Take control of thunder and lightning from Hogwarts

Chapter 781 New Desperate Town
"Legendary props?"

"A rare spell?"

"A potion that can directly increase attributes? Is there such a thing in the world?"

The pupils of the little wizards lit up one by one, and their eyes widened in excitement. Anduin's words aroused endless reverie of everyone.

"The premise is that the dungeon can be cleared, and it is an official dungeon." Anduin added, "In addition, the point system is currently only a benefit within the club. Please keep it secret."

Adding reward exchange for everyone is mainly launched to stimulate the enthusiasm of young wizards for training, and it also borrows from the exchange model of the Silver Spear Dueling Club.

Of course, Anduin will not tell everyone that most of the prizes in the system are actually inventory products squeezed by Silver Flash Trading Company.

Among them are a large number of tactical equipment before the replacement. Of course, there will be some good things in it, but the difficulty of exchanging them is not low.

As for those spells, they were basically side-by-side spells he had collected from the silver spear. These spells were rather useless to Anduin, but it was a waste to leave them alone.

Only those potions can directly improve attributes as he said, after all, they are all by-products developed by Anduin using life energy when he researched the Sorcerer's Stone.

Although it costs almost nothing to Anduin, it is indeed very precious to the outside world.

In addition, these potions actually have certain flaws. They can only work on wizards with low attributes. Not to mention Anduin, adult wizards with strong physical fitness are not much different from ordinary tonics.

After this potion was developed, Anduin didn't pay much attention to it, and almost cleaned them up as defective products.

Later, it was Hogg who gave him the idea, so that he could use it reasonably.

To Anduin's exhortation, the little wizards also nodded repeatedly. They naturally knew what the professor meant, which meant that the point system, at least in the short term, could only be enjoyed by these club members.

Thinking that all these people are gearing up, they can't wait to rush into the new dungeon to flex their muscles.

After the dinner, Anduin no longer continued with the system-related issues, but checked the results of the summer training of the young wizards as in previous years. He was going to leave everyone a little bit of mystery.

After the gathering that night, to be honest, Anduin was not very satisfied with what everyone had gained in the past two months. Many young wizards did not follow his instructions at the end of last semester to train at all.

Sure enough, once they entered the vacation, these children began to let themselves go, but this was not surprising, after all, even Harry and Neville had relaxed a lot.

It's just that some of them couldn't even complete the spiritual training method according to the standard.

Of course, there were those who performed poorly, and there were also those who performed well. Among the twenty members of the club, only Percy, Hermione, and Draco were able to complete the daily standard training volume and even take the initiative to do extra training.

To be honest, seeing this result, Anduin was quite surprised. He could imagine Percy and Hermione. After all, these two children have always been very active and have the greatest desire to become stronger.

But Draco, as the eldest son of the Malfoy family, actually showed such diligence, which really made Anduin a little impressed, so Anduin couldn't help but pay more attention to this child anyway.

After finishing the club assembly, the young wizards officially started their Hogwarts life in the new school year.

In the first month of school, the little wizards suffered two blows.

One of them was this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts class. With his decent appearance and his status as a well-known writer, Lockhart won the admiration of many female students in the school, and at the same time gained the disgust of many male students.

But his class turned out to be a disaster, with a cage of Cornish elves released in the first class, causing chaos in the classroom.

Then Lockhart irresponsibly told Harry, Ron and Hermione to clean up the mess while he ducked back into his office.

In the following lessons, Lockhart not only spared no effort to brag about himself to the students, but let the little wizards brag about him in different ways.
This made most of the little wizards tireless, and many of them realized that the new professor was an idiot with a superficial appearance, and many of the female classmates who admired him had gradually changed their attitudes, including Ginny.

As Anduin's apple of the eye, Ginny has actually met many outstanding people with her godfather, but she has never met someone who is so famous and famous like Lockhart.

It's a pity that many people still have illusions about this new professor, such as Hermione, who firmly believes that the other party is a hidden wizard, because the heroic deeds in Lockhart's works are too It's so real that it's hard to imagine it's made up.

Besides Lockhart, another thing that hit the students hard was Anduin's new dungeon [Town of Despair].

The strength of this dungeon can no longer be simply described as difficult.

The gloomy environment in Hopeless Town, the vast area, the harsh setting of fear value, the enemies that appear in strange ways, the complicated task process, and the extremely high intensity of monsters leave a deep impression on everyone who enters for the first time. shadow of heart.

Therefore, in the first week of the beginning, there was not a single team that successfully cleared the dungeon in Hogwarts, and most people were cleared out of the dungeon without even seeing the second stage.

Even Harry's team, who had made full preparations in advance, was no exception. When they searched for the third apocalypse document in the first mission, the team whose equipment had not yet formed was completely wiped out by a large number of monsters.

Even after they were all killed in battle and sent out of the dungeon, they almost didn't react.

Among them, Harry, Neville, and Hermione could clearly perceive that the difficulty of the dungeon has not become more difficult than the previous entry.

But when they faced those enemies again, the pressure they felt was maddening.

After a few people studied the replay carefully, they finally realized where the problem was.

First of all, for Harry and his party, they were able to stumble through the level on the spot, or to carry the mission to the final stage, in fact, they mainly relied on Snape's help to support them.

It should be said that Harry and the others had underestimated Snape's strength and his importance to himself and others in the dungeon.

Due to Snape's powerful reaction and combat power, as well as his superb ability to cast spells, he was able to clear most obstacles before everyone realized the danger.

Especially the extremely destructive spell that Snape used on the spot, which could quickly and large-scale harvest the enemy.

