This Hogwarts isn't normal.

Lupin introduced the storage room to the students:

"If there is anything broken in the school that cannot be completely repaired, it will be piled up here. Ye Yan"

He picked up a short stick at hand, "Like this oak arrow 79, it is the first flying broom made."

The one that Cedric took away was relatively complete, and the small piece in his hand was more abstract.

You can recognize it at a glance. Either he has rich knowledge of brooms, or he often came here to explore during school.

Lupin briefly talked about the history of this place, and then asked the students to take a look around.

The accumulated debris is not only dirty, but most of them are useless waste.

"Okay, come back!"

The students gathered in front of him.

"Places like this maze always hide invisible dangers.

So who can tell me what kind of dangers we will encounter?"

Hermione quickly raised her hand, "Professor, the environment here is very suitable for setting traps, and it is also the favorite place for some magical creatures to live."

"What are the more common magical creatures?"

She thought for a moment,

"There are Boggarts, ghouls, vixens, red hats..."

Lupin nodded with satisfaction and gave Gryffindor 2 points.

He turned his head and looked behind him where the light was dim, "Yes, as everyone guessed, one of the creatures Hermione just mentioned is hidden here.

So, does anyone want to guess what it is?"

Vincent was the first to raise his hand, "Red hat.

Boggarts are needless to say, ghouls and vixens can be dealt with by bare hands, and they are not dangerous at all.

The remaining types are not difficult, so the closest answer is the red hat of XXXX level.

"Congratulations, Vincent, you guessed it right. "

Red hats are a kind of difficult creatures that look like goblins and live mainly in Northern Europe.

They have a big head and a small body, and are the same size as dwarfs.

They usually lurk in places with blood stains such as castle dungeons and trenches on battlefields, patiently waiting for those who are lost to come.

When night falls, they will try to beat people to death with clubs.

Although there are records of killing wizards, they can be driven away with simple spells.

Lupin's wand lit up with a blue light,

"Red hats themselves are not very aggressive, but they have strong lurking ability, and even adult wizards find it difficult to find them."

His wand pointed to the dark corner that the light ball on the ceiling could not illuminate,

"The range of the revealing spell is too small, and it is too late to find them. "

There are a lot of waste and debris here, which is very suitable for lurking and hiding.

However, Lupin dared to bring students here to take classes, and he must be confident in his ability.

"There are many spells to find red hats. Today I will teach you a more practical one.

Lupin smiled at the students, then looked back at the dark corner where the wand was pointing.

"The trace appears--"

The blue light at the tip of the wand flew over like a drawn arrow.

It seemed to have no substance, and it went straight through a tattered old wardrobe and disappeared.

The door of the wardrobe was glowing, and something inside should be lit up.

"Squeak--" It seemed to be a faint sound of tearing clothes.

Lupin put away the wand and faced the students,

"I have marked one of the red hats. No matter what it wants to do, the tracking spell will expose its whereabouts."

The spell itself is not difficult, mainly because it requires strong control to automatically retrieve and mark objects.

The shabby wardrobe made a clanging sound, and the conspicuous blue light ball came out of it and kept running around, as if looking for a better hiding place.

Invisible enemies are far more dangerous than visible enemies.

As long as the red hat is exposed, it is not even as difficult as ghouls and vixens.

"Does anyone want to try it?"

"Me!" Vincent stood at the front.

Lupin nodded slightly and motioned him to come over.

"The tracking spell can make a specific object glow continuously. If you are not sure whether there is any danger ahead, you can use it to search again..."

After the theory, it is practical.

Vincent raised his wand and chanted the spell: "The trace appears--"

After the blue light shot out, he vaguely felt 4 strange positions.

One of them was running around, it should be the red hat marked by Lupin.

The control power that can shape various alchemical props can easily make the spell turn in mid-air.

It passed through a rusty iron gate and finally disappeared into the darkness.

"Good, Vincent!" Lupin raised his hand and pointed to the light behind the iron gate,

"The second red hat is hidden there, and their danger level is much lower."

There are 4 in total, of course, they must be found.

"Harry, are you willing to try it?"

Lupin's name made Harry a little at a loss.

After being encouraged by Hermione and Ron, he stepped forward, raised his wand and chanted a spell.

The tracking spell made a big circle, then passed through a broken mirror, revealing the location of the third red hat.

"You succeeded!" Ron was even more excited than Harry, "I knew you could do it!"

The last one belonged to Hermione.

Her tracking spell flew to the ceiling, and then passed through a rusty iron frame in a small arc.

"You are all great!" Lupin smiled and gave Gryffindor 6 points.

"Okay, now I'll teach you how to remove the spell."

The marks on their bodies disappeared, and the four red hats quickly hid again.

"Hannah, it's your turn... Justin, come here... Relax, Ernie, you're next..."

Just like yesterday when dealing with the Boggart, the pace of the class is getting faster and faster, and every student has the opportunity to cast the tracking spell.

Of course, there will be failures when there are successes.

But even Neville, who failed seven times, was not discouraged. The eighth time he just marked a red hat that was trying to move.

There were still 5 minutes before the end of the get out of class, and all the students were marked successfully.

Lupin had a bright smile on his face and added 2 points to each of them.

"No homework will be assigned today. Everyone should think carefully about how to defeat the red hats after returning home."

The next Defense Against the Dark Arts class is probably still a practical class, and the content is to face these red hats lurking and waiting for the opportunity to attack.

It is not boring at all, and the students are particularly looking forward to the class next week.

"Of course I have to use the Stunning Spell!" Seamus suddenly pulled out his wand after walking out of the storage room.

"Just wait, I will definitely knock them all over!"

This posture is so realistic that Dean next to him can't help but imitate him.

After joking around, the two agreed to practice in the activity room.

Vincent, who had secretly used the time converter to finish the arithmetic divination class, was surrounded by the little lions as soon as he came back.

The party is no longer important, and they don't want to make a fool of themselves in the practical class.

"No problem, I just have nothing to do on the weekend."

Soon, the badgers and eagles also joined in.
