Chapter 13: The Secret Hidden in the Forbidden Book Zone

"Come, sit casually, don't be so restrained."

Hagrid brought a plate of rock skin cakes to the table, and sat down on the chair first, the wooden structure of the support frame made a creaking sound, which made Ivan and the others look a little worried, but fortunately, the quality of the chair is good, and it is still stubbornly supporting the weight that should not be beared.

"Hagrid, this is Ron, this is Hermione...", Harry pointed to the crowd and introduced Hagrid, but Ivan stood up before he could do so.

"Hello, Hagrid, my name is Ivan, nice to meet you!"

"Oh, me too." Hagrid stretched out his large hand and shook it with Ivan, but the difference in size between the two made the handshake look a little funny.

The big dogtooth in the room spun around Ron's side, sometimes pounced on it and drooled Ron's face.

Ron had already hidden the spot in his pocket the moment his teeth pounced, and although he had never heard of a dog eating rats, Ron was always a little suspicious after the experience of the past few days.

It's like someone is plotting to kill his rats...

Next, Harry and Ron poured out their bitterness at Hagrid's place, telling Snape what he had deliberately targeted them in class, and Hermione frowned, but had no intention of rebutting it.

Ivan didn't join in the discussion, and Snape was certainly not used to Harry, and he was also prejudiced against the Gryffindor students, but he still had no problem teaching, and many of the potion recipes taught were improved by Snape himself.

In particular, he unexpectedly gave him an excellent rating in the first Potions class, which made Ivan's curses a little unspeakable.

Of course, it would have been nice if Snape had asked more questions in class.

"Gringotts Bank stolen?" Just when Ivan was bored enough to try how hard Hagrid's cake roll was, a newspaper next to the teapot immediately piqued Ivan's interest.

Harry and Ron, who were chatting for a day, also stopped, and rushed to the newspaper, where they saw that it said that on the night of July 31, there had been a huge robbery in Gringotts, and it was believed that some black witch or dark wizard had done it, and the goblins of Gringotts insisted that nothing was lost.

"It happened on July 31." As if remembering something, Harry suddenly exclaimed, "Hagrid, I remember it was my birthday, and we stayed there!" ”

"Really?" Hagrid said vaguely, his eyes didn't dare to make direct contact with Harry, and the stiff topic turned to the rock skin cake, and warmly invited everyone to eat more.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were all so baddened by the hard brick-like rock skin cake that they almost didn't break their teeth, but when they saw Hagrid's eager face, they couldn't just throw it away.

Ivan secretly soaked the rock skin cake in the tea, trying to soften it a little, and barely ate half of it.

When it came time to get back, Hagrid was still enthusiastic, and stuffed a basket of rock crusts into everyone's pockets, even though they didn't want to...

The four of them returned to the castle together, then split up on the stairs, Harry and Ron made their way back to their bedrooms, while Ivan found time in the castle to find traces of the Room of Requirement.

Because in the previous experiments, Ivan found that no matter how sufficient the knowledge reserve is, without actual combat experience, the growth of proficiency may also stop.

The search continued until Tuesday morning of the following week, when Ivan found some traces on the eighth floor of the castle.

It was a wide hallway with many portraits, and at the end of it was a tapestry of a troll battering the silly Barnabas.

Ivan walked to the wall opposite the tapestry, concentrating on the required practice field, and after walking back and forth three times, a door appeared out of thin air on the originally flat wall...

The door was close to the wall, without the slightest gap, as if it had been here before.

Ivan pushed open the door with a hint of excitement, and when he entered, the door behind him closed automatically, and inside was a large training field, the hall was brightly decorated, and the left and right rows were filled with dummies used to practice spells.

[Ding, I found a mysterious place where there is a room for requirement...]

The voice in his head was what Ivan expected, but the task of exploration increased by a full three percentage points was something Ivan did not expect.

You must know that the library that inherits knowledge has only increased by five points, which shows how important this place is.

"Divided!" After Ivan warmed up a little, he waved his wand and practiced the spell he had learned.

The white light struck the dummy straight on the body, and with a "bang", one of the dummy's arms expanded and exploded, and the sawdust in the sky fluttered in the air, and was revived by Ivan with a recovery spell.

For the next half hour, all kinds of colorful lights swept back and forth in the practice room,

Transfiguration, Petrification, Flying, Light...

After nearly half a month of frenzied study, Ivan has learned all the basic spells, although the level is not high, but all of them have been raised to the level of the first level, so that they will not always be ineffective.

However, when he first tried his skills, Ivan soon found that his spell hit rate was a bit worrisome, and the fixed target was fine, if he moved the target, he might not be able to hit a single hit if he shot several shots.

Ivan also tried to redeem a Xueba experience card during actual combat practice, and found that this learning buff was also useful during actual combat practice.

The improvement of the brain's comprehension ability and analysis speed has enabled Ivan to be faster and more accurate in the process of casting the spell, and the hit rate has been greatly improved, and he can even predict the movement of distant targets and the trajectory of the spell rays.

This makes it clear that the level of the spell is the same, but in the state of the experience card, Ivan's strength is much higher than usual.

"I've gotten dumber and stronger..."

Ivan, who exited the experience mode again, couldn't help but sigh, after each use, the decline in the brain's comprehension always gave Ivan a feeling that he had suddenly become stupid.

After a morning of practice, Ivan's brain was already groggy and his magic was close to drying up, considering the afternoon flight lesson, Ivan rested for a while, then left the Room of Requirement, and found a secret passage on the eighth floor that he had never walked before, intending to go all the way back to the hall of Hogwarts.

As soon as Ivan stepped out of the secret passage with his front foot, the long-lost system prompt sounded again.

[Ding, explore the unknown secret passage, and the progress of exploring Hogwarts has reached 40%.
