Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 48 Unlocking Curse

   "How about using that method?" Albert nodded towards the crowd over there.

   "What a solution," Fred muttered. He originally expected Albert to make a reliable proposal.

   "If you do that, Filch will bring him into the office..." Albert glanced at Fred, but didn't finish his sentence.

   "You mean the drawer..." George remembered the confiscated supplies and highly dangerous drawer he saw when Filch brought it to his office last time, and he murmured: "But who attracts the firepower."

   "What are you talking about?" Fred was a little dazed, unable to understand what the two guys were talking about.

   "Drawer, drawer, confiscated materials, highly dangerous." George reminded.

   "That's a good idea." Fred's eyes lit up, he was a little curious about what was there last time.

   "You need to learn the unlocking spell first," Albert reminded.

   "How about you go, we help you attract Filch's attention?" The twins looked at Albert and suggested.

   Albert glanced at the two of them and asked, "Do you still want to learn the unlocking spell?"

   "Study, when do you start?"

   "Go back to the dormitory, there are drawers for you to practice."

   Not long after, Lee Jordan came back with news.

  William, that is, the young man who did a good job, did not escape the confinement. The content was... brushing the chamber pot.

   "Well, it seems that you don't even have to clean the chamber pot." Albert shrugged, reached for his backpack and returned to Gryffindor's dormitory.

  Looking at the Weasley twins who had been flipping through their spell books as soon as they entered the dormitory, Li Jordan was a little puzzled. Are these the twin brothers he knew?

   "Alahoo is open." George took out his wand first, and tried the locked drawer, but it didn't work.

   "Concentrate and pay attention to gestures." Albert sat on the chair, looked at the two practicing spell casting, and moved his eyes to Lee Jordan beside him.

   "What stimulated the two of them?" Lee Jordan asked in a low voice.

"They need to use this spell, so they started to practice." Albert said very vaguely, "Anyway, you have to learn the spell class at the end, and you need to practice it sooner or later. Don't compete with them to master the unlocking spell faster. ?”

   "You are amazing." Li Qiaodan also pulled out his wand and began to join in the practice of unlocking the spell, preparing to compete with the two of them to master the spell faster.

  Albert told them about the problems he encountered when practicing the unlocking spell, and some things to pay attention to.

  However, with the current level of the three of them, it should be temporarily impossible to successfully open the lock.

   Albert picked up "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" and continued to read the parts that he hadn't read.

   "Give up?" Albert asked without raising his head.

   "Give up temporarily, it is impossible to succeed." Li Qiaodan was a little angry, this is impossible to succeed, okay!

  After practicing for half an hour, the lock is still silent, which is really frustrating.

   "I practiced for a long time before I succeeded." Albert reminded, "Spells, gestures and concentration, don't hesitate when casting a spell."

"Forget it, I'd better preview the afternoon class first." Li Qiaodan was a little tired. In fact, the twins also wanted to give up, but after thinking about their plan, they endured it and continued to practice hard, Albert said That's right, I still have to learn in the future anyway, if I don't practice now, I will practice later.

   "Have you finished reading this book?"

"Not yet, I read a few, all of which are about introducing dark creatures and how to defend against them." Albert continued flipping through the book, "In fact, for a Muggle newcomer like me, it's all about getting to know the wizarding world." How many dangerous creatures are there, how to guard against them and protect yourself.

  In human terms, when you encounter a robber, how to escape, prevent, or ask for help, rather than teaching you how to bring down the robber.

  So, the things taught in this book are actually very general, but they have to admit that they are very useful, so Albert said that this is an introductory book.

If you learn this stuff for the whole semester, it’s no wonder that the twins’ protective props are so popular. After learning this book, it’s estimated that you can’t even use the Iron Armor Curse. At least Albert has not introduced about the Iron Armor so far curse the word.

  After practicing all afternoon, the twins still failed to learn the unlocking spell.

   is normal.

   Albert was not surprised.

   "Tell me, when will we be able to master this spell." Fred looked a little annoyed.

   "Practice for a day or two!" Albert said without hesitation, "Any spell requires magical power as the foundation, and you who barely know a few spells are not as good as me in this regard, so...it will be a bit difficult to learn." When I first came into contact with magic, I also encountered a similar situation. Later, I mastered more magic, and the speed of learning magic became faster. ""

  The three of them looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a while. Albert's words sounded reasonable, but for some reason, they always felt that the other party was fooling them again.

  Perhaps, the Unlocking Curse is still a bit difficult for you, after all, you haven't even mastered the Lighting Curse.

   Albert grumbled, stabbing the hearts of the three of them inadvertently.

   "Oh, I didn't expect magic to be so difficult to learn." George sighed softly, and lay back on the soft bed.

"Don't even think about it. There are only a few spells recorded in the book "Standard Spells: Elementary". We still need to study this book for a year before we know how difficult it is to learn a spell." Albert couldn't help but dismissed it. Kissing, that's actually true.

   "According to what you're saying, you probably have already learned all the spells in "Standard Spells: Elementary"?" Fred suddenly opened his mouth, realizing the direct gap between the two sides.

   "Almost!" Albert thought for a while and said, "However, what we have learned is only the most superficial use of magic."

   "What is the most superficial use of magic?" All three were a little puzzled.

"It's just playing tricks on the spell." Albert thought about lighting up his wand, then shook it in front of them and explained, "This is the most common usage of our luminous spell, but have you ever thought about making the luminous Can the light of the spell become brighter, or let it escape from the wand, and float in the air according to its own will, or float into the distance?"

   "Is this kind of thing really possible?"

   "I think Professor Flitwick can definitely do it." Albert extinguished the light on the wand, and sighed softly. If he wanted to make a magic lamp, he would at least need to upgrade the Luminous Charm to level 3 or 4 first.

Level 2 skills require 10,000 experience points to upgrade to level 3, and level 4 requires five times the experience of level 3. Albert doesn't want to think about it at all. The poor experience in his experience pool is not enough to upgrade a skill to level 4.
