"I thought a lot during the summer vacation."
Ethan walked slowly in front of the door.
The shadow cast by the spikes of the gate above his head moved and shifted across his pale face.
It exuded a sense of gloom and danger.
Even without being specifically reminded, the atmosphere at the scene became completely quiet.
The students couldn't help but swallow.
He looked at Ethan with a mixture of tension, unease, and a hint of excitement.
"Although I made many changes to the castle's design last semester under the professor's supervision."
"But I can't help but ask myself:"
"Am I really going to use an incomplete, flawed painting to satisfy everyone?"
"Can a simple assessment really satisfy everyone?"
Everyone:
No.
A "simple" assessment is sufficient.
"Ethan is definitely a bit of a perfectionist."
Ron muttered to himself.
Hermione glared at him, then looked at Ethan with reverence.
I swore in my heart:
I memorized at least a dozen magic books for this test!
At least.
She's also better than Luna Lovegood, who's always hanging out with Ethan!
A small flame of fighting spirit ignited in Hermione's eyes.
On the stone steps.
Ethan stopped abruptly, turned around abruptly, looked at the crowd, and said in a resounding voice:
"No! Of course not! I cannot allow myself to degenerate like this!"
"So, after a week of hard work, I've made a small change to the old town of Sein."
Ethan smiled.
The sharp spikes cast shadows on it, making the smile seem to stretch to the ears.
"I changed the ancient city challenge to an endless chase and escape mode."
Everyone: ? ? ?
Infinity, pursuit, escape?!
Any one of these three words, taken individually, is very bad!
What the heck is this supposed to be a level-based adventure game with endless escapes?!
Has this kid gone mad?!
"The president of the Gobstone Club," Wallace thought in horror.
Where's the professor? Isn't anyone going to do anything about this?!
He looked at Professor Lockhart standing to the side.
The latter was as quiet as a chicken, seemingly wanting to blend into the shadows.
Wallace:
The professor was afraid of the students.
This is utterly upside down.
—No, the plan has changed.
I feel like I'll really die if I stay any longer.
Wallace gave up easily.
He retreated step by step, distancing himself from the crowd, and no one noticed him.
Wallace breathed a sigh of relief.
Turning around, I bumped into a fluffy "wall".
It's so hot!
Wallace leaped back abruptly, then looked up—
They met six enormous, orange-yellow eyes, each the size of a lantern.
Black fog surged, obscuring the sky and the sun.
And from within this, the figure of a three-headed giant dog slowly emerges.
Like dark clouds looming overhead.
The black mist passed over everyone's heads and continued until it reached Ethan's hand.
"Senior, the starting line is here, you're going the wrong way."
Ethan, seeing his senior suddenly fall to the ground, kindly offered a reminder.
"This is the monster chasing us from behind—my Cerberus."
In complete silence.
Ethan said shyly again:
"I've always believed that hidden potential can only be unleashed in dire circumstances—"
"Therefore, I will try my best to make everyone feel as if they are there!"
Ethan snapped his fingers and pointed to the door.
"Then, please have the first group come forward."
After a few seconds of silence.
Urged on by the three-headed dog.
The first group of students, looking utterly dejected, dragged their feet forward slowly.
Cedric and Hermione are also in this group.
Cedric was doing warm-up exercises, breathing heavily.
The steam rising from his body made other students keep their distance.
The crowd stood on both sides.
The three-headed dog stood at a distance, seemingly itching to attack.
Ethan: "Alright, the first group assessment—let's begin now!"
"roar!!!"
A furious roar was heard!
The three-headed dog transformed into a black whirlwind and pounced on the gate!
The members of the first group also rushed out like arrows released from a bow!
There was one exception!
It's Cedric of Hufflepuff.
Instead of running away, he turned around and faced Cerberus head-on!
Everyone was stunned.
What is he trying to do?!
Cedric stared at the rapidly enlarging, enormous figure and shouted:
"Is this the monster you used to eliminate the other contestants in last year's challenge, Ethan!"
"Come on! Let me personally slay this monster and avenge my humiliation!"
"Ethan, be our witness!!"
talking.
Cedric flicked his wand, and it instantly transformed into a two-handed greatsword gleaming with a cold light!
"Oh ho."
Ethan's eyes widened slightly.
This melee mage's approach reminded him of an old friend.
"Drink it!!!"
Cedric shouted and charged straight at the three-headed dog!
