Chapter 7: Draco and Boggart
Of the few spells that have been circled, the blizzard is the easiest to create.
Because Zhang Hao built a delicate spell model for it: use the water spell to condense the wind and snow, use the bird spell to give wind and snow power, and use the ten thousand bullet spell to control the trajectory.
To put it bluntly, the blizzard should be a combination of these three magic in Zhang Hao's imagination, and it only needs to be slightly changed.
Therefore, he planned to create a blizzard in three days.
Then it takes a day to become proficient and then bring it to life.
The rest of the spells were left to chance, because those spells were difficult to think about.
Firestorm requires dropping a seed of powerful magic at the target's feet, and then a raging pillar of fire rises from the target's feet - it's too difficult!
The magic of this world is straightforward, and there has never been such magic with traps.
Just imagine when the enemy thinks you've put the spell empty...... Begin to laugh at you unscrupulously, and as a result, the empty spell suddenly goes berserk, what will be the mood of the enemy?
Zhang Hao thought to himself, the negative emotions should not be less than 999!
This kind of magic is best suited to Voldemort, as he likes to be blind when he has the upper hand.
Creating Thunderstorm is more difficult than Firestorm, which is a different type of magic.
It requires speed, power, and explosiveness, so that the enemy has no time to react.
In this world, traditional attack magic uses parallel ballistics, while Thunderstorm uses a vertical trajectory, which can also cause unexpected effects when used for the first time.
Zhang Hao imagined that perhaps he could keep the Flame Storm and Thunderstorm as hole cards, and then change out two castrated versions for the Ministry of Magic.

The illusion shattered, and a new day began.
Zhang Hao woke up Draco, and the two went to the common room to prepare for their homework.
"Can you be gentler next time?" Draco said dissatisfied, "Why do you have to pour cold water on my face?"
"Are you embarrassed to say?" Zhang Hao spread his hands and said, "When can I wake you up with ordinary methods?"
The sleoziness, laziness of young men is hard to correct, and Draco is no different, he sleeps in bed almost every morning.
In order to help Draco get rid of his stinky problem, Zhang Hao would conjure up zero degree Celsius ice water every day and splash it on his face.
No one who had ever experienced such a thing would know what it was like to be splashed with cold water in his sleep, and Draco even made a donkey bark when he was splashed with cold water for the first time.
He protested many times without success, and finally had to accept his fate.
Of course, he inevitably had to complain every day.
Oh, and there are many more things he is dissatisfied with, such as:
"But it's not my usual day!" he growled, "and you've made me sleep three minutes less!"
Zhang Hao kept silent and did not give any explanation for this. He won't admit that he's playing a prank, or that he likes to play tricks on people.
After a few moments, Draco finally calmed down. He yawned and said, "I found a flower that emits a white mist and makes things that come close to it invisible. I think I can use this flower as a bush, what do you think?"
Zhang Hao was a little surprised, he didn't expect Draco to really find such a plant.
"Is this flower afraid of magical attacks?" he asked, "Anything can happen in a LOL match, and it can't be ruled out that someone deliberately used magic to destroy the terrain like you did last time." You can't just think about efficacy, you have to think about its magic resistance. β
"Hmph, what you can think of, I can't think of?" Draco said unhappily, "That flower is called the Underworld Flower, and it's a magical plant that grows near the pyramids of Egypt. The flower of the underworld is very vigorous, and it is not afraid of flames, and it does not need much water to grow. It's easy to feed and doesn't die easily, you just need to get some bones every once in a while to nourish it. I don't think there's any other plant that fits it better!"
"Then how many Underworld Flowers can you get?" Zhang Hao thought about it for a while and said, "Since you think it's very suitable, let's start arranging it quickly!"
"What about the funds?" Draco said, rubbing his fingers, "There should be activity funds for the club, right?"
"Funds?" Zhang Hao said in surprise: "I thought your father was willing to sponsor!"
"Hmph, my dad's money doesn't come from the wind, why does he sponsor the LOL club?" Draco said proudly, "You have to come up with a quid pro quo, or don't expect to ask my dad for sponsorship." β
"Do you have a place in the next competition?" Zhang Hao smiled: "How about this idea?"
"It's okay!" Draco's tone was nonchalant, but the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
Obviously, he was quite happy inside.
"What are your plans for the LOL revision?" he thought for a moment and asked, "Our last game was really bad, it's not as good as what you played on your computer." You'd better find a way to get the health bar out...... What other bizarre equipment. β
This is also something that Zhang Hao is considering, after the last LOL competition, some viewers with very poor quality were very dissatisfied.
