Chapter 224: Spell Duel (10,000 Words Big Chapter Subscription Request)
Headmaster's Office at Hogwarts.
Albus Dumbledore was sitting at his desk, looking at the note that suddenly appeared in front of him out of thin air, and a very confused expression appeared on his old face.
Because he really didn't know what kind of magic could send a note from an unknown place to Hogwarts, which was protected by countless magic.
In fact, so far, no one in the wizarding world has been able to invent a spell that can communicate and deliver items remotely.
Otherwise, wizards would not have gone to great lengths to domesticate owls to deliver letters and parcels.
If someone does it, there is a high probability that they will receive the Order of the First Class of the Order of the Merlin.
After all, this is a feat that can subvert and change the means of communication in the entire wizarding world, and it is rightfully praised by everyone and deserved the honor and reward it deserves.
But now, someone actually uses such amazing magic just to send themselves an invitation to a duel.
You must know that since defeating Gellert Grindelwald in a duel, no one in the entire wizarding world has dared to challenge Albus Dumbledore, and he is recognized as the greatest wizard of his time, and even the title of one has been omitted.
Even Tom Riddle, who calls himself Voldemort and the Mystery, still doesn't dare to get even a step closer to Hogwarts when he controls the entire British wizarding world.
The reason for this was that he was not sure that he would defeat his former teacher, the professor who had brought him from the orphanage into the wizarding world.
But now, when everything calmed down, a sudden appearance of someone who wanted to challenge himself was really incomprehensible to Dumbledore.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party had used a magic that he had never seen before, and the note appeared out of thin air in front of him, he would have laughed it off as some mischievous prank by some mischievous student.
"Who could it be?"
The gray-bearded old man, who was over 100 years old, had a very curious expression.
However, instead of disturbing the professors, who were busy teaching students and recruiting newborns for the second half of the year, he picked up his wand and quietly left Hogwarts Castle, following the address left on the note.
As the most powerful wizard of modern magic, Dumbledore was never afraid of any challenge, and the lion-like courage of Gryffindor House flowed through his veins.
After leaving the range of the castle's magical protection, he quickly cast a phantom shifter to teleport to the designated location.
As soon as he appeared, he immediately noticed several figures wearing cloaks and hoods.
Because his face was covered, Dumbledore couldn't see the other party's appearance and age clearly, and could only feel that the other party's body exuded a strange aura that was not easy to describe in words, just like those ghosts in Hogwarts Castle.
You don't need to ask to know that these people are the lichs who have just passed through the portal from the continent of Faeron.
As for Zuo Si himself, he blessed himself with a high-level invisibility technique, silently standing on the top of a tree, providing these subordinates with the necessary magic net environment for casting spells.
Through a simple test, he realized that the reason why classes bound to lands can still play a role after leaving the original world is that when the lands are active, they will form a certain range of overlapping magical environments around them.
That is, it satisfies the casting environment of the world in which the land is located, and does not affect the casting environment of the current world.
The higher the level of a land, the greater the area of influence.
At best, the LV2 Floating City Tower could affect the surrounding distance of less than 400 meters.
It's just that the creator profession itself has no ability to cast spells, and mainly creates various magical items and strange things, so the feeling of this aspect is not obvious.
But after leaving Faerun, Zuo Si could immediately feel the influence of the land cards on the mage, priest, archmage, mysticist, and other professions.
Based on the LV7 lands currently in effect, the maximum area of influence is about 10 kilometers from the traveling mage itself.
This also means that once the distance is exceeded, all kinds of magic and magic from Faeron will not be able to take effect.
In particular, those legendary magic, spells that change the environment and climate on a large scale, as well as various long-distance teleportation magic, are also firmly limited to a radius of ten kilometers.
For example, the [Fimble Winter], which can maintain extreme cold weather such as heavy snow, strong winds and hail for a month to three months within a maximum of several tens of kilometers;
Another example is to summon the energy of darkness and destruction into the world, destroying everything within a radius of hundreds or even thousands of kilometers.
As for the Five Rings [Teleportation Technique], which can easily teleport thousands of kilometers away, it can only move a limit distance of ten kilometers at a time.
In short, the higher the cast level and the greater the influence range of high-level and even legendary spells mastered, the more a land card with a low level will become a constraint and restriction.
