Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 29: Phantom spell

Views:

The Gryffindor common room was packed with students in the afternoon, all sitting on the sofas chatting.

There were limited seats on the sofas in the common room, and with so many people, it was crowded and noisy. Albert had no intention of staying in the common room. He posted the first-year class schedule on the bulletin board, put his camera and photos back in the dormitory, and went directly to the library on the fifth floor of the castle.

There were no other students in the library. That's right, even among Ravenclaw students, few would step into the library before school officially started.

The only person in the library was the administrator, Mrs. Irmapins, who sat alone behind the counter reading quietly.

When Albert walked to the counter, Mrs. Pings looked up, as if she was a little surprised that someone would come to the library at this time.

"Ma'am, excuse me. I'd like to find some books on spells. Do you know which shelf they are on?" Albert asked softly.

In fact, Albert could look for it himself, but there were a lot of books here, and it would be time-consuming, laborious and unpleasant. The fastest way was to ask the librarian directly.

Madam Pince glanced at Albert, raised her hand and pointed to a row of wooden bookshelves and said, "Area C, fifth bookshelf."

Albert looked in the direction of the other person's finger, said thank you, and then walked towards the bookshelf in area C. His sight paused for a moment at the rope leading to the forbidden area, and continued to walk in. In the fifth bookshelf, there were many books about spells.

When Albert stretched out his hand and brushed across the spine of the book, his fingers paused involuntarily because two tasks popped up on his panel.

Reading maniac.

As a book lover, how can you miss the largest magic library in the UK

After reading 100 1-inch thick books,

Reward: Master 3 random magics and upgrade them to level 3.

Current: 0/100

Magic restricted area.

The restricted book section of Hogwarts hides many secrets. As a magic lover, how can you miss it? If you can borrow a few books from it and study them carefully, it will help improve your magic level.

Successfully convince five professors to let you check out five books from the restricted section.

The bonus skill level increases by 1.

Currently: 0/5

By the way, both missions are a bummer!

It is not easy to finish reading a hundred books, and they are one inch thick. Do you want him to finish reading a hundred brick books

It can kill someone by smashing him.

This task cannot be completed in a short time. If I can finish it within three years, I have to thank Merlin for his protection.

The second task is even more difficult. It is not easy to get the borrowing notes for the restricted area from the professors.

Moreover, it was even more difficult to obtain signed notes from five professors separately.

In Albert's image, the easiest one might be Gilderoy Lockhart.

However, the difficulty is high and the rewards are rich. The skill level is increased by 1, which is much more powerful than skill points.

It was not the right time to think about these tasks. Albert cleared his mind and casually pulled out a spell book called "Selected Spells from the Eighteenth Century".

He opened the catalog and counted. There were thirty-three kinds of spells recorded on it. Each one recorded in detail the inventor of the spell, how to use the spell correctly, and the significance of its invention...

After reading the table of contents, Albert lost interest in the book as he did not find the Disillusionment Charm in the table of contents.

Although the other spells are good, they are of no use to Albert at the moment. Learning these spells requires a lot of time and energy, or using up the stored experience pool.

Although there is still a lot of experience in the experience pool, Albert doesn't want to use it.

After putting "Selected Eighteenth Century Spells" back into the bookshelf, Albert took out another book "Achievements in Spells", which was a book introducing spells. Albert found the Disillusionment Charm in it.

Unfortunately, the book does not introduce how to cast the Disillusionment Charm, it only introduces some attempts at spells.

However, based on the information provided above, Albert found relevant records of the Disillusionment Curse in "Selected Spells of the Nineteenth Century".

This is undoubtedly good news.

Albert sat at the desk in the library with "Selected Nineteenth Century Spells", opened the book and read it carefully.

The invention of the Disillusionment spell was inspired by chameleons. The spell can make people blend into the surrounding environment to achieve the effect of invisibility.

It is not easy for a skilled wizard to be discovered when using the Disillusionment Charm, but it is difficult for a poor one to hide the truth from others because the body cannot blend into the surroundings, making people feel inexplicably out of place.

While Albert was concentrating on reading the knowledge about the Disillusionment Charm, his chair was pulled away. He looked up and found that the other person was the Ravenclaw girl he met in the hall that morning.

As if noticing Albert's gaze, the other person looked up, nodded slightly at Albert, and then put his attention back into the book.

"As expected of Ravenclaw." Albert muttered softly, continued reading the precautions of the Disillusionment Charm, and prepared to find a place to practice.

The next thing to do is to find a solution to the Disillusionment Curse.

Although the duration of the Disillusionment Spell is not too long, if you do not know how to break the spell, you may have to wait for the effect of the spell to disappear before you can automatically reveal yourself, which is not a good idea.

There is no relevant record at the end of the spell, but Albert found the Apparition Spell in "The Achievement of Spells".

Albert took the "Selected Nineteenth Century Spells" and went to Madam Pince to go through the book borrowing procedures. He also picked up a stone outside the castle to use as a target for practice. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to use spells that he had not mastered on himself.

Just as Albert was considering where to practice his spells, the Weasley twins and Lee Jordan appeared in the foyer, breathless.

"Where did you go at noon?" Albert asked the three of them.

"Fifth floor, mirror." George ran so hard that he was out of breath and couldn't even speak clearly.

"Where does that passage lead to?" asked Albert.

"Outside the castle, let's go to Hogsmeade village." Fred's face was filled with an excited smile. On their first day at Hogwarts, they actually discovered a secret passage leading out of the school.

Albert raised his eyebrows and said, "So...how many hours did you play in Hogsmeade before coming back?"

"No, that secret passage is very long. We walked there for at least an hour."

"You guys... are awesome!" Albert managed to squeeze out these words. It would be a torture for him to walk for an hour.

After all, as a casual person, why should I go through the trouble of going into the secret passage when I can just sit on the sofa and read a book, and it takes two hours to go there and back

Why do this

"This is my achievement." Albert raised the book in his hand and said, "I borrowed it from the library."

"You found the spell." Fred realized what Albert was referring to.

"Well, I found it." Albert admired Fred's wit. "However, it is a bit difficult to master this spell. If you want to learn it, you must be mentally prepared."
