"Float into the air."

Outside the backyard, Ron suspended the stone he had been "lifting" all these days into the air again, and then he looked at Hermione not far away and said:

"Alright...... What else do I need to do next? ”

"You don't have to do anything, just let it float in the air, but you'll have to go back a little further." Hermione held a card in her left hand and her wand in her right hand, and said to Ron in front of her, "Yes, that's it......"

As Ron took a few steps back and left the rock, Hermione raised her wand and waved it lightly. Suddenly, the card in her left hand flew out and spun and landed where Ron had been standing.

Then, in the next moment, Hermione's eyes suddenly froze, and Ron immediately felt the stone controlled by the levitation charm sink suddenly.

"Oops-"

"Bang!"

With Ron's exclamation, the human-sized rock crashed to the ground, falling faster than it could have freefall. When the gravel and soil were splashed, the ground was smashed into a shallow pit.

"This ......"

Although Ron was not hit, he was so startled that he didn't even feel the pain of the stone hitting his body. He just looked at the rock that had a small part of it submerged into the ground, and said with a stunned expression:

"Hermione, is this what Maca calls 'rule magic'? Have you learned? ”

Even the silent mantra technique actually needs to be recited silently in the mind, and since the mantra is to be recited, it is necessary to prepare time.

But just now, Hermione's mind moved slightly after throwing out the card, and he felt that his levitation charm could no longer support the rock that seemed to sink several times as much - such a magic with both speed and power was too suitable for actual combat.

However, Hermione quickly shook her head when she saw him ask.

"Where can I call it 'learning'?" She said seriously, "Based on my current understanding of this rule, the power I can exert is only the surface of it. ”

"Is this 'fur'?" Ron looked at the rock in front of him, blinked in disbelief, and said, "I said Hermione...... Look at your momentum, are you planning to catch up with Maca? ”

"No kidding," Hermione pursed her lips when she heard this, "Now that I've started to learn the rules rune, I can really understand how powerful Maca is—he's too much stronger than we are." ”

Ron listened, scratched his head and said:

"Then you can at least see Maca's 'back' now, no, you must be much stronger than me."

Seeing him say this, Hermione immediately glared at him, and then pointed to the notebook in his pocket and said:

"That's why I let you learn ancient magic! If you can figure out all the contents of my notebook, you can start trying to learn the rules runes. Don't say I didn't give you a chance! ”

"Alas......"

Seeing Hermione say this, Ron couldn't help but sigh after all.

"You also know that I'm not as smart as you, and you've seen it in the past two days, and I can barely tell the difference between those magic texts, let alone understand their meaning. And even if I had memorized a lot of patterns and symbols by rote, I wouldn't have been able to learn the rules and runes that required more wisdom! ”

"Alright," Hermione said with some dissatisfaction, "don't complain there - come back to the yard with the stones, and continue reading the notes I gave you." ”

……

Just as Hermione was trying the "gravity" rule rune for the first time and it was beginning to work, on the other side, Maca was called by Luna to the living room on the first floor of the Wizarding Tower.

Looking at the back of Luna, who was dragging him by the sleeve, Maca couldn't help but wonder:

"Luna, what's wrong? So mysterious? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Luna, who had already dragged Maca into the house, suddenly stopped and turned around slightly.

"Maka, I have come up with a way that might help Harry get through the test."

"Oh?"

When Maca heard this, she was curious:

"How?"

Little did he know that Harry's problem was so difficult for him to do, but Luna seemed to have found a solution. And this, obviously, surprised Maca.

Immediately afterward, he saw Luna pull a card out of her pocket and show it in front of him.

"Empathy rules?"

Maca looked at the runes on the card in her hand, and her heart moved.

"You chose this rune? Well...... It does seem like a good fit for you. ”

This is also one of the first-level rule runes recorded on the Scroll of Truth, and unlike those related to "matter", this is a half-material, half-spiritual rule rune.

To be honest, it's hard to figure out why this rule is, and in Maca's view, it's not something that ordinary people can understand.

As far as Maca knows, its effect should be to create a conscious connection between living things, and if you have to be more specific, it may be similar to the "telepathy" phenomenon that is unique to some twins!

Of course, Maca only had a rough understanding of this rune, and perhaps only someone with a very strong intuition like Luna could truly understand its meaning.

After a moment's thought, Maca continued:

"So, how are you going to use it to help Harry?"

Unfamiliar with this rule, Maca had to rely on Luna to explain it to him. But to be honest, Maca had been looking forward to this kind of peer-to-peer exchange of magical knowledge with everyone for a long time, so he was enjoying it a little now.

And when Luna saw him asking, she immediately said happily:

"Once I've mastered it, I'll be able to use it to tie the wills of several people to Harry. When the time comes, we will be able to come together and help Harry get through that...... Do you think it's good? ”

"'Together'...... Is it? ”

After Luna's explanation, Maca finally understood her specific thoughts. However, this approach obviously did not fundamentally improve Harry's willpower.

If it was just such a "one-time" cooperation, success might have been successful, but after Harry was without everyone's help, how would he control the Gryffindor Sword and control the "rage" rules?

You know, if he doesn't have enough willpower in the process of using the Gryffindor Sword, even if he passes the test at the beginning, his will will will eventually be consumed by "rage".

"Wait," Maca pondered, and then said after a moment, "let me think about it...... Perhaps, this is indeed a solution to the problem! ”
