Chapter 65: The Influence of the Basilisk Bloodline (1)
The first assembly of the Origin Club lasted half an hour before it ended, and about half of the students experienced the short life of the Glowworm.
Of these students, only a few managed to cast the Glowing Spell, and most of them were only able to light up a faint light.
This was more than Capet had expected, and his previous belief was that if one person could cast the Glowing Charm, his club event would be a success.
"Little wizards who haven't learned this spell don't worry, I'll give you a small bag of glowworm eggs and a glowworm cultivation manual."
"You raise the glowworm yourself, and you should be able to learn the glow spell in less than a month."
It was only then that all the students understood the meaning of Professor Capet's words.
"Learning this magic is difficult in itself."
It takes a month to raise a bug to learn the fluorescent spell, which is a bit difficult compared to the fluorescent spell that can be learned just by reading a book.
"Professor Capet," sixth-year Penelo Crivat asked, raising his hand, "is this the only way to learn the magic of magical beasts?" ”
"Oops," Calvin spread his hands, "didn't I say that?" The club itself is experimental, and I'd like to use you to find a quicker way to learn magical beast magic. ”
Co-authoring is using us as guinea pigs.
Many little wizards thought in their hearts.
"If there are any achievements in this club in the future, I will write a paper and publish it, and the students who have contributed to it can also sign it, not only to receive the manuscript fee, but also to add points to their own college."
Royalties?
Hearing this, many young wizards were excited, especially Ron, who had already turned to Hermione to prepare to work with her.
"Alright, Bas, give them the eggs and the booklet."
After all the students had got the bags and books, Calvin knocked on the World Tree, and the signs of life quickly faded, and the whole world turned yellow. Eventually, everyone returned to the empty classroom, with only a painting of the World Tree remaining on the wall.
"Alright, that's the end of our first meeting, let's go back."
"Ginny, you stay."
Most of the students walked out of the classroom with excited silence on their faces, and it was only after a moment that there was a tidal wave of heated discussions.
In the classroom, only the trio of Ginny and Harry remained.
Before Calvin could speak, Ginny and Ron said almost simultaneously, "Professor Capet, what's wrong with me (my sister)?" ”
"Rest assured, Miss Wesley and Mr. Wesley," Calvin pressed his palm, "we've verified that you still have the ability to cast magic, haven't we?" ”
"But, but, why can't I even cast a fluorescent spell?"
Ginny's voice was sobbing.
"I'm sure it's the effect of the basilisk bloodline on you, but I still need to test how it affects you."
"Professor Cape," Hermione said suddenly, "I just taught her the Bat Spirit Charm yesterday, and she's a quick learner. ”
"Really?" Calvin touched his chin, "That's giving me an idea." ”
"Come here, I'll teach you a few spells."
"The first, the Light Charm, is a useful defense against the dark arts spell that can effectively dispel dark magic creatures like werewolves, vampires, and banshees."
Hermione turned her head and glared and asked, "Professor Capet, why haven't I heard of this magic?" ”
"Of course you haven't heard of it, I invented it myself. Come, imagine that you have a group of dark creatures standing in front of you, and you have to flee in front of them. Follow me, and the light shines. ”
Due to their first exposure to the spell, the four young wizards didn't play perfectly, Harry and Ron's Ron's Light Charm was only slightly stronger than the Fluorescent Charm, and Hermione emitted a pumpkin-sized ball of light after a few attempts.
And Ginny, not only did she not succeed in using the Light Charm, but she even took a step back in the face of Hermione's light.
"Professor Capet, I'm a little unwell." Ginny said with a trembling voice.
Calvin nodded, "I guessed what was going on." Try the spell again. ”
"Darklight Crossbow Bolt!"
This time, Calvin didn't elaborate on the techniques and emotions required for the spell, but only told them about the spell.
This time the result was unexpected, as none of the three Harry succeeded in casting the spell, and they only released a black smoke in front of their wands.
Ginny's wand, however, emitted a black mist that exuded a dangerous aura. The black mist quickly coalesced into a dangerous bolt that burst out from Ginny's front and struck the wall behind the classroom.
Soon the wall was corroded black, and bricks that had turned to powder were falling constantly.
Several people present, except for Calvin, covered their mouths and looked at the corroded wall in disbelief.
"Professor Capet," Hermione asked tremblingly, "this must be dark magic." ”
"You're right, Miss Granger." Calvin waved his wand and restored the walls to their original shape.
"Professor, I don't think it's appropriate to teach ......students at Hogwarts," Hermione said, plucking up her courage, "the dark arts. ”
】
Calvin and Hermione looked at each other. The blood-red eyes made Hermione uncomfortable, but she still didn't dare to look away.
"Professor, I think Hermione is right that you shouldn't teach dark arts, especially to my sister." Ron said boldly.
Harry didn't speak, but he stared at Calvin with emerald green eyes.
"I have to applaud your courage. It's Gryffindor. Calvin chuckled, "You're right, I really shouldn't teach dark arts at Hogwarts. ”
"But I'm here to see how much Ginny's magic has been affected by the basilisk's blood."
"Besides, who do you think has the most dark arts in this castle?"
"Snape!" Harry said it without even thinking about it.
Calvin shook his head slightly, "He's still a little close." It's our beloved Headmaster Dumbledore. ”
"How is that possible?" The four little wizards exclaimed at the same time.
"Nothing is impossible, how can you fight against a dark wizard if you don't know enough about dark magic."
"What you really want to do is not to abuse your powers, not to abuse the black arts."
Calvin's expression suddenly became serious, his torch-like eyes scanning back and forth over Harry and Ginny's faces.
Calvin then had the four young wizards experiment with some other spells.
The results of the experiment were not surprising to Calvin: some aggressive spells, or minor evil spells, Ginny did not perform worse than Harry and Hermione, and even performed better in some simple dark arts.
And some spells that are biased towards the front, or spells related to light and heat, Ginny can't cast directly, and her performance is not even as good as that of a Squib.
