Daphne has understood the principle behind it and is now eager to try, "So, we should not blindly attack the enemy, but we must find ways to limit the scope of the opponent's actions while attacking and defending, right?"
Seeing Xie Lin nodded, Meredith also asked: "I still have a question. Regarding combination spells, I feel there is still a lot of potential that can be developed. Do you have any other examples to share?"
Since Xie Lin has made up his mind to cultivate two women as his right and left arms, he will naturally not hide his secrets. "There are many other examples of this. For example, when facing enemies with high magic defense, such as werewolves, trolls, etc., you can First use the 'corrosion spell' or 'hardening spell' to destroy their skin in a specific area, and then add a cutting spell or crushing spell at the same position, so that the second wave of attacks can more effectively break through the skin of the opponent. Magic defense. Of course, it is not easy to achieve this, and there are more stringent requirements for shooting accuracy."
"What kind of curse is the Corrosion Curse? Why have I never heard of it?" Daphne raised a new question without any reservation.
"This is a spell I just invented. It is improved from the water-making spell. It can spray highly corrosive strong acid. At the same time, I also invented the 'Sticky Curse', which can spray highly viscous paste, which can be used to make The terrain that restricts the opponent's movement is also a very practical spell." Schelling took out the notes he had written about these two spells from his pocket and handed them to Daphne and Meredith. "This is Regarding the records of these two magic spells, you can use them to practice. If you have any questions, please ask me."
Xie Lin then brought the topic back to combination spells, "There are many combination spells for single-target attacks. As long as you think carefully, it is not difficult for you to come up with your own combination. For example, 'front teeth match big stick' can make people grow longer." If you have front teeth that can't close your mouth, you might as well imagine what the effect would be if you add the "Grinning and Hula-La" spell to it?"
Daphne chuckled, "Xie Lin, you are so bad. That person can only keep laughing without shutting up."
Xie Lin shook his head and explained seriously: "I'm not trying to play tricks. If you think about it, whether it's a locking tongue or a throat-sealing spell, or a stick with front teeth, it's just an attack that makes it impossible to recite the spell clearly. method, but students above grade 5 must learn silent casting. Maybe not everyone can eventually learn it, but there will definitely be many people who know how to cast silently. To deal with these people, the above two magic spells will not be effective. .”
Xie Lin changed the topic, "But - think about it, if it is paired with the Laughter Curse, will the other party not be able to cast silent spells? You know, laughter is also one of the syllables, which is enough to interfere with silent casts. "
(Note: After being hit by a single laughter spell, you can still hold back your laughter for a short time, but if you can't close your mouth, you can't hold back your laughter)
Daphne and Meredith were both ice-smart people. After being given a little guidance by Sherrin, they were able to figure it out. At this moment, they seemed quiet on the surface, but in fact, they were thinking about how to combine the spells they knew one by one.
Since that day's training, the two girls seemed to have discovered a new world. Some new combination spell ideas kept popping up in their minds. Some were pretty good, and some made Xie Lin laugh and cry, such as the leg-locking spell plus the dance spell 'Tarantai'. La Dance', where people dance randomly with their feet together, okay, it's quite funny though.
The two sweet-natured girls also never asked Xie Lin why he suddenly became active in training them. All they had to do was cooperate unconditionally. That's because they also know that as long as they keep up with their own strength, Xie Lin will naturally tell them what they need to know. If they are not strong enough, it will be useless no matter how much they know.
Xie Lin didn't say anything, but when he saw two girls who were supposed to be rich ladies and were loved by everyone, pushing themselves so hard and severely to practice magic, how could he not understand their thoughts in his heart? He was secretly moved, but also I can only keep this thought secretly in my heart.
At the same time, Schelling's research on Death's invisibility cloak was also going very smoothly. He had successfully cracked the main principles of Death's invisibility cloak. This was because Schelling had received the complete inheritance of Nico Flamel, and this semester's The alchemy course also perfectly complemented his basic knowledge and made a qualitative leap in his alchemy.
