Chapter 159： Slytherin heroes

Chapter 159 The Heroes of Slytherin

They all say that after Easter, the final exam will come soon, and this is really true.

The exams at Hogwarts are in mid-June, and the exam times for each grade are almost the same. Of course, the written examinations are all staggered and are invigilated by professors from the school.

 The weather in June is very hot, and it is even more uncomfortable when everyone is crowded in the classroom for exams.

The written exam starts at 9:30 in the morning. The first exam is Charms. Students need to sit in their seats. By the way, the invigilator is Professor McGonagall.

Everyone looked nervous, but Albert didn't care much. He just felt it was novel. The exams at Hogwarts reminded him of the college exams he took in his previous life.

 On the table are new quills, ink bottles and parchment issued by Hogwarts for everyone to use for exams. It is said that the quill, ink and parchment are all chanted with anti-cheating spells. The so-called anti-cheating spells are just like that in Albert's opinion.

 As the biggest cheater among the candidates this year, these things will definitely not work for him.

 After everyone sat down and quieted down, Professor McGonagall announced the start of the exam. Then she turned a giant hourglass on the table upside down and placed it next to it.

The moment Albert opened the exam paper, he found a new task appeared on his panel:

 In the name of genius.

You are a recognized genius student among the freshmen of this class. Since you are a genius, you should prove your strength by producing scores that match the genius. Get excellent scores in all exams. Tell everyone with facts, the so-called The exam is nothing more than that.

  Reward: 1400 experience.

Albert couldn't help curling his lips, and his eyes fell on Katrina, who was sitting in the fourth seat in the third row to his right. After reading the question, the guy started writing the answer.

 He lowered his head and looked at the first question on the test paper:

  a) Write a spell that can make objects fly;

b) Describe the action of waving a wand.

 …

 “Well, it’s easier than expected.”

 Half an hour later, Albert wrote all the answers on the parchment, and then spent another five minutes checking them. After making sure there were no mistakes, he started to sleep on the table.

There is no other way, who made the exam last two full hours?

However, the Slytherin student behind Albert was a little surprised when he found that the guy in front of him actually started to sleep.

About Albert Anderson, even Slytherin students know something about him. It is said that he is a genius, very good at studying, and good at Quidditch. He caught the Golden Snitch in the game with Slytherin, which made countless Slytherins Student Lin gritted his teeth. It was said that many people wanted to cause trouble for Anderson, but they all failed. It was a big news not long ago.

 No one believed him when he said he couldn't do the test paper. The only explanation was that the guy had already finished writing.

Have you completed the exam?

Is this exam really that simple?

The Slytherin student looked at his test paper, then looked up at the guy lying in front of him, and began to wonder if the test papers on both sides were different?

Possibly feeling someone approaching him, Albert raised his head and saw Professor McGonagall with an unkind look on his face.

Albert picked up the upside-down parchment and raised his hand to point at it, indicating that he had finished the test paper.

Professor McGonagall picked up the test paper, glanced at it, and silently put it back on the table. He said nothing more and let Albert continue to lie down.

 As for submitting papers in advance?

That will affect other people's exams, unless there are special reasons, it is impossible.

“You guys actually slept for more than an hour? Didn’t we use different test papers for the exam?” After the exam, Fred and George each wrapped their arms around Albert’s neck and couldn’t help complaining.

“Here, test paper.” Albert handed the test paper to George, “It feels pretty simple.”

 “Easy?” Lee Jordan said weakly.

"As long as you listen carefully in class, take notes in class, and read it several times after class, you will definitely be able to get excellent easily." Albert showed an expression that it must be because you didn't review carefully.

"Shut up, don't mention this again." The three of them reached out and covered Albert's mouth to prevent the other party from speaking and hurting him.

There was a practical examination of Charms in the afternoon. Professor Flitwick called them into the classroom one by one in alphabetical order, so Albert was the first one again. The exam involved casting a spell on a pineapple and tap-dancing across a desk.

