Ted also suddenly realized that yes, these animal statues and the magic symbols on the ground were indeed very similar to the magic puzzles on the secret doors that he had cracked before. At least it’s the same kind of thing!
"That is to say, the statues outside the magic circle should be placed in the blank areas of the magic circle?" Ron asked.
Hermione stared at the magic circle and slowly shook her head, "Hiss~ No, there seems to be something wrong with the symbols in the magic circle?"
She looked at Ted. After all, Ted had gone through nine years of compulsory education and barely received higher education. Although he had already returned it to the teacher, he was still better than these children who had never taken any serious mathematics classes.
Moreover, he now has very high intelligence attributes and is very fast in mental arithmetic.
He had been responsible for calculating the secret door puzzles several times before.
Ted blessed himself with "Arcane Wisdom", and used [Ravenclaw's Wisdom (Blue)] to increase his intelligence, and then began to "calculate with his fingers."
After more than ten seconds, he said: "Indeed, there are several errors in the symbols in this magic circle! It should be a deliberately misleading trap!"
If you just calculate the representative numbers of those statues and then fill in the blanks of the magic circle, you will be fooled.
As for what will happen after being fooled...
Ted looked at the stone swordsmen and stone wizards standing in a row not far away. These things couldn't be an atmosphere group to enhance the atmosphere, right?
But who arranged this level?
Also, how did Quirrell and Voldemort get through?
From the looks of the formation, it didn't look like it had been moved, and there were no signs of forcible removal. So was it bypassed in some way?
It seems that Professor Quirrell spent more than half a year without any results.
Of course, the greater possibility is that Voldemort has great supernatural powers.
Although he is now so disabled that he can only possess Quirrell to act, and his strength is beyond comparison, the knowledge in his head is enough to deal with many situations.
The half-dead legendary dark wizard is also a legend!
Ted began to calculate the correct location of the symbols and statues. Because we need to first understand the "formula" represented by the array, and then analyze the numbers represented by the many sub-items involved, it takes time.
This is also a time-consuming level.
He didn't stop Voldemort, but he stopped us!
Hermione walked around the magic circle several times with great interest, examined it carefully, and whispered: "This should be the ritual magic that Professor Flitwick mentioned, right?"
"What ritual magic? Why haven't I heard Professor Flitwick talk about it?" Ron said.
Hermione rolled her eyes: "If you had distracted less in class, you would have heard about it."
Harry said: "I have heard Sirius say something about ritual magic. Even the protective magic we have at No. 12 Grimmauld Place has elements of ritual magic."
A magical family with a long tradition is great, it has everything. envious!
Ted had probably finished the calculation and whispered: "Guys, you will place the statues and move the symbols according to my instructions in a while. I have to keep an eye on those things on the opposite side! Be careful, those things are definitely not decorations!"
After saying that, Ted also picked up a stone on the ground, turned it into an iron sword with a tap of his wand, and handed it to Neville.
"Neville, use this!"
Neville inexplicably took over the one-handed iron sword, the sword in one hand and the cane in the other, and felt that it was quite comfortable.
"Place the bull in the second row at three o'clock, and at the same time move the runes in the third row at five o'clock to the one on the left..."
Ted stared at the stone sculpture opposite. Sure enough, if this side moved, a stone swordsman on the other side also moved!
It lifted the stone sword stationed on the ground, raised its legs and walked over.
The heavy footsteps thumped like drums.
Neville took a step forward: "Let me do it, Ted, you go on!"
Neville first shot the Stone Swordsman with a "Expelliarmus", but it only pushed him back a step.
The stone sword and the stone swordsman are one body and cannot be knocked away.
Neville used another "Stand to Death" spell. This spell worked, making the Stone Swordsman unable to move his legs and could only stand in place.
Ted lived up to Neville's delay and once again corrected a symbol and the corresponding statue.
But another stone swordsman also came out with a sword!
"Let me do it!" Ron took the initiative and wanted to avenge his past shame by making meritorious deeds.
