Hermione, Be the Minister of Magic with Me!

■

Anthony woke up like a dream, and the position facing the Billywig was just one point: "Flying sand and stone!

This spell is really not difficult, so even if it was the first time, Anthony used it.

But this little bug that came from Australia was far more alert than everyone imagined. The moment the air expanded, it sensed something was wrong and flew back immediately.

Naturally, the sand-flying and stone-flying technique released by Anthony fell into the air, and the aftermath of the air explosion hit the protective cover. And the golden protective cover just flickered, and there was no unnecessary reaction from Yu Renhe.

"Oh oh oh, that can't be done!" cried Lockhart, "remember what I just

If you're talented, you don't have to hit it, you drive it where you want it to go! "

Chapter 23 Classroom Exercises (Part 2)

Hearing Lockhart's reminder, Anthony remembered his original responsibilities.

"But, Professor, what to do?" he asked stupidly.

No wonder he was confused, because that little blue bug was just too flexible. Even though he used area magic, it was still very difficult to hit that little bug.

"Observe! Try! Think! The last is to ask." Lockhart opened his mouth and was a set of three companies: "Observe the trajectory of the 'enemy', try all the weapons in your hand to deal with it, and then think about how to target the opponent. The behavior pattern achieves your goal... If it doesn't work, ask me again, and I will give you a basic method

Hearing him say that, Anthony and Harry had to stare at the blue bug that kept flying over the classroom and start thinking about how to deal with it.

The classmates who were watching the outside of the protective shield on the sidelines also heard what Lockhart said, so they got together in twos and threes and wanted to discuss a solution.

Seeing them like this, Lockhart decided to put a little more pressure on them.

He shouted to Harry and Anthony: "Don't blame me for not warning me, if I don't catch it within three minutes, I'll put a maddening spell on the Billywig - then it will no longer be afraid of people, but Attack differently.

While being stung won't make you lose consciousness, the feeling of being in the air all afternoon, being carried away like a balloon, will definitely not be your wonderful I'B for years to come. "

Hearing what he said, Harry and Anthony both felt tight.

"I probably understand a little bit." Harry said to Anthony in a hurried tone, "Flying sand and stones are not used to attack, but to drive away, we have to find a way to force

it comes down. "

"How?" Anthony didn't want to be the laughing stock of the whole school.

"Since we are going to force it to come down, the two of us will continue to cast a spell over its head to prevent it from flying upwards, so that it will fly lower and lower, while the other person presses it laterally and pushes it down. The space for activities is getting smaller and smaller..." Harry explained his thoughts.

As expected of Ravenclaw, Anthony understood what Harry meant in a blink of an eye: "You mean, it's like a Quidditch hawk-head tactic to contain the Quaffle from several directions."

"Yeah, that's what I meant," said Harry. "I'll catch it when it's within six feet of me."

"Can you catch it?" Anthony asked suspiciously.

"I'm a Seeker...you know what I mean." Harry wasn't very good at such boasting.

"I see... It seems that Zhang is in trouble this year." Anthony sighed. "Zhang? Who is that?"

"Our Seeker this year... well, hurry up, I don't want to be the slowest one," Anthony said.

Due to the lack of time, the two of them started to divide the labor immediately after the discussion was settled. Anthony was responsible for releasing sand and stones over the Billywig bug, while Harry was responsible for casting a spell at the far corner to force the bug down.

And Harry is worthy of being the youngest Seeker ever at Hogwarts, and when the bugs are flying, he is almost motionless, until Billywig flies by his ear to avoid the wand-wielding Anthony. When it was out of date, he suddenly shot and grabbed the bug.

Because of being too excited, Harry accidentally pinched the bug to death

"Sorry, Professor Lockhart." Harry was a little embarrassed.

Lockhart said he didn't care at all: "It doesn't matter, I still have a lot of this, and the Duke of Honey will buy a lot of needles for this thing."

Then, he removed the protective cover and began to teach other students a lesson.

"As you can see, Mr. Potter and Mr. Goldstein have used their strengths reasonably - that is, one of them is agile enough, and at the same time relies on limited space and spells to drive this poor bug to his death. , the last hit. They made a very good demonstration for everyone, and also added 5 points to Gryffindor and Ravenclaw.

Now please start grouping. Just like before, you must find your partner among the students in another college to complete the next course together. "

With the demonstration just now, the second-year students suddenly had confidence in their hearts, and the relationship between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw was not bad, so they quickly found their own combination, And the competition started.

