Chapter 1304： Solution

  Chapter 1304 Solution

   "Welcome to Dumbledore's Army."

   Albert looked at the people opposite, and sure enough, they were all Harry's acquaintances and supporters.

   Everyone didn't speak, they just looked at Albert quietly, trying to see what the other party would say.

Albert said straight to the point, "I'll just say it straight. In today's British wizarding world, many wizards choose to remain neutral, act as fools, or seek refuge with the mysterious man. Now we can only gather some like-minded people to fight against the mysterious man." .”

   "Of course, there is a more important reason."

   "Why?" Hannah asked.

   "According to the prophecy more than ten years ago, there will inevitably be a battle between Harry and the mysterious man, and he needs everyone's support." Albert revealed quite explosive news.

   "Is this something important that Harry said?" Dean couldn't help asking.

   "Yes, Harry is preparing for this."

  "We can't just watch him fight alone, facing the mysterious man and his huge number of minions alone. He needs help, and only we can help him right now."

   As soon as Albert finished speaking, he received a lot of applause.

"Of course, fighting a dark wizard is a very dangerous thing. There is no need to sacrifice meaninglessly, but don't be discouraged by this. Even if some of you will not step on the battlefield because of your young age and insufficient fighting skills, I can still do my part for everyone, to help Harry defeat the mysterious man."

   "I can and can fight, we are not afraid of death." Brother Creevey protested dissatisfied.

   "I know." Albert said gently, "Don't worry, you still need to receive strict defense against black arts training in order to better protect yourself."

   "Are you here to teach us?" Dean looked at Albert expectantly, "By the way, are we now joining the Defense Association?"

  Everyone pricked up their ears to listen, they were more concerned about this matter.

   "You are already peripheral members of the association."

   "Peripheral members."

  Everyone looked stunned.

"The official members of the Defense Association have undergone rigorous training. Take Cedric as an example. He now has a level of defense against the black arts that is not inferior to Aurors. One person can easily knock down three or four of you." Albert Te introduced Cedric directly, "If you don't believe me, you can try it later and see how many people he can face against attacks alone."

  Cedric couldn't help but roll his eyes, he knew that Albert must have done it on purpose.

   "How do we become full members?" Justin couldn't help asking.

"You still need to work hard to hone your fighting skills, and we will be happy to welcome you to officially join us at that time." Albert did not set the so-called standard, "But I have to tell you in advance that once you join the Defense Association, you will face For real dangers and challenges, which may even cost you your life, you need to be mentally prepared in advance.”

   Several people looked at each other, obviously a little bit taken aback by Albert's words.

"Okay, I'm here today to solve your problems." Albert raised his hand and pressed it, signaling for everyone to keep quiet, "The first is to improve the living environment and make your life more comfortable, but this requires you to do it yourself. Use magic to complete it, instead of complaining all day like the guys outside, always hoping that someone will clean it up for them directly."

"I know there is a lack of food here, but you can grow some fast-ripening vegetables to improve the food. I think this should be no problem for people in Hufflepuff College!" Albert said to Hannah, "The seed problem I'll help you out."

   "Should be fine, but we don't have the right soil. And here..."

"You have magic wands, and you can build your own greenhouse on the roof." Albert said calmly, "Don't underestimate yourself, many things depend on whether you are willing to do it, such as using 'clean up' to clean up the filth here. Clean it up, isn't it? It's not a very difficult thing, so why don't you start cleaning it up, I think you probably don't want to live in a very bad environment!"

   Everyone looked at each other, and finally, under Hannah's urging, they began to clean the room according to Albert's words.

   It didn't take much time for the seven people to clean the room again. Even if there were some dirty things that were difficult to clean, they were brushed over and over again.

"Look, you can do it, it's just that you are willing to spend some time to do it." Albert said gently: "Now I will give you half an hour to clean up the rooms you live in, I think You should also want a comfortable environment, and I'll treat you to something to eat when you're done."

   "Did you say the same to others?" Cedric asked suspiciously.

"Yes, I said it, but it's very difficult. If they don't want to, what can I do?" Albert shook his head and said, "To be honest, the food is already on the table, but I am too lazy to reach out and be hungry." Death simply deserves it."

   "You metaphor..."

  Everyone was a little speechless, but this is actually true.

   "But didn't Hannah follow your advice?" Cedric couldn't understand.

   "They were probably also DA members at school, they all supported Harry, they were more willing to believe in Albert, and they were more persuasive," Shanna explained to everyone.

"That's it. As long as you teach them how to change the environment by themselves, how to learn and improve, they will gradually get on the right track, and they will not continue to complain about the bad environment here, because they know that they can change the living environment by themselves, and they will also learn because of this." Feeling a sense of accomplishment, as for other people who don't want to, then they have to continue to endure, which can't be blamed."

   "After all, it is always easier to convince a few people than to convince a large number of people!"

   "I didn't expect it to be like this."

   "Most of your latest thoughts are on Qiu Zhang, and you just didn't notice it." Albert laughed and teased.

   Cedric is a little embarrassed because other people around have started booing and asking when they are getting married.

   "Ahem, I'm still young, so I'm not in a hurry to get married."

  Cedric certainly likes Qiu, but the current situation is not suitable for discussing this matter. The wedding of Bill and Fleur can be regarded as a lesson for everyone.

   "You should take advantage of the opportunity!" Albert reminded kindly, "Once time drags on and misses the first few years, that willingness will fade."

   "Fred, what about you?" Cedric tried to change the subject.

   "I'm the reason, but Angelina still wants to play for a few more years before retiring." Fred shrugged: "So, we decided to wait until this war is over..."

