Chapter 2803 Red Hunger (5)

Snape assigned the sixth grade a three-foot-long paper documenting the role of armadillo bile in sobering potions. The deadline happened to be the same day as the Celestial Ball, and "everyone" complained.

Grades 1, 2, 3 and 4 do not participate in the celestial dance. Grade 7 students are busy with employment and internship issues, and grade 5 students are busy preparing for the OLS exam and employment consultation, which is related to how many certificates they need to obtain in the OLS exam.

Snape, who had just become the dean, didn't know that he wanted to do career consulting. As the "youngest" professor and dean in the history of Hogwarts, he didn't realize this. It was Pomona who reminded him,

He just remembered.

This angered him so much that he himself had done career counseling in fifth grade, but it was quickly replaced by the grandiose ideal of following the Dark Lord.

He is in a bad mood, so no one wants to get over it. If someone doesn't hand in their homework on time... it doesn't matter. Due to employment issues, not everyone needs to get a certificate for the Potions NEWTS exam, and not everyone will.

I continued to take potions classes after sixth grade, so only a small number of people were affected.

What really makes him hateful is that he and Filch catch students who violate school rules. The trophies in the trophy room have been wiped by the students and are shiny. There is no need to continue to wipe them.

Along the tributary of the Piyu River, after bypassing the mines, there is a village called Irondale, probably in the swamp. The original founders here were fairies who were mining in the surrounding area. However, as the mineral veins dried up, the original residents

They all left, and the village was replaced by newly moved wizards.

The goblins built a canal in the village to facilitate their transportation of ore and daily supplies. Due to years of making fires and forging iron, there was no grass growing near the village. However, the place was rich in ironware, and Hagrid's task was to let the students bring back the horseshoes he ordered.

The time for changing horseshoes is generally not fixed. After it snows, the carriage to Hogsmeade will be unusable due to the snow. During this time, both horses and people are free. Horseshoes are also a gift that a few horsemen will accept, especially

Those horsemen who are responsible for patrolling the border often have their hooves worn out from traveling long distances. At this time, they usually give some fragrant brocade leaves and other plants they collected in the Forbidden Forest in exchange. After all, even the bad-tempered neighbors are still neighbors.

.

The time when these people who were sentenced to solitary went to Irondale happened to be a Hogsmeade day. They could go by boat, but they had to go before the river froze. In fact, after going to Hogsmeade too many times, it was like that, just tossing and turning.

For a few shops, it is still acceptable for people to go to other places and see different customs and customs, as long as there is no trouble.

The giants who had wars with humans in history have disappeared, but there are many trolls. They have huge appetites and will eat any kind of meat. They are not completely devoid of intelligence. At least they know that low temperature can extend the shelf life of food.

Then a group of mountain troll bandit gangs will steal and rob before entering winter, and no one knows which village they will attack.

Medieval castles would serve as shelters during wars, sheltering villagers from nearby villages. Strong walls could play a defensive role that wooden houses could not achieve.

What they have to face is not wind and rain, but siege engines, battering rams and other devastating siege tools. Trolls do not have such wisdom. Like primitive people, they use maces as weapons.

When a person attempts to kill another person, it doesn't make much difference whether he is holding a mace or a sword. The "stick" in the troll's hand is similar to a wooden stake. Using a sword to chop is worse than using an axe.

What's more, the force they generate after being rounded is not inferior to that of a battering ram, so there is no point in using a shield to block it.

Skills can make up for the gap in strength to a certain extent, but if the gap is too great, skills will not be enough to reverse the gap.

It is useless to "influence" them through speeches. The trolls' intelligence cannot understand what people are saying. They only know that they are hungry, and they have to eat when they are hungry. Therefore, trolls are a very scary thing for little wizards.

Creatures, they often appear in children's bedtime stories.

Since they were going by boat, they gathered at the dock. The road from the castle to the dock was filled with chattering, noisy or excited students. Pomona didn't need to wear an invisibility cloak, and just wore his school uniform and blended into the crowd.

This road must pass through the Arch Bridge Courtyard, which has a water monster fountain. This place is usually occupied by Emily Taylor and her friends.

Today, for some unknown reason, Emily is alone. When she is silent, she looks very beautiful, just like the quiet girl who appears with the unicorn in the poem.

"Everyone, come here!" Hagrid shouted from where he was boarding the ship.

As soon as the others started moving in that direction, Bill Weasley appeared, and he came to Emily's side nervously.

Bill is only in fifth grade now, and based on the information Pomona got from Minerva, he seems to want to be a curse breaker.

With his grades, it would be easy to pass the OWS exam, and there is no hard and fast rule that prohibits fifth grade students from participating in the Celestial Ball.

But is he serious about asking Emily Taylor to be his dance partner?

Pomona didn't rush to go with the others and stayed in a corner where they couldn't see. Because they were too far away, Pomona couldn't hear what Bill said clearly, and then Emily suddenly laughed.

"You invited me to the ball with you?" Emily asked loudly in a harsh voice.

The smile on Bill's face disappeared and he took a step back.

"I will only go with excellent people. Do you think you are excellent?" Emily continued to ask Bill.

Bill was speechless by her question.

"Besides, I don't think you can wear a dress that 'matches' me." Emily looked up and down at Bill's outfit. "Are you going to wear the hat that your Brazilian friend gave you?"

Pomona had heard from the girls in the cooking club that some people joined Emily's gang just to be Emily's "friends" so they wouldn't be teased by her.

Castrobeshe held an exchange program where European students could go there to learn about the flora and fauna of South America. Bill was a pen pal with a student in Castrobeshe. He hoped to participate in the exchange program, but Bill refused because

The Weasley family could not pay the fee. In anger, the pen pal gave Bill a cursed hat as a Christmas gift. The unknowing Bill opened the gift in the lounge and then put it on, which made Bill

Bill's ears wrinkled on the spot, even though he quickly solved the curse for himself.

"Hurry up!" Pomona pretended to be a senior and yelled at the junior students, "If you miss the boat, you have to walk there."

Others planned to stay and watch, but they were either pushed away by Pomona or pulled away by their companions.

"Ugly!" Charlie appeared out of nowhere, rushed in front of Bill, and protected him behind him. "No one invited you except my brother!"

"That's because they are self-aware and they cannot meet my requirements." Emily said coldly to Charlie.

"I really don't know what kind of person can satisfy her vision." A boy said.

Socrates once said to a lovelorn young man: You should thank the person who abandoned you and bless her. Her rejection did not deny you a chance, but gave you a new chance to find happiness.

Pomona feels that Emily and Mary are different. Emily just wants to find someone who sees the world from the same perspective as her.

Although Bill is confident, he is not as confident as Emily. If we separate, we will find someone who is more suitable for us.

At this time, Pomona saw one, no, three dog heads sticking out of Hagrid's arms. He actually brought Lu Wei out to show the children.

It was the first time they saw this strange dog. The students were very curious, but no one dared to touch it because Lu Wei looked so fierce.

Whether the boat capsized, someone fell into the water, or was bitten by Louie, it was an "accident". Pomona hurried over there, hoping it wasn't too late.
