Chapter 281: Hogwarts Magic Awakens, Six-Four-Eight Is A Belief.

As he spoke, the suitcase Wayne brought opened automatically, and two strange devices that were about as high as the podium flew out and landed next to Hermione and Qiu.

The two girls took out a palm-sized metal plate and inserted it into the groove reserved for the device.

Wow!

The crowd suddenly became restless, with students pointing and whispering.

After a ding, a huge virtual projection appeared in the sky. It was a stage with a line in the middle dividing it into two equal halves.

Above, the projections of Cho and Hermione each occupied half of the field, holding wands.

A layman looks at the excitement, but a professional looks at the door.

The little wizards only saw realistic effects, but professors like Dumbledore could see many mysteries.

"A very sophisticated alchemy tool." Dumbledore praised: "This reminds me of the Pensieve. It has a feeling of being immersed in it and unable to distinguish between fantasy and reality.

"Did Mr. Lawrence invent any new magic spell to make the image so stable?"

Professor Flitwick was very excited. His favorite thing was all kinds of magic spells. This time he encountered a magic spell that he had never seen before, and he was already itching.

Lupine shook his head in shock: "Is he really a student?"

As one of the makers of the Marauder's Map, Lupine has a deep understanding of alchemy. He knows how difficult it is to do this, and he can't do it anyway.

“What a waste!”

Snape cursed in his heart, he was the most impatient one among them.

With such strong strength and talent, instead of studying the resurrection potion with him, I would instead make some fancy toys here.

Isn’t this Galleons enough?

Why is this guy so persistent?

It can’t be eaten as food!

Wayne gave everyone enough time to discuss and shock, and only continued after most people regained their composure.

"Please allow me to introduce to you, this is a virtual battle competitive game that I started imagining when I first entered school and took two and a half years to complete - "Hogwarts: Magic Awakening 2"

"In the game, you can experience the thrill of dueling with others without any harm, use magic spells you have never learned before, and control various legendary magical creatures."

Wayne said as cards flew out of him one after another.

snowball, thundercloud, hurricane, frozen, fire dragon, unicorn, snow

These cards flew out, and special effects appeared in the air, causing waves of exclamations.

Especially when the fire dragon and thunderbird appeared, the sky was full of flames and thunder phantoms, which brought the atmosphere to its peak!

"Wayne! How on earth are you playing!" shouted Justin Finch-Fletchley, who was born as a Muggle. "This reminded him of those fighting games on Muggle consoles.

But the difference is that the display effect of Wayne's cards is more than a hundred times stronger than those low-pixel special effects.

But the special effects are good-looking, but it also depends on whether they are exciting to watch or not.

Ginny gave him a hard look.

She, a paid shill, was preempted before she could say anything. Wouldn't Wayne ask her for a refund?

"Don't be anxious." Wayne pressed down with one hand, "The next step is the demonstration session. You can step back a little so you can see more clearly."

"It should be noted that the projection device is only for better display effect. Even if there is no projection device, you can directly play against each other by putting two game consoles together [the screen will be much smaller]"

He turned back and looked at Qiu and Hermione: "Are you ready?"

"Well, there's no problem anymore."

It was also the first time for the two of them to come into contact. Taking advantage of Wayne's introduction, they also became familiar with the control method, which was relatively simple.

When the wand points on the specific position on the projection, the character will automatically walk over. There is a transparent panel in front of him, and he can see the magic that can be released and the cards for summoning creatures.

To release a magic spell, you need to select the magic spell, and then select the release direction and location.

Wayne walked to Hermione's machine and debugged it for a moment, then lowered the height of the projection to the position where everyone had just moved out of the way.

Looking at it this way, it was as if someone was really going to duel in front of them.

As Wayne pressed the button, a countdown appeared above the duel stage. After three seconds, the battle officially began.

Hermione controlled her avatar to retreat, and at the same time selected the Snowball spell card and aimed it at Qiu.

A huge snowball rolled over, but Qiu also controlled the movement of his character at the same time and easily dodged it. In response, he fired a flying curse, pulling Hermione back to near the center line.

Qiu Ye stepped forward immediately, and his wand sent out rays to hit Hermione's head one after another. The health bars of both of them were slowly decreasing.

In the school auditorium, only the sound of virtual characters chanting incantations could be heard. Others were silent, their eyes fixed on the duel stage, for fear of missing the wonderful moment.

The spells used by the two are very common magic, and many young wizards know it.