   "Perhaps, you should consider getting engaged first, and it doesn't matter about getting married later." Albert interrupted, lest Fred raise a flag for himself for no reason.

   "That's a good idea. I'll go back and discuss it with Angelina, but I don't know if she is willing." Fred agreed with Albert's proposal.

   "We talked about it, and Qiu Zhang agreed, but it's not suitable for us to get in touch with the family. You know it's not appropriate at this time."

   While a few people were talking, Hannah had already led the people to finish the cleaning work, and came back to Albert again.

   "I think you need beds!"

   Albert looked at the empty room, waved his wand lightly, summoned a cardboard box out of thin air, and then used the Pasting Charm to paste the cardboard boxes together to form a single bed.

   "This thing collapses under a little pressure."

   "Of course, you guys need to deform it, like this."

   As he spoke, Albert used a spell to deform the cardboard box bed, turning it into a simple single bed.

"Tables and chairs can also be transformed in a similar way. Transformation magic is more practical than you expected, but you must know how to use it. If the success rate is not high, you can also try to transform the same thing with multiple people. , if a dead object becomes a dead object, generally as long as the area of ​​the object is not much different, the difficulty will not be too high." Albert gave them a demonstration in person.

   Hannah froze for a moment, and said awkwardly: "But we don't know the spell, and we can't turn it into a bed like you."

"Oh, well, this is indeed a big mistake of mine, I will tell you the spell." Albert really didn't think about these spells, since absorbing the knowledge in Dumbledore's transformation notes, He's basically out of spells.

   "Okay, let's go to the kitchen. I think it should be ready over there. I promise to give you something to eat. Don't worry, it's not boiled potatoes."

  Albert took them to the kitchen, where the house elves had prepared sumptuous food for everyone according to his instructions.

   It's just that the food on this big table is all made of wheat and potatoes, and everyone is dumbfounded.

   "There are many ways to make wheat and potatoes, but you don't know how to make them. Otherwise, you can change the taste every day."

   As he spoke, Albert handed a bowl of steaming sliced ​​noodles to Hannah and said, "Taste it, I think it's more convincing than anything else."

   "So, we don't have a share." Lee Jordan curled his lips, "If I had known, I wouldn't have followed. Watching them eat, I feel hungry."

   "Is this a vegetable pie?" Andy looked at the dumplings in doubt, "It tastes really good."

   "Vegetable fried dumplings, made of wheat and vegetables." Albert introduced, "The fillings inside can be changed as you like."

  Everyone was a little skeptical of life. They didn't expect that flour and potatoes could make food that they had never eaten before, and it tasted very good.

"Albert has a lot of research on food." Shanna waved her wand, conjured two books out of thin air and handed them to Hannah, saying, "Albert's amazing recipes, I compiled them, even if you use some simple food You can make very delicious food, so don’t complain about bad food in the future, it’s because you don’t know how to cook.”

   After finishing speaking, Shanna winked at Albert mischievously and said, "I plan to publish this book in the future, don't you mind?"

"do not mind."

"The house elves here can do it. I suggest you ask them if you have time. It won't hurt to learn a little bit." Albert said to Dobby, "Especially girls, the opportunity is rare, and it will be difficult for you to find such an opportunity in the future." Qualified teacher."

   "Please." Albert said to the three house elves.

   "It's our pleasure."

  The house elves hurriedly bowed slightly to Albert.

   Hannah's expression was a little weird, because Albert called the house elf a teacher, which is unimaginable in the magic world, and probably only Albert could say such a thing so calmly.

After everyone wolfed down and enjoyed the food on the table, Albert continued: "Probably that's it, you need to stick together, spend more time practicing spells every day, and we will also send people to teach you, believe me, as long as If you work hard, you will definitely make greater progress than Hogwarts students, because you have more time."

   "Is this the same for the Defense Association?" Hannah asked Shanna curiously.

   "Yeah, pretty much, but we spend most of our time practicing fighting."

"Most members have gone through the stage of accumulating spells, and this process will take about a year." Albert thought for a while and said, "So don't worry, I will formally invite you when you have almost mastered the spells Joining the Defense Association will teach you how to fight dark wizards, instead of throwing spells at each other like children playing, this is knowledge that cannot be learned in books, and it is also one of the benefits of joining the Defense Association."

   "Can we become as powerful as Cedric by then?" Justin is looking forward to this, he knows very well that only with strength can he protect himself in this terrible era.

   "As long as you have mastered that part of the experience, you will basically have the combat level of the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, and you don't even have to face ordinary dark wizards, because their combat literacy is not as high as yours who have been trained through the system."

   Albert looked at the group of people with bright eyes, and was quite satisfied with this.

   "At that time, you will be able to defeat them more easily, and with some black magic defense props, there will definitely be no problem in self-protection."

  About this point, they actually believed it, because Fred and George beat up several dark wizards who were monitoring here a while ago.

   After seeing how Albert persuaded the members of DA, everyone was amazed.

  They also know that this matter is probably over. At least the future described by Albert is still very good, and everyone's situation will change soon.

   And others may be dissatisfied after they notice it, but what about dissatisfaction?

   They were bought by Hua Jialong, do they still have the face to grab it?

   No one is that stupid.

   Those who want to live a better life, gradually integrating into Dumbledore's Army is their destination.

  This is probably what Albert said: It is better to let them convince themselves than to persuade them.

   "By the way, a communicator is on today."

  After returning to the Defense Association headquarters, Lee Jordan talked about what he discovered this morning.

   "Then observe for two days first, lest they be controlled by the Death Eaters' Imperius Curse and trap us into the trap." Albert said calmly, "It's always right to be careful."
