HP's return to innocence

Chapter 78 Victory Belongs to Slytherin

Draco thought it was a bit like an upgrade to a Muggle computer years later.

The hardware is the entire Hogwarts castle. After thousands of years, the most basic "core" of the castle has not become obsolete. On the contrary, after thousands of years of accumulation of magic power, the protective spells added by successive principals have made the castle stronger.While some of the "configurations" are a bit dated - most notably the broom for flying lessons - those have nothing to do with the castle itself.

And what needs to be upgraded now is the "operating system" of Hogwarts school...

Although Drake said that he was not worried, the worst case scenario would be to open another school, but in fact, it was impossible not to worry about the real reform.

Even though the memories he left here, the sad and painful ones are much more than the happy ones.Even though this place once took away his last hope and sheltered his most hated enemy, but... this is Hogwarts, here is Slytherin, this is where generations of Malfoy spent the most carefree years of their lives shelter.

If he hadn't been forced to be helpless, he really didn't hope that one day, "Platinum Prince of Slytherin" would become a historical term, and even be forgotten by the world. Of course, Draco knew that nickname, which was owned by Malfoy in all generations. glory and pride.

It is a little surprising that the protagonist of this "upgrade" is not Dumbledore as the principal, but the Sorting Hat.The hat was sitting in front of Dumbledore, in the middle of the professor's chair.

"Today is the last day of term, and I think you all know that something special happened this year." Dumbledore didn't wear any fancy robes of strange colors, but only a light gray style Some old wizard robes, his beard is also neatly trimmed, and he doesn't use any bows.

"We all love Hogwarts, and we hope that Hogwarts will be better and better. After standing for a thousand years, we can also stand for a second millennium, or even longer... But now, what we will be able to do is already Done well, and change, or not change, the final choice is in the hands of Hogwarts!"

"boom--!"

Dumbledore's wand tapped the Sorting Hat, and the sudden loud noise startled most of the people.

And that dirty old hat glowed, of course, the light didn't make him look beautiful or holy, but it looked weird.

The hat's mouth pursed twice, and then, like every semester began, he began to sing.But unlike at the beginning of each semester, now no one frowns because of his terrible singing voice, or closes his ears to listen to himself, all of them are listening attentively.

"It was more than 1000 years ago,

Four wizards gathered together,

In order to cultivate young wizards into talents,

To protect young children from harm,

Hogwarts was built for this.

Now more than 1000 years have passed,

The four wizards of the past have been buried underground,

Generations of young wizards have come out from here.

But they suddenly found that

It's not just the clothes of the students and the textbooks of the professors that have changed,

Hogwarts also needed to change. ①"

The singing stopped, and the Sorting Hat burst out with a bang of red, green, blue, and yellow flames, and he seemed to be on fire.

Both the students and the professor were exclaiming. If Dumbledore hadn't stopped it in time, Professor Sprout would have almost given the Sorting Hat a clear spring.

The ceiling also changed color. It was a big Hogwarts school badge. Snakes, lions, badgers and eagles formed a big H. Then the border and shading of the school badge suddenly began to shake. Everyone was curious and puzzled. At that moment, a string of mysterious and brilliant magic patterns poured down from the ceiling.

Someone fell off the bench in fright as the chain of the magweave grazed over his head.

The magic pattern finally invested in the firepower ignited by the Sorting Hat. Suddenly, Draco heard someone whispering, or the sound of waves lapping. He began to think that he had heard it wrong, but Blaise came together at this time. Come over: "Did you hear the sound?"

"heard it."

While they were talking, suddenly, the parchment with the reform plan that had been placed on Dumbledore's left hand side behind the Sorting Hat floated up, and it was in midair, as if someone had shaken it. The whole stretched out.

A chain of magic patterns wrapped around it, and the next moment it was wrapped around it and thrown into the fire ignited by the Sorting Hat.Then the parchment really caught fire, and Draco could even smell the bad smell of burning animal hide.

