Chapter 576
"Black, you lied to me."
After sending Charlie away, Professor Barbling said to Black in dissatisfaction.
"I lied to you? How did I lie to you?" Black asked puzzledly.
"You told me before that you would select a warrior... It seemed that the warrior's life would be in danger at any time, but..."
Before, Black said that this experiment seemed extremely dangerous, but today, it seems that it is not the case at all...
What should I do if I draw it wrong? Just erase it and draw it again! That's it? You said it's like jumping off a cliff?
Professor Barbling felt that she was completely deceived.
"Professor Barbling, I understand what you mean. Here, I apologize to you first. I did hide something from you." Black explained with a smile.
"Then... why did you hide it? This is actually irrelevant?" Professor Barbling was puzzled.
It's obviously not dangerous, why make it as if there is no chance of survival?
Black said lightly: "Because no one will cherish things that are too easy to get."
Professor Barber looked at Black in surprise, and seemed to understand something in her eyes.
"Things that are too easy to get... you mean..."
Black smiled and said: "Charlie now has all the conditions to become a card wizard, but... in his heart, this is what he fought for with his own life. Even though I just said that this is not dangerous, he just thought I was comforting him so that he would not be too nervous during the experiment. So... if it were you, you had something that you exchanged your life for, how would you treat it?"
Professor Barber suddenly realized, "Yes! That's exactly the truth!"
People will not cherish things that are easily obtained, this is true for objects and opportunities!
"Besides, if we want to revive the new ancient runes, it's not enough to rely on just the two of us. We need more determined people. Nothing can make people cherish and be more determined than the opportunity to exchange their lives for it! Remember, this is the path they chose with their lives!"
"So... is this why you gave Charlie two choices just now?" Professor Barbling now fully understands what Blake means.
As soon as the magic circuit is drawn, the squib becomes a wizard again. Then, most people will give up the hard research and choose a more convenient path, such as becoming an ordinary wizard.
However, people like Charlie will definitely walk firmly on this new path. Even if there is no road ahead, he will find a way to open up a road!
A new magic school needs countless determined people like Charlie.
"You are not old, but you have a lot of ideas." Professor Barbling sighed.
"Actually, I'm an old monster. Really. I've lived for thousands of years." Blake said expressionlessly.
"I knowYou are joking, but I think it is surprisingly reasonable! Very reasonable! "Professor Babel said seriously. "You are not really an old monster, are you?"
...
It was October, and the weather in Hogwarts had become very cold.
Black also didn't like going out.
Cassandra said that he became as lazy as the runes snake he raised.
Only when he was in class did Black have to leave his warm office and go downstairs to the classroom.
For example, now...
Although Black also placed several pots of sunflowers in the classroom downstairs, making the room warm as spring.
But he still felt very uncomfortable on the way from going out to going downstairs...
"Today we can do something serious, guys!"
In class, Black opened his hands and said loudly.
"Really? It's not serious now? "Fred shouted excitedly.
At this time, the puppets in their hands, under the guidance of Blake, have become able to move freely.
George and Fred even equipped their puppets with small crossbows...
Although the crossbow is small, it can shoot toothpicks directly into brick walls!
It can be said that it is already a very dangerous "toy"!
But Blake told them that these are just small fights.
"So... Professor, what kind of thing is considered serious? "George's curiosity was also aroused.
Now, a new game has emerged among these students.
That is, each of them uses their own modified puppets to fight in a self-made small arena...
The Weasley twins equipped their puppets with crossbows because of this.
Because of this game, Professor McGonagall had to talk to Black several times.
Although the small puppet fight was not dangerous, since the Weasley twins began to upgrade their puppets' equipment, this game has become dangerous, such as the small crossbow that can shoot into brick walls...
But Black not only did not support the decision to ban this game, he even helped them to make the original shoddy small arena... It is safer.
In this way, safety is guaranteed, and students can use the alchemy they learned from Black on their puppets.
Professor McGonagall had no choice but to find Dumbledore.
But... after learning about this new game, Dumbledore not only failed to fulfill his duties as the headmaster (Professor McGonagall's original words), but even watched with great interest...
This made Professor McGonagall very angry. In the end, the result of her efforts was only one, that is, it is forbidden to activate any small puppets anywhere other than the small arena!
However, Black's support for this game also made the students' alchemy... at least in the alchemy puppets, progress rapidly.
BlakeA smile appeared on Black's face, "Yes, what you made is just a small fight. You haven't seen the truly powerful alchemical puppets that can be called combat puppets!"
"Then Professor! Where can we see such powerful puppets?"
As a close friend of the Weasley twins, Lee Jordan is also a person who likes to watch the fun.
Of course, Black is crazier than them...
"It doesn't take long to find such puppets in this castle! They have existed since the castle was built. They have been silently protecting Hogwarts and guarding the safety of generations of teachers and students in the castle." Black smiled.
As soon as Black finished speaking, the little wizards below became excited.
They have almost played with the small puppets, but they haven't seen the big ones yet!
You know, the ancient runes of small puppets are completely different from those of large puppets!
The difference is like the difference between a toy car's small motor and a real car engine.
After playing with models for a long time, everyone wants to see the real thing...
"Really? Can you take us to see it?"
"Where is it? Is it hidden in the castle's secret room? I know there are many secret rooms in Hogwarts!"
"Is it those armors? Many of those armors can move! I even encountered an armor that can hum a song!"
"Oh? Are you talking about the annoying armor that was dismantled by the armor next to it?"
"Yes! But every day when I pass by there, I will find that it has returned to its original appearance. And then it is dismantled again..."
Blake raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling everyone to stay calm.
