Before you know it, it’s Halloween.
With the explosive sales of "Dragonlance Chronicles", Dudley no longer had to worry about money for a short time.
However, we still have to go to the Forbidden Forest. Dudley has been to the Forbidden Forest no less than twenty times during this period, and he has also drawn a small map of the distribution of magical plants and magical creatures. There are many rare materials there that cannot be bought outside.
For example, the venom of the Acromantula is not only expensive, a pint is worth a hundred galleons. The key is that it is not sold except in the Forbidden Forest. It has a price but no market.
The main reason is that Acromantulas are too dangerous and can be dealt with by a single ordinary wizard. But when you find an Acromantula, it means you have discovered a group of Acromantulas. They are carnivorous, highly intelligent, extremely aggressive, and capable of rapid reproduction. Its eggs are classified as Class A non-trade commodities. Currently, the wizarding world has no means to tame this species.
Belongs to a quite dangerous species.
But there are really too many of them in the Forbidden Forest, so many that they are almost everywhere in its sphere of influence.
When Dudley and other members of the exercise group returned to the castle, they smelled the sweet and tempting smell of roasted pumpkin wafting in the corridor.
The roasted pumpkins really taste good, especially the pumpkins grown by Hagrid. Not only are they huge in size, they are sweeter than those sold in the market.
If you want to evaluate, only one sentence "color art" is enough.
Wizards also celebrate Halloween, but in a different way than ordinary people. There are no trick-or-treating rules here.
Dudley heard from the little wizards passing by that Dumbledore had invited a skeleton band, and it seemed that they were going to have a good time.
After all, this was Dudley's first holiday at Hogwarts.
It would be better if there was no Charms class.
Ever since Dudley used the 'Lighting Technique' to forge a 'luminescent flash', Professor Flitwick became particularly interested in him, believing that Dudley had a very high talent for magic.
He had expressed in class more than once that he wanted Dudley to transfer to Ravenclaw.
But all were rejected.
Therefore, every class must pay attention to the progress of Dudley's curse.
"Today's Charms lesson is about making objects fly." Professor Flitwick said, waving the wand in his hand gently: "Levitation Charm! This is a very useful spell. It can save you a lot of energy."
The podium, textbooks, quills, almost everything on the podium levitated one by one under Professor Flitwick's spell.
Professor Flitwick first demonstrated it himself, and then began to let the little wizards try it, but unfortunately they all failed without exception.
Dudley didn't try, he just stared at the feathers as if he thought of something.
"Wave and shake, remember, wave and shake. It's also very important to say the spell correctly - don't forget the wizard Barufio, who said the 'f' instead of an 's' and found himself lying on the floor On top, there’s a bison standing on its chest.”
Pronunciation is very important, especially for little wizards who are new to this magic.
"Wingardim Leviosa"
Professor Flitwick recited the incantation again, and the feathers slowly rose into the sky along with the incantation he recited.
In fact, for young wizards, the floating spell is still very difficult. It can be said to be the most difficult among the first-year spells.
Many little wizards failed, basically showing no reaction, and some even set their hats on fire.
As you know, Hermione has a bad habit of speaking very bluntly.
Without saying a word, he squirted at the little wizard who was assigned to his group. Yes, it was the big guy who almost set Harry's hat on fire.
Moxie.
"Your pronunciation, your gestures and movements are all wrong!"
"It's impossible to cast a spell this way."
"You say it's so awesome, if you can do it, you can do it?!"
Perhaps because he was used to being with Neville, Moxxi responded very unhappily.
"Wingardim Leviosa"
The first one to pronounce the spell correctly was, without exception, Hermione.
With a flick of the wand, the feathers on the desk began to flutter.
"Perfect, one point from Gryffindor."
Professor Flitwick screamed, pointing to the feathers in the sky.
At this moment, Dudley took advantage of Professor Flitwick's attention to Hermione, slowly took off his scarf, grabbed the feathers on the table and rubbed them frantically until the feathers stuck to the table, and then grabbed the wand. Start rubbing in the same manner with the scarf until you hear a subtle 'crackling' sound in the air.
The scarf around his neck was woven from wool.
Then...
"Wingardim Leviosa"
The same tone of voice and the same standard movements as Hermione's, so completely consistent and standard that they couldn't be reproduced in a standard way.
Of course, ignore Dalinar's mountain-like body shape.
The feather actually 'flyed'.
"Oh, my God."
Professor Flitwick screamed loudly, pointing in Dudley's direction.
"Look, Dursley is doing better. I think he has mastered the essence of the Levitation Curse. He only needs to raise his level a little higher to fully master this curse."
"It's hard to imagine that a little wizard can master it so perfectly the first time."
Seeing Professor Flitwick's excitement made Dudley suspect that he would pass out from too much excitement.
"Two points for Slytherin."
Got two points very easily.
Dudley shrugged, everything seemed so casual.
The little Slytherins nodded secretly.
'As expected of Mr. Dursley, he subdued Malfoy, chatted and laughed with Sir Carlo, and mastered the levitating spell so easily. '
So here comes the question, can Dudley do the levitating spell?
the answer is...
Know how to use a hammer.
He doesn't know any levitation spell at all.
But he can also make feathers 'fly'.
It's so easy that you don't need any magic to do it.
Because this is science.
The secret lies in the wool scarf. Dudley rubbed the feathers with the wool scarf, causing the wool scarf to lose electrons and become positively charged. The feathers gained electrons and became negatively charged, and the feathers became negatively charged and adsorbed to the table.
When the wool scarf rubs the wand, the wand is also negatively charged, and the wool scarf is positively charged. The 'cracking' sound is the sound produced by the neutralization of positive and negative charges.
The same charges on the feather and the wand repel each other, exerting an upward repulsive force on the feather, causing it to float in the air.
It looked like the levitation spell was in effect.
It's actually just a simple physical phenomenon.
Or called the electrostatic octopus phenomenon.
Dudley looked around speechlessly at the little wizards who looked at him with admiration. The poor children all suffered the consequences of being uneducated.
He doesn't know magic, but he knows science.
"Dudley you're awesome!"
Only Hermione looked at Dudley with amusement and said.
Obviously she recognized Dudley's little trick, but she didn't report it.
Don't forget, Hermione was also a top student in her grade at Oxford Dragon Primary School, and she couldn't care less about mere physics phenomena.
