Chapter 737 New Professor and Surprise

A few minutes ago…

"Sorting Hat, do you know what worries a school the most?"

"Teaching accidents - or in other words, due to the words and deeds of professors, extremely serious damage has been caused to students or important teaching resources and facilities... When this conflict breaks out, all quarrels and confrontations will be temporarily put on hold..."

In the dark world of the Hat, whispers from the white-haired devil echo in the Sorting Hat's mind.

"Legilimency can only target people and cannot read the thoughts of magical creatures. This is also the core guarantee of the show - if you don't want Hogwarts to become a battlefield, then the most appropriate response at this time is chaos and chaos. The madness of the order..."

"In short, please remember: don't respond! Don't respond! Don't respond!"

"As for me……"

Elena's lake-blue eyes flickered for a moment, and instantly turned into a cold and absolutely rational look.

Or, to put it more colloquially – the legendary Sage Mode.

As a mixed-blood Veela, the bewitching Third-Eye Demon King, and the Fairy Queen of Gringotts, this acting skill can be said to be an innate ability for her, especially with her growth over the past year, she is now even more comfortable with it. .

More importantly……

Lies will form an extremely terrible inertia.

From the moment the Sorting Hat compromised, the future path was almost determined. As Grindelwald taught, a true devil never bothers to use force to coerce others...even if the other person is just a hat.

However, the Sorting Hat has no way of peeking into the subsequent content.

After the last paragraph flashed through her mind, Elena cleared her mind and began to deduce mathematical theorems one by one.

Danilova Alexei verified her previous thoughts. Even the Sorting Hat with the wisdom of the four founders will still be limited by the constraints of time and knowledge when facing the most brilliant pearl in the crown of human wisdom. .

At this point, whether it is the Sorting Hat, Dumbledore, or even all wizards of this era, they are the same.

…

"Elena, can you hear me?"

Dumbledore's eyes stayed on Elena's blue eyes for a second or two, and then he took the initiative to look away.

The old wizard sighed and rubbed his brows slightly tiredly. A look of helplessness appeared on his face - with a small success in Occlumency and a mathematical model comparable to the ancient evil gods, he became more and more sympathetic to the Sorting Hat. situation.

Compared to him who can actively "disconnect", the Legilimency solidified on the Sorting Hat cannot be actively stopped.

On the other hand, Elena, who is the target of sorting, is obviously not feeling well either. If nothing else, based on some strange ancient magic stimulation that originated in the morning, the girl's mind must now be filled with all kinds of troublesome things. Information.

"Huh? I'm...yawning——"

Elena nodded slightly, turned her eyes, and gradually began to regain her energy.

Immediately afterwards, tiredness appeared on his delicate little face, and he yawned cutely, as if he had just woken up and was still a little dazed, or as if he was trying hard after staying up all night. To get rid of fatigue.

"Is the sorting over? Professor Dumbledore, where should I go now?"

Elena yawned again and stood up unsteadily, with a look of just the right amount of confusion on her face.

Just as she expected, this spicy old carrot would not stick to his promise and not take the initiative to use Legilimency at the critical moment. If she hadn't been prepared for it, just by looking at each other just now, she might have... Wearing help.

Severus Snape is not the only master of Occlumency in this world.

Whether it is Grindelwald or Lockhart, their magical attainments in this area are also quite outstanding. After such a long period of magic learning, and with the help of mathematical models, Elena can only perfectly deceive Deng. More buli.

"That's right, the sorting is over. As for you -"

Dumbledore shook his head helplessly, looked at the girl's chest, and then at Professor McGonagall who was hesitant to speak.

As the principal of Hogwarts, Dumbledore naturally knew what the deans were fighting for.

The competition for the House Cup at the end of every year in Hogwarts is just one of the reasons. Elena Kaslana carries more than just her own score - the most important thing is that she will improve a house. Their comprehensive strength, treatment, confidence, and cohesion also influence the campus lifestyle of Hogwarts students to a certain extent.

Judging from the current situation, whether Elena is sent to Gryffindor, Slytherin, or Hufflepuff, any one of these three houses will inevitably cause the other two houses to produce biased thoughts. The thought of fighting.

After all, according to Hogwarts' past procedures, as the new prefect, Elena still needs to take the students to their respective common rooms, and the Dean's table where she stayed tonight is undoubtedly what she needs to be responsible for. area……

unless--

Dumbledore paused, took a deep look at Elena, cleared his throat, and continued.

"Since the Sorting Hat just read Ravenclaw first, before I discuss the results with the professors, Elena, please sit down at the long table of Ravenclaw House for the time being, and then the banquet is over. Don’t leave in a hurry yet—”

"Minerva, as for the Sorting Hat, let it be alone for now...give it some time to digest."

"For now, that seems to be all we can do, Professor Dumbledore."

