The Magical Principles of Natural Philosophy at Hogwarts

There are many factors that influence the efficiency of magic conversion, that is, the efficiency of magic use, such as the wizard's overall magic level, understanding of magic, spell-casting skills, etc.

This is not the same concept as reducing magic power consumption, because there is an upper limit to the maximum magic power that each magic spell can carry, which means that the efficiency of magic use directly increases the upper limit of the power of the magic spell.

It can be understood that the magic power conversion efficiency is a separate multiplication area, and the magic power level multiplied by the magic power conversion efficiency is the actual basic power of the magic spell.

Then multiplied by the wizard's combat literacy and equipment increase, you can basically get the approximate value of a wizard's combat effectiveness.

Returning to the aspect of magical alchemy items, although Erwin said that he can only make fifth-level endogenous configurations at present, he can already be regarded as a quite good alchemist in today's magical society. After all,

The application of magic texts requires extremely high understanding and magical talent. The alchemy items that are popular in the magic world today are the most basic ones that only have a simple and single function.

Once the magic source is solved, you can consider other aspects.

Erwin's positioning of classic cars is very clear. What he makes is a means of transportation and transportation that is not particularly high in technology.

The unique thing is that it is self-aware and does not require a driver.

Install a full set of magic steel plates to make it resistant to general spells; optimize the engine to increase flight speed; upgrade the stealth function, at least not to be directly detected by basic detection spells...

Of course, all these functions cannot exceed the load limit of the fifth-level energy configuration.

It is not yet possible to have the ability to apparate like the Knight Bus, but the modified classic car can indeed be regarded as a qualified means of transportation.

"So, you are getting yourself such a cumbersome means of transportation?" Riddle asked doubtfully while Erwin was busy.

"It'll work," Erwin said.

The original intention of rebuilding the classic car was just that he didn't want to ride a broom. The process of rebuilding was also a practice of the magic knowledge he had learned.

"You spend so much time on this useless means of transportation, why don't you just practice apparation?" Riddle asked.

"Isn't it said that Apparition is a very difficult magic to learn?"

"Difficult? How difficult is it? Even the stupidest wizard can perform it. The training institution of the Ministry of Magic only gives you a dozen lessons before allowing you to take the exam. How difficult do you think it is?" Riddle sneered.

One sound.

"Then why are there restrictions on students who must be in sixth grade or above to study? And also set up a license?"

"Because this is the most dangerous magic that most idiots have access to, there is a high chance that they will only teleport part of their bodies and commit suicide." Riddle explained patiently: "As for you and me,

There will never be any problem in controlling a spell of this level."

"I see." Erwin nodded, "But I don't have the learning materials for Apparition at hand. Since it is dangerous, you can't just start practicing it when you only know the spell, right?"

The Ministry of Magic still has relatively strict control over the learning materials for Apparition to prevent anyone from practicing it privately.

The cost of the Apparition course is twelve galleons, which should be one of the sources of revenue for the Ministry of Magic.

"I can teach you." Riddle said.

This is not what Erwin expected. The Riddle in the diary is fixedly sixteen years old. At this age, he is not even able to learn Apparition through formal channels... You can only sign up during the summer vacation of sixth grade.

But how could the future Dark Lord take the laws of the Ministry of Magic seriously?

In fact, Erwin doesn't pay much attention to it. Many laws of the Ministry of Magic lack absolute rationality, and more importantly, they do not have the ability to strictly enforce the laws. The most direct shortcoming is the serious shortage of manpower.

Just maintaining confidentiality laws is a bit stretched.

As the only government agency in magical society, it is indeed too weak, but there is no better system that can replace it.

There is no doubt that with Erwin's magic level approaching that of an adult wizard evaluated by elites, he can certainly learn to apparate.

"Why are you suddenly showing off your kindness for nothing?" Erwin narrowed his eyes, "Let me declare in advance that I will not agree to any of your conditions."

