The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 332: Mermaid girl
The upgrade of the Renewal Mantra didn't actually surprise Link too much.
He is very familiar with the first magic wand he has mastered when he travels to this world.
The abilities gained after upgrading are nothing more than an increase in the range of spells, an increase in spell power, and the ability to cast full spells ignoring the limitation of ‘reserved containers’.
The last thing that really improves Link's combat effectiveness is the last one.
This caused Link to almost acquire the ability to control and make liquids freely.
He just thought about it a little bit and developed an extremely fast waterjet and a derivative method of ice control based on the principle of Muggle waterjet machine and running water cooling.
But to say that the truly terrifying means of attack is actually to pour water directly into the enemy's body to cause damage.
In the past, Link often used this trick, but as a general-purpose tool, the flying speed of the spell is too slow, and its penetrating ability is too poor. People can stop it with any defensive spell. Come down, so I don’t use it much later.
But after the renewal of the spell and promotion to lv6, these restrictions no longer exist, and Link naturally feels that this method can be re-added to his primary attack method in the future.
After all, this kind of killing technique, which seems to be extremely strange to outsiders, is simply born for assassination.
But the above methods of use were actually what Link had expected earlier. What really surprised Link was that he was surprised to find that the power of cursing seemed to be used in combination with the power of water control.
Between these two forces, there are even signs that they may be moderately merged.
Of course, this is also an accidental discovery of Link. It is still in the exploratory stage. It is still a long way to develop a method that can be used in actual combat in a short period of time.
The smell of the "Tibet Room" that was burnt to the ground is really horrible.
So after experimenting and summarizing his newly acquired abilities, Link immediately switched the room with the responsive room to the “Nature Reserve Mode” used for rest on weekdays, releasing Arkham and Yo-Yo and letting them follow. Tousgar Sahuan put on his blindfold and slept in the recliner.
He slept all afternoon, and only woke up dazedly in the evening.
To be precise, Link should have been pecked awake.
And the culprit was Phoenix Fox, who was standing on his chest and protruding at the moment.
"Yeah!"
Fox saw Link finally awakened and happily spread his wings.
Arkham and Yo-Yo on the side of also approached, first greeted Phoenix Fox intimately, and then stared directly at Link.
They are hungry.
"Okay, OK, I'll cook for you."
Link got up with difficulty, stuffed two'hairy coconuts' for the yo-yo, and threw a beef thigh to Arkham again, and then regained his attention to Phoenix Fox, who was watching Arkham and the others eat with curiosity. .
"Dumbledore asked you to tell me to go to the meeting, right?"
Link said softly, who hadn't fully recovered.
He was not surprised that Dumbledore was able to find him. How could the headmaster of Hogwarts be unaware of the situation in the responsive room.
I didn't say it before, but the probability is just acquiescence.
Fox screamed again when he heard the words and nodded happily.
Looking at Fox's appearance, Link suddenly thought of the jar of Phoenix tears that Dumbledore took out last night.
God knows how Dumbledore exploited and tortured Fox to save so many tears!
"Poor little guy."
Link said with a pity on his face, and he touched the ‘dumb hair’ on Fox’s head as he said, “Or you will follow me in the future? Don’t give your life to that bad old man Dumbledore.”
"Yeah?"
The sweet soft moan sounded again.
Phoenix Fox tilted his head, a touch of confusion appeared on his face very humane, he seemed to be saying to Link, ‘I don’t understand people, what are you talking about? ’.
Link was also taken aback when he saw this. Fox's IQ was obviously higher than he had imagined, even the advanced skill of pretending to be stupid.
But even if he fails to dig the foot of the wall, he is not angry. He touched Fox's head again and said:
"Well, don't fool you, take me there quickly."
Sure enough, Fox became able to understand people again, and he fluttered his wings directly, and the flames on his body quickly wrapped Link, and then this person quickly disappeared, leaving only Arkham and they were still concentrating on cooking. .
……
In a small closet next to the Hogwarts principal’s room, Dumbledore, Maxim, Karkaroff and other referees in the Triwizard Tournament, as well as Moody and Snape, two Dumbledore’s right-hand men, are surrounding Sitting at a long dining table.
The only lighting equipment in the room is the candles standing in the center of the dining table, so the surroundings look very dim.
Under the shining of the fire, the people in this circle who have been silent also looked very gloomy.
In fact, their mood is indeed not very good.
Dumbledore suddenly informed them to come to a small banquet today, but they have been present for almost an hour now, but the banquet has not started yet.
Seeing this now, Dumbledore was clearly waiting for someone.
This is a bit too much!
You must know that the people who came to the banquet today are all big people, and usually others are waiting for them!
"Guru!"
Feeling the depressive atmosphere at the scene, Bagman swallowed. He felt that someone was about to break out at the scene.
Realizing this, Bagman forced a smile and looked at Dumbledore who was also smiling.
He was about to speak something to ease the atmosphere.
Just before he could speak, a bright flame suddenly burst out from behind Dumbledore.
Then, Link, who carried Phoenix Fox on his shoulder, appeared in front of everyone.
"Wow! This is going to be a dinner party!"
Link walked out of the flame with a smile.
As soon as he saw the arrangement, he knew that Dumbledore wanted to talk about things at the dinner table.
Telling the truth is really rare in Europe and the United States where the "table discussion culture" is not very strong.
"Link, how are you resting?" Dumbledore's smile became brighter, and he even waved his hand to help Linkla open the chair, motioning him to sit in his lower position.
Link will not be polite to this.
"Since everyone is here, let's have a banquet!"
Dumbledore gave an order, and finally hot food appeared on the dinner plate in front of everyone.