Everyone became more and more nervous. The scene in front of them represented the anger of Hogwarts, or did they accept the reform?

In the auditorium, except for the weird, louder voice, there was no noise. Drake even felt a sense of suffocation, until the four-colored flame suddenly rose, and the chains of the magic patterns shook for a while, It moved again—the chain was invisible, but at that time many people stopped the sound of metal clashing—but this time, the magic pattern chain was not thrown into the flame, but pulled something out from the flame.

They finally saw what the chains were pulling. It was English, more precisely, it was the words written on the parchment.Now they have also become the materialized state of magic power that can be seen like the magic pattern chain, and in the process of being pulled up, these modern English that anyone can understand are undergoing changes visible to the naked eye. Or they are being "translated" by Hogwarts itself.

The Ravenclaws quickly recorded these runes. In fact, many people wanted to do the same thing, including the adult wizards sitting on the professor's chair, but unfortunately, most of them did not carry quills and The habit of parchment.

"Like rune letters."

"Something is wrong, and the grammar is wrong."

"It does have something in common with some aspects of Elvish language."

"I think that sentence is analyzed in the language of goblins, and it can be matched with willingness."

At last the wizards stopped being silent, and there were whispers everywhere, though not all of them.But at least the seniors who took the ancient runes, and most of the pure-blooded young wizards can talk a few words.

The process of text conversion lasted about 15 minutes. When everyone raised their heads and stared at the ceiling, the entire auditorium suddenly went dark without warning!There were exclamations one after another. If the fire of the Sorting Hat was not still burning, someone might have run away screaming.

"This is Hogwarts, built for students and changed for students."

The ugly sound of the Sorting Hat sounded, and then "Boom!", the fire exploded.Even Drake was startled this time, and subconsciously got up to avoid it, but he soon realized that it was unnecessary.

The little sparks of four colors fluttered and scattered throughout the auditorium, as if there were countless little fairies dancing in the auditorium.The restless Gryffindor couldn't help standing up and grabbing them with his hands, but although these sparks could be seen, they couldn't be touched, and they couldn't even feel the temperature.

This scene is a bit like falling into a galaxy with four-color stars...

But the dreamlike scene was quickly broken by the shaking floor and the harsh sound of bricks colliding.Everyone couldn't help but wonder "Will Hogwarts collapse?", but soon, everything returned to normal.

They were still sitting in the very familiar Hogwarts hall of Hogwarts—familiar ceiling, familiar walls, familiar long tables, and familiar classmates sitting beside them.

If not everyone can prove that what really happened just now, then I don't know how many people will regard everything just now as their daydream.

"Is that the end?" Guan Guan still asked until he boarded the train with his luggage.At least the Great Hall where they dined and the Slytherin dormitories looked unchanged, so this had to give Diorama a sense of deflation.

"What do you think should change? Slytherin's cellar merged with Gryffindor's tower?"

"No, that's a disaster..."

"This is the end of the semester. Even if there is a change, there is no time to show it. Let's wait for the next semester." Delaque sighed, and he was really looking forward to the next semester.

By the way, it was Gryffindor who won the house cup this year - Slytherin gave up the house cup from the beginning, did not go to class, and did not even participate in the Quidditch match. In this case, Their scores can be imagined.

Although Gryffindor also joined the ranks of "strikes" at the beginning, after the spider incident, many people were frightened and went back to class honestly, but at that time Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw More and more people began to join the Slytherin strike.In addition, this year the Savior successfully joined the Quidditch team and became a Seeker, and Gryffindor won the Quidditch championship.

So it should be said that this year was the rarest Gryffindor year that was the most obedient and honest—of course compared with the other three academies.

However, at the final banquet, not even Gryffindor himself celebrated.

Because although they won the House Cup, the victory belonged to the Slytherins...

The author has something to say: ① I have made a little reference to the song of the sorting hat, orz, but most of them are figured out by myself.
