Chapter 191: The first closed beta is over

During the summer, Professor Sprout used the Masterless Wand to grow many plants.

These magical plants are generally much more agile in mind than other magical plants, so they are also difficult to care for.

Now, the centaurs and the Roller Blinds have been commissioned by Professor Sprout to help care for the wand plants.

Professor Flitwick naturally wanted Ralph to go to Professor Sprout to adopt a magical plant and help take care of it.

During the holidays, the professors had already discussed how to recover the mana crystals obtained from the game dungeons.

In addition to exchanging wand plants with those that have grown, Hogwarts has set up its own recycle bin.

The Recycle Bin is set up in a vaulted hall and has a professor on duty every day. This made the professors lament that Hogwarts was becoming more and more understaffed.

Professors will sort the Magic Crystals according to their attributes, volume, purity, etc., and each category has a series of redeemable rewards, such as wizard currency, magic plants, Hogwarts Benefit-Benefiting Store goods, and the like.

"Professor Sprout? I'll ask next time. ”

Ralph said, putting away the wisdom crystal.

Next, the five of them walked around.

After clearing a few more monsters, the four of Ralph reluctantly walked back under the leadership of Professor Flitwick.

"Do you think there's anything else that needs to be improved?"

On the way, Professor Flitwick asked them if this was one of his missions.

"Improvements?"

The four looked at each other suspiciously.

"Hmm."

Professor Flitwick nodded, looking at them expectantly.

The crowd thought about it for a moment.

"I think the hall is empty, and there should be some tables and chairs for students and professors to rest. Also, the environment is so dim that it's a little scary. ”

Daniel was the first to speak.

"Tables and chairs? This one really should work. Something scary about the environment? That's good, it means that our setup is working. ”

Professor Flitwick said happily, but also lied.

The hall is also a part of this space, and the aura of the outer gods of the starry sky can also affect here, which leads to the dimness of the environment.

In the hall, any light will gradually dim in all directions from its spontaneous point. It's kind of a curse for the students who came here.

The professors also arranged a lot here, so that these faint external aura would not affect the students. They also hope that students will be able to adapt to these breaths and thus prepare for their future plans.

"Since it's deliberately arranged, then we can strengthen it a little."

Claude said.

"How to strengthen?"

Professor Flitwick looked at him with interest.

"There is also a safe area in the hall, and after leaving the safe area, the wizard's vision will gradually be limited, darkened, and finally he will not be able to see anything at all."

Claude thought for a moment and said.

"That's a good idea."

Professor Flitwick touched his chin.

"Anything else?"

Professor Flitwick looked at Ralph and William, mildly, but looking at the posture, they didn't come up with a plan for improvement, they ......

"Is it open to all young wizards? If so, the hall is still too small. ”

William said.

"I feel like I can divide different areas for wizards of different grades, and each area offers monsters of different difficulty. When put together, some monsters are not worth mentioning at all for senior wizards. On the contrary, some monsters that are quite simple for senior wizards will make the junior wizards of the lower grades scramble. ”

Ralph followed up with William.

"Well, that's good."

Professor Flitwick replied with a smile.

Arriving at the safe zone, Professor Flitwick casually tossed the wood attribute magic crystal in his hand to one of the nearest plants.

The magic plant absorbed the magic crystals in a few moments, and a leaf fell from it and floated in front of Professor Flitwick.

The professor took the leaf, looked at it, and put it away, this leaf contained a magic - [Fire Spell], which just made up for the previous consumption.

"Professor, is this leaf so valuable?"

William asked, and the others cast curious glances at the professor as well.

In William's opinion, the magic crystallization of the wood attribute was already a very precious object, and it was only exchanged for a leaf.

"Above is a complete spell that can be unleashed with a little channeling of mana. Is it worth it, you say? ”

Professor Flitwick asked rhetorically.

"I don't know."

William thought about it, but didn't come up with a reason, and replied very shamelessly.

"It depends. Those who need it naturally feel valuable, and those who don't need it just feel indifferent. ”

Claude said.

Professor Flitwick nodded.

Ralph and the others also learned from Professor Flitwick, fed a few wood magic crystals to the surrounding plants, and also obtained leaves with enchantments.

The most common spells of the leaves they obtained were the Knockback Charm and the Iron Armor Charm, and it seems plausible that the wands of the predecessors of these trees may have belonged to the Aurors.

"Do you see those lamp grasses around you? To get out, just touch them with your wand. ”

Professor Flitwick said, pointing to a few lamp plants on the side.

Soon, several people were back in the hall.

Ralph: They were the first to go in, but they weren't the first to come out.

In the hall, there were already students coming out, and they were dividing into groups, telling their own experiences and experiences, their faces full of excitement.

Professor Flitwick and Ralph gestured to each other, then ran over to Professor McGonagall and struck up a conversation with them.

Ralph and the others were idle, and they began to chat, and they talked a little bit and a little bit more, and they really started talking.

Ralph pulled a piece of paper out of his clothes, tore it up, and turned it into four small mazza, which he placed behind the four of them.

Under the envious gaze of the other students, they sat down and began to continue chatting.

Professor McGonagall and Headmaster Dumbledore met and nodded. They had both served as Ralph's Transfiguration professors and were pleased with Ralph's performance at this point.

Seeing this, some of the senior wizards naturally did not want to let Ralph be in the limelight alone, or thought that they were a little stupid, so they only knew how to stand in a daze, and also conjured up a few chairs for themselves and their companions to sit on.

After a while, the last group of students, led by a professor, returned to the hall.

"Everyone, be quiet."

Seeing that everyone was together, Dumbledore walked to the middle, raised his hands, and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

The young wizards present quickly quieted down and looked at Dumbledore in unison, and the seated young wizards also stood up as a sign of respect.

