The next morning, the students had a comfortable sleep and woke up naturally.
Sky Island floats in the sky, so it has the best sunlight. They slept too fast last night and did not close the windows, so the dazzling sunlight came in through the windows.
They couldn't help but open their eyes, reluctantly got off the comfortable big bed, and put on the uniforms prepared for them by the school.
It's a magic robe similar to Harry Potter's.
The first thing to do in the morning is naturally to see off the parents who stayed here all night.
However, not all parents have to leave. There are actually many positions within the school that need manpower.
For example, the school actually has to raise a group of animals to provide animals for Druid College's animal communication class and other courses.
For example, elk, falcons, etc., these little fairies don't know how to raise.
Helen's grandfather, Hyde, was lucky enough to be chosen because he had actually raised all of these.
When he was young, he even raised a few golden eagles to catch rabbits, and he was a very good eagle trainer.
There is also work in the kitchen. Part of the food at the banquet was actually bought, and the other part was made by Alicia instructing the goblins.
The cooking skills of those little goblins are truly beyond words.
But obviously Alicia can't watch them all the time, so she needs to find a professional chef at this time. In fact, there are actually many professional chefs among the parents of students.
This is of course good news for Helen. After all, she can continue to live with her grandfather.
But it is a bit embarrassing for some students whose parents are detained in school. After all, their family members work in the school and will easily attract the attention of other students. There are many topics, which may be a bit uncomfortable for some sensitive people. Too adaptable.
This can actually be applied to real schools.
After sending them to parents, the next thing to do is to buy the supplies needed for learning in the store inside the school, such as wands, crucibles, protective gloves, telescopes, brass scales, etc.
There are hundreds of stairs in Hogwarts. Some of them are wide and large, some are narrow and small, and they are rickety. They even lead to different places at certain times.
Sometimes, halfway through, a step will suddenly disappear, and there are many secret passages and secret doors, and some are not real doors, but walls behind them.
These students feel like everything in school is alive and moving.
This may be why the teacher asked them not to move around, because if they are not careful, they may get completely lost in this castle.
The students wake up at different times, and there is no large-scale flow of people to guide them, but fortunately, the goblins they meet along the way can guide them.
They finally found the alchemy shop located in the living area.
The living area is in an open space in the middle of the four colleges. There are many green plants planted here and some public chairs placed. The open space is surrounded by shops, including cafes, pubs, and even board game shops. .
It is surrounded by tall spiers and castle buildings, blocking the view. Looking from the outside, no one would have thought that there is such a place inside.
Some students are already here. They have bought the necessary items and are now sitting in the coffee shop drinking coffee and eating snacks.
Although the school provides loans within the school, it does not exclude these students from spending on their own.
All parents can exchange their own currency into Wizarding World currency through the bar.
It was a counterfeit gold coin made by Tony, which he named the Gold Mark.
It is not a gold coin, but it has the same luster as a gold coin. Its value does not lie in its material value, but in its special anti-counterfeiting magic. Currently, in this world, only they can issue it.
Albus and Gayward walked into the alchemy shop together.
The space here is larger than it looks from the outside, like a strictly managed library, and it seems to have an old feel because of the dark wood used.
Thousands of narrow boxes almost reaching the ceiling were stacked on the wall on one side, while some brooms were placed by the windows on the other side.
The dust and silence here seem to contain mysterious magic, which makes people feel terrified.
There were already other people here, and the couple Catherine and Harlon that they had seen at the banquet hall were chatting with Vice Principal Tony Stark.
Tony took a slender prosthetic leg made of unknown material and brought it near Harlon's right shoulder. Many fine silk threads protruded from the prosthetic leg and drilled into the shoulder until the prosthetic leg was completely integrated with the shoulder.
Haron controlled the arm and raised it, shook it, and said in surprise, "It's really no different from a real hand."
Compared with the prosthetic limb that Xia Ya gave to the godfather's niece and son-in-law before, this prosthetic limb was missing a lot.
The prosthetic limb he sent had a high degree of realism, and this one was like a bone hand without skin and flesh.
"It's a little short." Tony said, "This is for you temporarily. After half a month, you can come to me to change it. I will customize one for you and even give you a layer of camouflage color. To the naked eye it looks just like a real arm.”
The three ultimate goals in alchemy, turning stone into gold, artificial humans, and panacea, are also one of the main directions of alchemy. In fact, these three things require the Philosopher's Stone to achieve.
Prosthetic technology is an extension of artificial human technology.
