Chapter 293: The "Big Flickers" who went online collectively
"Headmaster Dumbledore, there must be something strange about this!"
Dumbledore was about to rely on his prestige as Headmaster to force down the farce between Harry and the Sorting Hat, but Professor Trelawney rushed into the Great Hall with several cups of tea in his arms.
Under normal circumstances, the professor of divination will not appear at the opening ceremony, and the seat of the guest of honor is limited, and it is generally only for the professors of the main department to be seated.
Of course, Hagrid has always had a place in the faculty table, and Dumbledore's cultivation of Hagrid is obvious, and it is estimated that Hagrid himself is the only one who can't feel it because he is too simple.
Seeing that the divination professor he hired actually backstabbed him openly, Dumbledore tucked both hands into the sleeves of his wide wizarding robes, but at an angle that no one else could see, at this moment, the old Deng was pinching his hands fiercely in the sleeves, trying to suppress the anger that had accumulated because he was frequently interfered with with his perfect plan.
"Don't worry, Sybil." The corners of Dumbledore's eyes twitched slightly, but he still spoke slowly, his voice unhurried, "Please take a seat, if there is any problem, we can sit down and talk slowly, this will also help you clear your mind." ”
It's a pity that Trelawney, the female teacher, was a little pretending to be a ghost and crazy in the past, so she naturally couldn't understand the implied meaning of the "leader's" words at this time: "Help you clear your mind, just let you think clearly, don't say some things that shouldn't be said." ”
Where did our poor divination professor understand this kind of "Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace", holding her crystal ball and holding the messy teacups, she happily walked towards the guest of honor.
Dumbledore waved his wand, and on the far right of the teacher's seat, the one who had just appeared in the Great Hall today, presumably next to Professor Quirrell, the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, was stretched out of thin air, a soft chair with a back appeared out of thin air, and a set of delicate cutlery instantly appeared on the table.
Trelawney bowed to Dumbledore before sitting down on the extra seat, tapping her wand on the empty glass and whispering "Sherry".
"Tons and tons of ......" Trelawney, who drank two glasses of sherry in a row, became a lot more rosy.
It had been a long time since she pushed the door in, and our poor Harry was still standing in the middle of the field, obviously tired, but at this time he was already scared to a certain extent, how dare he sit down easily.
Perhaps because of the courage of the wine, two glasses of wine in the stomach, the professor of the divination class, who used to be submissive but often startled, behaved as if he had discovered the real murderer, and pointed to Harry Potter, who was still standing in the center of the field, and said, "I foresaw his future!" ”
Dumbledore's face changed.
You must know that Trelawney is not actually a good [soothsayer], let alone a prophet, and the prophet of the wizarding world often needs two things: the control of deduction and time to the extreme (here it represents Nicol Lemay, he is a real prophet), and the other is the inheritance of the "prophetic talent" from the bloodline.
Yes, prophecy and divination are gifted, and Professor Trelawney is the great-great-granddaughter of a true prophet called Kassandra Trelawney.
While the talent that Kassandra prophesied in her bloodline had diminished over the generations, Trelawney had inherited more than she knew.
It's just that the young Trelawney did not have a diviner-skilled "guide" around her to help her develop this talent, so Trelawney can only use Kassandra's great-granddaughter and her original dramatic performance to make half-believing predictions to others.
For example, "My Heavenly Eyes told me that water is poisonous, and that everyone who drank it died." ”
Another example is "If you drink milk every morning, you will never live for 30,000 days." ”
"You will die, you will die."
As long as you cast a wide net, you will definitely encounter one or two unlucky people who happen to have misfortune, and then Trelawney's name as "prophet" will be handed down.
She got the job at Hogwarts because of her fate.
Although she didn't know and couldn't actively activate the talent passed down from her ancestors, it was destined that Trelawney was a blessed person.
When she faced Dumbledore's interview, the tricks of the past were completely hidden in Dumbledore's wise eyes, and Trelawney began to become incoherent in her desperation.
Dumbledore shook his head, he had already seen that the great-great-granddaughter of the "Prophet" was an uneducated liar, and this interview was just one last chance Dumbledore gave her.
But at this moment, Trelawney, who was already unconscious and in a state of panic, spoke, and she made a prophecy.
