"Boom."

Hearing this voice, Pomona and Trelawney looked at each other.

"I thought I heard thunder," Pomona said.

"I heard it too." Trelawney said seriously, "This is not your imagination."

Pomona didn't know what to say for a moment, so she followed the sound and walked forward.

Soon they arrived at the auditorium. The door of the auditorium was not closed, and the thunder came from the auditorium.

But what's worse is that there is water everywhere on the ground, which seems to be caused by the weather magic "raining" above the auditorium.

"I remember the weather forecast said it would be sunny today," Pomona said.

"That's a lie," Trelawney said immediately.

Pomona actually wanted to discuss something else with her. Although the weather forecast may not always be accurate, why did it suddenly start to rain like a thunderstorm?

"Oh, you are here too."

They turned back and looked at Professor Russ, who was rushing over. Behind him was Snape, who still frowned and seemed to be angry.

"What's going on? It looks like it's been attacked by Myrtle," Pomona joked.

"There is defensive magic in the auditorium. I don't think a ghost has this ability." Professor Russ said seriously, and then looked at the rain in the auditorium. "I think what we should worry about is whether the defensive magic is damaged now.

"

Pomona looked at the candles floating in the air. Many of them had been extinguished by the rain.

That's quite normal, isn't it? The fire was put out by water.

But if Rowena Ravenclaw had decorated the Great Hall and hadn't expected that it would rain in the Great Hall like it did outside on rainy days, then the Great Hall would not have become the most frequently used place in the castle.

"You are still in the mood to laugh." Snape looked at her with a smile and said.

Pomona remembered the proposition that she once told him, "People can laugh." As soon as she finished speaking, a golden retriever walked past them with a "smile" on its owner's lead.

"Why don't you laugh? How can you summon a patron saint if you are not happy?" Pomona said easily, waving his wand, and summoned his swan patron saint. It flew into the auditorium and circled around the candles.

Circle, and soon "the rain stopped".

"Let's blow away this nasty fog." Ruth said, and a gust of wind blew from the end of the wand, blowing away the fog that filled the corridor.

Without the fog that blocked people's sight, the things hidden inside quickly became invisible. A big-headed hairy monster ran in a panic, seeming to want to hide in the blown away fog.

"Imprison them all!" Trelawney shouted immediately, but the spell did not hit the big-headed monster.

Snape also raised his wand. The big-headed monster seemed to trip over something and fell to the ground in the water. It looked like a pebble in a creek.

Everyone gathered around.

"That's what did it?" Pomona asked.

"You'll know after torture." Snape said expressionlessly, raising his wand.

"No, you can't use dark magic," Ruth said.

Snape showed a disgusted expression, "This is a dark creature."

"What do you want to get out of him? Professor Snape, the big-headed monster can't speak human language." Russ said.

"Look at his back," Trelawney said, "it seems like there's something on his back."

Snape and Russ stopped arguing and began to examine the shaggy monster.

"rictusempra." Pomona pointed at the big-headed monster with her wand and said, and then the big-headed monster laughed and trembled all over.

Both Ruth and Snape looked at her.

"What? I just want to add some humor," Pomona said.

"Oh, look!" Trelawney pointed at the big-headed monster with excitement and said, "It's out, it's out!"

Everyone looked at the big-headed hairy monster. It had a bald head, but its body was covered with hair. You couldn't tell it at first, but as it rolled on the ground laughing, the things hidden on its body "ran out".

"Hurry and grab it!" Pomona shouted, then stepped on it, trying to hit the long, black object.

But I don’t know whether it was because it was too slippery or because there was water on the ground. It ran away, and then swam away quickly like a sensitive fish.

For a moment, everyone came up with their own unique moves, some with wands, and some with their feet like Pomona, which caused water to splash everywhere.

"Are you playing in the water? I want to play with you too," said Peeves passing by.

"No, Peeves!" But Pomona's warning was too late, Peeves had already plunged into the water with a sudden force, causing splashes.

Everyone had to take a step back. At the same time, the black thing returned to the big-headed hairy monster, and it ran away at an extremely fast speed.

When they disappeared, the cold feeling also disappeared, and not only the auditorium, but also other places returned to normal.

"I think we found the culprit." Ruth said happily.

"Yeah, except for letting it run away." Snape said coldly, pulling on his water-soaked robe, and chased the big-headed hairy monster in the direction where it disappeared.

"Ignore him," Pomona said to Ruth, and then glanced at Sybill Trelawney.

She was so proud that she raised her chin and left without looking back.

"What did you do to offend her?" Ruth asked.

"I mentioned the weather report," Pomona said.

"What does that have to do with anything?" Ruth asked confused.

"There's always something unpredictable about a 'prophet,'" Pomona said.

Ruth still didn't understand, but Pomona was too lazy to explain. She hummed and walked towards the office.

In addition to catching dragonflies, it seems that the children now have a new goal to catch. She just hopes that the big-headed monster is as strong as a real stone and will not be killed by those "little devils".

==================================================

========

There was no rain in the movie's trailer, and Pomona didn't know how Severus could see the rain on the poster, but she just didn't like the one standing in the back of the "bald" duo.

.

Pomona put the poster on the wall and admired it.

There was a time when mankind regarded poverty and asceticism as virtues, so there were pilgrims and the Crusades to protect pilgrims. Their goal was not only Jerusalem, but also other places where miracles had occurred.

When the Black Death broke out again in Europe, the church regarded it as a miracle and a disaster sent by God. Copernicus then wrote Theory of the Movement of Celestial Bodies with the intention of changing something.

After Columbus, every explorer regarded treasure hunting as the primary goal. For a long time, the Spanish and Portuguese used mining as their purpose and loaded large amounts of gold and silver on treasure ships. Soon the New World replaced Central Europe.

It became Europe's main source of precious metals.

But at that time, the Europeans had already lost Constantinople. Sultan Suleiman I of the Ottoman Empire even besieged Vienna in 1529. The Sultan brought 100,000 soldiers on that expedition, while Austria only had about 17,000 soldiers.

.

This was indeed a war with disparity in power, and many people knew about it in history, but this was not the first time Suliman personally fought.

In 1522, the same year that Magellan completed the first human journey around the world, Suleiman led an army of 200,000 to attack Rhodes Island. At that time, there were only 7,000 hospital knights and one engineer on the island. Rhodes Island was isolated on the sea, which could allow knights to

The regiment was protected from direct interference by the secular monarchs of the great European powers.

In short, this allowed them to become a religious monastery independent of other countries. At the same time, they also faced the dilemma of having no reinforcements. Facing the well-prepared Suleiman army, they held on to the island for a year. These knights later merged into

To the island of Malta, the Knights of Malta were established under the auspices of Charles V.

It may also be because of this war that Suleiman re-evaluated the combat effectiveness of Christendom. In 1529, he only led 100,000 people, but what is really worth mentioning is not the Ottoman army.

Artillery had replaced siege engines at this time and became a weapon for siege, and these artillery were produced in Istanbul.

The people who made these cannons were expelled by Spanish Queen Isabella and Ferdinand II in 1492. Originally, the Portuguese had a relatively mild attitude towards them because the king wanted to marry Princess Isabel of Spain and agreed to the Spanish cannons.

conditions of.

In 1512, King Francois I of France and Charles V of Austria fought in Pavia. At that time, it was said that Genoese bankers had provided financial support to Charles V. Then in this battle, King Francois I of France

After being captured, Charles V issued a harsh treaty before allowing Francois I to leave. After his release, Francois I formed an alliance with Suleiman.

In the process of manufacturing artillery, the Ottomans needed to use high-quality tin, which happened to be produced in Britain. One thing that smuggling and exploration have in common is the desire to discover and try new things. With the full development of the geographical discovery, smuggling

It also started to increase.

The English did not have Spanish precious metals, but they would exchange tin for cotton and cotton cloth with the Indians, and then exchange their favorite cotton cloth with the residents of the Spice Islands, so that they could obtain the same spices that the Spanish and Portuguese bought with silver.

Feeling someone touch her shoulder, Pomona turned her head, and then a kiss fell on her lips.

This kiss smells of black tea and cardamom, which makes people feel refreshed.

"It's very late, go to sleep." Severus said softly.

Who drinks refreshing tea before bed?

But she looked into his eyes and was led away by him as if she was bewitched.

Before leaving, she looked back at the male protagonist on the poster. His sunglasses looked weird in the dark, like two black holes, making his face no longer so handsome.
