The years of welding at Hogwarts

Snape's pupils suddenly shrank.

He should have thought of it earlier, he should have thought of it earlier...

Noah waved his hand casually before stepping out of the office door.

"The Horcrux has a very strong dark magic protection. You must be careful when breaking it. Don't let it die before you see your beloved Lily."

An evil curse came from behind. Noah, who was standing in place, just tilted his head slightly, and the curse flew past his ear.

The wind blew his hair slightly.

"If you find the whereabouts of the Resurrection Stone, don't forget to take protective measures before touching it. I don't want to wait until then to receive bad news that my tool has been cursed and died."

Snape clenched his fists.

Tool man...

You're such a damn smartass!

Noah calmly broke Snape's magic that sealed the office door and turned around.

"Also, forget about the college team. I'm not interested in being a player. See you later."

Take measures!

Snape shouted angrily, "Shrinking potion!"

If Noah's figure had not disappeared outside the door, he would have thrown a few more invisible swords at Noah.

Noah's voice came back from the corridor, "Then you can only be a coach!"

……

The gates of Hogwarts Castle were closed at night.

A ghostly figure quietly climbed out of the open window in the second-floor corridor.

The pitch-black night and the all-black clothes made Noah appear optically invisible in the darkness as long as he didn't open his mouth to show his snow-white teeth.

On a flat lawn not far from the greenhouse, there is a willow tree with extremely thick branches.

The gnarled branches looked like arms with bulging biceps. The ends of the branches were curled and twisted together like fists as big as rice cookers, revealing a wild sense of power.

This is one of the main attractions of Hogwarts——

The Whomping Willow.

This is a very rare magical plant with a violent temperament. No matter what kind of creature it is, as long as it enters the attack range of the Whomping Willow, it will suffer a ruthless beating.

But few people know that if you find a way to get close to the Whomping Willow and press a certain knot on its branches, it will react in a certain way, just like a stressed mimosa.

The mimosa's response is to close, while the Whomping Willow's response is to remain still.

Therefore, this plant is quite suitable for guarding something.

For example, this bottomless black hole that Noah found at the root of the tree looked like the bloody mouth of a tree monster, but it was more like the entrance to a secret passage leading to nowhere.

A red light radiated from the Fang Tian Hua Ji in Noah's hand and sank into the dark cave, illuminating the dark secret passage.

flushed.

The tree roots on both sides of the secret passage entrance and Noah's body shielded the red light from leaking out.

After a long time, a figure, covered in dust and dirt by a sudden red flare, came out of the secret passage cursing.

“Can’t you call me in a different way?” Bucky’s tone was filled with strong dissatisfaction.

God knows how he has been spending the past two weeks.

Ever since Noah slapped him so hard that his soul left his body that night, and then he was bombarded with a bunch of explosive information that made him dizzy and disoriented, Bucky inexplicably accepted Noah's deception, bah, employment.

It would be difficult for a man as big as Bucky to hide under Dumbledore's nose.

Even if the magic in his body was too weak to attract Dumbledore's attention, such a large living person wandering around the castle every day would be noticed by the ubiquitous house-elves.

So Noah temporarily placed Bucky in the Shrieking Shack in Hogsmeade Village.

That is the final destination led by this secret passage under the Whomping Willow.

Every day, the house-elf that Snape brought from home would deliver meals to Bucky. It would not be a big deal even if the house-elf from Snape's house reported this matter to Snape.

Snape, who had signed a contract with himself, was almost there, even if he had not yet completely transformed into Noah's form.

"Isn't the purpose of learning magic to be convenient?"

Noah blinked his eyes, looking innocent.

Bucky had a stern face.

In such a dark night, no one could tell how dark his face was. Perhaps it was as dark as Falcon, Black Panther and War Machine?

"Tell me, who is the target?"

His tone was filled with coldness, as natural as if a street thug asked his eldest brother where they were going to kill someone today.

Such an explosive opening almost made Noah unable to hold back.

Looking at the Winter Soldier in front of him who was still in his dark state, Noah patted his metal arm and signaled him to relax.

"It's not murder." Noah suddenly smiled shyly.

"I have a car that I want to do some minor modifications on."

Bucky glanced at Noah, "What modification?"

When he was in Hydra, Hydra put all of his skill points into assassination.

However, if it is just some minor modifications, it is not a big problem for him who comes from the black technology universe, and his knowledge reserves are more than enough.

After all, killers sometimes have to modify their own equipment to make their weapons more convenient to use.

Hearing Bucky's words, Noah pulled out a piece of parchment from his pocket.

Written on it were his modification requirements, which were more than a dozen items long and clearly showed that he was well prepared.

"Where wizards gather, the magnetic field will become disordered, and the magic power escaping from the wizards' bodies will strongly interfere with electronic components."

