Chapter 44: Hermione's Choice (Second Update, Seeking Recommendation and Collecting Investment)
"It's alright, Ms. Granger. This is your own game crystal, and you can try them out with Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley right now. Once you've played both games, you'll take which one you like.
If you don't like it, forget it. The professor won't force you. ”
Rick looked at the trio with a smile on his face, curious to see what would happen to the trio playing games together.
"Professor, this, is this okay? We didn't bring Pandora ......"
Seeing that Professor Graves had already said this, Hermione was embarrassed to refuse again, in fact, deep down she also longed for this gift.
Human beings are a collection of contradictions of complex emotions, and now Hermione expresses this emotional contradiction vividly and exquisitely.
There were two villains living in her mind, one of them said that this was what I got from the exam, and it was a gift from my idol, and it was necessary; One says you can't play games, it's useless to ask for it, and it will delay your academic performance.
......
"Use mine, the three of you will play with me, and there are plot NPCs in the game world who will take you through the beginner's tutorial. You don't have to be afraid that you won't play. ”
As Rick spoke, he picked up the wand on the table again and waved it behind him a few times, and Pandora 2.0, which had been on the bedside table earlier, flew towards the table between them.
"Okay, so let's start with this red-and-white game."
This Hermione had seen the game crystal in red and white packaging, and Hermione had a deep image, wasn't this the one in Malfoy's hand.
It was originally called Pokémon Here.
Intrigued by what kind of game Professor Graves gave Malfoy as a game crystal, Hermione decided to choose the red and white balls.
"Well, it's a 'dream'. You take it first, and then follow Pandora's instructions, start Pandora, open the crystal slot, and put the game crystal in it. Finally, log in silently, and you will be directly into the game. If you want to quit, you can log out silently. ”
Rick placed the star-adorned blue nightcap in front of Hermione and the others, motioning for them to bring the console's peripheral "Dream" on their heads first.
"Okay, Professor Graves."
After listening to Rick's prompt, the three nodded in agreement, and Harry picked up the three nightcaps, keeping one for himself and handing the remaining two to Hermione and Ron.
After putting on the nightcap, Hermione carefully opened the shell containing the game crystal of "Pokémon is Here", looking at the pitch-black, Jensen polyhedron game crystal inside, Hermione did not dare to take him out at the first time.
She didn't know if it would cause damage to it if she took it out by hand like this.
Hesitating, she looked up at Professor Graves. But seeing Professor Graves nodding at her, Hermione mustered up the courage to pinch the game crystal with her fingers.
Then, very skillfully, he pressed the start button of Pandora with the index finger of his other hand. After the crystal groove was revealed, she carefully put the game crystal in her hand.
Harry and Ron were now stunned by Hermione's skill, and they couldn't understand how Professor Graves had just said it. How could Hermione be so skilled?
Even Ron, who had read the manual in the morning, was muttering in his heart, if he operated it himself, would Hermione be so proficient?!
The two didn't know that Hermione said that she didn't dare to be interested in games, and if she didn't play games, Pandora would just become a souvenir for herself in the cupboard.
But actually...
After breakfast, she returned to the dormitory early because she didn't have game crystals, and sat on the bed very sadly.
Unconsciously took out the card that Rick had given him from her pocket, and she looked at the message on the card, and her sad mood improved a lot. So he took out Pandora's manual and studied Pandora. After ten minutes of fumbling, Hermione managed to learn how to use Pandora.
......
After looking around and nodding to Harry and Ron in confirmation, Hermione silently said "Login!" in her heart under Rick's encouraging eyes, "Login!" ”
Seeing that Hermione had entered the game, Harry and Ron also silently said "Login." ”
Seeing that the three of them had entered "Pokémon Here", Rick chuckled. It seems to remember the time when he played with Alice and Cod many years ago.
Shaking his head and letting his mind return to reality, Rick picked up the Hogwarts History again.
Two hours later, looking at the three of them after waking up again, Rick handed each of them a glass of hot milk.
"Thank you, Professor Graves."
"Ms. Granger, have you decided which game crystal to choose?"
Tasting the hot milk, Hermione still had a look on her face that she couldn't get enough of the plot of the game just now.
After hearing Rick's inquiry, she took out the Witcher game crystal from Pandora and glanced at Pokémon Here on the table.
'Which one should you choose?' Pokémon Here is a game that captures and raises magical creatures and is a game that allows me to fully understand the magical creatures in the wizarding world; And 'The Witcher'......'
Hermione had a hundred million points tangled.
Before she played the game, she never expected that she would be entangled in this way because of the two games.
Glancing at Harry and Ron beside her, Hermione wanted some attention from their two friends. Hermione, as a girl with excellent studies, an independent personality, and a strong personality, made her own decisions most of the time, but this time she rarely looked at her two companions.
"You decide. After all, it's a gift from the professor. ”
Seeing Hermione looking at him, Harry hurriedly spoke. While he wished Hermione would choose Pokémon Here, he didn't want Hermione to change her mind because of herself.
Ron didn't speak, he simply shook his head. For him, no matter which game crystal Hermione chosen, he thought it was good. As an English pure-blood wizard, even if the father loves Muggle world items.
In a sense, this is Ron's first experience of the joy of virtual gaming.
Anyway, he was happy with Hermione's choice, so he chose to lie down and not participate in Hermione's decision.
"Professor Graves, then I'll choose The Witcher!"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, Professor!"
Hermione nodded vigorously, her long blonde hair shaggling like a golden lion.
"Great choice, this is a new game that my Spot Games Studio hasn't released this year. Aside from company insiders, you're the first to get your hands on The Witcher game crystals. Looking forward to playing GWENT with you. ”
Seeing Hermione's choice of "The Witcher", Rick nodded in satisfaction, the corners of his mouth slightly curled. In Hermione's eyes, Rick's already androgynous beauty became even more charming.
