"I'm afraid we can only walk back..."
Ani briefly introduced Fox's situation to Hermione. He must now help Phoenix soothe the restless magic in his body.
In Fox's state, Nirvana will begin directly after the connection with Aini is interrupted.
And every time he persists for a while, the greater the benefits Fox will receive after Nirvana, Aini naturally wants to do his best.
"It doesn't matter, it's good to take a walk." Hermione didn't care, it was good to take a walk. If she didn't have to go back to check on Harry...
Seeing that the little witch's eyes were a little wandering after she finished speaking, Aini stretched out his right hand and waved it in front of her.
"Ah!" Hermione was startled when she came back to her senses, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the way she came.
"Why did you suddenly lose your focus?" Aini was a little confused. Didn't he realize that the girl had a naturally stupid attribute?
"Huh?" Hermione's head was spinning rapidly. She "should" have been distracted by something just now.
"I'm just a little surprised by the space barrier you just mentioned."
I believe you, Ani secretly complained, how many minutes after you finished speaking, did you start to marvel again? The monster's nerves are not that long.
However, Aini didn't mean to get to the bottom of it. He just asked casually. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, he simply continued what Hermione said.
"The wizarding world was not always as peaceful as it is now. In turbulent times, even the most basic safety cannot be guaranteed without means of isolating space."
"In addition to the Phoenix, are there other creatures that can break through the space barrier of Hogwarts?" The unknown knowledge immediately aroused the curiosity of Hermione, the top student.
"I don't know either. After all, the world is too big. In addition to the known, there are more unknowns. We need to continue to explore and verify."
Ani said hello to Tom, Lulu and the unicorns in the distance, indicating that he would be back soon.
"This is the first time I've seen them come here to get tired of you." The little witch looked at Tom with hot eyes, she really wanted to suck the cat, but unfortunately it was a little far away.
"Fox's current aura is too strong and unstable. Animals' perceptions are much more sensitive than humans. It will be very uncomfortable to get close."
'Still scared. 'Ani added silently in his mind, and then continued: "But except for Fox, there is no record of the space barrier being forcibly breached in Hogwarts."
"But I heard that senior students can apparate in the castle when they take the apparation license." The little witch asked, thinking of some of the news she had heard before.
"Being able to apparate does not mean that you can break through the spatial barrier. Principal Dumbledore can control the spatial barrier and open access to certain areas to specific groups."
Seeing Hermione's confused expression, Ani continued talking without waiting for her to ask questions.
"Although the principal has the authority to control the spatial barrier, it cannot be precise enough to target a specific individual. Instead, it can exempt certain types of qualifying creatures from the barrier."
"For example, in order to facilitate cleaning and other tasks, the house elves in Hogwarts can also move spatially in the castle. The entry established by Dumbledore exempts those of goblin blood and those with servitude contracts. Space constraints.”
"But what if a bad elf sneaks in? Or a bad wizard instructs the elves to come in and cause destruction?" The little witch was a little confused about this and felt that after listening to Aini's explanation, Hogwarts became less safe. Feeling.
After all, she was involved in the Dark Lord's invasion just yesterday.
"The servitude contract has very clear terms. These defeated people can only harm wizards under certain circumstances. For example, someone invades the mansion where they are located. If they violate it, they will be subject to terrible punishments, and the defense methods of Hogwarts It’s not just a spatial barrier.”
What Aini did not disclose is that when those who meet the permissions are teleported into the barrier range, although they will not be blocked, using the permissions is tantamount to voluntarily signing a contract.
Once the line is crossed within the barrier...
hehe.
Seeing Ani smiling without saying a word, Hermione suddenly felt uncomfortable in her heart.
"Ani, will you be busy this summer?"
"Probably, but if everything goes well, I can still have some free time." Aini calculated the rough itinerary for the summer. If it goes quickly, half a month will be enough. If it goes slowly, the vacation may not be enough.
Hearing this, the little witch raised the manuscript she was holding and looked at him pitifully with her big eyes flickering.
"Watch the road and be careful with sprained feet." Ani patted Hermione's shaggy little head. "After I finish writing part of it, I will send it to you by owl, or let Lulu send it to you."
"Lulu? She won't get lost, right?" Hermione thought of the cute and cute look of the little bird and snake pecking at her hand. Is it really okay for Lulu to travel a long distance to deliver the letter?
"No, Bird Snake has part of the feathered serpent's bloodline. Although it cannot travel through space like Fox, it has a very keen sense of space and will not get lost."
As he spoke, Aini took out an unknown animal skin from his pocket and spread it out in front of Hermione.
The little witch came up and took a look. It turned out to be a world map.
"If you use Lulu to send a letter, you need your home address. Birds and snakes know the way, but they have to get close to a certain range before they can sense your breath."
Ani pointed at the small dot representing London with her wand, and Hermione saw London rapidly expanding from one point, squeezing out all the other landmarks on the hide, leaving only a thumbnail of the city.
"Just point with your finger...Okay, I will remember to send the manuscript to you." Aini put away the map, and the two of them continued to walk forward.
"I won't go out this summer, you can send it at any time." Hermione decided not to go out with her parents this summer, but to stay at home and wait for Ani's manuscript.
"Aren't you going to travel?" Ani knew that Hermione's parents were both dentists and from a high-income family. As a British person who likes to travel, shouldn't he take his daughter out to play during the summer vacation?
"My parents will go, but I have already been to Spain twice. They still want to go there this year, but I am too lazy to go." Hermione said pretending to be calm. Although the main reason was to wait for Aini's manuscript, every day Every time I go out, my parents will show off my face. The little witch is indeed quite satisfied.
"If they leave, will you be alone at home?" Aini remembered reading a report in his previous life. More than ten years later, girls continued to be murdered in southwest London. The youngest was only 13 years old.
The security here is not as good as many people imagine. It is still dangerous for Hermione to stay at home alone, even if she is a wizard.
"It doesn't matter, I can take care of myself." Hermione didn't care about this. Western children are indeed more independent.
"Keep this close to your body. If you are alone at home, don't take it off when taking a shower." Ani pulled out a talisman from his collar and handed it to Hermione.
The little witch was stunned for a moment and subconsciously refused.
But somehow she reached out and took it by accident. Hermione's face turned red and she put the amulet and the manuscript into her pocket.
"oops."
Suddenly the girl let out a scream and fell forward.
