In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

The first contact with Dumbledore did not last long. At noon, Dumbledore said that he had more things to do and ended the Floo Network call.

However, although the time was short, it obviously made the students on the entire ship more energetic.

Fox took away the diary that Jon found in Azkaban as well as Scabior and McNeil. The floo powder sent by Jon also gave them a two-way communication channel with the professors.

But before ending the call, Dumbledore also reminded Jon not to use this floo network casually unless it was an emergency.

Voldemort is monitoring and controlling the floo network throughout France. If it is used too frequently, it will be easy for him to discover problems.

The Hogwarts' sailing speed on the sea was not slow. By the time they entered December, they had completely left the North Sea and reached the Norwegian Sea.

The further north you go, the colder it gets.

Fortunately, although the students were a little tired of the day-to-day sailing life, and the fresh sea surface and scenery became boring at first, in general, everyone's mental state was positive.

Especially when Christmas is coming soon this year.

They had already spent Halloween at sea and were looking forward to the coming Christmas. In the second week of December, less than three weeks later, the second fishing competition at Hogwarts also began. .

Although Jon didn't mean to disapprove, after all, there were very few entertainment activities on the boat, and only fishing had never been used as a pastime on land before. However, he still expressed his disapproval of holding the second fishing event at such a time. Game was left speechless, especially when hearing what George had to say when he applied for approval for the event.

"It's too superficial to hold it based on time. Our fishing competition is based on sea areas. The fish species in the North Sea are definitely different from those in the Norwegian Sea. This certainly makes sense to hold the second competition immediately!"

What he said was plausible, and Jon made some comments, but of course he didn't mean to disagree.

Fishing competition, a new entertainment project that only appeared after going to sea, brought great enthusiasm to the students on the boat.

More students participated this time. The rules of the competition are that you need to bring your own fishing rods. The competition lasts for a whole day on Saturday when there are no classes. In the end, the rankings will be based on the weight of the individual catches.

Of course, there are no fishing rods on the boat. The fishing rods used by the contestants are all made by themselves using the Transformation Technique. This sets a threshold for some lower-level students who have not yet reached the standard of Transformation Technique. However, they can also find senior students. help.

The champion of the first fishing competition was Justin. It is said that when he was still at home, he often went fishing with his father on the river and had rich theoretical experience. Later, he caught a small fish by accident. Shark (that shark could have broken free from the hook and broken the fishing line, but the moment it emerged from the sea, Justin accurately cast a petrifying spell on it).

Of course, this is also the first time that there are not many students participating in the fishing competition. Everyone has never fished before, so they are a little timid, but now many people have been intrigued. During the period of leaving Azkaban Island A lot of practical experience accumulated over time.

On the day when the competition started, the deck was full of students. The participating students found their positions around the deck. Finally, under the order of the referee Nick, everyone began to put bait and hook.

Jon was also in the audience. He had never even touched a fishing rod before, so he did not participate in the competition, but it was quite interesting to see the regretful expressions of these young fishermen when they had empty hooks.

Justin, the previous champion, was very ambitious for this consecutive championship, but his luck didn't look good. This time he didn't catch a single fish in the whole morning, but some bugs.

"The seventh loba! Well done, Justin! You have the most hook bites this morning. Unfortunately, this is a fishing competition, not a bug fishing competition. Bugs cannot be counted in the weight of the catch."

Nick was floating in the air, looking at the fat insect twisting its body on Justin's fishhook, and praised it loudly.

But his praise caused a group of people around him to burst into laughter.

"Maybe the fish in the Norwegian Sea don't like you. Maybe they love me more."

Ron next to Justin said proudly that he had gained a lot from his bucket and was at least in the top three among all the players.

Jon looked at the bugs that Justin threw into his bucket angrily, and said to Gabrielle and Hermione beside him with some confusion.

"Maybe it's not that Justin is unlucky. Creatures like Loba worm should not be caught by people."

"Why?" Gabrielle's face was full of curiosity, "Don't they have mouths? Can't they eat fish bait?"

Hermione, who often spent time in the library, explained to her.

"It's not because they have no mouths. This kind of bug is a magical animal classified as xxx level by the Ministry of Magic. They generally only live on the bottom of the sea. Justin's fishing rod and the length of the fishing line obviously cannot reach the bottom of the sea. .”

Gabri's transparent little face was suddenly filled with surprise when she understood.

"Then how did he catch it?"

Just when Gabrielle asked the question and Justin threw the fishhook into the sea, a huge force suddenly pulled the fishhook!

The fishing rod he conjured up with his own hands instantly bent into an arc, and he almost missed his grip and let the fishing rod fall out of his hands!

"There's something big taking the bait! There's something big!" he shouted excitedly.

The eyes of everyone around him were attracted to him again. Many people were eager to try, but no one came up to help. The rules stipulated that if you want to be included in the score, you must catch it yourself. Of course, there is no restriction on the use of magic.

While firmly grasping the fishing rod, he quickly drew out his wand and aimed it at the point where the fishing line contacted the sea surface with great experience.

Ron, who was still raving at first, could only look on with envy now. Just looking at the strength of this fish's struggle, he was sure that its weight would be worthy of what he had caught all morning. A bucket.

Justin did not compete with the fish in the sea. After the big fish took the bait, the test of the angler's skills began. When he was about to test the strength of the fish, the force transmitted from the fishing rod suddenly became much lighter. .

He lifted the hook almost effortlessly.

But what emerged from the water with his hook was not a big fish at all, but an arm like a human!
