Azkaban: The Fifth House of Hogwarts

The auditorium was crowded in the morning of the new semester after Christmas. All the little wizards received a notice when they returned to school yesterday afternoon: tomorrow's classes were cancelled, and Hogwarts had a grand gift for everyone.

The little wizards were excited and excited when they got the news, and it was mentioned to them again by the misty lake that was forgotten during the Christmas holidays.

"I bet that what Professor Dumbledore is talking about later must be related to the thick fog on the shore of the Black Lake. Do you want to give it a try, Fred and George?"

Lee Jordan, who had his hair in dreadlocks, changed his hairstyle for Christmas. Compared with the previous dreadlocks, he looks much more energetic now.

"Is it necessary to make a bet on something like this?"

Fred complained as he rolled his eyes.

"Why don't you go make a bet with those bullies?" George pointed to the Hufflepuff table not far away, "That idiot Zacharis is trying to make people believe his lies."

"I wish you a full wallet." Fred also smiled, and he patted Li on the shoulder.

"But be careful about that guy being a renegade, even though he is quite rich." George also warned, his face full of teasing.

But after Lee Jordan left, the twins immediately changed their expressions. Sitting next to them was Percy, which was quite rare in this school.

Fred and George disliked Percy's insistence on studying, and Percy also disliked the twins' naughty behavior. However, after this year's Christmas, their relationship became much better.

Especially on some things, they have reached consensus and can even sit together and chat seriously now.

Sometimes a boy's growth doesn't have to wait until adulthood. One Christmas Eve is enough.

"Isn't Harry here yet, Percy?"

"No, I heard that he left early in the morning. Maybe we have to wait. Professor Dumbledore told us something after breakfast. Harry will not fail to come back."

"Things are getting bad."

The twins sighed, "Why did this idiot Ron make things like this? How could he say such things to people?"

"I don't understand either." Percy shook his head. As a member of the Weasley family, they did not develop awkward characters such as refusing to admit their mistakes under the education of Mrs. Weasley and Mr. Weasley. The words "have some backbone" are definitely quite appropriate in the Weasley family.

"Then are you still going to take care of it?" Fred asked with a frown, glancing at Ron who was sitting far away from them.

"Perhaps my mother's yelling letter can make him understand how to spell 'apology'. I originally wanted to ask Professor McGonagall for mercy, but what I heard at the door of the office was his unrepentant 'I'm not wrong'."

"I choose to give up."

Percy said a little coldly, the Weasley family is not rich, so each child has basically developed the habit of being independent. In a family with many children who cannot have a bowl of water, everything needs to be done by themselves. Fight for.

"Then let's talk to Harry. At least this way he won't feel so uncomfortable."

Although Ron was implicated, they had to wipe this guy's butt.

"Oh, here he is, with Rollo."

The sharp-eyed twins saw Harry coming in from the side door. He was chatting and laughing with Rollo. He didn't seem to be in a good mood that was affected too much by what happened yesterday.

The three of them hurriedly stepped forward, but before they could speak, Harry pulled them excitedly and said, "Rollo's experiment will be successful soon. I went to see it with him this morning. Acromantula, Human Head The cross-species fusion of the three creatures, the manticore and the fire crab, has made great progress. Although they died before breaking out of their shells, what we see is not a ball of rotten meat."

"Perhaps it also needs the help of potions or the mediation of magic. There will be a short burst of magic on the eve of hatching. As long as this small problem is solved, a new species will be truly born."

"A new creature that combines the abilities of the Acromantula, the Manticore, and the Fire Crab will be born. Although it may not be the most perfect, it can definitely become a symbol."

Rollo himself was also very excited about this matter. Since he needed to spend a lot of time studying the art of transformation, he was a little lax about cultivating creatures. However, after finding the right direction, the progress of his research improved rapidly.

"Then, congratulations."

The three of them had only heard about this incident, but no matter what, they still wanted to say congratulations.

