Since it started raining in the morning, students had to stay indoors during recess. Andrew, Hermione, Harry, and Ginny had found a seat in a noisy classroom on the second floor, and Peeves floated dreamily up by the chandelier, occasionally blowing a drop of ink on someone's head.

The study hall was a mess, everyone was doing their own thing, of course, many wizards who like to study, were trying to complete their homework in the herbal medicine class, and I don't know why, the professor of herbology suddenly assigned a lot of homework today, making Hermione suspect that it was because of Professor Umbridge.

Not only did the professors hate the old witch, but now the students are also spreading a strange condition called Umbridge syndrome. Cedric sat alone in a corner, wearing a thick wizard's robe, the aftermath of the tournament has not disappeared until now, according to old Barty, the contract of the tournament still exists, unless the eternal flame of the Goblet of Fire is extinguished one day, otherwise, Cedric and several warriors will never be able to get rid of this strange sequelae.

In such weather, it makes people lazy, Andrew is holding a roll of parchment, using his wand to keep clicking on it, and as Andrew clicks, different patterns begin to appear on the parchment.

This is another ancient magic that Andrew learned from Queen Anne: the Magic Crest Enchantment. A powerful spell that turns ordinary items into magic items.

Strictly speaking, whether it is a wand or a treasure used by Xie An, they are actually the products of enchantment, but the former comes from the natural enchantment of natural creatures, such as the nerves of dragons, snakes, unicorn horns, etc., these magical items have been enchanted by nature, and the treasures are generally magical treasures inherited from ancient times, such as the Goblet of Fire, the Three Sacred Weapons, the Horcruxes, etc., which are all treasures made by wizards with powerful magic skills.

It's a pity that these powerful magic pattern props can hardly be made anymore in modern times. A powerful enchanted Phantasm, priceless, in the battle of the Tower of London, Andrew once used Transfiguration and Magic Pattern Formation to make a Treasure, which can only be regarded as the simplest magic Phantasm, not a Treasure at all: this prop is far less than Horcruxes, Goblets of Fire, and Philosopher's Stone have strange abilities.

The way to make such a treasure is to master the method of enchantment. Enchantment is all about finding ways to activate the magic circuits in the materials themselves, so that they can become containers for powerful magic.

Before the tribulation, the demon gods used to make the entire starry sky into a treasure to display endless wealth. And with the end of the Demon God Era, it became more and more difficult for the Demon God's descendants to master the Demon Pattern Treasure, and later this ability was completely lost.

It wasn't until the Age of Ancient Magic that the World Tree reconnected the worlds, and the new life regained its old technology and regained the ability to craft treasures. It's a pity that at this time, it has reached the era of the end of the law, and in the entire universe, the materials that meet the technical conditions of the past have almost disappeared.

The earliest known history of magical figments known to the Ministry of Magic was during the Animagus dynasty on the Nile, and the most famous magical figments of the dynasty were the legendary Sun Scepter, the Book of the Dead, and the Philosopher's Stone that has been passed down to the present day.

In the torrent of history, the whereabouts of the Sun Scepter are unknown, and the Book of the Dead was later confirmed to be the long-standing Book of Rowling, now in the possession of Nicol Lemay, the most famous Philosopher's Stone, which is now in Andrew's possession, but has been used by Queen Anne to suppress Andrew's inner picture of hell.

It was in order to study the Philosopher's Stone that Queen Anne re-studied the legends of enchantment, a skill that was a legendary skill even in Queen Anne's time. So she didn't have much to do to help Andrew.

Andrew tapped the parchment with his wand again, and suddenly a puff of green smoke rose, and the enchantment failed.

"Last night was fine, why is this the case today?" Ginny looked out the window, the window glass was blurred by the heavy rain.

"When is the party ready to start?" Andrew asked, "I've found a place." ”

Hermione seemed a little taken aback, "When did you find it——— oh, okay, I'm going to inform the others, so when are we going to start?"

Andrew looked at the weather outside, "Anyway, this rain won't stop for a week, so it's better to be tomorrow night." At eight o'clock in the evening, on the eighth floor, the troll stick hit the opposite side of the tapestry of Barnabas. ”

"Oh, well, I'm going to inform someone. Hermione finished and left.

