The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

"Link, are we late?"

Cedric and John pushed the door open.

Link nodded to them, and naturally turned his gaze to Sceffen, Newland and the others behind them.

Sceffen and Newland were still the same, one had a righteous face, and the other had a smirk on his face, making it hard to guess what they were really thinking.

But different from the last time, this time the Kennedy brothers and sisters came with two traceless stretching spell bags.

To be precise, it is tossing...

Seeing Big Kennedy whistling and swinging the bag, Link's face turned dark, and Cedric and the others also glanced and winked from time to time, looking very curious.

"Don't be ridiculous, take it here quickly."

Link said angrily.

It was said that Big Kennedy stopped his movements, and said with a smile while putting the non-marking stretch bag on the coffee table:

"Your Excellency Link Foley, this time we, brother and sister, have successfully completed the task you gave us. You must not break your promise to us."

"It won't be your fault. You can move freely for the next half month, and the rest of the funds will belong to you." Link said, "But today you still have to stay here honestly."

Hearing that the Kennedy brothers and sisters were overjoyed at first, they turned their heads and were about to run away. After listening to Link's next words, the brows that had just been raised just now were pulled down again, and finally yawned and sat on the side seat.

Seeing their appearance, everyone focused on the two traceless stretching spell bags again.

They all knew that Link had given the Kennedy brothers and sisters a large sum of Galleons for research and development last time, and what was in those two pockets must be the finished product.

But just when Cedric was about to ask, the door of the Room of Response opened again.

"Huh! Come in quickly, everyone, keep your voice down, don't let anyone find out!"

Hermione's suppressed shout sounded first, and then everyone saw Harry's trio leading George, Fred and a large group of students into the Response Room.

After everyone came in, Emily and Qiu Zhang, who were sent by Link to pick them up, came in vigilantly and closed the door.

Compared with Cedric and others, this group of people seemed frivolous and noisy.

They gathered together in twos and threes, looking around and talking non-stop.

Especially George and Fred.

The two showed great enthusiasm for everything in the Responsive Room, bluffing like country folks entering the city.

Compared to the student organizations that gathered secretly, they were more like tourists.

But Link noticed.

This group of people is nearly 50% less than the previous rally.

It seemed that half of the people were intimidated by Umbridge's announcement today, and they didn't dare to get involved with Link.

"Link, everyone is here."

Hermione pulled Harry and Ron up to Link, lowered her head and said, it seemed that there were too few people here today.

Link nodded at them, glanced at the group of students who were still laughing and laughing, but didn't stop, just opened a slightly smaller non-marking stretch pocket on the coffee table and poured it out.

clatter——

Nearly a hundred golden coins collided with the marble coffee table, making a crisp and pleasant sound as they bounced.

The students were attracted by the sound, and after turning their heads to look, they could no longer look away.

In just a split second, the entire Room of Response fell silent.

Everyone just felt that there was a golden light in front of them, and they couldn't care about anything.

In fact, it wasn't just the students, even a guy like Cedric who wasn't short of money was startled dazed when he saw so many gold coins.

It was as if Newland's eyes had been glued to the pile of gold coins.

Link slowly got up from the sofa.

Dozens of eager eyes cast over in an instant.

They didn't understand what Link was trying to do, but that didn't stop them from fantasizing about some good things.

Link chuckled at this, he didn't even care about the gold coins on the coffee table, and said along with the silent crowd:

"I called you here today for two reasons. One is to tell you that our self-study organization has a name, and it is called the D.A. Army. The other is..."

"Dumbledore's Army!?" Harry's strange cry interrupted Link's speech, and Hermione and John glared at him dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Harry quickly smiled awkwardly and waved his hands:

"I mean it's a great name! Isn't that old toad Umbridge afraid of Dumbledore? Our name is just right!"

As soon as the remark came out, Ron, who was on the sidelines, also excitedly began to echo it.

This made Hermione very angry, just about to scold these two guys, but Link waved his hand and continued:

"The second is to officially start our Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Time is precious, so let's not talk nonsense, let's start practicing now.

I think the first thing to do is disarm, which is the disarming spell. I think you all should know. "

"It's just..." a Gryffindor boy with a prefect badge hanging on his chest said coyly, "The Disarming Charm doesn't seem like a particularly strong spell, does it? Can it really deal with the Dark Lord?"

"You think the Disarming Curse is too weak? The Killing Curse is strong enough, right? But do you dare to use it?" Link sneered, "Besides, whether a spell is strong or not depends on the wizard, not the magician. The curse itself!"

After saying that, Link flicked his wand lightly, and a scarlet beam of light suddenly passed through the gap in the crowd, hitting an alchemy puppet behind with precision.

Bang——

With the violent explosion sound, the red light soared into the sky.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw that the alchemy puppet had been blown into fragments all over the place, leaving only two legs standing there.

A series of exclamations began to sound from the crowd.

At first, the Gryffindor boy who asked the question blushed with shame, bowed his head and said nothing.

As for Sceffen and Newland, they looked at Link in disbelief.

The Disarming Curse is also their forte, so they understand that the Disarming Curse is essentially an auxiliary control spell whose main purpose is to knock down the enemy's weapons, and it really isn't too powerful in terms of power.

Of course, they have indeed heard that the disarming spell will increase in power due to the size and intensity of the magic power output by the caster.

For example, the Disarming Curse issued by a master like Professor Snape, let alone a weapon, might even blow the enemy himself into the air.

But even for a master like Snape, the power of the Disarming Curse is just that.

But now Link's disarming spell directly blew up the doll...

That is a target doll made entirely of alchemy alloys!

Link used it, I'm afraid it wasn't a thunderbolt explosion!