At first, Dumbledore thought that she was still pretending to be a ghost, and it was not until she could use [Regent's Mind] to read the slightest thought in Trelawney's mind, but when Trelawney continued to speak intermittently, Dumbledore was sure that the prophetic talent in this woman's blood had been triggered.
Trelawney made a prophecy, a prophecy that would make Dumbledore willingly feed her for the rest of her life, a prophecy that would change the history of the wizarding world and give Dumbledore the confidence that he could defeat Voldemort once and for all.
"The man with the power to conquer the Dark Lord approached...... Born into a family that defeated the Dark Lord three times...... Born at the end of the seventh month......
The Dark Lord has labeled him as a fierce enemy, but he has an energy that the Dark Lord does not understand......
One must die at the hands of the other, because neither can both live, only one survives......
The one who has the power to conquer the Dark Lord will be born at the end of the seventh month......"
Afterwards, she didn't remember what she had said at all, and even if she used the [Regent's Mind] to investigate again, she still didn't have any memory.
A prophet who can both predict and be truly tight-lipped at the same time, what about Dumbledore raising her for the rest of her life?
The highest level of secrecy is that you don't know what a secret is, and Trelawney was extremely satisfied with this.
Dumbledore agreed to her job offer and let her stay at Hogwarts as a divination teacher, both to protect her and to make more real predictions in the future.
As for whether this uneducated female liar will affect her students' grades......
Please, the discipline of divination requires talent from one in 100,000 or million, and if you really foresee a student with a talent for divination, even if Trelawney teaches it indiscriminately, the other party can play a unique shining point and be discovered by Dumbledore.
So Dumbledore wasn't afraid of really delaying gifted students.
Right now, Trelawney's words, "I foresaw Harry's future!" Dumbledore shook his left hand and almost missed the cup in his hand!
Lao Deng doesn't believe in heaven or earth, that is, he believes in the prophecy of divination, and sure enough, there is no invulnerable person in this world.
Is there anything you can't say in private? You've just planned the whole process of raising Harry, what are you doing now?
I only heard Trelawney holding the crystal ball and said slowly: "In the afternoon, I was drinking, ah no, it was drinking tea, well, drinking tea, and suddenly on a whim, my Tianmu sensed a powerful [force] slowly approaching this school." ”
On the Hufflepuff table, Li Fei's eyes froze.
Beside Trelawney, Quirrell's body suddenly stiffened, and he leaned back unconsciously, until the back of his head hit the back of the chair, and Quirrell let out a strange cry and straightened up like an electric shock.
Trelawney's words continued: "So, I put a lot of effort into arranging the 'Seven Stars Prophecy' composed of seven teacups, and tried to parse it with my crystal ball, and finally came to the conclusion that Harry Potter would one day be imprisoned in Azkaban Prison...... Inside...... Something was written silently. ”
Hearing Trelawney say that she used tea leaves and her crystal ball, the key is that she still remembered the content of the prophecy, Dumbledore didn't believe her at all.
But Dumbledore didn't believe it, it didn't mean that others didn't believe it, the whole hall was like a market in an instant, with noise, discussions, and questions.
"Bell, bell!" Dumbledore tapped the crystal cup that Li Fei had given him with a metal spoon, and a crisp sound of tapping echoed throughout the Great Hall.
The students' chatter gradually stopped, and Dumbledore soothed the words written on his face with a gentle and firm look, "Then I'm leaving?" "Potter's little friend.
"Don't be alarmed, prophecy is prophecy because it means that the future is infinitely possible, and our Professor Trelawney has only foreseen the most unfortunate of all the possibilities.
People have to face many temptations and choices, even if they are as strong as me, I still have experienced the temptation of almost degenerating into a dark wizard, as long as there is love in our hearts, there is a bottom line that is enough to overcome desire, then each of us can become the master of destiny! ”
Dumbledore's speech was shocking, the young wizards were no longer afraid, and began to cheer, and Li Fei in the audience couldn't help but smile and applaud the headmaster's speech.
Hannah, who was sitting opposite Li Fei, had been secretly paying attention to Li Fei, and in just a short time, the second-grade senior sister next to her had already introduced Li Fei's dominant experience last year.
