Chapter 174 The Gaze from Behind
“Oh, I lost again, can I still play cards happily?”
In the Gryffindor common room, George, who had lost another round of Wizarding Cards, slumped down on his chair and casually threw the remaining cards back on the table. He couldn't help complaining: "Why did you lose?" Is it always me?"
"Nonsense, it would be weird if you could beat me now." Albert packed up his cards, reached out and patted George's shoulder to comfort him: "After all, I invented this game. With you guys At your current level, it is impossible to beat me for the time being. You should play cards with Fred or Lee Jordan, the level of the three of you should be almost the same."
“No, no, George and Fred can’t beat me.” Lee Jordan chuckled.
“Did you get some weird cards again and mix them into your deck?” Albert looked at Lee Jordan suspiciously, with an expression that said he was cheating again.
“Do you think I look like that?” Lee Jordan protested dissatisfied.
“It seems you haven’t done that before. What happened to the Avada Kedavra card last time?” Fred stared at Lee Jordan with contempt.
"Ahem, that card, I just used it to test whether to add the Unforgivable Curse." Lee Jordan coughed lightly and explained, "However, it seems not very suitable. I just added that card The card has been removed from the deck."
"No need, I will modify the card content of Avada Kedavra later." Albert thought for a while and said, "If using the Avada Kedavra card does not defeat the opponent, use this card Whoever plays the card will lose the game directly."
“Why?” the three of them asked in unison.
"Because wizards who use Avada Kedavra will be caught by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic and imprisoned in Azkaban Prison!" Albert said matter-of-factly: "This is a card prepared for the dark wizard camp. Only dark wizards can be chosen. Players of this camp will not lose the game directly if they still fail to win the game after using the Avada Kedavra card, but every round, his opponent will have an Auror card added to the game. On the field, lasts three rounds.”
“A dark wizard is hunted down by an Auror after using the Unforgivable Curse? This is quite interesting.” Li Jordan thought this idea was a good one and immediately took out his notes to write down the ideas mentioned by Albert.
“Will there still be a Ministry of Magic camp in the future?” Fred said with certainty, “Hogwarts, the Ministry of Magic, and dark wizards?”
“If possible, there will also be magic world, goblin and magical creature cards.” Albert explained, “Of course, the gameplay is also different, such as how your Quidditch deck is played, and my spell deck. "
“Why do I always lose when I play professor?” George couldn’t help but protested, “Your settings are unreasonable.”
“George, you have too many high star cards.” Fred said, covering his face. "High-star cards can only be used in the later stage. If you can't use them in the early stage, you will lose."
"Yes, Fred is right." Lee Jordan nodded in agreement, "You actually put three ten-star Dumbledores into the deck. They won't be used until at least the tenth round. If you ask me, put one There are already enough, but you actually put three more, what are you trying to do?"
“By the tenth time, you won’t be able to defeat me.” George said.
“Actually, it’s hard for you to hold on until then.” Fred always wanted to complain about George’s idea of holding back his ultimate move.
“How about we increase the player’s health to thirty?” George suggested.
"Fifteen to twenty is enough." Lee Jordan shook his head and rejected, "You should know how to cooperate. For someone like Albert who specializes in using spells, you should get a card to restrain him."
"Isn't there?" Albert reminded, "Quidditch ban."
Players are prohibited from using spells during a Quidditch match. In the next three rounds, no spells can be used in the entire field, and the attack of Quidditch players present is +1.
Fred's cards are all Quidditch decks, so he prepared three of this card, but when he played cards with Albert, he still couldn't win.
“What are you doing?” Angelina walked towards this side and asked curiously as she looked at the four people gathered together who didn’t know what they were doing.
“Playing cards, a card game invented by Albert.” Fred explained casually.
“Card game, what is that?” Angelina looked at the cards on the table with confusion on her face. She had never heard of such a game in the magic world.
George handed a card to Angelina, who was stunned after reading it because she discovered that the card actually had George's name written on it.
“The number next to the sword symbol is the attack power, the number next to the heart symbol is the blood volume, and the line below is the effect of that card.” Albert explained.
“Would you like to play a game too?” Fred said with a smile, “My cards are the same as George’s. This is Lee Jordan’s card, and this is Albert’s.”
