Ted returned to the dormitory, put down his schoolbag, and went to his old place with his guitar.
Sure enough, before the song was finished, Helena appeared.
"Did you discover anything last night?" She asked urgently, her voice still a little misty.
Ted hesitated, "I'm not sure. It may be some magic left by Ms. Ravenclaw..."
"Mother..." Helena's emotions could no longer be held in. Bright silver tears fell from her eyes, dropped to the ground and disappeared.
"I miss her so much, and I want to tell her I'm sorry. I failed her expectations..." Helena's sadness continuously overflowed from her eyes, dripped and disappeared.
How to comfort a ghost that has been around for thousands of years?
Neither Ted's superficial knowledge of psychic powers nor Muggles' less than a century of psychological research could touch this issue.
He could only listen silently to her cries and talk about the past thousands of years ago.
She talked about how she was jealous of her mother's reputation and wanted to become smarter and more famous than her mother. She thought that by stealing her mother's crown, she would gain her wisdom. She later died tragically in Albania without being able to see it in the end. A look at my seriously ill mother.
He even said that he was deceived by a Slytherin student forty or fifty years ago and told him the whereabouts of the crown. That is Voldemort...
Ted could only look at her while holding his guitar, and couldn't even give her a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"Well, it feels much better to say it. I have been holding these words in my heart for many, many years... Let's talk about my mother's statue. No one found out that she was enchanted for so many years." Helena strengthened.
It was indeed a very ordinary statue, a bust of Ravenclaw not wearing the legendary diadem, but with his hair hanging loose.
The reason why it has been preserved for thousands of years is that on the one hand, the material is better, and on the other hand, the magic of the castle maintains it.
Ted touched his face, "Maybe it's not ordinary magic, it's more like a group of thoughts..."
He wasn't sure what it was, but he sensed a special emotion through his underlying mental consciousness. Rather than ordinary magic fluctuations.
Otherwise, every generation of Ravenclaw headmasters are top talents, and there is no way they would be unaware of it. It can only be said that it is a field that is very different from the current magic system, and is even closer to psychic powers.
These words seemed to bring back some of Helena's memories. She was silent for a moment and said: "In the last few years, my mother did put down magic spells and many ancient magics, and turned to study some unusual magics. , I think I need some time to look it up..."
"Thank you, Ted." She thanked Ted and walked away through the wall.
…
The afternoon class passed too quickly, and as the little wizards looked forward to the evening, it slipped away as if they had no memory whatsoever.
Even after class, Ron and Jerry in the corridor forgot what class they had just attended!
But it doesn't matter, because two months after enrollment, the first festival and banquet will come.
The excitement in the castle became anxious~
Because of the dinner today, the dinner time will be later.
Ted and the other six were stunned as soon as they arrived at the auditorium.
The entire auditorium was illuminated by countless candlelights and braziers and was splendid.
On the ceiling of the auditorium, there was a large group of bats flying around the wall. From time to time, a lone one would hit the wall and disappear.
They are all conjured by magic.
A large number of pumpkins carved with grimaces were piled on the wall and beside the table, and some jack-o-lanterns were floating in the air, spinning around.
The pumpkin cakes are stacked high on the table and are steaming. A special sweet smell penetrates your nostrils hard, causing saliva to accumulate involuntarily, and then you swallow it with a "gulp".
"Ding~ Trigger holiday mission:
[Howling Halloween (Green)]
That's it? That's it? That's it? Eat some pumpkin pie, drink some pumpkin juice, watch the bats flying around, and touch the jack-o'-lantern? Halloween isn’t such a great time! If it were in the Muggle world, the school would have been trolled to death! Show them what Halloween really is!
Goal: scare 10 people before the dinner is over.
Progress: 0/10.
Reward: 200 experience, card [Ghost Cloak (Green)].
Put on the pumpkin hat, good luck will be wrapped around your head; put on the ghost clothes, good luck will dwell on you; wear Superman pants, you can't hide your happiness; step on the big boots, you will be more happy~"
Ted was awakened by the system, looked at the task carefully, thought for a moment, and whispered to his friends: "Friends, I think this is too ordinary..."
"Is this normal?" Ron's eyes widened - are your demands too high? !
Ted said: "As a new generation of wizards, we have the responsibility to make Halloween more interesting. I have a plan..."
Jerry: That sounds like something only a Gryffindor could say.