In Tony's world, prosthetic technology is actually very mature, such as Bucky's robotic arm, and he has even made artificial humans himself, such as Ultron, who almost destroyed mankind.
However, compared to his artificial human technology, alchemy is more like imitating human skeletal neural network creation through alchemy's nano-level processing precision. In a sense, this is the real artificial human, not Artificial robot.
"Thank you." Harlon came back to his senses and thanked him, "How much does this arm cost?"
"No, let's wait until I customize your arm." Tony said casually.
He looked around, "Are you going to pick out some wands like the rest of the students?"
"We don't know magic," Harlon said.
"Since you live here, you will always come into contact with some magic." Tony smiled, "But you can buy some wands with their own magic."
"Bring your own magic?"
Tony's words clearly attracted Harlon's attention.
"What magic?"
"Have you ever heard of the Three Unforgivable Curses?" Tony said.
Harlon was a little confused, but he still shook his head.
Tony looked at Albus, who had been standing at the door, "Our little assistant coach should know better."
They looked at Albus, who slowly stepped forward upon seeing this.
"The three unforgivable spells are the most evil spells in black magic. They are the Cruciatus Curse - the person who is cursed will feel the pain that can tear apart the soul. It is a cruel spell used to torture people.
There's also the Imperius Curse - a spell used to control people.
and the Killing Curse, which, as the name suggests, destroys souls. "
Albus deliberately did not say their incantation, so he called them by another name.
"However, every time the Unforgivable Curse is used, it will bring terrible side effects."
"My wand has no side effects," Tony said.
He took down a very weird-looking thing from the shelf on one side. It was a little long and a little thick, and the handle had a curve for easy gripping.
"A 12mm long-range magic wand made of high manganese steel and a tungsten-manganese silicon core. It is 1447mm long. It features a life-killing wand with no side effects, making you invincible in wizard duels."
After a pause, he reminded, "It just can't be used on white wizards or school students."
Harlon looked at the thing with a strange expression. He had just come off the battlefield not long ago, so he felt an inexplicable familiarity with the appearance of this thing.
"Sir, is this really not a firecracker?"
"What is a fire gun?" Tony said displeasedly, "How could my wand be such a backward thing, with different ranges? What do you think, do you want to buy it?"
"Let's forget it." Harlon shook his head, "I don't want to fight and kill anymore. This is fine."
"Okay." Tony shrugged.
Harlon and Catherine also left here after thanking them.
Tony came back to his senses and looked at the two little guys, "So, are you here to buy wands?"
Albus and Gayward nodded.
Gayward pointed to the wand in Tony's hand that had no side effects and could kill anyone.
"I want this."
"Sorry, this is not for sale to minors." Tony silently put the wand back into the box and put it back on the shelf on the side.
At the same time, he took two more narrow boxes from the shelf on one side and opened them. Inside were two slender wands with a dragon entrenched on the handle.
"It's made of branches of the Arwak tree and the heart nerves of the fire dragon. It's nine inches long and quite flexible. Can you pick it up and give it a try?"
Albus and Gayward looked at each other, then picked up the wands and started trying them out.
The selection of wands is still very interesting. The characteristics of each wand are different because the materials used are different.
It was indeed a bit rushed to make more than a thousand wands in one month, but fortunately there were plenty of materials. The Arwak tree on Sky Island was the best wand wood, and every part of the dragon was also suitable for use as materials.
There are also many magical creatures in the fairy land, and even the hair of Char, a half-dream demon, can be used as wand material.
It just needs to meet the requirements for guiding magic power.
Of course, copying the HP world's wand design is not Tony's style. He also tried to make some other wands, such as his side-effect-free life-killing wand.
There is also an original ring-type "magic wand".
The advantage of this kind of magic generating device is that it is easy to carry, and you don't have to worry about being knocked down unless someone cuts off your fingers.
But it is undeniable that the accuracy of the wand-shaped spell-casting instrument is indeed higher than that of the ring type.
For those who are beginners in magic, using ring-type spell-casting props will cause the magic to fly around, but for those who cast spells without a wand, the ring is the icing on the cake.
In addition, he also customized a batch of alchemy gloves engraved with alchemy arrays to facilitate practice at any time.
All in all, after buying these things, I was ready to start school the next day.
Although the school gives them a day to get familiar with the school, getting lost is still the norm.
However, rather than getting lost, the naughty goblins troubled these students more.
Sometimes when you try to open a door, a little goblin dressed as a ghost will jump out from behind the door and scare you.
Although some goblins are willing to guide these students, if you are about to be late for class and meet a goblin who likes to play pranks, it will cause paronychia to hit the corner of the table, and another wave will arise.
