Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 538 Tracking and Countermeasures

   The task reward of "Magic Forbidden Zone" is the level of a certain skill +1, which means that the higher the level of the skill, the more valuable the reward will be.

  Currently, the highest level of Albert's skills is level 5 wizard blood. The second highest is Occlumency at level 4, and the rest of the skills are only at level 3, 2 or 1.

After serious consideration for three seconds, Albert finally received the reward of the task and raised the blood of the wizard to level six. Although the improvement of the blood has little significance for his own strength, Albert still gave the skills upgraded.

  Maybe, the blood of the wizard can be passed on to his offspring?

  Of course, it also has something to do with Albert wanting to see where the level limit of the skill is!

  The answer is... grade six.

   Well, the wizard blood on the skill panel directly becomes max.

  To be honest, the experience needed to upgrade the panel skills is actually very poor.

  The further you go to the back, the higher the experience required, and the more difficult it is to use skills to gain experience.

You only need 100 experience points to upgrade to level 1; 2000 experience points to continue to upgrade to level 2; 10000 experience points to continue to upgrade to level 3; 50000 experience points to continue to upgrade to level 4; 200000 experience points to continue to upgrade to level 5 .

  As for level 6, Albert doesn't know. He only knows that his experience pool has 65,300 experience points, which is enough to directly upgrade a certain skill to level 4, but that's all.

  Even in the near future, it is doomed to be unlikely to master too many third-level skills.

   Albert pulled out his wand and cast an obstacle spell on the battle doll in front of him. The doll flew out as if hit by a truck, and hit a far wall with a loud bang.

   "The spell is more powerful."

  The wizard bloodline has been upgraded to the full level, and the overall effect is still very good.

  If we say that it is gratifying, it is probably that the threshold for learning silent spells and casting spells without wands has become lower.

   There is a reason why pureblood wizards pursue magical powers, those wizards with stronger magical powers, in the same situation, learn most spells more easily than others.

   "Next, there is the issue of the basilisk." Albert put away his wand, and began to think about how to use the basilisk incident to gain another wave of experience.

   Basilisks still make Albert more afraid.

  He wanted to use the basilisk incident to get another special contribution award. Then, with the help of next year's Black incident, the "three things have happened" will be completely completed.

  Among the many panel tasks, "Three things have happened" is probably the most valuable task among all tasks, "Obtain a designated level 3 skill."

It means that Albert can let himself learn to make the Sorcerer's Stone; or skip the complicated process and quickly master the transformation of Animagus; even master the super dangerous and unstable spell such as the hour reversal spell, time conversion There is no need to worry about the manufacture of the device.

  Although Albert did not know when Ginny Weasley would open the Chamber of Secrets to encounter the Basilisk, the first attack was on Halloween.

   It is actually very simple to know the whereabouts of Ginny Weasley, that is through the Marauder's Map, but it is very troublesome to find someone through the Marauder's Map.

  He intends to use Tracking Charm, Tracking Charm and People Tracking Charm to make a simple map, specially used to track the location of Ginny Weasley.

   It's just that Albert will not use the Human Footprinting Curse yet.

   After much consideration, Albert decided to ask Professor Flitwick for advice on this spell. The relationship between the two parties was not bad, and the possibility of the other party teaching him was quite high. A good relationship with professors would always bring some benefits.

  Albert went directly to Professor Flitwick's office, and happened to meet Lockhart who was "gifted" out by Professor Spells on the way.

   "Good evening, Professor Lockhart." Albert greeted Lockhart with a smile.

   "Good evening, Mr. Anderson. Is there anything you want to see Professor Flitwick now? Maybe I can help you solve it!"

  However, as soon as Lockhart spoke, he began to regret why he had spoken too much.

   "It's like this. When I was in the United States last time, I read a spell called the Human Tracking Charm in the spell book of the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, so I wanted to ask Professor Flitwick for advice."

   "Humanization Curse?" Lockhart pretended to think and said, "It's a pity that I don't have much research on human footprinting spells. Professor Flitwick is in his office. Maybe he can answer your question."

   After speaking, Lockhart walked away quickly.

  Looking at the back of Lockhart leaving, Albert was a little disappointed. He thought that the other party would say something like "I need to teach you".

  After Lockhart left, Albert turned around and walked to the spell office, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

  The door opened quickly, and Professor Flitwick seemed relieved to see it was Albert.

   "Mr. Anderson, what can you do for me?" Professor Charms smiled and invited Albert into the room.