"If it is Ron's matter, then there is no need to apologize to Harry for him. This is unnecessary. Fred, George, and Percy, as brothers, you have done enough, and these things are actually It has nothing to do with you, right?"

"Lu Wei's three heads have three different thoughts, which are divided into smart and stupid. What's more, between brothers, even twins who are connected in spirit, you two may not fall in love with the same girl, right? "

"George, who do you like?" Fred poked George's arm, "Angelina is mine, I have liked her for a long time."

"It seems that tastes are indeed different." George shrugged, "Maybe I need to wait, at least for now, I haven't met him yet."

"Then I wish you to be a happy single." Fred said with a wicked smile.

"I also wish you a life-threatening situation." George threw his elbow angrily.

"But Ron has gone too far." Percy frowned seriously, "I'm wondering if I should let Professor McGonagall confine him for a few more days and clean the toilet for a month in the hope that he can be cured. His bad mouth."

Ron, who was scolding Rollo and even the people around Rollo, offended not only Harry, but even if he was being selfish and thinking about his family, Percy thought he should say these things.

Compared with upsetting Rollo, letting Ron clean the toilet for a few more days would actually have much less impact.

"Okay, don't talk about this kind of thing during breakfast, Percy. The surprise that Professor Dumbledore is going to say later is something worth looking forward to. We can fill our stomachs quickly so that we can have the strength to cheer."

"I went first."

Rollo waved his hand and walked towards the Slytherin table.

Today, the elf prepared raw seafood porridge for him, and the owner of the Lolotto Bookstore prepared some serious oriental recipes for him. This world is completely different from the earth. Due to the existence of the magic world, the war in the ordinary world , economy and even national development have completely different trajectories.

However, due to an unpleasant war that occurred more than 200 years ago, the exchanges between the two worlds have always been intermittent.

The recipes translated by Rollo himself had nothing to do with war or conflicts, but the richness of the dishes on his table was a real change. Although it was a bit different from what he had eaten in his previous life, the taste of this hometown really filled Rollo's heart. joy.

He really wanted to see everywhere. The world was not just England, and it wasn't just Hogwarts. The world was so big, and there shouldn't be only these stories.

But the current predicament that he couldn't help himself made him helpless.

"Dragon..."

Rollo sighed, "Maybe I need your strength."

As breakfast was coming to an end, owls flew in and out of the open windows one after another, carrying snowflakes on their bodies and bringing in the cold winter wind outside.

The little wizards shook their bodies one after another and wrapped themselves tighter in warm and thick cloaks.

At the Gryffindor table, a sudden burst of whispers attracted the attention of many people.

"Maybe you should open it." There are not many young wizards who are still willing to talk to Ron, and the kind-hearted Neville is one of them. "My grandma once sent me a letter. I didn't care about it at that time. As a result, Terrible."

"Is there anything worse than going to the school hospital to clean the toilet for half a month?"

Ron, who looked a little weak, took the bright red letter from the mouth of his old owl Errol. He wanted to use magic to make it disappear. However, even if he took out his wand, Ron knew that he He even forgot the gestures for casting the cleaning spell.

'Do you shake your wrist after swinging horizontally or...'

Ron, who had given up thinking, looked at the red envelope that was starting to smoke and hesitated, but in the end, he could only grit his teeth and tear open the letter. Neville, who had been covering his ears for a long time, did not forget to tell the other students. They followed suit, but when a roar like a lion's roar echoed in the auditorium, all the little wizards sitting near them cast a grateful look at Neville.

"I received a letter from Professor McGonagall last night. Your father and I almost died of shame! We worked hard to raise you, but we never thought you would do such a thing..."

Mrs. Weasley's voice was a hundred times louder and echoed in the auditorium. Everyone who heard the voice could personally feel the anger coming from 'Mother'. If it were them... they I couldn't help but hug my arms tightly.

"...Smashing gifts and verbal insults. I never remember that your father and I once taught you to treat your classmates and friends like this. Where did you learn such dirty words and vicious slander!"

