The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 154 Why did you choose the chapter name?
It's better to come early than to come early. Just as Ida was about to doze off, Dumbledore handed over a pillow.Ada planned to practice silent casting at the end of last semester. Dumbledore sent this note as soon as the semester started, which can be said to be quite timely.

Silent casting is also a silent spell, which means that when you use a spell, you read the spell silently, so that the opponent does not know what magic you intend to cast, so that you have an advantage for a moment. Records of silent spells.

This is why Ada wants to practice silent spellcasting, but mastering silent spells is very difficult and requires extremely strong willpower and concentration.In addition, one more thing to note is that silent spells will reduce the effect of casting spells, and the reduction varies from person to person.

Although it will reduce damage, Ada thinks it is worthwhile to practice silent spells, especially for sneak attacks and yin people, it is simply perfect.If you want to be a real "Voldemort", the silent spell is your best choice.

After getting the notes, Ada couldn't stay in the office because Professor McGonagall drove her back directly.It was getting late, and Professor McGonagall told her to go back to sleep as soon as possible, and not to stay outside and wander around, especially not to go to the corridor on the right of the fourth floor.

In the common room, the twins were waiting for Ida to return, and they told her the results of their reconnaissance.

Fred and George found nothing special in the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor, only dust and cobwebs all over the floor. Except for a locked door, it didn't look like a restricted area at all.

As I said before, ordinary door locks in the magic world have always been used to guard against gentlemen but not villains, and the one used to lock this door is the most common kind of door lock, which is infinitely close to an ornament, a card of a restricted area nothing.

Such a door lock can't stop people who want to go in, and Dumbledore's "no entry" can't stop the students' enthusiasm. This so-called restricted area can be said to be undefended.It's like standing upstairs, waving to people with a handkerchief, and shouting: Come and play!
Ada thought that there must be something hidden inside the door, otherwise, how dare Dumbledore put "danger" in the castle so grandiosely.There is no room for other people to sleep soundly on the side of the couch, let alone only one door away from "danger"?
The three of them discussed in a low voice, and decided to go in and take a look next week to see what was hidden inside.

On Thursday, it was Quirrell's Defense Against the Dark Arts class again. It had been four days since the school started, and students of all grades had experienced his devastation.After another Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Gryffindor's third year's last hope for Quirrell also fell through.

Quirrell was not excited because he became a professor of the main subject, nor was he unable to perform properly because of nervousness. He was simply a dish, and there was no other reason.

The only reason for this class to continue to exist is the mutual torture between the teacher and the students. Quirrell tortured the students with his "incompetence" and fed the students, but the students didn't have to do anything. The greatest torture for Quirrell.

Judging from Quirrell's level of coaching, it is still very easy to take up a teaching position at Hogwarts. Ada thinks she can be her. Anyway, Quirrell is at the bottom. No matter how bad she is, can she be worse than Quirrell?

Thursday afternoon is the elective ancient runes. Ida thought that Professor Bathsheda Babling should be an old professor, but it turned out that Professor Babling was unexpectedly young. See Looks like two or 30 years old.

Ancient runes are mainly theoretical courses. Studying the manuscripts of ancient runes is very similar to Muggles studying ancient characters such as oracle bone inscriptions, and the teacher is so young, which makes Ada feel a little bit about this professor. distrust.

After all, with Quirinus Quirrell "precious and precious", Ida can be forgiven for not trusting the equally young Bathsheda Babbling.

In such a situation of distrust, the ancient rune class began. Professor Babling successfully slapped Ada in the face with her strength, and told Ada what it means to be ugly.

Although Professor Babling is young, she does have real materials. She is not here to make money like Quirrell.Professor Babling has published many papers on ancient runes, and her achievements have surpassed many seniors. She came to teach in the school to better study ancient runes.

Professor Babling's course arrangement is also very reasonable. She first explained the meaning and purpose of this course, so that everyone can understand what runes are.Then I brought everyone in contact with the simplest characters, some of which are like reading pictures when I was a child.

The students in the classroom are mainly Ravenclaws, and the students in the other three colleges combined are not as many as Ravenclaws. Ada also met an acquaintance, that is Cedric Diggory of Hufflepuff .

After one class, everyone also had a relatively clear understanding of ancient runes, and they all recognized the young Professor Babling.Of course, if you have to pick the bones, you can still find some shortcomings in Professor Babling.

No one thought that the knowledgeable Professor Babling was a talker. She might have been studying runes alone for too long. The appearance of the student made her see a living person again, and she felt very kind.

As if he hadn't spoken in a few lifetimes, Professor Babling kept uttering one nonsense after another.The words were so secretive that no one else could get in their mouths, it was completely her own performance.

Professor Babling can chat with you from ancient runes to family stories, from ancient and powerful magic to the bad lunch at noon, and from academic research to which newspapers are better.

The rambling Professor Babling still has a lot of complaints about the school. She believes that ancient runes should be compulsory, and every student should master this ancient language; she thinks the existing education system is not desirable, magic The Ministry should introduce a new education policy as soon as possible; she also dislikes that Dumbledore's salary is too small, not enough for her to buy new clothes.

When Professor Babling criticized the school for nothing, Cedric secretly said to Ada: "She hides in the office every day translating ancient runes, why do she need so many new clothes?"

Ada ignored Cedric's straight man speech, she was more interested in another thing that Professor Babling mentioned, that Professor Babling used to admire Quirrell.

Of course, what Professor Babling worships is not the stuttering Quirrell. Except for the deaf and blind, no one worships the current Quirrell.Professor Babling admired Quirrell during her school days. According to her, Quirrell was a smart, quick-thinking person when he was young, and a very talented senior.

Professor Babling is also very sorry for Quirrell becoming what he is now.She really couldn't understand what kind of accident could cause such a huge change in a person. Except for that face, everything became different from before.

Hearing Qiluo's name, some students were indifferent, bowing their heads and sorting out their notes; some students were burning with gossip, wondering if the two were childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts; some were guessing what happened to Qiluo. what.

Cause and effect cause and effect, knowing the cause can guess the effect, only knowing the secret of Quirrell, can Ada know what he wants to do, and also know whether he should be prepared to deal with it, or should take the little Watching a show on the bench.