Flying Curse, Disarming Curse, Iron Armor Curse, Water Calling Curse, Inflatable Curse...

Wayne's explanation voice came at the right time: "When you purchase the game itself, each machine comes with ten preset spells and summons. For more advanced spells, you need to purchase card packs to obtain "orders." "

"The levels of cards are divided into four levels: white, blue, purple, and gold. The higher the level, the rarer it is. It is a test of one's luck..."

As he spoke, he introduced some more rules.

While talking, Qiu used a card that made many Quidditch enthusiasts excited.

George shouted: "Budgers? You made the bludgers into spells?"

A Bludger appeared in the field, causing considerable damage after hitting Hermione, and then flew back. Qiu quickly controlled the character to predict the landing point, swung the bat and fired again, but unfortunately she only caught it twice. A bit of a waste of magic.

Harry and Malfoy were very familiar with the magic scale, as the practice wands they used in class were like this.

No wonder Wayne said he had been practicing for two and a half years. It turned out that he had been preparing since then.

Both of their health bars have bottomed out, and after the initial rush, they have figured out the tricks of the game.

The atmosphere became tense, and the students all sweated for Hermione and Qiu, cheering them on.

"Granger! We must win!"

"Zhang! You represent Ravenclaw!"

The shouts in the auditorium were enough to knock down the ceiling.

Suddenly, a 'little Hermione' who was even smaller than her appeared next to Hermione.

Whatever magic she unleashes next, little Hermione will use it too.

And next to Qiu, another Qiu also appeared. As he waved his wand, Qiu's blood volume also slowly increased, and Qiu's movement speed was also increased, allowing him to evade the curse more calmly.

Wayne had to use his loud voice to overcome everyone's enthusiasm and explained: "Character card! A very special card. Unlike other cards that can be used repeatedly, character cards can only be used once per game and have powerful abilities."

Finally, Qiu, who had increased her speed, avoided several of Hermione's spells, and gained a lot of health thanks to her increased health, and finally won the game.

Ravenclaw's eaglets cheered loudly.

"Wayne, can we give it a try?" George jumped up and shouted as he scurried around behind.

Not only him, almost all the little wizards present were impatient. Seeing Hermione and Qiu fighting so heartily, they wanted to go up and try it too!

"Of course you can. I have arranged a one-hour trial time. The built-in cards are very complete. Interested students can try it out for themselves."

"Now please step aside a little more to make room for the machine!"

With a bang, all the little wizards crowded into the corner. Wayne still felt that it was not enough, so he cast a traceless expansion spell to double the size of the auditorium, and then took out eight identical machines and set them up.

The little wizards almost got into a fight to compete for the spots, but Wayne calmed down the storm by asking them to draw lots.

One set of equipment was left to the professors.

Wayne stood aside, and Dumbledore had already taken a position, looking for his opponent.

"Remus John, do you want to try it?"

"Of course." Lupine was about to walk over, but Snape blocked his position.

"How about letting me do it?"

Lupine shrugged helplessly and gave the opportunity to Snape.

Professor McGonagall said in surprise: "Snape, are you actually interested in games? Oh, I don't mean that the game is not good, on the contrary it is very interesting."

"I'm just happy to see you hunting." Snape said calmly.

He is not interested in games, he is interested in Dumbledore!

If you can't beat this old guy in real life, why can't you beat him up in the game?

The two people standing in front of the machine did not start fighting immediately, but browsed the card information to select the cards they needed to match.

Each deck can only have eight spell cards and three partner cards. If you don't choose them well, it will be difficult to form coordination.

"Severus, I can't wait to get started, what about you?" Dumbledore said briskly.

"Then come on." Snape's face turned dark because he saw his proud spell - Shen Feng Wu Ying!

The old bat glared at Wayne fiercely, blaming him for exposing his trump card.

"The effect is not the same, what are you afraid of?" Wayne whispered beside him.

"I have to borrow your image to create a card later. The materials I gave you before will be used as endorsement fees."

Snape turned green.

While preparations were still underway, the students were not so patient.

After understanding the rules, I couldn't wait to start the battle.

Malfoy and Harry were friends again, and they were surprised to find that Wayne had actually designed their companion card.

"That's great." Ronald was extremely sour, but Harry had no time to worry about the loss of his good friend at the moment. He prepared his deck with excitement and started a battle with Malfoy.

As soon as he came up, Harry summoned a phoenix, which surrounded him and kept adding blood.

