Hogwarts card wizard

The second week begins.

The study progress is still tense, especially for Kevin and Hermione, because the two of them have chosen a lot of courses, most of which are compulsory courses for improvement.

In contrast, Harry and Ron were relatively relaxed, but such ease still made them breathless.

Before coming here, Ron said that after hearing about the way of teaching this semester, he said that it would be much easier than in previous years, but the fact is that he didn't see the ease, and he was even more nervous than the previous five years.

I was so nervous that even some original plans could not be completed.

Kevin has already applied to Professor McGonagall for Dumbledore's Army extracurricular training, and Professor McGonagall is very supportive of this learning method that can enhance students' abilities.

But because of intense study, everyone has no time to come here. Even if they have time, most people think about rest and relaxation.

Helpless, Kevin had to shelve this plan first.

Watch Malfoy!

This matter doesn't need to be asked, in fact, they don't need to monitor at all.During the day, Malfoy also "shuttles" among various improvement classes, and is under their noses every day.

Only at night, at night, Harry watched Malfoy through the Marauder's Map, but he never left the Slutlin common room at night.

But this is also good, at least they can put all their energy on their studies.

On this day, the four of them went to the improvement class at the same time.A class that Harry and the others liked very much in the past, but they were a little afraid of this year-Defense Against the Dark Arts!

This year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is Snape. Except for Kevin, the other three of the four, Harry, Ron, and Hermione are a little "afraid" of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

But they couldn't have other choices, because Defense Against the Dark Arts was crucial no matter from the current practical point of view or future work.

When the students came to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, everyone felt like they were in the wrong place.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom has large windows on both sides, which also makes this classroom always full of light.

But today everything has changed!

The curtains on both sides are all drawn, and the lighting tools are only candles, resulting in very dim light.There are many "weird" pictures hanging on the wall, horrific wounds, distorted bodies, a pool of unknown blood...in short, they are not normal things.

Kevin commented: "It seems that Professor Snape has already made his mark on this classroom."

Harry said speechlessly: "It's just that I don't like this mark. Why does he have to make the classroom look like a haunted house!"

Kevin smiled and said: "I don't know about this question, but experience tells me that we should seize the time to find a seat. Although this is not a Potions class, you must remember what happened in Potions class, right? !"

As soon as these words came out, everyone hurriedly found a place to sit down.

Being late is not a big deal at Hogwarts, as long as it is not the kind that is half a class late, the professors will say a word or two at most.But Snape's class was an exception. Not only was he late, even if he just turned the pages of the book, it was wrong without his permission.

Not long after everyone here, the door of the classroom opened.

Snape walked quickly into the classroom as usual, his robes fluttering behind him.

In Harry's words, it looks like a huge bat!

Like Potions class, Snape's class was never nonsense, and it was always straight to the point.

"Black magic! There are many varieties, many kinds, many changes, and no end! Fighting black magic is like fighting a hydra. Cut off a head and immediately pop up another, sometimes worse, two heads, or even It is more fierce than the original one, and more difficult to deal with."

"So, what you are facing is an unpredictable and indestructible monster!"

The professors of Defense Against the Dark Arts are the most frequently changed at Hogwarts, so each professor has a different description of the Dark Arts, but in general their conclusions are at least unified.

Both black magic is scary and evil!

But someone like Snape who talked about the Dark Arts in a tone of "admiration" was the first.

Just like Snape's introduction to potions when they first took potions class, it seems that Snape can always find two sides of things, and can describe it like a delicacy, which makes people eager to taste it Fan.

"Who can tell me how to resist black magic?" Snape asked.

"..."

quiet!

No one raised their hands, to be exact, no one dared to raise their hands.

Snape was not surprised by this, he sarcastically said: "Has everything you learned in the previous five years been eaten by your pathetic brain?"

Hermione suddenly raised her arms high.

Before, Hermione didn't answer because she didn't want to waste effort, because even if she answered perfectly, she wouldn't get bonus points from Snape, and she might even be ridiculed.

But Snape's words stung Hermione, and the hard work and knowledge learned in the previous five years forced Hermione to raise her arm.

But Snape turned to face the blackboard as if he didn't see it, and a line of chalk was written under the wave of his wand.

"Defense!"

"Yes, defense!" Snape raised his voice slightly, his cold eyes swept over everyone: "I know some of you think you have some experience, and you will find this sentence ridiculous. I don't want to fight with such a stupid People argue, look at these pictures!"

Snape pointed to those weird pictures: "They vividly show the situation of being devastated by black magic. Cruciatus Curse!"

Snape pointed to a witch who was obviously howling, and the picture immediately moved, playing the scene of the witch being tortured by the Cruciatus Curse over and over again.

Not everyone has experienced real wizard battles like Kevin and the others. Most of the students in this room have only experienced curses in books.

The only exception was in fourth grade "Moody" class, but even then "Moody" was just replaced by spiders.

Although Snape didn't have a live demonstration, the impact of this painting on everyone was huge.Everyone couldn't help trembling in their hearts, not only because they were frightened by this picture of Cruciatus Curse tormenting people, but also because of the pictures behind it.

Look at those horrible things, it must be more "exciting" than the Cruciatus Curse.

"This is the Dementor's Kiss!" Snape said, pointing to another painting.

On the screen is a man curled up in a corner, his eyes glazed over.

As Snape pointed at the painting, the image of the dementor sucking the man's soul began to play.

In the third year, the dementors settled in Hogwarts, and the monsters in the dirty and shabby cloaks are still impressive.

Because of this, although there is no sound in this painting, the screams of the man and the terrible sound of "rustling" seem to be heard in everyone's ears.

……

In this way, Snape introduced all the paintings. In each painting, a wizard was killed by black magic, or even worse than death.

The students in the classroom who came down from this trip were "shattered", and even Kevin felt "fresh".

Because some of the paintings contained black magic or monsters that he had never seen before, so although everyone was terrified by these pictures, everyone listened carefully.

But it's clear that Snape's class isn't just about scaring you.

"No matter how precise the introduction is, it is not as important as practice." Snape said lightly, "I think you are still very unfamiliar with the use of silent spells!"
