Link was led by Krum all the way into Durmstrang Castle.

What they walked through was not the gate carefully arranged by Beckman, but a small gate on the edge of the castle.

And behind the small door, there is a long and narrow corridor.

Compared with the main entrance road, which is full of flowers and magic lampstones, this place looks like a dungeon.

Perhaps he also felt that the environment here was a bit bad, and Krum explained as soon as he came in:

"This is a short path to the Quidditch pitch. I'll show you the pitch first. Also, Link, don't look at this place is smaller and dirty, but it's much better than before. "

"Really?" Link glanced at Krum and said, "I have a good memory. It seems that when I came to Durmstrang last time, the corridors I passed by were better than here, right?"

"That's just because the old principal didn't let you see it." Krum said firmly, "They are going to rely on you to invest in saving Durmstrang, and they will naturally hide those dirty places. Try to show you the good side of the school. In fact, before Principal Beckman took over, the aisle we are walking through now was too shabby and abandoned.

That is, Principal Beckman wanted to restore Durmstrang's heyday as much as possible, so he cleaned up this place again. You can trust me at this point, I have lived in this school for nearly ten years, and there should be few people in Durmstrang who are more familiar with it than me! "

Link nodded nonchalantly.

Krum did not continue to explain, because with the previous conversation, the two had officially walked out of the passage and appeared on the Quidditch pitch that Krum had mentioned many times just now.

As soon as he came here, Link was shocked.

This is an extremely rare thing. After all, with the improvement of Link's strength and status, his knowledge is also growing at an extremely fast rate.

For now, there are very few things in this world that can shock him.

Even the Sky City I saw when I went to the International Federation of Wizards earlier only made Link feel interesting.

But the current Quidditch pitch at Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is clearly an exception.

This is not to say how luxurious the stadium is.

Because the biggest feature of this stadium is actually the "new" that Krum mentioned before.

But that's not much to brag about.

When any new Quidditch pitch is built, considering the service life, newer technologies and equipment on the market are often used to prevent the pitch from becoming obsolete.

And apart from being 'new', this Quidditch pitch is actually not very different from the Hogwarts pitch in terms of size and equipment.

What really surprised Link was the light blue magic shield that enveloped the entire stadium on top of the two of them.

Under the protection of the thin protective cover, the outside wind and snow could not penetrate into the stadium at all, and the temperature in the stadium was also maintained at close to 22 degrees, which is the most suitable temperature for the human body.

This directly caused the stadium to be as warm as spring with green grass.

Outside the stadium, it was icy and snowy, and there was even a spectacle of snow tornadoes hanging in the distance.

"The scenery is not bad, right? I remember when I first came to the newly built stadium, I was completely stunned. My classmates even knelt on the ground and kissed the lawn in excitement."

Krum said proudly with his hands on his waist.

When Link heard the words, he nodded intently and said:

"So how is this achieved?"

"It's very simple. The shield on our head to shield the wind and snow is a very ordinary magical protective layer. Its protection is not strong, and it is difficult to block even the most basic attack spells, but it can block the wind. The snow is also enough. In addition, the stadium and even the entire Durmstrang Castle have been equipped with constant temperature arrays and climate simulation arrays by Principal Beckman, which is why many Quidditch teams want to come here. The reason for training. Because this is the only place where you can simulate all kinds of climates while having a lot of new equipment, so that the team can fully train.”

"Did Beckman come up with this idea?"

"Of course, to be honest, this plan was originally designed to provide heating for Durmstrang Castle, but considering that the students also need sports and recreational activities in winter, the Quidditch pitch was rebuilt. In this way, the stadium rent will be able to subsidize the heating consumption of the castle."

Speaking of this, Krum suddenly looked around, seeing that no one was chasing after him, and then whispered, "The only bad thing is that Principal Beckman is stingy. The free heating in Durmstrang Castle has always been It's not very powerful, it's only about fifteen or sixteen degrees all the year round, and in terms of body sensation, it's still a bit cold."

"You can't blame him, after all, it's all free, and this type of heating shouldn't consume a small amount of resources, right?"

Link said with a bit of tears and laughter.

He still has some understanding of this type of formation.

Because there is a similar system in the Ministry of Magic.

The construction and use of this system is completely different from the heating and air-conditioning in Muggle society, because it needs to simulate the real climate and adjust it at will.

What can be used as a source of energy is no longer electricity or coal fire, but magic.

These magic powers are stored in an extremely complex array, and require daily maintenance and long-term magic power instillation, so the cost of use is very high, and only organizations such as the Ministry of Magic of various countries with a large number of spare wizard labor can afford it Affordable.

So Beckman is a little stingy, that's a normal thing.

If it is really open to use, Beckman will probably feel distressed no matter how rich he is.

When Krum heard this, he scratched his head and smiled and said:

"Of course we also know that the consumption in this area is relatively large, so we will not complain that Principal Beckman does not turn on the heating for us. I say this, just to let you know that Principal Beckman is still relatively frugal, and he definitely did not take The investment you gave is all over the place."

While Krum said this, Beckman and others happened to trot into the field.

They entered Durmstrang Castle from the main entrance, so they were a bit slower than Link and Krum.

The few people had just arrived and heard Krum's last words before they had time to speak. Facing Link's slightly smiling calm eyes, Beckman froze all of a sudden, and could only stand there and laugh awkwardly. .

In the end, Mrs. Foley stood up and took Link's hand and said:

"Don't forget the purpose of our visit this time, and don't do anything irrelevant."

Hearing that, the smile on Link's face became even stronger.

He smiled and nodded and said:

"Of course, I'm just joking with Grandpa Beckman (who is also called 'Grandpa' in the country)."

Link is telling the truth.

