Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1106 Ultimate Wizard Exam (2)

  Everyone wants Umbridge to be unlucky?

Maybe.

   But most of them actually like to watch the excitement. After the excitement is over, everyone is indifferent to Umbridge's life and death.

  Now, most of the students are focusing on the final exams, especially the fifth and seventh graders. They don't care about Umbridge at all, and they don't have the heart to care about Umbridge.

  The trial of the toad, which should have attracted attention, was ignored by everyone.

   After all, what did it matter to them whether Umbridge was in Azkaban?

  In the entire Hogwarts school, Harry Potter is probably the only one who cares about Umbridge, and the O.W.L. exam also distracts most of Harry's energy.

  Recently, Albert often heard seventh grade students complaining that the practical exam was too difficult, and there were not a few students who were found deducted by the examiner for chanting a spell in a low voice in the magic spell exam.

  However, the spell practice test is not the most difficult. The Transformation Practice Exam on the second day of the Ultimate Wizard Examination stunned most of the examinees.

  Students were asked to perform body transformation: use transformation magic to change their appearance, that is, to use magic to disguise themselves. This seems simple, but in reality it is difficult for many people, and all kinds of strange appearances make the examiners shake their heads.

  In addition, candidates also need to transform a table into a pig or other creatures, and the larger the deformed object, the more difficult it is. Transforming a table is undoubtedly a challenge for everyone.

  In the end, it was easier, that is to use the spell of change, according to the examiner's request, to change a whole paragraph of text on the parchment, so that the content on other parchments will also be changed.

   Albert won the excellent again easily without accident. When he was waiting for other people outside the corridor, he saw faces that made people laugh.

Some people dyed their hair to try to disguise themselves; some people turned themselves into protruding eyes, big mouths, and high nose bridges; Seek help from Madam Pomfrey in hopes of getting herself back into shape again.

   "What are you going to turn yourself into?"

   Albert looked up and down Lee Jordan's appearance, and joked with a smile. He raised his wand to help Lee Jordan restore his eyebrows and hair to normal.

   "I don't know either. My mind was blank during the exam." Lee Jordan sighed deeply. He felt that he might not get the highest N. E． W． Ts out of shape certificate.

   "So, you dyed your eyebrows and hair, trying to get away with it?"

   "Totally screwed up anyway."

   "If you plan to open a store in the future, it doesn't matter if you mess up or not. Anyway, even if you really get the N.E.W.Ts certificate, you won't need it." Albert comforted.

   "It's true to say that, but... it's always very depressing." Lee Jordan sighed lightly, "It's impossible to understand our feelings if you take the exam every time you are excellent."

   "How was the exam?" Albert asked Shanna with a smile.

   "It will definitely be fine if you pass the exam."

   "Where's Angelina?"

   "The table turned into a pig, it doesn't seem...too active."

   "Maybe it's too fat, Albert's fat cat likes to lie on his stomach all day." Lee Jordan comforted.

   "Forget it, anyway, it doesn't matter what your grades are, I can finally breathe tomorrow." Angelina planned to join the Quidditch club after graduation, and did not require a certificate.

   "What if I don't succeed in joining the Quidditch club?" Alicia looked at her friend and reminded, "If you get good grades, you can always leave yourself an extra path."

   "You should have confidence in me. Even Albert thinks I can join the Quiditch Club." Angelina stared at Alia dissatisfied. Although she knew that the other party had good intentions, she still couldn't help being angry.

"Angelina still has an advantage in this regard. She plays well and has served as the captain of Quidditch." Lee Jordan comforted, "The number of students who graduate every year and are willing to join the Quidditch club Not much, even if it really messes up, you can go to the store to help, and Fred and George will definitely welcome you to help."

   "Are they really opening a store?" Shanna asked curiously.

   "It's still being renovated." Albert said with a smile, "However, it should be able to start business soon."

   "The rent of stores in Diagon Alley should be very expensive, right?"

  "Since the news of the mysterious man's resurrection spread, the business in Diagon Alley has become worse. Many shops have closed down, and the prices of the shops are much cheaper. Oh, by the way, Mr. Ollivander seems to be missing."