They have no idea how difficult it is to perfect a game, or how you can't do it overnight.
They always like to measure reality with fantasy, and use simple minds to speculate on things they don't understand.
In the face of this part of the audience, Zhang Hao had to choose to tolerate.
He can not do LOL competitions, and a mere LOL can only make him a little money.
There are so many channels to make money, he can choose another way.
He insisted because he had to be worthy of the people who really supported him.
"I'll figure out a way, and before the next LOL match, I should be able to improve some of the rules. He said calmly: "LOL needs to be constantly updated, and I know it if you don't say it." β
Draco didn't ask any more questions, he had already fantasized about how to kill them.
After a while, it was time for class, and they had a Defence Against the Dark Arts class today.
Some Slytherin students don't like Professor Lupin because he seems too poor.
People are like that sometimes, and the reasons for liking and disliking are simple.
Some people can annoy others with a simple grin.
For the first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson, Lupin was clearly well prepared.
"Kids, do you know the Boggart?" he asked with a smile, "Can anyone tell me?"
Draco raised his hand in the air, he didn't like Lupin, but he liked the house points that Lupin was holding in his hand.
"Mr. Malfoy, you come and tell me!" Lupin treated all the students equally, and casually called Draco by name when he saw him so active.
"The Boggart is a nasty magical creature that can turn into something we fear. Draco subconsciously glanced at Zhang Hao, and then said, "To be honest, not everyone knows what they are afraid of, and it just so happens that Boggart can make people know this." β
"Very well, you've said everything I could, Slytherin plus a point. Lupin clapped his hands lightly and said with a smile: "So, the Boggart who stayed in the dark cabinet has no specific shape yet, and it doesn't know what the people outside the cabinet door are afraid of." No one knows what Boggart looks like when he's alone, but as soon as I let it out, it immediately becomes the thing that each of us fears the most. β
The students' faces became very worried, and even Zhang Hao's heart was up and down.
Although he is calm on the surface and usually acts very calmly, this does not mean that he does not have things to fear, he just does not know what he is afraid of.
Perhaps, the Boggart in the box could tell him.
"We have a big advantage in front of the Boggart, can anyone tell me what that advantage is?" Lupin glanced at all the trainees, and finally looked at Daphne and said, "Miss Green, do you see this advantage?"
Daphne hesitated for a moment, and said proudly: "Because Hao is here, he will protect me." Does that count as my advantage?"
The little wizards burst into laughter, and they didn't know what was so funny about it.
Zhang Hao almost fainted, this girl talks about love regardless of the occasion.
"Uh! that's a different angle. Lupin said helplessly: "Mr. Zhang, since Miss Green has high hopes for you, can I please tell me, what are our advantages?"
"We have so many people here, if we were in a circle, I'm afraid Boggart wouldn't know what to become. Zhang Hao said calmly: "To be honest, Boggart is actually no threat to us, what really threatens us is actually the fear in our hearts." β
"Very well said!" Lupin applauded, "These words are very insightful, worthy of the most genius wizards at Hogwarts." β
He paused and added, "When dealing with Boggart, it's best to go with you. So it confuses it: is it going to be a skeleton without a head, or is it going to be a meat-eating slug? I once saw a boggart make this mistake -- it tried to scare two people at the same time, and ended up turning itself into a half-slug, which wasn't scary at all. β
"The spell to repel the Boggart is very simple, but it requires great mental strength. You know, what really made Boggart completely finished was laughter. You need to force it to be a funny image, and it shouldn't be hard!"
"Memorize the mantra and follow me...... Funny funny!"
The little wizards followed Lupin for a while, and when most of them stopped making mistakes, he began to find someone to help him practice.
The first to play is the seemingly silly Daphne, Boggart turns into a toad, and then she uses a spell to turn into a toad that eats swan meat - this is a joke told by Zhang Hao.
Perhaps for Daphne, most of her fear can be diluted by Zhang Hao's jokes.
Then there was Draco, and the one he feared the most was Zhang Hao!
Zhang Hao, who has a gloomy face, looks like a zombie.
In order to overcome his fear, Draco changed the Zhang Hao that Boggart had turned into into the same dress that Daphne had worn.
Daphne blushed instantly, and at the same time, the classroom burst into laughter.
Zhang Hao glanced at Draco expressionlessly, no one knew what was going on in his heart.
Only Draco knew that he had inadvertently done another stupid thing.
"Mr. Zhang, don't mind what Mr. Malfoy did. Lupin forced a smile and said, "I think he must have had to do it, right? It's your turn nextβlet's see what you fear the most?"
