Chapter 94 Hogsmeade

Ordinary people in secular factories don’t know what the purpose of that layer of plant fiber is. They just put it into the machine according to the drawings, press it, and then cut it. The finished product is shipped to the UK for Isabel to enchant the protective gear.

After Chen Bin explained the characteristics of the protective gear, he finally explained the differences between the three competition systems to the professors.

1. Extracurricular cross-level melee, which is to randomly form seven contestants of different grades to fight within the designated range of the castle. The first student to enter the designated safe position is the winner (except for students who died in battle).

2. Classroom assault defense battle, which is to suddenly conduct an evacuation drill with the teaching professor at a scheduled time. Contestants need to assist the teaching professor to resist the invaders, and win by knocking down all the invaders or escorting a specified proportion of students to a safe point.

3. Infinite good and evil melee, which is for professors or senior students to pretend to be evil invaders and attack participating students throughout Hogwarts.

Victory conditions: Knock down all invaders to be successful; or the number of people who reach a safe place reaches more than 90%.

Failure conditions: The number of deaths reaches 40%.

As Chen Bin carefully explained the competition system and various safety matters, the professors also became sharpened, as if they could abuse the students at any moment. They must have fantasized about disobedient students, even Madam Pomfrey was no exception.

Chen Bin also considerately made a batch of student bullets for Muggles, specifically for Filch to show his power.

After a round of discussion among the faculty and staff, a lot of details and battle venues were perfected. They can also see that the focus of the competition is still safe transfer, whether non-combatants or militants should participate.

For example, students who like the three subjects of life-saving may regard Auror as their ideal career, so they will be combatants; students who don’t like fighting or have poor skills will be auxiliary retreat personnel; students who can’t do anything will of course be led to escape personnel.

Professors and senior students can also act as invaders. In addition to using spells approved by the school, any black magic is also simulated by the pseudo-spell wands used exclusively by villains.

For example, the lighting spell shot by the pseudo-spell wand will be a green beam, and several common small life spells will become powerful black magic phantoms. Once hit by such phantoms, the goggles will show "killed, lying down", and the protective gear on the whole body will turn white, making it impossible for the contestants to quibble.

Chen Bin's game is a magical version of the War Game, inspired by the fact that the members of the "Martial Arts Society" were in great pain when training the riot formation, but were excited when they were killing the basilisk.

The meeting lasted for four hours, and even the order of dinner was left to Filch and a group of ghosts to maintain. In the end, the game was scheduled to be held regularly after the Christmas holiday. It was claimed that it would take time to produce protective gear and install monitoring equipment in each channel. In fact, it would only be held after Sirius was rescued.

Black, who had been imprisoned for twelve years, might be mentally ill, and it was impossible for the Black family not to understand the Unforgivable Curse.

Old Dumbledore was worried that Sirius would really play out if he regarded the invaders as real Death Eaters.

The next morning, when Dumbledore announced that the competition would be held, the students at the four long tables cheered.

After school, a large number of students participated in after-school activities related to the three life-saving subjects, and the "Martial Arts Society" became the designated explanation place for the rules of the competition, popularizing the rules of the game for students, and even demonstrating how to play on the spot.

Basically, students also have a hero complex, and no one wants to play the role of a weak person (the evacuee who is led), because the rules limit evacuees to only use armor spells and escape-type magic, and violators will be sentenced to death.

To be a fighter or assistant, you must meet the strength requirements of each grade, and the judges are the four deans.

Therefore, now as long as the students finish their homework, they basically all squeeze into combat-related practical activities and practice hard.

On the eve of visiting Hogsmeade, Chen Bin had just finished playing a romantic comedy, which moved the three girls to tears but raised their mouths, which made Chen Bin and Ron feel unspeakably weird.

However, Harry looked depressed and did not pay attention to the plot, which made Ginny a little depressed.

"Are you worried? See if we can solve it?" The first person to discover that something was wrong with Harry was not Chen Bin, but the more thoughtful Katerina.

Harry looked at Chen Bin, and then replied to Katerina: "My uncle and aunt refused to sign the visiting application form."

As soon as he finished speaking, the five people looked at Chen Bin at the same time, hoping that he could solve the problem.

Chen Bin raised his hands in surrender. "Even Professor McGonagall and the headmaster can't solve this problem, at least this year."

Harry was immediately disappointed when he heard this, and he also knew that no one could solve this problem.

Ginny's eyes lit up when she heard it. "Professor Nama, do you mean that you can help Harry solve the signature for next year?"

Her brain circuit is indeed different from others, because she is only in the second year now, and she wants to go to Hogsmeade with Harry just next year.

When Harry heard this hint, a glimmer of light rose in his silent heart.

"You won't think of anything illegal, right?" Hermione seemed to still remember Chen Bin's disruptive behavior in the first year.

