HP's Foreign Land

When the hourglass dropped the last grain of sand, the quills in the hands of 32 students suddenly dropped uncontrollably, and they all flew into the air. The exam came to an end amidst wailing and cursing.

As soon as the classroom door opened, the eyes of the "parents" who had been waiting outside for a long time lit up, and they looked for their own dolls one after another, but were surprised to find that almost every doll had earthy faces.The few with more serious symptoms actually walked in a certain direction while walking in a trance, plausibly plausible, or rushed to their friends in shock and insisted on asking them to take out all the textbooks. This strange phenomenon made the waiting outside The students couldn't help but shy away, feeling shocked and fearful: what kind of exam did they take?It was fine before going in, why is it like a mad dog after coming out?

Carlo and his party were also amazed by the scene before them. After looking at each other, they paid more attention to the students who came out of the classroom door. At this time, they finally saw Heimdall slowly pacing out from inside.

"How is it?" Everyone gathered around, including everyone in the school team. They carefully looked at Heimdall's face and found that there was no sign of madness, so they were relieved.

Carlo thought to himself: Rigg has already started self-studying the compulsory courses of the fourth grade, why do you still use others to force him?Go crazy, go crazy!

Heimdall suddenly lowered his eyebrows and remained silent, and could no longer see his expression clearly. Everyone's hearts were suddenly lifted, and they held their breath nervously.

"I can't write on many topics." Heimdall raised his eyes and looked around, then shrugged helplessly.

Everyone was stunned, but seeing his indifferent face, they were even more puzzled. What did he mean, that is to say, he did not do well in the exam?

The truth was right in front of his eyes, but he was still looking at the moon in the misty water. Carlo couldn't bear it anymore, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What subject did you test?"

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone had a sudden realization. By the way, they didn't know what subjects this exam was going to take. No wonder they all went crazy after they came out.

"Isn't it difficult?" Rian showed a timid look on his face, and he, a bystander, felt scared even thinking about it.

Heimdall was a little dazed: "There are twelve exams in total."

The people present were dumbfounded.

"Twelve gates?" Everyone repeated like a parrot.

Heimdall seemed to be holding his head in pain: "I can't write anything about divination, so I can only hand in blank papers..."

Divination is not a compulsory course in Durmstrang, this course is an elective course for the third grade and above, and in the German school, very few students take this course.

Among the three major magic schools in Europe, only Hogwarts still insists on offering this course as a compulsory course. Draco once complained to Heimdall about this: "Sybill Trelawney is a crazy woman, Talking nonsense upside down, our dean was once annoyed by her so-called prophecy, and asked her face to face if she drank too many nonsense drinks when she was a child."

The study of divination using sudden visions in the world to avoid disasters is contrary to Slytherin's pragmatic philosophy of speaking with strength, so most Slytherin students don't like this course.

Since the death of the world-famous British prophet Cassandra Trelawney, there has not been a second wizard who is proficient in this way.Today's wizarding world is no longer obsessed with predicting disasters and fortunes based on impromptu omens that are irregular and impromptu in reality.An important part of divination, the theory of "observing the sky and predicting the future" was absorbed and transformed by wizards who are proficient in astronomy, and observing the movements of the stars was gradually enriched into astronomy.

Heimdall was extremely frustrated. Although he knew that he was not at fault, this kind of result that was similar to handing in a blank paper made him feel very hurt.

Victor took a step forward and took him into his arms, Heimdall simply let go of his boyfriend's skirt and rubbed his face on it, seeking comfort.

Divination.In the eyes of Carlo and other low-grade students, this is as illusory as something floating in the sky. Even the high-achieving students in the school team have expressions of sympathy and understanding, which shows how different this course is in our school. To be seen.

"What about the others?" Carlo asked cautiously. It wasn't that he didn't feel sorry for Rieger, it was because the power of the truth was stronger, and the little fat man would be troubled if he didn't figure it out.

"I wrote everything I could, but there were too many questions, and I didn't have time to answer them in three and a half hours."

Carlo nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Everyone came forward to express comfort, thinking, look at the child who hit this child, the eyebrows and eyes are like two different people.

Heimdall was still rubbing his face vigorously.

Victor looked at him and asked tentatively, "Are you hungry?"

Heimdall stopped moving and looked up at his boyfriend: "Hungry."

"Go eat now?"

"Wait until I finish my reflection." After saying that, Heimdall buried his head and continued rubbing.

Victor: "..."

After drinking and eating, Heimdall settled his thoughts, summarized the exam experience in the morning, and then turned his head to tell Carlo the result of his thinking. Carlo was overjoyed, and immediately took out a pen and paper to prepare for the work.

