The Admiral of Hogwarts

Because the system upgrade required a full day, Hugo, no matter how anxious he was to know what the upgraded system would be like, could only put it aside for the time being and join the conversation between Hood and Saint George. Soon, he learned a lot of information from Saint George's narration.

Unlike all the ship girls before, Saint George, as a blueprint ship girl named after a mythological story, possessed powers that other ship girls did not have. The fire dragon and steed phantoms beside her just now also illustrated this point.

According to her, what was condensed on her body was not only a part of the legend of that warship, but also the legend of that saint. This also led to her mastering the power of the namesake saint in addition to the common power of the ship girls.

"I am proficient in using most cold weapons and can summon steeds or dragons as my mounts," Saint George began to introduce her unique abilities. "In addition, I also master divine power, which can be regarded as magic with some special attributes."

Hugo was a little shocked to hear Saint George say this. After all, in his impression, ship girls were the incarnations of warships, and their own power should be related to science. The abilities displayed by the previous ship girls also reflected this. Therefore, after Saint George claimed that she had mastered some kind of divine power, he naturally felt that his worldview had been impacted.

Fortunately, he quickly reacted and realized that the existence of ship girls was unscientific in itself. Therefore, it was not surprising that ship girls who mastered special magic appeared. So, after simply calming down, he curiously asked Saint George about this aspect: "Then, what is so special about this special attribute of magic? Or rather, what is the biggest difference compared to the magic used by us wizards?"

"The main difference is that this kind of magic is more troublesome when running ordinary wizard magic. Under the same conditions, the magic consumption is greater, the magic takes effect more slowly, and the magic effect is also worse."

"Uh, sounds terrible." Hugo's words came from the heart. He didn't expect that sometimes special magic would bring negative effects instead of positive effects.

"But my mastery of this divine power also has a powerful side." Seeing the expression on her admiral's face, Saint George immediately explained. "First of all, while mastering this power, I have learned corresponding magic. These magics are basically related to combat and have additional damage to all magical existences. For example, fire dragons, giants, and even wizards."

"Sounds amazing." Hugo nodded in admiration. Obviously, the power that Saint George now possessed was a power specially enhanced for combat, so it was understandable to give up its performance in other aspects.

"It's not just that." Hood, who had just communicated with Saint George through the admiral network, said, "The more powerful point is that, as the patron saint of England, Saint George can obtain a great combat bonus as long as she is on this land. At least in my opinion, she can easily defeat those professors at Hogwarts here."

Because Firefly and Veneto had been in the school all the time, the ship girls also roughly figured out the magic level of the professors during the class. Although it was not very accurate, it would not be too far from the real situation.

"What about Professor Dumbledore?" Hearing Hood say this, Hugo excitedly asked. For him, if his side had a top combat power comparable to the most powerful wizard in the wizarding world, then many things might need to be re-planned.

"This is not very certain. After all, the ship girls have not had close contact with the headmaster. Therefore, it is impossible to determine the specific level of this white wizard, who is known as the most powerful in the magical world," Saint George said, "But I think—I think if I am on the land of England, I will not be afraid of any challenges."

"Unfortunately, Hogwarts is in Scotland." Hood shrugged on the side and said, then turned to look at Hugo. "So, as I said, let's continue to slowly accumulate strength according to the original plan. Although it may seem a bit unenthusiastic, for our goal—"

"I understand." Hugo nodded and said, "Any plan should minimize the number of modifications as much as possible unless it is necessary. I was indeed a little excited just now."

After the three of them chatted for a while, Saint George returned to London alone. Then, Hugo and Hood went to Windsor Park to meet Hermione and the others.

"How did you feel about those churches just now?" After Hugo and the others returned to the team, Hermione leaned to her side and asked. "Belfast has been telling us about the history and allusions of Windsor Castle here. I find it very interesting."

"I have also gained a lot here." Hugo said with a smile, and then recounted the information that Hood had passed on to him through the admiral network. "For example, I now know that St. George's Chapel is the royal burial ground and the place where the Order of the Garter is awarded. The most special thing is that the only responsibility of the clergy in this church is to pray for the monarch and the Knights of the Garter—"

In the midst of mutual communication, they finished visiting Windsor Park and then returned to London together. And by the afternoon of the next day, Hugo, who was practicing fighting skills and magic release skills with Hood and the others, suddenly received a notice of victory, telling him that the system had been upgraded.

"Tell me quickly, what has changed after this upgrade?" At this time, Hugo had just finished practicing fighting with Firefly and was sitting on the sidelines to rest, while watching his sister sparring with Veneto on the field. So now he just had time to ask Victory what he had gained after this system upgrade?

"The changes are not very many, mainly two kinds." Because Hermione was also present, Victory did not appear here, but only told Hugo through the admiral network what the changes were after the system upgrade. "First, your body will be fully strengthened, making the strength about twice as much as it is now. Second, the system has opened up four new avatars that can be exchanged."

"New avatars that can be exchanged?" Hearing Victory say this, Hugo immediately checked it out. As a result, he found that all four avatars were primary avatars, namely an older admiral, a young Asian admiral, a diver, and a loli holding a small rabbit.

"Maybe next time there will be avatars with special skills." Hugo thought, looking at the lit avatars in the avatar pictures and the many avatars that were still gray. "If I can get the Ancient God Admiral avatar, I think my human combat power should not be much worse than those ship girls."

After thinking about these things, Hugo immediately felt full of hope in his heart, especially after knowing that the next reward would appear when 20 ship girls were summoned. Soon he felt that he had rested enough, so he stood up and walked with Firefly towards the ring, preparing to continue practicing.