Thanks to the disappearance of Ollivander and Fusco, people in Diagon Alley were panicked. The stubborn original owner finally compromised and was willing to sell the shop at a lower price. The Wizarding Wars have been around for a long time.

   "Ollivander? The one who made the wand?" Shanna looked surprised.

   "Yes, that's him." Albert nodded and said, "The store was empty, and there were no signs of a struggle. No one knows whether he left by himself or was kidnapped."

   "What to do with the wands of the freshmen next semester?"

   "The Ministry of Magic can only find another wand manufacturer." Albert shrugged: "However, it may not be easy for them to find a good reputation."

  Albert didn't know whether Ollivander escaped by himself or was captured by Death Eaters. Anyway, the wandmaker was indeed missing.

  As for Florin Fusco, that guy ran away early by himself. Albert knew about this. Before Fusco left the UK, he wrote a letter to Albert to express his gratitude.

   "It's really unlucky. It's the worst time. It's not easy to find a job in this environment." Shanna sighed heavily, and began to worry about her future.

   "You can always find a job." Albert comforted, "If you really don't have a job, I can introduce you to one."

   "You still introduce jobs to others?" Everyone looked at Albert in surprise.

   "This is the benefit of knowing a lot of people, but I'm not sure if you like those jobs." Albert shrugged and reminded, "It's not easy to find a satisfactory job."

   The herbal medicine practical exam on the third day of the Ultimate Wizard Exam is: How to standardize the fangs and leaves of the poisonous tentacles.

   For this reason, Madam Pomfrey complained a lot about this matter.

  There are a lot of wizards who were poisoned to death by poisonous tentacles.

  Since the poisonous tentacle itself is an extremely dangerous plant, Madam Pomfrey had to wait by the side the whole time to prevent the students from being bitten by the poisonous tentacles during the exam.

  Although such cases are actually rare, they have to be guarded against.

  Albert picked the fangs and leaves very easily, because he used a spell to directly hold the poisonous tentacles, and quickly completed the exam.

Although it is not the same as the so-called norms, Albert's method is obviously safer and can complete the harvest quickly, so Professor Maqiban and Professor Tofudi still gave it excellent, because the use of magic assistance is allowed during the harvest. , although points will be deducted for being caught by poisonous tentacles.

  After the exam, Albert was left by Mrs. Pomfrey to help, and the head nurse kept complaining about it to Professor Pomona Sprout, who was full of helplessness.

  Actually, as long as you are prepared for protection, the poisonous tentacles are not as dangerous as imagined. Most of the wizards who were poisoned to death by the poisonous tentacles did not wear dragon leather gloves, were accidentally bitten and poisoned, and did not receive first aid in the first place.

   The Defense Against the Dark Arts exam was on Thursday, and probably because of Umbridge, the exam content was easier than expected.

  Students were required to use a silent spell to despell the rabbit, and then they were required to master the use of a defensive spell (iron armor spell) to successfully resist the evil spell, and finally to show the examiner the spell to expel the female ghost.

  When Albert was completing the Defense Against the Dark Arts practical exam, Professor Tofudi suddenly said: "I remember you once published a method to deal with werewolves."

   "I didn't invent the restoration spell." Albert shook his head and said, "I just restored the spell."

   "Oh, you are still so humble, but that is quite a remarkable thing." Professor Tofty asked curiously, "Can you show us."

   "I think it's difficult, after all, there are no werewolves here."

   "Oh, what a pity, I heard that the difficulty of restoring the human form spell is quite high." Professor Tofudi was a little disappointed.

   "Okay, Tofudi, there are still many students taking the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam." Professor March gave Albert an excellent, indicating that he can leave.

  The content of Friday's ancient magic text exam directly baffled other students, because everyone needed to translate an article without any auxiliary tools.

For the vast majority of students, this is undoubtedly a disaster. Most of the students only have a half-knowledge of ancient runes. Maybe they can use the "Rune Dictionary", "Magical Symbol Collection" and "Magic Word Phonics" to read Understand and translate ancient runes, but without auxiliary tools, it is absolutely impossible to translate smoothly, even if the content of the article that needs to be translated is very simple.

