Chapter 46: Red Hat
Hope came to the library with the note from Professor Flitwick and found the book recommended by Professor Flitwick and flipped through it.
The wizard's thirst for flight proved to be unparalleled, especially without the aid of external objects, and this book chronicles many of the wizards' modifications to the levitation charm.
There was also an older recorded spell before the levitation spell, which was used to levitate objects but not move, and was invented not to allow wizards to fly, but to catch certain magical animals, such as ball birds.
A magical creature capable of traveling short distances, so it is difficult for wizards to catch it, and it will be teleported away even with traps.
The appearance of the levitation spell solves this problem, and the ball bird suspended by the levitation spell cannot flash at will when it is in mid-air.
It wasn't until 1544 that a wizard named Giles Hobart invented the levitation charm based on the levitation charm, and interestingly, he thought he had learned to fly at the time, and even invited the wizards of Wizengamot to observe the levitation charm.
At first, he used the levitation charm on the stones, tables, etc., until he used the levitation charm on himself, and he was trapped in mid-air and unable to move, and finally took off his clothes to get out.
Seeing this Hope was a little embarrassed, he had experienced this, but he was trying to make himself move and his spell was too powerful, which was better than him.
After seeing Giles Hobart accidentally float a piece of Wizengamot's wig while floating the Wizengamot's chief wizard's hat due to a mistake, causing the Wizengamot Chief Wizard to become angry and start a wizarding duel with him, and the defeated Giles Hobart used the levitation charm to control the Wizengamot Chief Wizard, Hope suddenly had an interesting idea.
The levitation spell can prevent the ball bird from flashing at will, so will the wizard who is hit by the levitation charm also be able to apparition at will? This is much more cost-effective than the complex Spatial Imprisonment Spell.
Shake off the cranky thoughts in his head, and Hope looked down.
Perhaps it was the invention of Giles Hobart's levitation spell that aroused the desire of wizards to fly, and many wizards studied floating, some failed, and some played an unexpected role, but flying did not have wizards who did it.
The closest thing to success, the magic spell that can make people actually achieve flight is called the hovering spell, which can hover people or objects at low altitude for a period of time, but it can only hover people or objects at low altitude, and it requires strong concentration and is easy to make people tired.
In order to solve the problem of low altitude, some people also invented the rocket charm, which can launch people or objects into the sky, but cannot fly.
There is also the Levitation Charm, which is similar to the name of the Levitation Charm, but the effect of this Charm is that a person or object does not sink to the bottom of the water, and if you use it, you will practice light skills and float on water.
After reading it, Hope copied some of the contents of the book, and he had some eyebrows on the flying charm, and it seems that the real flying charm is the one invented by Voldemort, the speed is fast and can be high and low, but unfortunately, Voldemort is not early, there is no record at all.
It seems that Professor Snape will also come, he used to be Voldemort's right-hand man, but now it seems that no one except Dumbledore and a few others know that he used to be a Death Eater.
And the flying charm is Voldemort's symbol, if Hope asks if he is not pressed to the ground by Snape to be recited by the Dementors, or is he poured a large bottle of truth potion?
Thinking of this, Hope shuddered unconsciously, lately, somehow, Professor Snape always stared at him intentionally or unintentionally every time he took Potions class, and every time he used that 'very casual' dispensing technique, Professor Snape would always find some reason for him to dispense a large amount of potions.
Now he has also learned to be obedient, and he has begun to configure potions in a proper manner, the main reason is that the difficulty of potions has gradually become more difficult, and that technique is no longer easy, he originally used it for ease, if it is not easy, he is also happy to configure it in a proper manner.
Time flies, time flies, and it's Defense Against the Dark Arts class again, and due to the performance of the previous classes, Professor Emerson has become the most popular professor, and he always sees a lot of interesting magical creatures in his class, as well as a lot of spells against them.
However, because Professor Emerson always made the little wizards face a group of dangerous magical creatures, and many young wizards were injured, but everyone still enjoyed it.
This also makes Madam Pomfrey resentful, the professor she hates the most is Snape, because Professor Snape's potion configuration always has a little wizard misconfigured and injured, followed by Professor Emerson, as a doctor, Madam Pomfrey hates the most is that someone is injured, especially the 'murderer' who causes others to be injured.
In class, Professor Emerson was still holding his trademark thermos cup, and he was grinning and winking as he looked at the trio of Hope, Matteo, and Caleb.
In anticipation of everyone, Professor Emerson lifted the red cloth covering the cage, and Hope looked at the hideous-looking little creature that looked like a fairy in the cage, this is the magical creature that Professor Emerson caught in the Forbidden Forest?
It's easy to guess what they are by looking at these little creatures, the bright red head is their logo, and the red hat is the magical creature they're dealing with in this lesson.
Hope's look at Professor Emerson couldn't help but look weird, it stands to reason that this should be what their third year is teaching, right?
Although they are small, not fast, or strong, and have many spells that can easily banish them, they are also real XXXX-level magical creatures certified by the Ministry of Magic.
The most important thing is that they are more cunning, they always like to hide in dark corners, and when someone passes by, they suddenly jump out and beat people to death with a big stick, and then smear the blood on their heads, and the most important thing is that every year there are still some wizards who are carelessly beaten to death by red hats.
Adult wizards are killed by sneak attacks, let alone young wizards who are not very vigilant.
Professor Emerson, who was looking at the scared little wizards on the podium, clapped his hands to attract the attention of the little wizards, and said: "I won't ask questions this time, I think everyone has guessed what kind of creatures these are, and students who like to read the Daily Prophet should know that there are always some unlucky people who are attacked or even killed by them." ”
"Look at the red on the top of their heads, this is the red hat of their prey's blood, the Ministry of Magic's certified XXXX-level dangerous creature."
The few red hats in the cage also hit the iron cage very face-savingly, glaring at the little wizards fiercely, as if they would escape from the cage in the next moment, and frightened the little wizards in the audience pale.