"You all didn't guess right... In fact, you can actually see them every day." Blake laughed.
"Blake, don't keep us in suspense! Tell us now!" Fred was so excited that he didn't even call the professor.
"Ahem... I can take you to see them, or even activate them temporarily, but... it's a bit cold outside..." Blake hesitated and looked out the window.
"I'll hold the sunflowers for you! You won't get cold!"
"I'm big, I'll help you block the wind!"
Black nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, since you are so sensible, I'll take you there with reluctance."
In fact, Blake himself is also very interested in these puppets. He has long wanted to study them carefully. Now that he has a legitimate reason to study them, Blake guesses that Professor Dumbledore should not object...
As for Professor McGonagall... ahem, may Merlin protect her... (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"Professor, so where are those puppets you mentioned?" Harry couldn't help asking.
Blake laughed and said, "You don't really think... those statues in the castle are just statues, do you?"
"Ah? So those statuesAre they puppets? !"
"It must be! Didn't you see that those puppets are holding weapons in their hands!"
The students began to discuss excitedly.[]
Hermione was worried about this, "Blake... I mean, Professor, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Any questions, Miss Granger?" Black asked with a smile.
"Wouldn't this be bad? Otherwise... apply to Professor Dumbledore first?" Hermione asked cautiously.
She intuitively felt that activating these combat puppets so hastily might be... not good... Anyway, if she were Professor McGonagall, she would definitely be very angry.
"No need! We just need to check them out and then send them back to their original positions. If we really want to apply, I don't know how long we have to wait. Besides, those puppets have been there for thousands of years, and they haven't been inspected or anything. What if they don't work? What if something really happens in the future and they can't be activated? I can check it on the way."
Hermione was speechless for a while. When she heard Black say this, she knew that this guy was determined to do it.
"That's right! That's right! The professor is a master of alchemy, and he is helping the school to inspect those battle puppets! "Cassandra immediately agreed with Black's idea.
Hermione looked at Cassandra helplessly, and said, "Just let him mess around!"
Then, a group of hundreds of people surrounded Black and went down the tower.
Black took the lead and walked directly to the door of the auditorium. He remembered that there were three knight puppets above the door of the auditorium.
So many people walking together immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding oil paintings.
Some characters in the portraits immediately ran to find Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall.
After all, so many people walking together, either a parade or a fight...
Neither of the two is a good thing.
At this time, Black was already standing at the door of the auditorium.
He pulled out his wand and pointed to the three grids above the door.
"See? The three statues in the three grids."
"Is that the battle puppet? I never noticed it before..." someone sighed.
In the past, people always came and went in a hurry, and no one paid special attention to the three statues above.
The three knight statues were all in full armor.
The statue on the left held a halberd, the statue in the middle held a sword and shield, and the statue on the right held a long axe. They looked very difficult to deal with.
"Professor, how do we activate these puppets?" someone else asked.
"Well, everyone step back!" After Black took a close look at the three combat puppets above with the Eye of Truth, he knew how to activate only these three puppets.
There was no way. If he didn't take a look first, what if he cast a spell and directly awakened all the combat puppets in Hogwarts?
Dumbledore must spank him!
The crowd swishedHe stepped back more than ten steps, leaving enough space for Blake.
Blake pointed his magic wand at the three puppets.
"Stone Pillar, move!"
The moment the spell came out, Blake felt that the three puppets seemed to have established some kind of connection with his magic wand.
Then, his magic power was automatically sucked up and immersed in the bodies of the three statues of 723.
The next second.
"Crack!"
"Boom!"
The three statues suddenly trembled, and then, the huge bodies of the three statues moved at the same time!
Their eyes hidden under the helmets seemed to fall on Blake, as if waiting for Blake's order.
Blake was overjoyed. This was definitely an extremely excellent combat puppet!
It was not difficult to manipulate this kind of alchemical puppet!
"Come down. Stand still." Blake gave the first command to the combat puppets in his mind.
"Dong Dong Dong!" The three puppets moved immediately.
They pulled their legs out of their fixed positions and jumped down at the same time...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The three statues half-knelt on the ground and fell very steadily from a height of six or seven meters.
The poor floor tiles were smashed into three big holes, but the three puppets were not damaged at all.
The three combat puppets stood up again, obeyed Blake's instructions, and stood still.
At this time, the students were stunned when they saw these three combat puppets that were extremely difficult to mess with, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.
However, Blake couldn't care about these guys who had never seen the world at this time. Blake took advantage of this moment to do something with the three statues... He wanted to figure out the alchemical principles in them and then verify his own research.
Soon, other students also reacted and approached the three statues to watch.
Just as everyone was discussing in a mess.
An angry voice came from behind everyone.
"Black Green! How dare you do this!"
Professor McGonagall was like an angry lioness, waiting for Black Green.
Beside her, Dumbledore also looked at Black helplessly.
This kid... is too noisy!
"I... I'm just helping the school to inspect the Cryptid Golems for free and teach at the same time." Black said weakly.
Professor McGonagall was about to explode, but before she could speak, Dumbledore next to her spoke.
"Oh... is that so? So, did you find any problems? I have to say that these old objects really need to be inspected." Dumbledore walked up with interest and joined the tour.
Professor McGonagall was furious... Albus, just spoil him! She had no doubt that it was Black who demolished the castle.If you want to study the flow of the pipes, Dumbledore will say that it is a good idea to dismantle them!
But...
"If that's the case..." Professor McGonagall took a few deep breaths, "Then I will go and activate the other combat puppets and send them to you for inspection."
Professor McGonagall left quickly...
Stone Pillars?
I have always wanted to try this spell...
