Chapter 332: Organizing for Actual Combat
Xie Lin smiled bitterly and said: "I would like to rest, but this morning I reviewed last night's experience and calculated the current situation, and my heart can't calm down. It's not that I don't want to rest..." He said He shook his head helplessly and said, "Time waits for no one..."
"Let's not talk about this anymore," Xie Lin looked at Daphne and Sulf with interest, "Let's talk about you guys. What happened? Why did you two... suddenly start fighting?"
Daphne opened her little cherry mouth and didn't know where to start.
Instead, Sulf took the lead and spoke calmly: "Xie Lin (she cannot call master in front of outsiders), according to your instructions, we have been training the members of the Dragon Head Organization diligently, and there are also battles between members. Practice, but I think this closed training cannot achieve the results you expect, so Miss Greengrass and I have differences..."
"Well, what you said makes sense," Xie Lin nodded slightly, "What is your proposal?"
"I suggested taking the members to the Forbidden Forest to participate in actual combat exercises, but Daphne disagreed." Sulf curled her lips and glanced in Daphne's direction.
"Xie Lin, the Forbidden Forest is too dangerous for them -" Daphne quickly explained: "Although I know that you have Silver Fang as a backup in the Forbidden Forest, and there are other arrangements, but there are unknown things in the Forbidden Forest. The threat is too broad. Once an accident occurs, the safety of members cannot be guaranteed, and the existence of the organization is more likely to be exposed. "
"I think..." Daphne said carefully, "Actually, we don't need to take such risks, especially during the school day at Hogwarts... Principal Dumbledore's spies are everywhere in Hogwarts Castle and the Forbidden Forest. , I dare say that he is by no means ignorant of Mianlong Society. At most, he thinks that I am making connections and building momentum for you, and is secretly monitoring my every move—"
"Practical experience is indeed important, and I deeply agree with what Sulf said, but -" Daphne paused, then looked at Sherrin and said: "But with such a large-scale personnel transfer, it is difficult to hide it from Dumbledore. Impossible - I think, Sherlin, you don’t want Principal Dumbledore to discover the existence of the Sleeping Dragon Society, do you?”
Xie Lin nodded, gently closed his eyes, and quietly thought about the two girls' arguments.
Daphne's concerns are indeed not without purpose - although she is the leader of the Sleeping Dragon Society, she is just a hands-off shopkeeper. The development of the entire Sleeping Dragon Society from the beginning of its construction to today's point is actually inseparable from Daphne's wholeheartedness and dedication. Ye's efforts, she spent countless energy and time to complete it, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a painstaking effort.
For Daphne, the rise and fall of the Sleeping Dragon Society, its stability, concealment, and the safety of its members are her top priorities. Now, Sleeping Dragon Society has just started to take shape and is beginning to take shape. Once Dumbledore discovers it, the consequences will be unpredictable. She doesn't want to take this risk.
However, if the little wizards are not tempered by actual combat experience, this is absolutely impossible——
Schelling is very aware of how turbulent and chaotic the entire British wizarding world will be in the next few years, and how little wizards will inevitably face battles with live ammunition.
At that time, a slightly slower on-the-spot reaction or a slight error in judgment may have fatal consequences.
Sulf, on the other hand, is on the contrary. Although she has transformed into a human form, she still cannot get rid of the cold-blooded nature of snakes. For her, humans except Sherrin are just tools, and everything is a tool. To serve Schelling's ultimate purpose.
Therefore, the actual combat ability of the members is her primary consideration. There is no need to consider the little wizard who cannot be a helper.
After weighing it in his mind for a long time, Xie Lin opened his eyes and said to Daphne: "Well, you are right. It is not appropriate for Sleeping Dragon Society to be shown in front of others at this moment. Do you have any good ideas?"
Daphne shook her head slightly and said: "I don't have any good ideas. Maybe this plan should be postponed - the holidays are in a few days, and we can wait until the school holidays to gather outside - The Pig Monster in Norfolk County Hunting in the forest, or even the Silver Spear's test level in Diagon Alley are good choices..."
Xie Lin nodded first, then shook his head.
"My schedule this holiday is already full of plans, and it is impossible to participate in Mianlong Society's activities - and my enemies have been exposed. Although they will not appear openly in front of the public, the potential dangers cannot be underestimated. ." Xie Lin said seriously. With his own strength, he is not afraid of Voldemort and Morgan, not to mention that they still need to hibernate to accumulate strength.
However, if they used assassination, kidnapping and other methods against Daphne, Astoria and the others, Sherlin shuddered just thinking about this possibility.
Having said that, even if the development of this dimensional world has deviated from the trajectory of the original world, Voldemort and Morgan should still not start a war in the short term.
They simply do not have the strength to confront the magic regimes around the world.
Just like in the original work, they first disintegrate and manipulate the Ministry of Magic, wait until the time is right, and successfully control the British Ministry of Magic before revealing their power to the public - this is their optimal solution.
Therefore, Xie Lin does not need the members of Sleeping Dragon Society to conduct cruel actual combat trials now. They still have time——
Let's boldly assume that the starting point of the war is the Battle of the Astronomy Tower and the death of Dumbledore in the original book, then it will be at least two years away from now.
"Let's put this matter aside for now-" Xielin looked at Daphne and said softly: "I always know how much effort you have put into the Sleeping Dragon Society..."
"I think," Xielin first looked up at Sharfu, then swept his eyes across the little wizards in the audience, and said loudly: "At this stage, it is too early to conduct actual combat trials-"
"We still have a lot of time-" Xielin smiled slightly with his mouth curved: "According to the information I received, our Defense Against the Dark Arts class next year will be purely theoretical teaching-"
"Ah!" Many little wizards exclaimed. This semester has not yet ended. How can Xielin know the content of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class next year so quickly? Of course, Xielin's reputation is there. In the Sleeping Dragon Society, he is a god in everyone's heart, and no one will question his judgment.
"Yes," Sherin said firmly, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Ministry of Magic will intervene in the teaching of Hogwarts, and Dumbledore may not be able to stay in Hogwarts for a long time. That will be the best opportunity for us to conduct practical trials. Now-"
"Practical experience is important," Sherin said in a deep voice with bright eyes, "but the most important thing for us at this stage is to accumulate strength-I want you, yes, each of you to master at least 20 kinds of combat magic, and must be able to cast them skillfully-I mean the skills of casting spells quickly in a very short time, and the magic effect and accuracy must meet the most stringent high standards!"
"Daphne!"
"I'm here!" Daphne stepped forward and responded.
"You are responsible for teaching each little wizard my spellcasting method according to their characteristics-remember, don't teach them in a holistic way, but teach them according to their characteristics such as skill flow and speed flow-"
"Understood!"
"Sarfu!"
"I'm here!" Sarfu responded in a charming voice.
"You are responsible for dividing them into groups of 3-4 people and helping them select the combat magic they need to master - Stunning Spell, Armor Spell, Fire Spell, etc. are just the basics. I need them to at least master more advanced applications, such as Sonic Boom Spell and Flash Spell, okay?"
"Leave it to me!" Sharfu glanced at Daphne, "I will definitely do better than anyone else."
Daphne also glared back, and the air where the two women's eyes met seemed to produce invisible lightning.
"Ahem..." Xie Lin coughed lightly with a little embarrassment. He already understood - Daphne probably guessed what Sharfu was about, but she didn't publicly attack her for her own image.
Thinking of this, Xie Lin's scalp was a little numb. It seemed that it was time for him to think of a way to make a few girls happy.
Alas, excellent boys always have a lot of troubles - Xie Lin thought a little bit.
