58, Broken Grip
In the Book of Spells, Hoffa stares intently at the scene in front of him. He wondered why the previous generation of the Dark Lord and the Headmaster had met on an island.
"I don't see anything to talk about between us, Grindelwald. ”
Dippet whispered, "As long as you give me the remains, the three contested islands will be yours." ”
They're making a deal..... Principal Duppert actually made a deal with Grindelwald, and Hoffa, who was watching the memory, frowned slightly.
"No, no. ”
Grindelwald wagged his fingers. "I'm not interested in those agreements written on paper, and I'm sure Amandor you're not interested either. We wizards have always believed in equivalent exchange, so if you tell me the location of the library, I'll hand over the remains of the Sage to you, how about it?"
"I'm going to take a look first. Dippert said.
He looked calm, but the trembling fingertips showed that he was not at peace, and Hoffa observed this.
Grindelwald waved his hand, and several men in trench coats silently walked over carrying a large black wooden coffin, which was heavily placed on the ground.
Hoffa's attention shifted to the wooden coffin, which was carved with intricate religious motifs and topped with a black metal-like goat skull.
He just wanted to get closer and see what exactly Dippert and Grindelwald were trading.
Adebe Goshar stopped him.
In the next second, a man in the distance walked briskly and said sharply, "Wait a minute." ”
When Hoffa looked at it, his face changed slightly.
He had seen someone with a long face and a high nose, who was a little younger than Schmidt Rutrov. The Dark Wizard who had clashed with himself in the Forbidden Forest and Hogsmeade.
He wears a lot like Grindelwald, and judging by the cut of his clothes, he should be Grindelwald's subordinate.
But the strange thing is that although he looks like Schmidt now, his demeanor is similar to what he saw before.
He is not the cold, unscrupulous, emotionless appearance of the Forbidden Forest. He trotted all the way to Grindelwald with a look of joy on his master's face, and whispered a few words in his flattering ear.
Grindelwald smiled incomprehensibly as he looked up at Dippert across from him.
"My subordinates have just told me interesting news, Principal Dippet, would you be interested in hearing about it? ”
"Speak. ”
"My men have told me that a circle prohibiting apparition has suddenly been imposed on this island, and now no one can leave the island with apparition. ”
Armando Dupett was expressionless and did not answer.
And Grindelwald rubbed his chin: "Lord Headmaster, you don't seem to be flustered at all." ”
Armando tilted his head and put his fingers on his waist.
Grindelwald snapped his fingers: "Ah, I'm really stupid, I think there are such forbidden spells at Hogwarts, and Headmaster Dippert must be used to a life where he can't apparilate." ”
He said in a pompous tone, but there was a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Dippert didn't talk nonsense, he suddenly drew his wand and pointed at Grindelwald without any mud.
With a blinding purple light, and a continuous crackling explosion.
There were inexplicably more than ten masked wizards around.
They raised their wands at the same time, and the light from the tip of the wand and Deppet's spell converged into a thick purple lightning bolt and rushed towards Grindelwald.
Just by looking at the memory, Hoffa could feel the terrifying power contained in the purple spell.
"Is this a symbol of self-proclaimed justice? Armando, you are really skilled!
Grindelwald laughed and waved his wand, and the thick purple light was scattered by a blow before it could touch Grindelwald.
Grindelwald took three steps back, blonde hair spreading out in the frenzied power of the spell. His expression was not afraid, but full of fiery excitement.
The scattered purple electric light did not dissipate, they scattered like swimming snakes. And the wizards behind Grindelwald were not as powerful as him.
Many wizards convulsed and fell to the ground after touching the purple light, and Schmidt was one of them, who fell to the ground screaming. Soon, however, his body turned into a jellyfish full of tentacles, and he himself fled into the distance without his life.
He was joined by several wizards.
Dippert said with a cold face: "Catch them, and leave no one." ”
The masked wizards beside Dippet raised their wands in unison again, and each locked onto a German wizard.
"Have you asked my opinion!?"
Grindelwald flicked his blonde hair, and he held his wand in his hand in a strange way.
He read aloud, "Broken Grip." ”
As the spell was pronounced, the surrounding scene quickly began to change.
The ground trembled, the cliffs began to crumble, countless huge cracks and ravines appeared on the island, and huge waves were set off on the surface of the sea. It's as scary as a magnitude 9 earthquake.
Standing in the center of the tremors, Grindelwald roared to the sky.
Several wizards around Dippet fell into the huge ravine unexpectedly, and the cries of terror continued.
Hofa's eyes straightened as he watched the memory.
Is this the power of the Deathly Hallows?
The matter was not over, Grindelwald's face was bruised, and the Elder Wand was raised.
The shattered ground came to life completely, and they became entangled in a series of giant arms, and rubble flew across the ground. The dozen or so wizards around Dippert were all firmly grasped by the gravel arm and restrained in the air.
Except for Principal Dippert, no one else was spared. They screamed, but they couldn't move.
Seeing this scene, Hoffa's heart was shocked.
A single spell has controlled nearly ten wizards, so powerful to control spells!
Just as Hoffa wanted to continue to observe the development of the situation, Goshawk behind him clapped his palms.
Smack.
Suddenly, all the scenes in front of me stopped.
The laughing Grindelwald, the pale Armando Duppet, the huge rock arms, the struggling wizards, the scattered spells, the birds in the sky all stopped.
It's as if time has stood still.
Hoffa turned to see that it was Goshak who had stopped the flow of the Book of Spells.
"Professor, they ......"
