Hogwarts Card System

"Huh~huh~ it's okay...thank you, thank you!" The dwarf captain Mr. Shiwaluo headed back replied.

Clara quickly stood up and introduced to both parties - Ted and Jerry were her classmates.

Don't tell me, even the dwarves and gnomes in Castle Hammer have heard of Ted's name.

It was mainly about the spread of the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets incident during the holiday last month. It was published in the newspaper for several days in a row, and the discussion became lively. And Ted, as a man of the day on campus, has also begun to be known by people outside the school.

Fort Hammer, where the dwarves and gnomes live, has more frequent and closer contact with the magic world than the people of Deckmond Village. news-clever.

The dwarves still have a shop in Diagon Alley! Although it is already in a half-yellow state~

The three dwarves were all in a state of embarrassment. Their braided beards were messy and covered in dust from grass stalks, not to mention their bodies.

The three dwarves took off their helmets, and their heads were sweating and steaming.

It was a very hot day in July, and I fought with a giant beast for more than ten minutes, almost without heatstroke!

Although dwarves generally look old-fashioned, they can tell the approximate age group from their appearance.

Among the three dwarves, Swallow and the other are middle-aged, and the other looks a little immature. They secretly observe Ted with curiosity in their eyes, obviously very young.

Two dwarves, except for Clara, the other has a goatee and is slightly bald. It is Clara's uncle Milhow Flash.

He's a crappy illusionist/bad magic engineer - Ted's result from the fight just now.

The purpose of this team's trip coincides with Ted's and the others, and they are also here to investigate the anomaly.

The center of this phenomenon seems to be closer to Castle Hammer, and they discovered it earlier. It's just that they are more inclined to investigate and solve problems by themselves than Decarmond's demihumans, and their dependence on the Ministry of Magic is very low.

The team of Swallow and Clara is one of them.

Clara said: "When I was fighting just now, I observed that there were burn marks on the body of that huge eagle-headed monster..."

"Traces of burns? Have you investigated any information now?"

Swallow said: "We have narrowed down a certain range..."

That is, it has not been found.

This place is about ten kilometers away from Fort Hammer, and the sun is already westward. Swallow and others warmly invited them to be guests, and we must thank them very much.

So the three of Ted followed them to Fort Hammer as a guest.

The two sides have the same goal, and maybe they can cooperate!

...

Thunder Peak is considered a relatively high peak in the Misty Mountains, because on the north side of the mountain, there are thunderstorm clouds on the top of the mountain all the year round, and the sound of thunder is constant all the year round, so it is called Thunder Peak.

The Hammer Fort is a mountain fort dug on a higher mountainside.

It is said that the entire bunker took three years and six months to take shape, and a small town was dug out of the rocks in the mountain, and it has been carefully crafted every year for the next few years. As for the expansion, that's not the case. Because of the population problem...

There are a total of 42 dwarves in Castle Hammer, with about two to three hundred people.

And the dwarves are even fewer, less than two hundred.

There are barely 500 people on both sides, and the bunker is too big and empty.

However, it is said that in other European countries, small batches of dwarves and other intelligent races from other worlds have also been discovered...

Dwarves have always liked to build towns underground or in mountains, because they are good at mining and smelting. The ore veins are naturally underground, and smelting generally uses geothermal energy.

The dwarves didn't like living underground, but because they huddled together with the dwarves for warmth, they lived underground.

The entrance of Hammer Castle is quite magnificent. The gate is eight meters high and four meters wide. There are some carvings on the two half-meter-thick stone gates—the carvings are some of the ones that dwarves and gnomes worked together to dig Hammer Castle a few years ago. screen.

After entering the gate, there is something like a shadow wall facing you. The road is separated to the left and right, which should have a certain defensive effect.

If a foreign enemy invades, there is no way to drive straight in.

Bypassing the "shadow wall", there is a long mountain passage, which is ten meters high and seven or eight meters wide from left to right. At the entrance are two stone statues five to six meters high - an old dwarf and a goat. Hu long-haired dwarf shakes hands.

Ted and the others entered Fort Hammer under the hands of the two.

Fort Hammer has a huge central square, about half the size of a football field, surrounded by a circle of excavated stone houses.

Moreover, the location of this square is a hollow mountainside, so the height is very high, surrounded by two or three floors of stone houses of different sizes and not aligned.

Around the square, apart from the road that Ted and the others came from, there are five other exits, leading to different places, such as mines, smelting areas, and artisan areas.