In Heimdall's view, this exam does not follow the general exam pattern. Twelve subjects are tested together. What kind of concept is that? It is like Hogwarts OWLs. The examination of twelve subjects takes two weeks. It is impossible to finish writing in three and a half hours.The Education Committee and the Examination Management Committee will not play tricks for no reason. Heimdall speculates that this exam is likely to be a test without specific thresholds.

"Does it vary from person to person?" Carlo pondered.

"Professor Katenen disclosed this information when we were called for a meeting last time. I guess there is a lot to be learned, but the specific operation depends on the operation of the two committees."

Heimdall thought to himself, otherwise it would be too unfair. In this exam, it is obvious that the higher the grade, the bigger the advantage.

In fact, there is no so-called "fairness" in this exam from the very beginning. There is no learning before and after, and those who are masters are teachers. Erudite and dedicated people will naturally try to absorb new knowledge and content to enrich themselves, so as to achieve their ambitions as soon as possible. Ideal, will not be content with mediocrity, let alone be satisfied with step-by-step.The more consolidated you are at ordinary times, the more questions you can answer in this exam.

For example, Heimdall, the efforts he has put in to "live forever" are like this. It is better to act than to sit and think. Those who have died once will especially cherish the hard-won time.

Carlo looked at his face, and asked curiously, "Except for Divination, did you answer well?" Of course Carlo and the others knew what Heimdall's weaknesses were, but they didn't have the nerve to be straightforward.

Heimdall thought for a while, then shook his head: "I'm lucky in the history of magic and potions this time."

Carlo came to the spirit: "How do you say it?"

"Didn't I help Luce and the others translate a lot of Hogwarts OWLs exam papers last semester?"

"Oh, I know that." Carlo opened his eyes suddenly after speaking. "Did you pass all the exams?"

"About [-]% of the questions are questions that have appeared in OWLs over the years. Although they are not [-]% the same, they are almost the same." Heimdall was very annoyed, but it was a pity that time was limited at that time, and there were too many papers, so he didn't care at all. It's messy, I knew it was like this... A thousand dollars is hard to buy, I knew it, a thousand dollars is hard to sell regret medicine, Heimdall quickly shook his head, resolutely resisting negativity.

"Based on my personal analysis, the purpose of writing this paper is not to allow people to finish it." Heimdall concluded. "About 60.00% are basic questions, and some questions are the sample questions in the textbooks intact, which belong to the most basic knowledge mastering, and this part is for free points; the remaining 30.00% comes from the OWLs question bank, and the difficulty is increased by one level; the final Ten percent should be intentionally making things difficult for others, if you can write it, it’s not a shame if you can’t.”

Heimdall did not tell him that some of the topics in the last ten percent had appeared in the "Comprehensive Guide" edited by Yolf, and he had never encountered the rest. The accumulation and understanding can be written full.

What Heimdall didn't know was that the questions that he hadn't encountered before actually came from the level of NEWTs, which were selected from the relatively elite question banks in the examination administration bureaus of various countries.Heimdall is only in the second grade, and if it weren't for the "Comprehensive Guidance", he wouldn't have had the opportunity to touch the seventh grade or even advanced academic fields in advance.

In fact, Heimdall was already several grades ahead, far ahead of all the sophomores in the school, but he didn't realize it yet.

After class in the afternoon, the 32 students were summoned again. The students who gathered together were a little nervous, wondering whether the result was about to come out.

Principal Karkaroff did not take the lead in this convening. The person presiding over the meeting was an examiner from the Examination Management Committee.

The examiner is not a person who draws muddy and long speeches, and the content of the meeting is quite brief. He told the students that after discussion, the six of them decided to take another practical exam tomorrow, and the students here are asked to prepare mentally in advance.Whether the practice test is added or not mainly depends on the overall level of the students of the magic school. Among the first three magic schools they visited, only Hogwarts has added the practice test, and the other schools have not enjoyed this qualification.

The additional test means that the written test is not the final result. If you do well in the practical test tomorrow, it may be able to balance the poor results this morning, and the depressed minds of many top students suddenly come alive.

The examiner who presided over the meeting smiled, watched coldly for a moment, and deliberately swept the faces of the students with heavy marks.

Heimdall folded his arms and seemed to be calm, but when the examiner's eyes fell on his face, he didn't react at all strangely. He was not flattering or timid like other students, and the examiner's eyes couldn't help but Pausing for an extra second, Heimdall remained indifferent throughout.

