The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific.

Chapter 222 Is there ever a vice principal in the world who has served for forty years?

"Look, Lockhart is running away!"

When Andy finished breakfast and walked outside the auditorium, he suddenly heard someone shout loudly.

Andy and Hermione exchanged a glance and quickly followed the crowd outside the castle.

Lockhart was carrying an enormous suitcase, his clothes were disheveled, and his hair was a tangled mess, like a bird's nest.

He looked extremely disheveled!

As Andy mingled in the crowd, he suddenly understood the joy Helen had felt back then—Hogwarts really is a great place to watch the drama unfold.

This place gathers all the young wizards of the British wizarding world; no one knows what they will achieve in the future. But when they are still young, they always do some silly things.

For example, Snape!

And there's also Harry and Malfoy from Andy's year.

Harry is the savior of the British wizarding world, and Malfoy is the heir to a pure-blood family.

When they achieve great success and become big names in the magical world... Andy felt he could tell his children about the silly things they did in school.

For example, Malfoy was hit by an upside-down bell—that was truly a genius magic trick.

Thinking of his children… Andy suddenly turned and glanced at Hermione.

Hermione: "?"

"Don't let Lockhart get away!" someone shouted.

"Stop him!"

"I'll go inform Professor McGonagall."

Lockhart looked at the young wizards surrounding him and panicked. But he still straightened his collar to make himself look less disheveled.

"I know you'll miss me, but I have to go."

Lockhart exclaimed, "Something happened today; someone has smeared my reputation in the newspapers."

"I, Gilderoy Lockhart, recipient of the Order of Merlin, Third Class, and honorary member of the Anti-Dark Magic Association, will never fear these challenges!"

"You may soon see that woman named Rita Skeeter apologize to me in the newspapers. Ha! I'm not afraid of any of these schemes."

The young wizards fell silent for a moment upon hearing this.

Who the hell would hate to see you leave!

We asked you to stay so we could continue watching the excitement.

"Professor Lockhart?"

A voice suddenly came from outside the crowd, and the group of young wizards quickly parted. Professor McGonagall walked over, and she looked at Lockhart with a rather unpleasant expression.

"Professor Lockhart, since the founding of Hogwarts, there has never been a case of a professor leaving without notice."

Professor McGonagall said in a serious tone, "I expect you to strictly abide by the school's rules, and at the very least... you should explain the situation to Headmaster Dumbledore."

Lockhart looked a little embarrassed. "Well, I admit I was a bit too hasty. You know, that woman smears my reputation in the newspapers; that's what she's best at."

Thinking that it wouldn't take long to greet Dumbledore, Lockhart continued, "The headmaster's office is on the eighth floor, right? I think that old fox will understand."

Professor McGonagall remained expressionless.

In fact, Professor McGonagall thought Rita Skeeter was absolutely right, because she also felt that Dumbledore was getting senile.

Quirrell, and Lockhart...

What are all these things?

Even if you just randomly pulled someone from Diagon Alley, they could probably teach them better than the two of them combined.

Am I, Minerva McGonagall, ready to usurp the throne?

How can a vice principal serve for forty years?

"No need to go to the eighth floor."

Just then, Dumbledore suddenly came out of the castle. "I've arrived."

Behind Dumbledore followed two adult wizards.

Andy recognized one of them.

Dexter, one of the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic.

It's said that he had excellent grades in school, but his real-world fighting skills were terrible. In Kyle's words, he couldn't even beat Andy's grandmother.

"It's an Auror!" Andy whispered.

Hermione glanced at the two people following Dumbledore upon hearing this. "So, Lockhart really used the Forgetfulness Charm to steal other people's adventures?"

Andy raised an eyebrow and said, "I think so!"

The Ministry of Magic's swift action this time is likely because Fudge wants to reverse the negative public opinion against him.

The attack on Azkaban can no longer be covered up, but Lockhart's case is enough to stir up new public opinion.

"Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart."

Delilah stepped forward and said, "I am an Auror from the Ministry of Magic. Please come with us; we would like to ask you some questions."

"No! You can't do this!"

Lockhart had completely lost his composure. He said in a panic, "That's all made up by Rita Skeeter! You have no proof! And she couldn't possibly know anything about those things."

Delilah said with a serious expression, "Mr. Lockhart, this morning, the Aurors have already uncovered some evidence that is very unfavorable to you."

The crowd erupted in uproar.

Lockhart's expression also changed drastically. He muttered to himself, "No, that's fake! Impossible, impossible, you couldn't possibly find that out."

"I am a master of magic...that's right, I am a master of magic."

As he spoke, Lockhart suddenly pulled out his wand and pointed it at Dexter.

Dexter dared not be careless and quickly drew his wand.

He collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious!

Lockhart shouted, "Armor for Protection!"

then……

For some unknown reason, Dexter's Stunning Curse suddenly became much more powerful, sending Lockhart flying and crashing to the ground amidst the screams of the young wizards.

The crowd was silent for a moment, then erupted in uproar.

"Lockhart doesn't even know the Ironclad Charm; he really is a fraud!"

"You're actually surprised by something like this?"

"Didn't we already know Lockhart was a fraud?"

"Is that the power of an Auror? Did you see that Stunning Curse?"

"Not as good as Andy! Andy doesn't even need to chant a spell to use the Stunning Charm, and it's incredibly powerful."

The young wizards were buzzing with discussion.

Andy looked at the unconscious Lockhart with some surprise.

What exactly happened just now?

Andy was certain that Lockhart did indeed intend to use the Ironclad Charm to resist Dexter's Stunning Curse.

but……

Lockhart's Ironclad Curse actually enhanced Dexter's Stun Curse?

This is absolutely outrageous!

How did he do that?

What is the underlying principle?

If this ability can be mastered, two people working together can achieve a combat effectiveness greater than the sum of its parts.

Andy was confused.

Another Auror stepped forward to put magical handcuffs on Lockhart, while Dexter looked at Dumbledore and said, "Headmaster Dumbledore, we're taking Lockhart with us."

"Ah! Okay."

Dumbledore nodded. "Would you like to use the fireplace in the Headmaster's office?"

"Thank you for your help!" Deli said politely.