"Bach, calmness is a good character for wizards. Goshak said, "You don't care about anything but the mission. Now, let's start the lesson. ”
He stood beside the sculpture-like Grindelwald and pointed at Grindelwald.
"This is Gatler Grindelwald, who dropped out of school at the age of 16 in Durmstrang, Russia, and became a German citizen at the age of 26, a very powerful dark wizard with great talent.
In this scene, Grindelwald uses a very complex magic. [Shattered Grip] has successfully controlled nearly ten adult wizards with powerful mana. ”
Goshak spoke eloquently:
"Shattered Grip is a spell invented by Grindelwald himself, it looks like a spell, but it is actually a powerful transformation spell that can change the scene through magic, thus creating obstacles and binding opponents.
Goshak stood with his hands in his hands, and said in a flat tone, "Since you came to me on your own initiative, then I will let you try to understand Grindelwald and learn about his magic." If Miranda is again by the signs of change next time, you can use this spell to control her. ”
Hoffa looked at the scene in front of him, the wizards who were firmly imprisoned by the rubble, and the earring-wearing Nimon was among them.
He turned his head to look at Goshak with the same expression, and couldn't help but feel in his heart that what Aglaya said was not bad at all, this old man was really iron-blooded. Sure enough, I let myself learn advanced defense techniques, or learn from Grindelwald.
Hoffa: "I'll try. ”
"I need an affirmative answer. Goshawk said rigidly.
Hoffa nodded, "Of course." ”
Goshak put his hand on Hoffa's shoulder.
Suddenly, an endless white mist enveloped Hoffa, and the scene in front of him quickly blurred.
......
Hoffa was inexplicably a little anxious in his heart, and he was dragged out halfway through watching the play, what was in the black coffin?
But he didn't ask these words, and Goshak didn't mean any explanation.
By the time Hoffa came to his senses, he had left the Book of Spells and sat back at Goshak's humble desk.
He stared blankly at the runes on the Book of Spells.
All sorts of confusion came to my brain.
But Goshak didn't care about Hoffa's feelings.
"Practice, and if not, I can guide you. Goshawk said.
For the rest of the night, Hoffa spent the rest of the night trying out the Shattered Grip, a shapeshifting spell, in Goshak's office. To his disappointment, the magic was far more difficult to unleash than he had imagined.
He copied Grindelwald's tone and syllables, but when he waved his wand, nothing changed.
Maybe there was also a slight change, Hoffa felt the dust on the ground shake a few times as he waved his wand.
But he wasn't sure if it was magic, or if he was swept up by the wind while waving his wand.
And when he tried to perceive and analyze the ground with his spirit like the Transfiguration Wand, he was met with great resistance, which Hoffa did not expect, as if the ground was rebelling against his own spiritual violence.
Goshawk was not surprised by Hoffa's result. But he also didn't demonstrate the transfiguration spell in front of Hoffa. It's just that he wrote down some analysis of the spell on parchment and handed it to Hoffa, asking Hoffa to go back and study it himself.
Just when he walked to the exit of the office, Hoffa couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Professor, if you want me to master the Transfiguration Charm, why don't you let me .......?"
"Don't let Albus Dumbledore teach you?"
Hoffa shut up, he did have this doubt.
Goshak shook his head.
"You are a Ravenclaw student, and a Ravenclaw student has a pride of their own. If you can, I'd like you to parse the spell on your own. Get out there, when you've mastered the Transfiguration Charm, come back to me. ”
......
Back at the Ravenclaw Tower, Hoffa was exhausted, but after he had changed his clothes, he didn't feel sleepy at all. He lay on the bed with his arms on his arms and stared blankly at the dark blue curtain on the four-poster bed.
When he was busy, he couldn't think quietly, but after he was free, all the big and small doubts came to his mind.
Goshawk said that he sent Miranda's parents to the battlefield, which led to the death of both her parents, and the relationship between the two broke down.
Miranda's parents are supposed to have died in that battle on the Black Golan.
So, did Headmaster Dippet and the members of the Violet Society all fall to Grindelwald......?
Turning over and slapping the pillow into a comfortable shape, Hoffa felt that something was strange, if it was just that, it stands to reason that the relationship between Miranda and his grandfather would not have broken down to this point. As she herself said, one-third of the students in this school have relatives who died in the war, and as grandchildren who depend on each other, shouldn't they understand each other?
Or is Goshak hiding something from himself?
......
......
After a make-up lesson, Goshawk had no intention of continuing to give Hoffa make-up lessons. He didn't even communicate with Hoffa anymore, and he became more distant from him.
Speaking of which, it was not easy for Hoffa to force the extremely stern Professor Goshawk to give in and give himself a small stove in private.
To master Grindelwald's Transfiguration, it is not allowed to ask Dumbledore yet.
Hoffa had a deeper understanding of these Ravenclaw pride, and while he had someone around him who knew Grindelwald well, Goshawk was not very fond of Dumbledore, but rather distant.
Unable to learn the Transfiguration Charm, and not easy to ask Dumbledore, Hoffa naturally flipped through his Transfiguration Cheats "Dissecting Everything, Structure is King". He hopes to get some guidance from this book by Morgan Le Fay.
However, Morgen says so in his book.
[Trying to use magic to change external objects is low-level, boring, stupid, and pointless.] A true master of transformation should try to change himself, and once he changes, everything will change with him.
Hoffa didn't know Morgen, but the guy had too much personal subjectivity in the book.
Grindelwald had already shattered the island with Transfiguration, could that change be low-level in Morgen's eyes?
