Take control of thunder and lightning from Hogwarts

Chapter 291 Test
Just looking at the corresponding description, one might feel that this kind of ceremony is nothing special, but when Anduin saw the case of the Travers ancestor who had been made using this blood, he felt the evil of this kind of magic.

When Ancestor Travers was refining his blood, he used it more as a tattoo, drawing the magic circle directly on himself.

The most successful case was a wizard named Sigurd in the family. He once captured a Norwegian Ridgeback, and then used a large amount of dragon blood and his own blood to draw blood veins all over his body to form a magic circle.

When he completed the magic circle, he used the Imperius Curse to control the Norwegian Ridgeback to tighten the skin of his whole body, and then let the blood out, and he was bathed in the blood of the dragon. The Norwegian Ridgeback finally died of blood loss, and Sigurd In this way, a powerful defense comparable to that of a giant dragon was obtained.

Of course, the ending of this Sigurd is also more dramatic. After he obtained the defensive power comparable to that of a dragon, he went crazy and plundered resources everywhere with his powerful force.

Then he met Gryffindor, one of the founders of Hogwarts. The founder of the Lion House hated evil and loved duels. After seeing Sigurd's evil deeds, he naturally chose to stand up. And challenged Sigurd to a duel.

According to the records in the magic book, the first duel between Gryffindor and Sigurd was actually a draw. Sigurd relied on his strong defense to make it difficult for Gryffindor to break through, but he also Can't beat Gryffindor.

Then both of them chose to retreat temporarily and agreed to a second duel. During the two duels, Gryffindor actually found Sigurd's weakness.

That is, when Sigurd completed the blood refining ceremony, a leaf stuck to his shoulder during the process of bathing in dragon blood, and it became his only weakness.

So in the second duel, Gryffindor seized this weakness and killed Sigurd. Since then, the sword in Gryffindor's hand has the sharpness that can easily pierce the dragon's skin.

In Anduin's opinion, this record is somewhat outrageous, because no matter how you look at it, it looks like a fairy tale in Norse mythology, and it is not known who copied who.

But no matter how much of the content above is true, from the side view, this bloodline refining ceremony is quite powerful.

It's just that the amount of bloodletting is a bit exaggerated. According to all the records, to complete the two steps of this ritual, a large amount of blood must be released from the target. If it was replaced by Tonks, the first step would probably be dead.

"It seems that we need to experiment with other materials first. This magic circle is too old, maybe there is room for improvement, and we also need to test the required blood proficiency." Anduin closed the magic book and decided to find a magical animal first. try.

Then he focused on a Tebo warthog in the park. The Tebo warthog's skin is also very strong. He planned to perform a blood refining ceremony on a piece of ordinary cowhide to see if he could make the cowhide look like Tebo. Warthog skin is as tough.

Moreover, Tebo Warthog has a good physique, a lot of blood, and is relatively durable for experiments. Even if it is accidentally killed in the end, it can still be turned into food.

With a plan in mind, Anduin collected all the auxiliary materials, found a strong Tebo warthog to draw blood and shave, then took a few drops of his own blood and hair, mixed all the materials into a crystal bottle, and found Save it somewhere.

After waiting for a week, when Anduin took out the bottle of mixed liquid, he found that it had indeed become transparent as the record said, just like a bottle of plain water.

But in the process of drawing the magic circle later, something went wrong in the experiment. The volatilization speed of this potion was even exaggerated than in the records. Anduin had just started to draw, and there was only half of the potion left in the crystal bottle. He quickly sealed the bottle cap tightly.

"It's no wonder that the first step consumes a lot of blood. With this speed of volatilization, at least 20 times the standard amount of blood is needed to complete the magic circle. It seems that you have to imagine a way." Looking at this situation, Anduin began to think in his heart stand up.

Finally he came up with an idea, that is to make a device that can be connected to the crystal bottle, which is equivalent to connecting the engraving pen with the bottle cap, then putting the bottle cap on the crystal bottle and turning it upside down, directly using this kind of potion The engraved pen can be used to describe, just like the ink bottle is put on the pen, so as to reduce the waste of medicine.

This kind of operation is quite easy for an alchemist like Anduin. After spending some time, he made a finished product. When he operated it, he found that the effect was not bad. Although the potion would volatilize, it could save a lot of waste , except that it is a bit heavy, it is acceptable.

After drawing the magic circle on the cowhide, he didn't wash it with pig's blood immediately, but took out two alchemy props.

One of the props is like a microscope made of metal, which has the structure of the mirror base, mirror arm, lens barrel, stage and other structures similar to ordinary microscopes, but there is no clear light in the middle of the stage like a normal microscope. The hole is an ordinary flat metal carrier plate.

Another alchemy prop is a magnifying glass, a round lens, connected to a mirror handle.

These two alchemy props are the observation equipment just developed by Anduin. They are actually the same type of equipment, but there is a little difference in strength.

The scope in the shape of a magnifying glass has good penetrability, and can observe the flow of magic power inside other alchemy props through the material, and those spells that are darkly engraved into the alchemy material can also be seen clearly. With it, in the future When Anduin went to the alchemy props store, he could openly observe the spells in the products.

The microscope-like observer will be more effective, and can even penetrate the body of magical creatures to observe the flow of magic power in their bodies. Unfortunately, it can only be observed at present, and there is no way to measure it. Otherwise, the magic power measuring instrument that needs to draw blood can be eliminated. .

Anduin had used it to observe Tonks before, so he judged that Tonks' Disguise Magus belonged to blood magic.

He took the lead in observing the magic circle with a scope. From the lines and the flow of magic power on it, Anduin roughly figured out which parts of the magic circle are the core parts.

Afterwards, he went to the Magical Zoo area of ​​the Forbidden Forest, controlled the Tebo warthog, then stimulated its skin to tighten with electric current, then poured blood on the cowhide, and kept observing the changes in the magic circle with a magnifying glass.

The cowhide the size of a washbasin began to produce a magical reaction after the pig's blood completely covered it. At this time, Anduin tightened the blood, and the magical reaction continued. It seems that this ritual does not require blood to be washed all the time.

Helping Tebo Warthog stop the bleeding, Anduin continued to observe the reaction of the magic circle until the lines on the cowhide completely disappeared, and the state of the cowhide completely changed.
