Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 924: Bad Lessons

Umbridge looks around from the podium and sees the look on everyone's face.

“I think you've all realized that there are a lot of problems with this course, and yet you'll be happy to know that they're about to be corrected. This year, we're going to be studying a well-planned, theory-centric, Ministry of Magic approved course on magic defense, so please copy these words. ”

She knocked on the blackboard again, and those two lines disappeared, replacing them with "course goals”.

l. Understand the basic principles of magic defense techniques.

2. Learn to identify situations where magic defense techniques can be used legally.

3. Evaluate the magic defense technique in the context of actual application.

All she heard in the classroom was the sand of a feather pen writing on parchment paper, and two or three minutes later, after each student had transcribed Professor Umbridge's three course goals, she went on to ask, "Does every student have a copy of Wilbert Slinka's Defensive Magical Theory? ”

“Yes, that's right!” There was a murmur in the class, indicating a positive voice.

“This isn't working, classmates. This isn't working. I think we need to do it again! Umbridge said, shaking his head," When I ask you a question, I want you to answer: Yes, Professor Umbridge; or: No, Professor Umbridge. Again: Does every classmate have a copy of Wilbert Slinka's Defensive Magic Theory? ”

“Yes, Professor Umbridge.” The whole class answered aloud.

“Good!” Umbridge said, "I want you to turn to page five, read chapter one, get started on the fundamentals, and don't turn to each other when you read. If you have finished, please continue with the next chapter. ”

The class remembered a noisy argument, which was a defense against the Dark Arts lesson linked to two sessions.

Listen to Umbridge. Want them to sit here all morning reading?

“Quiet!” Umbridge said, revealing tiny, pointy teeth in his mouth, "we are now reading and can talk after class if there are any problems. Also, I hope that you will raise your hands when you ask questions in my classroom in the future. ”

Her two loose-looking toad eyes stared at the crowd and calmed down instantly in the classroom.

Ivan would not stand up to Umbridge in class, nor would he have anything to talk to her about. He turned to page 5 of the Defense Against Magic Theory, not surprisingly, which was very boring, first of all by systematically describing what dark magic was and the corresponding defense against dark magic, white magic.

Black magic and white magic, they are not as distinct as black and white.

According to Wilbert Slinka, author of this book, black magic and white magic are different techniques and ideas for their own spiritual control, such as the use of a killing spell, which requires strong malice and killing intentions, and the use of a protective magic spell, which requires users to think back about happy things, generate joyful emotions, or have a strong protective ideation.

These things are already very basic for Ivan, and the book explains them in a very tedious way. They are all very far-reaching sentences. They are just as uninteresting as listening to Professor Benz's lecture. He looks at them and walks away and thinks about other things.

The rooster was silent in the classroom, next to Ivan, Colin stared at the same place in the book.

A lot of people haven't turned a page in a long time, and Umbridge doesn't seem to care.

She sat in the chair behind the podium, measuring every little wizard in the classroom one by one, wondering what she was thinking.

Just as Ivan stared at the book all morning, Harry, they had just finished their sobering magic history lesson, and Professor Bince dragged on the subject of the Giant War for an hour and a half.

If another teacher were to be replaced, the title would probably be more attractive, but Professor Bins, this ghost teacher is taunting himself with a constant tone. Why don't they let themselves read the book?

Probably, only Hermione can resist the hypnotic power of Bince's voice.

Everyone was relieved when they came out of the magic history class.

“What if I don't lend you my notes this year?” Hermione asked coldly.

She was very dissatisfied with Harry and Ron's performance in the classroom, and the two of them were not listening at all.

Ron began by passing notes with Lavender and later played a game of executioners with Harry on parchment paper.

“Then our Magic History 0.W.Ls will fail.” Ron said, "If you want to be blamed on your conscience, Hermione? ”

“Well, you deserve it!” She argued loudly, "You didn't listen to him at all, did you? ”

“We're trying," Ron said. "We just don't have a brain like you, you have the memory, the attention, you and Ivan are smarter than us, so don't talk about it, okay?

“Hmm, don't fill me with this soup.” Hermione said, but her expression eased slightly, "I don't know what happened to Evan, the first verse of that woman, what did you say she would teach? ”

“Perhaps, like Moody's, to show you black magic? ”

“That's impossible, she's not crazy, she won't do this crazy thing, it's not allowed by the Ministry of Magic. Besides, don't forget why she came to Hogwarts.” Hermione said, "She's representing Foggy to Hogwarts, and it's impossible to really teach us anything. ”

“I don't know, but if she had practiced in action, Ivan would certainly have had the opportunity to teach her a lesson.” Harry said.

They had been discussing the issue until Snape walked into the basement before rushing to shut up and calm down.

As soon as everyone saw Snape, they became silent.

Generally, as soon as Snape shows up, it's enough to silence the whole class.

Harry thought since Snape was a member of the Order of the Phoenix, it would be better for a few of them.

But he quickly found himself wrong, wrong out of the ordinary.

“Before we begin our class today, I think we need to remind you.” Snape walks to the podium and looks at them very hard and says, "Next June, you're going to take an important exam, when you're going to prove how much you've learned about the formulation and use of magic. Although a few people in this class do have mental retardation, I hope you all pass the o.w.Ls exam, or I'll be pissed off. ”

His eyes fell on Neville's face this time, and Neville sucked in a breath of cold air.
