The days of drawing cards at Hogwarts

Tom's right eye was temporarily unable to see clearly, and a stream of blood flowed from the corner of his eye. He had just overused telekinesis, which put an excessive load on his eyes. Forcibly browsing a person's memory at once is a very unusual thing.

Something that consumes energy, even if it's just the crappy wizard Lockhart.

But when he saw the [Forgetting Curse Level 0 (0/100-0%)] in the magic column, he still felt that it was all worth it: he saved a lot of magic stones. The price-performance ratio of drawing Lockhart was really too low!

It was all for the Oblivion Curse. Tom felt that Lockhart, a "five-star" character, could not increase Tom's talents at all: spells, potions, divination, and transformation. Which one could he increase? None of them could, he could only bring

Get a five-star skill.

Isn’t it a bit of a loss to spend thousands of magic stones to extract it like this?

Fortunately, Tom used telekinesis to squeeze out this skill. Tom sat on the chair to rest for a while, and his eyes gradually relaxed. Although there were still a few ghosts flashing in front of his eyes from time to time, they were still better than before.

The condition has improved a lot.

He arranged the clothes of Lockhart, who was lying in a ball of mud, and put him in a nice posture. Then he turned into a basilisk and petrified him. Then he dragged him aside and waited quietly.

Several hours passed, and even though the expiration date of the Polyjuice Potion had completely passed, Lockhart remained completely unchanged, still retaining Tom's face. It must be said that Tom's face, coupled with Tom's carefully posed posture, had a certain

The peculiar, martyr-like beauty is almost like a real oil painting - it must be the change in temperament brought about by the unicorn form.

Tom knew that his guess was true.

A character petrified by a basilisk will have his or her metabolism stagnant, and the effects of Polyjuice Potion will remain until his petrified state is lifted.

Tom showed a happy smile: the last stumbling block in his way has been solved. This semester, he can let go and do a lot of things. As for the end of this school year, Tom looked at Lockhart's face in the mirror.

, eyes gradually become dangerous: It’s time to make all this public...

…

Monday is already the second week of school, or the third week to be precise, but September 1st is a Wednesday, and only half of the classes are in the first week, so it cannot be considered a full week.

Today, there are a lot of discussions in the school, and the topic is very clear. Lockhart, the famous Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, is about to start his first lesson of the school year. This "first lesson of the school year" has been postponed for more than a week.

Now it’s finally time to start!

Monday, first class in the morning, Ravenclaw/Gryffindor (second year), location: Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom on the third floor of the castle

The little wizards entered the humming classroom one after another.

"Neville, come here!" Ron called Neville and invited him to sit in the corner of the classroom with Harry.

"I have an intuition that Professor Lockhart is not very reliable." Harry sat at the farthest seat from the podium, trying hard to minimize his presence, "and whether he is reliable or not, he is in Lili."

Even the bookstore makes me feel very uncomfortable."

"It's like this. I don't know why, but when I mention him, I feel a slight sense of boredom. I don't know where the emotion comes from." Ron scratched his head and put his new wand on the table.

"My grandma is not very fond of him either." Neville sat in front of Harry and the others, "But to be honest, his experiences are very legendary."

Although Neville came late, he didn't have any trouble finding a seat. Today, almost all the girls from the two colleges sat in the front row, resulting in quite a lot of empty seats in the back half of the classroom. As long as he wanted to sit in the back, he couldn't.

Don't worry about not having any vacancies.

There are only a few people who have a negative attitude towards Lockhart, and most people are still looking forward to this professor. For example, Hermione and the others sitting in the front row have placed all the textbooks neatly on the table, stacking them up.

It became a tall pile, just like a high school student's desk.

"Why hasn't Professor Lockhart arrived yet? I didn't see him at the staff table during breakfast today." Mandy Bloch said to the roommates around her.

"I don't know, maybe you are preparing for today's class?" Several other people were also confused.

Hermione sat at the table alone, with a slightly sad face. She quietly said to her friends: "Has any of you seen Tom? I didn't see him at breakfast today."

Her roommate first teased her, and then said that she really hadn't seen him. Some people also went to ask Tom's roommates, and then they were surprised to find that no one had seen Tom today.

"Maybe he remembered something in the morning and went to the library?" Sue Li said with some uncertainty. "Maybe he was reading in the library and lost track of time - that's it. Then will he miss Lockhart?"

Professor’s first class?”

"That's really a pity..."

"Granger, why don't you bring him an autograph from Professor Lockhart?"

