"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing wrong...』." Malfoy was wearing pajamas, lying comfortably on his little bed, took out his wand, and touched the parchment lightly.
Of course, he had cast a layer of light-absorbing magic around his bed before this, so as to ensure that the fluorescent flashes would not disturb his sleeping roommate.
Almost instantly, thin lines of ink like spider webs immediately began to appear from where the wand had just touched. These lines meet and intersect with each other, extending to every corner of the parchment; then writing begins to appear above the parchment, large curved green characters, they are:
Auxiliary Supplies for Magical Mischief Makers
Moonface Wormtail Padfoot and Prongs Gentlemen
proudly present
Marauder's Map
These writings faded away quickly, and then new writings appeared on the parchment:
Mr. Moonface welcomes the new map owner, and hopes that he can make good use of it and use it in the right way.
Mr. Prongs declares that he is not happy to accept a Slytherin user.
Mr. Padfoot said he didn't mind the identity of the holder, but only hoped that the holder would continue the great business of mischief.
Mr. Wormtail agreed with what they said.
After these words flashed on the top of the parchment, the handwriting completely faded away, and the ink seemed to be dissolved and soaked into the gaps of the Marauder's Map.
Looking at the detailed details of Hogwarts Castle and various venues drawn in black ink on the map, Malfoy can only describe the maker of the Marauder's Map as a genius.
Maybe wizards usually give people the impression that they are templated existences with mortal powers. No one can deeply understand the preciousness of the Marauder's Map. No matter how powerful it is, it is just a map.
However, in every sense of the word, this magic item represents something more than just a map.
To draw an ordinary map, what is the first step
Of course, it is to be familiar with the places that need to be drawn.
Raiders' exploration of Hogwarts has surpassed all past students, three Animagus are nothing short of a tiger for their adventures in Hogwarts, 20th century registered and non-registered anima There were only eleven people in Gus, and they accounted for a small half of them.
No one will doubt for no reason that a mouse or a black dog is an Animagus, just like Muggles will not see anyone on the street and think he is a wizard, which provides them with a lot of opportunities for exploration and adventure Much convenience.
They may not know how many related secret passages they explored in order to help Lupine on the night of the full moon. They found seven of them just passing through Hogsmeade village.
Except for the House of Requirement, which is protected by special magic, and the great lake that is too difficult to explore, the entire Hogwarts castle is drawn in detail on the map, from the court to the Forbidden Forest, from the auditorium to the stairs. , could not be more perfect.
Just for the concept of the map, no one can do better than them, and the landscape lines on it are also very beautiful. The smooth and powerful lines outline the beautiful outline of Hogwarts, and the various intersecting and complicated road sections are also clear. And striving for simplicity reflects a very high aesthetic.
"A tentacle monster." Malfoy sighed slightly, feeling sincere admiration for the maker of the map again.
Not to mention the ability to display people's names on the map.
The Ministry of Magic uses traces to track the location of underage wizards. This is already a huge project. It is impossible for looters to collect the names of all wizards in the world and then create a Marauder's Map.
Then the solution is imminent.
They may have set up a trace-like existence in every inch of the castle. When someone steps in, those trace-like existences will automatically detect it, and then display their names on the map.
This magic might be called a Tracking Charm.
Even so, this is an extremely huge project. Maybe they spend a lot of their spare time on it, except for pranks, so as to ensure that nothing is missed.
"Are you locked up again?" Malfoy suddenly noticed that the two little dots of the Weasley brothers did not appear in their dormitory, but stayed in Filch's small room.
Turning his gaze, he turned his gaze to Ron's bedroom. Unsurprisingly, apart from Harry and his roommates who were still in the hospital, there was a small ink spot marked with tiny letters: "Little Dwarf Peter."
"I've been lying in bed with an old man for many years, it's really disgusting to think about it." Thinking of this, Malfoy felt a chill, and couldn't help feeling a little bit of sympathy for someone.
"You can't be distracted." Malfoy suddenly became alert and reminded himself.
Spying on other people's body is an extremely satisfying behavior. Think about it, you only need to stare at the map with your own eyes, and you can know the movements of anyone in the castle. You only need a little reasoning, and you can Knowing what he wants to do, whether it's going to the classroom or everyone's behavior in the library, you can control it if you want.
This can give you the illusion of being in control.
As long as you want, you can show a mysterious smile in front of a person and say: "Hey, what did you do with Judy sneaking out of the dormitory last night", and then enjoy the surprised eyes of others and the somewhat fearful eyes towards you , to taste the satisfaction that should not belong to me.
If people with bad intentions mastered how to use it, it might really be a disaster.
After straightening his mind, Malfoy concentrated on finding his target—Sirius Black.
"It's too obvious." Looking at a dot of ink that moved extremely quickly, Malfoy showed a faint smile.
He was obviously stuck at the level of the password, so he could only choose to give up and return from the same way in desperation. But on the way back, compared to the swiftness when he came here, Black's speed slowed down. Now there are many Aurors walking back and forth in the corridor from time to time, raising their wands high, releasing the magic spell of fluorescent flashes, and encircling them. , not letting go of any suspicious corners.
What is shown on the map is that there are many small ink dots symbolizing the names of Aurors.
Whenever he and the patrolling personnel could avoid encountering each other, he could always find another unexpected secret passage, turn himself in, and shuttle through the narrow path hidden under the darkness.
Malfoy was just a small black dot running left and right, and finally got out of the range of the Marauder's Map and arrived at Hogsmeade Village.
"You won't be so lucky next time." Malfoy tapped his fingers on the parchment in front of him and murmured in a low voice. (To be continued.)
