The days of hanging out at Hogwarts

"Dear Grandpa Bates:

how are things? I hope you had a safe full moon night last week...

You are so lucky to have met me! Principal Dumbledore of Hogwarts is a warm-hearted person. With the help of the principal and professors, I got a magic potion that can be drunk a week in advance to keep you sane when you transform on a full moon night.

... Hehe, the disadvantage is that it is very bitter, and adding even a little bit of sugar will make the potion lose its effect. I hope this old man can bear it...

The potion comes with the letter...

Everything is fine with me at school, no need to worry.

Loren"

When Loren came back from Snape's place, he wrote this letter and prepared it for Hanhan to send it out tomorrow.

It had been a week since the last time he picked the pistils in Snape's office, and this time Snape didn't let Loren handle any strange medicinal materials. After testing Loren's knowledge about potions, he showed him the brewing process of a low-level potion and asked Loren to hand in a one-foot paper to him next week.

Loren also got the long-awaited wolfsbane potion.

In a hand-sized bottle, this thing doesn't look like much. The overall color is a coquettish purple color, which looks very poisonous. When you smell it up close, it smells like fermented rotten eggs.

It would definitely take a lot of determination for him to drink it. I hope Grandpa Bates is old and his sense of taste has deteriorated, otherwise drinking the potion will not be much easier than turning into a werewolf.

Loren was in a happy mood since he didn't have to deal with potions and got the wolfsbane potion. As for the thesis, do you know how valuable the water thesis of college students is, not to mention that there is no need to check for plagiarism.

After putting the letter away, Loren got on the bed.

Press your finger on the duel room icon and it will appear in the magical book.

The classroom has a high ceiling and no tables, chairs or stools, so it looks a bit empty.

"Flamel, I think I can give it a try!" Loren said loudly. After a week of practice, he has been able to smoothly cast the Iron Armor Curse.

Flamel floated down from the air and landed in front of Loren with a smile on his face: "I'm happy to oblige."

Before he finished speaking, Flamel's face blurred for a while, and finally changed into a face familiar to Loren, exactly like his own.

"There is no better way to understand yourself than to fight yourself." Flamel bowed to Loren with his face in front of him.

Loren was a little awkward, fighting with himself, which sounded strange.

Flamel coughed twice, and his voice became the same as Loren's, clear and childish, "I won't use spells that you don't know, and the power of my spells will be consistent with yours."

"preparation!"

Loren concentrated, bowed and raised his wand in front of him.

The iron armor curse is on your lips, ready to be released at any time.

"[Fluorescent Flash]" Flamel started with a fluorescent spell.

Loren didn't even think about it: "[Armor Protection]"

The fluorescent spell is not an attack spell, it is not directed at Loren, and it cannot trigger the magic barrier.

The dazzling white light dazzled Loren, and he subconsciously turned his head and closed his eyes.

Loren can't cast the Iron Armor Charm on his body yet, so only the tip of the wand can play a defensive role. Stimulated by the strong light, Loren put away his posture and protected his eyes, and the iron armor curse was cancelled.

Loren was defenseless at the moment. He realized this the moment he canceled the iron armor curse and immediately rolled forward to the right.

Flamel was not surprised at all: "[Back off the enemy three feet]"

The repulse spell is one of the nine spells taught in the first year. Loren has previewed it, and even Hermione can cast it. However, the two of them did not pay attention to this curse.

Loren now realized that as long as the time is right, there is no useless spell.

The green light hit Loren, and he felt as if someone was kicking him in the chest. He was knocked back and finally fell to the ground.

Flamel stopped his hand and said with a smile: "As immature as a child."

Loren held her chest to calm down, rolled her eyes, and said, "I am just a child."

It was so embarrassing. Loren thought he could rely on the Iron Armor Curse to defend against one or two spells. In the end, he didn't survive two moves. A fluorescent spell allowed him to cancel the iron armor spell, and a knockback spell eliminated his combat effectiveness.

Flamel began to summarize the battle: "Don't expect to catch the incoming curse. If you can hide, just hide. If you can use the counter-spell, just recite the counter-spell. The last option is to let the curse hit you. Never be a target..."

Loren's idea of ​​a wizard duel was very childish, with one person chanting a spell, and then the opponent defending against the spell, in a turn-based manner.

In fact, some wizards grasp the rhythm of the battle and can quickly release a whole set of spells to make the enemy overwhelmed, until the enemy becomes negligent and seizes the flaw to solve the battle.

A skilled wizard can place two or even more spells on the opposite side in the time it takes to place one.

"Come again!"

Loren stood up and exhaled, eyes sparkling with excitement.

Loren started his dueling class, and the result was very ugly, and he was also very embarrassed.

Loren was on guard against the fluorescent spell that broke the armor at the beginning, but the fluorescent spell was not limited to the starting position, and could also be interspersed between other spells, seriously disrupting Loren's vision.

"Come again!"

The fire spell squeezed Loren's movement space, and the softening spell was inadvertently released a few steps behind Loren, eventually forcing Loren to step on the floor tile and lose his balance.

For the nine spells in the first-grade textbook, Flamel could always come up with various combinations. Interfering with Loren, controlling Loren so that he has no time to hide or release the Iron Armor Curse, the last one is a simple [Retreat the Enemy Three Feet].

Loren realized that even the nine basic spells of the first-year students could be mixed and used to form extraordinary combat effectiveness.

After each battle, Flamel would point out Loren's fault, but would not tell him how to solve it.

Loren could only slowly find his way forward while being kicked away again and again.

His combat system didn't work. He was always passive, avoiding, and defensive. What kind of control, interruption has no effect at all.

This kind of practical training has achieved remarkable success.

At first, Loren could only use the Iron Armor Curse to support himself. Later, he would occasionally hit Flamel with a cold blow to slow down Flamel's continuous formula.

From being able to sustain a few spells to being able to sustain it for three minutes.

After an unknown amount of time, Flamel stopped: "That's it for today. Take it step by step, Loren."

Loren was actually a little unwilling. He held his breath, thinking that sooner or later, he would hit this old guy with ten consecutive rounds of repel spells.

Touching his chest, it felt like it had been trampled repeatedly by a wild horse. Loren breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was a conscious body and the injuries would not be brought to reality. Next time he came in, he would be a good man again.

"Understand the importance of rhythm in battle. Only by grasping the rhythm can you grasp the victory."

Flamel was actually very satisfied with such progress for the first time. Loren's combat awareness was excellent.

Most importantly, Loren has an unyielding will. Some people will become depressed after being beaten repeatedly, and their dueling style will tend to be defensive, but real warriors cannot be defensive.