"Boys are not like us, Tom wouldn't like autographs——"

"Bang!" The classroom door was pushed open, and Lockhart dressed as Tom was standing outside the door.

Tom arrived a little late, but he wasn't late - isn't it common sense that the professor comes to class five minutes late and ends get out of class five minutes early?

Today he dyed the blond hair that disgusted him black, and wore a black robe, looking cool and handsome.

Tom stood outside the door with such a strong aura that the whole classroom was silent for a moment.

He strode through the aisle between the desks, with the hem of his black robe floating behind him. Every time Tom passed a window, he would wave his hand, and the window would suddenly close automatically. With the sound of windows closing, Tom

He walked to the podium, then turned around neatly and looked at the little wizards under the stage.

At this time, even if a pin fell to the ground, the whole room would be heard, and everyone held their breath. Most people even had a thought in their minds: Professor Lockhart, a bit like Snape.

!

"I am Gerald Lockhart, your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year." Tom deliberately emphasized his tone, and before the little wizard below could get commotion, he continued, "Today's first

The content of the class is a surprise exam. Everyone, put your books away."

The whole classroom was in an uproar, and everyone was shocked: Why is there an exam in the first class of school?!

The little wizards have never seen this scene before. And if you are going to take an exam, at least let us know in advance!

"Quiet!" Tom asked everyone to be quiet. "This exam will count towards the final grade."

Boom! The classroom was like a pan with water poured over it. Even Hermione felt a little dizzy: Is this considered part of the final exam? She hasn't reviewed it properly yet! And...

Tom ignored this, waved his magic wand, and dozens of test papers flew into the air and landed on the tables of the little wizards.

No matter how unwilling the little wizards were, they could only surrender, put away their textbooks, and then took out their quills.

"All questions are multiple-choice questions. Please write your answers within the brackets on the test paper. No points will be awarded if you write outside the brackets. Each multiple-choice question is worth 4 points. There are 25 multiple-choice questions in total. Correct answers will be worth 4 points. Wrong choices will be deducted 2 points.

There may be multiple answers to a question. If you don’t answer all the questions, you will only get half the points. If you don’t answer, you will get no points..."

Tom's voice was interrupted, "Miss Granger, what's the matter?"

"Professor, Tom didn't come today." Hermione raised her hands, her voice trembling nervously, "I don't know..."

"I understand, I will communicate with Professor Flitwick." Tom waved his hand and motioned for Hermione to sit down.

"The exam lasts for fifty minutes. No whispering. Okay, if there are no questions, let's start the exam!"

As soon as the words fell, all the students lowered their heads and looked at the test papers seriously, no matter how unhappy they were.

Harry naturally got the test paper, and he looked at the first question:

1. Among the following statements about Grindylow, the incorrect option is: (__________)

A. Grindylow was a famous dark wizard in the first half of the 20th century, who was eventually defeated by Dumbledore.

B. Grindylow is very aggressive and will attack both wizards and Muggles.

C. Grindylow likes to eat fish and will not attack anyone who falls into the water.

D. Grindylow lives in lakes across Britain and Ireland.

Harry scratched his head and felt that all four options were correct. It seemed to be written on Dumbledore's chocolate frog that his most well-known contribution was defeating the dark wizard Green in 1945... Who was Green? Is it Grindylow?

?

Harry was confused. He glanced left and right and found that many young wizards around him were already busy writing. He shook his head and turned to the next question.

2. In July this year, Damocles invented the wolfsbane potion, which can keep werewolves sane on full moon nights. I also introduced the werewolves in detail in my book "Wandering with Werewolves". The following is about

The correct statement about werewolves is: (__________)

A. There is no difference between werewolves and wolves.

B. Werewolves cannot choose whether to transform, and will forget their identity after transforming.

C. The werewolf can recall everything he experienced during the entire transformation process after transforming back into human form.

D. The Ministry of Magic’s rating for werewolves is four stars.

Harry: Mummy. I might be a Muggle.

Harry was a little horrified to find that he could hardly answer any of the questions! Harry was very confused, especially when he found that the young wizards around him, such as Ron and Neville, seemed quite confident.

Also, for those who live in the magical world, these questions should be common sense questions.

During the exam, Tom was not idle either. He wandered around the examination room, folding his arms and looking around as he walked. He stood behind Ron for a long time, finally sighed and left, scaring Ron.

I quickly went back and checked the questions one by one - I really found a lot of careless mistakes.

"Okay, there are ten minutes left in the exam!" Tom looked at the hourglass and said loudly.
