Chapter 153: Castro Bruth's Weekend
When Professor Jason allowed everyone to start working, Ryan immediately pulled out his wand and began experimenting with the spell according to the method taught by the professor.
"Call the gods to guard. After chanting the spell, Ryan found that there was no response. This is a normal reaction, after all, the Patronus spell is also a high-level spell. Even if you can use the spell in its entirety, you can get extra points on the 5th grade regular wizard level exam.
Naturally, the probability of such a spell succeeding once must be very small, but the two next to him are not much better. Professor Jason took the trouble to prompt: "You need happy memories in your heart, and the determination to protect the good things. In short, you need enough positive emotions to be able to cast the spell. ”
Ryan began to recall how happy he was when he got the golden finger and learned that he could go home. And the joy of saving a lot of people before, and then raising the wand,
"Call the gods to guard. Ryan saw a puff of silver smoke emanating from the head of his wand. Finally, towards the end of today's lesson, Ryan found that his spell was capable of producing a large amount of silver smoke. The other two students are also on a similar track.
"Very well," Professor Jason said with a smile, "I'll bring a Dementor here next Friday afternoon, as long as you can block the Dementor attack with the Patronus Charm." As for the physical patron saint, which requires a long time to learn, I won't ask for it here. ”
The second time he was confronted with a real Dementor, Ryan was shocked, this kind of operation was simply too violent. You must know that when Lupin taught Harry, he only took a boggart as a teaching aid, and here it is directly on the real thing.
However, the other two students did not show any surprise, and after leaving the classroom, after David's kind explanation, Ryan finally figured out the reason.
Castro Bruzzo specializes in magical plants and magical beasts, and they make extensive use of a wide variety of creatures in their teachings. Compared to the UK, where most magical creatures are safer, the Amazon is much more dangerous. So this time, the two of them felt normal to use the Dementors as teaching aids, not to mention that there was a professor next to them, so there was absolutely no problem with safety.
In this comparison, there are still some deficiencies in wizarding education in the UK, and Ryan thinks this may be the reason why they came out to exchange and study this time. Compare yourself to other schools and know your own shortcomings.
Because of the study just now, everyone is already very tired. So after saying goodbye to each other, we went to dinner.
The next day happens to be a Saturday off, so Ryan plans to get some sleep. When he was woken up by Hermione in the morning as he was sleeping soundly in his bed, Ryan saw her standing in the room dressed up.
"Hurry up, and say that you can't be lazy just because you're not at Hogwarts for training every Saturday. She said aloud, drawing the curtains up to let the sun shine into the carriage.
Ryan had to be thankful that he had learned to sleep in his pajamas after so many years in England, and that he would not be rude now. But he was still surprised and blocked the sunlight outside with his hand and said, "Hermione - this is my dorm, how did you get in?"
"Don't you know that this carriage is the same as the dormitory of our school, where girls can enter the boys' dormitory. Legend has it that the founder of the school thought boys were less reliable than girls," Hermione said, raising an eyebrow.
"It's not fair. Ryan grumbled, then turned to Hermione and said, "Alright, I'm going to get up and wash up now." Please wait outside for a while. ”
After washing up, Ryan made his way to the corridor of the carriage, where Hermione was already waiting. The magic of the space folding class was unleashed here, so the corridor was spacious, and they decided to practice here today.
Because today is the first practice of this school year, the two of them started a sparring practice first, which is a summary of the previous school year and a reference for the next step. Naturally, in this kind of sparring, Ryan will limit his abilities and only use spells and powers similar to Hermione's, otherwise the sparring will be meaningless.
Through a long period of studying magic together, Ryan discovers that Hermione is not a genius when it comes to learning combat magic (Harry is a genius, and he can use the Drill Heart Charm to knock Bella over just by listening to spells, albeit only half-heartedly). But it's very telling that she didn't fight back and just lay down), but her cleverness and hard work can achieve good results in most skills, and magic battles are naturally included. For example, Hermione, who only mastered the spells in the textbook this time, performed a little better in that combat class than Daphne, who has a family heritage
In this sparring session, Ryan found that after many previous practices, Hermione began to slowly adapt to Ryan's completely unconventional tactics that he had completely explored from actual combat.
For example, she can now predict Ryan's movements by observing his movements, and then cast spells on them. Many of the spells that used to be dodged by Ryan had to be blocked with the Iron Armor Charm, and Ryan was almost knocked down by the glass orbs she suddenly conjured as he shifted his footsteps.
Luckily, Ryan has recently gained enough combat experience in the wasteland, so he was able to defeat Hermione in sparring with ease. If you only have experience in dealing with zombies now, as before, maybe you will overturn this time.
After the exercise, two panting people sat directly on the corridor carpet. Hermione wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "I always thought that magic battles were like in the books, two wizards waved their wands in a dashing manner, and the flames formed by the collision of magic surrounded them. I never thought that magic combat was so tiring and needed to be constantly moving and moving. ”
"Maybe a wizard of Dumbledore's level can do what you say. However, our current level is simply not able to determine the details of the incoming spell on the opposite side, and at the same time accurately use the magic to cancel out the magic on the opposite side or choose the appropriate defensive spell. In this case, the only way we can dodge is to avoid damage and create better angles of attack. After all, no matter how powerful the requisition spell is. Failure to hit doesn't do damage. Ryan went back to his room and took a pot of sugar and brine that had been prepared in advance, and poured Hermione a glass.
"I think I've practiced hard enough, why doesn't I feel like you're as good as you?" asked Hermione, a little depressed after taking a sip of water.
"After all, I've been practicing longer than you, and to put it bluntly, these things are proficiency in addition to knowledge reserves. If you don't practice enough, you can't do it. Seriously, though, you can now use all kinds of magic in battle, which is pretty impressive. As far as I know, most of the students at Hogwarts don't appreciate this, and when it comes to fighting, they only choose the magic that is related to the battle, which is far less flexible than you are now. ”
Hermione, who felt a little embarrassed by Ryan's compliment, began to redden, and just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by a knock on the glass window.