Those little goblins will deliberately point you in the wrong direction, and even do some pranks on purpose.
Of course, you can actually report it to the teacher.
But the embarrassing thing is that when the teacher asks you which little goblin played the prank, your mind will be blank.
Because, these little fairies are basically the same!
They are all cuckolds, green clothes, and big red beards. The thick beards cover most of their faces, so naturally it is difficult to tell them apart.
Albus and Gayward once got lost and met two goblins. They said that one of them could only tell lies and the other could only tell the truth. Each of them pointed to the side of the road and could only ask one question and let them guess. Which way is true.
Moreover, they were almost late at that time, and Gaward did not tolerate them.
He directly caught one of the goblins and shaved off his beard, and then asked the other goblin if he had a beard. If he didn't, he would tell the truth, if he did, he would tell lies.
Since then, these little goblins have seen how far these two black and white demons can go around.
Fortunately, Ms. Catherine and Mr. Harlon will often patrol the dormitory building. They have magic maps on hand to guide these lost students.
However, Ibbs and Gayward still found their way to the auditorium for breakfast on the fifth day without any loss of direction along the way.
When they find the classroom, they have to face the course itself.
These students soon discovered that learning magic was no simpler than what they had to learn in schools outside. In addition to waving a wand and reciting a few fun spells, there was also a lot of profound knowledge involved in magic.
The most profound course is Mr. Stark's alchemy class.
Albus did not need to study basic courses. In addition to teaching students, he could study other elective courses. He took alchemy as an elective. He thought that he had a lot of magic knowledge and would be able to learn other magics with ease.
But when he took his class with several other Morgan College students, he realized that he was too naive. Subjects such as physics and chemistry were almost like bible books to him.
But since I have taken it as an elective, I have no choice but to study hard. Fortunately, Teacher Stark always welcomes offline questions.
It’s just that sometimes I have no patience and call them idiots, saying that I knew these things when I was four years old.
Ibbs obviously thought he was bragging.
But overall, he still likes this teacher very much, and his words are humorous. Of course, this is aside from the shortcoming that he likes to give people nicknames.
Stark named him one, Little Bee.
According to him, his new surname Dumbledore means "bee, wasp" in ancient English.
And because he has signed up for a lot of courses, he is as energetic as a bee, which he does not deny.
But his favorite, or perhaps the favorite of all students, was Teacher Alicia’s class.
This teacher is so stunningly beautiful. Even if you don’t learn anything, just watching in that class is a pleasure.
The most important thing is that although she looks very cold and avoids strangers, she is actually very talkative and gentle.
Therefore, almost everyone will sign up for her elective courses. Among all the teachers' elective courses, she is the only one who needs to take classes.
Of course, Teacher Isabel is also beautiful, but almost everyone can tell at a glance that she is difficult to deal with, strict, and smart, just like the dean in many people's impressions. The only difference is that this dean is very beautiful.
As soon as they sat down she gave them a slap in the face.
"Druid transformation magic is a very dangerous magic." She said, "If anyone is mischievous in my class, I will throw them off the island in the sky. Don't worry, I will catch them." Yours."
Although they didn't quite believe that Isabel would really do this, it was undeniable that these magicians really had the ability to catch them before they fell.
However, in Isabel's class, you can interact with small animals, go to the forest, learn about plants and fungi, and understand their uses.
These are very novel and interesting knowledge, so many people like it.
Especially the magic that can transform between animals and humans at will is really attractive.
Ibus can also do some similar magic, such as Animagus, but the animals transformed by Animagus are uncontrollable, which is incomparable.
Apart from these, the class that Albus found most interesting was the class taught by Principal Merlin. As he said, he only occasionally came to teach other classes on his behalf.
But there are about three classes a week that he will definitely take, and that is astrology class.
As a legendary magician, Merlin naturally knows astrology.
It is also the only course that takes place in the evening.
They used telescopes to observe the starry sky. The height of Sky Island was enough for them to observe the most beautiful stars and galaxies.
They learned the names of different stars and observed the movements of the planets. Merlin told stories about each constellation they knew.
They are some ancient myths and stories, many of which Albus has never heard of.
The mythological stories of this era, especially Greek mythology, have not yet been unified and integrated, so they are relatively fragmented.
The door to an ancient world slowly opened to these magic apprentices.
The students soon discovered that Principal Merlin's knowledge was as vast as the vast ocean, and he was very good at telling stories. Many myths could be told as if they were personal experiences.
Could it be that you really experienced it personally?
people thought.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t know so many stories.