However, spells that have already been crafted into cards are not subject to these restrictions.
Just when Zuo Si was considering whether to upgrade the [Floating City Tower] land card to see if it would produce some special abilities after LV7, Dumbledore finally broke his silence and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"It doesn't matter who we are, it's important that we're going to beat you here. Come on, don't talk nonsense, let's use magic to talk. ”
Jeffrey was the first to step up.
As a veteran of the organization, he paid a considerable "price" to snatch this "starter" position from his friends.
After all, after witnessing the extremely advanced science and technology on the earth, the terrifying urban clusters formed by tens of millions of people, and the endless high-rise buildings, as well as the trains, cars, planes, and 10,000-ton ships that can run without magic, he is full of expectations for the heights that magic in this world can reach.
After all, even ordinary people can reach that level, and even if the number of casters is small, they should be able to reach the same level.
"I wouldn't mind a magic duel. But what about your wand? ”
Dumbledore looked at the other man's empty hands.
In his opinion, there was a strange aura everywhere in front of these people, and his own dementors could not read any memories, emotions, and thoughts from each other.
It's as if you're not facing a group of people, but cold, lifeless puppets or corpses.
In fact, Dumbledore was right.
As an undead creature, the existence of the Lich itself is already out of the category of "living".
Not to mention a mere dementor, all spells such as charm and mind control have no effect on them.
Because the real soul of the lich is kept in the life box, the average person only sees the shell of the body controlled by the lich's soul, and it is only problematic to be able to read memories, emotions, and thoughts.
Jeffrey didn't talk nonsense, and directly raised his hands while doing complex spell-casting movements, while chanting incantations that ordinary people couldn't understand at all.
In the blink of an eye, he blessed himself with a seven-ring [Spell Reversal].
When he was done with all this, he raised his chin slightly and said, "Wand? I don't need to rely on that kind of thing to help with spellcasting. ”
"Cast spells without a wand?!"
Dumbledore raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Although he didn't recognize what the spell the other party had just cast was, the strong magic fluctuations couldn't be faked.
And in today's wizarding world, there are only a handful of wizards who have mastered the art of casting spells without a wand.
But none of them can match the mysterious person in front of them.
However, Jeffrey, who was eager to understand the magic system of this world, didn't care about this, and after blessing himself with a few protective spells in advance, he urged impatiently: "Do you still want to have a spell duel with me?" ”
"Of course! Actually, I've been ready for a long time, and you can attack at any time. Dumbledore replied with a smile.
As a master of silent spell casting and wandless spell casting, he subconsciously blessed himself with an iron armor spell the moment he heard the other party chant a spell.
"In that case, then you're welcome."
As he spoke, Jeffrey followed the tradition of spell duels on the Feron Continent, and the thug stroked his chest and bowed gracefully to his opponent.
Seeing this, Dumbledore also politely raised his wand in return.
The moment the two of them got up almost at the same time, the former took the lead in raising his hand and shooting out five magic missiles with ghostly light from his fingertips.
There is no doubt that this is a super-magical technique - the spell is instantaneous.
Dumbledore's eyes lit up with this never-before-seen spell, and he immediately raised his wand to unleash an apparition, flashing from one place to another.
But just when he thought he had dodged those beautiful magical light clusters, he suddenly saw the missiles that had been thrown off one by one cut a graceful arc in mid-air, as if they had eyes, and chased after them again.
After several apparitions in a row, Dumbledore finally realized that it was a Bludger-like magic with auto-tracking abilities.
No matter where they hide, these magic missiles will never stop until the energy to sustain the spell is depleted.
In desperation, he could only use the armor spell on his body to eat five magic missiles.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
With the impact of the missile shining brightly in the invisible energy position, Dumbledore's originally relaxed face finally changed.
With just five magic missiles, it had a great impact on the armor spell he unleashed himself.
Obviously, if left unprotected, any wizard could be killed by these tiny, inconspicuous-looking orbs of energy.
"Who are you?"
Dumbledore asked the question again.
This time, though, his tone and attitude were noticeably different.
It's a pity that Jeffrey didn't want to communicate with the other party at all, and directly sneered and mocked: "As the greatest wizard in the living wizarding world, your performance at this moment really makes me feel a little disappointed. If you don't take it seriously, I promise you'll regret it. ”
"There are many obstacles!"
