Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

Afterward, Anduin shifted his gaze to the magic book, where the original Lightning Rune still lay quietly.

"Since you originate from the Thunderbird, you should be able to coexist harmoniously with Dark Drawing."

Anduin had a new idea. He once again brought Dark Drawing close to the original rune, then urged his magic, absorbing the rune.

Then, with a 'whoosh', the original rune was absorbed into Dark Drawing.

After accepting the original rune, Dark Drawing was like taking a great tonic. The Thunderbird feather wand core within it became even more vibrant, and even the thunderbolt ebony wood outside was nourished.

The originally matte wand handle bloomed with circles of silver halo. After gradually calming down, it returned to its original matte color, but the fine lines on the wand seemed to be inlaid with strands of silver, making it particularly beautiful.

"Very good, it seems Dark Drawing is very satisfied with the Wild Lightning Rune." Anduin nodded with satisfaction, "Next, I have to focus on testing the various indicators of Wild Lightning."

No sooner said than done, Anduin neatly cleaned up the laboratory. The set of plastic protective clothing and potions were not needed and were all put away.

Then, Anduin took out instruments from his space bag one by one, carefully arranging and connecting them.

"The main thing is to carry out voltage tests, comparing 'Wild Lightning' with the basic lightning rune. Let's start with a magic power output of 5 notches."

With that said, he started the large multimeter on the test bench. This was a standard instrument for measuring voltage, which he had previously bought from a Muggle store.

Then he took out a small frame with a one-millimeter-thick copper wire on it, and carefully connected the multimeter's poles to the copper wire.

After that, Anduin did not use his wand. Now that Dark Drawing contained the Wild Lightning Rune, it was obvious that casting spells with the Wild Lightning Rune would have a boosting effect, so casting spells with the wand would affect the accuracy of data collection.

Anduin held his left hand empty, and an ordinary lightning rune appeared in his palm. Then he controlled his magic power output, guiding the current to discharge to the copper wire with a magic power output of 5 notches.

Maintaining this state, he discharged ten times in a row, recording the data on the multimeter one by one.

After dissipating the lightning rune, he manifested the Wild Lightning Rune, similarly controlling the magic power output at 5 notches, discharging to the copper wire, also discharging ten times, and recording the data.

"Under the influence of my willpower and deliberately controlled calm emotions, the magic intensity did not fluctuate particularly much."

"Under this premise, after testing the ordinary lightning rune, the average voltage of ten times is around 200V, and after testing the Wild Lightning, the average voltage is around 1000V."

"That is to say, under the same magic power output and the same magic intensity, the voltage generated by Wild Lightning is five times that of ordinary voltage. Is it that exaggerated?" Anduin compared the data with some surprise.

"This has already exceeded the scope of low-voltage electricity, so if after a long period of practice, and with the amplification of Dark Drawing, increasing the output ratio, it may even reach the power of high voltage or ultra-high voltage in the future."

This discovery gave Anduin stronger confidence in the potential of Wild Lightning. It truly deserves to be an ancient original rune.

"But it must be considered that the electrical energy will be greatly attenuated when propagating in the air. This is also the reason why I have not practiced lightning magic very much before. To extend the attack range, sufficient strength and a conductor are needed."

"Among them, the best conductor is actually magic power, that is to say, the farther the attack distance, the greater the consumption of magic power."

"Or borrowing other conductors, such as water, metal, or even..."

Anduin was thinking about the application direction of Wild Lightning in combat tactics.

"Directly using lightning attacks requires a lot of magic power support. To reduce magic power consumption, it must be fast. Casting spells must be completed at a sufficiently fast speed, or it must be matched with other spells, or form certain attack runes."

Then Anduin followed his inspiration and recorded the next research direction for Wild Lightning on parchment.

"First, develop a high-speed, high-density electric shock rune!"

"Second, try replacing the lightning runes in existing lightning magic with 'Wild Lightning', such as the 'Weather Charm'."

"Third, develop other functions for the laws of electricity, such as 'ball lightning', 'electromagnetic cannon', 'electromagnetic pulse', etc."

"Fourth, develop tactics that can be used with other spells, such as 'electric water gun', adding lightning storm functions to 'Flying Raven Spell', etc."

"Fifth, make equipment that can be matched with and carry 'Wild Lightning'. For example, if the Spirit Snake is also engraved with the 'Wild Lightning' rune, the effect should be good."

"Sixth, test and experiment whether the 'Wild Lightning' rune has other characteristics, just like Fiendfyre. As an original rune, it is not only powerful, but also has terrible characteristics such as being almost impossible to extinguish, mimicking, and actively burning everything around it that can be burned."

After determining the research direction, Anduin prepared to calm down and develop this newly acquired 'Wild Lightning' rune during the rest of the summer vacation.

At the same time, it was time to properly digest the many books and knowledge scavenged from the Travers family, and with the large number of materials in his hand, his alchemy also had more room to display.

Next was a boring and tasteless day. Anduin studied books every morning, and began various rune experiments and spell practice in the laboratory in the afternoon, or drew drawings to make alchemy props.

Only at meal times would Anduin go to the Leaky Cauldron to have a good meal with Tom and chat with him.

Soon Anduin's summer vacation time passed quickly, and he came to King's Cross Station alone again.

However, unlike in the past, the originally low-key and unnoticed Anduin received everyone's attention at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.

During this month, Anduin had completely changed his appearance. The monocle in front of him was changed from the original brass color to silver, and his hair was cut short, but he was still recognized by everyone.

It's no wonder that this summer, news about Anduin, the combat hero, could be seen almost every day, whether it was serious or not.

This made his return rate almost 100%. Everyone pointed at him, but he was very calm. After getting on the train, he casually found an empty carriage and鑽了进去。

"Hey, Anduin, how was your summer?" Vivian walked into the carriage and greeted Anduin as usual.

"You." Anduin glanced at the other party speechlessly, "What's the matter with that so-called exclusive report?"
