"We always instruct the little wizards to point at the person or thing being spelled with firm casting gestures!"
Dumbledore took the wand-sized branch from Anton's hand and slowly waved the standard hand gesture, "Split it into pieces!"
This is the cutting curse, the standard pronunciation of the curse spell, and the unspeakable firmness in the pronunciation.
Boom~
The light of the curse lit up, and a big tree in front of him exploded instantly, with pieces flying everywhere.
Dumbledore turned to look at Anton, "Pointing firmly at the object we intend to cast the spell will help us successfully cast the spell."
"but……"
He tapped the end of the branch with his wrinkled fingers, "Remember, since it is not a force of energy, there is no so-called energy impact path, and it does not affect the world from here."
As he spoke, he smiled mysteriously, grabbed the end of the entire branch with the palm of his left hand, and wrapped it in his palm.
"Split into pieces!"
The light of the curse surged again, and just for a moment, the ruins of the big trees behind Dumbledore exploded again.
Leaves, tree trunks, and soil were lifted high, and even formed a shock wave, floating the two wizard robes.
Dumbledore did not look back and spoke calmly, "The curse is released from our hearts. It has no direction. There are only ourselves and the object being cast. There is no so-called concept of space.
"
As he spoke, he threw away the branch and said with a smile, "Someone in the Auror office told me that you used a curse to kill a Muggle on a warship."
"I think if you look at magic from this perspective, you should understand this truth more clearly. There are only the caster and the person being cast, and there is no issue of direction or accuracy."
"If you can figure this out, the spell you cast will not fail to hit the opponent."
Dumbledore spread his hands helplessly, "Modern magic system education is an excellent teaching method, but because it is too particular about universal application, many people use it like a Muggle musket when releasing magic."
"Aim, shoot..." Lao Deng curled his lips, "Some magic schools have even introduced Muggle martial arts methods to teach young wizards to practice avoiding spells and learn various misleading actions to lead the enemy to miscalculate the spells.
The direction of release..."
"I wrote to the principal of the other party to explain the problem of such a stupid approach, and in turn I was laughed at by the other principal, saying that I was jealous of her for being more tolerant of Muggle knowledge?"
Anton's focus was not on this. He asked with some surprise, "On the warship?"
Dumbledore was silent for a moment and nodded, "It was a sleepless night. Aurors from the Ministry of Magic in several countries were dispatched and used the Oblivion Curse on a large area to clean many places."
"The Forgetting Curse..."
Anton smacked his lips and said, "This curse is as important as the Muggle Expelling Curse when dealing with the "Act of Secrecy" matters."
"Yes." Dumbledore bent down and looked for something in the ruins. "We once again suppressed the contradiction and roughly erased it. Although some people don't want to see this, such as Tom, he will now
Well, many civil society organizations have been mobilized to protest against the Ministry of Magic’s abuse of the Oblivion Curse, and it’s now a lively event.”
As he spoke, there was a mocking smile on his face.
"Oh, I found it."
Dumbledore picked up a branch about 5 feet (1.5 meters) long from the ground, and slowly slid his fingers on it. The raised branches and leaves fell off one after another, and the bark dried up quickly and became dull.
smooth.
"Are you trying to make a broomstick?" Anton looked at him curiously.
Dumbledore gently let go of his fingers, letting the stick float in the air, and took a step back with a smile, "Beech wood, the wands made of it like to look for wiser wizards among their peers."
"They are rich in color and extremely precious. They are often coveted by many wizards who like them, but most wizards will be disappointed."
"Beech wood has a playful side and likes to seek excitement and fun. It also has a majestic side, with a broader mind and tolerance for everything."
"What's even more endearing is that beech wood has a certain pursuit of magic, and likes its owner to use it to perform subtle and artistic magic."
"They are often known for their ability to perform magical effects in extremely difficult situations."
Dumbledore waved his palm slightly, and the stick floated in front of Anton, "Look, Tom understands you, and so do I."
He pointed to the end of the wand handle exposed in the pocket of Anton's wizard robe, "In the scene where you fought Tom, I found that you had a little more wildness that was different from before. I think you are no longer the same person you were before.
You, maybe you should consider changing your wand."
Anton stared at the oversized wand in front of him with wide eyes, and smacked his mouth, "Although I have recommended you to read the "Lord of the Rings" series of novels, you don't have to give me such an exaggerated wand.
Gandalf's wand is not for casting spells, it is for knocking people."
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu is available for Android and Apple.]
"Hahaha……"
Dumbledore laughed happily, "No, of course not. The wand has extremely strict production techniques. This is the size that is perceived after following some magical principles. The thing you are looking at now is not a wand."