  Of course, Albert couldn't help it. It took him only ten minutes to complete the translation of the ancient runes and leave.

   "Except for Albert, no one can complete the translation without auxiliary tools, and we are not experts in this field. Do they expect us to be able to see ancient magic patterns at a glance?"

  Shanna often complained about the content of the ancient rune exam. The lack of auxiliary tools made the eyes of the other candidates confused, which severely damaged everyone's confidence.

  No way, it usually takes a long time to translate articles, let alone exams.

  Therefore, there are very few wizards who are really good at ancient runes, and there are not many jobs that require proficiency in ancient runes.

   "You are not very good at it yourself." Lee Jordan raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember that you also published a book on ancient runes."

   "That's because of need."

"need?"

   "Because some ancient documents are recorded in ancient runes, if you want to understand them thoroughly, you must be proficient in them. There are also some ancient spells that require ancient runes. If you want to master them, you must know ancient runes."

   "The reason why you mastered the ancient runes is really..."

   Everyone didn't know what to say.

   "Dumbledore is also an expert in ancient runes."

   "What about arithmetic divination?" Shanna asked curiously, "Don't tell me, because you are better at mathematics."

   "In terms of arithmetic divination, I actually prefer probability." Albert said, "For example, how likely is an event to happen, to speculate whether it will happen."

   "So, you can always say a lot of things casually?" Lee Jordan asked with wide eyes.

   "Yes, that's probably the case." Albert admitted directly, "So, many times, I actually guessed right."

  Everyone was stunned by the truth.

   Is it okay to guess right?

   "For things like divination, except that there may be a premonition related to myself, I have to stare at the crystal ball by myself. I don't have so much time."

   "So, last time you told Harry that Umbridge must have died?" Lee Jordan asked with a complicated expression.

"It's normal for Umbridge to be finished, because Harry interfered strongly in this matter, which led to her being abandoned by the Ministry of Magic." Albert said naturally, "If she is abandoned, she will naturally be finished. The Ministry of Magic must Let me give everyone an explanation, and Umbridge is the unlucky one, and he can also appease the savior's emotions by the way."

   "If Harry hadn't been interviewed, wouldn't the Ministry of Magic have given up on Umbridge?" Angelina couldn't help asking with wide-eyed eyes.

"Probably not. The Ministry of Magic will probably pretend to suspend Umbridge for investigation. After the limelight of this matter passes, Umbridge will still continue to work in the Ministry of Magic." Albert explained , "But Harry stepped forward and made things worse, causing the Ministry of Magic to no longer be able to cover up, and had to give an explanation to the masses, so Umbridge could only be given up."

   "Disgusting, no wonder you don't want to work at the Ministry of Magic."

   "Anderson, Dumbledore asked you to go to the principal's office at eight o'clock tomorrow morning." Nick, who was almost headless, floated over and said to Albert.

"What's up?"

   "It seems that the Umbridge case is about to go to trial, and you need to attend the trial as an alternate to the Wizengamot." Nick explained, "Remember to change into your suit."

   "This is really good news." Lee Jordan muttered.

   "I still have to go to Potter, he seems to be called as a witness in court." Nick turned and floated away to inform Harry about it.

   "It seems that Umbridge is really doomed." Angelina sighed, "Perhaps, she will really be imprisoned in Azkaban for the rest of her life."

   "It's hard, this time I'll be imprisoned for a few years at most." Albert shook his head.

   "But didn't you predict that Umbridge would die in Azkaban Prison?" Lee Jordan asked puzzled.

   "Yes, but not this time."

   "Is there a next time?"

"I think that after the mysterious man takes control of the situation, he will definitely release the prisoners of Azkaban and let them become his minions." Albert whispered his speculation, "Umbridge knows the Ministry of Magic, and he is also the Deputy Minister , The whole person is bad to the bone marrow, and he also knows some Death Eaters, so he will definitely be reused."

   "So, when the Mysterious Man is defeated by Harry and Umbridge is thrown into Azkaban again, he can only spend the rest of his life there?" Lee Jordan understood what Albert meant.
