Chapter 128: Magical text (1/2)
Professor Brod is a funny old man. Albert is looking forward to this invitation. When he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office opened automatically.
Albert's hand froze in place. Knowing that it was Professor Browd's invitation, he stretched out his hand and gently opened the door and lifted his foot into the Office of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
Professor Browd has prepared cakes and drinks.
Of course, there is also a set of wizard chess.
”Wait a moment.” Professor Broad sat at his desk, staring at some parchment in front of him, not knowing what he was doing.
Albert didn't bother him, sat quietly on the sofa, bought himself a cake, and ate himself.
Ten minutes later, Professor Browd finally finished his business, sat in front of Albert, smiled and said to him, ”I heard Professor McGonagall say about you. She is proud of you.”
”What about ”Transfiguration Today”?” Albert asked a little puzzled.
”Yes.” Professor Brod nodded, ”At your age, it's very remarkable.”
Albert was silent, suddenly wondering what to say. In fact, he really didn't care much about this issue.
Professor Browd noticed the astonishment and silence flashing across Albert's face, and asked suspiciously: ”You seem to... don't care too much?”
”Huh?” Albert nodded in embarrassment. In fact, he wants to say that his reputation is not as affordable as Kanon.
Hogwarts students don’t have to pay for publishing papers in ”Transfiguration Today.” Of course, the relationship between the two parties has always been mutually beneficial.
Only the students who have won the Best and Most Potential Newcomer Award will be given a symbolic Kanon award in ”Transfiguration Today”. The number of Kanon is not large. More honors come from the title of Best and Most Potential Newcomer Award. .
”White moves first.” Professor Broad was not discussing the topic, but made a request to Albert.
Albert immediately concentrated his attention and began to carefully test the strength of Professor Brod. He is very clear about his situation, the level of Wizard Chess is only one level, and it is still far away from the second level.
This level is fine for ordinary people, but it is much worse for international wizard chess champions.
In fact, facing the offensive, Professor Brod deliberately released the water. Albert still failed to block the opponent's offensive, and he was checked to death by Professor Brod's knights in less than ten minutes.
Although he lost in chess, Albert has benefited a lot from his chess game with Professor Broad. After the start of the second game, Albert slowed down his speed to avoid some small mistakes in the first game. The two sides fought for 20 minutes, and finally the opponent queen was checkmate dead.
”Lost again.” Albert said with emotion, ”Is this the level of an international wizard chess champion? The level of wizard chess games must be very high.”
”No, in fact, you are wrong. The level of wizards participating in international wizard chess competitions is very average.” Professor Brod took a sip of milk tea and gently explained: ”In fact, there are very few people who really train in this area. Wizards, they may have some level, but they are still that way. In two years, you should be able to reach that level.”
”You mean... the players participating in the international wizard chess tournament are all amateurs?” Albert was a little surprised at once.
In fact, it is said that when a person is seventeen, he will begin to reach the peak in many ways, and Albert once suspected that it was for this reason that he became an adult at seventeen.
”Yes, in fact, there has never been a so-called professional or amateur. However, every game is like this. When you become an adult, you can also participate in the international wizard chess competition.” Professor Broad said with a smile: ”Although there is no bonus How much, but the title is pretty good.”
”Yeah.” Albert replied absently. In fact, he didn't care if he was famous.
”Famous, sometimes it works.” Professor Broad smiled meaningfully.
