Facts have proved that although Neville has become less stupid, he has indeed not become smarter - he just takes everything Lu Yuan said seriously, rather than flattering him. 8『1中文Δ』网
From the perspective of acquiring knowledge, you can deeply remember and believe it after listening to it once. This is enough to be qualified for a librarian (non-Peking University) type of job - but not a magician. A magician must be able to deceive, kidnap, and cheat. , the ability to doubt everything and draw inferences from one instance.
The best quality of Neville's child is just two words, "honesty!" He is only a few steps away from a qualified magician.
So... "Neville, you are not suitable to be a magician, do you understand?"
When Lu Yuan said this, both Neville's grandmother and his parents who had just been cured turned ugly. It can be said that Neville carries all the expectations of the Longbottom family. Although he was always disappointed again and again, since Neville received the cross, his academic performance has improved by leaps and bounds, which has rekindled the fire of expectation in the hearts of his relatives! Now, Lu Yuan asserts that Neville has no talent in magic... How do they accept this?
Only Neville smiled shyly, seemingly not surprised. Obviously he knows this very well, and he just keeps working hard because he doesn't want to disappoint his family.
"If," Lu Yuan raised his hand, signaling Neville's grandma who wanted to interrupt to let him finish, "I mean if, the next step is a peaceful era. Then let Neville graduate with excellent grades and then find a job in the Ministry of Magic. It is not difficult at all to get a job, or to enter Hogwarts as a teacher. Sometimes, your grades in magic have nothing to do with whether you can be a qualified magician. Neville's His character is very good at taking exams, but his flaw is practicality, paper work and getting high scores are not difficult for him.”
"But!" Lu Yuan waved, motioning for Cedric to come over.
"I think you all know that Voldemort has been resurrected, and he also rescued the Death Eaters who were still loyal to him from Azkaban!" Upon hearing the news, Neville's parents trembled and hugged each other. The experience of being tortured by Death Eaters may be a lifelong shadow for them, even if the physical trauma is treated. "Don't believe what the Ministry of Magic says! I tell you, Voldemort is really here! He is gathering his subordinates! Death eaters, werewolves, vampires, black magicians, giants and other creatures of the dark side are gathering in a mighty manner. His subordinates! But that idiot Fudge in the Ministry of Magic only blindfolds himself and fights for power with Dumbledore, thinking that Dumbledore is trying to steal his position!"
"Voldemort will destroy everything! He will destroy Diagon Alley, Gringotts, Hogsmeade Village, and Hogwarts School! Destroy the Ministry of Magic and everything we know! By that day, no matter whether it is Seth Both Derek and Neville have to go to the battlefield!" He waved his hand again, rejecting the old lady's intervention, "We can't stop it! Because by then, their classmates - Harry Potter, Ron Way Sly, Hermione Granger, Zhang Qiu... will all stand on the front line to fight! It will be a battle with students as the main force, and we cannot stop or replace it! If Neville and Digory do not participate, they You will always be excluded from that circle!”
This topic is somewhat adult.
Participating in the war is certainly risky, but the dividends if you win are also amazing! In the original book, Hermione became the Minister of Magic not long after the war, and Harry was the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic. Although Ron did not serve in the Ministry of Magic (because his wife was a minister), the Weasley family almost They are all high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Magic... The remaining people hold various professorships in Hogwarts - this is the dividend of the war!
If Neville and Diggory don't participate, they will definitely be excluded from this circle in the end...
You know, Harry and the others are the same age as Neville! This means they are likely to be buried for the rest of their lives!
After understanding this, Mrs. Longbottom could only be speechless no matter how much she loved her grandson. Because she knew what Lu Yuan said was right. Dumbledore is bringing the war to the campus, and many people can see this. He is indeed turning the students into his "Dumbledore's Army" - the Ministry of Magic really did not wrong him on this point! It's just that the white magician did it in a very clever way, and it looked like he was doing it himself. If this situation continues, Hogwarts will sooner or later become the front line against Voldemort... The situation Lu Yuan said will occur.
"What should Neville do?" Once Mrs. Longbottom made a decision, she was a very decisive old woman. She directly pushed Neville out and stood in front of Lu Yuan.
"Of course, learn how to fight in the way you are good at!" Lu Yuan pulled out a cross sword with complicated patterns and carvings from nowhere and stood it in front of Neville! Neville took it subconsciously. "Feel the philosophy of muscles, Neville!" After fooling Neville into getting excited, Lu Yuan whispered to himself again with a smile, but Cedric sitting next to him heard it - "We already have We have lost the paladins and dragon knights, and now we are in urgent need of cannon fodder infantry... no, the backbone of the main force! It’s decided, you will be the Crusader Swordsman from now on!”
Cedric blinked his eyes and shut his mouth decisively - the dragon knight has a higher status than cannon fodder, no, the backbone of the main force! I am already a dragon knight, so I am satisfied, what else do I need a bicycle for?
As a result, the permanent population of the Screaming Shack swelled again.