Riddle snorted coldly, "I'm just worried that you will suffer a big loss when you go to the United States. You don't go to class seriously. The Americas are not as peaceful as the British side. Just the wide range of dangerous magical animals are enough for you to drink.

It's just a pot, and Dumbledore won't be there to protect you."

Erwin thought about it and realized that indeed, the sign on Ollivander's Wand Shop stated that his ancestors had been making wands more than 300 BC, which meant that the two islands of Britain and Ireland had already been formed at that time.

A large-scale magical civilization.

For more than two thousand years, all dangerous non-human creatures here have been eliminated. Mountain monsters and giants have been basically extinct on these two islands. Fire dragons have been kept in captivity.

A race that poses almost no threat is strictly restricted to a small territory.

But America is different. Such a vast land is not as easy to control as the British island country. The glory of civilization full of magic has only shined on that land for five hundred years. Yes, American colonization also included magical colonization. At that time

The level of exploration of magic by the Native Americans was also very low, and they were powerless to fight back when faced with wand-waving wizards arriving from Europe.

It can indeed be considered that the danger in the Americas will be higher than that in the UK. Erwin is quite curious about how the magical governments of those countries in the Americas maintain secrecy laws.

He decided to accept Riddle's statement, feeling that this guy was trying to show his kindness.

Although the audio and video was blocked so he did not know the secret conversation between Erwin and Dumbledore, Riddle still seemed to be aware of something.

So in the following time, in addition to studying magic writing, Erwin also began to practice apparation.

Like most magics, the key points of learning Apparition are will and imagination. The caster must have enough determination and outline the situation of the teleportation target point in his mind.

In other words, the wizard can only apparate to a place he is familiar with, which is equivalent to having to open a "teleportation point" before completing the teleportation.

However, generally speaking, special teleportation safe zones will be set up in formal occasions where apparation is allowed to provide a stable magic beacon, so that wizards arriving for the first time do not need to open a "teleportation point" in advance.

Of course, in quite a few formal institutional settings, such as the British Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts, Apparition is absolutely prohibited.

However, elves cannot be banned, but because this servant race is not harmful, no one cares about it.

The practice of apparating should start with short-distance teleportation within sight, so that even if something goes wrong, you can immediately remedy it. For example, if you accidentally leave an arm behind, you can immediately reconnect it.

When he was experimenting with the Red Dragon Type I on the Cornwall elves a few months ago, Erwin's level of medical magic was already somewhat promising. He was no longer limited to treating simple small wounds. This also gave him

The capital to practice alone.

After all, the reason why there are only official Apparition courses is because the training venue provided by the Ministry of Magic is directly connected to St. Mungo's Hospital of Magic. Once a student hurts himself, he can receive immediate treatment.

For the sake of conservatism, Erwin sent Sabi to the Diagon Alley pharmacy to buy ointment for treating major trauma before starting practice.

Riddle disagreed, "Are you so unsure of yourself? With your talent and ability, it's impossible to make mistakes. Making such unnecessary preparations will make you feel like you have a way out and shake your determination." He said.

said sharply.

Erwin was unmoved. This may be the difference between him and Riddle. He believed that when conditions permit, one should be fully prepared for anything.

Of course, the situation was exactly as Riddle said, those ointments were not used, and after two days of practice, Erwin's first attempt was successful.

The first teleportation distance was five meters, and was accomplished by strictly using the correct spell-casting posture and shouting the spell correctly.

The most basic effect is achieved with the most basic casting requirements.

This is considered the first step.

"You're taking too long." Riddle was quite dissatisfied. "The next enhancement exercises for apparation are mainly reflected in three aspects: gradually increasing the teleportation distance, improving controllability, and increasing the casting speed to achieve silent casting without a wand.

.”

Frost's manor was large and in the suburbs, so Erwin could practice as he pleased without worrying about being seen by ordinary people.