Ordinary invisibility cloaks are woven from the fur of invisible beasts, while the Death Invisibility Cloak is engraved with the effect of invisibility by using the ancient Rune magic talisman "Hulinhjalmur" spread from Iceland. It means "invisibility helmet" in the Niger language. It is an artifact in Icelandic legend. It is said that after wearing the helmet, you will gain the ability to become invisible.
The composition of this Guruni Talisman is quite complicated. Its shape consists of a circle in the center, a square rotated 45 degrees and an octagon. There are eight protruding crosses in the outermost octagon. shape pattern. (Interested people can search for this graphic on Baidu.)
Even so, there are other secrets hidden in the God of Death's invisibility cloak, and it is by no means simply engraved with a Guruni magic talisman. Schelling used more than 300 detection methods on the Death's invisibility cloak, but only most of the materials were detected.
What is currently certain is that the pigment for engraving the Guruni Talisman must be a drop of blood from the left index finger plus a drop of blood from the right index finger, and then six drops of blood must be extracted from the heart of a living raven, and then these eight drops need to be added Drops of blood were mashed and mixed with the raven's brain to make paint.
After researching this point, Schelling encountered a bottleneck - he conducted experiments on several pieces of experimental cloth, and they all failed without exception. Obviously, in addition to pigments, the chisels used to engrave runes must also have some specific requirements - Schelling tried sterling silver chisels, bronze chisels, and black charcoal chisels, but none worked. It seems that it is quite difficult to complete the transformation of the Supreme Wizard's robe before the end of this semester.
This is of course very reasonable, otherwise, how could it be possible that no alchemist had invented an equivalent product in nearly a thousand years. The alchemy skills of the three Peverell brothers are indeed well-deserved. However, Xie Lin had samples in his hands to study, which gave him an advantage that other alchemists did not have.
Regardless, Schelling is quite satisfied with his achievements this semester.
Under the effect of the magic-enhancing potion, his magic power has caught up with the senior students, and after he maxed out his spiritual magic skills, his strength has increased a lot. The success of the Patronus Charm Exchange and the best-selling "Me and the Basilisk at Hogwarts" have brought his reputation to its peak.
Almost no one in Hogwarts knows his name - although this has attracted the prying eyes of pure-blood die-hards and people from the Ghost Society, but a tree that is as beautiful as a tree will be destroyed by the wind. From this perspective , the appearance of these enemies also shows that Schelling's achievements are not. Harry in the original book did not receive such treatment. It is estimated that they did not take the savior seriously at all. In their view, Hermione, who had the determination to reform, was probably more threatening.
So the time came to the week before the Easter holiday.
On this day, after Hagrid's Care of Magical Creatures class outdoors, a group of Slytherin snakes had no classes, so they were having fun on the grass on their way back to the castle.
Among the Gryffindor students, the Harry trio stayed to talk to Hagrid - since Black's second invasion, the students' security measures have been more stringent, and Harry and the others can no longer There was no way to sneak out of the castle, so I could only take this moment to talk to Hagrid.
Although Buckbeak did not need to be executed because he was abducted by Schelling, Hagrid still felt very sad that his mistake had caused trouble to Dumbledore. After Buckbeak disappeared, Madame Chabini was furious and told Hagrid deliberately let Buckbeak go, and Dumbledore stood up to vouch for Hagrid, which also caused a lot of ants.
Voices questioning Dumbledore began to appear in the media, mainly the Daily Prophet, and many articles were published about Dumbledore's deliberate cover-up of Hagrid and his attempt to cover up his unknown recruitment. Then, the past... In the past two years, it has been revealed that the little wizards have not learned anything useful in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class...
