Chapter 36: Upcoming Flying Lessons

From the excitement of learning magic at the beginning of school to the painful coping with homework by biting a quill, the time spent on the little wizards is very short, and although in the first and second grades, there is even more free time left for the students than in class, but it can't stop the little ones who are just getting into magic from having too much fun.

At least more than half of the little wizards are crazy to make up their homework on the weekend, because Monday is Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration, which is really too difficult to learn the science of brain-burning, most of the time, some things force you to be anxious You can grit your teeth and get it done, but Transfiguration is different, this extremely abstract magic will not say it will not be, and it will not force people to death.

But this kind of thing has nothing to do with Harry, he has already done all his homework and wanders around with a flower pot for nothing, he took a few seeds from Professor Sprout, among them is a magical plant called walking grass, according to unreliable sources, walking around with a flower pot helps it sprout, and Harry has been wandering around for two hours after believing this nonsense.

After returning to the common room, a group of young wizards gathered in front of the notice board at the door of the lounge, looking at their excited appearance, probably some good news.

"What's going on? What's going on? ”

Harry squeezed through the gap in the crowd and saw a new notice that Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw would be taking flying lessons together starting Tuesday.

"Harry! You saw that too, right? ”

A red-faced Neville was waving at Harry on a soft chair by the fireplace, and the other two roommates in the dorm were there at the moment, when they saw Harry coming, they moved a vacant seat for him, and a lively discussion began.

"Rove, go on, the wizarding world is amazing, the wizard actually went out on a launch vehicle! And rockets! This name sounds very powerful, our planes are simply inferior, although there are also jet backpacks that can take people to the sky, but disposable high-energy batteries are tube products, if you don't go to be a soldier, you probably can't touch it in this life. ”

Compared to Harry, Justin Finch, who was born in a Muggle family, was always easily excited by the novelty of the wizarding world, and it was obvious that the matter of flying had poked him to the cool point, in the Muggle world, flying machines were quite common, and the Muggle-dotted technology tree was a bit too much to be honest.

"What's even more amazing is the Muggle plane, right, dozens of tons of iron lumps say that they go to the sky, and you don't have magic yet, this is an incredible thing."

Rove Scamander had no prejudice against Muggles, but was curious about the strange world next to them, and their family inevitably came into contact with ordinary creatures when studying magical creatures, and those that did not possess magical powers were also fascinating.

"So let me talk about the latest Halo 2000? The Lightwheel Company has made a big deal this time, their new design of the Lightwheel 2000 Intercontinental Missile completely revolutionizes the Quidditch competition mode, with dexterity, high speed, and ultra-durability, and the previous rockets always look stiff when cornering, while the new model of the missile completely avoids this shortcoming. ”

The mention of Quidditch fuels Rove to get excited, as a native wizard is no less passionate about Quidditch than Muggles and football.

"I can't wait to see this year's Quidditch World Cup, but the tactical changes brought about by the new missiles shouldn't be so fast, and the next Quidditch World Cup, which we host in England, will definitely be the best ever!"

"Four years from now, the new Quidditch tactics built on missiles will be absolutely wonderful!"

"That's nice, Rove, you're good at flying, aren't you?" As Rove moistened his mouth with lemon juice, Neville said with a little envy, "I've never ridden before, I'm already going to get into trouble when I'm standing on the ground, and I think it's right that grandma won't let me get close." ”

A somewhat frustrated Neville was looking forward to Tuesday's flying lesson, but he wasn't so confident that he would be able to ride on it.

"What are you afraid of, Neville, there will always be a first time."

Harry smiled and grabbed Neville's shoulder, patting him on the shoulder to cheer him up, "It's my first time with this, but I think I'm pretty good at flying." ”

"Huh?" Rove put down his glass and looked at Harry, "You're not.... Harry, did you ride on vacation? Which one did you buy? ”

Rove, who reacted instantly, guessed the answer, Harry grew up in a Muggle family, and if he had access to rockets and rockets, it would definitely be during the rest of his vacation after going to Diagon Alley.

"Well, I went to my grandfather's house during the holidays, and there is a big mountain near no one, since before I went to Hogwarts, magic was allowed by default, so it wouldn't be too much to fly in the sky, right, no one saw it anyway."

"I bought a Light Wheel 2000, and now I don't know if the professor will allow me to use it in school."

"I can participate in ..... in the first grade"

"Halo 2000!"

After Rove's surprised opening, the people sitting in other seats also cast curious glances, and suddenly, he lowered his voice and asked with some excitement: "You bought it, and you brought it?" ”

"Well, it's better to act if you are tempted, buy it if you like it."

"Two hundred and thirty Galleons...," Rove frowned a little sadly, "I've saved a little bit of pocket money in the past few years, but it's a pity." ”

"It's okay, won't there be a new model next year, if it's not enough to buy a new one, the old one will definitely be discounted."

"That's right." Rove, who was in a better mood, showed a mouthful of white teeth, "Then I'll buy it next year, I'll definitely save enough money next year, if it doesn't work, I'll go and pick up lightning feathers, one Thunderbird feather can be sold for twenty or thirty Galleons, how can it be enough to pick up two from the bird's nest, it's a big deal to be scolded by grandpa, I'll just hide behind grandma's back." ”

"Hiss~" Neville, who was stunned, gasped, "What kind of family are you?" Can you still keep a ptarmigan at home?! ”

"Ahaha, it's all my grandfather." Rove scratched his head a little embarrassed, he actually didn't like to attract attention, but what he heard was a good partner in the dormitory, and he said, "I can send you one for your birthday, so grandpa will agree, he doesn't like me to take things from home and resell them, but it's no problem to send them to friends." ”

Rove patted his chest and said arrogantly, these things are really not rare in his family, if it is about family background, maybe he will also loot (pick up rags) the entire Forbidden Forest fifty years Hagrid can compare with the Newt family.

Hagrid's few unicorn wool carpets that covered the floor, to be honest, even Newt of the Fantastic Beasts Master couldn't take them, and his zoo didn't have dozens or hundreds of unicorns, so the Forbidden Forest was blessed with so many powerful magical creatures.
