0028 First-year freshmen, all on duty
"Hagrid, who taught you to grow that?" On the ground, Aini looked at the rows of long lines in front of him and felt a little congested, and the feeling of what he had gained before flashed away.
"Of course it's Hermione, the little wizards haven't been smarter than her, she knows everything, she's such a reliable child." Hagrid spared no sparing his compliments, and was clearly very pleased with the little witch.
After hearing Hermione's name, Aini decided not to dismantle the little witch's stage first, after all, not only a high-quality lamb, but also his own helper, he still had to save some face.
"It's true to start planting like this, but corn needs seedlings, and it's not like wheat, which grows more than 8 feet and can't be planted too densely."
"Eight feet!" Hagrid, an old farmer working part-time, suddenly realized his mistake, "I'll scatter them a little bigger, anyway, there is land here, and I can let them get enough sun." ”
Ani didn't plan to stop it when he heard this, planting corn to find the optimal spacing is to make efficient use of the land, there are so many wastelands in Hogwarts, and there is still the protection of magic, it would be better to spread a little wider.
"Thanks to you, Aini." Hagrid smiled appreciatively, apparently corn's 8-foot height gave Hagrid a better sense of it than wheat.
If you mess up the first planting, it's not a good experience.
At the same time, Hagrid also complained to himself, why did he have to come to a piece of land with so much wasteland nearby......
Wait, yes!
Hagrid patted his head excitedly and shook Aini excitedly.
"Aini, I thought of it! Why do you calculate the accounts so clearly? We can carve out a few more places, as long as we don't use up all the magic veins of a region, and keep some. ”
"It's like a seedling, we have such a big forbidden forest, we don't need to be careful."
Aini agrees with this approach, and in fact he has thought of it just now, but there is a problem that cannot be avoided.
The basement was built with a lot of rare materials, enough to solidify the effect of the Traceless Stretch Spell steadily, without the need for outside mana.
The real big consumer is the simulation of the environment.
Including but not limited to volcanoes, storms, glaciers, water currents, etc., it is necessary to have at least a medium-sized or higher mana node to withstand it.
It will extract nearby mana on its own, and it is a holistic extraction, which neither Aini nor Newt can precisely control.
It's like we can bite off the cake in our mouths, but we can't do it if we have to leave a piece of cake every centimeter after a bite, who can bite out a "dish" in one bite?
"Sounds like a good idea, but I'm not capable of doing that, maybe Headmaster Dumbledore will have a way." Aini knew that the Eight-Eyed Spiders were a huge hidden danger, and while they could bring a lot of money, they were too large to be limited.
However, there is no need to be hard steel with Hagrid now, Eni can naturally use Dumbledore to make Hagrid back down, but he doesn't want to break his friend's heart.
Next year, the Eight-Eyed Spider's attack on the centaurs will be revealed, allowing Hagrid to see their dangers.
The single-body strength of the eight-eyed giant spider is far from worthy of the rating of 5X-level magical creatures, they have no spell-like ability, and can only jump in front of wizards with high blood and thick defense.
However, in terms of danger, the Ministry of Magic rated them very accurately.
As mentioned before, the hatching of eight-eyed giant spiders is extremely dependent on mana, and once the number is out of control, when their demand exceeds the limit of the mana node they are in, it will cause irreversible damage to the local magic environment, and even cause the node to shrink and deplete.
In most parts of the world, the breeding of eight-eyed spiders is prohibited, and when wild communities are discovered, they are encircled and suppressed.
Although they are a constant source of wealth, people would rather destroy them than let their hometown be destroyed by "wealth" because of some moment's negligence.
It is not difficult for an adult wizard to hunt the eight-eyed giant spider, at least once he has mastered the illusion shift, it will be difficult to lose his life in front of these big guys.
Even if you are a young wizard, as long as you can use the knowledge you have learned flexibly, you can still escape their pursuit.
"Yes, flexibly. You must know that magic is never a rigid thing to be written by the script, and the 'biubiubiu~' shoot will only allow you to take down some fools and fools. Ani's words fell, and the laughter of the young wizards rang out all around.
The progress of the first-year Transfiguration class was ahead of expectations, and Aini asked Professor McGonagall to revise the timetable.
Today, all the freshmen of the four houses had an afternoon to experience their first outdoor Transfiguration class together in the green space outside the castle.
"Graduation may be too far away for you, but I want to tell you, when you become a real wizard, you don't have to sit back and relax." Arousing the interest of young wizards in class is Aini's forte.
Amid the screams of the little wizards, models of all kinds of dangerous magical beasts and dark creatures emerged from the grass one by one, and Red Hats, Grindellows, Voldemorts, Curled Wings, Trolls, Werewolves, etc., surrounded the little wizards.