  In fact, it is a test of the dance spell and the control of the spell. Of course, this was not a problem for Albert, he did it easily.

The Transfiguration exam was the next day, and the written exam was also not difficult. After Professor McGonagall saw Albert easily transforming a mouse into an exquisite silver snuff box marked with the Hogwarts emblem, Professor McGonagall stopped pursuing him in the exam. It's about sleeping.

 The more exquisite the box, the higher the score; Albert’s work of art received full marks. Of course, the so-called full marks refer to excellence.

If there are still rat whiskers on the box, points will be deducted. Fred also complained about this and had a point deduction for his ashtray, which still had faint traces of whiskers.

 What Albert found more interesting was the practical examination of potions.

 The assessment content is to prepare the forgetting potion within two hours.

This is actually not a difficult task, after all, there are only a few potions prepared throughout the school year, but...it is not easy to prepare them with Snape standing behind and watching closely.

 Whenever Snape appears behind a student without warning, he will add a negative buff to the other student, causing the student's heartbeat to speed up, his hands and feet to panic, and sometimes there will be symptoms such as operational errors.

 …

The last exam was History of Magic. It was a rather boring exam. Before the exam, Albert read all the so-called key points. There were no surprises in answering the questions, so he passed the exam safely.

 The classroom erupted in cheers when Professor Binns told them to put down their quills and roll up their parchments.

 After the exam, they were finally free and could easily play for a whole week until the exam results were announced.

 “Let’s go, I’ll treat you to some butterbeer to celebrate.” Albert waved to his roommates to leave before Katrina came over.

 “Going to Hogsmeade?” Lee Jordan asked quietly.

 “No, I’ve already asked Owl to order it by mail.”

"Owl, which one are you referring to?" Fred pointed to an owl flying towards this side, and it dropped the package in front of Albert.

 “What is this?” Fred picked it up doubtfully. He pulled out the card above and handed it to Albert.

 “It must be a book.” George said firmly.

  “Why.”

“Any package of this shape usually contains books.”

 “Can you open it?” Fred looked at Albert.

"Open it." Albert glanced at the card, and George guessed it right. The book was called "Comprehensive Solution to Basic Magic Texts" and was sent by Mr. McDougal. It was said that it had just been published.

 After the final exam, everyone is spending leisurely time on campus before the summer vacation.

The Slytherin team finally defeated the Hufflepuff team, even if it was a crushing victory, it still missed the Quidditch trophy.

Who made Slytherin lose to Gryffindor?

The culprit behind all this was a new student, which made most of the Slytherin students furious.

And, worst of all, they may not only lose the Quidditch trophy, but also the final House Cup.

At present, Gryffindor House still leads Slytherin House with a slight advantage of fifteen points, and there are only the last few days left before the year-end party.

Albert didn't pay much attention to these things. He was reading under a tree on the shore of the lake. Not far away from him, the Weasley brothers and Lee Jordan were using branches to fiddle with the children lying in the warm shallow water in the sun. Big squid.

 During the period before the holidays, the four of them often came here to kill time, and occasionally discussed how to take revenge on Filch and those who wanted to cause trouble for them.

"Is something wrong?" Albert closed the "Comprehensive Solution to Basic Magic Texts" and raised his head to look at Katrina who appeared in front of him.

"I'm ready." Katrina glanced at the book in Albert's hand and asked doubtfully, "Why don't you go to Ravenclaw?"

"Why should you go? I have friends here and my life is pretty good." Albert nodded towards the three people by the lake. "At least, my life is better than yours."

"I have friends too." Katrina understood the meaning of Albert's words and stared at Albert dissatisfiedly, as if she had no friends.

"Are we going to Ravenclaw Tower now?" Albert changed the subject. Just as he was about to stand up, he noticed four Slytherin students walking towards this side not far away, and met their eyes. After getting there, Albert knew that these four guys had bad intentions.

Katrina noticed the change in Albert's face for a moment, turned her head and looked at the four senior students walking this way, frowned slightly and said, "You seem to be in trouble."

