Hope came to the library with the note given by Professor Flitwick, found the book recommended by Professor Flitwick, and started reading.
Facts have proved that wizards' desire for flight is unparalleled, especially flying without the help of external objects. This book records many wizards' transformations of levitation spells.
Before the Levitation Curse, there was an earlier spell recorded, that is, the Levitation Curse. The purpose of the Levitation Curse is to levitate objects, but not to move them. The reason why it was invented was not to allow wizards to fly, but to catch objects. Inhabit certain magical animals, such as the ball evader.
A magical creature that can travel short distances through time and space, so it is difficult for wizards to catch it. Even if they use traps, they will be teleported away by it.
The emergence of the levitation spell solved this problem. The ball escape bird suspended by the levitation spell could no longer flash at will in mid-air.
It wasn't until 1544 that a wizard named Giles Hobart invented the Levitation Spell based on the Levitation Spell. What's interesting is that at that time, he thought he had learned how to fly, and even invited wizards from the Wizengamot to observe levitation. curse.
At first, he used the levitation spell on stones, tables, etc. very smoothly, until he used the levitation spell on himself. He was trapped in mid-air and unable to move. In the end, he had to take off his clothes to get out.
Hope was a little embarrassed to see this. He had experienced this before, but it was because his spell was too powerful to make him move, so he was better than him.
After seeing Giles Hobart accidentally levitate a piece of his wig while floating the wizard's hat of the chief wizard of the Wizengamot due to a mistake, the chief wizard of the Wizengamot became angry and started a wizard duel with him, but lost. After Giles Hobart used a levitation spell to control the chief wizard of the Wizengamot, Hope suddenly had an interesting idea.
The levitation spell makes it impossible for the Ball Escaper to flash at will, so will the wizard hit by the levitation spell also be unable to apparate at will? This is much more cost-effective than the complex space confinement spell.
Hope shook off the random thoughts in his mind and looked down.
Perhaps the invention of Giles Hobart's Levitation Spell aroused wizards' desire for flight. Many wizards have studied levitation, some failed, and some have played unexpected roles, but flying has not Wizards do it.
The spell that is closest to success and allows people to actually fly is called the hovering spell, which can make people or objects hover at low altitudes for a period of time. However, it can only make people or objects hover at low altitudes, and it requires strong concentration and is easy to do. Tiring.
In order to solve the problem of low altitude, some people invented the rocket spell, which can launch people or objects to high altitudes, but they cannot fly.
There is also a floating spell, which has a similar name to the floating spell, but the function of this spell is to prevent people or objects from sinking to the bottom of the water. If you use it, you will practice the light skill of floating on water.
After reading it, Hope copied some of the content in the book, and he had some ideas about the flying curse. At present, it seems that the real flying curse is the one invented by Voldemort. It is fast, high-power, and low-power. Unfortunately, Ah, Voldemort didn't get there early, there's 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 people knows that he used to be a Death Eater.
And the flying spell is the symbol of Voldemort. If Hope asks Legilimency, who is still pinned to the ground by Snape, or is given a large bottle of Veritaserum?
Thinking of this, Hope shuddered unconsciously. Recently, for some reason, Professor Snape always stared at him intentionally or unintentionally every time he took Potions class. Every time he used that 'very casual' method of preparing potions. , Professor Snape would always find some reason to ask him to prepare a large number of potions.
Now he has learned well and started to prepare potions in a regular manner. The main reason is that the difficulty of potions has gradually become more difficult, and the method is no longer easy. He originally used it just for ease. , if it is not easy, he is also willing to arrange it in a regular manner.
Time flies, and it’s time for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class again. Due to his performance in the previous classes, Professor Emerson has become the most popular professor. You can always see a lot of interesting things in his class. magical creatures, and many spells to deal with them.
However, because Professor Emerson always made the little wizards face a group of dangerous magical creatures, many little wizards were injured, but everyone still enjoyed it.
This also made Madam Pomfrey resentful. The professor she hated most was Snape, because Professor Snape’s potion configuration always caused injuries to young wizards due to misconfiguration. The second most resentful professor was Professor Emerson. As a doctor, Pomfrey What Mrs. Frey hates most is when someone gets hurt, especially the 'murderer' who causes others to get hurt.
In class, Professor Emerson still held his iconic thermos cup and smiled and winked when looking at the trio of Hope, Mateo, and Caleb.
In the expectation of everyone, Professor Emerson lifted the red cloth covering the cage. Hope looked at the ferocious little creature that looked like a goblin in the cage. This was what Professor Emerson had caught in the Forbidden Forest. Magical creatures?
Looking at these little creatures, it is easy to guess what they are. The bright red heads are their symbol. The red hat is the magical creature they will deal with in this lesson.
Hope looked at Professor Emerson in a weird way. Logically speaking, this should be the content of their third grade teaching, right?
Although they are small in size, not fast, not very strong, and there are many magic spells that can easily expel them, they are also real xxxx level magical creatures certified by the Ministry of Magic.
The most important thing is that they are cunning. They always like to hide in dark corners. When someone passes by, they suddenly jump out and beat the person to death with a big stick, and then smear the blood on their heads. The most important thing is that every year There will be some wizards who are careless and get beaten to death by red hats.
Adult wizards will be killed by sneak attacks, let alone little wizards who are less 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 any questions this time. I believe everyone has guessed what kind of creatures these are. , students who like to read the Daily Prophet should know that there are always some unlucky ones who are attacked or even killed by them."
"Look at the red color on their heads. This is the red color of their prey's blood. They are red hats certified by the Ministry of Magic as Class XXX dangerous creatures."
Several red hats in the cage also bumped into the iron cage very proudly, glaring at the little wizards fiercely, as if they would escape from the cage in the next moment, and the little wizards in the audience turned pale with fright.
