, write them down.”

"When he comes back in the evening, he will answer your questions during practice."

Ian nodded to show that he understood, and then followed the gold coin into the suitcase space.

Prepare to start your own magic practice.

.................

Hogwarts, classroom corridor.

"Harry, are they going to become Professor Lockhart's research assistants?"

Hermione looked at the Squibs queuing in the corridor for the interview from the entrance of the staircase, and asked Harry beside her curiously.

"That should be the case, Hermione." Harry nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "Professor Lockhart is now very famous in the wizarding world."

"In the newspapers these past two days, it was said that Professor Quarohart was the father of meditation."

"Or maybe he has broken the wizarding world's century-old dilemma. Is there any hope for a Squib?"

"In short, many Squibs come here because of its reputation."

Well, actually, that's why Lockhart allowed Rita Skeeter to continue writing reports that discredited him.

On the one hand, it was to give Rita a chance to be recognized by the pure-blood family and join the camp of the pure-blood family.

On the other hand, it is actually to expand one's influence.
