Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 665: Top Skills Instructor

Views:

A good player is always leveling up or on the way to leveling up.

After discovering that his summer vacation had gone wrong, Albert had no choice but to use these words to comfort himself.

Since he moved into the LeMay family's home, every day has been fulfilling.

Mr. Nico is like a skill instructor in the game, always able to provide new knowledge that he has not learned.

If you are in the game, when you open the skill learning list, the number of skills will make you dizzy and you will never see the end.

Fortunately, Albert is a man with a skill panel, otherwise he doubts that even if he works tirelessly for ten years, he will not be able to empty all the knowledge in Nicolas Flamel's mind.

The feeling of not having to worry about finding skills was so blissful. If he gave up the opportunity that was within his grasp, Albert felt that he would be struck by lightning one day when he went out.

Fortunately, Albert has a plug-in that allows him to use experience to upgrade his skills and improve his learning efficiency. In addition, there are several skills on the panel to assist him, allowing him to directly become a sponge and continuously absorb the knowledge of Professor Nicolas Flamel.

The only problem is that if you sit on the chair for a long time, your butt will feel a little uncomfortable.

Of course, Mr. Nico is already very old, and his body is not suitable for sitting for a long time to give lectures. It would be too exhausting for an old man.

So, for most of the things, Nico only told him the key points, and Albert had to master the rest of the knowledge through reading books.

This method is not friendly, and ordinary people probably won’t understand it.

Albert, however, likes this teaching method very much. For him, as long as he has acquired the skills, other problems are not a problem. When upgrading skills, the panel can naturally help him make up for most of the shortcomings.

Although he might suffer from indigestion for a short period of time, Albert felt that he had a good appetite and could wait until school to slowly digest the knowledge he had learned. He did not expect himself to learn everything in a short period of time.

There is not much time left to follow Mr. Nico and listen to his lectures. I naturally cannot waste such a good opportunity.

In his own words: I want Mr. Nico's knowledge to continue to be passed on. If precious knowledge has no one to inherit it, that would be the greatest sorrow of this era.

Nico did not hold back when teaching Albert, and taught him everything he wanted to learn. After all, he only had a few years left to live, and he was quite satisfied to find an excellent student to inherit his legacy.

After Albert adjusted his mindset, he began to learn happily, and the number of his skills was slowly increasing.

If the panel had a combat power assessment, his combat power was estimated to be increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and this had also consumed a lot of reserves in the experience pool.

Nico was still shocked by Albert's amazing learning speed. He even suspected that Albert was secretly taking Felixir or some magical potion. Otherwise, how could he master everything he taught at such a fast speed.

Or, this is genius.

Just listen a little and you will understand everything.

Nico himself can be considered a genius, but after a brief comparison, the gap is really huge.

As for Isobel, she had long since given up her original plan to study with Albert, and was now learning something from Madame Perenelle, but she was exhausted every day and went to bed early at night.

What disappointed the girl a little was that even the two extraordinary wizards didn't know how to make a potion that could keep people young, or they had never conducted research in this area, but they still gave some suggestions.

While discussing the youth potion, Albert threw out the recipe for the longevity potion he got from "Basic Knowledge of Mandrake".

However, this so-called elixir that could delay aging still shocked Nico. He even suspected that Albert had secretly collected the formula for the elixir and improved it to make the thing in front of him based on that thing.

After all, Albert is also a genius in the field of potions, so it is not surprising that he would do such a thing.

"We have never told anyone else the formula for the elixir of life. Without the Philosopher's Stone as a 'catalyst', the potion brewed with that formula would eventually become a deadly poison." Mr. Nico explained calmly: "The Philosopher's Stone has been completely destroyed, and its birth was more of a luck and accident, and cannot be replicated."

It is not difficult to see that Nico actually doesn't like this topic very much, and Albert also regrets mentioning this matter. He actually hopes that Nico can rely on this potion to live a little longer, but the other party seems to have misunderstood. Albert didn't argue too much and simply chose to shut up.

"Don't be too obsessed with pursuing immortality. There is no real immortality in this world. Just look at us and you will know it." Nico didn't want his students to study this kind of thing. People who desire eternal life can easily go to extremes and do some bad things. A certain Dark Lord is a good example.

From then on, Albert never mentioned that incident again and began to focus his studies on the Fidelius Charm and other powerful and ancient defensive spells. He also asked Nico how to build a safe house that would not be easily discovered by others.

According to Nicol, most so-called ancient spells are considered powerful for two reasons:

The first is that it is old enough that many wizards don't even know it, let alone break the spell. If you want to break it, you can only use brute force, but often you won't get a good result.

The second point is that those spells usually require strong magical power as support, and spells that generally require strong magical power as support are usually very powerful. This is also a common problem of most ancient spells. They are powerful but difficult to master. After all, there are only a very small number of wizards who can spend time on the patronus like Dumbledore and come up with new tricks.

Ancient magic was simpler and more crude, and most wizards preferred powerful spells.

This is also the main reason why pure-blood wizards are pushed aside, because the wizards' own magical power is not strong enough, and they cannot even master some powerful spells. In a magic confrontation, if they cannot use some powerful magic, they will obviously be at a disadvantage.

Most of the ancient spells Nico knew were in Latin. Although they could be used as long as he did not make mistakes when reciting the spells, he needed to master Latin if he wanted to go further.

As far as Albert knew, the ancient magic literature studied at the Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France was taught in Latin.

Nico originally thought that it would take Albert a year or two to master Latin, but he soon discovered that Albert was able to use Latin after just a week.
