Hogwarts Sneakers

Quiet, no commotion as expected.

Professor Quirrell was confused and exclaimed again: "There is a troll in the basement!"

But he still didn't get the big commotion he expected. He originally wanted to take advantage of the commotion to find the Philosopher's Stone!

"Professor Quirrell!" Someone shouted: "Is this the new Defense Against the Dark Arts practical exam?"

"Ah?" Professor Quirrell looked confused, what is this?

"The new Defense Against the Dark Arts practical exam? Haha, I'm so motivated now!"

"Troll, is it that stupid mountain troll guy? Let me do it. I will definitely get full marks this time!"

The residual heat of the phased test has not dissipated, and they have not had enough of the actual combat test of the Defense Against Dark Arts class. They only faced the flame dog with a danger level of 2X, which was not challenging at all, and they did not even feel nervous. .

Now a giant monster suddenly appeared, and most of them started to move around.

Mountain troll, danger level 3X, just right to try to deal with it!

Not only the first-year students, but also the upperclassmen, they were a little itchy too.

After witnessing the actual test, they discovered for the first time that the test could be so interesting, and they all wanted to take part!

"Exam! Exam! Exam! These people are so smart!"

Professor Quirrell gritted his teeth, his plan failed.

I originally planned to pretend to be faint, but now I can only stand in the hall in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, the door was opened again, and Hagrid opened the door and came in, complaining: "Who raised that troll? Even if you raise it, you can't let it go in Hogwarts. It's so dangerous. I knocked it out." , please remember to deal with it later."

Carl glanced at Professor Quirrell and mourned for him in his heart. The plan failed completely.

When the students heard Hagrid's words, they all expressed regret that they would not have a chance to show off their talents.

"But Professor Quirrell, he was actually scared by the troll, eh..."

"Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, I really doubt that we will be able to defend against dark magic in the future?"

Without the troll, the students turned their attention to Professor Quirrell and expressed concerns about their studies.

Professor Quirrell is not a qualified professor in any aspect!

Dumbledore said: "I broke in accidentally. When the Halloween dinner is over, you take it back and put it back in the Forbidden Forest. You sit down first, Professor Quirrell, and so do you."

He knew the reason for Hagrid's late arrival. After clearing his grievances, he could use the wand normally, so he went to Ollivander's Wand Shop in Diagon Alley and took the previous wand for repair, but Professor Quirrell? , it’s not clear.

Dumbledore and Snape looked at each other, seeing suspicion in each other's eyes.

Although Hogwarts cannot be said to be without danger, it is not something that just any troll can break into.

Then contact the mysterious person who opened the secret room, Professor Quirrell, there are a lot of suspicions!

Hagrid nodded to Carl and Harry and sat down at the guest of honor seat.

After everyone calmed down, Professor McGonagall continued: "Now, let's invite Mr. Joyce to the stage to speak."

Klaus was stunned and said, "You are going to speak on stage, why haven't you told us about it?"

Edwin and others also looked puzzled.

Karl shrugged and said, "You will all know it anyway."

Edwin gritted his teeth: "Damn it, he tricked me!"

Even so, they still applauded wildly, after all, this is their best friend!

Not only Slytherin, but also Harry, Ron, Hermione, Parvati and others at the Gryffindor table were applauding wildly.

"Am I dazzled? Haven't Slytherin and Gryffindor always been at odds with each other?"

"Yes, when did their relationship become so good?"

The Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students all looked confused and expressed their incomprehension.

It's great that Slytherin and Gryffindor don't fight each other. How can they applaud each other?

Carl touched the speech in his pocket. After yesterday's Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall told him about speaking on stage. However, he glanced at Malfoy, who was doubting his life, and saw his friends applauding him. When Myrtle walked out of the girls' bathroom, he crumpled his speech into a ball. At this time, he had to say something that followed his heart. The speech was too official.

Dumbledore exclaimed: "You are excellent, Joyce."

Karl said: "Thank you."

After changing places with Professor McGonagall, Carl said: "Principal, professors, and classmates, good evening everyone. I am honored to stand here and share with you some of my superficial thoughts. This idea is based on the question that Malfoy just asked me. , What is the meaning of Slytherin? I think this question also applies to other colleges."

"The courage of Gryffindor, the intelligence of Ravenclaw, the simplicity of Hufflepuff, and the ambition of Slytherin. Each house has its own characteristics. Slytherin has always adhered to the theory of blood, but I think times have changed today.”

"This conclusion is based on my judgment of the main contradiction at this stage."

"At this stage, my main conflict has changed!"

"I like the history of magic and Muggle history. By exploring the general laws of history and combining it with Slytherin's situation, I feel that the main contradiction in Slytherin's past was the contradiction between the pure-blood class and the non-pure-blood class, and this main contradiction The conflict is limited to the magical world.”

"But with the development of the times, the boundaries between pure blood and non-pure blood in the magic world have begun to blur. History has given the answer. In the end, there will only be one group left in the magic world, and that is the wizards!"

At the Slytherin table, the pure-blood wizard clenched his fists. He didn't expect Karl to make this argument again!

Some people couldn't even sit still and wanted to refute.

But he was stopped by prefect Farley: "Listen to him, we have all studied the history of magic and Muggle history, we should be able to feel it!"

Carl saw the restlessness at the Slytherin table, motioned to Farley, and continued: "The population of the wizarding world is seriously insufficient. There are only 50 first-year students in Hogwarts this year. Based on this, we can judge that the number of pure-blood families will only increase. Therefore, if you don’t want to cut off your bloodline, you can only marry with other families, but there are only 28 pure-blood families, and many of them have given up their insistence on pure blood. How many true pure-blood families are there today?”

"Even if there are true pure bloods, for those of you who still insist on pure bloods, how many generations do you think we can pass on? Being restrained by pure bloods will eventually lead to the severance of the bloodline and become a page in the history books."

Silence fell upon even the most restless Slytherin table at this moment.

What Karl said was not obscure, and they could all understand it. Even if they didn't understand, they could understand it through other people's explanations. It was precisely because they understood that they knew what Karl said was right!

"The problems faced by pure-blood wizards are also the problems faced by the magic world in the future."

"One day, we will get out of the magical world."

"One day, we are going to communicate with the Muggle world!"

"So what we are facing now is a new era, and the main contradiction we face is the contradiction between the wizard class and the Muggle class!"

"The bloodline conflicts have long since passed. In the face of the new era, they are not worth mentioning at all!"