He doesn't really care if Beckman embezzles public funds or not.

Beckman gave him all the assets of the entire Beckman family. Even if he regrets it a little now, what if he embezzled public funds?

Link didn't think it was a big deal.

Because to be honest, to Link now, Jin Galleon is just a number, not money.

With his status, money has changed from gold coins to various resources in his eyes.

What's more, judging from the current situation, Beckman did not embezzle public funds. At best, he was a little too kind to Durmstrang's people.

Valley Line </span> But that's also a good thing.

Link can clearly sense the respect and gratitude of Durmstrang teachers and students around him through the passively activated Legilimency spell. Without Beckman's almost exaggerated kindness, he would not have been in Durmstrang all year round. How could it possibly be loved by these people?

And Beckman heard what Link said, and called his grandfather for the first time. The original embarrassment and tension disappeared instantly, and it was replaced by endless joy.

In fact, he doesn't value things like wealth.

As the patriarch of the Beckman family, he has already enjoyed most of the luxury that can be enjoyed in this world.

Now that he is older, what he values ​​most has become family.

Seeing that Link and Mrs. Foley were about to go back to the castle, he hurriedly greeted the surrounding classmates to lead the way together, so that the welcoming ceremony, which had almost collapsed, could be put back on track.

However, with Krum as a stunner, this is also a difficult task.

Fortunately, this time Krum was relatively restrained. He didn't pull Link up to run to some inexplicable place like before, and was still within the range set by Beckman.

This also made the whole process of receiving Link a lot more normal.

What Link saw before his eyes were all the beautiful scenes that Beckman built with Link's investment.

For example, the climate change system that Krum mentioned earlier has been operated to the extreme today due to Beckman's intentional actions. The entire Durmstrang Castle, shrouded in wind and snow, is actually as warm as summer at the moment. day.

What's more outrageous is that Beckman also used the same technology as the Quidditch pitch to build a small tropical ecological garden in the atrium of the castle.

This is a scene that the students in Durmstrangley, who have lived in the bitter cold since childhood, have never seen in their lives.

According to Krum, this is also the favorite place for students and young couples, because they don't have to wear too thick clothes to stay here.

After saying that, he gave Link a wretched smile, which made Emily and Mrs. Foley couldn't help laughing, while Beckman glared at him fiercely.

In addition to the heating system, the interior of the current Durmstrang Castle has also been completely renovated.

Although its level is not as refined as Beauxbatons, and it does not have the atmosphere of Hogwarts, it can even be said that except for important places such as the auditorium and the reception room for foreign guests, the rest of the place is a bit rough, but it is finally better than the previous one. Durmstrang Castle is much better.

It can be seen that Beckman's work has been done quite well.

After walking all the way, Link, Mrs. Foley and the others showed sincere smiles on their faces.

Seeing that Link and others were in a good mood, Beckman asked tentatively:

"Link, what are you doing here this time?"

Hearing that, Link turned his head and glanced at Beckman, and the corners of his mouth rose even more.

Of course he knew that Beckman had heard what Mrs. Foley said to him earlier, so he felt a little uneasy.

But in fact, where did they come from and what business did they do?

Because of the fact that Beckman didn't have much contact with Link, he was still not very familiar with Link, which was far worse than the old Kled.

According to Link's habit, if it was serious business, he wouldn't bring Mrs. Foley and Emily at all.

In fact, the reason why Link and others came to Durmstrang on Christmas Day was simply because Link went to Professor Slughorn's Slug Club dinner on Christmas Eve yesterday, and then brought Emily returned to Forlì Castle for a family dinner.

This action made Mrs. Foley very angry.

She has been learning cooking from Little Button for several days, and that's why she made a pumpkin pot for Link yesterday.

But I never thought that Link would dare to be late!

So in order to punish Link, today's Durmstrang's itinerary was finalized by Mrs. Foley.

In other words, the visit that frightened Beckman was actually a trip on a whim of Mrs. Foley.

If Beckman knew the truth, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood.

Fortunately, Link had already prepared, and had already prepared a formal reason.

Thinking so, Link took a deep breath and said:

"You know, the situation has been a little tense recently, maybe it's time for Durmstrang's forces to strike."

Hearing that, Beckman raised his brows, feeling a little disappointed at first.

Because the reason he actually wanted to hear was that Link specially brought his fiancee and mother to visit his grandfather.

But soon he sorted out his emotions and became excited again and said:

"Link, you mean, the war is about to start?"

"I can't tell the time, but it's fast. At least the Ministry of Magic of the country has made preparations. When the war starts, it depends on when the French Ministry of Magic can give us an excuse that we can use."

Hearing what Link said, Beckman clenched his fists excitedly.

He is very clear.

Durmstrang has always been a force that Link has deliberately hidden. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

It was very important to Link.

It is precisely because of this that Link entrusted him with the important task of stationing him in Durmstrang as the principal. No special or large-scale operation would not mobilize him at all.

This is actually a kind of exclusion, a kind of Link, or the exclusion of him from the power circle of the Foley family.

But Beckman couldn't complain about that.

Because this is indeed a crucial job, it is simply a kind of extreme trust that Link put such an important job and such a huge resource under his control.

It would be too much for him to speak ill of Link again.

However, Beckman was still very uncomfortable.

He was no longer interested in power and wealth, he just wanted to be by his daughter's side.

And now, Durmstrang's power is about to be activated, which means that his mission is coming to an end.

Will he be able to return to his daughter after the mission is over?

How could Beckman not be excited by this?

After taking several deep breaths in a row, Beckman smiled confidently:

"I understand, Link, you are here for the pre-war parade. It doesn't matter, let me show you Durmstrang's current strength!"
