Chapter 0396 One month after school starts
;
Dana was not disappointed. After overcoming their initial fear of the troll, the young wizards of the third and fourth combat groups continued to use indoor tables and chairs to deal with the troll. There is also mutual support and cooperation among the group members.
When the troll approaches some team members, other team members behind the troll throw chalk boxes or erasers at his head, irritating the troll and causing it to turn around and come over. When it is almost approaching, the other side The team members will do the same again.
The giant monster kept roaring in anger, but it was running back and forth amidst the constant provocations of the combat team, without any effective attack. The scene looked a little ridiculous.
Dana secretly praised that the two young wizards in the fighting team had made full use of the troll's low intelligence and vulnerability to head injuries and found a way to deal with it. Learn and apply the knowledge in the textbooks to actual combat.
Considering that these are still a group of first-year students who have not yet mastered the magic spell, this performance is particularly commendable. These are a group of young wizards with great potential, which also strengthens Dana's confidence in continuing to teach like this.
The performance of the first and second combat groups just now made him doubtful for a while, so that the church would not be overly impatient and overly motivated. But the performance of the third and fourth combat groups allowed him to see the hidden potential and plasticity of these young wizards.
Aborting the deadlocked battle, Dana gave each member of the third and fourth combat groups points, which made their faces light up and puff out their little chests with pride.
After the same free discussion, the fifth and sixth combat groups entered the battlefield. Based on the third and fourth groups, they added some routines and wanted to use the obstacles formed by tables and chairs to trip up the giant monster.
Although it failed, it took a step forward. Dana also happily gave them extra points.
After all the combat groups had fought for one round, he briefly summarized it, pointed out some of their mistakes during the battle, then commented on their merits and highlights, and praised them highly.
After the bell rang, Dana left with a smile on his face, leaving the classroom to the jubilant students.
He was so happy not only because of the excellent performance of these students in fighting; but also because he found that his attempt to break the prejudices between the various colleges had hope of success.
While prejudices have not yet been finalized, let the friendship between common enemies and life-entrusted companions overcome the prejudices between colleges. He had witnessed this trend in their discussion before the battle, their cooperation during the battle, and their encouragement after the battle.
In the blink of an eye, two weeks have passed, and Dana has fully adapted to teaching work.
He also often encountered Professor Moody observing the castle and campus with his clairvoyant eye.
He was a little confused at first, but then he understood as the school's defense measures continued to strengthen. At the same time, I also completely understood the reason why Dumbledore hired two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors at the same time.
Trying to break the curse was just a joke on his part. Dumbledore's real purpose was to give the experienced Professor Moody more time to strengthen Hogwarts' defense.
Dana thought about it for a while and decided to secretly contribute. Ms. Hufflepuff is one of the founders of the school. Guided by her inheritance, the magic that built the castle and campus has almost no secrets in his eyes.
After thousands of years of time erosion, many of the magics have been damaged, so he tried to repair and complete some of them. But there are other magics that he can't do anything about, because they are unique magics belonging to the other three founders.
After this tinkering, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his understanding and sorting out of Ms. Hufflepuff's heritage had made rapid progress. Maybe it won't be long before the inheritance can be completely digested and absorbed by myself.
Dana didn't know the trouble his move caused to Professor Moody and Dumbledore: even though he didn't do anything else, the defense of the castle and campus was inexplicably strengthened, and Dumbledore also felt that the castle was running more smoothly than before. , smooth.
Now, he was listening to Harvey's report that another group of escaped prisoners had been captured and thrown back into Azkaban, which was taken over by wizards.
In fact, Dana got more information from Neville.
With the popularity of surveillance equipment in the magical world and the use of the magic painting mission system, the efficiency of Aurors in hunting down fugitive prisoners has been greatly improved. In more than a month since the beginning of the school year, all fugitive prisoners have been captured and brought to justice.
The anxiety and fear among the people in the magical world have eased.
But strangely, despite such a rigorous search, the whereabouts of Voldemort and his gang of Death Eaters were still not found.
According to the Ministry of Magic's surveillance of Old Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle, etc., Voldemort has not had contact with them, and it is impossible to hide in their homes. The entire Department of Law Enforcement was at a loss as to what to do.
Dana gave up after hearing this. Voldemort left it to Dumbledore to deal with, and he had to concentrate on dealing with the leader of the True School whose whereabouts were unknown. There are just no new developments in the close scrutiny of the Goldsteins.
Goldstein launched an investigation into the attack on himself and invited the Ministry of Magic to participate, but found nothing.
The broken disposable alchemical items were made of ordinary materials that can be found everywhere in the magic world, and the suspect cannot be identified through the materials; the alchemical patterns inside are also completely destroyed, and the genre and special techniques cannot be identified; there is no second person's magic power at the scene Residue.
The investigation could not proceed and ended hastily. However, Dana also learned through Mr. Longbottom that Goldstein did have an alchemical object similar to an eyeball, which was suspected to be able to detect traces of magic.
This made him feel lucky that he had been cautious in the past. Otherwise, everything is exposed now.
Another piece of news caught his attention. According to the wizards who took over Azkaban, something was wrong with the dementors on the island and they started killing each other. However, the wizards were happy to see this and did not interfere. It was best to kill each other until no one was left.
He was thinking whether this was a reaction after the underground abyss where the Dementors were born was destroyed, or whether it was the secret work of the leader of the Tru School hiding on the island.
Thinking of the leader's super strength, he couldn't go secretly like before. You should find a suitable reason and go to the island to explore the island openly. If you encounter the leader, you can also ask for help from other wizards on the island. It would be best to go with Dumbledore.
Just as he was thinking about it, little Joseph came to the door.
"Dana, I have something to ask you for help." Little Joseph directly explained his purpose without any extra courtesy. The expressions on his face were very complex, including excitement, fear, nervousness, and sadness.
He couldn't understand why little Joseph had such complicated emotions, but he agreed simply: "No problem, tell me what help you need from me."
"I want you to help me lift the curse." Little Joseph said eagerly.
Dana was a little embarrassed. Little Joseph left this matter to himself simply because he was blind.
He has never been proficient in curses. Although he has read a lot of dark magic books and the knowledge in the Hufflepuff heritage, he is much better than before, but it is too high-end to break a curse that even the basilisk can't do anything about. By myself.