Dumbledore didn't talk nonsense, and immediately chose to wave his wand and fight back with practical actions.
But unfortunately, this spell was instantly bounced back by [Spell Reversal], causing him to fall into sluggishness in an instant.
Seeing this, Geoffrey immediately shook his head in disappointment, and completed the high-level disarming magic at an extremely fast speed, directly removing the armor spell from Dumbledore's body.
Immediately after the last two seconds before the effect of the obstacle spell disappeared, the three rings of [Exhaustion Ray] were completed.
When the terrifying beam hit, Dumbledore's face suddenly became extremely pale and painful, and his already very old body seemed to die at any time, and even his breathing became extremely weak.
However, after regaining his mobility, he quickly used a silent spell to cast some kind of recovery spell on himself, and it only took a second or two to recover.
At the same time, the sorcerer, who is known as the strongest wizard of his time, immediately used a transfiguration charm to transform the towering trees next to him into a giant tree man who could walk.
The latter, after being awakened, immediately rushed to the location of the lich.
"Transfiguration? Summon? Kind of interesting......"
Jeffrey's eyes lit up slightly, and his mental state became extremely excited.
Because this is the spell duel he was looking forward to, not a one-sided crushing of the other party.
But before the trees could get closer, a blazing wall of flames appeared out of thin air in the path of the tree people.
All the trees that passed through it were quickly ignited and burned violently in the next second, and in a few moments they turned into large pools of firewood that fell to the ground.
In the next few minutes, Dumbledore finally showed the mastery of this world's magical system.
That is, there is no need to prepare, let alone memorize.
As long as you still have enough magic in your body, you can cast any spell you have learned.
And many of the spells may seem inconspicuous at first glance, but they play an extraordinary role in actual combat.
In particular, the Stop Charm seems to have the effect of disarming magic, high-level disarming magic, and even anti-magic force fields to a certain extent.
This is how several of Jeffrey's high-level spells have been countered.
As Dumbledore fired on fire, the Lich's spell slots began to be depleted, and eventually they were defeated.
Just as he was about to use his wand, scroll, and the magic items he carried with him to turn the tide, Vanessa immediately stopped him, "That's enough! You've already lost this spell duel, don't embarrass us. ”
"Damn it!"
Jeffrey couldn't help but curse in a low voice, but he reluctantly stopped casting the spell and said to the old man standing not far away, "You won this one!" But don't get complacent, I still have a lot of hole cards that I can't play. What's more, I'm not the strongest of them all. ”
"Your magic and spells are peculiar. Almost every one of them was unheard of or unseen, and not even the slightest trace of material could be found in the Hogwarts library. Dumbledore put away his wand as well.
He could see that although the identity and origin of the strange man in front of him were very possible and full of mystery, the other party really had no malice or murderous intent.
And there is always room for the entire mage duel.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as a few minor injuries and a little bleeding.
Normally, a wizard of this strength should never be nameless.
What's more, from the other party's dress, grooming and style of conduct, it can be basically judged that this should be a small group or small organization.
"There is no need to ask about our identities and origins, and there is no need to worry about us doing things that endanger order and the law. We're not interested in the island nation, we just want to see if you, who have been hailed as the greatest wizard of our time, deserve such accolades, nothing more. ”
Vanessa was straightforward.
Because after seeing Dumbledore bleed, he knew he had accomplished his mission.
At the same time, through the observation just now, the lich also discovered a distinctive feature of the "wizards" in this world, different spells need to mobilize different emotions and strong wills.
The latter may even have an unimaginable increase in magical effects and power.
During the spell duel just now, Dumbledore relied on a similar method to forcibly interrupt and terminate several of Geoffrey's spells from the seventh and even eighth rings.
Vanessa is intrigued by the wizards' peculiar ways of casting spells and their magical systems.
But he knew that this was not the right occasion to discuss with the other party, but to hide his secrets from another world.
As for the future, Zuo Si, as the leader of the organization, will naturally handle it properly.
"Just want to have a spell duel with me?"
With his suspicious personality, Dumbledore apparently did not believe this statement.
If it weren't for the fact that Jeffrey had just shown a powerful spell-casting ability, and that it was completely different from the current mainstream spell-casting methods in the wizarding world.
He would even mistake the men in front of him for the new Death Eaters under Voldemort's men.