Mag Minerva glanced at the hat in her hand that was still shouting, shook her head helplessly, bent slightly to pick up the three-legged stool used for sorting, and strode towards the staff lounge next to the staff table.

Ever since Elena Kaslana entered the school, the sorting ceremony has never gone smoothly.

In fact, according to McGonagall Minerva's thoughts, she even had the idea for a moment to lock Elena into the staff room next to her next year and wait until the sorting ceremony was over before releasing her. The urge to come out.

Sure enough, it's Ravenclaw——

After hearing Dumbledore's final decision, the little fur on Elena's head shook proudly.

"Okay, Professor Dumbledore, I'll stay after dinner."

The girl nodded slowly, her lake-blue eyes showing no trace of emotion, and she answered softly in a calm tone.

The future of Hogwarts lies with its students, not one professor. Controlling the Sorting Hat is equivalent to controlling half of the future to a certain extent - from data collection to macro-control between colleges, it has many uses.

Of course, all of this is just a long-term plan that has not yet happened.

At least until Hogwarts Academy City is fully established, Elena does not need the big data analysis from the Sorting Hat or the long-term plan with a timeline of more than one year. Her era has just begun.

This kid may feel a little uncomfortable tonight...

Dumbledore raised his head, looked at Elena walking towards the Ravenclaw table, and shook his head slightly.

A head-on collision with the Sorting Hat. In this kind of spiritual confrontation, no one will be the ultimate winner.

Compared with the wisdom of the four founders, Elena is still a young witch after all. Perhaps because of the lessons learned from Grindelwald and Tom, he was too vigilant before, so he might as well adjust it a little later.

And at the same time.

On the other side, at the long table of Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, and Hufflepuff.

"Huh, Elena is fine."

"Dad is right, sister Elena is indeed very dangerous..."

"This white-haired dumpling is starting to lie to people again!"

As Elena's little silly hair appeared in a familiar swaying trajectory, the three little witches, Hannah Abbott, Luna Lovegood, and Hermione Granger, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. There was a strange look on his face.

——This white-haired dumpling is too courageous. Does the principal dare to lie to him?

The most important thing is, judging from the current situation, this white-haired dumpling has actually succeeded? !

…

"Okay, so the sorting is over! Now let me think about where I just said..."

Dumbledore recovered his thoughts, cleared his throat, and looked around the auditorium with a smile.

"Oh, by the way! Welcome, welcome everyone back to Hogwarts!"

"I believe that everyone is already a little hungry, but before that, please bear with me for a while - there are a few things about Hogwarts this semester that I think it is necessary to tell you in advance, most of which are They are more important things, so I think it’s best to explain them clearly before you enjoy the delicious meal and become confused..."

“I am delighted to welcome three new teachers to our lineup this semester, starting with Professor Lupine.”

Dumbledore showed a warm smile on his face and pointed towards the staff seat behind him.

At the same time, a sickly looking wizard stood up and smiled gently at the students.

Compared to the other well-dressed professors, Professor Lupine's wizard robes are obviously much shabbier. Several places on the robes have been patched. Although he still looks young, his light brown hair is already a bit gray. .

As Professor Lupin stood up, Severus Snape's thin, yellow face twitched suddenly.

"Professor Snape..." Harry glanced at Snape worriedly.

After getting along with him for a whole school year, he almost regarded Snape as a close elder.

Although the professor's face was cold most of the time, Harry knew very well that Snape was not as arrogant as the senior Gryffindor students said. At least on his birthday, Snape was the only one who gave him a gift. professor.

However, the expression on Snape's face now looked so unfamiliar.

Harry remembered seeing such a hateful look on Professor Snape's face only once, and that was when Professor Snape looked at Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black during the trial of Peter Pettigrew a few months ago. expression.

However, except for Harry, most of the young wizards were not paying attention to Professor Snape at this time.

Everyone's attention was on Dumbledore and the new professor who was nodding towards everyone.

"I regret to tell you that our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Quirinus Quirrell, has not yet recovered from St. Mungo's Hospital of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and Professor Apokalis would rather continue to serve as the Castle Administrator, rather than teaching a specific subject. However, I believe Professor Lu Ping is capable enough to take on this teaching position."

"Besides..."

Dumbledore paused for a moment, looked around at the talking students, and said with a smile.

"I am very happy to announce to everyone that starting from this semester, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry will add two additional interesting and important main courses-mathematics and physics courses, and literature courses..."

Following the old wizard's voice, a young man wearing a blue forget-me-not wizard's robe couldn't wait to stand up and showed a hearty and dazzling smile to the students.

Beside the young man, a middle-aged man with a slightly shiny forehead stood up with a wry smile. He looked around nervously and helplessly at the students in the auditorium, and finally his eyes fell on the long Ravenclaw table. A gentle smile appeared on the face of a little girl.
