Chapter Eighty-Seven: A Lot of Ideas
"Kane Shafiq!"
With McGonagall's roll call, Kane strode forward and took his seat.
As soon as the dirty hat was put on his head, he immediately began to shout: "Wise, far-sighted, incalculable erudition, diligence, fearless of hardship, pure-blooded, super magical, legendary blood, unimaginable power......"
A buzzing sound began to sound below, getting louder and louder, and it was all whispering, but there were too many people talking, and the chorus became louder.
"It's too strong, I've never seen that broken hat compliment a person so much. β
"Don't say it's you, I guess the professors haven't seen it either, right?"
"It's not surprising that he has shown strength at King's Cross. β
"The greatest demon in the history of Hogwarts has been born, and I think he will be Dumbledore's successor. β......
Kane also thought it was amazing, he deliberately turned off the normal overflow of soul energy, but the Sorting Hat still completed the detection of him in the first place.
"It's not just a matter of peeking into thoughts, it's about having a certain ability to look at the strings of fate, and it's one of Hogwarts' most magical creations. β
Kane wasn't discouraged by being spied on by the Sorting Hat, on the contrary, he was happy.
Facts have repeatedly proven that the wizarding system in this world is simple but not simple, and the low combat power of wizards is not a pot of technology.
For a man like him, who regards knowledge as his most valuable asset, this is a world worth exploring, and this is good news, and he is naturally happy.
At this time, the Sorting Hat was already asking for his opinion: "You are suitable for any house, and you will surely become the brightest star." Where would you like to go?"
Kane said: "Wisdom and erudition are what I am most proud of. β
As soon as the Sorting Hat heard Kane say this, he shouted in a long voice, "Ravenclaw!"
"Wow!"
'Whoa!'
Some people applauded, some people slapped desperately, basically all of them were Ravenclaw.
Many people in Slytherin are constipated, what a powerful pure-blood wizard, coming to Slytherin, he will definitely be able to sweep the three courtyards with a group of snakes. It's a shame! Why do you want to be a nerd so much? I can't figure it out!
At the end of the Sorting House, Dumbledore spoke, and the Philosopher's Stone was still lying quietly in the vault of Gringotts, and Dumbledore didn't say anything alarmist, just warned the new students that the Forbidden Forest was not allowed to go.
But after this, Dumbledore cleared his throat: "Just today, we have one more warrior at Hogwarts, who stood up at King's Cross, when evil was raging, resolutely stood up, defeated evil, saved his classmates, and defended the personal safety of students and their families. This warrior is Mr. Kane Shafiq!"
Kane, who sat closest to the pedestal in Ravenclaw, stood up and greeted the professor and the students.
And everyone responded with warm applause.
Dumbledore stretched out his hands to signal everyone to be at ease, and then continued to say in a loud voice: "In order to reward Mr. Shafiq for his heroic deeds, Hogwarts has decided to award Mr. Shafiq the Special Contribution Award!
'Whoa!'
This time, there is more of a polite component.
There are three major Hogwarts awards, the Querces Cup, the House Cup, and the Special Contribution Award.
The last one is the most expensive, and few people get it.
In the original history line, Ron and Harry would receive the award for destroying the Snake in the Vault Room.
The other is Tom Riddle, also known as Voldemort, who unleashed the serpent, causing the Ministry of Magic to try to close Hogwarts.
Once the school closes, Tom has nowhere else to go, and he blames Hagrid and succeeds. Because of the meritorious report, he won this honor.
Of course, very few people know the truth of this incident.
The reason why the apprentices did not respond enthusiastically to this award was because so few of them received the award that they lacked a sense of intimacy, and many of the apprentices even lacked a concept of it.
Kane has no interest in honor per se, but he understands that human value is also value.
What's more, Dumbledore's statement was tantamount to setting up a stage for him, which was exactly what he needed right now.
He smiled at Dumbledore and said, "Your Excellency, can I say a few words?"