Lockhart himself stepped aside, took out a quill and a roster of students, and recorded their own characteristics and spellcasting characteristics while observing the process of the students in class.

For example, Seamus Finnigan is good at all magic spells related to explosions. After using it a few times, the bug was hit by the aftermath of the shock wave and fell to the ground.

Neville Longbottom was a little clumsy in his movements, and he was very slow in learning spells, but he trusted his teammates very much, was diligent, didn't slack off at all, and was careful enough. He formed a crossfire together under the command of another pure-blood family, Teri Bout, and pushed the bugs into the dead corner a little bit, and Teri's sense of space is also the second grade that Lockhart has seen. Best in life.

As for the two Patil sisters, they cooperated the most tacitly - they were obviously sisters, but they were assigned to different colleges. This situation is indeed very rare.

Of course, what Lockhart admired the most was Hermione, who used the

After several spells, she asked her teammates to use flying sand and stone, and then she summoned a small whirlwind to drive the insects into a dead end; finally, she used clear water like a spring, and shot down the insects directly with a stream of water. And the whole process is simple and neat, very ornamental.

And Lockhart also added a lot of remarks for her without hesitation - smart, agile, knowledgeable, knowledgeable, and the number of spells she knows far exceeds her peers, even among the third graders. By.

"You're bound to be the best witch of the decade." Lockhart remarked decisively on her, "and probably the best wizard."

Hermione, who was praised by Lockhart, became beaming, and she looked even happier than standing in front of her parents with "excellent" grades in the whole course.

But even Hermione wasn't the fastest of the group in today's class.

The person who caught the bug the fastest was not the so-called "excellent student" at all, but Ron Weasley, whom Lockhart had never thought of before.

Just after Ron's partner Lisa Du Ping uttered the first sentence, Ron frowned, raised his hand to a certain position in the middle of the classroom, and hit it with a repelling spell.

I saw a blue light flashing in the air, and the Billywig worm seemed to take the initiative to meet it, and was shot down from the air by Ron's repelling spell. The whole process took less than 10 seconds.

Lockhart was shocked, and his slightly opened mouth did not close for half a minute. If most of his classmates had the same expression, he would have been found to be gaffe.

After coming back to his senses, Lockhart immediately turned his head to look at Ron's location: "How did you do... oh?"

It turned out that Ron had been lying on the ground at some point, and when Lockhart turned around, he

He was trying to sit up from the ground with a grin.

Lockhart hurried to pull him up.

Ron accepted his kindness, and after standing up, he patted his ashes.

"My wand... was interrupted by the punching willow." He said to Lockhart embarrassedly: "When I used the knockback spell just now, half of the spell bounced back."

"This is even more powerful." Lockhart wondered: "How did you manage to hit a target flying in the air with a half-broken wand?"

"How did you do it?" Ron was a little confused. "Just...seeing where it flew, I felt it would fly there, so I chanted the spell there."

After hearing this answer, the students became more and more dumbfounded.

Lockhart wasn't much better: "That is to say, you just guessed where that little bug would fly to next moment?"

Ron nodded as a matter of course: "Because it can only fly forward, and it won't turn more than two consecutive turns, just get it right."

This special talent left Lockhart speechless for a while.

Just as Harry Potter inherited the Potter family's talent of "dexterity" and Seamus was naturally sensitive to explosions; the Weasley family is also blessed with eyesight and prediction.

Whether it's Charlie, the twin brothers, Ron or Ginny, the whole family is almost all excellent Quidditch players, and using this talent for spell confrontation is that the accuracy of spell casting and the ability to predict it are astonishingly high.

In "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", this talent of Ron has been reflected many times, and unlike Harry who needs a big move to avoid the spell, he only needs a slight dodge to dodge every time. Open the spell fired at him.

"Excellent." Lockhart praised without hesitation, "you should

Going to a Quidditch team to compete for the goalie or Seeker spot is an important, if not immediate replacement for an existing player. "

"I will." Ron was overjoyed, this was the first time he had been affirmed by a professor.

Lockhart made good on his promise, not only giving Ron 10 points, but also stuffing into his hand a large amount of zizi bees that he ordered from the Duke of Honey.

As for the heartworm, Honey Candy Lockhart, he also did not forget, he also handed the candy to Neville and the others as agreed.

"You don't have to eat it in class, it's a joke." Lockhart smiled comfortingly, "You can go back to the dormitory and eat it again, except that it will make you cry for three minutes, its taste is not bad. good."