"Now, do some people think that the Disarming Curse is too weak and don't want to learn it?"

Just when everyone was shocked, Link's voice sounded.

With the previous demonstration, no one dared to refute this time, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Link smiled with satisfaction and said:

"Then start practicing. Harry, Hermione, Cedric, and Newland will help teach you. In addition, I can understand that you want to learn advanced magic psychology. After a while, I will let Harry and Hermione teach you Patronus cursed."

As soon as this remark came out, there was another exclamation in the crowd.

Perhaps in many people's minds, the Patronus Charm is indeed lacking in practicality, but it is indeed a high-level spell, and it is also a very symbolic high-level spell.

Few people present did not know the name of this spell.

Especially since they had only experienced Dementors two years ago.

It's just that Harry was a little anxious when he heard the words.

He ran out of the crowd in a hurry, grabbed Link's arm and whispered:

"Link, are you kidding me? Let me teach them the Patronus Charm?"

"What's the matter?" Link raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember that Lupine taught you guys? Didn't you also use the Patronus Charm to drive away the dementors this summer?"

"But my level is far from reaching the point where I can teach others!"

"Then work hard to improve your level. We always have to teach them the Patronus Charm. If you don't want to go, do you still want me to go?"

Hearing what Link said, the expression on Harry's face froze.

Of course he couldn't let Link play in person.

Because Link can't cast the Patronus Charm at all!

Back then, they suspected that Link was a dark wizard because of this incident, and there was a lot of misunderstanding.

Now being mentioned by Link, Hareton felt embarrassed and couldn't say anything.

Link shook his head, and continued to speak loudly to the crowd:

"That's it, everyone, start training quickly."

Hermione and Harry were a little overwhelmed by this.

Feeling the gazes of everyone around them, the nervous palms of the two student professors began to sweat.

Fortunately, there was an experienced student union president like Cedric on the scene.

Under Cedric's organization, the students were not divided into teams of two, and they took turns throwing disarming spells at each other.

Cedric and Hermione were constantly patrolling the arena.

This is to correct the wrong spellcasting process of the students at any time, and it is also to prevent possible dangers that may arise at any time.

After all, magic is something that can cause big trouble if you operate it carelessly.

For example, Gryffindor has a strange thing, any spell will explode when he releases it in his hand.

I wish he hadn't come this time...

Cedric sincerely looked forward to it in his heart.

It's a pity that Lady Luck doesn't seem to have much affection for wizards.

Just as he finished speaking, an explosion sounded from a corner not far away.

Cedric raised his brows, and hurriedly pushed aside the people who were in the way, only to see a Gryffindor boy standing there with a dark face, apparently he had been blown upright.

Fortunately, there was nothing serious about the person, it just looked miserable.

"Oh! Merlin!"

Cedric couldn't help but patted his forehead and wailed.

He felt that their d.a. army didn't seem to need any peripheral organization.

Because not only the one that just exploded, but also the disarming spells of the others were messed up.

Those who can’t recite the spell clearly, those who swing the stick in the wrong posture, those who can’t aim correctly, those who fail inexplicably...

Anyway, the whole Room of Requirement is in a mess.

There are wands flying around, and debris dropped by accidental hits.

Of course, the chaotic sound of chanting mantras and the faint screams mixed in were also indispensable.

Although many people here are still focusing on the pile of Galleons on the coffee table, this level is really too weak, right?

Cedric looked to the other side with a sad face, but saw that Link was sitting with the Kennedy brothers and sisters watching the play with great interest, and had no intention of coming up to help.

This made Cedric not only raise his head and sigh.

...

After a full hour, this farce-like training was finally over.

Everyone was assembled in front of Link, except for the shameless ones like George and Fred, most of them lowered their heads, a little embarrassed.

They also know how poorly they performed.

Link laughed:

"Don't be discouraged, isn't this the first rally? I'm already very satisfied if I can do this. And I believe that you will become stronger and stronger in the future.

Okay, I won't talk nonsense, each of you takes one of the gold coins on the coffee table. "

After the words were finished, George and Fred, who were at the front of the crowd, cheered immediately.

Many people in the crowd also showed joy.

Link's teasing eyes swept over them one by one, and after they gradually subsided, he said again:

"Are you thinking wrong? These are not Galleons, but tokens specially made for you by the Kennedy brothers and sisters."

After speaking, Link glanced behind him, Big Kennedy got up reluctantly, took a gold coin and said to everyone:

"Did you see the numbers on the edge of the gold coin? On the real gold galleon, these numbers are just a serial number, representing the goblin who cast this gold galleon.

But the numbers on these fake Galleons will change to show when the next meeting will be held.

When the above time changes, the coin will heat up. If you store it close to your body, you can easily detect it at the first time. "

"Did you hear clearly? This is to inform you of the time of the next meeting." Link continued, "As soon as I confirm the time, I will modify the number on the coin, and you will come and gather according to the time. This is enough Hidden and safe. Well, now come and take one by one."

Although everyone was a little disappointed, they queued up to receive their coins out of curiosity about the fake Galleon.

Some unwillingly took the gold coins, and even deliberately bit them with their teeth, making the girls at the scene disgusting to death.

Although Cedric, John and others also took the distributed gold coins, they just stuffed them into their pockets indifferently.

They are clear.

Previously, the Kennedy brothers and sisters brought two pockets with no trace of stretching spells, but now one is full of fake Galleons, so what is inside the other?

They exchanged a few glances with each other, and they all stood quietly aside.

They believed that Link must have other things to explain to them in a while.

And as they expected, after distributing the fake Galleons, Link got up and announced:

"Okay, now that you've got the fake Galleon, go back to sleep and come back when the time for the next meeting comes.

And, Cedric, you stay here. "