After five days, he will be able to apparate beyond visual range.

Riddle was still a little dissatisfied, "I have been practicing apparation for so long, and I can teleport from the northernmost point to the southernmost point in the UK."

Erwin pretended not to hear.

On the fifth day of August, when he was walking from an abandoned construction site five kilometers away to the courtyard of the manor, he suddenly discovered an uninvited guest with a white beard.

Who else could it be if he wasn't Dumbledore?

Uncle Felwood was actually there, and seemed to be chatting happily with the principal, while Dipper was extremely reserved, with his legs trembling.

Erwin was embarrassed.

"It seems that you have mastered Apparition?" Dumbledore gave him a meaningful look, "Although this is strictly illegal, the essence of the law about Apparition is to prevent wizards from practicing without harm.

, this law does not apply to you."

He didn't mention false identity.

Erwin was relieved. How could he hide the arrangements he had made from the most powerful wizard in Britain?

Anyway, it was essentially to get into Hogwarts, and he didn't do anything extraordinary. The Dipper he took in didn't do anything harmful to the world. Erwin himself just killed a dark wizard who was full of evil, and he was still there.

When life is under threat.

In fact, Erwin recalled that he had discovered that Marduk had finally used the Oblivion Curse on him instead of the Death Curse, but he selectively ignored it.

"Mr. Dipper, I have heard of your name for a long time." Dumbledore looked back.

Dipper really looked like he was going to pee in fear.

"Don't be too nervous." Dumbledore smiled slightly, "I am not an official of the Ministry of Magic, nor do I hold any power. I am just an ordinary teacher."

"Dear Headmaster, my Erwin hasn't caused you any trouble, has he?" Felwood rarely behaved in a serious manner. He has met many big shots after all, and he can feel a different aura from this white-bearded old man.

field.

"I actually want to say no." Dumbledore laughed, "Erwin, I think you should be ready."

Erwin nodded, of course he knew what to do.

Riddle was too scared to say a word at this time, and Erwin silently closed off his perception of the outside world.

Melanie also slowly came out of the room, "My lord." She called to Dumbledore cautiously.

In front of Britain's most powerful wizard, all monsters, demons, monsters and ghosts were completely silent.

But his attitude towards his students was as warm and genial as the spring sunshine.

Erwin's respect for the principal increased even more.

"Without further ado, you all come over." Dumbledore said to Erwin and Melanie.

The two approached, and Dumbledore used his wand to draw a golden thread around the three of them.

The most basic form of Apparition is to teleport alone. At most, you only need to bring some personal belongings. At a higher level, like Professor McGonagall, you can teleport with others if there is physical contact.

But for someone like Dumbledore, Erwin found it difficult to understand. Everyone in the drawn area can teleport? Is there a teleportation limit?

There's no point in asking, he's just a beginner in Apparition now.

When the golden thread was sealed, the scene they could see began to distort and change.

A few seconds later, they appeared in a closed space. There were densely packed but many broken magic texts on the stone walls and stone floors.

This is the second subspace of the Wyrmsleep Sanctuary in Romania, and it is also the place where Erwin obtained the original dragon bloodline.

After he obtained the bloodline, the magic text array here completely lost its effect.

And in the subspace on the first level, there is a living primitive dragon sleeping, and it may never wake up.

Above the stone wall, there are magic flames illuminating every distance, making it not dark here.

Melanie looked around silently, her true thoughts could not be seen from her face.

After all, she also lost her power here, from the aloof vampire countess to the caged bird she is now.

"After sending you back, I carried out a certain degree of transformation here." Dumbledore looked around, "I closed the passage between it and the real world, cut off the connection, and now it is no longer possible to pass through the entrance to the ruins in Romania.

Come in here."

Erwin was shocked. Although Dumbledore said it lightly, it was such a grand gesture!

"In other words, the only way to reach this subspace is to apparate." Erwin responded quickly.