Even Dumbledore had to worry about it. What he is most worried about at the moment is that if the parents of the students know that this semester's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is actually a werewolf, that will definitely be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
Indeed, after Lucius was expelled from the school board, the school board was already firmly under Dumbledore's control, but under the huge pressure of public opinion, everything may change.
And Fudge couldn't give him much support. Fudge himself has been under a lot of pressure from public opinion recently. Black's two intrusions into Hogwarts have been revealed, and all the parents of the students know it from anonymous letters. After learning about this incident, even the Daily Prophet, which was controlled by the Ministry of Magic, had to report it truthfully.
Thinking that the safety of their children might be threatened, the people became dissatisfied with the incompetence of the Ministry of Magic; at the same time, the merchants and residents of Hogsmeade Village were even more furious. The existence of dementors had seriously affected the business and life in the village. , the result did not play its due role at all!
The biggest difference between Dumbledore and the Dark Lord is that he does not use force to convince others, but chooses to play within political rules.
This time, Hagrid did not let Buckbeak go, but the other party cleverly connected the hiring of Hagrid with the hiring of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, creating an image of himself as someone who did not know people, and even hired Hagrid. The decision of character also turned into nepotism. It seems that behind Madame Chabini, there is a master who is skilled in manipulating public opinion...
To be fair, Schelling was actually very disapproving of Dumbledore's behavior.
Hagrid is indeed capable of being a good professor of magical creatures, but this does not mean that he is the best candidate to teach this course. Schelling is not opposed to giving Hagrid a chance, but the premise is that this opportunity must be Hagrid fought for it fairly, that is, he stood out from a crowd of applicants, instead of being manipulated in a black box like Dumbledore and relying on nepotism. Even the recruitment process was omitted and he was directly promoted internally.
As for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, it was even worse. Whether he hired Quirrell in the first year or Lockhart in the second year, it was inseparable from his plan to develop Harry.
This is actually a kind of irresponsibility to other students! Hogwarts is the only wizarding school in the UK, not Dumbledore's family business!
What? You said that's because the Defense Against the Dark Arts class can't recruit anyone? So what about Lupine and Crazy Eyes Moody? What were they doing in the early years?
Back to Hagrid. During this period of time, both Hagrid and Dumbledore have been under considerable pressure from public opinion. The sensitive Hagrid couldn't help but cry as he spoke. Then he turned around, hid his face in his handkerchief, and walked quickly toward his cabin.
Draco preferred death over death. Draco couldn't change his bad habit of talking bad words. He mocked Hagrid in front of everyone, "Look at his crying look! Have you ever seen such a pitiful guy? He is still ours." Where is the teacher!"
Both Harry and Ron angrily charged at Draco, but Hermione was faster than them all - Snap! She slapped Draco as hard as she could. "How dare you call Hagrid a wretch, you dirty—evil—"
Draco's face was filled with heat. The pain on his face and the shame in his heart instantly reminded him of some unbearable memories.
This was the second time he was humiliated at Hogwarts. The first time, he was beaten severely by Ron because of his size. Fortunately, few people saw his embarrassment at the time; Now, he was actually slapped in the face by a Muggle wizard in public!
Anger suddenly filled Draco's heart, and he shouted angrily: "You mudblood, how dare you hit me!"
He quickly pulled out his wand and hit Hermione with a "fire", but his spell did not hit Hermione because Harry issued a disarming spell faster than him. Draco wanted to Dodged Harry's curse and missed.
(Note: The author follows the People's Society's translation of "fire-roasted" to avoid confusing readers. In fact, the curse Furnunculus is a boils curse. The effect is to make the subject's face covered with pus-filled boils. In addition to disfigurement, It’s very painful, and it’s a pretty vicious spell, especially for girls)
Now everything was in chaos. Goyle and Crabbe also pulled out their wands at the same time and shot magic spells at Harry. Ron and Hermione saw that Harry was outnumbered and joined the battle, and there was a slight distance on the grass. Other little snakes further away, led by Pansy and Blaise, also rushed over...