Therefore, by the time Harry and the others faced the enemy directly, the danger had been weakened a lot.

When everyone entered again, they discovered that those [Devil Servants] who seemed to have ordinary combat effectiveness could explode into exaggerated combat effectiveness after the number reached a certain scale.

This made it impossible for the few people who hadn't finished arming to stand up.

At the same time, they also found that due to several changes Anduin added to [Town of Despair], the pace of the dungeon was much faster than last time.

This can greatly shorten the challenge time of each team, but it also caused a lot of problems.

In the past in [Desperate Town], the most time-consuming things were actually rushing and killing fear at the bonfire.

In the new version of [Town of Despair], the longer the survivor stays, the faster the increase in fear value will be gradually accelerated, and the natural growth rate will be increased by 10% almost every 50 minutes.

In order to solve this problem, Anduin shortened the time for the fire source to reduce the fear value. Now it only needs to stay by the campfire for about 1 minute to clear the fear value.

At the same time, Anduin also added a large number of cars for them to travel, and he also thoughtfully placed a driving tutorial in the car.

But even so, the little wizards couldn't get started so quickly. When they entered for the first time, they wasted a lot of time just learning to drive a vehicle.

Therefore, in the subsequent battles, the increase in fear value is ridiculously fast, and it is easy to fight, and teammates will be possessed by demons.

And because the pace of the dungeon has been accelerated several times, they can't get too much rest time. Like the previous time, when resting at the campfire or on the road, they can actually recover a lot of state.

But now there is no way to do it. Due to time constraints, they often meet the enemy when their state is not complete, which is why it is very difficult for everyone to fight.

At the same time, the horror atmosphere in [Desperate Town] brought a lot of psychological shadows to everyone this time. Before Snape was by his side, in fact, he was also invisibly emboldening Harry and the others. It was like having parents. The feeling of relying on.

But after entering this time, they can clearly feel their own helplessness, even if they have experienced it once before.

Among them, Draco had the most violent reaction. After this guy went to [Town of Despair], he had nightmares for several days in a row, and his whole person became quite dazed.

Even Harry's team who had experienced [Town of Despair] was in this situation, let alone the others.

There are many young wizards who, after experiencing [Town of Despair] once, are too scared to take another step. Even when they go to the training ground to watch the live broadcast, they have to gather together in groups to encourage each other.

No way, that ghost place is really scary.

And the performance of those senior students was not much better than that of the lower grade students. The first two challenges were all failures.

It wasn't until a month passed that Percy led his team to complete the first customs clearance of [Town of Despair].

At the same time, due to the well-known difficulties of the new dungeon, the students attached great importance to this wasteland reclamation. On the day of customs clearance, more than half of Hogwarts students gathered in the live broadcast plaza, and they all cheered for Percy's team.

Until a few days later, everyone still talked about the grand occasion that day. The students had been suffering for a long time. They were all looking forward to a team that could break through the barrier that had troubled everyone for a long time.

Therefore, when Percy's team fought until there were only two people left, and managed to defend the [Exorcism Book] within the specified time, cheers erupted in the live broadcast square for several minutes.

At this moment, Percy, Penello, Wood and others almost became the heroes in the hearts of the students in the school.

Even in Hogwarts Castle, the continuous cheers and shouts could be heard.

This made all the professors wonder, what kind of monster Anduin had created to make those little wizards more excited than Voldemort's death.

And Lockhart, the showy guy, after hearing the bursts of cheers, actually licked his face and ran to the training ground to catch Percy's enthusiasm, and even tried to give a plausible speech on the training ground.

But the little wizards who were excited didn't want to eat this trick. In the name of celebration, they sprinkled the butterbeer and various candies in their hands to Lockhart.

He made the handsome professor look like a clown, and Lockhart could only flee back to the castle in despair.

At this time, in the principal's office, Dumbledore also smiled and lay down by the window, watching the noisy scene in the distance.

"Hogwarts hasn't been this lively for a long time." Dumbledore turned his head and looked at Anduin behind him, "I didn't expect the dungeon you made to be so popular."

"It's just a different kind of toy, and their enthusiasm will fade in time." Anduin smiled and shook his head, then looked at the old man puzzled, "By the way, that Lockhart just looks like a scumbag Yeah, I didn't even see him cast spells a few times during his lectures."

"But the stories written in that guy's book are serious, but they don't seem to have anything to do with him at all."

During this period of time, Anduin had read Lockhart's book, and the content in it did not seem to be made up, but when he thought of that guy, he always felt a sense of disobedience.

"Lockhart is actually a very smart kid, and he is smarter than most of his classmates, but his biggest shortcoming is that he is unwilling to try unless he is the best one." Dumbledore said with some emotion.

"Lockhart can achieve good results. In fact, as long as he works hard, he may achieve his own career, although it may not achieve his declared ambition."

"So he let his vanity get the better of him, and he didn't study for an education, but to gain attention for himself."

"Until now, he had grown accustomed to using deceit to gain attention for himself, tricking accomplished wizards and witches into revealing their greatest deeds as he traveled, and wiping their memories afterward."

"That's how his works came about, and the content was real, but it wasn't his own."

"And I happen to know two wizards whose memories were wiped by Lockhart, so I know exactly what happened." Dumbledore sighed softly.

Anduin nodded suddenly, and then looked at Dumbledore in confusion, "If that's the case, then you still let him enter Hogwarts? What can you learn from this vain philistine?"

"As long as you put him in an ordinary school life, his lies will be exposed naturally." Dumbledore smiled slightly, "and learn a lot from a bad teacher, such as what not to do, don't what kind of person to be."
