Hogwarts Crawler

Wizards need to develop... This is the consensus of Adam and Grindelwald.

It's just that Grindelwald is based on the idea of ​​maintaining the superior status of wizards, while Adam is more realistic. He hopes that magic can bring him a higher quality of life than the Muggles of his time.

So wizards should at least develop at the same speed as Muggles, right?

As for the unrealistic issue of developing technology in the wizarding world...

You should know that science and magic have never been opposites. Adam didn't know about the previous world, but in this world, magic is also part of the objective world!

The magnetic field of the wizarding world will cause Muggle electrical appliances to malfunction, which can only mean that the operating logic of Muggle electrical appliances is incompatible with magic. Wouldn't it be better to develop a compatible wizard-specific technology tree?

In fact, Adam even thought about directly connecting Muggles and the wizarding world to put some pressure on wizards and make them feel a little urgent.

Anyway...

Muggles: We have cars and planes!

Wizards: We have Apparition, brooms and Floo Network!

Muggles: We have radio!

Wizard: We have owls and two-way mirrors!

…

Muggles: We have missiles!

Wizard: We have Adam!

Adam: We have missiles too!

Muggles: ? We also have nuclear bombs!

Wizard: We have Adam!

Adam: Wait…Okay, we also have nuclear bombs!

Muggles: ? ? ? We also have aircraft carriers!

Wizard: We have Adam!

Adam: We…what do we need aircraft carriers for?

In short, before that, Adam has enough time to wait for wizards to climb the technology tree, and he also has enough strength to suppress the war between wizards and Muggles on his own.

Unfortunately, even Grindelwald and Bernard thought this idea was a bit extreme and dangerous, so they gave up.

Just when Adam was regretting that he didn't know how long he would have to wait, the students in the Forbidden Forest came out one after another.

It was not difficult to obtain the fire ash snake eggs, especially when Adam had placed enough fire ash snake eggs in the third area in advance. Many young wizards found "fire ash snake nests without fire ash snakes at home". Relatively speaking, more accidents still happened on the way.

For example, some wizards did not know how to distinguish the traces of magical animals and ran into the territory of the hippogriffs, some were attacked by the evil bird because they were not careful, and some were sprayed with fire by the gem on the back of the curious fire crab...

Fortunately, at most they were just covered in dust, and no one was taken out by the house elves because their lives were threatened.

After the last team came out, Grindelwald scored everyone according to the performance of each student recorded by the magic mirror.

Unexpectedly and not surprisingly, the first place was the Neville team.

"Why?"

Hermione was surprised:

"Our team got the Fire Ash Snake very smoothly along the way, why is the score not as good as Neville's?"

"Your team is indeed very lucky, Miss Granger, but that means you don't have 'extra points'."

Grindelwald shook his head and said:

"Of course, in that case, it seems that your team's score seems to be naturally at a disadvantage compared to other unlucky teams, and there is a suspicion of encouraging students to provoke magical creatures, so the specific scoring rules will be more complicated."

"As for this time, Neville's team encountered a lot of troubles on the road, but they solved them very well, and even came back faster than you who had a smooth journey...so their score is higher."

Hermione nodded reluctantly, and then glared at Harry and Ron.

They did get the Fire Ash Snake eggs very smoothly, so after that they rested for a while next to a blueberry bush, which caused them to come back later than Neville's team.

"How would I know there would be a grade... and those blueberries are really sweet."

Ron muttered, and Harry nodded silently.

However, as the image in the magic mirror continued to change, Ron's eyes widened:

"Wait... what did Neville use?"

On the mirror, Neville and his friends found a nest of fire ash snakes with fire ash snakes in it. Neville and his friends each put on earmuffs, and then... Neville took out a mandrake from his pocket? !

"Mandela."

Neville looked natural, with a confident smile on his face.

Professor Grindelwald was right. Defense Against the Dark Arts is not such an inconvenient thing? As long as it is an ability to protect yourself, it is Defense Against the Dark Arts!

"This... isn't this cheating?"

Ron opened his mouth wide.

"Of course not, I said you can use any method, threats will not come according to the textbook, and you certainly don't have to resist according to the textbook."

Grindelwald spread his hands:

"Magical plants, potions, magic props, even if you haveFriends with magical animals who can help... As long as they can protect themselves, no means are too much. "

"You know, although you won't really die in the Forbidden Forest, once you leave Hogwarts, you will not only face magical animals, but also wizards who are more treacherous and dangerous than magical animals. There is no chance to live again!"

After warning everyone, Grindelwald added:

"But the premise is that these belong to you... For example, Neville's mandrake, which was cultivated by Neville himself, is not yet mature, otherwise the cry can directly kill the fire ash snake, instead of just stunning it like in the magic mirror."

Then Grindelwald looked at Neville again:

"Mandra is powerful, but the action of wearing earmuffs is too obvious. It is a disadvantage that you can't hear anything after wearing earmuffs. And now we are in school, be careful not to hurt other students by mistake..."

"I know, Professor Grindelwald, I am practicing blocking my ears and cultivating other magical animals. I will adjust the tactics according to the situation, and I have teammates. "

This is not the first time that Neville has put magical plants into actual combat. After using his own abilities to achieve results many times, he naturally has a completely different kind of confidence than before.

Grindelwald nodded and glanced at Seamus beside Neville.

It should be said that this kid is particularly talented in spells such as thunder explosion and blasting roar. Hogwarts really has a lot of good seedlings...

After a real actual combat, although it is not so real, it is enough to make everyone realize the complexity of the external environment and how difficult it is to apply what they have learned in class to actual combat.

According to Professor Grindelwald's requirements, it would be best if they could reach the level of a team of three or less people being able to deal with magical animals of danger level XXXX within four months. Those who can complete it can enter the next stage at that time. Those who cannot complete it will continue to brush the three-star forbidden forest (crossed out) third area. The students are all interested. High.

In addition to the tasks assigned by Professor Grindelwald, other professors also began to encourage everyone to go to the Forbidden Forest more often.

For example, some after-class exercises in Transfiguration and Charms require everyone to find specific targets in the Forbidden Forest for practice.

Even some materials used in Potions require students to collect them in the Forbidden Forest by themselves - of course, the environment they choose is relatively safe for the students' level.

As for whether those environments produce the corresponding materials... Adam will make it produced there.

And will there be students who cheat and lie that they have completed their homework in the Forbidden Forest, or buy potion materials in the store as the results of the Forbidden Forest?

Of course there are!

However, the original intention of these assignments is to let students go to the Forbidden Forest for more practical combat. Unless the professor allows it, students cannot enter the Forbidden Forest at will, so those students who don't want to go, just let them go, after all, they have to be responsible for their own lives.
