The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 648 Beckman-style education

Link and the others followed Beckman straight down to the underground of Durmstrang Castle.

This is a quite huge underground space, its area and even height are almost the same as the Quidditch pitch on the ground.

If it was just simply big, it would actually be okay.

Because of the existence of the Traceless Stretch Spell, although it is also very expensive to open up such a space, it is still not very difficult overall.

What really surprised Link was that the temperature here was actually higher than on the ground, and the air humidity and oxygen content were also quite pleasant, without any moisture or unpleasant smell at all.

This is quite difficult to achieve.

Just look at the Potions classroom at Hogwarts that was originally under Snape's control.

Magic potions are often refined when you are underground. The air humidity there is so high that you can wipe out water on your hand by just touching the wall, and there is always a weird smell of medicinal herbs in the air.

To truly make this large underground space as pleasant as this one, at the very least, the climate maintenance system must be fully turned on, and a fresh air system must be set up to work 24 hours a day.

Even if the funds provided by Link are quite sufficient, and Beckman himself is also rich, it will still cost a lot of money to maintain the operation of this place.

"This is Durmstrang's Defense Against the Dark Arts training ground."

Beckman seemed to notice Link's surprise, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said proudly.

Hearing this, Link didn't say much, but Mrs. Foley said in disbelief:

"It's all in such a large area? This is a bit too..."

"You want to say this is too extravagant?"

Beckman smiled even more happily. He pointed at the facilities scattered throughout the underground space and said, "Yes, this is indeed luxurious enough. Because this place is not only big, we also have the best alchemy equipment here." A puppet target, the best ballistic trajectory display correction system, the best automatic triggering system for protection spells, a full-coverage shielding spell, the best duel venue, and the most top-notch treatment system! Each of these costs a lot, But it's all worth it! Because of such good facilities, I can now say that the average combat effectiveness of Durmstrang students is definitely the strongest among all students in Europe. Oh, of course, this Exceptions like Link must be excluded from the calculations."

After saying that, Beckman winked at Link.

The Durmstrang students accompanying them all raised their heads proudly when they heard this.

The corners of Link's mouth raised slightly and he said:

"Prove it to me."

"It's as easy as you want it to be!"

Beckman snapped his fingers as he spoke.

Immediately, the accompanying students automatically divided into several groups. One group came to Link and others and raised their wands towards the alchemy puppet target not far away.

"Avada Kedavra!"

A series of almost synchronized incantations sounded, and several rays of green light poured out from the tips of their staffs, hitting the alchemy puppet target in an instant.

And those targets also turned gray-white the moment they were hit, and there was a unique smell of death permeating them.

This is the effect of the mimetic alchemist target. It can show the various reactions of real humans after being hit by a curse to the greatest extent. It is the most advanced kind of puppet target.

Seeing this, the expressions of Link, Mrs. Foley and Emily all changed.

They were not surprised that Beckman had really moved top-notch items such as the Mimic Alchemy Doll Target into this underground space, but that what those students just used turned out to be a killing curse!

Even though the power is weaker in the hands of these students, it is still a genuine black magic, and it is still the Unforgivable Curse!

Although Durmstrang Magic School is famous for teaching students black magic.

But the 'Unforgivable Curse' is really a bit too much, right?

Moreover, under the suppression of the "International Federation of Wizards", didn't Durmstrang's black magic teaching courses exist in name only?

Beckman obviously also knew what Emily and Mrs. Foley were thinking.

He smiled slightly and explained:

"You read that right, they did use the Death Curse, but I can guarantee that it has nothing to do with Durmstrang's professors. We have never taught them any black magic. On the contrary, since Link After becoming the sole school director of Durmstrang, we carried out educational reforms in Durmstrang. Not only did we cancel the black magic course, but we also increased the educational intensity of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course to the extreme. !”

"Dad...Dad, if it's true what you said..." Mrs. Foley said a little awkwardly, "Then why were those children able to cast the killing curse just now?"

"Are you talking about them? They are just a group of naughty students who are unwilling to abide by school rules."

Hearing Mrs. Foley call him 'Dad', Beckman was so excited that his whole body trembled, and he danced and said, "Durmstrang's Defense Against the Dark Arts class is definitely the most meticulous in education. We not only teach students Various battles...oh no, they are techniques to protect yourself. At the same time, in order to allow students to better protect themselves when facing the attack of black magic, we will also explain in detail how to perform various black magic for students. , operating principles and countermeasures.

But perhaps because the relationship was described in too much detail, some students actually learned related black magic.

This is absolutely not allowed by us. Anyone who dares to release black magic will be severely punished!

For example, they..."

Beckman turned to look at the students who had just performed the killing curse and shouted with a smile:

"Hey! You guys just violated school rules. I'm going to punish you by eating a whole roasted snow chicken tonight!"

As soon as these words came out, the students immediately saluted Beckman with laughter and said yes, and other students around him also burst into laughter.

Link and the other three looked at Beckman with extremely weird looks.

The snow chicken is a bird that looks like a quail but is larger.

It generally lives in high-altitude areas such as around Durmstrang. Its meat is firm and tender, making it a rare delicacy.

And now, Beckman is using it for punishment.

Is this punishment really not a reward?

"Don't doubt it, this is punishment!" Beckman said categorically. "The food I hate most is roasted snow chicken. It is simply the most terrifying food in the world. It is really appropriate to use it as the most punishing thing." But it’s too late!”

Hearing this, Link and the other three couldn't help laughing.

