Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

Chapter 65 Course selection, speed is king

The hustle and bustle of Valentine's Day is just a small episode in campus life, except for Harry.

The hapless kid got stalked by a valentine dwarf and made a big joke, much to his humiliation.

But apart from this, there was no greater disturbance.

On the contrary, because of this farce, the little wizards didn't feel how scary he was, which was a blessing in disguise.

Then, the days passed day by day, everything in the school was normal, the project of the dragon farm was proceeding as usual, the progress was fast, the frame of the main structure had been erected, and all the magic materials to be purchased had been put in place.

It had been almost two months since Mrs. Norris and Peeves had been petrified, and everyone seemed to think that the attacker, whoever he was, was done for good.

In March a few mandrakes gave a boisterous, rowdy dance in the Third Conservatory, much to the delight of Professor Sprout.

"We'll know they're fully grown when they want to move to another pot," she told the little wizards in class, "and then we'll be able to bring those poor guys in the hospital back to life."

This news can only be regarded as a disaster for the little wizards.

Second graders have new things to think about during the Easter break.

They should choose third-year courses. This matter, whether it is from Clark or Hermione's point of view, needs to be treated with caution.

"This will affect your whole future," Clark said to Harry and Ron, as they pored over the new list of subjects and made notes on them.

"Why us, what about you?" Ron asked suspiciously.

Clark sat on the sofa, drinking black tea calmly, "Because I don't need to work in the future, no matter what course I choose, it won't affect my inheritance of the family business."

"Well, that's a really strong reason."

Ron's forehead was full of veins, and he had to admit that Clark's lazy look was really annoying.

Harry didn't think about it that much, "I just want to give up Potions."

"Impossible," Ron said in a depressed mood, "I have to take all the original subjects, otherwise I would have crossed out the Defense Against the Dark Arts class long ago."

"But that class is important!" said Hermione in surprise.

"Like Lockhart's teachings, I don't think so," said Ron. "I didn't learn anything from him except don't let the elves out."

"That's just you," Clark retorted. "If you read the book he wrote carefully, and remove some insignificant self-promotion, you can still see a lot of useful knowledge from it."

For this kind of advice, Ron, who never read much, naturally completely ignored it.

On the other hand, the elders of Neville Longbottom's family also wrote to him one after another, giving him many different suggestions on the issue of course selection.

Neville was also a little at a loss, but fortunately, he has learned to be smart now, and asked Clark directly, saying that everything is under his command.

Clark had an overall consideration for Neville's subsequent development, so he naturally tried his best to help him.

Others were not so lucky. Dean Thomas, like Harry, grew up surrounded by Muggles. He finally closed his eyes and used his wand to randomly click on the list. which course to choose.

Hermione chose to sign all the subjects like Clark did.

Harry wasn't sure about this either, his Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia didn't know anything about it, so it was useless to ask.

So he, like everyone else, turned to Clark for guidance.

"It depends on what kind of job you want to do in the future and what kind of life you want to live, Harry."

Clark seemed to be a teacher who chose a major for the college entrance examination, and began to impart experience to Harry, and some students on the side also gathered together.

"The wizarding world is a small society, and in this society, the magical knowledge and skills required for each job are different.

Unless you want to do some trivial work that can be replaced at any time, you have to plan early for the future.

To give a very simple example, if you want to enter the Ministry of Magic and become an official archaeologist of ruins, then you must be proficient in ancient runes.

And if you want to enter the dragon farm and become a dragon trainer, then you can't miss the upcoming Dangerous Magical Animals class at Hogwarts.

In addition, there is arithmetic divination, which is suitable for those who tend to enter the Ministry of Magic's astrology research room and are more sensitive to numbers.

Muggle Studies, suitable for those departments of the Ministry of Magic that need to deal with Muggles.

Introduction to Alchemy, as an advanced course in Potions, is generally the first choice for wizards who are about to enter a magic factory or start their own business.

..."

Every time Clark said a lesson, the little wizards next to him wrote down a sentence.

"So play to your strengths and plan your future, Harry."

Unfortunately, the only thing Harry felt he was really good at was Quidditch.

So after hesitating for a while, he still chose the same few new courses as Ron.

After all, he felt that if these courses were difficult to learn, at least he would have friends with him.

Seeing this, Clark didn't say much. It's normal for a child to have no plans for the future. He's not Harry's nanny, so why worry about it.

For him, there are more important things waiting to be done.

Although the school magazine and the dragon farm project are already on the right track, the duel club has just begun.

Because of Lockhart's poor debut, the Dueling Club's reputation among young wizards is not very good.

Only came once, and some senior wizards stopped participating.

And after losing face once, Lockhart quickly turned his attention away from the Dueling Club and gave it entirely to Clark.

This also happened to be in line with Clark's wishes. He was only in the second grade. If there were senior wizards, wouldn't they be able to convince the public?

Looking at the dozen or so little wizards in the first and second grades in the classroom, he felt that the scale was just right, and it wouldn't even attract the attention of the professors.

"Last time, Professor Lockhart told you how to use the Disarming Charm, I'm sure some of you have remembered it, and some may not.

But it doesn't matter, because we won't talk about that today. "

In the vacant classroom, the desks, chairs and benches had already been cleaned up quickly. On the newly laid wooden floor, some round soft cushions were scattered, on which the young wizards who came to the dueling club sat.

In a corner of the room, there are some wooden dolls used as targets and some protective equipment to protect the little wizard.

