Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

“I advise you not to do that, I won't be responsible if you break your teeth.” Anduin looked at Hogg's excitement and kindly reminded him, “This tactical vest doesn't amplify your strength. It's more of an auxiliary equipment to help you utilize your magic.”

“Oh? What's it supposed to do then? I don't feel anything different about this little vest.” Hogg snapped back to reality and carefully sensed it, shaking his head.

You were so sure just now that you felt your strength increasing, Anduin thought speechlessly, looking at the somewhat unreliable Hogg in front of him.

“That's because the equipment hasn't been activated yet. Try channeling your magic into the goggles in front of you.” Anduin lowered his head, held Hogg steady, and explained carefully.

“Magic, into the goggles?” Hogg followed Anduin's instructions, mobilized his magic, and tried it. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. “It's working, it's working! A little green light is on in the corner of the goggles.”

“Good, that's the equipment warning device. A green light means the equipment is running well, a yellow light means it's overloaded, and a red light means the equipment is malfunctioning.” Anduin nodded, explaining patiently.

“What's next, Master?” Hogg seemed to have discovered a magical toy and was excited to continue trying.

“First, look at the left side of the goggles,” Anduin pointed to the left side of Hogg's eyes. “There's a row of rune buttons vertically. Each one represents a function of this equipment. I haven't installed many yet. Try these first, and I'll add more modules for you later.”

“Mmm, mmm, mmm.” Hogg nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, signaling Anduin to continue.

“As long as you want to activate the corresponding function, input magic into the different rune buttons. First, the first and second runes are functions installed on the goggles, namely the Tracking Charm and the Echo Charm. Your sense of smell is already very keen, giving you a natural advantage in tracking. Now, with the addition of these two charms, your advantage will surely reach a new level.”

After Anduin finished speaking, he signaled Hogg to try it. The other party followed his instructions and injected magic into the goggles. Soon, a different scene appeared before his eyes.

Hogg's eyes widened instantly, as if he had seen some magical and wonderful scenery. His tongue lolled out, and he started spinning in circles.

It's no wonder, Anduin and Professor Bones were also shocked for a while when they first experienced the Echo Charm.

Hogg paused for a while before ending the charm test under Anduin's reminder.

“How is it?”

“It's amazing, Master! I feel like I could play with this all day!”

“In the future, I will arrange training that can be coordinated with these two charms, such as searching, tracking, digging, identifying, etc. You'll get used to it. Now, you still have to experience the other functions of the equipment.” Anduin looked at the excited Hogg and kindly advised him.

“The next charms are the Disillusionment Charm and the Shield Charm, which can take into account both concealment and protection. These two charms require you to output enough magic in a short period of time, which will be a bit strenuous to use. You can try them.” Anduin smiled.

Having already had one experience, Hogg had already experienced the magic of the equipment Anduin gave him. He quickly mobilized his magic, and then looked at Anduin with surprise. “I can feel this vest drawing magic from my body, and I can roughly sense how much magic is needed, and how much is still lacking.”

“Good, it's normal that it's easier to sense because of the external rune pendants than casting spells yourself. How is it, can you use it?” Anduin took out the recording board that recorded usage data again and looked at Hogg seriously.

“Yes, it's a bit difficult, but as long as I fully input magic, I can activate the charm.” As soon as Hogg finished speaking, Anduin saw the husky in front of him disappear into thin air.

Then Anduin also activated the Echo Charm, and then saw Hogg, after becoming invisible, quietly lowered his body and slowly swayed behind Qiqi. The pads on his paws could eliminate the sound generated during movement, so Qiqi was still staring at the place where Hogg disappeared, without noticing anything unusual.

“Woof!” Hogg suddenly appeared behind Qiqi and howled loudly, scaring Qiqi to jump more than half a meter high on the spot.

“Alright, Hogg, this tactical vest isn't for scaring people.” Anduin shook his head helplessly.

“Woof?” Hogg tilted his head in confusion, shouldn't such an interesting function be used specifically to scare people?

“Alright, since you can activate the Disillusionment Charm, then the Shield Charm should also work, right.” Anduin looked at the husky with a straight face. After receiving its confirmation, he nodded. “Next, let's do a test. You do random displacements with me as the center, activate the Disillusionment Charm and the Shield Charm, and I'll see how long it takes me to hit you in a normal state.”

When Hogg heard this, he quickly nodded, saying it wasn't for playing, but wasn't this about to start playing now.

He casually even lowered his body to hide his figure, and then instantly ran. His speed was very fast, almost turning into a black and white afterimage in Anduin's vision.

Anduin did this mainly to test Hogg's basic reaction and physical fitness. Hogg had been undergoing rehabilitation and recuperation before, so he hadn't arranged any training for him. Now is a good time to do a physical test.

Taking out his wand, after slightly finding the lead, Anduin fired a Stunning Spell, directly in front of Hogg's movement. If he still maintained this speed, he would undoubtedly be hit by the Stunning Spell.

However, after seeing the spell shot out, Hogg immediately made an emergency stop and changed direction, calmly avoiding the spell's attack.

Oh? Looks like the reaction speed isn't slow, then I'll increase the difficulty for you.

Seeing the spell miss, Anduin also became interested, and fired two more Knockback Jinxes, one aimed at the lead, and one blocking Hogg's dead angle of change of direction.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Seeing this, Hogg immediately exerted force with his hind feet, jumping more than one meter high, and easily crossed over the spells fired.

Next, Anduin continued to increase the difficulty, three spells, four spells, and the trajectory speed of the spells shot out became faster and faster, until he used the multi-spell technique, continuously shooting five spells, which hit the high-speed moving husky, but it was defended by the Shield Charm on his body, and he only lost his balance slightly.

“Alright, the test ends here.” After Anduin shouted, he recorded various data about Hogg on the writing board. He was very satisfied with Hogg's performance. With such physical fitness, as long as he is trained, the future is promising.
