Harry Potter: The Dragon That Sleeps

Jody had a pretty peaceful weekend.

...The excessive Slytherin has begun to let Jody describe his daily life as "fairly peaceful".

Fortunately, he has a women's toilet (which is haunted) where he can hide and relax, and he can also go to Hagrid's hut for dinner. During this period, he can catch up on bits and pieces of knowledge about magical animals.

And those brats who have nowhere to vent their energy don't have to use him for entertainment.

Jody felt like a bullied elementary school student.

This situation finally changed qualitatively on Monday afternoon.

The first class on Monday is Herbal Medicine, and then there is the History of Magic, which not many people are interested in.

Professor Binns' voice was still rigid without any fluctuations, and had a strong hypnotic effect.

If it hadn't been for Jodi's flash of inspiration while he was half asleep, he would have almost missed this opportunity to obtain more information.

The content of this class is an extremely important period in the development of magic. During this period, people began to popularize the use of wands. As a spell-casting tool, wands stood out from various tools such as books, crystal balls, magic swords, and giant staffs. They became

It has the most stable spell casting, high magic balance, and superior portability. It has been the darling of the times and continues to this day.

"Sir!" Jody promptly interrupted Professor Binns' seemingly unchanging speed and pace, preventing him from quickly skimming over this paragraph.

The ghost professor only responded when Jodi called him for the third time. He raised his head and looked at Jodi blankly.

"You just mentioned that the wand is recognized as the most stable after being used on a large scale, but do the other utensils have any advantages?"

It seems that this is the first time Professor Binns has been asked this question, because those tools that have been eliminated by history will not be tested at all.

But this did not prevent Professor Binns from quickly rejecting Jodi's wrong idea, "Of course not, of course! You can't have such a wrong idea."

The ghost professor was stunned for a while to recall the long-lasting memories in his head, "Actually, even when Hogwarts first opened, the wand usage rate in the entire wizarding world was not very high.

I am used to using magic books to cast spells. The understanding of magic explained in runes is written on special paper. A magic book can sometimes be passed down for several generations, and it is improved by new members of each generation.

But with the rise of syllabic spellcasting and conjuration, rune spellcasting gradually declined. Not so many people were willing to waste time on ancient runes anymore.

But it is undeniable that runes are the best way to help you ensure the accuracy of spell casting. As long as the magic is engraved in your magic book, there can be no spell casting errors."

Professor Spencer waved his dry palm, and a translucent cloud separated from his body, forming a book and floating ancient characters-runes in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, all the books and words dissipated and merged into a sphere. There was a dense air mass squirming in the ball and shrinking like a heart. "The crystal ball can almost be used as the second mana pool of the mage. It can map your current mana reserves and store them."

It absorbs your extra magic and responds to you when you cast a spell.

You must know that in ancient times, before the world was divided, the habitat space of magical creatures was directly connected to the space where Muggles lived. In that era, we had to face dangers and battles almost every moment. We knew exactly how many more times we could carry out.

Casting spells and having one more chance to cast spells is so important."

"The staff is a direct combination of the crystal ball and runes. It changes the crystal ball from a simple storage device into a conversion tool, used to adjust the user's magic strength..." The fog changed again, and the person was taller.

The staff is inlaid with beautiful gems, and glittering runes are swirling around it.

As the function of the wand was answered, Spencer then introduced wandless casting, skull casting and biological medium casting. Seeing the topic go further and further away...

"Then why are the wands the last ones? I mean why are they replaced?" Jody had to interrupt him again to bring the topic back, and at this time the students in the classroom finally recovered from this rare novelty.

Be energetic.

Professor Spencer was stunned for a long time, and the mist dispersed above his head again and divided into various magic instruments that kept circling. "Each of them has its own advantages, but their shortcomings are also very obvious. The magic book has a strong ability to cast spells."

It has limitations, and the molding cycle is too long. The crystal ball cannot provide stable guidance for casting spells. While the staff increases the magic power, it also brings a load that can easily hurt the novice wizards.

