Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Because of the opera house shooting, Charles Street saw a sharp decline in tourists as soon as it opened. Of course, it wasn't just Charles Street; the spellbreakers' arcane weapons had a huge impact on the entire wizarding world, an impact that was even more frightening to wizards than Voldemort's resurrection.

Voldemort was just one person. Although he had some followers who were murderers and thugs, if many wizards united to fight him, Voldemort would be outnumbered. Moreover, the secret weapons were so powerful that even Muggles could use the Avada Kedavra curse, and their range far exceeded that of the curse. For a time, wizards were all on edge, fearing that a Muggle with a gun would suddenly appear and shoot them.

However, a week later, wizards everywhere could no longer find these rune-inscribed guns. Even the Egyptian Society of Spellbreakers seemed to have vanished instantly. The wizarding community began to believe that the so-called spellbreakers and rune-inscribed guns were malicious rumors. As a result, the French Ministry of Magic even held a hearing. In the end, the wizarding councilors' conclusion was quite ridiculous: there were no so-called rune-inscribed guns. It was just a new type of black magic developed by a fugitive dark wizard that could make metal bullets fly at high speeds and cause damage.

Blanco was forced to change the bounty on the spellbreaker assassin to a bounty on a young female dark wizard, but the bounty only stated that the target was a young woman, without even specifying her race; the bounty was merely for show. Poor Woolf and Miller died almost in vain.

The number of visitors to the Magic Zoo has decreased significantly, but Bai Lin believes that they will get through this. The fairy staff, on the other hand, don't seem to care and continue working with high morale.

Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Bai Lin hurried back to Hogwarts to continue his teaching duties for the semester. However, whenever it was time for the Magical Creatures Protection class, many students would beg to escape the nightmare of the Blasttail and instead go to the zoo to do free work.

However, Bai Lin decided to spend this weekend at Hogwarts because not only him, but even Catherine had received Harry's invitation to watch the Quidditch Cup final, which he had been preparing for for a long time: Gryffindor versus Slytherin. These two houses often have classes together and are frequently in competition, and their values ​​and philosophies are vastly different. Harry and Malfoy's mutual animosity is practically a microcosm of the two houses, so it's time to settle all the old and new grudges.

Early in the morning, when the Gryffindor team entered the Great Hall, they were greeted with enthusiastic applause. Not only the Gryffindor students, but even the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff classmates cheered for them, instantly igniting Bai Lin's passion. Catherine, standing nearby, leaned over and said, "You ride your flying broomstick very well. You must be really good at Quidditch, right?"

Bai Lin rubbed his nose and said, "Actually, when I was in school... I played basketball most of the time... but if I had the chance, I'd like to try Quidditch too..."

"Maybe you could ride a dragon and play Quidditch!" Catherine teased.

"Great idea!" Bai Lin chuckled. "I'm going to form a Fire Dragons football team; maybe we can win the World Cup!"

Bai Lin and Catherine were chatting intimately, while Harry struck up a conversation with Cho Chang. However, Harry seemed to be blushing. Bai Lin couldn't help but think of his own junior high school days, those hazy little feelings, innocent and beautiful. But looking at Catherine beside him, who was sipping her soup, Bai Lin's eyes were full of love. If there was anything Bai Lin was most grateful for after transmigrating to the wizarding world, or what the Night Mentor called the "Sun God," it was that it allowed him to meet Catherine, an ordinary yet almost perfect girl.

At Wood's command, the team members finished their breakfast and walked out of the hall with cheerful steps. Everyone applauded again, and George and Fred responded to the supporters with whistles, not forgetting to promote the news that the current odds were 0.75:2.4... Bai Lin once suspected that the two of them had bet on Slytherin to win.

The students all finished breakfast early and rushed to the competition venue to grab their spots, but Bai Lin wasn't in a hurry at all. He was planning to sneak off to Old Blacksmith Addison while everyone was out of the castle to exchange for some equipment. Before, he wasn't very famous, and no one noticed him wandering the corridors of Hufflepuff. After all, Hufflepuff was crowded, and many students were taller than Bai Lin, so he was easily overlooked. But now, Bai Lin was incredibly popular at the school, and students often came to him with wizard cards asking for his autograph.

Bai Lin quickly placed an order, almost emptying all his Hogwarts contribution points that he had saved up for a long time. He asked Addison to make him a light armor that combined magical and physical defense, as well as an item that would help him use Apparition. With the last of his points, Bai Lin picked out a very exquisite necklace from the available stock: "Angel's Tear Necklace, Magic Power +5, Casting Speed ​​+5%".

Catherine was keeping watch for Bai Lin at the entrance of the corridor when she suddenly felt a chill on her neck. Bai Lin hugged her from behind and put a crystal-clear diamond necklace on her head. The main diamond was like a teardrop, emitting a faint golden light.

"Ah?" Catherine jumped in surprise. She had never seen such exquisite ornaments before, and it seemed that her magic power had been enhanced after wearing them.

Bai Lin rested his chin on her neck, kissed her cheek, and said, "I haven't given you a proper gift yet. Do you like it?"

Catherine stroked the necklace with obvious affection, then turned and kissed Bai Lin. They didn't stop until they heard Filch grumbling as he walked past the kitchen, apparently followed by Mrs. Pince. Filch glanced at Bai Lin with a complex expression.

Bai Lin felt a chill. This old lady had helped him a lot when he first arrived at Hogwarts, but she probably wasn't really interested in him.

Bai Lin felt it was about time, so he pulled Catherine to the stadium. The stadium was already filled with cheers, and the stands were almost full. Three-quarters of the spectators were wearing bright red roses, waving red flags with Gryffindor golden lion patterns, or holding banners that read "Go Gryffindor!" or "Gryffindor is invincible!"

Behind the Slytherin goalposts stood two hundred people wearing green ornaments, waving banners emblazoned with silver snakes. However, compared to the Gryffindor supporters, they were practically invisible. What amused Bai Lin most was that Professor Snape was also wearing a bright green Slytherin headdress, a gloomy smile on his face, as if to say, "I'm wearing a green hat and I'm proud of it."

"Gryffindor is on the field!" Lee Jordan, still the commentator, shouted, "Porter, Bell, Jason, Spinnett, the Weasley brothers, and captain Wood—it's widely considered to be the best team Hogwarts has had in years! Let's wait and see!"

"Professor Kelling! Come over here!" Bai Lin heard a voice and turned around. It was Cho Chang. She had reserved two seats for Bai Lin in the Ravenclaw stands and was waving to him enthusiastically.