"I'm so stupid," said Neville gloomily. "Let's just eat here. I deserve it."

"Nonsense." Lockhart retorted, "You just don't have the talent for it. There will always be one thing in the world that is most suitable for you to do."

In order to prove that he really thought so, Lockhart raised his hand and motioned for everyone to come closer.

"If someone feels that their performance today is not satisfactory, it is a very normal thing. Because people's talents are inherently varied, and each has its own emphasis.

Even the greatest wizard, Dumbledore, has something he can't fight. And the seemingly mighty Voldemort (whose pupils from wizarding families stared wide-eyed) was only good at coercion, coercion, and in other respects he was lackluster, and I bet he didn't even understand the nature of power.

So instead of saying that the world is mediocre, it is better to say that there are as many kinds of "strong" as there are types of people in this world.

And I, Gilderoy Lockhart, this year's task is to make your "strong"

J—Find out, no doubt, if in the end you don't discover your strengths, then the responsibility must lie with me, not you.

get out of class now! The homework is an exposition of several methods of using AE magic to block the enemy's position, as well as your personal understanding of the duel method. It is good to write five inches in standard font size, and it will be handed in in class on Friday. "

Chapter 24 Transcription Spell

After the Defence Against the Dark Arts get out of class, Harry, Ron, and Hermione prepared to go to the Quidditch pitch for a walk, and reminisce about the experience of the class just now.

"I thought I was going to teach how to duel directly like sixth grade." Ron kept chewing candy in his mouth, so that he was a little confused when talking to Harry, "It turned out to be just a little trick, but I like it."

"Maybe it's just because we're only in second year?" Harry guessed. "It's an interesting class though, isn't it, Hermione?"

But then he found out that Hermione was staring at Ron with an almost hatred look, and Ron himself was still unaware.

Seeing Hermione staring at him, Ron took out two more pieces of candy from his pocket:

"Hermione, do you want candy? I've got a lot more here."

"No!" Hermione replied angrily.

If it wasn't for Ron's sudden emergence, Hermione was the fastest in the class to catch the Billywig bug, and the chance to get the sugar from Lockhart would be hers.

She didn't want to eat other people's "trophies".

Harry hurriedly rounded up: "Didn't Professor Lockhart say that there will be other tests in the future? I think there will always be one that is most suitable for Hermione."

But Hermione was still sullen: "But I was going to win all the first places.

Ron laughed: "No way, I've already won a first! Oh, I suddenly remembered, and this is the first first in my life... Hermione, you are right, this is He's an excellent professor, and I think I'm starting to like him.

Hermione responded shrewdly: "Professor Lockhart is good or not.

With your comment, I bet you don't even know how powerful the protective shield he used in class was. "

"I really don't know that, but I know I'm number one right now, and even 'the best witch of the last decade' isn't as good as me. "

Ron's series of unemotional speeches were immediately met with hostility from Hermione - she didn't want to accompany Ron to the Quidditch pitch for "trial training".

Brother Zhi, you have a nice afternoon. she said, "I'm going to the library.

After that, she walked towards the main castle building without looking back.

"So do you." Ron beckoned to her back. "It would be even better if you could finish your homework too."

Turning around, Ron began to greet Harry again: "Let's go too, they have three Chasers, but only Wood as a goalkeeper, there must be no one in training... Listen, you have to help me , buddy, even if it's for the sake of playing with you during the summer vacation..."

Harry was a little uneasy.

Years of observant experience at the Dursleys taught him that it's not a good thing to get angry for no reason, especially when you're still asking.

"I don't think by the end of the month she won't be borrowing our homework again," Harry lamented.

Hermione came to the library angrily with her homework, and swore to herself that no matter how much Harry and Ron begged, she would never borrow homework and notes for them to copy this semester.

Then she found someone there, someone she hadn't thought of.

"Professor Lolo Lockhart!" she stammered, "Why are you here?

inside? "

Seeing Lockhart looking at her in surprise, she realized that there was something wrong with her words

"I didn't mean that, I mean, you should have..."

"The Hogwarts collection cannot be read in seven years," Lockhart answered her question.

Hermione was right when she thought about it—even if she could read a book in one day, it would only be about 2,000 days after summer vacation in seven years, and Hogwarts had more than 2,000 books.

"You're right, but I thought..."

"Don't forget, there are some books that I couldn't borrow when I was a student." Lockhart winked at her again.

He was referring to the forbidden area.