Hannah is a half-blood wizard herself, and she couldn't have imagined that Li Fei, who was also a first-year freshman last year, would have such a brilliant record.
Before the division, the fourth-year Slytherin seniors were scared with only a few words;
Transfiguration class to appease bald schoolgirls;
The Astronomy Tower fights the Death Eaters alone in the middle of the night;
100,000 miles to return to his hometown in China to accept the inheritance;
Halloween Dark Wizard heroically saves his classmates;
Hufflepuff Extra Points, a single extra point has already surpassed the total score of any other college in the school;
The dueling table single-handedly burned the fourth-grade senior, and he was unharmed;
worked with the professor to develop a potion to stabilize the werewolf's state, and was nominated for the Merlin Order of the Second Degree;
And...... The senior sister whispered that one of Li Fei's pet cats had an inexplicable ambiguous relationship with the vice principal, Professor McGonagall......
Oh my God, with so much glory piled up, what a miraculous man this young man with an oriental face and an extremely warm look in front of him!
Under the inquiry of Susan, who had just met, another senior sister said that Li Fei had very clear criteria for choosing a mate, and she did not shy away from the initiative and enthusiasm of girls - blonde hair, blue eyes, and long legs.
In Susan's laughter of "Then Hannah, you have a chance~", Hannah's already red cheeks instantly turned red, and she shyly touched her braided blonde hair, and the only thing that did not meet the requirements was her somewhat thick legs.
Although little Hannah is only 11 years old, who dares to pat her chest and say that she never liked a boy or girl in the same class or grade when she was in junior high school?
At this time, Li Fei was staring at Dumbledore, looking at Li Fei's side face, Hannah suddenly wanted to lose weight.
Seeing that Li Fei had no longer communicated with him since he had expressed his warm welcome to Hufflepuff, but instead fixed his eyes firmly on Dumbledore, who was chatting in the faculty seat, Hannah couldn't help but also look at the child standing next to the round bench in the sorting house.
As a half-blood wizard, Hannah naturally heard of Harry Potter from her father, knowing him as "a great man", the "savior" of the wizarding world, and the legendary "boy who never died".
It can be said that Hannah's group grew up listening to the legend of Harry Potter, and Harry is what their parents call "someone else's child".
I saw the young figure standing blank and helpless in place, because his body shook slightly because he had stood for too long.
Empathy, Hannah doesn't know how long she can hold out in this embarrassing turmoil without breaking down, if she were herself, she might cry, right? Definitely, it will be a big shame to be embarrassed by then.
On the long table of Ravenclaw, Zhang Qiu's hand was clenched tightly, and his palm had left a deep imprint.
Looking at the figure that he was looking forward to day and night and was being accused of madness by the female professor who taught the divination class, Zhang Qiu couldn't wait to stand up and refute the professor directly.
Who is he?
He's the famous Harry Potter!
How could he be imprisoned in the infamous Azkaban prison if he was the "savior", the knight who guarded himself, the light that illuminated himself in the darkest hour!
Zhang Qiu almost stood up, and subconsciously looked in the direction where Li Fei was, after all, in her heart, Li Fei was her fellow countryman, and she was also the most mature and reliable existence among her peers.
I wanted to get up, but I was stopped by Li Fei gently waving his hand, Li Fei kept observing Zhang Qiu with his peripheral vision, for fear that she would make some irrational movements.
It is difficult to maintain the luck of a world for the two protagonists to share at the same time, unless one of them is willing to be subservient to others, or one of them becomes the first person of the villain.
Li Fei wants to see if after he crosses over to this world, can the original "world protagonist" and the real core character still rely on the protagonist's aura to enlarge his breasts and become auspicious in the face of a crisis, and not suffer a big loss?
Li Fei didn't say a word about this kind of thought to others, even if it was the ancient first mage he trusted so much, Li Fei and she still didn't say a word.
Now is an excellent opportunity, Harry because of Li Fei's butterfly wings intentionally flapped, driving the follow-up sorting hat naughty and Harry's stress reaction, coincidentally, Trelawney jumped out again to "grab the heat", forcing Headmaster Dumbledore to appear in person, relying on the headmaster's identity to help Harry out of the siege.
