Chapter 455: School of Magic and Customs
"The three schools of witchcraft and wizardry in the Americas are mainly inherited from the three schools in Europe, and when I was in school, Hogwarts had an annual exchange student program, and students from the sixth grade and onwards could sign up for an audit, which was reviewed by the school board. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Sirius said, "However, I don't know when it started, the United States and Brazil suspended this exchange program!"
It's a pity, and if possible, Evan would like to exchange it for a look.
He had already gone through most of the magic books in the Hogwarts Library, and there was little point in continuing to stay.
Compared with studying the senior courses step by step and improving his strength, Evan wants to take a look at the American wizarding world and grow up in actual combat.
He had heard that the three magic schools in the Americas integrated the mystical magic of the ancient Mayans, Aztecs, and Incas.
The sorcerers there excavated a lot from the ancient ruins and used them as a basis for the study of magic, and there were many unique spells that were not found in Europe.
"Because of the superior environment, there are many magical beasts in the Americas, so most of the wizards there are proficient in raising magical animals. Sirius said, "As long as you can work in the Ministry of Magic, you will often meet wizards from the United States, who actually look no different from us. ”
"If you're going to get into the Ministry of Magic, then I don't think there's much chance of it!" Ron said disappointedly.
"Me too!" Harry said, having no idea what he was going to do after graduation.
Perhaps, he could become a professional Quidditch player like Wood.
The four of them move on while discussing the American wizarding world and various magical beasts.
As the sun rises, the campers on the grounds gradually wake up.
The first to get up were families with small children, and as they passed a large tent in the shape of a pyramid, they saw a little boy about two years old crouching outside, with a wand in his hand, happily poking a slug in the grass.
Under the influence of magic, the slug slowly swelled to the size of a sausage.
As they approached him, the boy's mother hurried out of the tent.
"How many times have I told you, Kevin, that you must not touch your father's wand again...... Ouch!"
She stomped on the giant slug, and the slug exploded with a snap.
They had gone far enough to hear her screaming in the silent air, mixed with the cries of a little boy.
"Haha, did you see that pyramid tent just now?!" Sirius said, in high spirits, "as we all know, the pyramids are the symbol of Egypt, and as the birthplace of an ancient civilization, there is also a school of magic there. ”
"There are a lot of Egyptian wizards in Gringotts, and I saw it the last time I visited Bill. Ron said hurriedly.
"That's right, the building of their school is said to be a pyramid where wizards from the Middle East and Africa usually send their children. Sirius waved his hand, "Of course, they have their own magical peculiarities and traditions, and for gifted young wizards, magic school isn't the only option. In South Africa, witchcraft is much more prevalent than decent spells, and each tribe has its own witch doctor who has many evil curses in his hands. ”
As soon as Sirius finished speaking, everyone saw three African male wizards sitting there talking about something solemnly.
They were all dressed in long white robes, and they roasted something like a hare over a purple fire.
Harry and Ron looked at them carefully, and sure enough, they didn't see the wand.
As Sirius said, wizards in Africa are accustomed to casting spells with their bare hands or using other bizarre items.
The purple flame looked eerie, but it was far less exciting than the dark wizard that Aven had seen before.
These three African wizards are obviously the more traditional and decent kinds, not the dark wizards who master evil curses and weird witchcraft.
Moving on, there was a group of middle-aged American male wizards sitting there chatting and laughing.
A gleaming banner hung high between their tents: Salem Wizarding Academy.
As we passed through the tent, there was a whisper of conversation, speaking in a strange language, not English.
"Sirius, where are the remaining four academies?" Harry continued.
He looked around excitedly, feeling like his eyes were running out.
A couple of little girls were laughing loudly as they rode low on two toy broomsticks.
Flying through the grass beside them, their feet brushing the dew-stained grass.
"The remaining four schools of magic and wizardry are all in Asia, one in South Asia, and three in East Asia!" Sirius said, "Let's start with the South Asia one, which is located in a certain part of India, and has not been established for a long time, and in terms of heritage, it can be said to be a branch of Hogwarts, because the founder there graduated from Hogwarts. ”
India has been a British colony for a long time, and the local culture has been heavily influenced by the British.
This can be seen among the Hogwarts students, where there are many young wizards from India.
For example, Padma Petyr and Padma Petyr, who are in the same grade as Harry and Ron, twin sisters from India, return home every year for the holidays.
"The school also has a partnership with Hogwarts, and in the past, it would like to send exchange students every year. Sirius said.
"Did the founder of that school graduate from Hogwarts?!" Harry asked curiously, "and are they just like us in terms of magic and curriculum?"
"It's about the same, but it's not exactly the same!" Sirius said, "I can't tell you the details because I haven't been there, but they obviously have some of the region's characteristics and a lot of unique magic, and the wizards there seem to be exceptionally gifted in herbology and potions." ”
South Asia is also very mysterious, and it may not be as pure evil and dark as the curses of Africa.
But needless to say, they must be even more bizarre, with a lot of witchcraft and magical animals that ordinary people have never heard of before.
"As for the remaining three East Asian magic schools, one of them is in Japan, which is the smallest and least staffed school in the world. Without waiting for Harry to ask, Sirius continued, "It is said to be located on the top of an uninhabited hill on South Iwo Jima, and the whole school is decorated with sheep fat jade, which is very oriental. ”
In Aiwen's mind, a classic Japanese castle in the shape of a castle tower was conjured up, made entirely of white mutton fat jade.
The castle is located at the top of an active volcano, which is shrouded in clouds and smoke rising from the volcano all year round.
It's only when the weather is good that you can see it in its entirety.
"In Japan, magic and wizarding are considered very sacred, so both the study of magic and the management of wizards are very strict. They begin school at the age of seven and are not allowed to graduate from school until they have completed 18 years of schooling and have achieved satisfactory grades. Sirius said, "I once read in a book that the uniforms of the students at that school would grow larger as their bodies grew and changed color with their grades, from pale pink at first to gold if they excelled in all subjects. If the robe turns white, it means that it violates the laws of Japanese magic, which is an illegal act, and will not only be immediately expelled from the school, but also be tried by the Japanese magic department.
