Chapter 8 Classes

Sure enough, the next morning, all the new students in the dormitory were lost, it is said that there are a total of one hundred and forty-two stairs in Hogwarts, which is enough to make people dizzy, and this is not the worst, they will keep changing, Darren experienced a time when the stairs he was climbing suddenly moved in the other direction, and he immediately fell into chaos, he remembered this path last night, and couldn't help but let out a wail, "There is no one in this place to take care of!" ”

It's a pity that no one responds to his calls at all, no wonder that administrator Filch is so unwelcome and always hacked, this typical job is not in place. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

What's even more maddening is that, in addition to the staircase, there are all kinds of doors that also make these new students extremely distressed, some of them have to be politely asked to open, while others have to be poked in the right place, otherwise they will not be able to pass through; There are even some doors that are not real doors at all, just a wall that looks like doors, and I don't know if the designers or former students made it to prank the current students.

Fortunately, some of the ghosts are very kind and will tell the freshmen the right path, otherwise Darren suspects that there will definitely be freshmen who will starve to death in this small-looking castle because they get lost!

Fortunately, Darren got up a long time in advance and went out, so he was not late, but this was at the cost of giving up breakfast, but some children were obviously not prepared, but then again, who would have thought that such a big castle could be walked around for more than an hour without finding the north......

With the lessons of the first day, Darren used the time after dinner to jot down the route from Gryffindor to the dining room, including the route after the staircase was deformed, and finally made it to breakfast, but unfortunately, it is difficult to say whether this is a good thing or not.

Because breakfast time is also the time to deliver letters, and at Hogwarts, it is the owl who is responsible for delivering letters. As a result, just above the table, flocks of owls flew around, and there were constantly owls landing on the table, throwing letters or parcels on their laps, although no owls did anything uncivilized, but a hundred or so owls swirled overhead, and the threat of air raids at any time still made Darren frightened, only grabbed a few slices of bread and smeared them with butter, and quickly slipped away.

As a freshman, Darren's first semester classes only include herbology, history of magic, charms, transfiguration, defense against the dark arts, potions and flying, and of course, according to the schedule, every Wednesday night, he also uses a telescope to observe the starry sky and learn the names of different stars and the trajectories of the planets, which should lay the foundation for future divination classes.

After a few days of study, Darren first gave up the history of magic, not because the history of magic teacher is a ghost, in other words, this ghost professor who was transferred directly from the Hogwarts history of magic professor, although the class is monotonous and has a very hypnotic effect, but compared to the highest level that Darren has ever seen, there is still a bit of a gap, what really makes Darren unbearable is that the course of history of magic is completely composed of a series of biographies, or the family history of several magic families, xx year x month x day, xxx invented what magicOr some potion, or something like that.

As for the exam, with Darren's combined decades of study experience, for this kind of subject, as long as the chronology is stretched out two weeks before the exam, it is enough to cope with the exam, anyway, Hogwarts does not have short-answer questions and quiz questions with standard answers, as long as it is very similar, you can pass the test.

The second one that was given up by Darren was Defence Against the Dark Arts, after an extremely failed class, Darren was very disappointed at first, although Quirrell was a little stammering, but after all, he was a professor, he originally thought that he could learn something from the class, but it turned out that he really didn't get anything, let alone spells, and he couldn't even listen to a case (story), and then suddenly remembered that Professor Quirrell died in the end and there was no one left to preside over the exam, so to hell with the Defence Against the Dark Arts class.

But the other classes are not so easy, herbology is led by a short and fat witch named Sprout, three times a week, the new students have to go to the greenhouse behind the castle under her guidance, learn how to cultivate these strange plants and fungi and understand their uses, to be honest, although those flowers and plants are very interesting, but it is very hard to serve, and the air in the greenhouse is not circulated, that smell, after all, this is not a botanical garden......

It wasn't until Charms class that Darren really had the opportunity to come into contact with magic, and Professor Flitwick was magical enough to teach, surprisingly short, no wonder he was rumored to have goblin blood, so he had to stand on a stack of books during class to reach the lectern, or rather, let everyone see him, and not "just hear his voice and not see him".

But the professor also practiced the old saying "people should not look good", with a deep foundation, a good lesson to the little wizards, after his explanation, Darren felt that the obscure spell textbook was no longer so daunting, this kind of teaching level, even if Darren has been in his second life combined, he has only seen it once before, and it is difficult to find a good teacher.

The first class to use a wand was Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class, which was the first day to greet new students at the gates of Hogwarts Castle, and Darren knew that she was definitely not an easy teacher to deal with, but after Dumbledore's death, she was the first to come out at Hogwarts to fight Voldemort.

It's a pity that the professors who have seen other courses are either waste wood or kind, and the freshmen don't pay attention to the Transfiguration class at all, especially when they arrive in the classroom and find that there is only a cat on the podium, laughing and having fun, not to mention Harry and Ron, who are simply late.

As a result, when the cat became Professor McGonagall, they were all dumbfounded, and only Hermione whispered to Darren, "Wow, she's an Animagus, and there are very few wizards who can become Animagus." ”

This made Professor McGonagall's face less stiff, and after scaring Harry and Ron into turning them into watches to make sure one of them could attend class on time, and then driving them back to their seats, she said, "Transfiguration is the most complicated and dangerous spell you have in Hogwarts class, and anyone who gets naughty in my class will ask him out and never let him in again, I warned you." ”

And to reinforce the students' impressions, she turned the lectern into a pig and back again.

It has to be said that this practical teaching method is still very effective in increasing the students' interest in learning, and a group of young wizards are eager to start learning right away so that they can ride out on their desks, but they soon find that it will take a long time to turn furniture into animals.