"I hope you can develop a good relationship with it before making it into a wand body, especially what I just described about understanding the relationship between spiritual magic and the world, and applying it."
Anton caught it, spun it in a circle like Sun Wukong, and stood on the ground, "Then we can make it into the size of a wand first, and then cultivate it. It's not too late to hold such a big one, it doesn't look like a wizard.
Alright?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dumbledore ignored it and just said with a smile, "Practice well, such a big root will not let you use it to point at the object being cursed, and more
To understand the process of releasing magic power from the soul and transforming it into a curse."
"Remember, the light of the magic gushes out from the tip of the wand. This is because you think it needs to be like this, but in fact it doesn't need to be like this."
As he said this, he blinked and said, "This is also a very useful technique for wandless spellcasting practice."
"Wow~" Anton exclaimed and looked at the stick in his hand, "That's okay. I hope I don't like to swing the stick and hit people instead."
Dumbledore smiled and waved, gesturing for Anton to follow him and continue walking in the Forbidden Forest.
"Actually, the so-called wandless casting is also different. It's just that there are too few people studying it, so there are no theories about this aspect."
"The ancient wizards did not have wands. Nowadays, wizards have finally found wands, the best partners for magical wizards, and they have to practice giving up using them. This is a stupid approach in itself."
"So generally we don't consider wandless casting. It's just used to show our mastery of magic spells."
"It's like the Muggles finally developed muskets, chose not to use them, and then went back to use bows and arrows."
Anton followed behind, smiling noncommittally and stroking the wooden stick in his hand distractedly.
Is this thing really suitable to be my new wand?
Earlier, Dumbledore continued to say, "When we are accustomed to using a certain magic and become so skilled that it seems to be a part of ourselves, we can be like magical animals and rely on our own minds to cast spells."
Release it."
Anton nodded, "It's equivalent to having a spell slot."
"Haha, interesting statement."
"Some magic schools do not use wands. The wandless spellcasting they practice is different from... well, spell slots. Their wandless spellcasting is actually another technique. It does not involve combining every magic spell.
It’s impossible to practice everything until you become proficient in it.”
Dumbledore raised his finger and tapped it with his other hand. "It contains the blood of wizards. It is a kind of magical blood more powerful than magical animals, and it can be used with some more complex spells."
Gestures, using fingers, whole hands, or even the whole person as a wand, or spell-casting medium."
"Think of yourself as a medium for casting spells?" Anton shook his head thoughtfully, "Then they must be more susceptible to the erosion of black magic."
"Yes." Dumbledore turned to look at Anton with a strange expression, "Especially African wizards, they are accustomed to using curse magic such as voodoo dolls, and many top spell masters will even become '
evil spirits'."
"Well, from the perspective of our modern magic system, they are transformed into some kind of elves."
"They never understood why this happened..." Dumbledore spread his hands helplessly, "I explained to some magic masters the necessity of cultivating the use of wands from an early age, and how this habit led them to eventually become evil spirits, but there was no
People obey.”
He sighed deeply, "There are many reasons, but the biggest reason is that there are not many wand-making masters, and Europe is also restricting the export of wands. If Africa wants to popularize wands, in addition to the differences in its own magic system, it also has this aspect
The problem."
"Look, the wizarding world actually has a lot of problems."
"It's not just the 'wizard supremacy' that is contradictory between wizards and Muggles, or the 'pure blood supremacy' based on blood. If you really touch the depths of wizard society, you will find that there are too many
Tear apart.”
"Our Ministry of Magic strictly restricts the entry of 'magic flying carpets' into the UK. There has always been a large-scale breeding of magical animals in the United States..."
"If you break these issues apart, you can find some problems that are more serious than blood discrimination."
Dumbledore's face became serious and he stared at Anton, "This is why I have always maintained peace between the Muggle and wizarding worlds. If a war really starts, the wizarding world itself will be torn apart.
"
"At that time, it will not be a war between two ethnic groups!"
"But..."
"A most terrible melee!"
"Every country, every class, every force, whether Muggles or wizards, has its own demands."
Anton grinned, his white teeth shining brightly in the sun, and he smiled brightly, "Sounds exciting."
Dumbledore glanced at him and said, "I know, you listened."
"Don't expect to use some words to influence me. I am firm in my heart, and this has become the basis of my magic." Anton chuckled, "I would rather suggest that you go directly to Azkaban now, and take advantage of the opportunity.
Professor Voldemort is weak and it is most practical to kill him directly."
"Hmm~"
Dumbledore's eyes flickered for a while, "Actually..."
"You have to let them fight for a while to see the effect, right?"
His tone was a little uncertain, as if he was full of expectations for something.