In the panic of the young wizards, these strange-shaped creatures circled and stood in a line behind Aini.
The humanoid looks relatively normal, and the beast form, or those oddly shaped creatures, stand in a way that is hard to look at.
Staying on a standing position makes Voldemort look like a rag on a clothespole, and the Winged Demon needs to keep moving its wings to keep its balance.
The five-legged monster was even more comical, and several legs even fought over who would support the ground.
When the dust settled, Aini beckoned everyone to come closer, then pointed behind him and asked, "What creatures do you know here, and are there any people who are ready to share their knowledge with everyone?" Students who answer correctly will receive a mystery gift. ”
With more than a dozen little hands raised high, which child can resist the temptation of a large figure?
Aini glanced at it, most of the people who raised their hands were pure-blood and half-blood children, the protection of magical beasts class would not be on the elective list until the third year, and the professor of the Defence Against the Dark Arts class had long been reduced to a clown, unless Hermione was a student who read for pleasure, most of the Muggle-born young wizards had not yet been exposed to this knowledge.
This is also Dumbledore's original intention of recruiting Ani and Bill, to fill the gap in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class as much as possible.
"Michael Corner." He was one of Ani's favorite students, intelligent and studious, and even Severus mentioned him in casual conversations, considering that only a few students could get a positive opinion from him.
Michael stepped out of the crowd, and the kind brunette with brown eyes was one of the reasons why Ani liked him.
"This is Grindy Low." After greeting Aini, Michael pointed to the second position to the left, "They always like to lie in ambush behind aquatic weeds, catch passing prey, and sometimes attack divers. ”
"Very good, Ravenclaw plus 5 points. Please come back, Mr. Kona. Ani continued to name hermitage, but deliberately avoided Hermione, if the little witch described all the models like a cannon, there would be nothing else to do.
"Neville." After being called out to Aini, Neville hesitated, but walked to the front of the crowd and pointed to the stupid big man directly behind Aini.
"That's a troll, my grandma said they were 12 feet tall and powerful. However, the magic resistance is not outstanding, and the weakness of the head is obvious. ”
"Exactly, Gryffindor plus 5 points."
Red Hats, Werewolves, Vampires, Zombies, and other creatures were pointed out, and when only one arm was raised on the other side, Aini finally called her name in the little witch's resentful eyes.
As he expected, Hermione introduced the rest of the biological models in a commentative tone.
"Let's applaud Miss Granger for her wonderful explanation, even if I couldn't have said anything more exciting, Gryffindor plus 10 points."
Ani waved her wand, and the model behind her began to collapse and disappear, until only a small green figure remained.
It was a Grindy Lowe, with the iconic horns on its head, and its pale green body writhing deformously, looking a little disgusting.
"Grindellow, which is found in the lakes of Britain and Ireland, eats mainly fish, but doesn't mind eating other meats, which also attack humans."
As he spoke, Ani aimed his wand at Grindylow's mouth.
"As you can see, their teeth are very sharp, but the upper and lower jaws are not prominent, and the occlusal surface is small, so they do not hunt by biting. Sharp teeth are mainly used to immobilize prey and feed after successful hunting. ”
"When encountering such creatures with short and flat jaws and not known for biting, we must be more wary of their other abilities. Like Grindy Lowe, look at their claws. ”
Under Aini's manipulation, Grindillo's model began to grow larger.
Pointing his wand at its slender fingers, Aini continued, "Their slender fingers, but their claws are sharp, and they are Grindillo's primary means of attack. ”
"This little creature is not friendly to humans, and if a wizard passes in front of its lurking aquatic plants, it is almost 100% certain that they will be attacked. What should we do if we see it coming towards us? Everyone is free to speak. ”
As soon as Aini's voice fell, the little wizards chattered their opinions, many ideas that could be called blocked brain circuits made everyone laugh, and the little wizards simulated the battle with Grindy Low, Hermione tried to come up with her own opinions several times, but was interrupted by the sound of hip-hop on the side.
('⌒ ́メ) The smile fades away.
Before the young wizards' desire to perform exploded, Aini got the lesson back on track just in time.
A lot of weird speeches were really funny, but he didn't want his first outdoor class to be a funny lesson either.
Ani walked into the crowd and led everyone in a circle, there was never a professor who put the entire grade level together in class, and small classroom teaching was an inherent Hogwarts tradition.
This is also related to the educational environment in the UK, where there are about 20 to 30 students in a class in primary school, and in secondary school, children begin to take elective courses, even if it is a compulsory course with a large number of students, under the implementation of small class education, it will rarely exceed 20 students.
Looking at the 40 or so furry children gathered together, Aini said that there was no pressure, that is, he was two-thirds of a class in middle school, and there were 58 students in their class at the minimum.
