The Christmas vacation of 1992 ended quickly. Tiera only accompanied Harry around in the first few days. After Harry got over the novelty, Tiera started to drag Harry to the library together. study.
With the company of Harry's scent, Tiera felt that her learning efficiency was much higher, and she finally completed the analysis of the magical configuration of the sixth layer of spiritual wall before the end of the winter vacation.
In addition to the Helis potion, building the sixth level of spiritual wall also requires a concentrated flower juice called Typhon.
Extracting this kind of flower juice is quite troublesome. It takes more than a month of continuous extraction using a rotary evaporator to extract a small bottle of flower juice enough for Tiera from dozens of kilograms of Typhon flowers.
After Tiera finished refining the "Seal of Venn" brooch, she placed a rotary evaporation device consisting of a rotating spell, flame control technique, temperature control technique, a crucible filled with water, a condenser tube, and two distilling bottles. Inside Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets.
In order to truly build the sixth level of spiritual wall, the rotary evaporation device will need to work for at least half a month.
After the winter vacation, the students of Hogwarts returned to school one after another.
Ron couldn't wait to share his winter vacation experience with Tiera and Harry——
This winter vacation, Ron went to Romania with his parents to visit his second brother Charlie, who raised dragons there.
Hermione, on the other hand, chattered endlessly sharing her winter vacation preview results with Tiera, and asked Tiera for some questions she didn't understand -
Thank God, Hermione finally gave up her fantasy and devoted herself to her studies.
But what is desperate is that Hermione, who is devoted to studying, is more annoying than ever -
"Tiera, should this Latin pronunciation be pronounced as a soft s or a soft f in this spell?"
"Tiera, I don't understand something here. I don't know how to connect this transformation magic spell with its material conformation."
"Tiera, shouldn't the calculation result of this potion formula be negative? Why does the result I calculated fall in the positive range? Can you help me find out where I made the mistake?"
"Tiera, this..."
"Tiera, that..."
"Tiera..."
"Tiera!" Hermione suddenly growled.
"Hmm...huh?" Tiera, who had been paying attention to Gilderoy Lockhart, came back to her senses and leaned back.
"Do you feel...do you feel that Professor Lockhart is a little different?" Hermione, who was sitting in the row behind Tiera, asked quietly.
"Um...yeah." Tiera glanced at Gilderoy Lockhart on the podium, and then replied casually.
This is the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class of the new semester, and Gilderoy Lockhart stood in the classroom early.
Hermione was right. Compared with the Gilderoy Lockhart before Christmas, the Gilderoy Lockhart now had indeed changed.
Although Gilderoy Lockhart was still as usual, with a frivolous smile on his face.
But every student felt that their Professor Gilderoy Lockhart had changed dramatically.
It was an intuitive change in perception. If Gilderoy Lockhart was a clown before Christmas——
Then Gilderoy Lockhart is like a truly powerful wizard now——
His every move is filled with strong self-confidence and a strong self-esteem that is beyond words.
Only Tiera knows——
Gilderoy Lockhart was finally screwed by Tom Riddle.
During the three weeks of Christmas vacation, how did Tom Riddle persuade Gilderoy Lockhart to take the potion he designed step by step? How did Gilderoy Lockhart get spoiled after taking the potion? Yela saw it all.
I have to admit that Tom Riddle is indeed a genius, a genius in any aspect, including but not limited to potions, spells, magic rituals, MLM and PUA.
Through a simple but cruel blood sacrifice ritual and a bowl of potion, the useless Gilderoy Lockhart became a normal wizard in just three weeks of winter vacation——
"First of all, I want to apologize to everyone here." Gilderoy Lockhart said while standing on the podium. "It was my mistake that I failed to show you my best in the past few months."
"As everyone has guessed, I was indeed unable to use magic normally before Christmas." Gilderoy Lockhart said, "Because during the last adventure... As you all know, I was horribly poisoned by a vampire. Curse, in order to combat this curse, I had to take a potion that would disrupt my magic, causing the spells I used to always have some unexpected effects. I didn’t get rid of it until this Christmas I have overcome the influence of the curse and returned to my true strength——"
As Gilderoy Lockhart raised his wand, all the students present lowered their heads habitually——
But nothing happened.
In other words, nothing out of control happened——
Gilderoy Lockhart summoned a ball of flame from the tip of his sword, and the flame turned into a fire dragon in mid-air, then a phoenix, and finally-
It turned into a sphere that always hung in the sky, like the sun.
"Look, everyone, this is the magic I used to scare away the vampires at the end in "A Voyage with a Vampire". I call it - Sun Spell."
Listening to the sparse gasps coming from the audience, Gilderoy Lockhart grinned with satisfaction.
"Of course, I want to apologize to everyone here. This spell is not a sun spell, nor is it a spell I created myself. After all, when you write a novel, you need to exaggerate the plot so that readers will like to read it, right?" After finishing speaking, Gilderoy Lockhart smiled again, "This is actually a simple fire spell, plus the effect of a transformation spell. You will learn this advanced transformation spell that can transform flames in your fifth grade." I learned it in "Advanced Transfiguration Tutorial I", so I won't steal your Professor McGonagall's limelight here."
After saying that, Gilderoy Lockhart smiled again——
"Ti, Tiera..."
Hermione patted him from behind Tiera again, and Tiera leaned back.
"Professor Lockhart..." Hermione asked hesitantly, "I always feel that there is something wrong with Professor Lockhart... I feel like he smiles... a little..."
"A bit creepy?"
"Um, yes, you think so too?"
"No." Tiera denied, "Don't scare yourself, Hermione, Professor Lockhart looks normal. It's just that you haven't seen him for a long time, so you think he's a bit creepy. Take a closer look. Just get used to it." Tiera said nonchalantly.
Gilderoy Lockhart's smile was a little bit charming——
Gilderoy Lockhart's smile was breathtaking.
That smile is no longer a simple exaggeration and showoff——
It was a smile with the cruel desire of a beast.
Tiera saw Gilderoy Lockhart glance at Hermione first——
But in the end it fell on myself.
Then Tiera's fingers pressing on the diary "heard" Tom Riddle saying to Gilderoy Lockhart:
"He'll be next."