Clark stood on the podium that belonged to the teacher, talking with his hands behind his back, and he looked decent.

It's just that after he said these words, those little wizards who were sitting down and were a little impatient suddenly stood up again.

"Hmph, don't talk about that, what are we doing sitting here, are you tutoring with me?" He said, and left without looking back.

Clark didn't stop them, just stood there, and waited until he was sure no one left, then nodded and walked to the center of the classroom.

Neville took the initiative to walk in front of him, and the two took out their wands and stood face to face, as if preparing to demonstrate a wizard duel to them on the spot.

The young wizards in the audience watched with great interest, after all, they had seen how Clark crushed Malfoy last time.

However, they were disappointed. As soon as they finished bowing, Neville didn't even raise his wand, but Clark raised his hand, knocked him far away, and fell on the cushion.

"No way!"

"This is cheating!"

"That's right, it's not magic at all that someone can knock someone into the air just by raising their hand."

The young wizards sitting there were clamoring, Clark turned to look at them, this time he was not silent.

"Shut up!"

The yelling was not loud, but under the blessing of the [Shock] ability, those little wizards only felt that Clark's voice turned into a hammer, hitting their heads hard.

The room was silent in an instant, and it took a while for the little wizards to recover and looked at him with terrified eyes.

Until then, Clark said calmly: "Unlike Professor Lockhart, I have no obligation to teach you how to duel, so you will listen to me or not, and I will not stop you if you want to leave."

His attitude was so bad, but those little wizards sat more and more firmly, without any intention of moving their buttocks.

Seeing that there were no other objections, Clark said bluntly, "Who knows why Neville just had no power to resist."

"Also, what is the number one element in combat?"

The young wizards present looked at each other, and Ginny, who was sitting at the front, stood up and replied.

"It's speed!"

"Well said!" Clark laughed. "It's a pity that I can't give Gryffindor five points."

His jokes did a good job of relieving the tense atmosphere in the classroom.

Clark continued: "That's right, the first element of combat is speed."

"The magic in the world can only be broken quickly.

Wizard duel contests have been held for hundreds of years, among which there are not wizards who have not used powerful magic. ?

The hurricane that blows away the entire town, the meteorite that falls from the sky, the lightning storm that bombards indiscriminately, the extremely cold light that freezes in an instant, but these are all bowed to a small disarming spell, why, because of the speed!

Those powerful spells are really powerful. They can be said to be very effective in attacking cities and destroying the world. However, their activation requires a very long preparation time. Be applicable.

Moreover, powerful spells mean that more mana needs to be consumed, and they are more difficult to master. For those of you who have just stepped into the door of the magic world, wanting to use them is even more wishful thinking.

So that kind of simple, convenient, and quick-to-activate spell is your first choice in battle.

This will be what you can learn in the Dueling Club.

I will teach you how to release the spell more quickly, as well as some fighting skills, to help you adjust your state and become better. "

As soon as the words were finished, a Slytherin first-year student stood up.

"So you still only teach us the Disarming Curse? In the future, will there be no professors to teach us new knowledge?"

His words were very rude, and the little wizards around quickly moved their buttocks, for fear that Clark's anger would hurt them.

But Clark just twirled the wand in his hand and looked him up and down.

"I remember your name is Martin Greengrass, right? You can ask questions in my class, but remember to raise your hand next time.

As for what I teach, I naturally have my plan. If you think it’s not possible, you can either leave or beat me. "

The first-year freshman named Martin was defeated by Clark's gaze, and sat down obediently with his head down.

"Knowledge is priceless, but it also needs to be communicated. Among the people you left behind, some were born in pure-blooded families. You should know that all knowledge related to magic is precious.

Hogwarts didn't pay me a salary, so I can't teach you for free. "

The little wizards began to get restless.

"Of course, what the school teaches you is actually enough, so I will focus on the knowledge taught in the school, and it is not good to charge you additionally.

As for what to teach later?

When you duel with the enemy, whoever casts the spell first, then the half foot of victory will be on him... Why half? Can anyone answer? "

Ginny stood up again: "Because of counter magic!"

"Magic countermeasure..." Clark repeated, "Yes, in the confrontation of spells, defensive magic will have a protective effect on offensive spells, that is, only when the attacking spell breaks the defense of the defensive spell can it produce an effect .”

"But the magical defense of defensive spells, such as the Iron Armor Charm, is not a panacea.

This advanced defense spell has better effects on physical attack spells such as blunt weapon strikes, sharp weapon stabs, and heavy object impacts.

However, for elemental attacks such as Flame Curse and Ice Curse, the effect will be much worse, and it is extremely easy to be defeated.

So when you have learned the content of the first stage and know how to attack, I will teach you how to defend.

And when you have mastered how to attack and defend, I will teach you how to conduct real combat. "

The little wizards around began to breathe quickly. Compared to Lockhart's fancy, it seemed that Clark's plan was more feasible.

"I took over the Dueling Club from Professor Lockhart, not for fun or to be idle, but to find a group of excellent, like-minded friends.

Dueling is a lesson, an art of using magic, a knowledge that can be studied for a lifetime, it is strength, wisdom, courage, and perseverance! "

If you fail your Universal Wizarding Levels (o..Ls), or even the Ultimate Wizarding Levels (n.e..Ts.), you will simply lose your future.

But if you're unfortunate enough to lose a wizard duel, you risk losing everything.

And this is my advice to you. "