"Professor Dumbledore, your headmaster's prestige is your last hole card, is it really good to play it in advance?" Li Fei thought in his heart, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile of "nuclear goodness".
The reason why I said this was because Li Fei's "spiritual sense" that had been strengthened by the magic power of the great god of Agomoto had already sensed it, and another uninvited guest was running towards the auditorium quickly.
I thought that today's farce would end hastily with Dumbledore himself, but I never thought that there would be an unexpected joy.
The door to the auditorium was pushed open again, and Versace was most familiar to him, Professor Aurora Sinista, who taught astronomy.
"Headmaster Dumbledore, the signs of the stars have changed terribly since last night!"
Professor Sinista took a breath and had just finished stargazing from the Astronomy Tower, when she hurried towards the hall with her notebook, the matter was too serious to delay for a minute.
"Originally, Mars should be very bright tonight, the moonlight is dim, the brightness of Mars indicates change and turnaround, although I don't know whether it is good or bad, but after all, it is still within the controllable range, and I don't need to bother you about this matter.
But from dusk, first the celestial signs gave a warning, and then the astrological signs also showed terrible signs!
Venus, the closest planet to us in the past, began to shine brightly.
As you know, Venus itself doesn't shine, it just reflects the sun's rays, but because it's so close to us, it looks very bright.
But tonight's Venus is at least ten times brighter than before, as if it had been provoked by some kind of provocation and burst into a counterattack.
That's okay at all, but tonight's North Star suddenly becomes extremely dim, and you know, the brightness of Mars and the dimness of Polaris are often a sign of terrible calamity to come!
In astronomy, the North Star is particularly important.
The North Star represents guidance, and it often represents certain people with leadership qualities who are able to lead their followers to the meaning of their goals, just as it allows us to discern directions.
Now that the North Star is dim, I have reason to suspect that there is someone who was born to lead the wizarding world to great change, and his [power] has changed, and is weakening at a rate that is visible to the naked eye. ”
Versace was the best at astronomy among his students, and Professor Sinista was eager to treat Versace as his heir, although Versace may not have his own unique introduction to astronomical divination, but this did not prevent him from learning from the professor the meaning of common constellations.
In Versace's view, the only person who can represent the North Star may be Li Fei.
Note that it is not very possible, but only Li Fei, because the North Star symbolizes loyalty, steadfastness, perseverance and unchanging protection.
What is this, isn't this the quality that Hufflepuff House is looking for?
In the past ten years, who else can be so suitable for Hufflepuff's quality, I am afraid that only Li Fei can do everything.
Cedric is good, but he also has many flaws of his own, and even occasionally questions his own character.
Other people may be more loyal, but they don't have the ability to lead others to progress together, so in Versace's opinion, judging from the astrological signs above Hogwarts, the only person who can represent the North Star is Li Fei himself.
Dumbledore seemed to think the same way, and he turned his head slightly to look in the direction where Li Fei was.
Sinista's story continues: "As the North Star dimmed, the constellation Cassiopeia, which we often use to assist in locating the North Star, began to brighten up in the vicinity of the North Star.
At the same time, Cygnus, another constellation that can be used to assist in locating the North Star, also had a tendency to change, but for some unknown reason, it stopped halfway.
The most terrible question comes, in the third grade course, I will explain in detail a constellation called [Orion].
A distinctly purple star is visible to the naked eye at the saber under Orion's belt, but the blurred dot is not a star, but a visible Orion nebula.
Today, the nebula at the Orion saber brightened a little as if in battle, and then dimmed. ”
Many young wizards above the third grade nodded their heads, they had already learned this knowledge in class, and even Professor Sinista had secretly said on more than one occasion that the sword at Orion's waist might be related to Gryffindor's longsword.
Dumbledore's face changed slightly, unlike Trelawney's "nonsense", Sinista's astronomical astrological divination was clearly supported by occultism, and the professor was actually a practical professor with real skills in his profession.
If that's the case...... Gryffindor's future sword-bearer may be in trouble?
But the sword bearer he chose was not ...... Dumbledore finally noticed the commotion, and suddenly turned his head to look at Harry Potter, who was already too tired to be afraid, and was already sitting on a round bench.