Then Dumbledore patted Link on the shoulder with great enthusiasm and said:
"Link, you want to eat more. Today's appetizer is buttery pumpkin soup specially prepared for you."
"Really! Thank you Principal Dumbledore!"
Link, who slept for a whole afternoon, was already starving, and directly turned on the dry meal mode.
Dumbledore beside was watching Link eat with a smile, as if he was already full.
The faces of Maxim and Karkaroff in the audience became even more embarrassed.
They really didn't expect that the person who made them wait for nearly an hour would be such a junior guy like Link!
This is an insult to them!
So, a weird scene appeared.
Link was the only one in the small secret room to feast on, and the rest stared at him with different expressions.
"Ahem!"
Karkaroff finally couldn't hold it back anymore, and he wanted to open his mouth and accuse Dumbledore and Link with a strange cough, so as to save the face he had lost and gain some benefits by the way.
But the next moment Link, who was still cooking, frowned first and said:
"Principal Karkaroff, we are still eating, why don't you cough with someone behind you? How rude!"
After saying that, Link also pushed forward the buttery pumpkin soup that he had eaten more than half, as if it was really disgusting to be eaten by Karkaroff.
"you!"
Karkaroff was so angry that his long face instantly turned red, but he couldn't speak because of his reasons, so he could only stretch out his trembling fingers and point to Link.
"Hehehe!"
Link is not afraid at all, sneered and looked at him.
His current chanting spell is about to rise to lv4, and the hostility in the hearts of the Karkaroff group can't help him at all.
Maxim at the side shook his head helplessly.
She was actually fighting like Karkaroff in her heart. The reason why she didn't speak just now was because she wanted Karkaroff to be the first bird.
But the final result is very bad, Karkaroff is too stupid.
She stood up straight. Due to her figure and the light, this directly caused her to look a lot more serious, which naturally attracted the attention of others at the table.
"Albus, what is the purpose of calling us here today?"
Maxim said directly.
Dumbledore smiled unabatedly:
"Naturally, it is for the third project of the Triwizard Tournament. After so long of planning, I and the Ministry of Magic have already devised a preliminary plan. I want to come and discuss it with you."
"If this is the case, why is Link here? If you think he is necessary to participate in today's discussion as a warrior, then why didn't Furong and the other warriors come?
Dumbledore, aren’t you deliberately favoring the warrior of your school? "
Maxime narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
She had already guessed the topic of today, and the reason for asking it knowingly was to elicit that passage.
This is also the most dissatisfied point.
In her opinion, Dumbledore is completely shameless!
At this time, Karkaroff finally reacted and hurriedly echoed:
"Yes! That's right! You must give us an explanation!"
Dumbledore didn't speak, he didn't even look at Maxim and Karkaroff, but instead set his gaze on Link.
Link also didn't listen to Maxim's speech, because he found something more interesting.
In today's banquet, apart from those he knows well, it seems that a strange guest has arrived.
That is a beautiful mermaid girl!
The other party has snow-white skin that is very different from ordinary mermaid, with smooth and shiny black long hair, wearing a beautiful dress made of seaweed gems and pearl shells, and looks sweet, far from the mermaid in the super long bathroom portrait.
The most important thing is that there is a rare innocence in her pair of eyes that glow like treasures.
At the moment he met him, Link felt his heartbeat stop.
"Well!"
Link can't help but sigh softly.
He was a little curious about how the mermaid appeared in the land castle of Hogwarts. Could it be that her fishtail-shaped lower body was immersed in a large fish tank?
Link is not quite sure about this.
Because he found that the mermaid girl at this moment seemed to be very short of water.
I saw her holding a large water bottle and drinking constantly, and from time to time she would pour some on her body to keep it moist.
'S practice directly caused the ground and walls around her to become a mess, full of water stains.
The other guests also hid away, as if they were afraid of being splashed by the water she spilled.
How could Link, who claimed to be a gentleman, watched the girl in trouble, he stretched out his hand and tapped it lightly, and a thick mist of water instantly enveloped the mermaid girl.
This abrupt change made the fish girl surprised, but she looked at Link almost instantly, and then gave Link a smile.
Link fell into a brief state of absentia again. He felt that the mermaid girl's smile seemed to have a magical power that could not even resist Occlumency, prompting him to want to contact each other.
Just then, Dumbledore's voice suddenly rang.
"Wow, how did you do this?"
Link gave him an angry look, pretending to be nonchalant:
"It's a little magic, no big deal."
"is it?"
Dumbledore murmured slightly and meaningfully as he watched the mist condensed around the mermaid girl, his smile brightened.
Then he said to Maxim:
"Sorry~lightnovelpub.net~Olim, I just lost my mind.
Regarding your question, I can answer you perfectly.
The reason why Link was able to appear here, to participate in our discussion about the third project is not because of his identity as a warrior, but because the Ferry family as the board of directors of Hogwarts will be the third The project provides security services outside Hogwarts, and Link is here on behalf of the Foley family. "
Dumbledore’s explanation is totally unreasonable in the strict sense, and there are too many rebuttals.
But Maxim closed his mouth when he heard the words, and only glanced at Harry with a complicated expression.
She is not a fool, and she can naturally see how subtle is the silent fog production link that Link has just performed.
This made her uncontrollably think of Link's use of the power of the curse.
Link didn't know that his ability to control attribute magic at will is actually an important symbol of legendary wizards like Dumbledore and Voldemort, and it is also the biggest bottleneck for ordinary wizards who want to be promoted to legend.
Link is still far from the legend in terms of magical power, but a discerning person like Maxim knows that the biggest stone blocking his way forward is actually long gone.
Besides, at a young age, Link seems to have mastered another path to freely control the liquid magic.
Is this really still a human?
Maxim not only uttered the deepest sigh!