After Hermione left, Harry looked at Hermione's back and said, "You two are really a couple. ”

Andrew looked at Harry for a moment before he said with a wicked smile, "Harry, you and Ginny are in love, you have to take care of it." ”

Harry, "......"

At half past seven the next night, Andrew led them out of the Gryffindor common room, Andrew with Harry's map of the living spot in his hand.

"Don't be nervous, guys. Andrew smiled and said, "Relax, I'll be fine with me." ”

"Where's Filch?" Hermione asked, still uneasy.

"Third floor. ”

"What about Lady Loris?"

"Fifth floor. ”

"Where's Umbridge?"

"In her office. Andrew said, "Okay, don't be nervous. ”

They quickly made their way down the hallway to the huge tapestry on the eighth floor of the painting Silly Barnabas trying to teach trolls ballet, opposite a stretch of white wall.

"This is it. Andrew looked at the map and said,

"What do we do now?" asked Harry.

"Focus on what we need," Andrew said, "and go around in circles here." ”

So they did as Andrew had said, walked to the window at one end of the white wall and turned back, and then turned back to the one-man vase at the other end.

When they turned around for the third time and opened their eyes, there was a very smooth door on the wall. Andrew took the bronze handle first, pulled the door open, and led the way into a spacious room with torches lit, like in an underground classroom.

On the wall was a wooden bookshelf, and there were no chairs on the floor, but there were large satin-like cushions. The shelves at the other end of the room were filled with speculums, secret detectors, and a large mirror with cracks.

"Hey, that's amazing——— look at this, these are all used when practicing the Stuna Charm. Ginny kicked the cushion with her foot and said excitedly.

"Carl, what a great place!" Hermione excitedly stroked the spine of the rows of sheepskin-faced books, "Common Spells and Their Solutions", "Dark Magic in Detail", "Self-Defense Spells......" She looked back at Andrew, a sun-like, bright smile on her face, "I can't believe it, how did you find such a place?"

"I stumbled upon it," Andrew walked to the front of the bookshelf, pulled out a copy of "Fighting Poison with Poison", and handed it to Hermione, "It's a good place, isn't it?"

"Of course," Hermione said, flipping through the book.

At that moment, there was a soft knock on the door, and Seamo, Neville, Dean, and Parvati pushed the door in.

"Wow," Dean exclaimed, looking around, "what is this place?"

"Well, you can see for yourselves," Andrew said with a smile, "and I'll explain when everyone is there." ”

As soon as eight o'clock passed, everyone came, and everyone sat on the mats and looked around in amazement. With a wave of his wand, Andrew's door clicked and locked, and everyone fell silent and looked at him. Hermione carefully marked the pages of Fighting Poison with Poison and set the book aside.

"Well, I'll just talk about this place briefly. Andrew looked around, "This is the place we found to practice, and we're basically going to be here in the future." ”

"Wonderful!" said Luna, "this place couldn't be better."

"It's weird," Fred frowned and looked around, "we got away from Filch here, George, remember? But it was just a broom cabinet that time—"

"It's called the Room of Responsiveness," said Andrew, "and in short, it will come up according to the ideas that your heart needs most." ”

"I see. "We just needed a place to hide.

With that, he and Fred glanced at each other and smiled identically.

"Uh, Andrew, what is this?" Dean asked in the back row, pointing to the speculum and the demon mirror.

"Dark magic detectors," Andrew said, pointing to the mirror, "they are generally used to show if there are any dark wizards or enemy activity nearby, but don't rely too much on these instruments, a clever wizard can fool them"

Then Andrew continued, "I've been thinking about what you need to learn——— what do you need to learn, Hermione?"

"I think we should choose a leader. Hermione said.

"No need, Hermione. We're just learning, we're not organizing, and- what, Hermione?"

"Then I think we should have a name," she said clearly, with her hands still in the air, "and that promotes unity and strengthens the collective spirit, doesn't it?"

