harry potter book of crimes

Despicable Herbo indeed lives up to his "despicable" name.

His magic is ancient magic based on natural phenomena such as ground thorns, hurricanes, and flames. There are endless forms of application. To be honest, these methods alone are enough to make most modern wizards feel desperate.

However, the "duty" of these magics is only to disrupt Maka's immediate judgment. Because his real killing moves are those invisible and intangible soul magics that even Maka can't predict, which is really hard to guard against.

And looking at Maka...

The ultra-low temperature cold current flying all over the sky, the rapid and precise actions, and the invisible sharp blades invisible to the naked eye... What Maka shows are three types of magic with completely different properties, which can be combined in the same battle.

When you look up, it makes people feel the slightest bit inconsistent.

In fact, these three types of magic represent three great eras of wizards:

The invisible magic blade "Shadow's Edge Curse" was a gift given to Maka by Snape, which represents the delicacy and imperfection of modern magic; and the simple application of the compound rule of "swiftness" is what Maka

Cards come from the quasi-magic of ancient assassins and represent a certain interpretation of ancient wizards.

As for the cooling rule runes, they are regular magic that matches the era of Haierbo. It expresses the beauty of the power of nature to a certain limit.

The longer the fight with Maka lasted, the more Haierbo gained from it. In fact, at this stage when the two were fighting each other, Haierbo was no longer in a hurry to end this confrontation that spanned ancient and modern times.

"...Incomplete rule runes, clever combination of concepts, stable and simple application methods," Haierbo's figure kept flashing and changing in the mountains and forests. While avoiding various threats, he couldn't help but admire,

"No, what's more important is the extremely creative form of magic and its practical effects!"

A true wizard will not sneer at any new magical concepts.

Haierbo may not agree with Merlin's vision of the future, but when the real modern curse appeared in front of his eyes, what came out of his mouth were frequent surprises.

He is a dark wizard whose methods may be despicable and his heart may be vicious, but as far as the study of magic itself is concerned, he is extremely enthusiastic and passionate about it like other wizards with noble character.

"Keep going, keep going! I need to see more!"

While Maka continued to move at high speed, she naturally heard Haierbo's words.

In fact, by now, he has determined that he can escape from here at any time.

Although this old guy is indeed powerful, fighting him is like fighting against the raging nature, plus you have to be alert at all times to the intrusions of the soul rules that will pop up unexpectedly. In terms of magic strength, Maka

I have to admit that I definitely can't win.

But if he wants to run away, it's not difficult.

However, just like the old immortal who crawled out from under the Bewitching Monument, he did not want to end the battle so soon.

If the other party was here to observe the intricacies of modern spells, then he was here to learn about the mysteries of ancient magic.

Compared with the stylized development of modern magic spells, the secret of ancient magic basically lies in the understanding of various rules. It would be too laborious for him to figure out the rules and runes by himself. He is not a guy with amazing imagination.

It's impossible to make any progress at all.

Now, every magic spell emitted by Haierbo and every phenomenon caused will outline extremely specific information in Maka's magic induction.

While Haierbo was understanding modern magic spells, Tamaka was also rapidly absorbing the knowledge of ancient magic. It can be said that the two of them have formed an alternative "trading model" in quite a tacit understanding.

As for what new changes will occur after both parties get what they want, that will only be known when the time comes.

So... yes, judging from the current situation, although the two have always maintained a state of fighting each other, they are actually surprisingly harmonious... At least until now, that is true.

But at a certain moment, Maka, who had predicted and arrived at the location directly behind Haierbo's teleportation, suddenly pointed forward to the staff, and a beam of pale green magic light suddenly lit up from the top of the staff.

"Avada Kedavra."

At this moment, Maka's expression was particularly calm.

…

Just when Maka suddenly cast the Death Curse, Luna had already entered Rowena Ravenclaw's secret room under the guidance of the bronze eagle.

This place is still the same as when Maka left for the last time, nothing has changed at all.

In this medium-sized room, except for a desk and a chair, most of the rest of the space is occupied by a giant bookshelf that reaches the ceiling.

There are also slide rails under the bookshelves, so that although there is only enough space between them for one person to come and go, all the books can still be freely accessed without any hindrance.

In the air, the rich and chronological fragrance of paper and ink was once the scent that Maka loved. And since Maka's office also felt this way, Luna couldn't help but feel at this moment,

This place will indeed give her a unique sense of peace of mind.

