The Dark Lord at Hogwarts is not too cold

When the little wizards were in class, they didn't know what happened in Diagon Alley:

The Leaky Cauldron Bar of Hannah's family is famous, and War Chess beats all the entertainment in Diagon Alley with an absolute cost-effective advantage, especially on Christmas night, when the lights of the bar are kept on all night.

During the Christmas holidays throughout Diagon Alley, the lights of the Leaky Cauldron could be seen tens of meters away.

"No way? You don't really think that this kind of pirated war chess can beat Star Wars, do you?" A drunken wizard threw the wizard war chess on the table and mocked disdainfully, "Sorry... The Sith Empire No. [-] in the world!"

It is impossible for wizards to stay at home during the two-week Christmas holiday, so...Cyrus' game of war came out.

Some wizards who bought 'Wizard's Battle Chess' found that what the Malfoy family released was just a bunch of replies: expensive, not fun, and nothing new.

Can you imagine?That chess piece is a wizard chess piece with a different skin!Even the chessboard didn't change much, just some decorations, not like the one in the tavern at all, and there was a huge sand table.

"When you play games... you have to smile, and you have to smile when you buy something," his friend comforted him.

But it's a good thing, at least... They have someone to help test the poison.

Even though Cyrus's game is now only sold at the Leaky Cauldron,...they'd rather make the extra trip than pay four times as much for a set of wizard chess.

What?The pawns of the Malfoy and Greengrass families can cast weakened spells...they are wizards themselves!Why do you want to see Shiqi holding a spell and sending out sparks?

Sorry, they loyally chose Dwarf King Thorin Oakenshield and Sith Lord Darth Vader, and stood firm on the high ground.

Tom Humber's face has been laughing since Christmas, and sometimes he is almost overwhelmed. Just selling the most profitable butter beer, he can earn ten to twenty Galleons a day. ..

Of course, fortunately, he didn't know that his daughter also took [-]% of the profit from war chess.

After Christmas, everyone smiles, except for the purebloods...  

"Smash it! You messed it up!!" Rebe Greengrass dropped the wizard chess in his hand to the ground. It was the oldest prototype of Lewis chess, and a few of them were still circulated in the Muggle world.

Sitting across from him was Lucius Malfoy, who was just propping up a silver cane, and seemed to be resting with his eyes closed.

"What's the matter now? I don't remember when I offended those professors in Hogwarts..." Leibei is one of the developers of wizard chess, and their family quickly gained a foothold in the wizarding world by relying on wizard chess in the early days. feet.

But now...it seems that the status has been shaken.

And don't blame them, after all, Wizard Chess was invented centuries ago.

What remains the same and has no innovation will always be eliminated. The moment wizards see new things, they will naturally discard and eliminate the old ones.

"Obviously it's not just chess pieces, Lebe...have you seen the way Muggles travel now?" Lucius asked back.

"carriage?"

"Oh... I don't know, it's an iron box called a 'car'. I heard that last year Weasley modified it. It's just that the 'running on the ground' becomes 'flying in the sky' of'..."

"What's none of my business? You're the only one in pure blood who pays attention to Muggles." Lebe smiled sarcastically, and sat down and poured a glass of red wine, crossed his legs, and shook the glass lightly.

"I mean...they invented something with a core, something completely new"

Lucius explained impatiently, he really wanted to pry open the opponent's brain with a knife to see if the gears inside were rusted.

It's an obvious fact: Cyrus's 'game of war' is more than just wizard chess.

Brand-new entertainment, brand-new gameplay, including the stories and backgrounds behind these hero units... Lucius couldn't believe that all this was something that an underage wizard could come up with.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed a black object from a pile of stormtroopers on the table. It was polished very finely, and the black streamer felt unexpectedly comfortable to the touch.

"So? Are we going to be like those mudbloods and pure-blood traitors? To use Muggle stuff? How disgusting..."

"Compared to these, you might as well think about... what they will do after they complete the basic accumulation..." Lucius looked at Darth Vader in his hand, his reflected face on the black triangular window is shrunk.

"Would you like..." Leibei waved his hand, and drove the other servants of the Greengris family out of the room, and then made a gesture of 'cutting the throat'.

"Idiot, do you want to completely anger Dumbledore??"

"Then what should I do? I'm telling you! Lucius! I won't let such a group of people squeeze my cake!" Lebe cursed at the group of inventors, "My wizard chess has stopped producing several pieces in a row. month"

Because of manpower, Greengris stopped the production of Wizard Chess, and because of Lucius' cooperation, he shifted his focus to an alternative 'Wizard Chess'.

"Lebe, I just provide funds for cooperation, research has nothing to do with me"

A set of wizard chess has a very long lifespan, so if most people can't afford it, they can transfer it to second-hand, and some can even pass on the wizard chess.

Ron Weasley's old wizard's chess game was taken from his grandfather.

Therefore, one of the income of the Greengris family was cut off, and they did not update it. In addition, the British magic world is so large, and the scope covered is not very wide.

They're not like Malfoy... who can rely on Muggle-backed royals for gold.

"Heh... I just didn't expect that the 'Big Red' was also afraid of Dumbledore"

The Greengris family had naively thought that there would be some changes after Christmas, but... just looking at Diagon Alley, the situation is not optimistic.

Lei Bei's provocation did not arouse very good results, good self-cultivation only made Lucius smile a little, and his eyes were always focused on 'Darth Vader'.

Wizard Chess?family?Lucius just wanted to use this to make Draco learn something, so he let him use the hands of the Malfoy family to dictate to Greengris.

Vaguely, he seemed to hear mechanical breathing.

Coupled with the fact that there were only some candles and the fire from the fireplace in the dim room, Darth Vader seemed to be staring at him, and Lucius seemed to be sweating from his back, soaking the silk shirt inside.

Like falling into an abyss, malice abounds.

"I said...can you turn off the sound?" Leibei sipped the warm red wine and called out to wake Lucius up.

"Hmm? Hmm..." Lucius twisted his neck and pulled off his collar unnaturally.

It's really weird... It's obviously a stone chess player with only sound activated, but it seems to be watching him through black apertures, like a pair of black eyes without pupils.

"How's your son doing?" Lei Bei tapped the table with his wand and emptied out all the garbage on it, "I heard that Xiaolong had a lot of fun with the mudbloods you followed."

He picked up the homework, and naturally talked about Draco's small group.

"Ah~ Those few are well protected under Dumbledore's wings...but the little dragon is still not very good"

"If you want a person to grow up faster, it's best to let him start a family and start a business, so...he will mature naturally, instead of fighting with mudbloods all day long"

"I need to clarify, they are not that simple"

Lucius glanced at him. If it wasn't for the lack of a good sales market for Cyrus and Hermione's items, the Greengris family business would probably be severely impacted immediately.

"It's just that they can't handle it, and Daphne only pays attention to her sister... Where is Narcissa? Has she met her sister?"

He saw through Lei Bei's mind at a glance: if he wants to get on line with the Malfoy family like the Black family, Greengris lacks money.

But... Lucius liked it, he liked to watch other purebloods do everything they could to get close to the Malfoy family, and compete with others for Malfoy, and then he would sit gracefully and watch.

It's like the Colosseum, watching them try to please the Malfoy family.

"After all, she is the most trusted person of that 'adult'~" Lucius praised the lunatic in a rhythmic tone.

"It's stupid enough to put yourself in it"

"Even though she's Narcissa's older sister, she's a bit stupid"