Who knew that he was a little fuzzy, but he made the examiner look at him favorably. In the examiner's mind, this student is so calm at such a young age, and he will definitely have a good development in the future.Heimdall was unaware of this, and he didn't know that the examiner had secretly remembered his appearance, turned around and asked for his name and flipped through his examination paper...

The next day's practical exam was held as scheduled, and the opening time was the same as the previous day's written exam, and the exam location was also the same.

The 32 students were divided into [-] groups, three into one.One for every two of the six examiners.

Heimdall was assigned to the seventh group, so he had to wait outside the door with other untested students.

Students who have finished the test are not allowed to stay, let alone communicate with students who have not taken the test, and must leave immediately after the test.The waiting students had to make judgments from the facial expressions and body language of the classmates who came out.

Heimdall found that everyone was very nervous when they went in, but they were relatively relaxed when they came out, and there was almost no depressed bitter face.Because of this, Heimdall became more and more sure of his guess. This is the preliminary test, it's not a big deal, and the big move is definitely still to come.

Not long after, he and the two senior brothers in front entered the examination room.

There were three tables and nine chairs in the huge classroom. Six examiners sat behind the table, and three chairs were placed four or five steps away.

The examiners were either smiling or serious, and the two brothers suddenly became nervous, and Heimdall swallowed.

"Sit down." An old wizard who was over sixty years old pointed to the three seats in front of him.

The three students sat down neatly.

As soon as Heimdall sat down, the examiner's voice sounded next to his ears, and it was the old wizard who spoke first who spoke to him. Strangely, except for the examiner's voice, all other voices disappeared.Heimdall glanced at the others and found that the two brothers were listening intently, while the mouths of the examiners they were facing were opening and closing, but Heimdall couldn't hear what they were saying.

"Don't be nervous, we're just trying to improve efficiency and prevent mutual interference." The two examiners in charge of Heimdall smiled faintly at him.

"Mr. Heimdall Sturluson."

"Yes, sir."

The old wizard picked up a stack of parchment at hand, and Heimdall saw sharply that it was his examination paper.The old wizard glanced at the examination paper casually, then raised his eyes to Heimdall.

"Mr. Sturluson, what subject do you think you are best at?"

"Charms."

The old wizard pondered for a while: "Isn't it black magic?"

It appears they have done research before.

Heimdall said, "Isn't black magic just curses?"

The old wizard smiled, and then continued to ask: "What do you think of your school's introduction of black magic?"

"No idea."

"Then do you think it is necessary to learn black magic?"

Heimdall asked back: "Do you think it is necessary to learn Potions? Do you think it is necessary to learn the history of magic? And astronomy, is it necessary to learn?"

Not only the old wizard, but also the middle-aged examiner behind him was also stunned.

"I think these three courses are a waste of my time." Heimdall said firmly.

The old wizard quickly came back to his senses, and pointed out with a deadpan expression: "You're a bit too scientific."

Hit the nail on the head.

Heimdall was hurt.

A smile flickered in the eyes of the old wizard, and it was unpredictable, not to mention the dejected Heimdall.

"Please show us your best magic." The old wizard leaned back on the chair with his arms folded, and looked at Heimdall in a comfortable position.

"Can any magic work?"

The old wizard nodded.

Heimdall showed them Rig's version of Lumos, three balls of light floating in the air, dancing with Heimdall's wand.

As expected of a veteran member of the well-informed wizard examination management committee, the old wizard looked at it calmly for a while, and then said: "I thought you would show us a great black magic that will be memorable. "

Sarcasm me?Heimdall raised his eyebrows, he is really a narrow-minded old man.

"The more basic something is, the more valuable it is, and it can stand the test of time." Heimdall put away his wand.

The old wizard's eyes flickered for a moment: "Then let me see something else."

At this time, Heimdall suddenly discovered that the other two seniors had long disappeared, and he was the only one in this group who was still stranded in the classroom, while the other two groups of examiners had nothing to do at the moment, and looked at him as if they were watching a show.

"Can I go out now?" Heimdall asked.

The other two groups of examiners laughed at the same time.

"Don't you know that you are taking an exam? Of course the exam is up to the examiner." The middle-aged wizard behind the old wizard reminded Heimdall.

The old wizard said: "If you show another magic spell, I will let you out."

Heimdall was speechless, feeling that he had become a prisoner and needed to be "released".

Witnessed by the six wizards, Heimdall exposed his Animagi identity, turned into a majestic and beautiful white falcon, flapped its wings twice in the air, and fell back on the chair.The whole process of change is fleeting.

Except for the old wizard who remained calm, the other five wizards were touched and looked at each other for a while.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Stulusson." The old wizard let it go calmly.