A group of people have been greeted by many dwarves standing guard since they were outside the gate. That Swallow looks quite prestigious.

He directly took Ted and the others to a nearby tavern, without looking at the number plate engraved on the door, Ted and the others could hear the yelling inside from a long distance away.

After pushing the door open, someone greeted: "Hey, Swallow, how are you doing? Did you find any clues?"

Swallow took off his helmet and threw it on the table "Duang~", "Don't mention it! I didn't find any valuable clues. Instead, I encountered a violent monster, which almost turned our beatings on their backs. Look at Sara Si's beard was burnt by the electric shock!"

The young dwarf in the team hurriedly said: "That's right, that monster with antlers, an eagle head and a moose body can breathe lightning!"

"Drink!" Many drinking buddies became excited when they heard this.

"Let's drink to the monster!"

Ted: ...huh?

"By the way! Forgot to introduce!" Swaro pulled Ted, "This little wizard is Ted Epifani, have you heard of it? Diagon Alley has been telling his story some time ago. Thanks With the help of him and his friends, we got rid of the monster without any damage. We give them a toast!"

"Aw~ Cheers!" The dwarves raised their oak wine glasses, the atmosphere was very warm!

Ted: I'm too young to drink alcohol!

In short, the dwarves are really enthusiastic, big pieces of meat, big glasses of wine, and laughing. Look at them having a good time.

The young dwarf in the team squeezed over: "Ted, can I call you that? My name is Jinli, Jinli Iron Felt, and this is the first time I have been on a mission with Mr. Swarrow, thanks to your help. I toast you!"

Ted smiled wryly and drank another glass.

However, he also discovered a new use of psychic energy - to break down alcohol.

From then on, Ted can be called a thousand cups.

Mr. Swallow has spoken, and today he pays the bill.

The hotel owner brought all kinds of wine and meat to the top one after another, and those dwarves could also eat them.

Jerry on the side rubbed his round stomach, and said to Sydney with regret: "It's a pity that Ron is not here, or else let Ron compete with them for eating. No one can compare to Ron!"

Jin Li, a young dwarf on the side, was not convinced when he heard it: "That Ron you mentioned, is it very edible? I have been called an idiot since I was a child!"

Jerry slapped his thigh: "Nonsense, what is an idiot? An idiot is not as good as Ron!"

Alcoholic beverages are indispensable for a dwarf party. Even if the three of you are still children, the dwarfs still have various toasts waiting for you—to celebrate your beautiful tomorrow! Forever Young! Cheers to the next generation of friendship between dwarves and demihumans and wizards!

Good guy, you can't say a word "no"!

Or Ted rushing to sing a song, um, heavy metal rock, "I Want My Tears Back" by Nightwish!

"Sea King buys celery~" dubbed by suona—directly detonated the audience.

The dwarves didn't care about hospitality anymore, and started to drink with each other, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while!

After the meal, Sydney, whose face was flushed from drinking, supported Jerry, who was already unable to walk in a straight line, and complained, "They, they actually made Jerry drink several times!"

Well, if Jerry had your drinking capacity, at least those young dwarves would definitely be brought down.

Ted said: "That's right! Underage duck necks are also poured, too newborn!"

Sydney: "What duck neck?"

"Ah! I drank too much..."

...

A rare opportunity, Ted wanted to see the exclusive skills of dwarves and gnomes after dinner.

Don't tell me, he met another acquaintance - a dwarf student from Hogwarts, two grades higher than Ted and the others, Gryffindor who was in the same class as the twins, and Muradin Tunduo who started fifth grade.

Although we don't communicate much at ordinary times, it's not that we don't know each other.

It's easy to know someone, and Ted learned a lot about dwarves' rune magic from him.

When dwarves use magic, they often use it indirectly, using runes to inject various abilities into metal creations, and attach various states and the like.

The dwarf's magic technique is to use special skills to use magic power.

The two have nothing to do with each other, but the unexpected harmony can make up for each other's shortcomings.

This is also the reason why the two races have a good relationship and even live together.

The two races did not cherish themselves too much. Except for some high-end skills, many basic principles and materials were read by Ted.

This is also a deal between the Ministry of Magic and them - they can enter Hogwarts, or even join the Ministry of Magic, but they also have to share their own magic system.

Moreover, when Ted was on vacation in mid-June, he met Clara's parents on the platform. Their status in the dwarf clan was not low, which gave them a lot of convenience.

So Ted has gained a lot, and even gained an additional 345 experience points, which shows that the gains are indeed not small.
