Chapter 59: Hogwarts Academy of Divine Arts (II)

At the end of late autumn and October, in the Kingdom of England, northwest of Oxford, the "Forbidden Forest" under the jurisdiction of "Hogwarts Academy of Divine Arts"

This lush, leafy so-called "forbidden forest" is, of course, not an original natural product, but a large artificial forest forcibly spawned by the travelers according to the setting of "Harry Potter", using the raw saplings in Doraemon's pocket and various 22nd-century biotechnology props to occupy dozens of miles of abandoned farms and pastures in the wilderness northwest of Oxford.

Well, of course, the traversers seem to be encroaching on fertile land by doing so, but since the three million English people on the island of Great Britain have now died in the plague with only a few hundred thousand, and there is no need for so many fields to grow crops, and there are not so many strong laborers to cultivate the land, then simply returning farmland to forests seems to be a good choice, at least to preserve water and soil - anyway, it can only be wasted, right?

Think of this forest as a nature reserve or forest park that has gone out of the ages, so you should have a picnic place

To get back to the point, like the Harry Potter setting, the Forbidden Forest is a vast eerie wood, overgrown with dense and tall trees that cover the entire sky. Among them, there is also a "beating willow", which is a tree that does not like to be touched; If touched, it will attack people...... Of course, other magical creatures, such as werewolves, centaurs, man-eating spiders, etc., don't dare to put them in - this copycat version of the Forbidden Forest is not isolated from the outside world, what if the monsters inside run out and breed wildly, causing a catastrophe of biological invasion?

At this moment, "Angel" Wang Qiu is teaching the first batch of Hogwarts students to use attack spells on a lawn on the edge of this artificial "forbidden forest" - unlike the basically harmless healing techniques, if these attack spells are smashed indoors, there is a real danger of blowing up the classroom, and even in the courtyard surrounded by high walls, it is still very unsafe, so they can only move further and move outside the school en masse......

“…… Meow, the omnipresent fire elf, please obey my call, condense and attack my enemies Meow - Fireball Technique"

In the mid-air above the lawn, along with this meowing spell drafted by Doraemon himself, under the effect of the magic prop [Encyclopedia of Magic], a ball of orange-red fireballs the size of ping-pong balls gradually condensed and formed on Wang Qiu's fingertips, and then I saw Wang Qiu flick his fingers, making this fireball fly far ahead, and finally exploded on a big stone, splashing countless small sparks.

“…… Do you see? This is the fireball technique, you all know the spell, now start practicing"

Wang Qiu flapped the "angel wings" behind him, slowly falling from mid-air, and instructed the Hogwarts students on the ground.

“…… Yes, Teacher."

The male and female cadets responded in unison, and then took out a spell manual printed with all thirty spells printed from under their robes - just like the Harry Potter setting, the students of this copycat Hogwarts house also wore large black wizarding robes. It's just that the pointed hat that is too heavy in the wizard's style has been canceled, so at a rough glance, it is almost the same as the black robe worn by middle-level and lower-ranking priests in these years.

However, unlike the underage wizards in the "Harry Potter" movie, among the students of this copycat version of Hogwarts House, there are a lot of old and middle-aged people, and the teenagers and girls are not there, and they look more like adult cram schools - four of them are the top big names who can shake Europe by stomping their feet: Gryffindor House seat - Pope Clement VI; Slytherin House - Andrea, Doge of Venice; Ravenclaw College Seat - Queen Joan of England. Gorse; Hufflepuff House - Giovanna, Queen of Naples and Countess of Provence...... The first students of the four academies were mainly cronies and family members of the four rulers mentioned above.

- Since there are only forty regular students in the entire Hogwarts house, this time the four houses are taking classes together, and anyway, these students are adults who have seen the world, and many of them have children and grandchildren, so it is not a big deal even if the class is mixed.

What's more, with their noble status, how many guys who are impatient to live dare to chew their tongues and chirp crookedly?

“…… Meow, the omnipresent fire elf, please obey my call, condense and attack my enemies Meow - Fireball Technique"

According to the romanized alphabet, imitating the tone of "Lord Angel" just now, reciting a Japanese incantation that he did not know the meaning of, Pope Clement VI felt the burning of his fingertips with excitement and excitement, and watched a small orange-red flame slowly appear in his hand...... Well, he had always thought that he was already very old, too old to be excited and excited about anything new, but looking at this incredible little ball of fire, Pope Clement VI still felt the shock and throbbing from the depths of his soul like an innocent child who had been given a novelty toy.

