Chapter 235： Mowen Club Assembly

At the end of November, the weather had become very cold, the windows of the castle were covered with thick frost, there was a few snowfalls, and the mountains around Hogwarts put on a snow hat.

In a small classroom, it was warm like spring, and the wood in the fireplace was burning.

Felix sat relaxed on a sofa, smiling at the little wizards of different grades and different colleges in front of him. They were sitting on a dozen sofas, with novelty and desire in their eyes.

"Today is the first meeting of the Mowen Club. Very good, everyone is here."

"I was quite busy some time ago, but now I finally have time to think about the club's affairs." Felix was playing with a dark green coin with a unique thick luster in his hand, and the little wizards looked curiously. .

The coin does not belong to any known coin, it is not a copper nat, a silver sike, or a gold gallon.

Felix flexed his fingers to bounce the coin.

Under the gaze of the little wizards, the coin was thrown into the air, suddenly transformed into a slender little snake covered with scales, and then suddenly expanded. The little snake twisted its body, twisting the dark green snake body, at a certain moment , It swallowed its own tail in one bite, forming a standard ring.

The little wizards stared at the weird little snakes circulating in mid-air—many people had never touched this pattern before.

But Slytherin's prefect and seventh-grade student Jeffrey said in a deep and fanatically, "Ouroboros."

"Yes, Ouroboros. If you have ever dabbled in magic symbols, you will naturally not miss this ancient symbol. It represents a lot of things and is widely used in alchemy, ancient magic texts, and ancient seal studies, even in the non-magical world. Ouroboros is also quite famous, but people tend to call it occult symbols."

"Many people regard our Ouroboros as a symbol of circulation, infinity, and rebirth..."

Felix talked about the history of the Ouroboros logo, and when he stopped, the sixth grader Pat Selton asked.

"Professor, how do you think about it?"

Pat Selton wore a long braid, and Felix had the impression of her that before the owls exam last school year, she blindly bought an amulet that smelled of onion.

Felix explained: "I once regarded it as a symbol in alchemy. At that time, I thought it represented the prototype of everything and the principle of circulation, the reciprocation of construction and destruction... To some extent, it expressed the alchemist. The pursuit of perfect alchemy;

Later, I studied magical theory in depth and thought it contained vitality, symbolizing the alternation of death and rebirth. In the ancient era, many ancient wizards would engrave it on tombstones;

When I came into contact with ancient magic texts and used them as my ruler to measure magic, I thought it represented infinity and self-growth. "

Felix said leisurely: "Miss Selton, can you understand what I mean? People's ideas are always changing, and the angles of seeing things at different stages are different."

He raised his head and looked at the ring snake, and said with emotion: "Everyone's views will not be exactly the same. I hope that one day, you will also have your own views. It is not just the thoughts of others, but the deliberate thinking after learning."

The little wizards listened as if they understood. In the Magic Club, there are students from the third to the seventh grade. Not everyone can understand the mood of talking to Felix.

After waiting quietly for a while, the wood in the fireplace was still burning, Felix curled up his mouth: "Okay, little wizards. I did not gather you together for small talk. To put it bluntly, I There are many things that can be done, but it does not include discussing trivial matters."

"The Sorting Hat assigns you to different academies according to your most prominent characteristics, such as Ravenclaw—" His eyes swept towards Qiu Zhang, Penello, Wharton Paldis, Eddie Camille Che, Marietta Ekmo, Michael Kona, Padma Petir...

"Slytherin--" He looked at Jeffrey, Draco Malfoy, Daphne Greengrass, Pansy Parkinson...

"Hufflepuff—" He gestured with his eyes to Cedric, Justin Finley, Susan Bones, Pat Selton...

"And Gryffindor." His gaze flicked across the Harry trio, the Weasley twins, Percy, Alia Spinnet...

Felix smiled and said: "Your traits together make up the different atmospheres of the four colleges. But in fact, the atmosphere of the four colleges in turn affects you and aggravates this trait—sometimes I just need to talk to others. With just a few sentences, you can roughly tell the college where he came from."

Felix smiled, "To be a digression, for a certain period of time, I will play this kind of game consciously, and the success rate is very high."

"Back to the topic. There are good and bad things about this approach. The advantage is that every college has its own good morals. Once the atmosphere is formed, it is easy to be driven to progress; the disadvantage is that some people have not learned it. Okay, but it is contaminated with various shortcomings without knowing it."

Penello said thoughtfully: "Professors are like Ravenclaw who advocates knowledge and maverick. Students are smart, savvy, foresighted, and curious... But sometimes they are too self-centered. Center, and incompatible with the outside world, even hurting some people?"

Felix nodded approvingly, "Very insightful and courageous, Miss Crevat."

"The principals of Hogwarts realized this very early. Some of you may have had such a question. Many of your classes are taught with other colleges, and they are not a fixed one. For example, Example-Miss Granger?"

Hermione raised her head and said nervously, "Our herbal medicine class is with Hufflepuff, the potions class is with Slytherin, and the astronomy class is with Ravenclaw."

"What about after the fifth grade?" Felix looked at Jeffrey again.

Jeffrey replied: "Most of the four colleges have classes together."

Other little wizards couldn't help thinking about this problem.

Felix said: "This approach is to allow you to see another group of different types of people and learn from each other's good points in understanding."

"The club amplifies this advantage, which is also one of my favorites. So in the future, when it comes to areas that require cooperation, I will let you choose students from different colleges as partners."

Harry looked at Ravenclaw's Qiu Zhang almost immediately, but what broke his heart was that she cast her eyes on the other person. He turned his head and saw the tall and handsome Cedric.

His heart was instantly filled with a feeling of depression and loss, and the long-term expectation was like a soap bubble being punctured.

Malfoy glanced at Harry, then looked at the others, not knowing what he was thinking.

Percy and Penello looked at each other and smiled.

"Next, let me talk about the Magic Club itself--" Felix knocked on the armrest of the sofa, quieting the agitated little wizards.

"First of all the teaching of the club is mainly about practical magic, you will learn a lot of practical magic knowledge;"

"Secondly, you will participate in some of my research, be responsible for providing some data, or forming a research team to complete some experimental topics;"

"Sometimes, we may just sit down and chat to discuss topics that have nothing to do with the magic text but are interesting enough, such as-why we can unconsciously cast spells when we were young, but we can't do it after enrolling in school, or it is... ?"

Harry suddenly remembered some of his magical experiences before entering school. For example, his hair always grew wildly. In a few minutes from when he came out from the barbershop to when he went home, his hair became the same as if he had never been treated. ；

Or when Aunt Petunia tried to put on him an ugly sweater with small orange balls, he resisted it. In the struggle, the sweater shrank and became smaller, and finally he could only wear it for the puppet toy;

And when he was in Muggle school, his cousin Dudley and his gang ran after him. He wanted to jump over a trash can, only to find himself sitting on the chimney somehow;

He also lost the protective glass in the zoo and let go of a big python...
