Chapter 23: A Revolution

"Why don't we use them to buy books?" said Karl, jokingly.

With such a large sum of money, if it is taken out at one time and discounted by the Blotted Bookstore, it should be able to empty the bookstore.

"Carl, you can spare us!" George and Fred said in unison.

Carl shrugged, of course he was just joking, he had already gotten the approval slip for the forbidden book section, and the Blotted Bookstore no longer had any appeal to him.

"Or else...... We hid them," Carl remembered a place, "and we'll get them if we need them." ”

"Hide?" said Fred, "where can we hide? It's ten thousand Galleons, Karl. ”

Carl smiled, "I happen to know a place. ”

......

"Oh my God!" George and Fred inhaled excitedly as they looked at the huge room they were in, and the mountains of prohibited items inside.

There's the Room of Requirement, one of Hogwood's many secrets.

"Carl, how did you find here, it's not even marked on the map!" George looked excitedly at everything in front of him.

Ever since Carl gave the Hearthstone to the twins, the two told Carl about the map.

"As long as you have an eye for discovery. Karl said.

In fact, he'd been to the Room of Requirement several times, but he usually used it to practice his magic.

"You two don't rummage around!" Karl warned, watching George and Fred excitedly look around.

He had been to this room twice, but Carl hadn't turned over anything here.

He knew there might be some treasures here, but more of them were shady contraband, and he didn't know what magic was on them, and he didn't want to kill himself because of greed.

However, he did find the legendary Ravenclaw tiara, and when he first came here, he didn't touch it, just let it sit quietly.

He wasn't sure if Voldemort had done anything to it, and although it wasn't said in the book, it didn't mean that it didn't, and Harry Potter was okay when he touched it because he had Voldemort's soul in him, and he didn't want to risk his life.

The twins were restrained, they were smart, otherwise Carl wouldn't have brought them here.

Naturally, they thought of it, so they just looked around, but they didn't touch it.

"Come and see this! a set of pure gold wizard chess!" Fred shouted excitedly.

Karl went over and took a look, and it was indeed gold, very beautiful.

He immediately warned, "Don't touch it!"

He could vaguely feel that there was something bad on it, very dangerous.

"Come on, Carl, we're not stupid!" said George.

In fact, the main reason why they dared to hide the 10,000 gold galleons here was this, everyone who could come to this room knew the danger of the things inside, and no one would be stupid enough to rummage around.

"Let's go. After applying several protective spells to the chest, Carl turned to George and Fred.

......

Everything seemed to have calmed down, and the young wizards, while still talking about Hearthstone, went underground under Professor McGonagall's high-pressure intervention.

Until this day, Carl was quietly eating breakfast when Lee Jordan came over.

"Look at this, man!"

As he spoke, he handed over a newspaper, which was the Daily Prophet.

Carl only glanced at the title and knew what was going on.

The Daily Prophet reported on Hearthstone.

"That's it?" Karl glanced at him, tossed the newspaper back on the table, shook his head nonchalantly, and continued to deal with his breakfast.

"That's it?" Lee Jordan looked at Carl like a fool, "man, do you know how hot your game is right now?"

"Listen to this!" he said, grabbing the newspaper on the table and reading it aloud: "Hearthstone became a worldwide sensation as soon as it was released, and countless young wizards walked into the joke shop just to get it, and even many adult wizards became obsessed with the game.

β€”β€”Some people even commented that the appearance of "Hearthstone" is the greatest game invention since the appearance of Wizard Chess! It can be said that this completely different way of playing the game has set off a revolution in Wizarding games!

Lee Jordan finished reading the paragraph in a subdued tone, and immediately looked down at Karl.

"Okay. Carl nodded, and to be honest, it was exactly what he expected. If a game that has attracted countless fans in the 21st century can't be popular in the 90s of the 20th century, or the wizarding world with relatively little entertainment, then it is estimated that the whole world is crazy.

However, his perfunctory attitude made Lee Jordan very unhappy.

"Look at your attitude, man! alright?" Lee Jordan looked like a ghost, "If it's all 'okay,' then it's nothing! Dude! they've got your picture on it!"

"Wait a minute, what are you talking about, there's a picture of me in the newspaper?" Karl's eyes widened immediately.

"Of course!" Lee Jordan flipped a page of the newspaper and handed it to Carl.

Sure enough, a headshot of Carl is accompanied by a description below:

The inventor of Hearthstone, Carl Cooper, is a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in England.

Curiously, this photo is completely still, unlike the other photographs that animate.

Karl looked at his picture dumbfounded.

At this time, George and Fred also walked over, and the two of them looked excited, thinking that they had already read the newspaper.

"What are we talking about, Carl, your game is a revolution!"