If it were possible, he would definitely try his best to use his power to completely monopolize this magical power in the church, no, it was limited to the religious order to which he belonged, or even his own family. But here's the problem...... Pope Clement VI sighed, and looked at King David of Scotland with the lion insignia beside him, the Doge of Venice with the snake emblem, the Queen of England with the eagle emblem, the Queen of Naples with the badger emblem, and the nobles and noblewomen who were seriously reciting incantations to the spell manual, and could only shake their heads helplessly.

Since this magical spell has spread so widely, it is impossible to take it back into the hands of the church.

Even in medieval Europe, where the religious atmosphere was strong, the actual power of the pope was far from supreme, let alone the papacy that migrated to Avignon, whose authority was much weaker than in the past, and it really did not have the strength to provoke so many powerful feudal monarchs head-on.

Therefore, after a brief period of depression, the Pope focused his attention on the spell in front of him, and with a flick of his fingers, he threw the small condensed fireball onto a tree a dozen paces away, exploding a scorched black mark. Then he tried to recite the fireball spell a second time......

All in all, under Wang Qiu's guidance one by one, correcting some error-prone tones and tones, as well as the speed of reciting each bar, the forty students present were happy to master the [Fireball Technique] - these wonderful spells that Doraemon used the magic prop [Encyclopedia of Magic] to concoct, after all, it is not "magic" in the true traditional sense, and it does not care about the talent and bloodline of the caster, nor does it pay attention to any elemental affinity. The barrier to entry is extremely low: as long as you don't stutter, can recite spells according to the "spell book", and can recite them fluently, then you can basically use spells. And these noble and superior people present can definitely meet the above minimum standards.

In fact, even the illiterate can use spells as long as they have a good enough memory to memorize these spells without making any mistakes

As a result, the teaching site, located on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, was soon filled with a tragic scene of fire, blowing up blades of grass and dirt, leaving ugly scorched black marks on the lawn and woods...... Until Wang Qiu nodded with satisfaction and gestured to stop.

“…… Very well, as the most basic fire-based spell, the Fireball Technique has now been learned by you. In the future, at least I won't be able to make a fire alone. However, if it is used on the battlefield, this power is a bit insufficient, and it is probably Cheng Dù who can deal with the little thief. Next, I'm going to teach you a relatively powerful fire-based spell - [Flame Explosion Technique]. This is the real battlefield spell

As for the more powerful fire spells, namely 'Dragon Breaker Slash and Meteor Shower', I can only ask you to find a wider place to practice next time - after all, none of you would want to burn Oxford to a sea of fire and the newly opened school to ruins."

Wang Qiu said a cold joke that made people laugh at all, and at the same time shouted a spell in fluent Japanese: "...... Meow Flame Elf Meow, please listen to my voice, turn your anger and power into a flame of evil that burns out, and gather here - Flame Blast"

In an instant, a fire dragon with a diameter of nearly two meters erupted, leaving a clear burning mark on the lush ground.

After a moment of silence, accompanied by the chaotic sound of flipping books, the chanting of various tones sounded one after another: "...... Meow Flame Elf Meow, please listen to my voice, turn your anger and power into a flame of evil that burns out, and gather here - Flame Blast"

As a result, one after another blazing fire dragons broke through the sky, quickly igniting the autumn forbidden forest where the grass and trees were dry......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

At noon that day, Doraemon used magical props to create a torrential rain, and only then did he barely extinguish the raging fire that had spread to most of the Forbidden Forest.

In the afternoon, the anxious Hogwarts students had to cheer up and drag their tired bodies to the rippling Yu Lake, where they learned a series of water-related "water spells" from Hansel and Gretel, two "silver angels" with very cute appearances and strange words and deeds......

In addition, they are eager to learn the [Complete Healing Technique] and [Group Healing Technique] that are indispensable in the plague era, the [Light Technique] for lighting at night and in dark places, the [Falling Technique] necessary to be able to jump safely from high places, and the [Missile Technique] similar to the effect of a small trebuchet, which angels often use to punish heretics...... With so many mouthful spells, the students, who were already quite young, and whose memory and learning ability had begun to decline, were so dry and sore in their throats that they read for a while, but they didn't dare to have a trace of negligence and carelessness.

Fortunately, no matter how awkward and cumbersome these mantras are, as long as you recite them a lot, you will naturally become proficient. Moreover, you don't have to memorize them, you just need to read them fluently with the booklet...... This greatly reduces the difficulty for them to master this new knowledge.

Finally, after two weeks of dizzying intense study, the angels finally smiled and announced to everyone that as the first full students of Hogwarts Academy, they had mastered all thirty spells and could graduate

-- And the beautiful magical era has officially arrived...... Although the Europeans of this world prefer to call it the "Age of Divine Charism"