Vanessa nodded slightly: "That's right! If you still have enough magic, you can fight me again. If you're tired, go back and get a good rest for a few days. We'll be here for a week to come, waiting for you to come and duel. ”
"And what about a week from now?" Dumbledore narrowed his eyes cautiously and tentatively.
"In a week's time, we'll be going home, and we won't be seen again for hundreds or even thousands of years." Vanessa replied in a pretended profoundness.
"Hundreds or even millennia? Are you some hidden magical organization from ancient times? ”
Dumbledore's eyes widened in disbelief.
If this answer is correct, then everything makes sense.
Whether it's the other party's way of casting spells that are completely different from modern magic, or a large number of spells that you don't recognize, they can all be classified as lost ancient magic.
After all, before the establishment of Hogwarts and other ancient schools of witchcraft and wizardry, that is, around 900 to 1,000 AD, the history of wizards basically did not exist.
At that time, all the wizards were scattered all over the world, secretly conducting secret research on their own.
No one knows how many spells and potion recipes were invented by wizards at the time, let alone how many of them were lost, and how many were handed down and gradually improved to become the magic spells they are today.
As for what kind of state wizards were in for thousands of years before that, modern wizards have no way of knowing.
The only way to find the knowledge and wisdom left behind by the wizards of ancient times can only be found in some ancient ruins such as pyramids.
"You think so, that's it. But remember not to tell anyone, and don't bring them to us. Otherwise, we will leave without hesitation. ”
With that, Vanessa raised his hands and began chanting the incantation aloud.
After a while, a large gate appeared in the clearing out of thin air.
As he reached out and pushed the door open, Dumbledore saw on the other side of the door the ornate decorations, carpets and chandeliers, and a large number of well-dressed servants.
At the long table in the distance, you can even see a steaming meal ready.
But before he could ask a question, the lich swarmed into the mansion and slammed the door shut, cutting off all contact with the outside world.
You don't need to ask to know that what Vanessa just performed was the famous [French-style mansion] in the Seven Rings Arcane, also known as the [Demon Duncan Mansion Technique].
Like [Mage's Sword] and [Great Split], it was also invented by the most famous legendary mage in the Greyhawk world, Demon Duncan.
It is said that even in the far universe, most high-level mages will learn at least one spell invented by Demon Duncan, which shows how amazing his influence and scope of influence are.
As a curious old man, Dumbledore was clearly interested in the door that appeared out of thin air, and the mansion that connected to it on the other side.
I saw him go straight to the door, raise his wand and whisper to the door lock: "Alaho Cave open!" ”
Unfortunately, the door lock did not respond at all.
Seeing this scene, the old man, who was over 100 years old, immediately couldn't help but smile and sighed: "Okay! I think this door must have been blessed with some kind of powerful protective magic. It seems that the level of magic attainments of these mysterious people is quite amazing. It's just a week too short, otherwise I should write to Nicol Lemay. I'm sure he'll be interested in the magic and spells of these ancient times. ”
Clearly, the lich's manifestations and magical prowess convinced Albus Dumbledore that they were an ancient magical organization that had been passed down to this day.
After all, no intelligent being from another world had ever visited the wizarding world before.
In this way, the Headmaster of Hogwarts quickly cast a phantasmagion and disappeared in place.
He now needs to go back to school, see Madam Pomfrey to deal with a few of his more troublesome wounds, and then rest for the rest of the day.
Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, we'll have a spell duel with these interesting ancient wizards.
If you can, it's a good idea to have some exchange of magical theory and the principles of spells.
Strive to keep those very powerful magic alive at Hogwarts.
As soon as Dumbledore walked on his front foot, he walked out of his hiding place with his left and back foot, carefully getting a little blood dripping from the weeds from the ground, and without hesitation, he summoned "Legacy" to mimic.
Moment!
The little blood he had just acquired in his hands was immediately absorbed into his skin, and the most important part of it was integrated into his body and blood.
After about a few seconds, a very strange energy began to expand rapidly in the body.
Fortunately, Zuo Si found it quickly, and suppressed this energy through the power of sparks in time.
Otherwise, it will definitely cause violent eruptions and fluctuations of magical power.
And the eruption of magic will be 100% recorded in the admission list of Hogwarts blessed with powerful magical powers.
It also includes a specific time and place.