Malfoy, on the other hand, used his own character card, and Crabbe and Goyle beside him also laughed out loud, because this character card not only showed Malfoy alone, but also the two of them.

Immediately afterwards, Malfoy summoned another giant monster. Seeing the four big men on his side rushing towards Harry, he shouted proudly:

"Did you see that my card is so powerful, it's special!"

"Harry, your health is full. This phoenix is ​​not wasted. Hurry up and use the partner card."

Ronald couldn't care less about being depressed and quickly gave Harry advice, just like those old men watching a chess game.

Harry quickly said "Oh" and released his partner card. A little Harry appeared in front of him and used the Patronus Charm, knocking all the monsters away and protecting him.

""||Unfair!" Malfoy jumped angrily: "You haven't learned the Patronus Charm, why is your card skill the Patronus Charm?"

Wayne happened to be passing by and after hearing his question, he said, "Oh, I just want to encourage Harry to learn this spell as soon as possible."

Then he reminded: "Use magic quickly, you will be beaten to death."

Wayne glanced at Malfoy

cards, a little speechless.

The cards he matched were all high-cost cards. It took Harry two or three spells to accumulate enough magic power, and then he threw out an Australian Oval Eye, which forced him to stand for half a day.

Harry's side wasn't much better. All the spells he configured were unable to remove Malfoy's monster card. When the partner card disappeared, he was beaten up.

It's just novices pecking each other.

The auditorium was in full swing, and you could hear the excited screams of the little wizard at any time, as well as the voices of people nearby coming up with ideas.

Wayne is quite satisfied with the effect.

In fact, there are many game ideas that he can copy, such as Hearthstone and Golden Shovel.

But a standalone card game actually doesn't fit well with the wizard's culture, and this type of combat may be more popular.

Moreover, you can also learn a lot of spell effects, monster characteristics, and some combat experience from the game, so that the professors will not object too much.

Just look at Professor McGonagall's performance.

The older catgirl was keeping an eye on Snape and Dumbledore, waiting to fill their place at any time.

An hour passed quickly.

When Wayne was about to put away the machine, the people who were playing were reluctant to leave, and those who didn't see him were even more unhappy.

But there's nothing we can do, it's already past nine o'clock, and the curfew will be imposed if we delay any longer.

"Lawrence, I want to buy a game console now and ten card packs!" Malfoy said impatiently after collecting the machine.

He had just beaten Harry twice in a row, which was really satisfying to him.

How about not letting him play?

"I want ten too!" Harry was also hit hard and shouted.

Ronald pulled him quickly.

"Are you crazy! We don't know the price yet, but you just said you want ten of them. Such a powerful thing must be very expensive!"

Harry calmed down instantly and closed his mouth.

The others were looking at Wayne nervously now, wondering what if the price was too expensive and they couldn't afford it.

Facing everyone's gaze, Wayne stepped onto the high platform again, cleared his throat, and said with a smile: "Now I will announce the price of the game console and card pack."

"The price of a game console is three galleons."

The crowd cheered and applauded excitedly.

The price of three galleons is definitely not cheap, but it is a great value for money on this game console.

They also tried it just now. Two game consoles were spliced ​​together without projection equipment. The projection table that appeared was as big as a table, and you could have a lot of fun playing it.

"The price of the card pack..."

Wayne showed a nostalgic look, as if he was remembering his lost youth, and then said:

"The price of the ten card pack is 168 Nats, and there is guaranteed to be a purple card."

"The price of the twenty card pack is: 328 Nat, guaranteed to have two or more purple cards."

"The price of the forty card pack is: 648 Nats, guaranteed to contain gold cards or gold card fragments, and five additional cards will be given away."

"Before the end of this school year, any student who purchases ten sets of 648 will receive a game console as a gift."

The crowd fell silent.

The exchange relationship between Nat, Sickle, and Galleons was very complicated. For a while, no one even figured out how many Galleons the money was.

It was Hermione who got the answer first: "It's about one galleung, plus five Sickles.

"Lawrence, why do you make the price so strange to the literary people?" Malfoy said with some dissatisfaction.

Just now, he was shocked when he heard such a big number as 648. He was still calculating how much ten packs were, but after hearing Hermione say it, wasn't it eleven or twelve galleons?

"You don't understand." Wayne looked at him seriously: "648 is a belief!"

Those who are not interested in the game don’t need to subscribe for the next chapter, and there won’t be too many descriptions later on. This is just for one more way to earn points.

After finishing this part in the next chapter, we will return to the main line. .