While Luna was still wandering among the large amount of books, the bronze eagle that landed on the metal shelf on the side of the bookshelf looked at her, and then began to speak again.

"Little girl, um..." it twisted its neck and said, "Actually, if you follow the next process, I should guide you to make a choice, Master Ying. But unfortunately, the last one made a choice here

The candidate hasn't come back yet, so you have to wait and see..."

"The last one?" Luna looked away slightly from the bookshelf and asked softly.

"Yes!" Little Eagle chuckled, "That boy is pretty good. Even Lord Eagle, I have to admit that his abilities are exceptionally outstanding! The last time I saw that boy, I thought Hogwarts was definitely going to

It’s over, but now it seems that the big trouble has been solved?”

As it spoke, it couldn't help but shook its head and said: "You can't be wrong, last time it was definitely the power of that broken mirror... That old guy Salazar also suffered several hidden losses back then! Little girl, you don't know

, that scene last time almost scared me to death——"

Halfway through the words, it suddenly flapped its wings violently.

"Bah, bah, bah! How could I, Mr. Ying, be frightened by such a trivial thing? Well, it was a slip of the tongue... Look at my broken mouth. I have been sleeping for too long and I can't speak properly... Mr. Ying, I

I mean, I was just a little surprised! That’s right, that’s right!”

Like Haierbo who has been trapped underground for thousands of years, the Bronze Eagle is also somewhat talkative.

It can be seen that people who have been lonely for too long will either have a nervous breakdown and forget how to talk, or they will chatter endlessly.

Fortunately, Luna doesn't mind much.

"So, what exactly does the 'candidate' do? Did Rowena Ravenclaw ask you to choose it?"

Seeing Luna ask this, the bronze eagle immediately shook its little head.

"I'm not responsible for selecting people, Lord Eagle, that's not my strong suit," it quacked. "The person who chose the people was Godric's stinky hat - although I don't want to admit it at all, Lord Eagle, but that's

This guy still has a good eye for others!"

"Are you talking about the Sorting Hat?" Luna tilted her head and said in a daze, "It doesn't have eyes."

After hearing this, the Bronze Eagle immediately burst into laughter.

"Quack, quack, quack, that's right! That girl is a big blind, purebred!" it said cheerfully, "Look! I'm different, Lord Eagle - look at my big, bright eyes.

!”

At this point, its laughter stopped, and then it suddenly looked at Luna up and down again.

"Speaking of sorting..." it said doubtfully, "Little girl, you were sorted into Rowena's academy? It's strange. Could it be that you, like that boy Albus back then, also sneaked into Sarah's academy?

Check the old guy’s secret room?”

"Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets?" Luna blinked, her long eyelashes flickering slightly, "I don't think I've ever been there..."

"Huh?" The bronze eagle suddenly wondered, "Logically speaking, the only ones who can come here are little badgers... Although it is often impossible to rule out those who find other ways like Albus..."

As it spoke, it flapped its wings and flew up, carefully circling Luna a few times, as if it wanted to find something from Luna.

"Huh?"

It seemed that he could not find it everywhere, and the bronze eagle was immediately startled.

"What's going on? Where's the thing that woke me up just now? Where did you hide it?"

"what?"

Luna looked at the little eagles flying around her with a confused look on her face, not knowing what to say.

"Of course it's a token!" the bronze eagle yelled, "Didn't you bring Salazar's token? How could it be possible... Nothing big happened that destroyed the castle just now. How did I do it, Lord Eagle?"

Awake?"

After hearing this, Luna couldn't help but think about it for a while, and suddenly showed a look of surprise.

"Is the token you are talking about an Irish female ghost?" She seemed to suddenly become interested and said with a little excitement, "Does Slytherin like adopted female ghosts? The kind that glows green -"

Obviously, she quickly recalled the moment when she met the little wizard in front of the common room. At that time, she also guessed that the other party must have hidden the Irish ghost in his back pocket. Because she clearly remembered that the Irish ghost was

Ghosts will emit a faint green glow in dark places.

"Female ghost?" The bronze eagle said with its beak, "That old guy seems to like cultivating inferi. I've never heard of female ghosts... No, no, no, now is not the time to talk about this! Little girl, you

Is there any token of Salazar? If Rowena knew that I let in the unrelated persons, then things would be very serious..."

Speaking of this, Xiaoying suddenly became startled.

"Ah, by the way... Speaking of which, Rowena is gone a long time ago..."