"Is it okay to call it the 'Anti-Umbridge Alliance'?" asked Angelina expectantly.

"Or the 'Ministry of Magic is stupid' group?" Fred suggested.

"I think," said Hermione, frowning at Fred, "that name better not make people see what we're up to, so we can safely mention it outside." ”

"Defense Society?" said Cho, "., no one knows what we're talking about." ”

"Hey, yes," said Ginny, "it could also say that the 'Dumbledore's Army' is what the Ministry of Magic fears the most, right?"

"What?" Hermione asked, as she knelt up and counted heads, "the majority—the motion passed." ”

"Alright, Hermione. Come, give me that note, our organization is not very bright, this kind of thing is better put away. ”

"Alright," Andrew continued, after Hermione sat down, "and besides, you don't have to raise your hand to speak, and we're not in Umbridge's class. ”

The remark elicited a low, good-natured laugh.

"Let me start with a brief description of my philosophy of defense. Andrew waved his wand, and the blackboard flew in the distance.

Three big words quickly appeared on it, "Attack!"

"Attack?" said Zacharith Smith, holding his arms and wide-eyed, "we're going to talk about how to defend again." ”

"Shut up. Smith. Ginny whispered.

"That's right," Andrew said calmly, looking at him, "it's offense, and only offense is the best defense." He waved his wand, and the wand in Smith's hand flew out and landed in Andrew's hand. Smith's mouth was blankly open, and the room fell silent.

"The best defense is only when the enemy is subdued!" Andrew said firmly.

Then Andrew gave him back his wand and said, "If anyone thinks I'm wrong, leave it." Andrew said. Smith didn't move. None of them moved.

"Okay," Andrew looked at Hermione, "Hermione, you come up first." ”

After Hermione walked up, Andrew said, "I think you have to use all kinds of means to defeat the enemy, and this is not a duel. And a lot of times, it's about your life. ”

No one spoke, all listening to Andrew, who continued, "Hermione, use a spell on me. ”

"What?" Hermione asked incredulously.

"You heard me right, cast a spell on me. Andrew said.

"Oh, well——— get rid of your weapons. ”

A red light flew out of Hermione's wand, but before that, a red light appeared in Andrew's wand and bounced Hermione's spell off, and Andrew's spell still hit Hermione.

The wand in Hermione's hand was knocked away, and the wand fell into Andrew's hand.

"See it all?" Andrew returned his wand to Hermione, "I didn't chant spells, this method is quicker and much better than a normal weapon to remove you." ”

"A lot of times, casting magic without reciting a spell can also have a surprising effect. ”

"Today I'm going to teach you how to cast your weapon without chanting a spell. ”

…………

"Alright," Andrew said to them after the elaboration, "I suggest that you work in groups of two and memorize the tricks I said." Okay, let's get started. ”

There was a thunderclap in the room, wands flew in all directions, and the misguided spells hit the books on the shelves, sending them flying into the air.

Andrew walked to the center of the room and tried to correct the person who had done wrong.

"Neville. Andrew saw Neville trying to cast the spell, "Good job, Neville, you've been in great form lately, remember: offense!" He roared imposingly, cheering Neville on.

Neville suddenly waved his wand, and Hermione's wand was knocked away.

"Hey," Neville said excitedly, "it's a lot easier! I can't do that with a normal mantra." ”

A lot of people stopped, and a lot of people applauded when they saw Neville's performance.

"As long as the heart is strong, nothing is difficult, Neville. ”

Many people nodded convincingly and continued to practice.

Finally, after everyone could knock the wand in each other's hands away without chanting a spell, Andrew looked at the watch on Hermione's wrist.

"Alright, that's all for today. Andrew smiled and said, "Everyone did a good job, but we're up to the time, so let's stop here today." Same time, same place next week. ”

"It's better sooner!" Dean said eagerly, most nodding in agreement.

He took out the map of the living point and carefully checked if there were any teachers on the eighth floor. He asked three or four people to go together.

"It's been amazing. Hermione said.

By this time they were gone, and they were on their way back.

"yes. Andrew smiled and said, "Next time, I'll give you something more useful." ”