"I wouldn't be surprised at all if the school expels you for this. See how I deal with you then. You probably haven't even thought about how much you have brought bad luck to our family!"

"...You have disappointed me so much Ron. You must apologize for this and apologize to everyone you offended! If you don't behave yourself after this and follow the example of your brothers, we will immediately Take it back!"

The roar stopped, but the sound was still buzzing in the ears. The red envelope that had fallen from Ron's hand to the ground burned, curled up and turned into ashes.

He sat blankly, as if his soul had been washed away by the tide. Many people smiled. The sound of voices reaching Ron's ears made him almost want to run away, but his body that had lost all strength could only break out in cold sweat. There are no extra actions provided.

Fortunately, at this time, Professor Dumbledore walked out from behind the door next to the teacher's desk after everyone had finished breakfast. Along with him were dozens of professors, more than half of whom were unfamiliar faces, and some were very young. Very young.

For example, Charlie, who just graduated two years ago, has extremely eye-catching red hair. Although he is the youngest among everyone, Charlie's abilities are not bad at all. In more than half a year after graduation, he has passed the first-level dragon training exam. Teacher qualification certificate.

His outstanding spellcasting talent, solid knowledge reserve, and Professor Kettleburn's preferred teachings allowed him to unleash all his talents after entering society.

As Charlie, who was invited to join the professional Quidditch team, he has an extraordinary talent for controlling a flying broomstick. Riding a broomstick to ride a wild dragon is a skill that many people cannot learn even if they want to learn it.

If Charlie was good at chasing the ball instead of being a goalkeeper, maybe Gryffindor would have a few more Quidditch trophies.

I still remember Charlie’s senior students waving to him, and even girls blowing kisses to him. A handsome and excellent Quidditch player can always be remembered by others. After leaving school, Charlie When training the dragon, he was infected with a bit of wild unruliness, which made him even more brilliant.

When the commotion in the auditorium quieted down, Dumbledore said in a loud and clear voice:

"I think you are all very interested in the white mist on the other side of the lake, right?"

Dumbledore waved his wand, and countless rays of light were shed from the ceiling that would project the sky at night. A distant scene appeared between the long table in the auditorium and the seats in the classroom.

"Before revealing this secret, I have the honor to announce something to you. This year, 27 new professors have joined the Hogwarts family, but most of them are not responsible for teaching, but In order to take care of our new friends at Hogwarts——"

Dumbledore snapped his fingers, and a magical white mist surged towards them from the projection screen. But when the white mist dissipated, people found themselves as if they were stepping on the clouds, with the towering Hogwarts behind them. Castle, and a huge building complex appeared at the end of the white mist ahead.

There were many black shadows moving through the fog, but when the sun pierced the white fog and shone above their heads, the mysterious veil of the flying black shadows was also unveiled.

Fire dragon——

Dozens of healthy and strong fire dragons soared in the air, and the sunlight made their scales emit brilliant light. The fire dragons of various colors were either elegant, light, petite, or ferocious, showing off their charming and strong figures. The body together paints an original picture of fantasy and magic.

"The Hogwarts Fire Dragon Taming Research Base has been completely completed after several months of busy construction."

Dumbledore's voice came from the sky.

"This is the world's second largest but safest semi-open fire dragon research base built by the Fraternity and Guardian Foundation and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at a total cost of 500 million gold galleons."

"Hogwarts will open three new courses on fire dragon research, domestication and other related subjects in the third grade. Senior students don't need to worry. Anyone who has passed the Ordinary Wizarding Level Examination for Protection of Magical Biology and obtained an O ( Students with excellent grades can apply for a deferment of graduation to complete the study assessment of this new subject."

"We will also open the self-study examination channel for graduates, and those who meet the requirements can also enter the Hogwarts Dragon Institute to study."

"This is what I prepared for you, a belated Christmas gift. I hope you like it."

The white mist dissipated in an instant, and the little wizards found themselves back at their original positions, but they could no longer sit still. The noisy discussion did not stop for a moment, constantly echoing in the auditorium.