Harley: Did you steal my lines?
Ted: Come here, we are so, so, so...
Soon, not only Ted and the other six, but also the Weasley twins and their best friend and roommate Lee Jordan also joined the plan.
Just when most of the students had arrived and had started tasting pumpkin pie, they were waiting for the dinner to officially start.
Suddenly, a scream sounded.
The students were caught off guard, and all turned their heads to look at the place where the scream appeared.
At a side door, a bloody face appeared. It was unclear who it was, but judging from his clothes and figure, he was obviously a student.
He seemed to be trying to escape, but a ghost claw with swollen iron-green muscles grabbed the back of his neck, and then a bloody ax hit him on the head!
"Bang~" The boy's "corpse" fell to the ground with an ax on his head, and blood spread under his body.
A terrifying face peeked out from the door, as big as a wheel!
At the same time, a "biting" wind blew in from nowhere, and all the students who were still in a daze suddenly shivered.
Then, as if he woke up from a dream, more than a dozen or twenty screams sounded at the same time, almost piercing the transparent ceiling of the auditorium!
In an instant, the light in the entire hall dimmed. Under the flickering lights, countless little wizards were crying and howling, almost crawling all over the place to escape.
"Ding~Complete the mission [Haunted Halloween (Green)], reward: 200 experience, card [Ghost Cloak (Green)]."
[Ghost Cloak (Green)]
prop card
Wear: Disguised as a ghost, walking silently.
Note: Even if it looks similar, it can't go through the wall, so there's no need to try.
Then, a voice sounded: "Quiet!"
That voice was familiar to everyone, and it seemed to have some kind of soothing ability, which instantly calmed down the students who were so frightened that they almost ran away.
It's Dumbledore!
He and several professors appeared silently at the professor's chair at some unknown time.
Ted quickly waved to his friends in the dark: Come on! If it's too late, it's too late!
He was ready to take the blame, and the mission was accomplished anyway.
However, how could Snape let the naughty child go? ! He wanted to put all the naughty children in the crucible and boil them.
As a result, no one ran away, including Hermione.
"Oh, it's our Miss Know-It-All and Mr. Know-It-All, and..." He glanced at Harley, a feeling of hatred brewing.
"And a bunch of Gryffindor trolls!"
"Let me think about it, how should you be punished? For scaring students and trying to ruin the school's Halloween dinner, I recommend expulsion!"
Madd, Ted rolled his eyes when he heard this - do you still want to be shameless? Why don't you just sentence us to life imprisonment in Azkaban!
Of course the professors couldn't let Snape do this.
Dumbledore pointed his wand at his throat and silently used the Amplifying Charm (with a loud voice): "Students, please keep quiet. This is just a little joke played by friends on Halloween. I think it's quite interesting. of."
At this time, the students finally discovered that they and others had been deceived!
The "dead body" who was hit by an ax was played by Jerry.
The ghost who pretends to split his head is Ron riding Neville's neck, and the two co-starred.
The big grimace was conjured up by Ted using the Transfiguration Technique, and Harley controlled it behind the scenes.
Ted really didn't watch so many ghost movies in vain. This wheel face is really scary.
When it first appeared, Neville and Ron, who saw it appear with their own eyes, were trembling with fear.
The "biting cold wind" was caused by Ted using the freezing spell to create coldness, and Hermione using the hurricane spell to induce air flow.
The Weasley twins worked together to use the Extinguishing Curse. Although it could not completely extinguish the large number of candles and braziers in the auditorium, it could suppress the flames for a short time and significantly reduce the brightness.
Lee Jordan is the atmosphere team, responsible for screaming in the crowd and making everyone panic and unable to think rationally.
If the professors hadn't suddenly appeared, Ted and the others might have frightened the students so much that they wet their pants this time.
Ted's task was completed in an instant. He did not choose to scare everyone one by one, but did a big job. The number of people who were frightened just now must be at least a hundred.
Overfulfilling the task is a yes!
At this time, Professor McGonagall came out: "You guys almost ruined the Halloween party. 20 points will be deducted from Gryffindor!"
Professor Flitwick naturally had to express that although there were only two students in his college, according to Ted's confession, he was the mastermind. So Ravenclaw also deducted 20 points!
Ted looked at the task: [A student career without deducting points is incomplete (blue)], and the progress has reached 75/100!
Ted: I really want to laugh~
