At this time, they had arrived at the entrance of the Auror application office. Unlike the striker registration office, the entrance of the Auror registration office was deserted and no one was seen. After all, being an Auror is more demanding and dangerous...

Lockhart opened the door and found that Albert and Scrimgeour's son were sitting behind the table, one flipping through the applicant's information on the table, and the other holding his chin in his hand and looking bored.

——

"Willow, why are you here, why don't you look at your father?" Lockhart asked, frowning.

"He woke up in the morning and insisted on rushing me to the Ministry of Magic to help, so here I am..."

"Awake?" Lockhart raised his eyebrows. "Okay, now I'll give you two things to do. Give these two lads some Veritaserum."

"Harry still wants to drink Veritaserum?" Albert looked surprised. "Now our Veritaserum is completely dependent on Professor Snape's support and the Ministry of Magic's inventory, so it can't be wasted like this."

"Is that so..." Lockhart thought about it too. "Then forget it, register them. Others still need to check when they come. Don't save what you shouldn't."

"knowledge."

——

After a simple registration, the two boys have become reserve Aurors, because the senior Aurors have been wiped out, and now Lockhart has to play as an instructor.

"Let's go, take you to a cubicle of your own, which is your future Auror office." Lockhart led the three young men out of the application office: "I have taught you all the combat skills, In fact, your strength has far surpassed that of ordinary wizards, and if you want to improve your combat ability, you can only go to actual combat."

Lockhart put his arms around Hermione's shoulders and walked towards the elevator: "But Aurors are not hitmen, and they are not Aurors who can beat them even if they are qualified. You just joined today. I want to teach you the basic principles of Aurors first."

He took out three booklets and handed them to three people, including Hermione. As soon as Hermione received it, she couldn't wait to open it and read it.

"The Auror Code." Hermione read it out, "It's such a vulgar name, and it's not a norm."

"It would be nice if it was "How the Aurors Are Made", or "The Aurors Quickly in Thirty Days"." Harry also opened the booklet.

"Good advice. But 30 days?" Lockhart smiled. "Indeed, you don't need 30 days to learn everything in this booklet. But to truly become a qualified Auror, it takes 300 days. Not enough. In theory, you have to follow an old Auror for two to three years of internship - sorry, we don't have that many Aurors right now, so it's very likely that you newcomers will need to collaborate with each other and spend the newbie period together. already."

"We'll take care of ourselves," Harry said.

"Let's turn to the title page of the booklet now. Before you start studying, you must memorize the Thirteen Auror Rules and keep them in your heart." Lockhart himself took out a copy and opened the cover: "The first rule : Always be vigilant, I won't explain this, everyone can understand it, Mad Eye likes to talk about this sentence. I don't need to say more about the importance!"

"Well, always be vigilant, always be vigilant, always be vigilant..." Hermione couldn't help but read it a few times. She relied on this trick to carry things back when she was a student.

"Almost forgot to mention, this Auror Code is said to have been rewritten by Moody's more than two decades ago," Lockhart said. It's understandable not to despise any enemy. Why was the mysterious man killed by Harry's mother with 'sacrifice protection'? If he beat Harry's mother with a paralyzing spell first, so that he can't resist. Oh- - Of course, I'm not teaching you to learn how Voldemort kills innocents indiscriminately, but you must remember that when dealing with a threatening object, you must first make the other party lose the ability to resist. Disarming is not enough, because some magic can be done without a wand cast."

"Understood." Harry nodded.

"Third rule. Keep the protection spell at all times, don't ask why, just do it! When you have been saved a few lives by this good habit, you will naturally understand its importance." Lockhart laughed laugh. "Rule 4. Attack the person with the wand at you first. This is similar to rule 2, knowing that there are many ways to get someone who doesn't seem to hurt you to cast a spell on you - such as the potion Body, Imperius, or even someone you trust actually defected, etc. Anyway, if someone suddenly points a wand at you for no reason, don't be foolish to ask what happened. Get ready to fight immediately."

"Yeah." The three young people just nodded in agreement.