"Trouble, I didn't see any trouble." Albert said calmly.

While the two were talking, four Slytherin students had already walked over.

“Look, who did we meet? The famous Mr. Albert Anderson.” A Slytherin student grinned with evil intentions.

"If I were you, I wouldn't stir up trouble at this time." Albert raised his hand and pointed behind several people.

“Who are you trying to deceive with this trick? Do you think we are idiots?” Someone stared at Albert and sneered disdainfully.

"Perhaps, we should cooperate with him." Someone rubbed his fists, as if he was preparing for a fight.

 “That makes you even stupider.” Someone had drawn his wand.

"I've had some experience, so I'll have no problem beating you with my bare hands." Albert motioned for Katrina to stay aside, and I'm not alone. "

“You actually plan to bully the freshmen in front of Professor Babling.” Katrina couldn’t help but frown, suddenly feeling that these four people were a bit stupid.

 No, it should be said that Albert was deliberately inducing them with words. He wanted these four guys to take action so that Professor Babbling could happen to see four senior Slytherin students bullying a Gryffindor freshman.

 What will be the result?

Katrina could guess it without even thinking.

The three Georges on the lakeshore also noticed the changes here, and they had already drawn out their wands and were ready to come over to help fight.

However, the three of them slowed down and hid their wands behind their backs, preparing to watch a good show.

The four Slytherin students obviously did not believe Albert's vulgar lies. They probably thought that Albert wanted to distract them and take the opportunity to attack them.

 So, they took action.

One of them jumped directly towards Albert, preparing to use his size advantage to push Albert to the ground and give him a severe lesson.

The latter just dodged to the side, raised his foot and tripped the opponent directly.

The other one was holding a wand and preparing to cast a spell, but Albert disarmed him first. The wand flew high and happened to land in front of Albert, who reached out to catch it.

"Stop, what are you doing?" When Professor Babling saw this scene, she went from being stunned to angry for a moment.

The two people who had already drawn out their wands and were about to cast a curse on Albert froze on the spot.

 “Professor…we are just here…”

"Do you think I'm blind?" Professor Babling stared at the four of them and coldly spit out the final verdict: "Twenty points from Slytherin, everyone. I will tell Severus, maybe he You should be detained for a few days so that you don’t bully the new students in school right after your exams.”

 The faces of the four people suddenly darkened.

 “Good morning, Professor Babling.” Albert smiled and greeted Professor Ancient Runes.

"You probably didn't receive my note, right?" Professor Babling looked at Albert, nodded and said, "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

"Okay professor." Albert spread his hands towards the four Slytherin students with a look of helplessness, "I told you."

Before Albert left with Professor Babling, he turned to the girl and said, "By the way, Katrina, let's postpone that matter for now!"

 “Asshole, give me my wand back.” The Slytherin student saw that Albert actually left with his own wand, and his nose was almost crooked with anger.

 “Oops, what did I just hear?” Fred looked at the Slytherin students with gloomy faces in a strange way, “Now, Slytherin is directly at the bottom.”

“You bastards, just wait for me.”

“Let’s go back and tell everyone the good news.” Li Jordan laughed happily, “Now, Slytherin House is completely in trouble.”

“Yes, go back and tell everyone!” Fred said, and returned to the common room with his roommates, leaving Katrina with a stunned look on her face and the Slytherin students with distorted expressions.

In the afternoon, the students passing by the hall quickly noticed the change in points. Eighty points were deducted from Slytherin House's points, instantly becoming the bottom of the house. Coupled with the publicity from Fred and others, Slater The four members of Lin's group instantly became celebrities. They made trouble for the freshmen in front of a professor, and of course they got points deducted.

The four Slytherin students suddenly became "heroes" among countless people. Naturally, the Slytherin students did not give the four "traitors" a good look. Due to their "brainless behavior", Slytherin directly lost the chance to compete for the House Cup.

Of course, Snape's face was also very dark. After all, a professor directly pointed out that several senior students in his college actually licked their faces to bully a freshman. Did he even lose his face?
