Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 294 Leaked

  In the corridor on the eighth floor of the castle, in the wall opposite to the tapestry where the troll beat Barnabas silly with a stick, there was a faint sound of painful groans. After a while, a door appeared on the wall, and Albert and his roommates pushed the door and walked out.

   "Next time, if you want to beat Albert, don't call me."

  In the corridor, Fred was rubbing his wrists with his hands, and couldn't help complaining to his companions that the three of them were easily let go by Albert.

   "I told you earlier that I have practiced before. Even an adult may not be able to beat me with bare hands." Albert patted Fred on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile.

  He said in his heart, my skills are not vegetarian, and it is not a problem for him to knock down one or two adults now.

   "What are you practicing this for?"

   "Of course it is to protect yourself." Albert's tone was very natural, "Only if the fist is hard enough, will you not be bullied!"

  The three of them suddenly felt that Albert's words made sense.

   Having said that, in Hogwarts, there are really few people who dare to trouble Albert. Looking at the group of unlucky people in Slytherin last year, many of them ended up with their heads stuffed into the toilet.

   "Is the Muggle world dangerous?"

   "It's safer than the magic world, but there will always be some unscrupulous guys, just like who shouted to beat me just now." Albert said with a malicious smile on his face.

   "Who yelled just now." Lee Jordan asked.

   "It's you, bastard!" Fred and George said in unison

   "Is there any? Why don't I remember!" Lee Jordan quickly pretended to be stupid.

   "Do you want us to recall it for you?" Fred and George approached Lee Jordan.

   "No, I've already remembered it." Lee Jordan muttered in a low voice, which drew smug laughter from Fred and George.

   "Wizards are not Muggles, why use fists to solve problems and oppose violence!"

   "If you don't have a wand, what's the difference between you and a Muggle!" Albert curled his lips and reminded, "You can't guarantee that the wand will always be in your hand?"

   "Isn't there still magic without a wand?" Lee Jordan quibbled.

   "Do you know how to use it?" Albert asked back.

   "No, what about you?"

   "Wandless magic is difficult. I won't try to practice until the magic power is completely stable." Albert never thought about mastering wandless magic now.

  Wandless magic You can cast spells without a wand, but there are also a lot of problems.

  Because without the blessing of a magic wand, it is difficult to precisely control the magic. It usually takes a lot of time to practice. Moreover, the power of the spells used will be weak. Usually, you can only use less difficult magic without a wand, such as fluorescent flashes...

   "Even without a wand, wizards usually instinctively use magic to protect themselves when encountering danger, such as when falling from a high altitude..." Lee Jordan continued to argue.

"Don't be stupid, I can guarantee that if you fall from the top of the castle, even if you have a wand in your hand, you will definitely fall into a pile of meat." Albert couldn't help but turned towards Lee Jordan Roll eyes.

  The magic in this world always feels a bit wonderful.

  Most wizards only rely on wands to fight. Magic items are basically invisible, and wizards don't rely on them. During combat, ordinary spells can be restrained, interrupted, or dispelled by chanting. Dangerous spells can only be dodged by nerve reflexes.

  To be honest, Albert has always felt that Felicia is quite reliable. At least, in battle, it is not easy to be hit by the enemy's spells, which can effectively protect your own safety.

  Of course, the effect on powerful wizards is estimated to be small.

  As for what Lee Jordan said about instinctively using magic to protect himself, it is even more unreliable. To put it bluntly, wizards use magic unconsciously in emergency situations, which is the so-called dog jumping over the wall. In this case, the magic has lost control, similar to wandless magic. However, no matter the power or effect, it is far inferior to using a magic wand to cast a spell.

  If this thing is really that effective, what do wizards need wands for?

   "What if you fell off the castle?" Fred asked back.

   "I usually don't kill myself and jump off a building." Albert continued, "Of course, if you fall from a height, you just need to cast a shock absorbing spell on yourself. I remember Charlie once said."

"Have it?"

   "When I first went to the Quidditch pitch, Charlie kept watching, afraid that you would fall off the broom."

   "Well, your memory is better than ours." Fred couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Of course they still remembered, but they couldn't remember it for a while without Albert reminding them.

"By the way, there is something." Lee Jordan changed the topic, "Professor Smith seems to know that you broke into the Forbidden Forest last year to rescue Fred and George. relation."

   "Oh!" Albert raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Did he say anything?"

   "He asked Fred and George if they had encountered an acromantula in the Forbidden Forest, and I told him he didn't know." Lee Jordan shook his head. "Later...Professor Smith lamented that you also have hot-headed moments."

   "Hot-headed?" Albert's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but correct him: "I prefer you to use courage to describe it."

   "I also think it is more appropriate to use courage."

   "Professor Smith is trying to trick the acromantia?" Fred interrupted suddenly, "After all, the eggs and venom of those big guys are quite valuable."

   "Perhaps, he intends to take revenge on those big spiders." George guessed, "Don't forget, he was attacked by an acromantula."

   "Don't be stupid, you can believe that kind of nonsense, I was with them at that time, and we were never attacked by acromantula at all." Albert couldn't help complaining. He spoke quickly, and by the time he realized it, it was already too late.

   "You lied to us again." Fred also reacted, and glared at Albert with dissatisfaction. They actually believed his nonsense last time.

   "Ahem, I promised Dumbledore and Hagrid to keep it a secret." Albert didn't expect that he would slip up, and he explained in a low voice after making sure that there was no one around.

  However, Professor Smith asked Lee Jordan what to do with this matter?

   Could it be that he is interested in Gryffindor's treasure?

   "What is a monster?"

"Hagrid's pet, remember the pet called Lu Wei last time? It was a dangerous magical creature. Hagrid kept him in the Forbidden Forest. Then Lu Wei ran away by himself... I can't Say, I promised." Albert noticed the distrustful eyes of several people, and he spread his hands helplessly: "I really promised, and it's useless if you know, Dumbledore should have sent it back to Greece gone."

  Albert naturally knew that Lu Wei was still hiding somewhere in the Forbidden Forest.

   After all, next semester will be used as a watchdog for the Sorcerer's Stone level.

  The three of Fred knew that they couldn't ask anything else, so they stopped asking. Even if they kept asking, Albert would probably continue to fool them with some unknown things.