Although Sirius Black left, Neville's parents stayed on as new members of the Shrieking Shack. On the one hand, they were taking care of Neville who was training here, and on the other hand, they were also trying to avoid Voldemort - Neville vowed to tell them that as long as they were at the Peace Hotel, no one could harm the customers here! They could believe 30% of this... But after recovering from the nightmare, the couple just wanted to find a place to live away from Voldemort.
In an era when everyone was afraid of mysterious people, at least Lu Yuan and Elaine talked and laughed about Voldemort.
This year, the outside world was also turbulent, and the conflict between the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore had reached the point where everyone knew it - the Ministry of Magic accused Dumbledore of creating an atmosphere of terror around the return of the mysterious man, while Dumbledore tried to expel the Ministry of Magic. Harry Potter is so angry!
There was back and forth between the two sides. Dumbledore took Harry Potter away from the Wizarding Court in a swagger, while the Ministry of Magic forcefully installed a self-righteous and domineering woman Dolores Umbridge in Hogwarts. Serve as a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and Ministry of Magic correspondent! This woman was spying on Dumbledore and Harry, causing mischief in Hogwarts and disturbing everyone's peace! She even kicked out Dumbledore after half term and became the Headmaster of Hogwarts herself!
Against this background, these people ignored the importance of Lu Yuan's "resurrection from the dead" to the entire magical world; they also ignored the fact that Azkaban was robbed and a large number of Death Eaters escaped! For the sake of power, Fudge has put all his attention on Dumbledore! Everything else seemed to him like smoke bombs set off by Dumbledore.
It was also in this context that darkness was growing, and Voldemort easily regrouped the huge forces that connected the entire Europe! By this time, Voldemort's return has become unstoppable! And the dormant Screaming Shack has undoubtedly become a "fourth party" force in the eyes of many caring people...
Sirius Black paid a visit to the Shrieking Shack in the middle of term. At this time, he had inherited the Black family's property and became a playboy again. Black came to visit the house dressed neatly. During the chat, he pretended to be unintentional and told Lu Yuan that he wanted to set up the meeting place of his "little club" at the Screaming Shack, hoping to win over the owner of Lu Yuan. agree.
Unsurprisingly, he was scolded by Lu Yuan and then thrown out, along with a dog food bowl!
What a "little club", it's clearly Dumbledore's "Order of the Phoenix"! If Lu Yuan agreed to that group of people gathering here, he would not be able to clear his relationship with the Order of the Phoenix even if he jumped into the Yellow River! When the news leaks out, attacks from the Death Eaters and the Ministry of Magic will follow! And the person who leaked the news is probably from the Order of the Phoenix! Dumbledore has become very skilled in using this trick to draw people into trouble!
This is why Blake is too thin-skinned when facing Lu Yuan who has a life-saving grace! If it were Dumbledore, 80% of the time he would kill first and then tell the truth, and then pour a basin of dirty water on it before it becomes a fact! When the time comes, it will be either Xiang or Xiang.
Then there were the Ministry of Magic's taxes and the attempt to levy "resurrection from the dead", but Old 6 drove them out expressionlessly! For this reason, even restaurants in Luyuan have closed down! It seemed that Lu Yuan was satisfied with this crooked man's approach of refusing to touch anyone and thanking guests behind closed doors, and the harassment against him gradually became less and less.
Lu Yuan was oblivious to world affairs and concentrated on hiding at home with Elaine to conduct experiments. In his free time, he trained Cedric, Neville, and Harry who came over occasionally. However, the Weasley children come more frequently. They almost regard this place as a fixed meal spot to improve their food, and come here every weekend for a feast! And there is Hermione, who reads books on weekends, lives in a shack for a night, and then quietly leaves with the little Dark Devil before class...
"Who's crying?" Lu Yuan, who had just come out of the laboratory, heard someone crying and asked in confusion. "It's Qiu... you'd better go and see it yourself." Elaine said hesitantly, her face flushed with anger.
Lu Yuan opened the door and saw Zhang Qiu lying on Cedric's lap crying bitterly! And Xiao Sai's face was full of anger, and he was obviously very angry! "What's wrong, Zhang Qiu?" Lu Yuan's face darkened and he asked in a deep voice! Zhang Qiu is a Chinese after all, and he is his only fellow countryman in a foreign country! There is absolutely no way he would ignore Zhang Qiu's affairs!
Zhang Qiu said nothing and dodged when Lu Yuan came in. But Cedric held her hand and raised it with all his strength - only to see a line of words engraved on the back of Zhang Qiu's hand, deep into the flesh!
"Grass mud horse!" Lu Yuan cursed angrily and disappeared from the room in a flash!
…
In the afternoon, the teachers and students of the entire Hogwarts school heard a loud shout!
"Dolores Umbridge! Who gave you the courage to disgust me?!" The man stood on the highest tower, pointing his wand at the principal's office and said, "Since you are so disgusting, then... Just be a toad!"
Amid Umbridge's screams, a voice declared majestically.
"God said, you will always be a pink toad!" (To be continued.)
