"Oh, I lost again. Can I still play cards happily?"
In the Gryffindor common room, George, who had lost another round of wizard cards, slumped in his chair, casually throwing the remaining cards in his hand back on the table, and couldn't help complaining: "Why do I always lose?"
"Nonsense, it would be strange if you could beat me now." Albert put away his cards, reached out and patted George on the shoulder to comfort him, "After all, this game was invented by me. With your current level, you can't beat me for the time being. You should play cards with Fred or Lee Jordan. The levels of the three of you should be similar."
"No, no, George and Fred definitely can't beat me." Lee Jordan chuckled.
"You didn't mix some weird cards into your deck again, did you?" Albert looked at Li Jordan suspiciously, with an expression that said, "You didn't cheat again."
"Do you think I look like that kind of person?" Lee Jordan protested unhappily.
"As if you haven't done that. What about the Avada Kedavra card last time?" Fred glared at Lee Jordan with contempt.
"Ahem, that card, I just used it to test whether to add the Unforgivable Curse." Li Jordan coughed lightly and explained, "But it doesn't seem to be very suitable, I just removed the card from the deck."
"No, I'll modify the content of the Avada Kedavra card later." Albert thought for a while and said, "If the opponent is not defeated by using the Avada Kedavra card, the person using this card will lose the game directly."
"Why?" the three asked in unison.
"Because wizards who use the Avada Kedavra curse will be captured by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic and imprisoned in Azkaban Prison!" Albert said as a matter of course: "This is a card prepared for the dark wizard camp. Only players who choose the dark wizard camp will not lose the game directly if they still fail to win the game after using the Avada Kedavra curse card. However, in each round, his opponent will have an Auror card added to the field for three rounds."
"Dark wizards are hunted by Aurors after using the Unforgivable Curse? This is very interesting." Lee Jordan felt that this was a good idea and immediately took out his notebook to write down the idea mentioned by Albert.
"Will there still be a Ministry of Magic camp in the future?" Fred said affirmatively, "Hogwarts, Ministry of Magic, Dark Wizards?"
"If possible, there will also be cards from the wizarding world, goblins and magical creatures," Albert explained. "Of course, the ways of playing are also different, for example, your Quidditch deck plays, and mine plays with spells."
"Why does my professor always lose?" George couldn't help but protest, "Your setting is unreasonable."
"George, you have too many high-star cards." Fred covered his face and said, "High-star cards can only be used in the later stages. If you can't use them in the early stages, you will lose."
"Yes, Fred is right." Lee Jordan nodded in agreement. "You actually put three ten-star Dumbledores in the deck. They can't be used until at least the tenth round. I would say that putting one is enough. But you put three. What do you want to do?"
"By the tenth time, you won't be able to beat me," George said.
"In fact, it's hard for you to hold on until that time." Fred kept wanting to complain about George's idea of holding back his big move.
"How about we increase the player's health to thirty?" George suggested.
"Fifteen to twenty are enough." Li Jordan shook his head and rejected it. "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 a ban on Quidditch matches?" Albert reminded.
Players are prohibited from using spells during Quidditch matches. In the next three rounds, no spells can be used and the attack of all Quidditch players on the field is increased by 1.
Fred's cards are all Quidditch cards, so he prepared three of this card. However, he still couldn't win when playing cards with Albert.
"What are you doing?" Angelina walked over here, looked at the four people who were huddled together and didn't know what they were doing, and asked curiously.
"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 a puzzled look on her face. She had never heard of such a game in the wizarding world.
George handed a card to Angelina, who was stunned after reading it because she found that George's name was written on the card.
"The number next to the sword symbol is the attack power, the number next to the heart symbol is the health, and the line of text below is the effect of the card." Albert explained.
"Would you like to play a round too?" Fred said with a smile, "My cards are the same as George's. This is Lee Jordan's card, and Albert's is this one."
"Interesting." Angelina put down Li Jordan's card and asked curiously, "Why do you use real names?"
"This is the inspiration Albert got from the Chocolate Frog card," Fred explained. "If you want your own card, you can ask Albert to make you one."
"Is it okay?" Angelina looked at Albert.
"Of course no problem." Albert took out a blank card from his notebook, took out a pen and started filling in the card. His health and attack were the same as Lee Jordan's. However, Angelina's card effect was leading: she was the first to get ten points in the Quidditch game, which greatly boosted her morale. In this round, all teammates on her side had an attack +1.
"I like this!" Angelina said with a smile. In a Quidditch game, if you can score first, it will undoubtedly greatly boost morale.
"Want to play a round?" Fred handed his cards to Angelina.
Angelina took the deck and drew another card, which turned out to be an acquaintance.
"Violent Hitter: Swing the bat and hit an enemy hard, causing 2 damage. When Irene and Mark appear on the field at the same time, they will cause 2 damage to an enemy each round." Angelina read out Irene's card effect softly and couldn't help laughing. She thought this game might be more interesting than she thought. She asked, "How do you play this game?"
A few minutes later, Angelina lost to Albert very easily.
"I actually lost." Angelina found this unfamiliar game very interesting. She could see that Albert's deck was completely different from Fred's.
"I told you a long time ago, don't play with Albert." Li Jordan reminded, "It's normal for you to lose to him. I don't think anyone can beat him now."
"Why?" Angelina asked puzzled.
"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. How dare you play cards with us here?" Angelina glared at Albert and complained.
"It seems like you took the initiative to ask me to play cards." Albert shrugged helplessly and said, "I 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 slumped down in the chair with a look on his face that said, "I don't want to play cards anymore."
"I told you a long time ago that if you don't replace some of those high-star cards, you will definitely lose." Li Jordan said to George speechlessly.
"However, I kind of understand Albert's good intentions." Fred said suddenly.
"What's the meaning?"
"Let Angelina find her confidence."
"How pitiful." The two of them looked at George at the same time, revealing an expression of realization.
"Hey, hey, what are you looking at?" George couldn't help but protest.
"What are you doing?" At this time, Charlie came over with a notice, ready 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 Angelina handed over with confusion, glanced at the content, and read it out softly: "Devil Captain: After a long period of hellish training, all teammates on the field have an attack +1?"
Wood, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard this.
"It seems that my training is still too easy." Charlie glared at Albert and the other three with ill intention.
"Ahem, these cards were made by Albert." Fred shamelessly shirked the responsibility.
"Yes, they were all made by Albert." George immediately followed up.
"Fred and George insisted on using the Devil Captain. They thought it was more appropriate." Albert stabbed the two men mercilessly.
"Is my card there?" Wood asked curiously.
"Here's 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 set, except...
"Why only Gryffindor?" Wood looked at Albert puzzledly and asked.
"There are no cards for other colleges at the moment." Albert nodded and said, "I will consider making them in the future. However, time is limited, so I will only make these cards for now."
"Do the professors in the school have them too?" Angelina asked curiously, "Cards of the deans?"
Um,
"Most of them," Fred handed Snape's card to Angelina, who couldn't help laughing after reading it.
The effect of the Slytherin Headmaster is, "Gaze from behind: You are being stared at, your back is chilled, it is best to do nothing, the designated target's attack power is reduced to zero."
"Ahem, is that what you mean?" Lee Jordan coughed, trying to impersonate Snape's usual voice, causing several people present to burst out laughing.
It seems that everyone is often stared at from behind by the Potions Professor.
