The years of welding at Hogwarts

Seeing Noah coming back, every little snake turned their eyes to him.

Some students couldn't help but want to ask something, but seeing Noah's grim face, he didn't seem to want to talk to them. Out of the threat of Noah killing the serpent with one sword,

They didn't dare to step forward and ask anything.

The crowd crowded in the lounge silently made way for Noah to reach the dormitory until Noah's figure disappeared in the corridor.

Gemma Farley pushed Draco, signaling Noah's only roommate to chase after him and ask a series of questions that the students were eager to know the answers to, such as who was the murderer of the stadium attack and what measures Dumbledore would take to protect the students' safety.

But Draco was a coward.

Encouraged by the students, he chased after him and stepped into the dormitory.

As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw Noah holding a bloody tail in his hand, which looked like it was cut off from the snake corpse on the Quidditch field just now.

At this time, Noah was holding a piece of scale in his hand, which was obviously pulled off from the tail, and was observing it with interest.

Before Draco could ask the question that every student wanted to know, Noah opened a very familiar magic circle.

The next moment, accompanied by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, a twenty-foot-long basilisk fell from the magic circle in front of Draco.

The poisonous green light frightened Draco so much that his voice became distorted, and a soul-stirring scream made Noah's hands tremble uncontrollably.

"If you make any more noise I'll kill you."

Faced with the threat of death, Draco wisely chose to keep his mouth shut. Only then did he see clearly that the huge creature falling from the magic circle was just a piece of shed snake skin.

He really wanted to complain to Noah, saying, "Next time before you let this kind of weird thing out in the dormitory, at least give him a warning first."

But what Noah had just said made him completely afraid to speak.

Looking at the snake skin in front of him, Noah reached out and pulled off a piece of scale from it, and then put the scale taken from the tail of Voldemort's snake together for observation.

"Strange..." Noah muttered to himself.

If Voldemort chose to fuse the basilisk's blood when he was left with no other options, then the two snake scales should be extremely similar.

Even if there are some differences due to the fusion of blood, it shouldn't be so big.

The scales of the basilisk appear rough, but they are actually delicate and smooth to the touch, and appear a poisonous dark green when illuminated by the light.

The scale that was pulled off from Voldemort's tail was more of a shit green color, small and rough, and yet it did not have the strong magic resistance of the basilisk.

Noah just used a light and invisible sword to cut it in half.

As for the basilisk's scales, the equally powerful Shenfeng Wuying could only leave a tiny white mark on them.

Although spell resistance might be related to the concentration of basilisk blood, it was too strange that the color, structure and shape didn't match.

Noah silently questioned in his heart whether the two snake scales were from the same bloodline.

Seeing that Noah's mind was completely immersed in studying the green snake skin and the piece of fresh snake tail that was obviously just cut off, Draco didn't dare to disturb him at all.

He was like a eunuch serving the emperor. He left the dormitory with a smile on his face. When he came out, he did not forget to close the door to leave a quiet study area for Noah.

In the common room outside, Gemma Farley held her forehead helplessly as she looked at Draco's complete lackey status and expected him to get some valuable information from Noah.

How did this guy become Noah's roommate?

Chapter 101 Kamar-Taj Hogwarts Branch

After experiencing two attacks, one by the troll on Halloween and the other by the basilisk on the Quidditch field, Draco finally got serious about his combat training.

Even if it was not the weekend, as long as there was no class that night, Draco would drag his good friend Neville to the Room of Requirement for special training.

This suited Neville perfectly.

Originally, Neville was worried about not being able to find a suitable sparring partner.

In their group of five, Shirley and Hermione were girls. As a shy and innocent boy, Neville was embarrassed to fight against them.

If Ne'vi's fighting style is the traditional wizard's long-range confrontation, even if the opponent is a girl, it would be nothing to have a traditional wizard duel.

But unfortunately, when Neville added points to his skills, he only chose a levitation spell and a light spell.

Half of the remaining skill points were added to magic shaping. After all, using magic to shape weapons is a basic skill that a Kamar-Taj battle mage cannot avoid.

The last skill points were all given to melee skills.

Sword weapon proficiency, blocking, critical strike, charge, armor-breaking, violent, whirlwind...

As for the attribute points, one third goes to strength, one third to physique and one third to agility, and finally one attribute point is left for intelligence.

This is Neville’s current skill and attribute panel.

As a classic battle mage, physical collisions are an essential part of combat.

When facing Draco, Neville could punch him in the face with a deliberate punch without mercy, but when facing a girl, Neville, as a gentleman, could not do it.

After all, his title is Hufflepuff.

A swordmaster, not a Hufflepuff wielder.

Oh, and I have to point out here that Bellatrix Lestrange is the exception.

……

The Room of Requirement, the day after the attack on the Quidditch pitch.

On a Sunday like this with nothing to do, a normal person would have just laid down for the whole day to completely relax their body and mind.

But after Draco and Neville finished their breakfast in the hall, they went straight into the Room of Requirement and never came out.

Even during lunch and dinner time, the two never left the Room of Requirement.

If Noah hadn't ordered the house-elf in the kitchen to pack up meals for the two of them and send them over, Noah had no doubt that the two madly trained people would starve to death in the Room of Requirement.

After all, adversarial training is not an easy task.

The spacious Room of Requests is decorated to create a large arena according to the user's wishes.

On the ring, Neville suddenly swung his sword forward, cutting the poisonous snake summoned by Draco with the Dragon Out of the Cave into two pieces cleanly.

But the flying venomous snake was only used to temporarily block the opponent's vision. A disarming spell that followed hit Neville, and the long sword in his hand formed by magic power shattered into golden light.