"Of course. Dumbledore stepped out of the way.
At this point, most people thought Kane was going to be polite and impromptu with an acceptance speech.
And the professors knew very well that Kane was afraid that something was going to happen.
They are both curious and a little expectant, what is the true nature of this teenager who was praised as a super genius by the Sorting Hat?
What happened at King's Cross, after all, they had never seen it with their own eyes, and Kane Shafiq was far from three-dimensional in their impression.
Kane walked up to the stage with a dignified gesture, as if he were also a professor, and bowed slightly to Dumbledore and the professors again.
"Confident, calm, polite, famous. The professors secretly gave a thumbs up.
Kane turned to the wizard apprentices and said, "Delay everyone for a few minutes, and I'll give you a meeting gift later, well, I saw that someone over there already had a look of anticipation, I think it's well-informed, and I know that the Shafiq family is not short of money now." β
The people who laughed a little lower let out a laugh. Most of the professors didn't care, this opening remark did have a certain effect of relaxing the atmosphere, but if it was just throwing money at it, it would be too disappointing.
Dumbledore stroked his beard and continued to observe in silence. He knew that Kane would inevitably take the opportunity of this gathering of personnel to make a big move, most of which was related to the magic stars.
He had studied that magical creation in the past few days, and he could only say that it was really an amazing creation, and if it was a whole system, he felt that he was fully qualified to be classified as a miracle.
But that's exactly what worries him.
This kind of creation has very high requirements for the technical level of the creator, as well as material resources and time.
To put it simply, even a long-lived genius like Nicholas Flamel would need to invest a lot of time and effort to be able to develop a creation of this level.
And such a magical creation is also difficult to keep secret.
Flamell's invention of the Philosopher's Stone was done with his assistance.
The system of magic stars is much more difficult to develop than the Philosopher's Stone, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the kind that can be created by one's own strength.
In addition, the role of the magic star determines that it will inevitably be widely concerned by wizards no matter what era it is.
However, he had consulted a lot of information these days, but he had not been able to find even a single clue about it, as if this technology had never appeared in this world before.
That's what worries him.
Su Hui, this concept is very mysterious, but it is not really possible to come and go empty, rationally analyze, it still has traces to follow.
You can't remember who you were in your previous life or what era you lived in, but you can find out the skills you have mastered. In particular, how could this miracle-level creation system, which was about the magic power of wizards, not leave any traces in the classics?
Dumbledore didn't feel that he was nitpicking, and in his perception, the more powerful the person was, the more he needed to be cautious, and he couldn't easily let down his guard and give trust. Otherwise, once the belief is wrong, it will be a great disaster.
He tried very hard to gather all the information about Kane, but it didn't work out well.
He analyzed and found that most of the relevant information was released by the Shafiq family themselves. It is clear that Kane has a strong sense of counter-reconnaissance.
Against this backdrop, he became more and more concerned about his timely interactions with Kane.
"It is necessary to have in-depth contact as soon as possible to understand their temperament and aspirations. The mystery of the demise of the Carrett family in 1853 is a task that needs to be speeded up in preparation......"
Dumbledore secretly calculated that he didn't want to miss the Shafiq family's bounty of 10 million gold Galleons. As long as you get the main part of this bounty, then many projects can be revitalized.
He still has a lot of projects in his hands, but he has no money and has been shelving......
At the same time, Kane was talking about sleepy nonsense: "When I received the invitation to Hogwarts, I was very excited. Hogwarts is the best school of witchcraft and wizardry in the UK, one of the top three schools of magic in the world, and is home to the Honourable Arbus Dumbledore, who is recognized as the first white wizard of our time. The professors are also elites in the industry, top first-class figures. It is a great honour for me to study here......"
That's it? Just this kind of impersonal official and clichΓ©?
When some people were already impatient, Snape frowned slightly, and he unconsciously stroked his jaw with the back of his fingers, and said to himself: "This guy, I'm afraid he's paving the way for a shocking act, right?"