"I want you to help me modify this car to be able to resist interference, just like your tracker. The surveillance can wait until the modification is completed."

He pulled out another key from the magic circle and threw it to Buggy.

"The address of the garage is written on the paper, and this is the garage door key."

"You can contact my Hydra subordinates. There are many mechanical talents among them. Although their knowledge is not as good as yours from the 21st century, it is enough to help you."

As he was leaving, Noah suddenly stopped again.

"Oh, and remember to be careful not to scratch my car."

"That's a limited edition, you can't buy it on the market."

……

Two days later, at a luxurious manor outside Birmingham.

Bucky stood in the spacious garage, looking at the "car" in front of him, and uttered a European and American essence from the bottom of his heart.

"Fake!"

Chapter 66: Those who play tactics are dirty

Once their college life gets on track, students will feel that time is passing by quickly and invisibly.

Two weeks passed in a flash, and it was already October in the blink of an eye.

During these two weeks, due to Ron's hospitalization, Hogwarts was peaceful and quiet, showing a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.

If we have to say what big thing happened in Hogwarts, it should be that there were suddenly some small changes in the course schedule of Hogwarts.

For students above grade five, several classes called “self-study classes” were suddenly added to their already busy schedules.

This caused complaints from the senior students at Hogwarts.

The senior grades already had enough courses to begin with, and now with this, they have almost no rest time at all except on weekends.

Even on weekends, the mountain of homework is enough to break their spines.

I can't live this day!

The indignant senior students naturally went to their deans to protest immediately. However, faced with the angry students, the deans just silently took out a list of test papers from previous years.

OWLs, as well as, NEWTs.

Looking at the mock answer papers handed in by the students, the previously calm deans immediately went into frenzy mode.

“That’s it

Terrible grades. If you don't study hard, what do you want to do in the future?"

"At your age, aren't you ashamed of getting this score? How can you feel at ease and say you want to rest?"

Faced with the furious deans, the senior students were so humiliated that they dared not even raise a single word of opinion.

I had no choice but to silently take on this added self-study class.

However, self-study classes are not a bad thing for some of the more studious students, and they do not add much burden to the professors in Hogwarts.

The professors simply moved the location for grading assignments from their offices to classrooms designated as study rooms.

Students get an opportunity to ask professors questions anytime and anywhere.

In addition to the addition of self-study classes, if we talk about other things, another thing that deserves attention is probably the Slytherin Quidditch team.

After entering October, in order to prepare for the Quidditch season that would start the next month, the Quidditch teams of the four colleges naturally started training early.

……

"Change the broom? Why do you want to change the broom?"

In the gloomy Potions office, Snape looked at Noah as if he were an idiot.

“It’s a reasonable use of the rules.”

Noah slammed a broomstick encyclopedia directly in front of Snape. The violent force that almost collapsed the table made Snape frown.

He glanced disdainfully at the Nimbus 2000 depicted on the cover of the illustrated book.

"If you think that simply using Galleons to buy the best new broom can be considered a tactic..."

He was interrupted by Noah before he could finish his words.

"Who would do something that is thankless and likely to cause gossip?"

"Quidditch's game equipment is not limited to flying vehicles such as brooms. The rules of this sport are not that narrow."

"what do you mean……"

Quidditch does not specify the type of flying vehicle that players may use.

As long as you think it's feasible, you can participate even if your fighting spirit turns into a horse, ahem, your magic power turns into wings.

If you can get a Tomahawk missile from America, you can even ride it into the sky and compete.

The reason why European and American wizards play Quidditch on broomsticks is that the data of this flying vehicle are most suitable for this sport.

Whether it is its flexibility, acceleration performance, maximum flight speed, or the riding method that allows athletes to use their bodies.

These data are beyond the reach of other types of flying vehicles, such as flying carpets, flying carriages, hover cloaks and the like.

The only thing that can surpass it is the characteristic flying vehicles of the East.

Because of this, flying broomsticks have become mainstream in Quidditch games in Europe and the United States.

But it would be a big mistake to narrowly believe that only flying brooms are suitable for playing Quidditch.

"Do you have any acquaintances in the Department of International Magical Cooperation at the Ministry of Magic?"

Noah smiled, turned the flying broom catalog in front of him to the back, and pointed at the flying props belonging to other countries.

“We may have to source some brooms from other countries.”

When he said this, he placed particular emphasis on the word "broom".

Looking at the "broom" drawn on the catalog in front of him, Snape's expressionless face, which was as cold as an iceberg, couldn't help twitching twice, and then he nodded slowly.

Damn, you guys are all so dirty when it comes to tactics.

He wanted to see what new tricks Noah, this big devil, could come up with for him.
