Hogwarts Wandering Wizard

The fruits of victory are quite tempting. Almost the whole afternoon, the Gryffindor students remained in a state of excitement, as did the three people in Eric's dormitory. The Weasley brothers were waving in the common room. They were jumping up and down with banners, and Lee Jordan, who stood among them, re-explained the game at that time with great interest. Especially Charlie, who caught the snitch in the end, was directly lifted up by a group of juniors. Among the other players They were constantly being tossed up and down in their evil smiles.

Eric sat in the corner, discussing with Percy about the Disillusionment Curse.

Although it was a bit strange why this talented student wanted to know this curse, as a member of the Transfiguration Club, Percy still generously took out a worn notebook.

"Actually, I haven't fully mastered the Disguise Curse. It is said that it is something that can only be learned in fourth grade or above. However, I have Bill's notebook here, which contains an introduction to the Disguise Curse."

Percy turned to one of the pages and found the record about the Disguise Curse among the dense words, and held it in front of Eric.

Looking at the feelings about the Disguise Curse and the notes on casting the spell recorded in the book, Eric thought carefully for a while and tapped his forehead with his wand.

A feeling like egg liquid being splashed on his face spread from where the wand struck. He felt it carefully, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw Percy's surprised expression in front of him.

"Half of your head just turned into the color of the chair back.",

Percy pointed at his head and shook his head slightly: "It's just that the area is too small, only half a head."

As he spoke, he also took out his wand, tapped it lightly on Spot, the mouse who was resting on his lap, and cast the Disillusionment Charm.

Eric clearly saw that the gray mouse slowly turned black, just like the black robe Percy was wearing. If its belly wasn't still bulging due to breathing, Eric would It's almost impossible to find it.

So, the Disappearance Curse also has an effect on Animagus?

No, the Disillusionment Curse has an effect on wizards. After all, Animagus is just another form of wizards, so it is naturally useful.

Eric touched his chin thoughtfully, and then watched the gray mouse, which had returned to its original form due to the spell's failure, being put into Percy's pocket. He reminded Percy, who was about to leave, "Percy, actually pets have There is also spirituality when you are young, I think it is best not to keep him with you all the time."

Percy glanced at his junior in confusion and said nonchalantly: "Scabbers is just a mouse, he just lived a little longer."

He thought again, raised his finger and corrected Eric: "Besides, animal is it, not he."

Looking at Percy's leaving figure, Eric shrugged indifferently. For now, Wormtail is not a threat at the moment, and getting rid of him rashly will not do him any good. Besides, if he has time, he can The right thing to do is to steal this rat to study the Animagus.

After all, there aren't many wild Animagus out there.

Eric pondered for a while, avoided the other excited students, came to the dormitory, floated a large mirror in the room in front of him, and started training on the Disguise Charm.

After the people in the common room were almost gone in the evening, Eric sat next to the Weasley brothers, drinking their juice from the kitchen, looking at the students leaving, and asked Fred and Fred Said: "How are you two practicing at unlocking?"

George took out a small cloth roll from his pocket, looked at no one around, and spread it out on the coffee table in front of him. Eric took a cursory glance and found that he had developed at least four or five new lock-picking tools. George whispered "I have studied all the locks thoroughly and I can definitely open them in half a minute," he said.

Fred also came over: "I don't know how to open locks. How about I go out tonight and you two go in and look for clues to the treasure map! I asked Jordan, and he said he didn't dare to visit the castle at night, so tonight Let’s go, three of us.”

Eric nodded, took out a neatly folded invisibility cloak from behind, handed it to Fred, thought for a while and took out the Marauder's Map: "You will be guarding with the invisibility cloak on later. If you see someone coming on the map, send a signal."

The Weasley brothers have learned how to flash fluorescent lights under Eric's guidance. Although the light at the tip of the staff is not too bright, it is enough to operate at night.

But when he saw his invisibility cloak, Fred still opened his mouth in surprise: "Oh my god, this is a very new invisibility cloak. Where did you buy it?"

"Professor Seamus lent it to me."

Eric saw the two seniors getting in through the hole and quickly put down the invisibility cloak and map in his hands.

"How could such a good thing happen? I also want someone to give me an invisibility cloak."

Fred muttered enviously, looked at the waving hands of the two people beside him, and climbed out of the Gryffindor Tower with them.

"I solemnly swear that I will not do good deeds."

Eric pointed at the map and recited the spell, and moved together with the Weasley twins. They followed the shortcut depicted on the map and walked down through a seemingly normal wall, avoiding all the portraits and students. Arrived at the second floor.

The library closes earlier on weekends, usually at 08:30 for dinner, so when Eric and the other two arrived, the second floor was already dark.

Using the unlocking spell, the door to the library was opened, and the three of them walked in cautiously.

Leaving Fred to guard against the wind at the gate, Eric and George headed toward the restricted book area and soon found the bookshelf that was locked by more than a dozen chains.

With the light of the wand, George quickly picked the first lock. Just as they expected, the lock, which was filled with countless anti-theft magics, did not sound any alarm after they used Muggle methods to pick it open. .

"It seems that sometimes we need to change our thinking when looking at problems!"

George secretly fiddled with the lock, feeling full of pride in his heart. After all, this was his first actual combat.

One, two... Soon all seven locks were opened by him, and the poisonous magic book in the middle of the bookshelf was also untied and stood in front of them.

George put on a dragonhide glove and reached out his hand.

"Why do I feel like there are countless voices talking in my ears? The echo is so loud."

Just when he was about to touch the book, George suddenly covered his ears, frowned at the book in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "And after this sound got into my ears, my head was a little dizzy. "

Upon seeing this, Eric immediately drew out the poisonous magic and was about to stuff it into the system space. The thick book broke free from his hands and opened to one of the pages. There was a huge roar and a gray-white The parchment floated out from the cracks of the book, swirling and flying in front of Eric.

Clamping the parchment accurately, Eric didn't have time to observe the content on it, so he closed the roaring books lying on the ground and stuffed them into the system backpack. Only then did Eric stop the roar that echoed in the library.

A small ball of fluorescent light flashed from far to near. Fred, holding the Marauder's Map, ran over. Looking at the messy scene here, he asked Eric: "What happened just now? Why is it like this?" Big noise? Did you get the book?"

Seeing George lying on the ground with his ears covered, Fred squatted down to help him up, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him? Why is he sweating?"

"My ears are buzzing."

George held his head in pain, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and the teeth in his mouth made a squeaking sound: "Let's get out of here quickly, I feel so uncomfortable."

Eric waved his wand and reconnected the pried locks to the chains. Just as he was about to fasten them again, the originally quiet books began to roar loudly, constantly shouting "Let me go, let me go." I’m out” shouts.

"Ignore the locks, Eric, Filch is here and we have to go!"

Fred rushed over and grabbed Eric's shoulders, pointed the tip of his glowing staff at Filch who was running quickly from the corridor on the map, and said anxiously: "If you don't leave, it will be too late, Filch." If they catch us, we will probably get out tomorrow.”

Eric glanced at the map and quickly closed all the chains to seal the roaring books. Then he and Fred set up a sweaty George and put on the invisibility cloak.
