Hogwarts Card Drawer

Hearing the still emotionless electronic sound, Kronos was startled. He almost forgot that he had a system.

"Whether you come out or not, I will almost forget you." Kronos began to complain about the system in his heart.

His reply was still silence, and the system was still so cold. Kronos actually had a feeling of "Damn it, let it pretend".

Chronos and the others stepped up the stone steps and entered the castle. Enter through the majestic oak doors into a spacious and deep foyer. There were burning torches, and a magnificent marble staircase led upstairs.

On the right, the auditorium door is open. Chronos led the Slytherin crowd inside. It was as if he was the prefect of Slytherin.

Kronos also glanced at Gryffindor, not knowing that it was a problem with the candlelight. Or for some other reason, Chronos felt that Hermione was blushing. He was far away from Percy, so far away that Hermione would rather stay next to the Slytherins in the back than in front.

This is a world of pointed black hats. Every long table is lined with students. Their faces are illuminated by thousands of candles. Candles hung empty above the table. Professor Flitwick entered the hall carrying an old hat and a three-legged stool. Apparently he was the one to perform the sorting ceremony this time.

"Chronos!" Dumbledore's voice came from above.

Chronos stood up, he didn't know what Dumbledore wanted from him.

"Oh, there you are!" Dumbledore saw Chronos. "Come up, kid. Your seat is right there, next to your Headmaster." Dumbledore pointed to the seat on Professor Snape's left.

"What are you doing?" Kronos sat next to Professor Snape with a look of disgust, and the students in the audience began to chatter.

"Hello, Professor Slughorn." Snape's faint voice sounded in Chronos' ear.

"Don't be like this, Professor Snape. I'm still your student." Snape is really an old androgynous person, and you will always be yin and yang when you speak. Chronos rolled his eyes when he heard that.

The following sorting ceremony has begun, and the Sorting Hat has begun to sing:

That was more than a thousand years ago,

I have just been woven into shape,

There were four famous wizards,

Their names survive to this day:

Brave Gryffindor, from the barren swamp,

Fair Ravenclaw, from the peaceful river,

Kind Hufflepuff, from the open valley,

The shrewd Slytherin came from that quagmire.

They share a dream, a wish,

At the same time, there is a bold plan,

To bring up young wizards,

That's how Hogwarts was founded.

these four great wizards

Each builds his own academy,

in the students they teach

Valuable talents vary.

According to Gryffindor, the bravest

deserve the highest reward;

According to Ravenclaw, the most intelligent

always the most promising;

Hufflepuff felt that the hardest working

are most eligible for admission to the Academy;

And the power-hungry Slytherin

I like those ambitious teenagers the most.

The living years of the Four Wizards

Pick out the best students by yourself,

But when they sleep in Jiuquan,

How to pick out the talents among the students?

It was Gryffindor who figured it out,

He took me off his head,

The Big Four have injected me with ideas,

From now on, I will choose and evaluate!

Well, hold me well on the head,

I never looked away,

I want to see your mind,

Find out which academy you belong to!

The Sorting Hat sang a different song every year, and Chronos suspected that it would work just once throughout the year, so there must be enough time to think about the song for the new year.

The sorting ceremony has begun, and Professor Flitwick is already counting names on the list. Chronos was not interested. The card drawing interface of the system has already appeared in his mind.

"Let's start! System." Kronos took a deep breath. Every time he draws a card, he feels like gambling. What cards he can draw depends on God's will.

The demand cards began to be shuffled, turned over, and finally three cards jumped out.

"The first one; Ice Stone Falling. An ice spell card that consumes a little mana. The effect is just like its name, summoning a bunch of ice cones to attack the enemy. A range-shaped attack card."

Kronos thinks it's okay, a little mana consumption. He is still acceptable.

"The second card: Flame of Hell." This card just consumed three points of mana, and Kronos knew that it was powerful. This is a regular fire spell card, which can summon a kind of fierce fire, which is a flame that cannot be extinguished.

Kronos felt that it was not very useful, and he could only release it once with his current magic power. If he couldn't destroy the enemy, he would have to stop.

Look at the third card again.

"Hell Snake Yan Lei". When I saw the name Chronos, I didn't want to read it anymore. It looked like a demon card. Kronos doesn't know how to use a single demon card now, and he won't touch anything that is life-threatening.

After he finished drawing three cards, the sorting ceremony was over. Professor Flitwick came out of the hall with the battered Sorting Hat in hand. At this moment Mr. Filch walked up to Professor Snape and leaned down to whisper to him.

Chronos vaguely heard the words, car, Whomping Willow. Then Professor Snape snorted coldly and walked out of the hall.

"Amen." Professor Snape crossed himself and prayed for Harry and Ron. Although he will not be expelled, there is something in Professor Snape's hands. That's what hurts the most.

At this moment Dumbledore stood up. Despite his advanced age, Dumbledore still gave the impression of being energetic. With a beard, gray hair several feet long, a hooked nose, and half-moon glasses, he is considered the most powerful wizard alive.

"Welcome," said Dumbledore, candles gleaming in his beard. "Welcome back to Hogwarts for the new school year. I have a few things to say, and I hope that after your rich dinner Say it before you're attracted..."

"We welcome our two new professors with the warmest applause," said Dumbledore.

"First of all, Gilderoy Lockhart. He will be our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this semester."

Only then did Chronos realize that Gilderoy Lockhart was on his far right. There was intermittent applause below, but it didn't affect Professor Lockhart at all. He still happily stood up and waved to the students below.

"Then the next one." Dumbledore continued: "After being certified by the Ministry of Magic, our magister Mr. Chronos Slughorn promised that I would be willing to serve as the professor of magic circles at Hogwarts."
