Ryan was watching a group of ghosts grabbing food at the table regardless of their identity. Hermione walked over from the side.
She held her notebook and said to her, "I gained a lot today. I learned a lot of secrets that I never knew before. For example, when Earl was bragging about his bravery just now, a ghost next to him revealed that he actually accidentally fell during a chase.
He died after his head hit a crossbow arrow on the ground. Sure enough, many historical truths cannot be explored deeply."
Just as Hermione was happily telling her what she had seen today, a growling sound came from her stomach. After hearing the sound, Hermione's face immediately turned red.
Ryan also felt a little hungry at this time, so he went to Nick to say goodbye.
Nick had finished the toast at this time and stood happily on the podium looking at the eating ghosts around the table. When he saw Ryan pulling Hermione over, he bowed solemnly to the two of them and said:
"Thank you for your help. I think today is the happiest day after my death."
"You're welcome, this is not very difficult for me. We have to go upstairs for dinner now, so we need to leave early and say goodbye." Ryan said to Nick.
"Ah, I've been too busy these two days. I forgot to prepare food for you two. I'm so sorry. You go to eat quickly. I think you can still have dessert if you get upstairs now. I've prepared it for you.
The gift will be placed by your bedside tomorrow morning."
After speaking, Nick bowed and sent Ryan and Hermione out of the underground classroom.
Ryan and Hermione hurried through the corridor and climbed the stairs. When they rushed into the auditorium panting and sat down in their seats, sure enough, the main course had been removed and the dessert had just been served.
"It's a pity that you missed the Halloween special apple pie." Ron said vaguely when he saw Ryan and Hermione sitting down and eating caramel apples.
"But I still feel that I gained a lot from attending the gathering of ghosts tonight. I gained a lot of knowledge that can't be found in books." Hermione said as she picked up a piece of pumpkin cake.
"Well, what are the characteristics of the ghosts' gathering?" Harry suddenly asked curiously.
"I think the performance of the headless ghosts of the Headless Horsemen throwing their heads to each other on horses is very interesting, at least I have never seen it before." Ryan said while eating a piece of cake.
"And when it comes to the atmosphere, blue candles, cold temperatures and a room full of ghosts better reflect the characteristics of Halloween in the magical world. But the only problem is that there is nothing suitable for humans to eat." Ryan concluded.
road.
After filling his stomach with desserts, Ryan returned to the dormitory with the troops.
When Ryan woke up the next morning, he found a thick parchment letter on his bedside. After opening the envelope and reading it, Ryan discovered that Nick had asked the house elf to deliver it at night.
At the beginning of the letter, Nick said that he used his private bottle of Firewhiskey to ask Barrow to take Peeves to write this letter, because only Peeves among the ghosts could write the letter. As for not allowing the family to raise children,
The elf wrote because he thought the contents of the letter were inappropriate for the principal to know.
Ryan opened the envelope and took out the letter, and found that Nick had given quite a lot of gifts this time. The letter contained the locations of several secret passages in Hogwarts, and also told Ryan that the Room of Requirement contained hundreds of years of Hogwarts information.
Things that students throw away can be found by looking for a hiding place at the door.
At the end of the letter, he also told Ryan that a ghost told him that he had seen a group of people sneakily carrying several heavy boxes and hiding them near the coastline in southern England nearly two hundred years ago. After that, no one took out these boxes.
.Looking at the size and weight of the box, there is probably a treasure inside.
It seems that we can go treasure hunting during the Christmas vacation, Ryan thought. It seems that the gift from Nick is really rich. I hope that the joy will not be in vain. In short, Ryan has gained a lot from helping this time.
Because he was in a good mood, Ryan watched with great interest the play "Gilderoy vs. the Werewolf" performed by Harry Potter and Gilderoy Lockhart in Lockhart's class today.
To be honest, if Gilderoy was not a wizard, he could find a job in Hollywood. Because Ryan saw that Gilderoy only gave Harry a few words of verbal guidance to recreate the werewolf's style.
Divide.
After all, Gilderoy only asked the real heroes about things through his words. He was able to restore the scene through dry language and show a sense of reality. It must be said that Gilderoy was a genius in this regard.
It's a pity that as a teacher, this kind of teaching is obviously not enough. At least Ryan feels that he can't learn anything in such a class.
So while Lockhart was immersed in the performance, Ryan took out a large pile of parchment and began to deduce the magical heritage of the Viking wizards.
You must know that magic is not just about learning spells. After deducing the basic runes of the spells, the user can try to change these magic spells.
For example, an ordinary wizard can use transfiguration to turn a stone into a statue, or go one step further and transform objects into and out of several items.
But if you were a transfiguration master like Dumbledore, he could use simple transfiguration to deduce extremely complex magic.
For example, in the original book, Dumbledore used water balloons to control Voldemort's magic at the Ministry of Magic, which was actually an extension of the simplest transfiguration technique.
Of course, Ryan is unable to do this at his level. Now he simply breaks down the Viking spell in his hand step by step according to the inheritance in his memory, and then confirms the composition of each part of the spell and the effect of each part in this spell.
Finally making minor changes.
This work is quite troublesome. It requires restoring all elements of a spell, such as spells and actions, to the original magic text, and then analyzing it based on the nature and content of each magic text.
For example, the magic that Ryan is dealing with now is the ancient Viking light spell. This spell is more complicated than the current light spell, but it can make the light point leave the wand and attach to certain objects.
The reason why I chose this spell as the beginning of learning is because it is simple enough and safe enough. Even if it fails, the light will flash like a camera flash or not light up at all. But if it is some complex spell, it will be very dangerous if it fails.
.For example, Luna’s mother died because of this accident.
At the climax of the Gilderoy stage, Ryan finally imitated the inheritance in his memory and understood a variant of this spell: spending three times the magic power to double the glowing time of the spell.
Due to excitement, Ryan accidentally recited a spell. As a result, everyone in the classroom saw a silver-white ball of light flying toward the stage.
"This is terrible, it's too big." Ryan covered his face with his hands.