At this point, they all understood.

Beckman is using this method called suppression, but actually encouragement, to get students to learn black magic.

This can be quite effective in circumventing the suppression of Durmstrang by the International Federation of Wizards.

The principle is similar to, or even worse than, the grape bricks sold during Prohibition in the United States.

After all, if you buy the grape bricks and actually make them into wine, and you are caught revealing yourself, you will still be fined or even imprisoned.

And now the punishment the students are receiving after using black magic in Durmstrang is a real encouragement!

How many people don’t like to eat things like Gu Ding</span>Snow Chicken?

Link and Emily even thought that Beckman himself actually liked eating.

That's just an excuse to deal with the International Federation of Wizards.

As for the effect, Link can only say that although it is outrageous, it is indeed very common.

After all, there are too many weirdos in the magic world.

Those who dress in strange clothes, those who like to eat dirt to heal their wounds when they are sick, those who take off other people's arms and put them on their own...

Compared with that group of weirdos, Beckman's use of snow chickens to punish students is no big deal.

At least Beckman used his own approach to push others, and no one could tell what was wrong with him.

Of course, the most critical point lies in Link.

If Link were not the sole director of Durmstrang, and if Link were not now famous, the "International Federation of Wizards" might still veto this absurd approach.

Unfortunately, there is no if in this world.

The fact is that due to Link's existence, the "International Federation of Wizards" chose to turn a blind eye to this matter and walked down the steps created by Beckman.

"You really are a genius!"

Link clapped and sighed.

He had to admit that Beckman was very thoughtful and the methods he came up with were very effective.

"Thank you for the compliment. These are the most basic."

Beckman said with a smile, "Our Defense Against the Dark Arts education at Durmstrang is not only reflected in the prevention and response to black magic. We also teach students many hard-core and effective high-end coping methods. Let’s show it now… Bang!”

Another snap of fingers.

The students on the side immediately started to move, quickly divided into groups of two and stood on the opposite duel ring. After performing the wizard duel ceremony, they started fighting with each other.

This time they did not use high-damage black magic such as the Unforgivable Curse, but the most common combat spells such as the Disarming Curse and the Armor Protection Curse.

But their battle was still exciting.

Their spell casting speed, spell power and even shooting accuracy have reached the level of members of Hogwarts' elite DA army.

And they obviously often conduct such duel training, and already have quite a lot of actual combat experience. During the battle, they will not stand still like many students at Hogwarts and use magic spells to attack like a turn-based system. It will be mixed with frequent displacement and dodge movements, trying to use this physical movement to dodge the enemy's attack at a very low cost.

This is actually a relatively high-end combat technique.

In the magic world of the Republic of China, except for a few wizards, only those who have received professional military training at the striker level can use it.

Because of this violent movement of the body to dodge, it is very likely that the wand waving movement will be deformed, causing the spell to fail.

The key is.

Many students here have also mastered some silent spells.

This makes their attacks faster and more subtle.

If the current group of Durmstrang students were to have a fight with the students of Hogwarts, it is estimated that except for a very small number of the truly elite geniuses of the DA army, the rest would be defeated.

This is Durmstrang's advantage.

Durmstrang is a famous European magic school famous for teaching dark magic and training Grindelwald, the first Dark Lord.

There are basically no pure Muggle-born young wizards among the children who can study here.

Although this has reduced the overall number of students in Durmstrang and the probability of geniuses has dropped sharply, it has also made the average magic talent of the students at a higher level.

At the same time, these students and even their families generally do not reject fighting and black magic.

Many of them even expected Durmstrang to teach some terrifying black magic such as the Unforgivable Curse.

After all, it is not easy for ordinary people to learn such forbidden spells, and they are indeed powerful.

In addition, coupled with the bad and harsh climate environment around Durmstrang and the super-standard educational conditions now provided by Beckman, it is possible to educate so many students who are strong and good at fighting on a large scale.

"Well done, really good."

Two consecutive words came out of Link's mouth, which made Beckman and the many professors who came with him breathe a sigh of relief.

Compared to other magic schools, Durmstrang's structure is much simpler.

From a certain perspective, it can be said to be a purely 'commercial' education group that continues to create 'benefits' for Link, the only school director.

It's just that this kind of 'interest' is not just money, but students who can fight.

These professors can be equivalent to the executives within this 'education group', working for Link.

Therefore, Link's visit, in the view of the professors, is equivalent to the chairman coming to inspect the internal work of the group.

At the moment, Link seems satisfied, which is enough to make them happy.

Because this may at least represent subsequent investment and their benefits will not be reduced.

"Actually, to be honest, what you see now are not the best qualities of these children." After initially relaxing, Beckman's expression became serious again, "In my opinion, their best qualities are It’s about loyalty, loyalty to you!”

Link nodded slightly but said nothing.

Speaking of loyalty, Link, as a master of Legilimency, has indeed been able to feel himself surrounded by a huge amount of goodwill and warm emotions since entering Durmstrang Castle.

There is no doubt that these emotions basically all come from the students in front of them.

But this is actually a bit unreasonable.

Because in addition to constantly sending resources to Durmstrang for investment, Link himself does not come here often to cultivate his relationship with Durmstrang students. His focus in terms of emotional value has always been on Hogwart. tz.

So the reason why this happened is because Beckman did something?

Thinking this, Link looked at Beckman with inquiring eyes.

A mysterious and somewhat proud smile appeared on Beckman's lips.
