The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 21 Gilderoy Lockhart

The first week of life at Hogwarts went on like this.

Strictly speaking, Hogwarts is indeed a very good school of magic. The teachers of several important courses are all adult wizards with superb spells and strong abilities (except for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class); the students' daily food and daily life are provided quite well, and living here is very comfortable; Hogwarts' library is also One of the largest libraries in Europe, with nearly 10,000 volumes of various books...

It was probably the complicated and troublesome stairs that made me feel a little dissatisfied.

There are 142 staircases in Hogwarts. Some of them are wide and big; some are narrow and small and rickety; some lead to a different place every Friday; some are halfway up and a step will suddenly disappear and you have to remember where should jump over...

But these stairs are also understandable things...

After all, the initial positioning of Hogwarts was not just a school, but also a fortress.

Before the tenth century AD, the Muggles (ordinary people) were all afraid of magic and persecuted wizards (witch hunts)... and those young wizards who had not received systematic education were not equipped to fight against Muggles. not to mention the magical races such as goblins, giants and werewolves, which are also eyeing the wizards and waiting for an opportunity to attack.

So Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin built the castle together as a school for young wizards , is also a bulwark that protects young wizards from persecution.

Countless secret passages and complicated stairs are precisely to prevent Hogwarts from being invaded one day, to protect young wizards and block foreign enemies.

It's a pity that I don't have a Marauder's map in hand (already in the hands of the Weasley brothers), and the basilisk is going to be at Hogwarts soon... Otherwise, Jon really wants to explore the hidden secrets of this school.

It is not easy to explore Hogwarts. Although the administrator Argus Filch is a squib, he knows more about the secret passage of Hogwarts than most students, not to mention that he still has one The extremely smart cat "Mrs. Norris"... It is very dangerous to try to violate the school rules in front of them.

...

Except for the four main courses of Transfiguration, Charms, Herbs and Potions (three classes per week), every Wednesday night, Jon and the others will follow Professor Aurora Sinista and observe with telescopes Starry sky, learn the names of different stars and the trajectories of planets.

...

History of Magic takes place on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, and the class is taught by a ghost: Professor Binns. His voice in class sounded monotonous and dull, making people sleepy...

However, Professor Binns' knowledge of the history of magic is almost astonishing. Jon once asked him a few questions in class about the International Law of Secrecy (1689), and he answered it with almost no thought...

From his classic clothes, Jon even suspected that he might be a figure who lived in the same era as the four founders.

...

The flight class on Thursday morning was the last thing Jon wanted to take, a class that Hufflepuff and Slytherin took together.

After his first flying lesson, Jon realized that his talent for Quidditch was almost nil.

In the first flying lesson, it took him about ten minutes to get the broom to fly into his hand... And during the flight, if Mrs. Hooch hadn't been quick-witted, he would have almost had to fight with the Hogwarts castle. Make an intimate encounter.

Zacharias-Smith was the top student in flying class, spending half an hour in the cafeteria starting at noon on Thursday, bragging about how great it was to fly, and how he was sure to be in second grade. Replacing Cedric Diggory as Hufflepuff's Seeker.

Jon's flying class was almost at the bottom of the class, probably the worst of all his classes.

The only gratifying thing is that Astoria's performance in the flying class was similar to his, and he was also a "chocobo" after riding a broom.

Chocobos are chocobos, but that doesn't stop Jon from ranting about the rules of Quidditch.

The other players worked so hard and scored 10 points at a time, the Seeker grabbed a snitch and got 150 points directly, and the game ended by the way... How is this going to be played? The other players worked hard for a long time, and the opposing Seeker opened the game and ended the game. Although it is normal for players in various positions on the court to be unequal, it is too miserable that the gap is so large.

More importantly, 10 points and 150 points are not all multiples of 10, and Quidditch won't get single-digit scores after 100 years, right? Then why add an extra 0 instead of directly using 1 and 15 points, because OCD means that you can't afford to hurt.

But it's quite normal, the Seeker position is tailor-made for the Savior:

You don't need to fight closely with other players, so you don't need a strong body, and a thin body can also be competent; a person is the soul of a team, the father of a team, the whole team will revolve around you, you If there is a problem with the broom or the Bludger, the two batters just ignore other people who come to be your bodyguards; by the way, personal heroism explodes the watch, and it is easy for one god to lead six pits, even if the teammates are all orphans, it is easy to help the ball. Team wins...

...

As for the funniest class at Hogwarts, it is undoubtedly the Defense Against the Dark Arts class taught by Gilderoy Lockhart.

Strictly speaking, Defense Against the Dark Arts is the main course that needs to be taken three times a week...but Professor Lockhart makes these three classes completely a joke.

Lockhart suffered a loss from the Cornish elf, presumably during his first lesson to the second-year students... By the time the first-year students had their first Defence Against the Dark Arts class on Wednesday morning, they were already There is no practical content anymore.

Lockhart just took out a stack of test papers in the stunned eyes of the first-year freshmen:

1. Gilderoy Lockhart's favorite color?

2. What are Gilderoy Lockhart's secret ambitions?

3. What do you think is Gilderoy Lockhart's greatest achievement to date?

4. What type of woman does Gilderoy Lockhart like best?

And so on, three whole pages of paper...

The last question is:

54. When is Gilderoy Lockhart's birthday? What is his ideal birthday present?

While writing the test paper, Jon expressed deep sympathy for the senior students who need to take the OWLs and NEWT exams at Hogwarts this year. Probably their scores in Defense Against the Dark Arts will be terrifyingly high.

Half an hour later, Lockhart collected all the papers and began to read them one by one in front of everyone.

"It's beautifully written, Mr. Hart! You actually remember that my favorite color is lilac." Lockhart said excitedly: "This paper can get 100 points... Hufflepuff plus five points!"

"That's okay?" Zacharis next to Jon gave him a suspicious look at him.

"Are you also a big fan of Professor Lockhart?" asked a Hufflepuff girl whose name Jon couldn't even name.

"Uh... well..." Jon shrugged.

Skip through Lockhart's "writings" and memorize the narcissistic personalities he expresses in them...it really doesn't take much time.

Moreover, Lockhart is not useless, Jon already has a plan in his heart.

While thinking about it, Jon tried to make himself more curious! Listening to Lockhart's boring bragging.