"Similarly, there are no special circumstances - such as: healing others, or adding status to teammates during battle, concealment, iron armor, etc... It is very impolite to use a wand to face others, and such jokes are not allowed. Lockhart recalled several Aurors he knew, and suddenly felt a little emotional. "Article 5, the more desperate the situation is, the more you need to be calm and calm. Understand it for yourself, you are all people who have experienced battles. Article 6, use the death curse to deal with criminals who may use the death curse - it is written like this, But don't take it narrowly, and if you're fighting a dark wizard who's terribly bad for you, be sure to hit him with whatever spell you can. Don't get a disarming spell like Harry did when he was a kid—"

Both Hermione and Ron glanced at the Savior, and Harry scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Seventh, don't think it's not feasible before trying all the methods, Ron should remember this, Harry should have a deep understanding, remember how many difficulties we encountered on the way to escape, if you think we can't win, then If you give up, you will not know where you will be buried together for a long time. The eighth rule is to continuously strengthen your own strength is the best self-protection, and you can experience it yourself. The ninth rule, when you perform special tasks, don't care about those wizard methods, you guys I know, Aurors have special immunity. This privilege still exists in the new Wizarding Law, but it cannot be used as an excuse for chaos. The attitude of the Aurors is very loose and strict - if it is to complete the task, Killing and setting fires by any means is acceptable, but if you are not on a mission, even punching a Muggle will be criticized."

"It's so miserable..." Harry was a little disturbed.

"Just kidding, if you do beat up a muggle, as long as you don't take the initiative to say who is going to control you! Item 10, think about the superior's order, because he may also be under the Imperius Curse, this requirement It's a bit high, but if the above order is too outrageous, it goes without saying that the Aurors will doubt it. In fact, I always feel that you will understand if these few are not written in, maybe Mad Eye is just trying to make up for thirteen."

"Why, Mad-Eye likes the number thirteen?" Hermione asked, tilting her head. "But Muggles and wizards think thirteen is unlucky."

"Maybe he doesn't like it, Crazy Eye... how can I put it, he always seems to be fearless. He prefers to do what others don't dare to do. He prefers to do what others think is unlucky." Lockhart said a little helplessly. : "He still tells us triumphantly not to be superstitious..."

"But he's still dead." Ron said sadly, "I can't help but believe in evil."

"Remember the eighth rule. Constantly strengthening one's own strength is the best self-protection. Nothing else can protect the Aurors who are out on a mission." Lockhart corrected Ron's thoughts seriously. "I heard Rufus say that there were only seven before Moody's forcibly changed the code to thirteen. But such an auspicious number did not prevent the annual sacrifice of Aurors... Instead, Moody appeared, with Bold, careful and superb wizard fighting skills caught the dark wizard in one breath, and even Azkaban was specially expanded once - this way of suppressing violence with violence, but the Auror's mission sacrifice rate was reduced to the lowest point. Anyway, my two When I was about ten years old, I followed Mad Eye for more than two years, and I never heard of an Auror being sacrificed."

"That's how it is. Numbers are not auspicious or unlucky. Some numbers seem to be magical, but they have some special places in mathematical research and actual calculations~lightnovelpub.net~ Hermione said: "As for ten The three unlucky ones are derived from fairy tales, but most of the myths were made up by our ancestors who were bored and had no entertainment activities. It's just that people at the time had never seen a "novel" or been poisoned by rumors, and they all subconsciously took what others said seriously. And the storytellers don't know what to tell the listeners after finishing the story, 'the above is purely fictional', and even have the idea of ​​deceiving others to make their own profits... So it is passed down from generation to generation, and things that are made up are just It has become a custom or a myth. "

"It makes sense, Hermione." Lockhart smiled. "Maybe it's like this. Well, whether these thirteen rules are hard or not, we'll just remember them all. Rule 11: Don't hesitate. Survive at all costs, every Auror is a precious resource - run away or call someone if you can't beat a dark wizard, don't get angry, you are not fighting alone, the whole Ministry of Magic is standing behind the Auror. Because of confidentiality, unless you are as fierce as Mad Eye and the Ministry of Magic is determined to make you a well-known Auror, even if you succeed as a hero, only your colleagues will know, and it will not make headlines... Article 12, too I think one of the most important rules: if you love your family, hide them. The reason why this rule is so impressive is that you remember the loyalty check I said a few minutes ago."

"remember."

"When I saw the 'parents' being caught in front of me, I was completely devastated..." Lockhart was not embarrassed about it, he loved his family, and there was no shame in it: "So when Mad-Eye told me to When I hid my family, I immediately kept this one firmly in my heart, and I will never forget it.”
