Hogwarts Life Guide

Tangning knew that people should not be judged by their appearance, but after observing Mundungus' behavior, he couldn't help but wonder: Is this a core member of the Order of the Phoenix?

That's it?

Lupine didn't care about Mundungus' rudeness. It might be that he already knew what kind of person Mundungus was and was used to his speech and behavior.

In the afternoon, Tangning finally got to see Mundungus's character.

Mr. and Mrs. Weasley appeared together, both wearing casual home clothes.Mrs. Weasley couldn't stand the sly-looking Mundungus. Tangning didn't even know what was going on. For the next period of time, Mrs. Weasley looked at Mundungus like she was looking at a pile of garbage.

But Mundungus didn't care.

When Dumbledore appeared, he immediately became attentive, and Mrs. Weasley was so angry that she used the kitchen utensils loudly.

At this time, Tangning was really sure that Mundungus's nature was indeed what he saw, and there was no strange development like the sweeping monk.

"Tangning, I'm glad you can come!" Dumbledore said in a gentle voice, "Actually, we have always had some contact with Ilvermorny School. When we were preparing for the Triwizard Tournament, we also considered inviting them... but because For some reason, they refused. Headmaster Boot from the Ministry of Magic heard about the competition and was very interested."

"But? Is that But?" Tangning asked. Isolt Thayer adopted two orphans from the But family as adopted sons. The original Ilvermorny was built to teach them.

"I think so, if we're talking about the same Bute... Headmaster Bute was keen to push for deeper connections between Ilvermorny and other wizarding schools during his tenure, but it's clear he's met with resistance."

Sensing that the highlight was coming, Tangning perked up her ears.

"Principal Bute hopes to invite you to Ilvermorny to participate in student exchanges and show your skills to the students before their summer vacation. Ilvermorny has been stuck in its own ways for too long, and he wants to break these..."

"Only invite me?"

"That's it for now. If you are willing, Minerva will go with you on behalf of Hogwarts." Dumbledore continued: "There have always been exchanges between the British and American ministries of magic, but when Voldemort was here When the epidemic was raging, few wizards from other countries were willing to help us... Principal Butt had a wide network of contacts, and he also promised to help lobby the Magical Congress of the United States of America if needed. Ilvermorny has the skills to make wands, and Isolt Thayer A genius, she mastered this technique without being taught anything and left it to the school. Principal Butt wrote to me and told me he would like to show you all this."

Bypassing the Ministry of Magic to seek help from other countries shows how disappointed Dumbledore was with the British Ministry of Magic.

The production of wands has a very complicated process. A wand looks very simple - the branches of certain trees are used as the wand body, and the magic substances of certain magical creatures are used as the wand core. The combination of the two is a wand. The wand is gone.

But in fact, just the combination of the two is a complicated process. If you are not careful, you will lose the effect of casting spells, and it may even have a worse effect than the bad wand Ron used before.Not to mention the combination of different materials... From ancient times to the present, innovative experiments with magic have been a dangerous process. Tangning once heard that Ravenclaw's Luna Lovegood's mother died in this way. A new spell testing accident.

This is one of the reasons why as the magical world becomes more formalized and wizards communicate more and more, new spells become fewer and fewer.

Few people are willing to risk their lives to innovate unnecessarily.

It can't be said that it doesn't happen. Floo powder is already very cheap. You can buy a tablespoon for two psicols. Even so, every one or two years, there will always be news about someone using fake Floo powder that has failed to be imitated and causing an accident.

Intimidation and inducement, whether intentional or unintentional, Dumbledore slowly explained the two.

But Tangning was moved. In essence, he was still very adventurous, especially when safety could be ensured.It's just that a person's journey... seems a bit lonely.

If Professor McGonagall had known that her presence in Tangning's heart was so low, she would have immediately taken out her wand and taught her unscrupulous students a lesson.

Tangning glanced at cousin Nido. She was the one who laughed the loudest that morning. He silently made a cross in his mind. What Ilvermorny wanted was student exchange. Nido had graduated several years ago.

After being teased several times, Tangning had already let go. He asked Dumbledore in a low voice: "Hermione should be very interested in Ilvermorny. I don't think Principal Bute would refuse a top grader." !”

Dumbledore didn't have any special reaction, but Professor McGonagall began to look at Tangning with surprise, as if Tangning had eaten her cabbage.

Only then did Tangning notice the difference in Professor McGonagall. She was wearing Muggle clothes instead of the usual wizard robes in school.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to share this matter with Hermione.

"I will contact him, but I guess he will not refuse," Dumbledore blinked and whispered: "I believe you must know Butt's purpose. A 15-year-old Triwizard Tournament champion, even after the whole The history of the Triwizard Tournament is extremely rare. After arriving at Ilvermorny, there is no need to restrain..."

After confirming that he was going to Ilvermorny, Tangning tried to look up some information, but judging from what he could access, Ilvermorny was as mysterious as Durmstrang, who had been trying to hide himself. .

Although Ilvermorny was founded by Isolt Thayer and her Muggle husband James Stewart, and the school prides itself on being the most democratic and educational, after all, one of the founders is a Muggle. Well... This aspect is very characteristic of being a beacon of democracy in the place where it is located.

But in fact, during the two centuries that Rappaport's Law existed, the North American wizarding world was completely isolated from ordinary human society for much longer than this. During this period, there was probably not even high-level communication. Among them, Wolfmorny School is a white lotus that stays out of the situation, and no one can convince anyone of that.

Rappaport's Laws were designed to completely separate No-Maj and wizarding societies.This law prohibits wizards and witches from befriending or marrying No-Majs, and imposes heavy penalties on wizards who get too close to No-Majs.Contact between wizards and Muggles is limited to communications necessary for daily life.

In addition, there is another provision of Rappaport Law: students under the age of 17 cannot take wands out of school.

In other words, Ilvermorny may well have lost the original intention of its founders when they established the school.Even Hogwarts is the same. Who can guarantee that the current Hogwarts is what the Big Four want it to be?

Unlike Hogwarts, Ilvermorny will provide wands to new students when they enter. Rappaport's law has been repealed for 30 or [-] years, but Downing did not know that the rule of students leaving their wands in school during holidays is still there. Not here...

If this rule still remains, then Tangning truly feels that there will not be many students in Ilvermorny who will be his opponents.

After going through the Triwizard Tournament, Tang Ning still had some confidence.
