Chapter 181 Honor Duels Are Not Uncommon

The most famous one is "Tycho Brahe without a nose". He was a Danish nobleman and astronomer. His father was an important figure in the Danish royal court. However, he had a quarrel with another nobleman in 1566 and eventually lost part of his nose in the duel.

In more recent times, there is Abraham Lincoln, the president of the United States. In 1842, he was challenged to a duel by his political enemy Shearst. He worked hard to train his sword skills. In the end, he was saved because he didn't show up. From then on, he was cautious and no longer provoked anyone. He had the temper of a Ninja Turtle and became the president.

That is to say, from ancient times to the Middle Ages, and even in modern times, all conflicts involving family or personal honor in Europe had to be resolved by duels. Whoever dared not to fight would be despised by the world. How could he argue with others about his reputation?

Therefore, even though the rule of law in the magic world is getting closer to modern society, its laws do not prohibit wizard duels between individuals and families for honor.

Individual duels are simpler, and few people would do so, because the residents of the magic world now have a good sense of law.

However, honor duels involving families or groups are really powerless, and no one can prohibit them. If the weak group relies on the protection of the law to slander the strong group, and the Ministry of Magic or the Wizengamot dares not to give the strong group a fair judgment, then there is only one result, the wizard duel, and it is the kind of fight to the death.

If even this kind of duel is banned, rebellion and civil war will immediately appear in the magic world! In particular, the united forces of pure-blood families will definitely rebel, all because this Ministry of Magic can no longer protect their interests, especially the glory of their ancestors and the reputation of their families. Even pigs and dogs can jump on their heads and act wildly, but they can't have a fair fight?

Therefore, the Ministry of Magic and newspapers have never dared to name which family and which person did what without evidence. Of course, if this family or individual is both poor and weak, it is another matter, or this person has always been very good-tempered.

However, the good-tempered old Dumbledore wanted to challenge the ancient wizard duel on behalf of Hogwarts to organizations such as publishers, and even the Ministry of Magic could not prohibit it, provided that he first filed a lawsuit against the Wizengamot and then lost the case.

Not to mention that Old Dumbledore could overthrow two publishers, even overthrowing the Ministry of Magic was possible.

As a result, the Aurors found the witch who sent the dangerous letter in half a day and convicted her at the speed of light, one was sentenced to 10,000 gold galleons, and the other was to sweep Diagon Alley for two months. Yes, this is already torture in the wizarding world. Could she be locked up in Azkaban for such a small matter?

As for Rita Skeeter, as a slanderer, she was sentenced to 50,000 gold galleons. She wanted to appeal to the Wizengamot and also wanted to plead with the Hogwarts Board of Directors, but Chen Bin had revealed that she was an illegal Animagus. Now she was doomed to go bankrupt, and there was a great chance that she would be locked up in Azkaban, because Chen Bin linked many bizarre deaths of Muggles to beetles.

This shit dish made her a dangerous person and she could not be released on bail. These cases must have insufficient evidence in the end, but this period of time has made this gossipy woman feel like she is dying, exhausted physically and mentally, and she had to watch her assets being forcibly auctioned off as compensation for Hermione after losing her job.

Although Hermione and Chen Bin avoided talking about this, such a big move was a good hint for Hermione not to dwell on the change in this line.

Everything returned to normal, and life was still like this. Chen Bin still did morning exercises, breakfast, practiced Lao Deng's transformation experience, lunch, played sandbags, dinner, guided the club, took a bath, kissed the well-behaved and sensible little Kate, etc.

Unknowingly, Easter was over.

During this holiday, Anastasia took a rare long vacation to return to Crimea, so Chen Bin had to replace her to patrol the activity room order.

When she really came back, Chen Bin saw that her face was darker than Bao Daren every day, almost like a powder keg that could be ignited at any time. She refused to tell the reason, so Chen Bin had to ask for help from her cousin "Dmitri", who wrote to the head of the clan.

In the end, when the result was delivered to Chen Bin, he laughed shamelessly.

I don't know if this violent girl was provoked by Chen Bin, she followed the family's arrangement to go back for a blind date during the holiday.

This Bao Gong face is the result - screwed up.

She failed in the blind date, one is that she disliked the other party's poverty, one is that she disliked the other party's ugly appearance, and one is that she disliked the other party's male chauvinism...

Chen Bin said hehe!

Her cousin is getting better and better in China, and a large number of European wizards in companies have introduced their daughters to him, and the newly employed female graduates are also constantly flirting with him. It's a pity that he likes the busyness of this position. He flies every day to invite squibs to join, buy start-up companies and buy shares in various places. On the surface, he is a European golden collar executive, but secretly he is a double agent of China and the Nama family.

