Study Days at Hogwarts

Many people will not give up easily until they get frustrated.

Albert's roommate was obviously no exception. After studying the first volume of "Practical Defense Magic and Its Restraint against Dark Magic" for a long time, he finally couldn't help but give it a try.

"Armor for protection!" Fred raised his wand and swiped it downwards, and recited the spell according to the book, but nothing happened.

"The book says the Iron Armor Curse won't shine!" George reminded him by comparing the two gestures.

"Here, try again." Li Jordan picked up "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" and threw it at Fred.

"Do you want to smash me to death?" Fred jumped away quickly and glared at Lee Jordan.

"Encountering danger can stimulate your potential, and a book will definitely not kill you." Li Qiaodan immediately argued.

"Use this!" Albert threw Fred's pillow to Li Jordan angrily. He thought it would be difficult for Fred to succeed. Isn't throwing the book looking for trouble?

In fact, Albert was right, Fred gave up temporarily after being hit by his own pillow several times.

Of course, neither George nor Lee Jordan succeeded.

"Okay, you better practice the simpler spells obediently." Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes at the two of them.

What should this be called?

Overestimating one's capabilities and being greedy?

Well, I guess Professor McGonagall also viewed herself the same way at that time.

However, Albert is different from the three!

He has a panel and an experience pool. As long as he has the skills, he can use the experience to cheat at any time.

"Is there any trick to quickly learn the Iron Armor Curse?" Fred couldn't help but ask.

"The secret?" Albert thought for a moment and said, "Practice more - this is probably the fastest secret!"

"But how did you master these spells so quickly? The summer vacation has only been long!" George was a little depressed. He found that Albert knew a lot of magic!

This made him wonder who was born into a wizarding family.

"I think I can probably guess a little bit of the reason!" Albert thought for a while and said.

"What's the reason?" Fred asked quickly.

"Have you ever played a game that can be upgraded?" Albert glanced at the expressions on the faces of several people, "Well, I guess you haven't played it. To put it another way. Does playing chess require practice to become good? "

"What does this have to do with playing chess?" the twins couldn't help but complain.

"Playing chess requires not only talent, but also improvement of chess skills through practice. The higher the chess skills, the better." Albert casually gave an example that did not fit. "Magic is actually similar. Casting spells requires talent..."

"You want to say that your talent is better than ours?" Li Jordan interrupted him and complained.

"No, what I want to say is that you need to improve your magical power and control of magic through practice." Albert explained speechlessly.

"You mean your magic power is stronger than ours and your control over magic is better than ours?" the twins asked suspiciously.

"Yes, at least I think so for the time being." Albert nodded, "As I master more and more spells, I find that learning some new spells will become easier than before. I still remember Professor McGonagall What I said at the beginning: Hogwarts can teach underage wizards how to control and use magic."

"Why do I feel like you're deceiving us?" Fred raised his eyebrows.

"I won't do that kind of thing, and I also said that this is just my guess." Albert shook his head repeatedly. He did not fool the three of them. As the number of self-taught magic increased, he became more concerned about the problems that occurred when learning magic. Failure experience is also gradually accumulated, which is the additional experience accumulation that is lacking in directly upgrading skills using the experience pool.

After repeated failures, the Weasley twins had temporarily given up trying to master the Iron Armor Charm and focused their attention on the Unlocking Charm.

After practicing for a while in the afternoon, Fred was the first to succeed. He successfully used the unlocking spell to open the lock of the drawer.

"Awesome, how did you do that!" George looked at Fred with a little envy, his drawer was still motionless.

"Look, Fred learned the lock-picking spell first, and I won." Albert, who was reading a book next to him, winked at Li Jordan and said with an innocent face, he handed a pepper urchin to Li Jordan's hand. In front of me, "Eat, I'm willing to admit defeat."

"What are you betting on?" Fred asked doubtfully.

"Bet on who of you can master the unlocking spell first." Albert said with a smile, "If you lose, you will eat this..."

As he said this, he raised his hand and pointed at the little pepper naughty boy bought in Duke Bee Candy Shop.

"Albert is right, he is willing to admit defeat."

George patted his friend's shoulder and looked at him expectantly. Yes, he was looking forward to Li Jordan eating that candy and breathing fire out of his nose.

"It's all your fault." Li Qiaodan said with a look of resentment. He opened the candy wrapper and stuffed the candy into his mouth. His cheeks suddenly turned red and there was cold sweat on his forehead.

next moment.

"It's so spicy..." When Li Qiaodan opened his mouth, a really spicy flame burst out from his nostrils, instantly confusing George's face.

"Asshole, you must have done it on purpose." George's face was a little dark and smelled of pepper.

"Ahem." Li Qiaodan sprayed out some more flames.

However, after seeing what happened to George, Albert and Fred immediately hid far away, for fear of suffering unreasonable disaster.

That guy must have done it on purpose, yes, he must have done it.

A few minutes later, Li, who had just rinsed his mouth in the bathroom, looked at Albert with a look of resentment. The smell of pepper had not completely dissipated, and his nostrils were still red from the fire.

"Next time, I will never bet on this with you." Li Qiaodan said angrily.

"I'll try the multi-flavor beans next time." Albert blinked and picked three at random with his eyes closed.

"That's a good idea."

"Aren't you going to continue practicing? Even if you succeed once, it doesn't mean you can succeed every time." Albert threw a chocolate bean into his mouth and started to turn over the "Selected Spells of the Nineteenth Century", a book he Already two-thirds of the way through.

"How are you doing with the Disguise Charm?" Fred asked, changing the subject.

"I haven't completely mastered it yet. That spell is much more difficult than the lock-picking spell." Albert glanced at the information on the panel. He only had 35 points of experience in the Disguise Charm. He still needed to train hard to reach the level 100 level.

"Is that spell really difficult?" George asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's difficult." Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes and said, "I heard that it is one of the spells that Aurors must learn. Well, what is the profession of Auror?"

Of course Albert knew what an Auror was, but as someone who was exposed to the Muggle world, he shouldn't have too many attempts in the magical world.

"It's over!"

"What's over?" Albert asked doubtfully.

"I'm sure I won't be able to learn the Disillusionment Curse this year." The twins couldn't help but wailed. This is a must-have spell for night outings.