Although the wand cannot reach their height in these aspects, it is at least better than safety, and more importantly..."

Jodi has been trying to find an entry point to quantify the characteristics of magic. Of course, he cannot miss the opportunity to learn more about it at this time. "Then I can understand that the three points of magic strength, total magic power and spell casting accuracy constitute everything about a spell caster.

?"

"No, there is one more important and mysterious characteristic of a spellcaster, which is the unique soul characteristic of a wizard. And this characteristic is the key to the wand standing out!"

Professor Spencer reached out and patted away the discarded tools, and then pinched out a bunch of long fibers and a neat shell from the fog.

"The core of the wand corresponds to the spirit, and the body of the wand corresponds to the flesh and blood. The length of the wand and the length of the arm determine the distance between the magic power and the outside world. The wand absorbs your magic power, adapts to your magic power, and then becomes a part of your body, carrying the same mystery as you and acting as a medium.

responsibility, a task that only a magic wand can easily accomplish."

I have never felt that the history of magic course went so fast. Professor Spencer was disrupted and had to modify the homework content he had originally prepared. For this reason, he had to delay the end of get out of class for a few minutes.

And it could be said that these few minutes of delay put Jody into a minor crisis.

"Why are you pretending to understand, Joyce?" Without giving Jody a chance to avoid it, Miles led the small gang he gathered and blocked Jody's path.

Headed by Miles Blige, there were the big man Munch and the rebellious big boy Olgierd on both sides. Keira, a woman, was responsible for blocking the road behind her.

Jodi had been keeping his eyes down vigilantly and tried not to get into any confrontation with these immature brats. He was really unmotivated by a job that was not beneficial at all.

Unfortunately, it seemed that God had seen through his wish to be clever. At this time, there were only a few people watching the excitement in the corridor, let alone professors passing by.

Now that he has faced this situation, he will never choose to run away. Jodi does not want to face such boring cat and mouse chases every day in the future.

"...Look at me! Listen to me! Joyce, are you looking down on me or my family? I hate your mocking eyes the most. What are you looking down on?"

Jody sighed inwardly. If possible, he really didn't want to use these last resort preparations.

He finally raised his head, and his eyes met with Miles head-on. His eyes did not contain any emotion but contained a sense of scrutiny. There was no trace of panic or timidity at all.

It was clear that the opponent was surrounded, but it was difficult for Miles to find a sense of superiority.

Jody didn't say a word, but just put his right hand into his robe to dig out something inside. The hidden pocket in the sleeve of his left hand was opened, and the wand slipped out of his hand.

"Why, do you still want to take out the wand?" Miles and others all showed mocking smiles, "Even if you take it out, what can you do, blow up some fireworks to liven up the atmosphere? Hold him down, I want to give him some

lesson!"

Jodi did not look at the two younger brothers who were gathered around him. He kept his eyes on Miles, focused and calm.

Most school bullying starts with the first concession. It may just be a weird nickname or an innocuous errand.

The party who encounters misfortune is often a relatively honest child who respects the rules. This is very unreasonable. It's like God is favoring the evildoers.

Jody doesn't favor evildoers, he has the courage to promote the shuffle, and he never mind making things big.

You can't be bullied by children.

He certainly didn't need his Browning against a character like Miles, although he would have liked to have pulled it out once and for all.

Jody took out two long handles from under his clothes and threw one of them towards Miles.

Miles subconsciously reached out to block it, and after grabbing it in his hand, he took a closer look. He saw that the thin iron piece was wrapped in a wooden shell, and the delicate mechanism dragged the tail of the blade.

Jodi flicked the utility knife in his hand and the extremely sharp blade popped out a small section, flashing with cold light. At the same time, his other hand raised the wand exposed under his robe.

"What is this?" Miles tried to push the blade out. He guessed the general purpose of this tool, but he couldn't understand what Jody was thinking.

"Give your opponent the same weapon to show fairness, it is an invitation!" Holding a dangerous item in each hand and slowly raising them for easy display, Jody's voice was loud and clear in the corridor.

echoed, "An invitation to a duel!"