"Is such that…"

   Albert simply made up a story, saying that when he went to the United States during the summer vacation, he found the Human Footprinting Charm in an American spell textbook, so he came to ask Professor Flitwick about the Human Footprinting Charm.

   "Is it the charm textbooks from the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the United States?" Professor Flitwick seemed very interested in the charm textbooks from the United States.

   "The spelling textbook of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is called "Chadwick's Magic Power." Albert explained: "It is somewhat different from the "Standard Spells" we are learning now."

   "I don't know if it can be obtained in China. If not, I'm afraid I can only use other channels." Professor Flitwick murmured.

   "Professor Flitwick, I have a set if you need it."

"That's really great, about a week is enough. Oh, I almost forgot, the human footprint curse!" Professor Flitwick took out a piece of parchment, drew a simple map on it, and then demonstrated it to Albert The casting process of the human trace spell.

  After casting the spell, on the parchment, there were more footprints marking the names of the two.

"This is the Human Tracking Charm." Professor Flitwick explained, "This kind of spell is usually used in conjunction with a map. The location of everyone within the map range will be displayed on the map in the form of ink dots, and as everyone The location moves and changes continuously.”

   "The larger the scope of the human trace spell, the more people will appear, and the higher the requirements for the spell."

  Professor Flitwick taught Albert the incantation and swinging movement of the Human Tracking Charm, and let Albert try it himself. This spell is very difficult, and it takes a lot of effort to learn it.

  However, Professor Flitwick was shocked to find that it didn't take much time for Albert to initially master the Human Tracking Charm.

   "Although I don't know what you want to do, I hope you don't randomly put other people's information around. I don't think you should do that either." Professor Flitwick reminded.

"I just want to use this spell to lock my cat." Albert explained casually, "It's called Tom, and it's just a very ordinary Muggle pet cat, not smart. Last time, it came from my dormitory After I ran out, I almost lost it, and I was so scared that I dare not bring it to school now. If I can master this spell, I can find Tom's location in the first place."

  Professor Flitwick looked at Albert and reminded: "If you want to lock a cat alone, I'm afraid you need to practice spells harder to achieve precise control. Are there any other problems?"

   "Does the Human Tracking Curse have a counter-curse?" Albert asked after thinking for a while, "Is there any way to block the Human Tracking Curse?"

   "This..." Professor Flitwick said, "It should be no problem to use a shielding spell. A powerful enough shielding spell can well conceal the existence of wizards and wizards and make them untraceable spells."

  Professor Flitwick personally demonstrated to Albert how to use the shielding spell to block the human presence spell. After Professor Flitwick used the shielding spell on himself, only Albert's footprints remained on the map.

   Albert was silent. He had tried the shielding spell but failed. Now he tried again, looking at the footprints on the map, still failed.

   "Your shielding spell isn't strong enough," Professor Flitwick explained.

   "Is it involved in the advanced use of shielding spells?" Albert raised his eyebrows involuntarily. "Professor Flitwick, can you teach me the advanced use of shielding spells?"

   "Do you want to learn the advanced use of the shielding spell?" Professor Flitwick raised his eyebrows slightly.

   "I heard that the Ministry of Magic uses traces on students."

   "You want to block Lost Silk?" Professor Flitwick looked at Albert in surprise, then shook his head and said, "Even a powerful shielding spell may not be able to block Lost Silk."

"Why?"

   Albert couldn't help asking his doubts.

"Zusi is a kind of contract magic improved based on various spells such as tracking spell, human tracking spell, and tracking spell. It is not so easy to be blocked." Professor Flitwick recalled, "The Ministry of Magic is designing this spell. At that time, I thought about this issue. At the beginning, Zongsi's prototype was designed to use it to monitor certain wizards, and to know where they are and what spells they use anytime, anywhere."

   "However, Zongsi will also make mistakes and misjudgments."

"It's normal, because Zongsi needs to be used in conjunction with special magic props." Professor Flitwick explained, "But students are not criminals, nor are they suspects, so the Ministry of Magic later changed it to a form of contract to monitor students. Is anyone using magic in the surrounding area."

   "For things like magic contracts, you can find loopholes to bypass, but it is difficult to block or crack."

In the end, Albert got his wish and asked Professor Flitwick to teach him how to master the advanced use of the shielding spell, but the advanced use of the spell cannot be mastered in a short while, as teaching Albert how to master the advanced use of the shielding spell, Flitwick After Professor Li Wei asked Albert to learn the advanced use of the shielding spell, he needed to publish a related paper on the shielding spell in "Spell Innovation".