"Thanks to everyone's attempts, we have collected a lot of valuable information, and I believe that it will not be long before the monster game will be open to everyone. I hope you can keep it a secret for us..."

Before Dumbledore could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the cheers of the young wizards present, who really liked this kind of copy of the actual combat, which allowed them to familiarize themselves with the magic they had learned.

The professors looked at each other with smiles on their faces. It is their greatest happiness that their results can be accepted by students.

Dumbledore also squeezed his brow at Grindelwald, who shook his head and smiled, just as happy.

Many of the ideas in the dungeon design came from Grindelwald, such as using the cycle of life and death to eliminate pollution, or having the little wizard intervene.

At first, neither Dumbledore nor the professors thought of asking the children to solve what they were supposed to solve.

But under Grindelwald's arguments, and the constant observation of the accumulated breath, they agreed to give it a try.

The idea of having young wizards intervene contains some of Grindelwald's old beliefs, which he once hoped that all wizards would have good magical abilities as soon as they graduated from school, so as to build an army of wizards.

He hadn't touched on the former yet, but he had already succeeded in building an army of wizards.

But with his failure, all the gains were lost.

Perhaps he didn't expect that the idea of the past seemed to have the dawn of realization now. Monster games, coupled with his Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, seem to beckon to the future.

Like the other professors at Hogwarts, he was happy to be recognized by the students. It was the first time he experienced the joy of being a teacher.

'My students, I will teach you well, so stay tuned. ’

Grindelwald smiled, looked at the children, and thought. He nodded to Ralph, who smiled back.

"It's just right to be young."

Looking at Ralph's blonde hair, Grindelwald seemed to see his former self and muttered in a low voice.

"Alright, it's finally my turn."

Dumbledore said with a smile, causing another burst of laughter from the young wizards present, but everyone was very embarrassed, and the laughter stopped.

Again, I hope you can keep it secret. This will affect to some extent whether or not you will be able to experience this experience again this semester. ”

Dumbledore looked at them rather seriously.

The little wizards were also shocked, they didn't care about it at first, and they thought that as soon as they went out, they would show off to their best friends, share their experiences, and let them know how heroic they were in the face of monsters.

Unfortunately, all of this was locked up by Headmaster Dumbledore's words. Everyone is also muttering, "Headmaster, why did you go back on your word?" ”

Although the voice was soft, Dumbledore heard it.

"I can not go back on my word. Listen to it first, don't be surprised. ”

Dumbledore said that the little wizards were a little embarrassed.

"Next, we're going to have a couple of tests, and the test subjects are still little wizards. As today, we still choose the little wizard in the Room of Need. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hanging hearts were put down, and it was good that there was still a chance.

"But the time is yet to be determined, and we don't know what time it is, so leave it to luck, kids!"

Dumbledore said apologetically, but the smile on his face was extra bright.

The little wizards were even more stunned, looking at their headmaster. Dumbledore was not afraid of this, and looked directly and gently at them.

As a last resort, some Gryffindors turned their eyes on their dean.

Professor McGonagall didn't think about it.

Seeing the students look at her one by one, Professor McGonagall thought that there was nothing more to say.

"Alright, that's all for today. Are you done with your experiments? What about homework? Have you prepared for tomorrow's class? Let's go back as soon as we still have time. ”

Professor McGonagall asked a few questions, making everyone's face stiffen.

Before they could speak, Professor McGonagall waved her hand, and they returned to their magic room.

"Headmaster, alas! Professor McGonagall. And they really are. ”

William was a little distressed.

"It's so annoying, what if they're playing games when we're in class?"

He complained.

The three of them nodded as well.

It's a great feeling to be able to use magic in a monster game. Watching monsters fall under their own magic gives them a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

There are also magic crystals left behind after the death of monsters, which also make them very happy, and they are much more interesting than wizard chess, high stones, and crackling explosion cards.

For a while, they were fascinated.

"Huh? Little Barty came to us. ”

A request to open the door was sent from the magic research room of the magic research team, that is, the team of the Ralph Four and Barty Jr.

A door appeared on the wall, and Barty Jr. pushed it through and walked out.

"What's wrong, Barty?"

Claude cheered up and asked, as the leader of the two groups, he still had to stand up.

"Filch approached us and asked us to test it out for him. What's wrong with you guys? ”

Little Barty glanced at the somewhat decadent four and asked curiously.

"It's fine. The headmaster won't let me say, next time we'll call you, and Senior Snape. ”

Claude said.

"Filch? Let's go now. Cheer up, record the data, record the data, don't get distracted. ”

Claude called out to the three people who were spread out on the couch.

Ralph sat up and nodded at Claude.

"Is Filch here?"

Ralph asked.

"Nope. He wanted to do it in the morning, but he didn't find you, so he came to me. You don't know where you're going in the afternoon. I'll let him know later. ”

Barty Jr. said helplessly.

A few people were also a little embarrassed.

"Then you sit down for a while, and I'll go find him."

Ralph said, summoning a cup of Alford from the cupboard and handing it to Barty.

"Well, thank you."

Barty Jr. thanked him.

"You're welcome."

Ralph responded with a smile, opened a door, and went out.

William looked at little Barty and sat up suddenly, opened his mouth to say something, but closed it again, and finally collapsed on the couch in decadence, covering his head.

"What's wrong with him?"

Little Barty asked, with a confused face.

"Maybe I want to share something with you, but I can't say it. Suffocated. ”

Claude explained, with a wave of his wand, parchment paper floated back and forth in the air, showing that the [Levitation Charm] was quite proficient.

"Found it."

Claude spoke, and Barty Jr. moved his head over as well, the last list of records that Filch had tested.
