A figure stood in the doorway, leaning on a long cane and wrapped in a black traveling cloak.

"Sting!" A fork of lightning streaked across the ceiling, illuminating the somewhat dimly lit auditorium as if it were day.

"Ahh Some timid girls screamed directly, and what appeared in front of everyone was a hideous and terrifying face.

There was not a single piece of intact skin, every inch seemed to have been wounded, the mouth was like a large crooked mouth, and the place where the nose should have been bulging was missing, and a large piece was missing.

And the most terrifying thing about this man is his eyes, one of his eyes is small, black, shiny;

The other eye is large and a vivid bright blue.

The blue eye moved unblinking, up and down, left and right, completely unrelated to the normal eye.

Zhang Xiao's eyes also glowed with a different kind of brilliance, can the magic eye see through the compound decoction?

The answer is that maybe, if the user doesn't do more magic disguise.

During the experiment, he could easily see through the little wizard's disguise, but he asked Sirius to use the polyjuice decoction according to his habits, but he couldn't see through it.

On the one hand, his own magic eye cultivation is not yet at home, and on the other hand, he has some small habits of powerful wizards.

For example, Sirius, because he had made a map of living spots, he would subconsciously cast a series of small magic to cover up his traces and prevent detection such as human trace spells.

I don't know what magic works, but I can't see anything with my eyes anyway.

Just as Zhang Xiao was looking at Moody carefully, Moody's blue magic eye suddenly turned rapidly, locking on to Zhang Xiao at an extremely fast speed.

？？

Moody's face suddenly turned to his own, and then he gave a 'terrifying' smile, apparently recognizing the teammate who had fought together in the church, and greeted him in a friendly manner.

Only. Weird and scary.

The vibration in Zhang Xiao's heart is indescribable, this is the first time that the other party has noticed it!

Is MONOCULUS so powerful? No, Zhang Xiao lowered her eyes, perhaps it was intuition, an instinctive reaction to be observed.

But apart from smiling at himself, Moody didn't do anything else, but waved his hand at the rostrum and shouted in a rough voice:

"Aha! Dumbledore, the damn weather, it's terrible, it took me a whole hour to walk from Hogsmeade! ”

Dumbledore smiled as well, and he walked over quickly, holding out a hand and shaking Moody's hand.

The little wizards all noticed the 'weird' hand, which was as scarred as his face.

The two shook hands, and then whispered something, Dumbledore seemed to ask something, Moody smiled and shook his head, and replied in a low voice.

Dumbledore nodded, motioning for the man to sit in an empty seat to his right.

The little wizards didn't dare to breathe, and watched as the strange man, who seemed to be the new professor, sat down, greeted McGonagall and the others, and said something to Snape.

Harry noticed that Snape's face was dark and frightening, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a stiff smile.

He was suddenly happy, and he was so happy to see that Snape was not happy!

By the way, I seem to know him, in church! This weirdo has blocked a lot of Death Eaters, and he's Dumbledore!

It seems to be called. What's it called?

Harry was even more excited, this was a real master, and he was definitely qualified to be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.

Professor McGonagall tapped his wand and tapped the empty plate, which had been removed suddenly filled with food again, and Moody shook his head, shook his long gray hair from his face, and pulled over a plate of sausages, raised it to his mutilated nose and sniffed it.

He took a knife from his pocket, poked it through one end of a sausage, and ate it. His normal eyes were staring at the sausage, but the blue eye still kept rolling around in its sockets, looking at the auditorium and his classmates.

"Allow me to introduce our new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher," Dumbledore happily broke the silence, "Professor Moody. ”

Normally, when a new teacher arrives, everyone applauds, but now there is no teacher or student applauding except for Dumbledore and Hagrid.

Dumbledore and Hagrid slapped their hands a few times, and when they noticed that the applause was lonely echoing in the silent Great Hall, they lowered their hands in amusement.

The others seemed stunned by Moody's strange appearance and stared at him intently.

"Moody! Mad-Eye Moody! ”

Malfoy, beside him, whispered in horror:

"He's the best Auror ever! It is said that he captured half of Azkaban. ”

Zhang Xiao nodded: "Draco, think about it from another angle, we finally have a more competent Defense Against the Dark Arts professor again, don't we?" ”

Malfoy was immediately stunned, and he thought about it with a frown, as if that was indeed the case.

After Professor Lupin left, everyone was pessimistic that the Defence Against the Dark Arts class would not be good, and that if there was another Lockhart Chilow or the like, this class would be a death sentence.

Especially during this period of the Dark Lord's comeback, no one would think that the Defence Against the Dark Arts class was irrelevant, on the contrary, they were frantically chasing Neville and the Dueling Club at the end of last semester, precisely because of the sense of crisis.

Stimulated by a sense of crisis, they desperately want to become stronger, but unfortunately, very few can persevere.

Moody's seemed indifferent to the lukewarm reaction. Ignoring the large jar of pumpkin juice in front of him, he reached into his travel cloak, pulled out a curved wine bottle, and took a large sip. The cloak he had dragged on the floor was pulled up a few inches as he raised his arm to drink, and Harry saw a few inches of carved wooden prosthetic legs peeking out from under the table, and a claw-shaped foot underneath.

Dumbledore cleared his throat and decided to continue with the conversation.

"I just talked about where it came from, oh yes. As I said earlier. ”

He smiled and looked at the many students in front of him and said—the students were still staring blankly at Mad-Eye Moody:

"There won't be any Quidditch events this school year (which has finally brought the attention back of the young wizards),

Because in the coming months, we will be very honored to host a wonderful event that has not been held for more than a century.

And the event will no longer be limited to the old format"

He looked at the ignorant little wizard and smiled mysteriously:

"That's what was extended by the Final Three Cup. Encompassing most of the world, the Super Goblet of Fire! ”