“It’s interesting.” Angelina put down Lee Jordan’s card and asked curiously, “Why do you use real names?”
“This is Albert’s inspiration from the Chocolate Frog card,” Fred explained. “If you want your own card, you can ask Albert to get one for you.”
“Is it okay?” Angelina looked at Albert.
"Of course it's no problem." Albert pulled out a blank card from his notebook, then took out a pen and started filling in the card. His health and attack were the same as Li Jordan's. However, the effect of Angelina's card is to take the lead: she is the first to score ten points in the Quidditch match, which greatly boosts her morale. All her teammates have +1 attack in this round.
“I love this!” Angelina said with a smile. If you can score first in a Quidditch match, it will undoubtedly boost your morale.
“Would you like a round?” Fred handed his card to Angelina.
"Violent Batter: Swing the bat to hit an enemy hard, causing 2 points of damage. When Erin and Mark appear on the field at the same time, each round will cause 2 points of damage to an enemy." Angelina read softly. After Eileen's card effect, she couldn't help laughing out loud. She felt that this game might be more interesting than she imagined. She asked: "How to play this game?"
A few minutes later, Angelina simply lost to Albert.
“We actually lost.” Angelina found this unfamiliar game very interesting. She could see that Albert’s deck was completely different from Fred’s deck.
“I told you earlier, don’t play with Albert.” Lee Jordan reminded, “It’s normal for you to lose to him. It’s estimated that no one can beat him now.”
“Why?” Angelina asked in confusion.
"Because he invented this game." Fred said helplessly, "Until we figure out the combination of cards and how to play the game, no one can beat him."
“That’s right, you actually have the nerve to play cards with us here?” Angelina complained, glaring at Albert.
"It seems you took the initiative to ask me to play cards." Albert shrugged helplessly, "I originally asked you to play cards with George."
“Oh, is that so, George, let’s play a game.” Angelina invited George.
…
A few minutes later, George sat down on the chair with a decadent look on his face, looking like he didn't want to play cards anymore.
“I told you earlier, if you don’t replace some of your high-star cards, you will definitely lose.” Lee Jordan said to George speechlessly.
"However, I kind of understand Albert's good intentions." Fred suddenly said.
"What's the meaning?"
“Let Angelina find her confidence.”
“How pitiful.” The two of them looked at George with the same expression.
“Hey, what’s that expression on your face?” George couldn’t help but protested.
"What are you doing?" At this time, Charlie came over with a notice, preparing to post the Quidditch selection notice on the Gryffindor bulletin board.
“Play a card game.” Angelina smiled and handed over Charlie’s cards.
"Card game, what is that?" Charlie took the thing handed over by Angelina doubtfully, glanced at the content on it, and read out softly: "Captain Devil: After a long period of **** training, all the players on the field have Teammate attack +1?"
Wood next to him couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"It seems that my training is still too easy." Charlie glared at Albert and the four of them maliciously.
“Ahem, these cards were all caused by Albert.” Fred shirked responsibility without moral integrity.
“That’s right, they were all made by Albert.” George answered immediately.
"Captain Devil is what Fred and George insisted on using. They thought it was more appropriate." Albert stabbed the two of them mercilessly.
“Do you have my card?” Wood asked curiously.
"Here is this one." Fred quickly changed the subject and said, "Goalkeeper, help a designated teammate block two points of damage."
Wood was quite satisfied with his cards, but he found that most of the players' names could be found in Fred's card deck, but...
“Why only Gryffindor?” Wood looked at Albert in confusion and asked.
"There are no cards from other academies for the time being." Albert nodded: "I will consider making them in the future. However, time is limited, so I only make these cards at the moment."
“Do the professors in the school also have cards?” Angelina asked curiously, “How many deans’ cards are there?”
Um,
"Most of them," Fred handed Snape's card to Angelina, who couldn't help laughing after reading it.
The effect of Head of Slytherin is, "The gaze from behind: you are being targeted, your back will feel cold, it is best not to do anything, and the designated target's attack power will be reduced to zero."
“Ahem, do you mean that?” Lee Jordan coughed, trying to pretend to be Snape’s usual voice, causing several people present to burst into laughter.
It seems that everyone is often stared at from behind by the Potions Professor.