If Dumbledore happens to be seen, it will be a lot of fun.
After this irrepressible impulse was suppressed, Zuo Si breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he saw that there was an additional [Wizard (Dumbledore Family Bloodline) - LV1] in his mimic profession column, and a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on his face.
After a while, the lich who had just hid in the [Mage's Mansion] also opened the door and walked out.
Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, he immediately asked without looking back, "What, what do you think of the greatest wizard in this world today?" ”
"Hmm...... I think his strength is very close to that of a legendary mage, and in some areas he has even reached the level of a legendary mage.
For example, the teleportation magic (phantom shifting) that can be cast repeatedly and without any restrictions in an instant.
However, the damage dealt by the various spells is slightly insufficient.
Of course, it is not excluded that he did not use those powerful spells, just as Jeffrey did not use the summoning, seduction, and control spells that he was best at.
Plus, the spell that stops most spells is peculiar and casts very quickly.
If there is no way to crack it, I am afraid it will be difficult to pose a substantial threat to it.
And I've discovered that the world's self-proclaimed wizard casters rely heavily on the tiny weapon they hold called a wand.
Especially the one in Dumbledore's hand, the arcane aura strength is almost catching up with many legendary-level magic items. ”
Vanessa thought for a moment and quickly gave her own judgment.
"So are you confident that you can defeat him in a one-on-one spell duel?" Zuo Si turned around and smiled playfully.
Vanessa replied without thinking: "If I let my hands go, I am 60% sure that I can defeat him."
After all, in terms of spell diversity and lethality, Faeron's magic system is much more complex than this world, and it is also much more dangerous.
What's more, the body of this Headmaster Dumbledore is already very weak, and I happen to know several necromantic magic that can accelerate aging.
Coupled with the mental arithmetic and unintentional, my odds should be quite high.
What, are you going to do something to him? ”
Zuo Si immediately shook his head: "No, of course not. I'm just confirming how high he can reach in the realm of magic, and the level of threat.
But it doesn't matter now.
Because I've got a ticket to enter the magic circle of this world.
For the next week, you'll be able to accompany Dumbledore to finish the play and go back.
I'll take care of the rest of the things myself one by one. ”
"Don't you need our help in gathering all the knowledge, technology, and magic of this world?"
Jeffrey has clearly fallen in love with the world and is a little reluctant to go back.
"No, I don't. And your identities and spellcasting methods are too sensitive, and I don't want to make too much of a fuss.
What's more, the reason why you are able to release magic normally now is entirely because of my side.
Once you leave my side, all of you will lose the support of the magic net in a minute, and I am afraid that you will not be able to release even the lowest level of tricks at that time. ”
Zuo Si unceremoniously rejected Jeffrey's desire to stay.
At least until the incompatibility of the casting environment is resolved, there is no way for these lichs to go it alone without him.
"The magic systems and spellcasting environments in different worlds are very different, and it is indeed a difficult problem to be solved."
Vanessa touched her chin with a thoughtful expression.
Fortunately, the Lich is immortal, and he has almost infinite time to overcome all the obstacles bit by bit.
In this way, the lich communicated with Dumbledore in this unknown place for a whole week (physically).
Until the lich left this world, the latter did not know that he was facing a group of undead spellcasters from another world, and he had not learned a single spell in battle.
Even though Dumbledore himself memorized some of the so-called "spells" and tried to use them when he returned, they all failed without exception.
Because if you want to release a spell in Faerun, it is not enough to have a spell, you also need the corresponding spell casting action and spell casting materials.
Spells and spellcasting animations may be ambiguous, but casting materials are definitely not something that can be easily figured out.
Similarly, Vanessa and the others did not reveal the magic system and creations of the Faren Continent.
There were just a few intense spell duels from start to finish.
As for Zuo Si, in addition to providing the necessary support for the spell casting environment, he also hid in the shadows and memorized a few spells that the "Headmaster" recited when he released the spell.
It's a pity that Dumbledore is a white wizard through and through, and he has not used any of the three unforgivable spells, powerful fire, and other spells with amazing lethality.
Otherwise, Zuo Si really wanted to know if "Avada gnawed big melon" was a negative energy spell in the necromantic system, or a legendary magic that directly targeted the soul, whether it could kill the lich as an undead creature.