Everyone gasped, holding their breath as they watched his movements!
At this moment, Cedric's figure moved like a hero slaying a dragon, second by second.
Cedric slid in, landing right in the mouth of the middle head of the three-headed dog.
Cerberus: "Separate."
Everyone: ".—"
That's terrible!
It's gone in the blink of an eye!
Justin, also from Hufflepuff, collapsed to the ground, crying out in anguish, "Senior, you died such a terrible death!!"
Everyone: He's not dead yet!
Finally, it was under Ethan's orders.
The three-headed dog reluctantly spat out Cedric.
Cedric lay on the ground, surrounded by his juniors, and with difficulty, he stretched out a finger and wrote something crookedly on the ground.
"I am not willing to accept this."
Then, he tilted his head to the side.
He completely lost consciousness.
Justin: "No—!"
Ethan: (One_One)
You wouldn't guess this young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes is quite the actor.
However... a melee mage, huh?
With proper training, they could unexpectedly achieve great things.
Ethan thought to himself.
Thanks to Cedric's heroic sacrifice of feeding the tiger.
The first group was successfully delayed for nearly two minutes.
"Feeling...it's not that hard!"
Ron, panting heavily, turned his head and grinned.
Harry glared: "Watch out—"
Before he could finish speaking...
A giant pendulum swings from the side.
With a bang, Ron was sent flying.
They fell into the abyss beside the stone-paved passage.
Harry: Aibo-one!
Without a moment to mourn Ron, Harry was immediately distracted by the series of giant swings that came his way.
It seems that Ethan believes that anyone who can last for two minutes is a strong person.
Therefore, traps are no longer limited to sudden turns or obstacles.
They've started incorporating existing traps from the ancient city of Sein!
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, archers appeared from both sides and began firing arrows!
Although the arrowhead had a blunt tip like a suction cup, it was imbued with a petrification spell.
If you get hit, you'll fall straight down with a thud.
"Woolen cloth!"
Harry dodged an arrow with a swift movement.
The student on the other side was hit by a shot and fell to the ground.
—Thank goodness I mastered the art of dodging on my cousin Dudley.
However, the ensuing rain of arrows left Harry with nowhere to hide!
"Everyone, fly away!"
Harry blurted out, slamming his wand down.
This was a newly learned spell, and Harry regretted it as soon as he uttered it.
Because he had never successfully cast this spell.
Either it had no effect, or the effect was too small. Seeing that the arrows were about to pierce his body, Harry couldn't help but close his eyes.
but.
Suddenly, a hurricane swept in, like a giant slap in the face, blowing all the arrows away!
It worked!!
Harry stared in surprise at the wand in his hand, a smile creeping onto his face.
"Ethan's training methods seem to be really effective."
Also.
After all, no professor would actually do that to them.
Only Ethan showed no mercy.
But before Harry Sun could even finish his sentence, it was only a few seconds.
Behind them came the barking of the Asian-headed dog.
"Torn apart!"
Hermione unleashed a spell from her body.
He shot a statue with pinpoint accuracy using only his peripheral vision.
It exploded with a roar, collapsing onto the passage and blocking the pursuit of the Asian-headed dog.
Before today.
Hermione never knew she could shoot so accurately.
"Only ten seconds left! Hang in there!"
Hermione called out to Harry, panting.
Only the two of them were left.
Thanks to the Body-Shattering Potion that Ethan kept placing along the way.
Otherwise, she really couldn't handle it.
The more Hermione ran, the more she felt that Ethan's design was simply ingenious.
Even if it's not in the magical world, but in a video game ported to the Muggle world.
It will definitely become a hit.
He shines wherever he goes, no wonder he's Ethan!
Hermione's admiration for Ethan grew stronger, and she wanted to learn and grow with him.
Even if I can never stand on the same level as Ethan.
She'll use every ounce of her strength to chase after him!
Ten seconds, nine seconds...
"So what if I'm a Muggle? I'm still better than any other adult!"
8.7.6 "I must pass the test and join Ethan's club—"
Fifth, Hermione stared intently ahead, not looking back, and threw a series of obstacles behind her, calling out in a hoarse voice:
"I must join Ethan in Hogwarts' grand, albeit ugly, talent development plan!!!"
Just then.
"Houichi!!"
A violent, giant wave crashed down from behind.
In an instant, He knocked Hermione to the ground!