Faced with such tangible weapons, annihilation weapons can always play some unexpected role.

Before Neville could create another sword to fight the enemy, Draco raised the wand in his hand and a beam of magic light shot out.

After so much practice, Neville has become quite skilled in shaping weapons. It only takes less than half a second for a long sword to appear in his hand from nothing.

He slid and turned to avoid Draco's spell attack, and rushed forward with the Naviti sword.

But he never expected that an iron chain suddenly came from behind and quietly wrapped around his ankle without his noticing.

With the rear wheel locked, Neville, who maintained his forward momentum, was caught off guard and fell forward.

Seeing the ground getting closer and closer, Neville reacted quickly and swung the sword in his right hand downwards, accurately breaking the chain wrapped around his ankles. At the same time, he pushed forward with his free left hand to stop his fall.

Although his reaction was very quick, revealing such a big flaw on the battlefield was extremely fatal.

Before Neville could react after falling to the ground, Draco stepped forward and pointed the wand in his hand at the back of his unprotected neck.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

A slow round of applause came from the side.

Noah came over from the side. "It's a very wonderful Transfiguration spell. When fighting the enemy, you must not be careless and fail to guard against the situation behind you."

The second half of his sentence was addressed to Neville.

"When you are not sure what the spell the other party cast is, how can you judge whether the other party's spell was truly dodged by you or deliberately missed it?"

Draco reached out and pulled Neville up from the ground.

Although he lost to Draco, Neville was not upset at all. He just grinned foolishly and scratched the back of his head, nodding repeatedly at Noah's comments, looking like he was willing to learn.

"I see."

Noah glanced at his watch, "Well, curfew is almost here."

Before leaving the Room of Requirement, Draco suddenly stopped and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

"Noah..."

"What's wrong? Just tell me what's going on."

"Although this question is very presumptuous, I still want to ask, can we allow more students to participate in our special training?"

Without waiting for Noah to answer, Draco continued, "Ever since the basilisk inexplicably appeared on the Quidditch field, the students have always wanted to be as strong as you to protect themselves."

"Two classes of magic offense and defense a week are still too little. Although they all think they have gained a lot in class, in fact they have not made much progress."

Neville beside him nodded in agreement, "Hannah and the others are asking me the same question."

Noah tilted his head as he looked at his two future right-hand men.

"Of course, but the existence of the Room of Requirement cannot be easily exposed."

"If we want other students to participate in our special training, we must find another gathering place."

It seems that it is necessary to put the matter of opening the duel arena on the agenda as soon as possible after talking to Lao Deng.

Otherwise, given the efficiency of the Hogwarts school leaders, it would take an unknown amount of time for the dueling arena to open.

Before the matter of the duel arena is settled, he may be able to recruit a group of reliable students in advance and win them over to his side.

It's time to establish a branch of Kamar-Taj at Hogwarts.

In this way, his future team would not consist of just four lonely people.

As his influence in Hogwarts gradually spreads, he will be able to use this as a basis to extend his tentacles through these students to their parents and even the entire wizarding world.

Chapter 102 If you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid of traveling around the world.

The third day of the Quidditch pitch incident was Monday.

No matter how serious the basilisk attack

It's a big deal. Even if the resurrected Voldemort gathered thousands of Death Eaters to attack Hogwarts, this course would still have to continue after the battle.

Professors, despite pressure from shouting letters from parents, continued to teach courses even when half of the students were absent.

Even Dumbledore didn't have a better solution for these petrified students.

The basilisk's gaze is a very deadly special magic. These students are lucky because the mist cast by Snape weakened the power of the basilisk's gaze for them.

This saved their lives and they were merely petrified.

Even Dumbledore with the Elder Wand couldn't remove the petrification of the basilisk's gaze. The only way now was to wait for the mandrake in the greenhouse to mature.

Mandrake is the most important ingredient in a high-level potion called "Recombination Potion".

The Reconstruction Potion is a very advanced antidote that is very effective in removing certain black magic effects, such as the petrification of a basilisk.

On Monday afternoon, when Noah had finally finished the boring History of Magic class and was about to go to the library to borrow some books on wand making to continue tinkering with some strange new wands, Professor McGonagall stopped him in the corridor outside the library.

"Mr. Shafrin, could you please come to my office?"

The older cat lady looked at Noah with a look of maternal love in her eyes, just like a kind mother looking at her own son.

Noah, whose mind was still focused on wand-making, did not notice Professor McGonagall's gaze.

"Oh okay, Professor McGonagall."

Following Professor McGonagall on the way to her office, Noah asked, "Professor, is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

Noah is a very polite child when facing other professors except Snape.

The usually serious Professor McGonagall did not have a stern face as usual. She smiled gently.

"During this period, you have made a lot of suggestions for Hogwarts' teaching methods. I came to you mainly to discuss with you whether there is anything that can be improved regarding the current teaching of Transfiguration."

Teaching Transfiguration?

Noah thought about it for a moment, remembering that this was part of his confinement.

If Professor McGonagall had discussed other things with him, such as some advanced theories of transfiguration, he might not have been able to answer.

But for him, who had once been personally taught by the Supreme Sorcerer Gu Yi, wouldn't it be an easy task for him to criticize the backward teaching methods in the magic world?

"Excuse me, but there are indeed some major problems with the current Transfiguration teaching."

Apart from anything else, in her first Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall directly asked the students to learn how to transform matches into silver needles.

For many years, her first class has always been like this.

Let me ask you, in the entire wizarding world, except for a few top students with terrifyingly exaggerated talents in Transfiguration, who else can complete such an operation at this point in the first class?