With the expectation of entering the wizarding world, he honestly stayed in his own home for several months, except for a small burst of magic on his own initiative, and basically went to the British Library every day.
By touching the covers of the books on those shelves, he recorded them in his mind, intending to confess to the god of knowledge when he returned.
But in the eyes of the librarian, Zuo Si is undoubtedly a freak and an outlier.
Because he never opened a single book, he just walked along the shelves every day to touch the covers of those books, and people couldn't understand what they were doing.
Some of these highly specialized books are simply not at all understandable to a boy.
Thankfully, he had never done anything to destroy the books, so the Administrator kept an eye on him at best, not stopping or expelling him.
As the time came to July, when Zuo Si had just celebrated his so-called "birthday" and officially turned eleven years old, an owl messenger unexpectedly delivered an acceptance letter from Hogwarts.
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore
(President of the International Confederation of Wizards, First Class of the Order of Merlin, Grand Magician, Chief Magician of the Wizengamot)
Dear Mr. South,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Enclosed is a list of the required secretaries and equipment.
Semester is scheduled to begin on September 1.
We will send someone to explain it to you and your family shortly.
Vice-Principal (Female)
Minerva McGonagall.
As for the second page, it is basically all books that need to be purchased, as well as school uniforms and other small equipment and equipment.
"Everything is exactly as I planned. Looks like we've got the key to the wizarding world. I just don't know which professor will pick me up as a Muggle student. Oh, I almost forgot, it's time to call that guardian over for a favor. ”
With that, Zuo Si picked up the phone on the table and dialed one of the numbers.
In less than forty minutes, a white male policeman who appeared to be in his forties appeared at the door of the house.
Due to the fact that his memory was tampered with in a small part, he directly regarded Zuo Si as an orphan who was killed in the course of his mission, and quickly began to enter the role of guardian.
In just two or three days, a family atmosphere was created.
About two weeks later, a thin man with straight hair, a large hooked nose, and eyes that gave a cold and unfathomable look appeared at the door of the house.
He wears a black robe, and his skin is a vampire-white color due to the long absence of light.
You don't need to ask to know that this is the famous "Love Saint", Professor Severus Snape, who is currently a Hogwarts Potions Professor and the head of Slytherin House.
I saw him raise his left hand and knock on the door very rhythmically.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
When the white policeman heard this, he quickly jumped up from the couch and walked quickly to the door and opened the door.
When he found out that it was a stranger, he immediately asked in a tone that was not very sure, "Excuse me...... Who are you? ”
"Hello, sir. I'm a Hogwarts professor – Severus Snape. The children living in this house should have received an offer from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry some time ago. Since you are a Muggle family, the school sent me to give a brief explanation. ”
Snape put on a businesslike look.
"School of magic? You can't be liars! The white policeman suddenly looked at him vigilantly.
Since Zuo Si didn't reveal any information from beginning to end, his first reaction when he heard the word magic was that he had encountered a liar.
Snape knew how difficult it would be to convince a Muggle family of the existence of magic, so he pulled out his wand and tapped it lightly on the dried bouquet of flowers on the table.
Moment!
The whole bouquet felt as if time had gone back in time, and it was back to its original vigor when it had been inserted into the vase more than a week ago.
"Oh, oh my God!"
The white policeman sat on the couch with a thud, and the whole person fell into a state of stupor.
Immediately after, he quickly pulled out a sprig of flowers, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and then exclaimed, "Unbelievable! There really is magic in this world! Why haven't I heard of it before? ”
Snape explained with a blank face, "Because the wizarding world has a secrecy that prohibits revealing even the slightest bit of magic-related information to Muggles, ordinary people like you who don't know magic, and don't have wizarding relatives or friends.
Even if you know it occasionally, your memory will be washed away.
Well, you will naturally know little by little about these things when this child becomes a little wizard.
Now, let's talk about everything about admission......"
With his status as a wizard and his own powerful aura, Snape was able to get the titular guardian in just a few minutes.
After confirming that Zoth was going to Hogwarts, the two quickly agreed on a time to go to Diagon Alley Street to exchange Muggle currency for wizarding currency in order to purchase the books and tools on the list.
As for Zuo Si, he used almost perfect acting skills to express a genius child's yearning for the wizarding world.
After all, as early as when he was in the tower of the Floating City, he had full of his two skills, "acting skills" and "pretending to be tender".
