Night Raven Master

Chapter 317 Hogsmott School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
When the magic train stopped, the four got off the train together.

On a wide platform, groups of students aged fifteen to twenty were walking towards Hogsmott's address under the guidance of several staff or teachers.

And leading Fiona's group is Martha Olivia in magician costume.

Art, who was standing on Fiona's shoulder, noticed the slightly twitching corner of her mouth.

"Hello, beauty~"

Art deliberately made the tone weird.

"Quiet your familiars, we will pass through the outer forest later, there are many magical creatures in the forest."

Martha, who searched for many ways to break the contract but failed, took a deep breath and said in a warning tone.

"Fantastic creature?"

asked a Muggle-born magician.

"Yes."

Martha half-turned and pointed into the distance.

In a huge forest, there is a tall clock tower standing in the middle of the forest, faintly, there are traces of buildings around the clock tower.

"Hogsmot was built in the middle of Hogsmot Forest, that's why it's called Hogsmot"

"Huh? Did it get its name for this reason?"

"Do you think it was founded by a great wizard called Hogsmot? Or do you think it has all kinds of special meanings?"

Because of seeing Art, Martha, who had all kinds of worries and anger mixed together, said angrily.

In fact, she was originally a very easy to get along with the teacher.

But this kind of behavior made her the first impression of "serious" and "difficult to get along with" in the hearts of freshmen.

Martha looked at the freshmen with a gloomy face, and continued:

"There are many magical creatures in this forest. It is a Hogsmot tradition to enter the school here, and it will allow you to truly get in touch with a corner of the wizarding world."

"Many of you haven't really been in contact with the magic world before. You just saw magic and were found to have the talent to use magic, and then received the admission letter."

After explaining why, Martha warns:
"They have all kinds of habits, and have reached peace with the magicians. You can observe them from a distance, but it's best not to disturb these magical creatures."

"If you want to be pig-nosed or dwarven until the Entrance Ceremony is over, piss off the magical creatures as much as you can."

"Perhaps this result will be more impressive as your first day of school?"

Hearing this sentence, all the trainee Muggle magicians immediately gathered their familiars in a hurry.

It's a freshman from a magician's family. He's already prepared, so he doesn't panic at all.

When the freshmen panicked and tried to calm down their demons, everyone had already set off, and Martha didn't wait too long, leading the freshmen into the forest.

The dense forest was unusually gloomy. In the field of vision of the freshmen, there were shadows passing by from time to time, which made their mood fluctuate continuously.

Including Fiona, who was also nervous, and then Anna took the opportunity to take a few waves of deviation.

And for Arthur.
"That one is a bit similar to the flower demon mantis, except for its strength, it should be the same species."

"That feels like a goblin."

"That's right, it's just a centaur. Are there any centaurs in this forest? I dissected a lot of Lei Guang centaurs for the experiment. I don't know if they have any extraordinary abilities. It seems that they don't have any. They are too weak. Forget it. Not worth arresting."

"I haven't seen any extraordinary birds here. Is it true that only ordinary crows can be caught?"

More than an hour later, after a heart-pounding journey without any risk, the exhausted freshmen finally arrived at the Hogsmott campus.

Passing through the forest, at the end of the path is a nearly 200-meter-long, flat area, towering, castle-like contiguous buildings standing in the abrupt plain surrounded by forests.

Moreover, there is a tall school wall surrounding those steeple-shaped buildings, which is four or five times larger than the average campus.

"Hogsmott is ahead."

Martha looked at the crowd and said, walking towards the campus.

The freshmen also followed. When they entered the campus, they found that
All the new students have arrived.

"Why?" Fiona asked in surprise and doubt.

"Because it took the farthest route."

Martha's deliberate detour did not hide from Art at all. After all, through the memories of Clottey and Martha, Art has fully grasped the terrain here.

And why Martha did it.
"Little girl, the idea of ​​trying to expose me through magical creatures is still too young."

While revealing "true identity" was planned, it was too early.

It will take him a while to figure it out.

Time comes to night.

The entrance ceremony is at night, at dinner time to be precise.

The place where the entrance ceremony was held was in Hogsmott's Great Hall.

Freshmen entered the hall and sat around long rows of desks organized by college and grade.

Hundreds of thousands of candles were lifted into the air by the power of magic, casting light to illuminate the dark auditorium, and the ceiling was specially opened to let the moonlight shine in.

The mysterious magic atmosphere renders the whole space, even the freshmen from the magician family can't help but immerse themselves in this grand ceremony.

Art, the familiar, stood on Fiona's shoulders. Although it would be more enjoyable to look down from this angle, his eyes still looked around.

Black cats, crows, blackbirds, owls, mice, squirrels... All kinds of small creatures stay quietly by the owner's side.

The power derived from the "Sedation Spell" affected these small creatures that were not strong against magic.

Afterwards, Art raised his head and looked at the four flags hanging on the high platform of the auditorium above the podium.

Pure white unicorns, turquoise griffins, pitch black bats, tan golems.

The logos of the four colleges are drawn on the flag.

And under the four flags, there are eight smaller flags.

They are:
