Chapter 14 Alarming All Professors (Ch 14)

At the same time, the portraits of past principals on the wall also exclaimed in amazement.
“To be able to achieve this level with magic runes in such a short time is beyond imagination. Bruce Chen, you are destined to become famous in the magic world and become a wavebreaker of the new era!”
“It’s convenient, fast, stable, and allows face-to-face communication. This method of communication will definitely break the current owl-message communication method. I see great progress!”
“This is no longer something that a genius can do, Bruce Chen. You have ideas that are ahead of your time, and you also have extraordinary hands-on skills.”
Facing the praise from past principals, Chen Feng smiled and humbly replied: “Thanks to the guidance of Principal Dumbledore and the rich collection of books in the library, otherwise I would still be in the exploratory stage and it would be impossible for me to build a communicator and a signal repeater.”
“Professor Chen, being humble is a good thing, but being too humble is not a good thing.”
Dumbledore looked at the communicator screen in front of him, his snow-white beard trembling slightly, and spoke gently.
“This invention is very important to the development of the wizarding world. It is worth winning another Order of Merlin. It is even more precious than the Wolfsbane Potion. This is something worth showing off, and everyone’s praise is completely justified.”
At this point, Chen Feng could not refute and silently enjoyed the praise from everyone. Then he replied: “Principal, I will give these communicators to the professors first. It is a good opportunity to test their functions and stability.”
“Yes.” Dumbledore nodded and reminded, “Don’t forget the opening ceremony in the evening. It is a rare event.”
“I will be there on time, Principal.” Chen Feng replied and turned to walk out of the office.
Watching Chen Feng’s back disappearing around the corner of the castle, Dumbledore held the communicator in his hand, his eyes deep, and fell into deep thought, remaining silent for a long time.
On the other side, Chen Feng followed the magical sense and soon found Minerva McGonagall who was arranging the opening ceremony in the auditorium.
He didn’t rush forward, but looked around with interest.
I saw white candles suspended in the air and pumpkin lanterns carved with strange pictures embedded in the ceiling. Strands of light hung down, like a rain curtain covering the sky.
Looking at the center of the auditorium, there are four long party tables lined up in parallel.
Each desk is a different color and is engraved with the icons of the four colleges: the lion, the eagle, the badger, and the snake.
The surrounding walls are also surrounded by various magical dynamic images.
From time to time, ghosts would float by, and in a trance, I seemed to hear the laughter of the little wizards.
Stepping forward, walking up the stairs, and passing the party table, while Minerva McGonagall was setting up the place, Chen Feng asked in a friendly manner, “Professor McGonagall, do you need my help?”
“It’s Professor Chen. Okay, we just happen to be short of some candles. You can take care of it.” Minerva McGonagall nodded and replied, her tone much calmer than it was a month ago.
After spending some time together, especially with Dumbledore’s occasional praise, he gradually accepted Chen Feng’s arrival.
No longer care about his experience of graduating from Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and hanging out in Knockturn Alley.
After saying “OK”, Chen Feng waved his wand and skillfully used the Transfiguration and Levitation spells to condense candles and make them float in the empty spaces.
After a busy time, the auditorium was decorated. Minerva McGonagall looked at Chen Feng’s work and couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows slightly, feeling surprised at what a familiar Transfiguration spell it was.
As a master of the Transfiguration Spell, she could naturally distinguish between good and bad. It was no exaggeration to say that Chen Feng’s Transfiguration Spell level was not inferior to hers.
“No wonder Dumbledore keeps praising her.” Minerva McGonagall whispered to herself, then walked up to Chen Feng and asked, “Professor Chen, what do you want to talk to me about?”
Not surprised that Minerva Magg knew that he had come to find her, Chen Feng took out a communicator and said.
“This is a recently developed alchemical product: a communicator. It can be used at will within Hogwarts. There is a list of professors on the top. Click to connect.”
“Communicator?” Minerva McGonagall frowned slightly. Just hearing the name, it seemed a bit like owl messaging.
Chen Feng did not keep the secret and gave a detailed explanation. Now Minerva Magg completely understood.
His usually serious expression changed, revealing a hint of shock.
“Is this the result of your recent research with Dumbledore?”
Chen Feng nodded without refutation: “Professor McGonagall, you can try to talk to Headmaster Dumbledore now. I still have a communicator to hand over to other professors, so I won’t stay for long.”
Watching Chen Feng leave the Great Hall, Minerva McGonagall was shocked and couldn’t wait to click on Dumbledore’s name to verify it.
After a while, a light curtain appeared on the surface of the communicator.
The originally static portrait of Dumbledore disappeared, and the headmaster’s office appeared on the light curtain, with a familiar old man with white hair and beard inside.
“It’s Professor McGonagall. How about this alchemical product called the communicator? Isn’t it great?” Dumbledore said with a smile, his voice coming through clearly.
“Are you really Dumbledore?!” Even after seeing it with her own eyes, Minerva McGonagall still found it hard to believe.
“That’s absolutely true, Professor McGonagall.” Dumbledore blinked and replied mischievously. It was rare to see McGonagall’s expression change, and he couldn’t help showing some of his old mischievous nature.
“I’ll come to your office now.” Minerva McGonagall pursed her lips, regained her composure, and walked towards the headmaster’s office with graceful steps.
Outside, Chen Feng found Severus Snape who was brewing potion in the alchemy hut.
Same conversation, same result, same disbelief.
However, Snape had experienced a lot and did not show any shock. At most, his eyes changed slightly.
When Chen Feng left, he also came to the principal’s office with a communicator.
Without caring about the mood of the person who got the communicator, Chen Feng followed the magical perception and looked for professors of various subjects one by one.
Among them are Filius Flitwick, the professor of Charms, Pomona Sprout, the professor of Herbology, and Rolanda Hooch, the professor of Flying…
After their initial surprise, these professors called Dumbledore one after another.
After a series of phone calls, everyone finally gathered in the principal’s office, making the place unusually noisy.
“Dumbledore, why did you wait until now to tell us about such a big thing as the communicator?”
Professor McGonagall, the deputy headmaster and head of Gryffindor, was the first to step forward.
“Yes, Headmaster, this alchemical product is destined to bring about tremendous changes to the wizarding world. Notifying us in advance will allow us to be prepared. Otherwise, the surprise can easily turn into a shock.” Professor Hooch followed.
“It’s a very exquisite arrangement of magic runes, Dumbledore. Is this the latest pattern you discovered?”
Professor Bathsheda Baburin, who was in charge of ancient runes, was very interested in the runes that constructed the communicator and asked.
On the stage, Albus Dumbledore stood quietly, waiting for the professors to finish their questions before he answered.
“I think it would be more appropriate for Professor Chen to explain this matter.”
