Hogwarts: This wizard wants to make progress too much

Voldemort proved this point; he didn't know where his Horcruxes were, only sensing something when one was destroyed.

“I should be the last Horcrux, but I don't know what the main body mastered afterward, after all, my time stopped at that moment.”

“What kind of knowledge do you want to know? I can tell you.”

According to the original idea, setting six Horcruxes was the maximum. If there were seven, the soul might not be able to withstand it and there would be a risk of collapse.

“Okay, let me replenish some vitality and magic for you first, and then we'll talk.”

Saying that, Ethan directly crushed the spirits of three goblins, sacrificing their magic and vitality to the despicable Horcrux of Herpo the Foul.

When this ugly, deformed baby absorbed these, it had a look of intoxication.

And changed its image in a burst of light, looking over eighty years old, with completely white eyebrows and beard, but not a single hair on its head.

In terms of image, it was a fierce and vicious old man, which looked a little more pleasing than the deformed baby image.

Chapter 195: Patronus Charm · Modified

End of January.

After the Christmas holiday, Hogwarts has been in session for more than three weeks.

“Expecto Patronum!”

The silvery-white mist flickered with dazzling brilliance, and a silvery-white, sturdy horse with a shoulder height of about 2.2 meters formed from the white mist. The most peculiar thing was the spiral unicorn on its head, about eighty centimeters long.

After the silvery-white horse took shape, it immediately strode away, and the fifteen Dementors surrounding Hermione retreated under the effect of the silvery-white brilliance.

And this silvery-white horse still rushed forward relentlessly. With a unicorn impact, the Dementor that was hit was immediately knocked tens of meters away, and its body also turned gray.

Ethan immediately collected these Dementors, he couldn't let it continue to wreak havoc.

The silvery-white horse that lost its target began to run around the Room of Requirement, exuding a dazzling silvery-white glow, giving people a sense of sacredness.

It was brighter than Ethan's and Penelope's Patronus Charms.

Seeing the image of her Patronus, Hermione also breathed a sigh of relief, with a long-lost look of joy on her face.

Ethan's and Penelope's Patronus images were both special magical animal appearances, and the next one was herself. This still made Hermione worry for a while about whether her Patronus image had changed.

“Unicorn Patronus, just being close to it when it was just born can force back fifteen Dementors, very good.”

Ethan also applauded.

Most likely because the magic blood she took was the unicorn version, which has a higher resistance to Dementors. Penelope only needed seven Dementors to force out the second stage of the Patronus Charm.

But when Hermione faced seven Dementors, it was not her limit at all.

Ethan also increased the number of Dementors along the way, until today's fifteen Dementors, which made Hermione learn the second stage of the Patronus Charm under heavy pressure.

Although it is not as large as Penelope's Thunderbird form in terms of volume, they have just reached the second stage. When facing Dementors, the pressure and strength exuded are obviously stronger.

What are the specific differences? This requires Hermione to experiment and test it herself.

After all, from the appearance, whether it is Ethan, Penelope, or the various professors, or even Dumbledore's phoenix Patronus that I saw last time, they are not as bright as Hermione's.

With this kind of peculiarity, it is naturally not just a matter of color. Its existence must have special features.

And this peculiarity must also be that the unicorn version of magic blood has a special effect on the Patronus Charm.

Otherwise, Hermione's Patronus would be a useless otter, and it would be good to be able to deal with three or five Dementors when it was just born.

This also overturned Ethan's idea that the unicorn version of magic blood was useless.

“Yeah!”

Hearing Ethan say this, Hermione nodded with a smile on her face.

Hermione was also quite satisfied with her Patronus.

“You rest for a while first, and then you can open a practice spell room to test what is different between your Patronus Charm and ours.”

“Okay!”

Hermione naturally wouldn't refuse, but when she walked to the rest area, she didn't cancel the Unicorn Patronus, and still let it walk beside her.

“Now it's your turn?”

Saying that, Ethan looked at Cassandra, Cho Chang, and Nagini. Their progress was about the same.

They also practiced together. Their current progress is much better than before Christmas, but there is still some distance to reach the second stage.

According to Ethan's speculation, it will take at least two to three weeks to reach the second stage. It is really difficult to learn the Patronus Charm.

“Yeah, okay!”

Cassandra and others nodded to indicate that they were ready.

Before this, they had faced the Dementors once, and now it is the second round.

Nine brand new Dementors were pulled out of Nibelungen by Ethan. Now there are no more that have not been ravaged by the Patronus Charm.

Fortunately, Penelope and Hermione will not need the assistance of Dementors in the future, which reduces the loss of Dementors a lot.

Later, they can barely recover. After all, except for the heavy damage when the second stage Patronus is formed, under normal circumstances, they are used for practice, and they are not damaged much when covered by the silvery-white mist, so they can be used repeatedly.

“Expecto Patronum!” × 3

Just as the Dementors were about to get close, three voices shouted almost at the same time, and three clusters of thick silvery-white mist floated out from the tips of the wands in the hands of the three.

According to the size of the silvery-white mist, you can roughly know the size of the three people's Patronus Charms at this moment. Cassandra's is the largest, and Cho Chang's is the smallest.

This is also quite in line with the size of the magical animal bodies of the magic blood taken by several people.

After a while, Ethan collected all the Dementors and handed a little chocolate to Cassandra and others.

There is always some progress each time, which is not bad.

