HP in the name of Slytherin

Chapter 67 Academic Competition

As Dumbledore expected, the entire Hogwarts became active on the first day after the game instructions were announced.

The upper grades cannot participate but can provide information to the lower grades. The big Ravenclaw pulls the little Ravenclaw with him all day long and travels in the ocean of knowledge together; the upright Hufflepuff squats in the library every day when there is no class, and the place has become Their second home; Gryffindors rarely sit still, and there are also some scholars in their college; Slytherins often gather together to discuss secretly, what family lineage, and come up with more useful information if they can. .

The relationship between the upperclassmen and the lowerclassmen has become unprecedentedly harmonious. During this period, Catherine got to know all the senior Slytherins and came to the conclusion that... she is indeed more suitable for activities in the lowerclassmen.

Many senior Slytherins have become too close to the Death Eaters due to family relationships and the history of the school. When they come into contact with Catherine, they default to her becoming Voldemort's deputy. If Catherine is not careful, she may be taken over by them. See the clues.

It is still simple for lower-grade Slytherins. The talents of the young wizards have not yet been fully demonstrated. Even if there are family reasons, the threshold for Death Eaters is still quite high. Not just anyone can come into contact with the core of Death Eaters, let alone Talk about contacting Voldemort himself.

Compared to the distant Death Eaters and the superior Lord Voldemort, Miss Catherine is much more real. She is an excellent "Slytherin" visible to the naked eye every day.

Catherine believed that Lucius had ample opportunity to contact her in the past few days. If she wanted to inquire about information or get close to someone, she would have met and discussed every day, and she would have made a breakthrough within four days.

Lucius became unexpectedly conservative, which was not in line with Slytherin's characteristics, nor in line with the shrewdness and ability of Lucius that Catherine had learned about.

She was almost certain that there was something wrong with Lucius or the Malfoy family. Only in this way could the Slytherin, who had been the Head Boy of the Student Union in the sixth grade, suddenly become low-key and conservative.

No matter what the specific problem was, the time for the game finally arrived. Early on Monday morning, after breakfast, the auditorium was transformed by magic at the touch of a button.

The surrounding area turned into a circle of stands, where the senior students would watch the games.

The teachers' table and chairs in the front are separated, with a seat reserved for the three specially invited referees in the middle, and on the left and right are the viewing seats for other professors of the school and special guests from the Ministry of Magic.

The little wizards below the third grade sat in a square shape in the middle, forming an array according to the house, surrounding the host in the middle, Professor McGonagall - she was the most majestic among all the professors, even if the little lion of Gryffindor was in front of her. Don't dare to make mistakes.

Principal Dumbledore first gave a very brief speech for the competition, mainly welcoming the officials from the Ministry of Magic who came to watch the ceremony, including Abraxas of the Malfoy family, and many parents of the students.

Afterwards, Professor McGonagall took out the lottery bucket, and the order of speeches will be arranged according to the numbers obtained by the lottery.

Number one is Hufflepuff, number two is Slytherin, number three is Ravenclaw, and number four is Gryffindor.

The little badger was surprised that he could dodge the most terrifying Ravenclaw. The good Gryffindor brother promised not to cause problems for his people.

The little snake was very satisfied. The Hufflepuffs in front were all honest people. Their biggest opponents spoke after them, and they had full time to dig holes.

Kitty is very confident. Looking at you Slytherins, you don't think you have a chance to win, do you? And Gryffindor, you have fun playing Quidditch, right? You didn’t expect that you would be here today, right? It's time for everyone to experience the terror of brain players!

Only the little lion felt that his luck was bad today. Looking ahead, Ravenclaw was making people bald, but looking back, he couldn't cheat his good Hufflepuff brothers.

It was agreed at the beginning that the little badger and the lion would go together, and whoever struck first would be the dog.

The three rows of students from the first to third years of Gryffindor looked solemn.

Professor McGonagall rang the bell: "Hufflepuff is invited to speak."

The hourglass turned upside down when Professor McGonagall finished speaking. In addition to the word count, the time was also strictly stipulated.

"In ancient times, language was magic. Wizards could use language to induce magic to cast spells." Amelia Bones, who spoke on behalf of the first grade Hufflepuffs, stood up to speak. The Hufflepuff next to her immediately said The name of the reference book and the page number corresponding to the information are written and displayed, "So if you want to explore the changes from ancient magic to modern magic, you can seek breakthroughs from the changes in spell casting."

As expected, the little badger took the conservative route. The first graders would speak first, and if it didn't work, the senior grades would supplement the advice.

They won't finish the sentence at once. Firstly, the time and word count are limited. Secondly, if they talk less, they may be able to earn additional points later.

Coincidentally, the Slytherin who spoke in the second group also had the same plan.

Slytherin was also the first grader to speak first. As Amelia spoke, they had to respond, and the results were presented to Agatha, Belle and Heyman.

Heyman loves to show off and stands up as soon as the time is up to say: "The difference between ancient magic and modern magic is that ancient wands and gestures are more used for amplification, while the most important emotions of modern magic are rarely mentioned in ancient magic. And, only some large-scale magic will record emotion-related content."

Slytherin was deliberately off-topic, but do you want to say they were really off-topic? No, it's just for Ravenclaw.

If Ravenclaw wanted to talk about such an off-topic topic, it would definitely be difficult for Gryffindor to answer it. One of them might be wiped out in the first round.

Ravenclaw clearly saw through Slytherin's tactics, Alice Bennett, who spoke on behalf of the Slytherins, said: "This change can be traced back to about 900 AD, and we believe that the ongoing witch-hunting movement at that time is closely related to it. "

She helped bring Gryffindor back to the subject, and the question became easy again.

Of course, Ravenclaw is not doing charity, thinking that they don't know that Gryffindor and Hufflepuff have discussed using the history of the Muggle world to assist discussions as a nirvana for their two houses!

Since the professor said yes, they will comply with the wishes of the two colleges. Today they must let you know what Ravenclaw is!

Magical world, Muggle world, anything related to knowledge, do you want to stump them? dream!

Gryffindor hasn't thought too much about it yet. It's good to keep it simple. They mainly focus on taking one step at a time.

The first-year representative of Gryffindor was the most stable Remus Lupin. He said cautiously: "The witch-hunting movement killed a large number of wizards. In this process, we can clearly discover the effectiveness of language in ancient magic. Keep lowering and gradually moving towards emotional guidance.”

Well, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff have agreed to talk as little as possible, and we will work together to get the points that are easy to get in the early stages of the game.

Amelia: "Creatures will evolve according to the needs of the real environment, and wizards are not static. During a recorded witch hunt, the captured wizards had the first magic riot. Before that, wizards had no magic power. With the term riot, we believe this is the transition from ancient magic to modern magic.”

The senior Slytherin suddenly raised his hand before the Slytherin player spoke: "Professor, this point of view is controversial in the historical circles. Can it be approved?"

Professor McGonagall looked at the three special referees in the front row.

In fact, if you look closely at some of the senior Ravenclaw students, you can see the answer to this question from their expressions as they chat in low voices.

Professor Dumbledore and the two referees on the left and right whispered a few words to each other and said, "There is indeed a dispute. Please add Hufflepuff's information."

If you can't replenish it, you will be eliminated.

There was a villain smile on the Slytherin side - of course, Slytherin insisted that it was normal for them to smile calmly and elegantly.

They just thought of something interesting: Don't even think about rolling up the mud in front of them!