Even the Necromantic Archmage Asta couldn't see any flaws.
When Snape finished his job and left, Zuo Si kicked out the titular guardian and uncontrolled the charm, allowing him to return to his normal life.
The exchange of currencies and purchases went quite smoothly as well.
Zuo Si didn't show any "money printing ability", he just exchanged enough money for a semester, and he didn't even glance at the things that could attract the attention of the little wizard, such as pets, owl messengers, and broomsticks, and went straight back after shopping.
Snape was clearly pleased with the restraint, maturity and intelligence he had shown.
The only pity is that the Sorting Hat will hardly assign Muggle-born wizards to Slytherin students, if not purebloods, at least half-bloods, so this is not destined to be students of his house.
However, Snape did not know what he considered a "good" student, and on his first night home, he dismantled the wand he had purchased from the Ollivanders Wand Shop into "parts" and reinvented, enchanted, and blessed with various shielding magic.
Although Mr. Ollivander, who specializes in making and selling wands, always emphasizes the saying that the master chooses the wand, and the wand chooses the owner.
But Zuo Si completely scoffed at this, and thought that this idea was as ridiculous as playing gacha and engaging in all kinds of metaphysics.
It's not even as good as a gamer who engages in metaphysics.
At least the latter understands that the metaphysics he is engaged in is at best a psychological comfort, or simply "live".
After all, a wand is not a high-level activated magic item with intelligence and independent thinking ability, where did it come from so many stinky problems?
It's just a tool that simply enhances spellcasting, and since it's a tool, it can be transformed and upgraded.
It's just that the magic of some wizards will be particularly sensitive to some special materials, and in the process of long-term use, the core of the wand will gradually adapt to the magical characteristics of the owner, and gradually form the so-called "human wand is one".
Once the wand you are used to is lost or damaged, it can be very uncomfortable to replace it with a new wand, which is far less convenient than the previous one.
In addition, there are very few people or families in the entire wizarding world who have the ability to make wands, and they don't communicate much on weekdays, which eventually led to the emergence of the metaphysical theory of the Ollivanders wand shop.
After a toss, Zuo Si's wand was completely different from when he first bought it.
It doesn't matter if it's made of wood
It's still the core of it, all of which have been transformed by Mr. Ollivander himself, and he can't recognize it.
In addition, Zuo Si also engraved many powerful magic runes inside the wand to enhance the effect of channeling and condensing magical energy.
After feeling the power of this "magical" wand a little, Zuo Si put it back with satisfaction, and then opened a copy of "Standard Spells" and read it with relish.
With more than a month to go before school starts, he plans to go through all the spells from the first to the sixth grade.
Spells that can be recorded in [Standard Spells] are usually not very powerful, and the danger is very low.
For Zuo Si, who has a wealth of magical knowledge, there is basically no great difficulty.
The reason why I chose to attend Hogwarts instead of other schools of witchcraft and wizardry was because of the castle's huge library and forbidden book section.
After completing the entrance ceremony and becoming a freshman, he promised to stay in it on the first night until he had read all the magic books.
More than a month of hard work is not long, but it is not short.
Zuo Si used this time to sort out the magic system of this world in general, and sure enough, he found that personal emotions and will play a huge role in it.
For example, when the Patronus Charm is released, the whole person has to desperately think about the fastest moment in memory.
If there is not enough happy emotions, then the spell cannot be cast.
The same goes for the Iron Armor Charm, which is often used.
The stronger the awareness of the spell to protect itself when it is released, the stronger the force field formed around the body and the more difficult it is to be broken by other spells.
All in all, unlike the Feron mages, who emphasize calmness, sanity, and keeping their heads clear, the more the wizards of this world are in a state of emotion, the more they are able to exert unimaginable power.
This is a good explanation of why Harry Potter's mother's ancient magic unleashed before her death successfully repelled the Killing Curse, making her the first and only lucky person to survive the Killing Curse.
"Is there a strong volitional and emotional element besides your own magic? Does this mean that the magical energy of this world is affected by strong emotions? Or is it strong enough to trigger a resonance between one's own soul and the magical energy around it? Zuo Si sat at the desk and muttered to himself with interest.
There is no doubt that this is a new research direction and topic.
If he did, a lot of magic would be even more powerful and lethal when he wielded it.