"If your legs are stiff, you will die immediately!" He followed the example and applied it directly.
"The slide is mediocre~" When the stone swordsman's legs were stuck and he could only move forward, he cast another spell.
This slide spell was very clever. The stone swordsman who couldn't move his legs fell hard on the smooth ground. The stone fragments flew away, and his legs were stuck and he couldn't stand up. Suddenly, The problem is solved!
Ted continued to work hard, and saw that the last few symbols and statues were missing. This time, two stone swordsmen came out directly from the opposite side, and there was actually a stone wizard with a stone wand!
"Be careful of that wizard! Armored body!" Ted instantly helped the careless Ron escape, blocking the flying stone bullets.
Although the stone wizard can't really use magic, he is actually a long-range one!
"Fire blast!" Ted squeezed his other hand hard, and a ball of fire suddenly burst out from the stone wizard's body, almost knocking him down.
Then Ted used "Burning Hands" again, spitting out a stream of flames from the palm of his hand, directly roasting several stone statues within a 60° range.
The stone wizard is on the edge of the Burning Hand.
"Frost Nova!" Ted ran a few steps towards the middle of the stone statue, and there was an ice ring.
The blue magic power spread around with a lot of cold air like an expanding ring, instantly freezing several hot stone statues.
Then due to thermal expansion and cold contraction, the stone statue began to crack.
"Oh my god! Cool~" Ron opened his mouth so wide that he could swallow watermelon.
"Ted, your magic is so powerful! You smashed them all in one go!" Jerry also praised.
Ted: Heat expands and contracts, boy~
If you want to directly smash these stone statues, Ted's current magical power alone is far from enough.
It would only be possible with an advanced magic spell like the Crushing Curse.
Normally, it would take a top fifth or sixth grader to do it.
But magic is about making the impossible possible.
I'm magic + science, why don't you just take advantage of me? !
Ted placed the last statue in the only empty space, and the magic circle on the ground suddenly began to glow. A magic power spread from the magic circle, and all the stone statues came to life!
Ted was shocked: Whoever arranged the level was still cheating after clearing it, right? I can’t afford it!
Fortunately, these stone statues did not attack, but spread out to both sides, raising their stone swords and crossing them, and greeted them neatly.
Ted and the others held their wands tightly and passed between the two rows of stone statues suspiciously.
Over there is another wooden door...
The house here is even bigger, almost like a stadium! The lifting frame is also much higher, it must be ten meters high.
Now Ted is more and more certain that this underground space is definitely not natural, but a space extended by magic, arranged according to the preferences of each professor.
This room is a bit weird. There is a huge chessboard in front of you!
Ted thought, this should be the level assigned by Professor McGonagall! Finally I saw something familiar.
However, when I raised my head, I saw a large group of dragonflies flying around my head.
"This..." Is this stealing Professor Flitwick's inspiration? ! Professor McGonagall, you can't do this!
The friends took a look at the chessboard and the door without a keyhole behind the chessboard, and then looked at the flying key with wings in the sky.
"Obviously, we're going to play chess!" Ron said.
"At the same time, we still need to find the key?" Jerry asked.
"But which one is real?" Hermione asked.
Harry grabbed the flying broom next to him and played with it, "It seems we have to have someone to play chess and someone to catch the keys."
Ted added: "Maybe they have to be completed at the same time. If I were to decorate this level."
"But... how did the mysterious man get through? Was he alone?" Hermione asked.
Because he was Voldemort, even the professors' levels couldn't trap him, not to mention that the professors were just designing a game and had no intention of stopping Voldemort.
They are testing the little wizard who comes in rashly!
"Don't waste time! He has been in there for a long time!" Ted didn't want everyone to think that they were dealing with a legendary dark wizard, so as not to damage morale.
"Ron, I'll leave the chess game to you, okay?" he asked.
"Ha! Just leave it to me! This magical chess has been passed down for three generations!" Ron's chest clapped loudly.
"I'll grab the key." Ted stepped on the flying broom, kicked off, and took off~