This kind of learning method of adding a little pressure after each adaptation, Ethan feels is more suitable, so the number is not always increased sharply each time.

After letting Cassandra and others go to rest, Ethan himself also began to ponder the Patronus Charm aside.

Back then, after experiencing the pressure from the Dementors and raising the Patronus Charm to level five, after nearly half a year of learning, it has now reached level eight.

Although this is not the maximum level, the proficiency is definitely quite high.

Now is also the time to start improving the Patronus Charm.

Happiness, hope, protection, and love are all contained within the Patronus Charm, all positive and uplifting emotions.

Then wouldn't anger, destruction, despair, and slaughter be another dark magic version of the Patronus Charm?

Since it can be a positive image to protect oneself, but the best defense is offense, why can't it contain malice to turn the Patronus into a tool for slaughter?

Spells are not inherent things; all that have been passed down are invented by predecessors, and a considerable part of them have been improved step by step.

Just like Snape, many of his potion steps are different from those recorded in external books, optimizing many of the steps.

Not only potions, but he also invented several spells, which is creativity.

Now Ethan wants to make fundamental changes to the Patronus Charm, which is difficult, but not impossible.

Especially since Ethan has a talent for the dark arts, he has a natural advantage in learning and creating dark magic.

"Expecto Patronum!"

A silver-white five-headed dragon appeared above Ethan's head, although it looked ferocious, it had a sense of sacredness.

With a few gentle waves of the wand, the silver-white five-headed dragon immediately dissipated into nothingness.

Still following the operating mode of the Patronus Charm just now, but converting the emotions in his heart into anger, destruction, despair, and slaughter.

Although he has the talent of the Dark Heart, Ethan doesn't need the assistance of emotions to use any dark magic.

But now he is modifying the original magic, so emotional assistance is naturally needed.

Fortunately, this step is not too difficult, just bring in the emotions from Crete Island some time ago. Although using dark magic didn't require emotional assistance at that time, it was impossible for no emotions to arise during the killing process.

In this process, compared to the smoothness and naturalness just now, it felt that the magic power was running a bit difficult.

However, Ethan still made some progress. The silver-white mist behind him was mixed with strands of black, but this neither white nor black mist had just formed the outline of a giant dragon when it exploded.

Caught off guard, Ethan was directly blown away, and a small mushroom cloud rose directly from the spot. Ethan was also blown to the ceiling of the Room of Requirement and then fell directly from the sky.

"Cough cough!"

After coughing twice, Ethan got up from the ground. His good wizard robe, a high-end robe made of acromantula silk, was now directly turned into beggar's clothes.

Fortunately, Ethan activated his dragon transformation at a critical moment, allowing the dragon scales on the surface of his body to further strengthen his physical and magical resistance, which allowed him to be safe and sound.

Apart from some slight pain in his body, there were no other problems. At least he didn't lose any arms or legs.

If someone else had been there, after this wave of explosions, it would be questionable whether they could even piece together a complete person.

Ethan suspected that Seamus was staring at him just now, otherwise, how could a good Patronus Charm become an Exploding Charm?

He doesn't have that kind of talent.

"Ethan, are you okay!"

Cassandra and the others, who had been knocked to the ground by the strong wind pressure, rushed to Ethan's side as soon as they got up.

They had all seen the power of the explosion just now.

Even though they knew Ethan's physical fitness was high and his magic skills were strong, they couldn't help but worry.

"I'm fine!"

Ethan turned his head and waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

At worst, some internal organs were bruised. After drinking a bottle of potion, plus his own recovery ability, he would probably be repaired after sitting and resting for a while.

Hearing Ethan say this, the girls looked Ethan up and down for a while before they felt relieved. He really didn't seem to have any major problems, except!

"Your hair and face!"

Nagini pointed to Ethan's head.

"What's wrong?"

Ethan really didn't know. He could only feel the condition of various parts of his body, and his face was indeed a little sore.

But with the protection of the dragon scales just now, the damage shouldn't be too bad!

Penelope directly took out a small mirror that she carried with her, opened it, and placed it in Ethan's hand.

Only then did Ethan see his appearance at the moment. His face was dark, probably blackened by the explosion just now. Although the dragon scales defended it, this change still remained on his face after the dragon scales shed.

And his hair had become a scene, and a considerable part of it was charred. All in all, it was extremely ugly.

But this was not a big problem. After cutting off his hair later, he could drink a bottle of hair growth potion. The face was even simpler, just needing to be cleaned.

Chapter 196: Using Felix Felicis

"Ethan, haven't you already learned the Patronus Charm?"

"What was that just now?"

From the beginning, Cassandra and the others had been paying attention to Ethan's movements. The magic just now looked like the Patronus Charm, but it felt a bit different, otherwise, the explosion wouldn't have happened.

But Ethan shouldn't have made such a mistake!

"Remember what I said before about reversing the form of the Patronus Charm?"

"I was trying this just now."

Ethan had this idea a long time ago, and he had told Cassandra and the others about it, but he had never put it into action.

The main reason was that he felt that his proficiency with the Patronus Charm was not enough before, and even if he tried, it would be useless, so it was not until today that Ethan really began to implement this idea.

"Experiments with magic ~ are very dangerous."

Luna, who had been a transparent person all along, frowned and suddenly opened her mouth.

Her mother died because of a magical experiment, and she happened to see that scene. The commotion at that time was far less than the one Ethan caused this time.

She didn't want Ethan to have any accidents either.

"You saw just now, I didn't have any problems."
