A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 215 Assessment
"Professor." "Hello, Professor Haip."

Harry, Cedric, Ron and Hermione said hello.

"Come and sit." Felix nodded at them. He waved his wand, and four small tables emerged from the grass, and the four of them sat down on their seats.

Small teacups jumped into their hands one after another, and the long-necked teapot behind them bent gracefully, pouring out amber liquid.

Harry drank the tea. He rarely drank tea, but he thought it tasted good. The long-necked teapot leaned over to refill him. He curiously scratched the big belly of the teapot with his fingers, but it suddenly trembled, As if being scratched to an itch, it shook "bang dang bang dang", and the tea was spilled all over the small table.

"Excuse me, Professor? It suddenly became..." Harry was at a loss.

"Oh, it's not your problem." Felix waved his wand to quiet the teapot again. "I've recently tried to make them active and more autonomous...but sometimes they seem too active."

Hermione asked in surprise, "You endowed them with intelligence?"

"It's not that exaggerated. It should be said to be a dull response. From the perspective of the feedback mechanism, they—" Felix pointed to the small platform in front of him, "Actually, it's more advanced."

The eyes of the four fell on the magic puppet——

The drama is still going on, these 'actors' seem to have their own wisdom, some are full of emotion, and they read their lines very smoothly, while others are a little perfunctory, stopping from time to time, as if they have forgotten the words, and live It took a few seconds to go on.

The guy next to him who doesn't have a task will look around and look very unprofessional.For example, a magic puppet with the appearance of a strange old man. He carried a flagon and stuffed it into his mouth from time to time.

Harry stared at it for a long time, and finally confirmed that the small flagon was completely a decoration. He said strangely: "Professor, are they still lazy?" He searched his memory, looking for similar examples: "It's like the ones in school. Portraits, do you have your own hobbies?"

Felix explained, "Their intelligence is similar to that of the portraits, but in essence, they have no emotions, and all behaviors are designed. Of course, I don't intend for them to have the same intelligence as humans and understand Simple commands will do."

The four listened half-understood, and Ron said enviously, "It sounds a bit like a house elf, who can help you with housework or something. I was looking forward to owning one and letting him do my homework for me."

Hermione said, "Ron, they don't do such boring things."

"No, Hermione, you don't know, they do everything, they are all-rounders." Ron retorted, "If you don't believe me, ask Harry, Dobby should have told him?"

Harry shook his head. "Dobby didn't say much about his life at the Malfoy's house, but it must have been pretty bad." He looked at Felix. "Professor, is Dobby okay now?"

The day before the start of school, Dobby resigned from the Leaky Cauldron, and is currently handling some book publishing issues for Professor Haip.

Felix nodded and smiled, "He's doing a good job, I'm thinking about giving him a raise..." He waved his wand, ending the theatrical performance. "Okay, let's get back to the topic, are you all planning to join the Rune Club?"

"Yes, Professor." Harry took out a stack of parchment, "This is my thesis." Ron also took out some crumpled parchment from his schoolbag, and he tried to smooth out the rolled up parchment. corner.

Felix's wand tapped on it, and it snapped into place.

Ron asked with great interest, "Professor Haipu, what kind of magic is this?"

Felix said lightly, "A simple little trick isn't even magic."

He turned to look at Cedric, "Diggory, from your performance in class, you are fully qualified..."

Cedric rejected his offer: "I practiced for a lot of time in private, and I want you to see the results."

Felix had no reason not to agree. He took out the semi-finished magic puppet from the ring, and there were only faint traces of runes on it. "You have about two hours, I think it should be enough."

Cedric took it over energetically and began to work seriously.

With a wave of his wand, Felix silenced all around him, free from distractions.Cedric was startled at first, then understood, and thanked Felix with a smile.

The students who participated in the assessment came one after another, and they also looked at this space curiously.Several seventh-grade students pointed and showed nostalgic expressions.

A senior girl said with emotion: "We took the magic text practice class here last year. I dug up three hidden boxes and got together a precious magic text manuscript."

The three of Harry began to busy record the information of those who participated in the assessment, and they saw many familiar figures.

Harry saw a few of his teammates, "Angelina, Alia, Katie, you're all here!" He also saw the twins coming from a distance, and jokingly said, "Is it today's football game?" Team party?"

"Oh no, Katie and I came to try, and Alicia is very promising." Angelina said, "As for Wood, he didn't come, I guess he is hiding somewhere to study new tactics. The last year , he would certainly like another Quidditch Cup."

While talking, the twins walked over with their shoulders on each other, as if they were playing some kind of game. When they got closer, Harry realized that their legs were tightly glued together.

"We're testing the limits of the Sticking Charm," said Fred, rolling his eyes. "Isn't it cool?"

The twins performed exaggeratedly, but they failed to control the distance and rolled to the ground together.

The three girls giggled, and Angelina waved her hand, "Oh, don't make me laugh."

Ron rarely saw the unlucky twins, he took the initiative to come over, squatted in front of them with a smile, holding a piece of parchment and said, "Excuse me, the content of the assessment you have chosen is—"

The twins were lying on the ground, and Fred said cheerfully, "Silly boy, we are here to watch the excitement, and we have already received an internal invitation."

Ron looked at them in surprise: "What you said is true?"

"Of course, I think Hermione got a place too."

"But she wrote the thesis just like us!" said Ron.

Hearing Ron's words, Fred looked at George and pretended to say, "Should we reflect on ourselves? It will appear that we are being lazy."

George sighed, "Fortunately, we came prepared."

The two stood up from the ground, walked to Felix, and took out a palm-sized heart-shaped cube from their pockets. "Professor, remember the couple mirror last semester? This is the final product."

Felix played with the magical creation in his hand. It looked more refined, with one side painted black and the other pink.With his finger on it, the heart-shaped square automatically split into two halves.

"You designed it as a pair? A clever idea..."

Its interior is shaped like a small cosmetic mirror, but instead of a lens in the middle, it is a carefully polished circular plane coated with a layer of silver powder.

There are some patterns engraved on the outside of the circular plane. Felix rubbed these uneven lines and felt familiar traces.

"Is this the rune circuit I taught you last year?"

"That's right, we took your suggestion into consideration and used the rune circuit to store synchronous magic, and the effect is very good - the information transmission is more accurate, and the communication distance is also longer." Fred said.

"We also added magic to prevent cracking," George said.

Percy didn't know when he appeared, and he and Penelope Clearwater of Ravenclaw College stood far away,
Penello said to Percy: "They seem to have worked out something amazing, that couple mirror."

"You know?" Percy said unexpectedly.

Penello said calmly: "They sneaked into Ravenclaw's common room two days ago to promote their new products, and they also wrote down the names of several interested buyers."

"You didn't drive them away?"

"Why? Anyone is welcome in Ravenclaw, as long as they can answer the question at the door correctly. And," she laughed, "I put my name on the list, too."

"Penello, how could you..." Percy looked at the twins in the distance and stopped talking. His two younger brothers were talking with Professor Haipu, discussing in a serious manner, with high spirits on their faces.
