Chapter 1474? Ilvermorny School of Magic and Witchcraft
On Mount Greylock in Massachusetts, hidden among the swirling clouds and mists, is the famous magic school in North America - Ivermorny School of Magic and Witchcraft. It is equipped with a variety of powerful magics to enable people who do not know magic. Its existence cannot be seen, and it only appears when surrounded by clouds and mist.
In the seventeenth century, the school began with a simple stone house, two teachers and two students. Now, the granite hut of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which has flourished for more than two centuries, has been transformed into a magnificent castle.
In memory of the founders, Isolt Thayer and James Stewart, marble statues of them are erected on either side of the main entrance to Ilvermorny Castle.
Near the castle, there are some Pukki with bows on their backs as guards. They disappear and appear near the school from time to time, or turn themselves into two forms: porcupine or puma.
This North American magical creature is a distant relative of goblins. It is also short in stature. In human form, it is about two to three feet tall. It has a larger nose than European goblins, has long ears and fingers, and is gray and smooth. The skin sometimes glows.
A tree with a crown like a giant umbrella, tall and straight stems and green leaves, like a work of art, stands alone in the courtyard outside the hall. The dark brown leaves are spirally arranged at the top of the straight stems, and it looks like Very lush.
The gate of the fort opens to both sides, and you can see the magnificent rotunda with a glass dome above it.
On the second floor of the hall, there is a wooden terrace surrounding the hall. Otherwise, there is almost nothing superfluous in the hall, except for four other wooden carvings representing the four houses: the horned water snake, the cat and leopard, the thunderbird, and the pukki.
The wizards who are still in Ilvermorny School - those young wizards who feel that their identities are clean and have no involved families, are wearing blue and raspberry red uniforms and robes standing on the wooden terrace surrounding the hall.
After receiving the news that the United Magic Kingdom was dispatched, they gathered here to wait for the United Kingdom to take over. Because Chairman Picquery knew that the other party also brought the International Wizarding United Peacekeeping Force, he couldn't bear the school to be burned down, so he The original plan to use this place as a resistance stronghold became to leave this alma mater of American wizards in an undefended state, hoping that this could more completely preserve this magic school established in the seventeenth century.
In the distant sky, you can see that the floating ship on which the vanguard of the United Magic Kingdom is riding has broken through the clouds, shrouding the earth in darkness.
The wizards who were watching saw this in their eyes, and they started to become restless.
As the interim acting principal, Gilbert Fontana quickly reassured the students - the original principal of Ilvermorny had hid in the Rocky Mountains because he was suspected of participating in the attack, and as the first Auror in the United States, Therdad Fontana A descendant of Nana, Ai Gilbert was successfully appointed as the interim acting principal.
"After the Magical Congress burned down its headquarters, we no longer have any landmark buildings except Ilvermorny... but now we do not offer any resistance at all and actively open the door to welcome the invaders. This is a shame..."
"They say it's to save the school, but what's the difference between that and surrendering."
"Professors don't allow us to resist and consider the overall situation...Today we will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame in history..."
…
The orders of the acting principal Ai, who took over the school in a hurry and has not yet established his prestige, made the students somewhat reluctant. However, under the comfort and request of the principal and professors, these wizards did not take any further action except complaining.
In fact, the United Kingdom's march this time was not as fast as the previous invasion of Germany and Bulgaria, because except for the Rocky Mountains, the population of American wizards is too small for the size of the United States. The land area of the American wizarding community is almost the same as that of Germany before. Thirty times that of the magical world, and many base areas are important resource places such as magical animal sanctuaries controlled by only a few wizards. This also resulted in the gathering places for wizards being too scattered, and many places were even abandoned by American wizards because of their vast land and sparse population.
Along the way, the Magic Kingdom spent a lot of time returning the magical beasts in the protected area that were no longer restricted by wizards, and repairing the Muggle areas destroyed by them, which slowed down the capture.
