"I didn't expect to meet you so soon, Senior Sister Carol!"

"Yes, Mike. Let me see how much you have learned from Professor Fleeve."

Because both of them deliberately lowered their voices, the conversation full of gunpowder was only heard by the few people on the stage. After hearing the conversation between them, Lohart unconsciously smiled on his face, and then he quickly suppressed it.

After Mike and Carol finished the draw of the lottery, the other players quickly took their own draws. Every time Lohat held up the note and announced the number, there was a burst of cheers from the audience.

Although I knew that it was not good to think so, Mike still found this scene very funny. These audiences were like robots, controlled by Lockhart, the "mechanic".

With the lottery draw, the schedule for the first Hogwarts Duel Competition to 8 to 4 was officially released.

Game 1, Mike vs. Carol

Game 2, Cedric vs. Slytherin's Silpa (passerby)

The third game, Gryffindor's male student union president Bruno vs Gryffindor's Maupas (passerby)

Game 4, Slytherin's Willy vs Slytherin's Card (passerby)

Everyone at Hogwarts was actually not satisfied with this list because it was too suspicious.

Except for Cedric, the other three games were all civil wars in the same academy, and all of these four games were directed by seed players from the four major academys against self-reliant players who advanced from the auditions.

This makes people wonder if the lottery box was tampered with, thus deliberately achieving such a controversial and topical result.

But even so, the audience gave them the biggest applause when the list was released. After all, even if they didn't say it, everyone actually had a certain jealousy towards the seed contestants of their own academy.

Why can you skip the previous game and advance to the quarterfinals? Why are you selected instead of me?

Out of this jealousy, everyone hopes that those contestants who walk on that stage step by step can defeat those seed contestants who walk on the back door. After all, at that time, they will be able to say sarcastic words like "Anyway, they will lose, I can do it."

But will the fact really develop as they hoped?

At least Mike was sure that he and Cedric would never lose to their respective opponents.

After the lottery ceremony, McCha had just left the auditorium from the backstage and ran into Franklin who was waiting outside the door.

"Mike, you're finally out!" Franklin said in a low mood. "It's so bad to play Carol's senior sister in eight and two. Damn Lockhart must have tampered with the lottery box!"

Franklin in front of him was like a frosted eggplant. Mike looked at him like this and showed a confident smile and said arrogantly: "It doesn't matter, I will win the honor of winning the championship anyway, whether it is Ravenclaw's or mine!"

"But, but Carol is very strong. She is a seventh-grade senior." It seemed that she was shocked by Mike's confident speech. Franklin stuttered a little when he spoke. "Besides, Carol can become a groundhog. I've inquired about it. That's a very powerful human deformation technique."

"Kangbeng! That's Animagus, brother!"

Seeing Franklin still at a loss, Mike explained helplessly: "Aren't you not taking the transformation class well? Animagus Transformation is a very advanced transformation technique. People who have learned this transformation can turn themselves into an animal, and those who have learned this transformation are called Animagus.

Although Animagus' Transformation seems very powerful, it is highly restrictive.

First of all, it is extremely difficult. Since Animagus's ability to become an animal is often used for crimes, the Ministry of Magic requires all Animagus to register at the Ministry of Magic. This is both a praise and publicity for these Animagus and supervision of them. There are only seven Animagus registered in this century, and Professor McGonagall is one of them.

The reason why there are so few is that it is too difficult. In the process of practicing Animagus, learners have a high probability of failure. The price of failure is to become a half-human and half-beast monster, or lose their self-consciousness and become a completely wild beast.

Secondly, Animagus cannot become any animal at will. Each person can only become a fixed creature. What animal can become is related to the character and weight of the caster, and he cannot become a magic creature. Another interesting point is that Animagus's outfit before he transforms will be reflected in the appearance of the changed animals.

Take Carol for example. The fur she turned into in the game last time was the same as that of Hogwarts' robe, and there was also a sky blue fur representing the Ravenclaw tie between her neck.

Carol's Animagus' transformation also exposes her personality traits from the side. She is good at socializing and will try to avoid head-on confrontation with others, but she can show infinite courage in critical moments, etc.

Finally, because of the ability to become a magical creature, Animagus is really not strong, especially Carol's transformation is still a groundhog. It may also be effective when others do not know about it, but it is really useless after it is exposed."

After listening to Mike's story patiently, Franklin's confused face was filled with unconsciousness. After a while, he replied: "How did you know so much strange knowledge? How could I remember that your transformation skills were not very good?"

Seeing Franklin's reaction, Mike knew that all the words he had just said were in vain. He shook his head helplessly and stopped talking. He turned around and walked towards Professor Fleevy's office, while Franklin followed behind Mike.

In the past few days, due to a comprehensive search of the place where the crown was discovered, Mike has been banned from entering the room for responsiveness to practice spells. Fortunately, Professor Flevy had already anticipated this before leaving and gave Mike the key to his office so that Mike could practice in the hidden spell training ground in his office.

Although the training room that Professor Flevy spent a huge amount of money to build in his office is still a little worse than the room for responsiveness, Mike was already very satisfied at this moment.