Frail Harry...... The dim North Star, the provocative and angry Venus, the bright fairy queen, the swan that stops halfway, the dim saber of Orion......
Dumbledore's eyes widened, ready to stop Professor Sinista from talking.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and Professor Sinista's words were already outspoken.
"It can be seen that Mars is a sign of cholera and change, and Venus is provoked by Polaris so it fights back, knocking Polaris to a faint shadow.
The queen of heaven has no intention of fighting back, but just burns herself to protect the North Star, and the swan is powerless and is blocked halfway; Polaris mobilizes Orion's sword to fight back, but is still defeated.
The biggest problem is that Venus is still strong, and no one cares about the cholera caused by Mars, and the final battle will depend on whether Venus can shelter the Earth from Mars. ”
There is no need to explain, many people have understood.
This kind of thing...... To say that big is indeed a big thing, after all, tonight is a turning point, and it suddenly deduces the future of the next few years.
It's actually very small, after all, who can say what the future will be.
Li Fei only felt that for a moment, Dumbledore's attitude towards him had undergone some subtle changes, and his vigilance had increased a lot.
In the past, Li Fei didn't even dare to perceive Dumbledore too much, after all, the strength of Old Deng's magic power was as hot as the scorching sun in Li Fei's spiritual perception, and watching that big fireball was as uncomfortable as staring at a light bulb.
But now, Li Fei, who has been strengthened by Agamotto, can already glance at Dumbledore a little, and it can be seen from his breathing, reactions, the tightness of his skin, and even the small details in his robes that Dumbledore is obviously a little more defensive of himself.
He meows, doesn't mean that Venus represents Lao Tzu, Mars represents Voldemort, and Harry Potter is the North Star;
After Polaris grew up, he was not convinced, and he was convinced, and even the sharpness of his Gryffindor friends was also convinced by himself, and finally Li Fei himself and Harry were inseparable, so that Voldemort secretly developed, and in the end, Li Fei had to solve Voldemort's problem.
Sounds pretty crazy from Dumbledore's point of view, but that's starting to guard against me? Old Deng, you really believe in prophecy.
This performance is like an adolescent who looks at the horoscope matching chart and asks the classroom which zodiac sign the girl is, and then finds a girl with the right zodiac sign and frantically invites others to dinner and gives gifts.
Trelawney, who was on the side, drank another glass of sherry and muttered "Harry Potter...... Azkaban ...... Apprehend. ”
Dumbledore was old, and his mentality was already old when he fought Voldemort.
As people get older, they tend to seek outward faith, and Dumbledore has always believed in true prophecy.
During the holidays, he asked his friend Nicol Lemay to divinate Li Fei's future, and the result was ......
Li Fei, who had been intervened in the timeline by the ancient mage, could not even explore the future of the time gem, Nicol Lemay tried to divinate with a mortal body, not only did he not receive the goods, but he was swallowed by Li Fei's terrible magic in the future, and his already aging body was like a leaky faucet, and his vitality began to leak out.
As a last resort, Nicol Lemay chose to directly absorb the strange power inside the Philosopher's Stone to replenish the gap in his body.
This method of "fishing with all his might" basically ruined the future of Nicol Lemay and his wife.
Although the old couple has said countless times that "we have lived too long, it's time to rest", but when they came to death, especially the two who had lived for so long, they couldn't face death calmly.
However, maybe they don't need to worry about it anymore this time, because by the time Nicol Lemay fills the gap in his own vitality, there is less than 0.1% of the mysterious power left inside the magical [Philosopher's Stone].
Nicol Lemay sadly departed, handing over the remaining Philosopher's Stone to Dumbledore.
In the old man's heart, there was a deep suspicion that this was something that Dumbledore had planned a long time ago? It's not pleasing to see that I've lived too long? Or have you been holding back your desire to fish with my Philosopher's Stone?
Don't mention Nicola Lemay, just talk about this opening ceremony.
Now that the two "magic sticks" of Hogwarts and the "big flicker" have appeared, now is a good opportunity for the "prophet" Li Fei to show his prestige.
Taking out the bronze gossip compass from the pendant, a smile rose on the corner of Li Fei's mouth.
It's all out of the way, a certain Li has to pretend to be forced!
