Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 593 "Common Apparition Mistakes and How to Avoid them"

  The house was very warm, the house elf lit the firewood in the fireplace ahead of time, and the thick curtains kept the cold out of the house.

   After several people entered the house, the house elf brought them hot tea and desserts. This house elf is not Bit. Obviously, the heirs of the Weddell Smith family will have a house elf loyal to them.

  After Albert sat down, his eyes immediately fell on the booklet on the table. He picked it up and read out the name on the booklet softly: ""Common Mistakes and Avoidance Methods of Apparition"?"

   These booklets are obviously "professional books" prepared for him and Isobel.

"I'm fairly familiar with Wicky Tecrosse. Oh, by the way, Wicky Tecrosse is an employee of the Ministry of Magic's Apparition Testing Center and has been serving as the Apparition tutor at Hogwarts for many years. You will be Deal with him." Mr. Mogg took a sip from his teacup, and explained with a smile: "It takes about three months (February to April) for Hogwarts students to pass the exam after being exposed to Apparition, and there are twelve classes. , If you don’t pass the exam while you are in school, it will be very troublesome to pass the exam later.”

  Albert and Isobel listened to Mr. Mogg's introduction to Apparition, while opening "Common Mistakes of Apparition and How to Avoid It", distractedly reading the contents.

   The first page of "Common Apparition Mistakes and How to Avoid It" describes it like this:

  Apparition is a convenient way to travel, but it also has certain risks. When wizards apparate, they usually make a loud noise, which can easily arouse the suspicion of Muggles. Therefore, instead of apparating blindly, proceed with caution and only apparate when you are sure there are no Muggles around. Using Apparition to travel requires professional training. You must pass the Apparition Examination of the Ministry of Magic and hold an Apparition Certificate to legally use Apparition. Otherwise, it is illegal...

"This is a pamphlet issued by the Ministry of Magic. They will distribute it to you when you are learning Apparition. The content in it is very practical. I suggest you memorize the content in it. It should not be difficult for you." Mr. Mogg seemed to guess what Albert was thinking, and said with a smile: "Well, there are indeed a bunch of guys in the wizarding world who have failed the Apparition test. Of course, even if they have not passed the Apparation test, they can still Apparate."

Having said that, Mr. Mogg shrugged his shoulders and reminded, "Of course, you'd better not be lucky. If you get into trouble because of this, you will have to face a high fine from the Ministry of Magic, and if you get into big trouble, you will also be fined Throw in Azkaban Prison for a while.

   "Common Mistakes of Apparition and How to Avoid It" clearly pointed out that to apparate in the British magical community, one needs to take the test of the Department of Magical Transport first, and only after passing the test and obtaining a permit can Apparation be legalized.

   Of course, not many people take these seriously.

   As for high fines?

  Unlucky, the body was separated, maybe it was over before the Ministry of Magic came to make trouble.

   Well, the reason why the Ministry of Magic requires wizards to have a license to Apparate is actually because they are worried that some wizards will Apparate into Muggle banks and steal the money in them.

   Well, as far as Albert knew, Mr. Mundungus the thief often did this kind of thing, even though he never robbed a Muggle bank.

"Charlie Weasley manifested five miles south of the original target in the first exam, and ended up on top of a poor old lady who was shopping." Albert smiled and told the two A man shares interesting things he knows.

  At that time, Charlie was often laughed at by Fred, George and even the entire Quidditch team.

"This kind of thing is not uncommon, and this kind of thing is not enough practice." Mr. Mogg looked at Albert and said, "Although I don't know how you mastered Apparition, I still recommend practicing more Apparition Get in shape, get used to that feeling."

   "Difficult?" Isobel raised his eyebrows and asked.

"It's very strict. Most of the students need to pass the exam twice, and some even need to come back to take the exam after graduation." Mogg stood up, walked towards the entrance, turned his head and said to the two, "Well, look After we're done, let's start practicing apparition, generally the closer the distance, the easier it is to succeed."

   "Isobel, you need to apparate into the circle from here."

  Speaking, Mr. Mogg took the two of them to an open space outside the wooden house, where there was a wooden circle, which was obviously just put by the house-elf, and there were footprints of the house-elf on the ground.

  Mr. Mogg looked sideways at Albert and said, "You should give Isobel a demonstration first."

"All right!"

  The sound was quickly drowned out by the crackle, and Albert suddenly appeared in the wooden circle.

   It's perfect, there's no separation, it just doesn't seem to fully adapt to the side effects of Apparition, which is why Apparation, although convenient, is not the most popular form of travel in the wizarding world.

   "Practice a few more times, and you'll be able to take the exam." Mr. Mogg nodded in agreement. Although the distance of apparition became more difficult to control, he still believed in Albert's ability.

   "It's your turn!" Albert stood beside Mogg and said to Isobel with a smile.

  Isobel began to spin gracefully on the spot, and then... suddenly lost his balance and fell into the snow.

   "Shut up, don't laugh." She got up in embarrassment, and stared fiercely at Albert, who was holding back the smile at the corner of his mouth.

"You can let Uncle Mog take you to experience Apparition a few times, and then try it yourself. That's how I learned it at the beginning." Albert suggested. He felt that Isobel should experience Apparation first, which would be quick for her. It is beneficial to learn this magic.

   "I will succeed." The girl stretched out her hand to pat off the snowflakes on her body.

  The second attempt was not much better than the first, and the third was just as bad. On the fourth attempt, Isobel finally succeeded.

   Well, half the battle.

   Albert noticed that some of Isobel's red hair was left on the snow, looking very conspicuous.

   "I succeeded." Isobel started to vomit, but was still very excited.

   "No, it's separated." Albert pointed to the hair on the ground and said, "Fortunately, it's just hair."

   "It's not good at all." Isobel noticed that his hair was missing, and he immediately felt depressed.

"It's already very powerful. It's very difficult for ordinary people to achieve success in a short time." Mr. Mogg comforted him casually. gone back.

"Split body is generally insufficient determination, you must always focus on the target, don't panic..." Mogg turned to look at Albert again, "Maybe, you can walk around by yourself, by the way, don't run too far , and don't Apparate to crowded places."

   "No, I'll just stay here with her." Albert didn't plan to leave, which is very likely a rare black history of Isobel.

   "You should take some time to get used to Apparation, remember not to stay too far from Hogsmeade village, or you will get into trouble." Mr. Mogg warned.

   "Go, go." Isobel waved Albert to leave quickly.