"Using magic against Muggles will get you wanted by the Ministry of Magic." Ron may have been influenced by Percy and his father, and he also knows a lot about the laws of the magic world.

Chen Bin rolled his eyes at the two of them and said ostentatiously: "I am still a small rich man in the Muggle world, and it is easy to deal with such small people. I just need to meet them once during the summer vacation."

"Really?" The four of them also looked at Katerina with doubtful eyes, waiting for her confirmation. From this, it can be seen that Chen Bin has no integrity in small matters.

Katerina smiled and did not answer. Chen Bin doesn't want to show off his wealth, so the smart Katerina naturally won't talk too much.

"Believe it or not, we'll know the result next year." Chen Bin planned to use money to knock the Dursleys out. Of course, this would only happen after Harry overheard Fudge talking about Sirius, that is, during the summer vacation of the next year.

Harry's uncle was just a salaryman, and it was easy to use money to overwhelm, intimidate or envy him. Thinking about the financial tycoon Ross paying a special visit to any working class, who wouldn’t be shocked? Even if you don't ask for anything from him, you are still afraid of being tortured to death.

Harry believed that Chen Bin had this ability, but he could not drink water from afar, so he could only leave the dormitory disappointed.

The next day, Harry was still prohibited from attending the event by Professor McGonagall, so he could only stay and have a heart-to-heart talk with Lupine!

A large group of students formed a long and disorderly queue, walking side by side with a few friends, and Chen Bin was one of them.

He doesn't have to be on duty today and has made an appointment with Katerina to go shopping together. The little girl was so happy that she didn't sleep well all night, waiting for his appearance with slight dark circles under her eyes.

"Where should we visit first?" Caitlina came to this pure wizard village for the first time, and she felt fresh looking at it all.

Chen Bin first looked at where there were the least people, and then saw the Fengya Wizard Clothing Store. Although he sighed in his heart, he smiled on his face and said, "Let's buy some clothes together while there are few people."

He didn't tolerate her refusal and walked directly into the clothing store.

This is a large chain of wizarding clothing stores with branches in London and Paris.

Students can buy socks of all kinds and weird colors here, and adult wizards can also buy high-end, luxurious, exquisite or simple fashionable clothes, you can buy everything you want. Whether it is the most fashionable wizard style designed in France, or the nostalgic and stable style of England, we can even tailor-make it for you.

Katerina knew that Chen Bin's family was very wealthy, and even knew that a large part of the wealth was created by Chen Bin himself. However, she never planned to spend Chen Bin's money. She only used the pocket money given by Isabel for daily consumption, and also saved a lot of surplus.

Chen Bin doesn't have the habit of being a domineering president, and he certainly won't have the stupid idea of ​​taking over the entire store.

He knew that Caitlina liked to be with him, but was also afraid of the status gap between them, otherwise she wouldn't have studied so hard to get closer. Therefore, whether to buy something or not is secondary. The most important thing is to enjoy the atmosphere of shopping together. It is mentally retarded to insist on showing off wealth.

Therefore, after trying them on in the store for nearly an hour, Chen Bin just bought her a scarf, and she also bought a pair of gloves for Chen Bin, both of which were also ordinary student styles.

Afterwards, the two went to Honeydukes Candy Store and bought many flavors of candies, mainly because Chen Bin planned to use the candies as student prizes. The two were still feeding each other here, blinding the titanium alloy dogs of passing students.

Chen Bin also came to Hogsmeade for the first time, but he had prepared a strategy before the date, and even prepared a map.

Only wizards can enter this village. Its scale can be said to be very small. If you don’t go shopping anywhere, you can walk across the main street in less than five minutes. Moreover, the village is also built along a main road, and 80% of the shops are also Located on both sides of the main road.

The terminus of the Hogwarts Express is not here, but the station is called Hogsmeade Station.

This platform was built next to a large lake, with a road extending along the lake leading to Hogwarts Castle, and on the other side in the opposite direction leading to Hogsmeade Village.

The village has deliberately preserved its ancient style and is full of thatched-roofed cottages and shops. During the holidays, the trees in the village are hung with enchanted candles.

Students and teachers at Hogwarts like to come to Hogsmeade Village, including principals Dumbledore and Hagrid who often come here.

"Legend has it that Hogsmeade was built at the same time as Hogwarts, and the man who built it was called Hengist of Woodcroft. He was a man who came to settle here to escape the persecution of Muggles. The wizard. According to the book "Magic Historical Relics" in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry library, Hogsmeade was also the headquarters of the Goblin Rebellion in 1612. "

Chen Bin recited the background information in the guide and sat in Mrs. Paddy's Teahouse at the end of the village, drinking afternoon tea with Katerina.

This teahouse is a little small and cramped, and everything inside is decorated with tacky lace, even the small round tables. However, it is a dating spot for students, including fifth-grade Harry and his goddess Qiu Zhang in the original book. here.
