The next day, when Mike woke up, he was surprised to find that instead of lifting the martial law at Hogwarts, there were more people patrolling.
Mike is very confused about this, because Hogwarts in the original book, except for the fact that the number of casualties has been increasing during the late sophomore plot, and almost closed down, he is not so nervous about the basilisk and the heir of the secret room.
But after a careful analysis of the wave, Mike also understood why Dumbledore did this.
In the original work, because the victims were all petrified, Dumbledore might not know that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk, or he knew that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk, but he was confident that he could deal with the basilisk. So in order to allow Harry to accumulate adventurous experience and prestige again, there was no martial law on purpose.
And the current situation is obviously different from the original.
The news that the monster in the secret room is a basilisk has spread, and other professors and school directors at Hogwarts will not allow such a magical creature that may cause huge casualties at any time to continue to stay in the castle.
You must know that almost all children in the entire British wizarding world go to school in Hogwarts. These children are the future of the wizarding world. If they are slaughtered by the basilisk, it will cause a huge blow to the wizarding world.
In this case, it is no surprise that Dumbledore initiated martial law throughout the school.
Mike, who was discharged from the hospital, joined the temporary management team to protect and maintain student order. This temporary team is all composed of outstanding senior students. Dumbledore gave them the ability to deduct other people’s college points, but set a limit. The maximum deduction limit per person is 50 points. In order to make up for their wasted study time, Dumbledore promised that as long as he joined the team, he would give them extra points in the subsequent N.E.W.T exams.
Mike was originally ineligible to join this team, but Professor Flivy finally agreed to his request to join under his soft and hard soaking.
However, Professor Flitwick was still very worried about Mike. Although Mike had escaped from the Basilisk, he still gave him a mission to protect his classmates and did not let him participate in dangerous patrols.
So Mike’s job now is to stay with the other team members in the Hogwarts auditorium to protect the students gathered here.
In order to distinguish Mike and these players from ordinary students, Mike and the others wear an H-shaped metal brooch that symbolizes Hogwarts on their school uniform robes.
The role of this brooch is not only a beautiful decoration, it also has an immediate warning function. Once someone encounters a danger, just use magic to stimulate the brooch a little, and it will give a warning to all brooches within 5 kilometers around. This warning can not only let the person receiving the warning know the dangerous location, but also has a special reminder function .
After receiving the warning, the needle of the brooch will deform and pierce the pene shallowly into the chest. Although it will not cause any harm to the pene, the pain guarantees that you can be the first time even if you fall asleep react to.
Mike heard from the senior students of the same team that this brooch is a simplified version of the Auror brooch, so the function is relatively simple. In addition to the warning function, the special brooches equipped by the Aurors also have other practical functions such as real-time communication, which surprised Mike.
Mike thought that the wizarding world had very little research on this aspect. Now it seems that the alchemy in the wizarding world has developed to a very high level, and even portable communication devices have been studied.
And Dumbledore also made a promise that after this incident is over, this brooch will be given to Mike as a medal of honor for the warriors who are willing to stand up at the critical moment of Hogwarts. This is also the willingness of many 7th grade pure-blood students. Reasons for joining the temporary management team.
In the eyes of these pure-blood students, honor is far more important than N.E.W.T.
Time passed day by day, and the professors and the temporary management team still did not find the basilisk.
The students locked up in the auditorium also knew about the existence of the basilisk, so Dumbledore's most worried thing finally happened.
"Slytherin's heir will kill all the Mudbloods, and you will be the next one!" a Slytherin boy shouted at a Muggle-born student in Hufflepuff.
The Hufflepuff student is listlessly gnawing the dry food distributed by the school. These days, under the invisible deterrence of the basilisk, the Hogwarts kitchen has also been shut down, and he has been eating and vomiting every day. The scream that the Slytherin student suddenly rushed out directly shocked him, and even fell to the ground without holding the dry food in his hand.
The Slytherin students on the side burst out laughing.
The little wizard of Hufflepuff looked at the laughter and his eyes blushed. Amid the laughter of everyone, he quickly leaned over and picked up the dry food that fell on the ground and fled away.
His move caused even more intense ridicule. Among them, a Slytherin boy was even lying on the floor with a smile~EbookFREE.me~ but what they didn’t know was that Hufflepuff’s little boy The conditions in the wizard’s house are very bad. His mother taught him not to waste food since he was a child. The reason why he came to Hogwarts to go to school was not because he was interested in magic, but because Hogwarts did not require tuition and provided food and accommodation. .
As long as he comes to Hogwarts to study, he can greatly reduce the pressure at home and leave more food for his brothers and sisters to eat.
There are many people like him in Hogwarts. Britain, as a veteran zibenist country, is not as glamorous as outsiders seem at this time. The rise of the sun never sets empire is based on countless workers. On the bones.
Mike, who was guarding in the auditorium, had a panoramic view of everything that happened, and the anger in the hearts of the Muggle-descent wizards who dared not say anything was uncontrollable.
"Slytherin deducted 50 points!"
Mike said coldly as everyone watched in the auditorium and came to the side of the few Slytherins.
Everyone in Slytherin seemed unconcerned about Mike’s deduction. They were actually clever people who had already sent letters to tell their families what happened at Hogwarts. Most of their families were The veteran nobleman in the wizarding world has great influence.
Now the families of these Slytherin students have united to put pressure on the Ministry of Magic. If Dumbledore still cannot find the Basilisk in the next week, Hogwarts will probably be closed for rectification. As Hogwarts is about to close, the college points will of course not matter.
"Oh! Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Ravenclaw's Mike." The Slytherin headed up said grotesquely, "Why? You want to be a hero again for your fellow Mudbloods?"