And now, as the aerospace flagship of the Magic Kingdom begins to descend and approaches the land, at the instructions of the professors, the school song of Ilvermorny suddenly sounds, and the soundtrack echoes in the space.
"We are united,
Against the Puritans.
We draw inspiration,
From the good wizard Morrigan..."
The school song that the wizards were forced to sing was not loud. The singing that was originally joyful and proud was now somewhat suppressed by the wizards, and the expressions on their faces were also different.
Ilvermorny Cat Leopard Academy is rich in warriors, and they are the most angry at this attitude of surrendering without a fight. Their strong nationalist complex makes them react the most violently, almost all of them with humiliating angry expressions on their faces.
Because the wizards of Pukechi Academy are kind-hearted doctors, they don't have a good impression of the floating city of Hogwarts where black magic is prevalent. They think about the floating city and even the use of blasphemous necromancy spells in industry and agriculture. A flash of worry.
Thunderbird Academy is home to many adventurers. Although they also feel humiliated and frustrated because they did not resist, in fact, there is nothing objectionable about joining the floating city to learn new ways.
In fact, apart from most of the little wizards who looked sad, there were a few little wizards - especially the little wizards from the Horned Water Serpent Academy who were even a little happy inside. They were displeased that their school had been replaced by Hogwarts. There is no objection to the occupation. Originally, they thought that because of the relationship between the United States and Britain, they did not have the opportunity to experience the floating city, but now it is very likely that Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will float to the floating city. Next to Gwarts, you can have inter-school exchanges and learn new knowledge. This even made these Ilvermorny students who are the top academics have some aspirations.
Judging from the atmosphere in other colleges, they have no intention of revealing their true feelings - only some horned water snakes who are about to graduate are worried, and they have no time to enjoy the benefits of Ilvermorny joining Hogwarts, and Now that the Magical Congress has been burned down by magic officials in the United States, the final exams that were about to begin seem to have come to nothing. This makes them very worried about their certificates and how to prove their abilities to find suitable jobs.
As for the Magic Kingdom, since the Magical Congress of the United States of America has been burned down, conquering Ilvermorny, the alma mater of American wizards, has important symbolic significance.
For this reason, Irving's staff deliberately arranged the operation for personal gain, with Albert, the commander-in-chief, personally bringing a team of armed forces to receive it, and asked Penello to arrange the peacekeeping force mission and let her follow in her personal capacity. Come over to gild their political resumes.
By now, when the aerostat had landed steadily, the commanders of the Magic Kingdom stepped into this magic school, which was originally known for its democracy, accompanied by the end of Ilvermorny's school song.
Acting Principal Fontana suppressed the humiliation and sadness rising in her heart. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net No matter what she thought, she took the initiative to greet him with a smile: "Your Excellency Harris, Miss Crevat... I am Acting Principal Ai Gilbert Fontana, welcome to Ilvermorny, America."
Albert did not ask about the situation of the former principal. Unlike Penello who looked disdainful, he instead maintained the politeness that a former British wizard should have and shook hands with the other party: "Principal Fontana, please Please introduce us to the history of this great school, Ilvermorny. I was very curious about this school when I was at Hogwarts. All American wizards were trained by it, right?"
"Nowadays, wizards and wizards from all over the Americas choose to send their children to study here. Ilvermorny, a boarding school in particular, occupies the most important position in the history of magic in North America." Fontana said with pride in his tone. , "Ilvermorny School of Magic and Witchcraft originated from Aesop Seal, a witch in Ireland. Starting in the seventeenth century, it has flourished for more than two centuries because of one of our founders, James Stewart. I am a No-Maj, so the public expects the school to adopt a democratic style... Of course, this is also the case." There was some flattery in his words that contained the same pride as before, "Before the reform of Hogwarts, Ilvermorny was recognized as the most popular school. It is one of the great magic schools that is democratic and the most educated. Of course, under the wise reform of Principal Harris, no other school can compare with Hogwarts in terms of degree of democracy and speed of development..."
