Chapter 369: Classroom Seven

Chapter 369: Classroom Seven

After the conversation with Professor McGonagall, Felix only assigned one homework task. Its content was similar to the dueling system essay that Harry and Hermione had writtenwhat things could help you survive in times of danger?

"Personality, knowledge, mastered spells, items carried with youeverything can be included," the new male and female prefects conveyed his words to the selected students.

Over the next week, many professors worked together on a major project, while Felix himself spent time inside the Room of Requirement, replicating the magic and magical conduits depicted there, along with the crucial magical nodes. Now, only the final step remained

Saturday morning.

Dumbledore and Felix stood in the empty room. The transformed hills and greenery were gone, as were the traces of different dueling arenas from the competition. Even the black suspended door used to select students a week ago had vanished.

In the room, only the subtle Traceless Expansion Charm cast by Felix remained, allowing the interior space to rival ten Quidditch fields. If not for considering the other four schools, Hogwarts could easily have its students reside here.

The professors had added layers of sturdy spells and protective magic. In truth, every inch of this ancient castle was imbued with powerful magic. Their efforts primarily supplemented the existing defenses.VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

Currently, only the two of them were in the classroom, engaged in a serious conversation

"What do you think?" Felix inquired.

"Worth a try," Dumbledore said casually.

"I never imagined embedding my own magic into Hogwarts' defensive system, to endure for a hundred, a thousand years..." Felix was briefly lost in thought, and as he snapped back, Dumbledore was smiling at him.

"Let's begin, Albus. The students outside must be eager," Felix tightened his grip on his wand and said.

Dumbledore complied readily, raising his own wand. Like a conductor in an orchestra, he waved his arm, connecting with the ancient castle in a way Felix couldn't comprehend.

"Hum~"

Whether an illusion or not, Felix felt the castle under his feet coming to life, like a dormant dragon stirring slightly. Nests were built, holes were dug, and little creatures parasitized on its scales, discovering that the whole world had changed.

Clusters of magic materialized into physical formspurple, blue, yellow, bronze, green, gray... They merged and separated rapidly, forming blossoms of magical flowers.

"Felix" Dumbledore's voice was deep.

Felix understood instinctively that he needed to stabilize these magical manifestations, creating secure linksmuch like the Room of Requirement.

A fluffy silver sphere appeared in his hand, resembling a dandelion seed yet also resembling a cluster of neural networks. Occasional pale blue currents flickered within it. It drifted into the air and rapidly expanded into a three-dimensional structure, filling the spacious room.

Felix recited complex incantations, gradually merging the tendrils and cores with the space, like synapses absorbing ownerless magic, fortifying the magical nodes above.

Then everything vanished. Magic, tendrils, nodes... they had become one with the room.

Felix shifted his focus, finding those nodes and hiding them one by one. Even the most powerful wizards would struggle to detect them. Dumbledore did the same, using his unique authority as headmaster to establish stable magical pathways.

"Oh, you don't need to." Felix mumbled, letting layers of silver mist envelop him completely.

...

Felix said to Dumbledore, "They won't appear frequently. Instead, they'll serve as custodians of this hidden realm. Their task is to infuse more vitality into this place, to make those experienced scenes more vivid and manageable. Of course, I mean after the training."

Dumbledore nodded slightly. "You've told me all this, and I have no objections."

They exited the room together. Over twenty students waited anxiously outside. A young girl exclaimed shrilly, "Why isn't my name on the list? Why?"

Professor McGonagall was comforting her, "Miss Gringlass, you're too young, your mind isn't mature enough yet. It wouldn't be appropriate..."

"I'm the champion of the first-year duel competition! The champion!" Astoria yelled at the top of her lungs.

Professor McGonagall rubbed her temples, looking at her headache-inducing pupil. Dumbledore walked over and bent down, speaking gently, "You're little Astoria, right? Your father sent me a letter. Let's go have a look, shall we? And by the way, I could recommend a few sweets for you..."

"Really?"

"Professor McGonagall can vouch for me..."

McGonagall rolled her eyes to the side, but at least one trouble was resolved. She told Felix, "These students are in your hands now, Felix. I believe"

She pondered briefly, deciding not to say more. She turned and left.

Felix looked at the young faces. "Alright, classmates, with your essays in hand, follow me."

He took a few steps, paused, and looked at the slightly ajar door. He drew his wand, sketching in the air, and above the doorway appeared gilded letters: "Classroom Seven."

Harry, Ron, and Hermione exchanged glances. Harry shrugged, "At least now it lives up to its name."