In order to vent the failure of the blind date, the violent cousin took the initiative to take on some practical training work, and abused a group of students to cry for their parents. From then on, the students knew that this beautiful administrator who had been a nobody for more than two years was actually a powerful fighter.

Chen Bin didn't know if she was a big shot, but this girl joined the local Auror organization after graduation and worked there until she joined the Nama family. It was absolutely comfortable to bully students.

On the other hand, since Hermione no longer had to worry about Rita Skeeter, she was completely devoted to the crazy practice of the three life-saving subjects, and she also performed brilliantly in the mock battles every day. She even defeated Professor Sprout in the last week of May, which shocked the whole school.

Pomona Sprout is the professor of Herbology. Even though she seems to have little presence, she is the dean of Hufflepuff College and a serious boss-level fighter.

Chen Bin was also shocked when he played back their battle process.

Hermione, who comes from a pure Muggle family, has actually improved her magic power in the middle of fourth grade in the past six months to a level very close to that of an adult wizard. According to common sense, the descendants of pure Muggles usually have 10-25% weaker magic than pure-blood families. In other words, if there were no accidents, Hermione would have already reached the upper limit of her bloodline and made more than one bloodline breakthrough in the past six months.

Not only her magic power, but also her combat skills have improved dramatically, and she also led a team of more than thirty people to separate and surround two professors. Then, she recited the leg-locking spell in her mouth, shot the spell in her hand and stopped immediately, and at the same time interfered with Professor Sprout's sense of danger. As a result, Professor Sprout blocked the curse and stopped, but was restrained by the leg-locking curse.

Under normal circumstances, ten Hermiones would not be able to hit one of Sprout's hands, so it was just Sprout's carelessness in the vegetable abuse activity. However, she did not expect that three consecutive intervention spells would be shot from Hermione's hands, leaving her to focus on removing a series of small obstacle spells. She did not expect that a tabby cat would actually throw away her wand.

This cat is not Crookshanks, but a creature conjured by Hermione using the Transfiguration Spell. A truly magical cat does not know how to bypass the wizard's transparent shield. Most of Hermione's magic power was also used in this tabby cat, so she could only shoot some small intervention magic.

In the end, she took Professor Sprout's pseudo-curse wand and shot a beam of green light to kill her. Yes, this can be considered as her defeating a dean-level figure with her own hands. Who said that in the new rules, only the green light emitted by the pseudo-curse wand is considered a life-killing curse.

Many people were not convinced that Hermione had defeated Dean Sprout by relying on a loophole in the rules, but the Dean also admitted that he had lost. Moreover, in the other two simulated battles, even if Hermione led even the weakest partners, she could completely destroy the opponents in the cross-level melee. She could also assist the teacher in keeping at least 60% of the students alive in the classroom assault defense battle. Go to a safe spot.

Now, although Hermione was not the strongest fighter among the students, her survival rate and victory rate were the highest in the school. Even George and Fred had to admit defeat.

Some people say that she uses potions several times more than normal students, but even if others use potions several times more than her, they still don't achieve this result. She is not the only student who buys black market potions and herbs from the Weasley brothers. As long as they are the top fifty students in the school, they also buy some. Even some scumbag students can only be killed without using a large amount of potions. share.

Therefore, Hogwarts turns a blind eye to non-lethal potions and non-dark magic potions, mainly because Lao Deng hopes that they can use up all their learned combat power in real battles. Therefore, as long as there are no side effects of drugs, their use is not prohibited.

In late May, at nine o'clock one night, Bagman announced the third project on the Quidditch pitch. The court is no longer flat and smooth, but has been replaced by numerous low walls, forming an intricate maze.

The rules of the third event are very simple. Whoever gets the trophy placed in the center of the maze first will be the champion. The original rule was that getting the trophy was a perfect score, but Lao Deng suggested to the other four referees to change this rule.

Everyone thought there was no difference between the two, so they passed it. Only Chen Bin knew that this change was to facilitate the fake Moody to let Kate and Harry touch the trophy at the same time. Otherwise, even if they both win the trophy at the same time, Catalina will still be in first place, and the fake Moody's argument for being a double champion will not stand.

"There will be many obstacles here." Bagman, who was about to go bankrupt, lost his original cheerfulness and said weakly: "Hagrid provided a lot of animals... and some spells that must be lifted... and things like that, you guys Got it. Also, the Warriors who lead in scoring enter the maze first.”

After a pause, Bagman smiled at Harry and Caterina and said, "So, the order of entry is Miss Naama, Harry, Mr. Krum, and finally Miss Delacour. But you all have to work hard to succeed." , it depends on your ability to overcome obstacles, it should be fun, right?”

After Harry heard this rule, he began to immerse himself in training. Even after the club activities, he even started sparring with Hermione and Ron in the common room.
