The Magical Principles of Natural Philosophy at Hogwarts

In the empty Novin subspace, Erwin suddenly appeared. He was not a human boy now, but a young dragon.

The first thing he did was not immediately change back to his human form, but to inspect the items.

The wand, Riddle's diary, the ring of armor, the ring of rebuke, and Flamel's hut collapsed into a miniature cube, none of it is missing from Hogsmeade.

Generally speaking, when you transform yourself, your non-magical belongings will transform accordingly and become part of the transformed body.

But this is not the case for items with magical functions. Some are completely unable to be transformed, such as diaries and Flamel's cabin. Others are forcibly transformed and are basically destroyed directly, with no possibility of returning to their original state. The two items Erwin made himself

That's what rings are like.

The king's cloak was already soaked in the blood of the "Holy Father", and it was directly integrated into Erwin's scales when he transformed.

Quite interesting.

Of course, the wand is a special case. This kind of spell-casting equipment used by wizards all over the world is called the greatest invention in the history of magic. It makes sense. The wand can be regarded as an extension of the wizard's body. At the same time, the structure is simple enough and can be directly involved.

Nimagus transformation.

After making sure that he had not made a low-level mistake of missing something that would reveal his identity, and that no one had seen his true form, Erwin thought for a while and began to recall the feeling he had when he roared just now.

The roar that can directly shock the soul makes those Ministry of Magic wizards lose their ability to cast spells in a short period of time. There is no doubt that this is a very valuable move, at least it is more useful than the disarming spell, and it should be mastered skillfully.

He used to be guided by angry emotions and follow the roar of his instincts. Now he hopes to find a way to directly produce results that is not driven by emotions.

Using emotions to drive magic is essentially a tricky method of casting spells, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of using specific magic. However, it is ultimately a tricky method and has great shortcomings.

The disadvantage is that it is unstable.

Because no one can control their emotions accurately, once they get used to using emotions to drive magic, the power of the spells released will be extremely volatile, which may cause some chosen people to lose control under extreme circumstances.

Defeat strong enemies, but in most cases you will just lose the battle.

Therefore stability and controllability must be guaranteed.

Erwin thought about it for a while, tried it a few times, found the right feeling, and let out that soul-shaking roar again.

It's not very difficult. It feels like a natural ability, just like the kinetic energy given by another person's form. Using it feels like eating and drinking water.

The body of this primitive young dragon should have a lot of potential that can be developed.

Without the involvement of emotions, the effect of roaring may be reduced, but you can release it as long as you want to, and there is no need to brew emotions in advance.

This is controllability.

The next step is to take the time to practice a few more times, and then you can say that you have mastered it.

The body of the young dragon began to deform, and after a few seconds, the young Erwin stood up.

The combat power of the original baby dragon form is at least several times that of the human form. Unfortunately, this is one of his secrets that cannot be exposed, and he still has no idea how to make this baby dragon body grow.

Even the original Master Nico Flamel couldn't find a way, so he just grafted Erwin's bloodline.

After putting on his equipment again, Erwin suddenly noticed that the originally dark subspace suddenly lit up with some light.

He slowly walked over and found some scattered, activated magic words.

The walls and floors of this subspace are engraved with dense magic texts. Dumbledore told Erwin that the amount of information contained in these original magic texts far exceeds the level that humans can understand. Even he cannot understand too much.

many.

These original magic texts should be a treasure trove, but unfortunately they lost their final function after being accidentally activated by Erwin to help him obtain the "Norwin" bloodline.

At least that's what Dumbledore said.

But Erwin suddenly discovered that several magic script codes suddenly lit up again.

Is it because of the roar I just made?

But these magic words just light up and have no effect.

Erwin thought about it and decided that he should not try to do anything... He unfolded Flamel's cabin, asked Esmeralda to give him some pieces of parchment, and carefully copied down the magic script codes.

Regardless of whether research results can be produced or not, recording them is always necessary.

Sure enough, after he finished recording, the codes dimmed again, and even if he roared again, there was no movement.

After all, the magic text array here is almost completely damaged and should no longer respond.

After resting for a while, Erwin once again used long-distance apparation. With the sense of traveling through space that he had gradually become familiar with, he appeared in a basement.

It was the safe house in North Adams that he had just arranged a few days ago.

There was a very comfortable armchair here. Erwin sat on it and began to think about what had happened for more than an hour.

Everything seems like coincidence and accident. Is it really just bad luck?

Erwin was deeply impressed by the Dementor that actively attacked him. He clearly remembered that the monster said the word "you" to him.

This gave him a bad feeling.

His eyes turned to the diary. For a moment, there was no mental message coming, and Erwin thought that Riddle had just burped.

But in fact, it doesn't. After injecting some magic power into it, you can still vaguely feel Riddle's aura.

After all, this is a Horcrux, which can theoretically resist the death curse. As long as the Horcrux itself is not damaged, the remaining soul inside will not truly die.

But its power will still be exhausted. It has been sealed away by the Malfoy family for many years. Riddle has not been able to obtain any magic power for many years, so he is so hungry that even Ginny, a first-year girl, does not want to let go of any magic power.

After the condensed shadow was directly shattered by Erwin's roar, he returned to his original state. The magic power he had absorbed over the past year was all in vain.

In this state, he couldn't even send spiritual messages, and he could only communicate through words in his diary.

It's really tragic, but to say that Erwin has any empathy for him is obviously impossible.

But considering that this guy had indeed helped, Erwin allowed him to absorb the little magic power he injected into the diary.

"I sincerely thank Lord Frost for the gift." Soon, Riddle came to life again, "Of course, I also want to thank you for your 'life-saving grace'."

Of course, these two sentences are contradictory. Riddle didn't ask Erwin what animal he transformed into last. He didn't see it clearly at the time, and he also knew that Erwin would definitely not tell.

Erwin ignored the sarcasm in his words, "How much do you know about dementors? Do you know where this kind of thing came from?" he asked directly.

"What? You feel something is strange, right?"

Erwin nodded slightly.

"I'm not an expert on dangerous monsters, and my knowledge of Dementors is relatively limited. Since the Ministry of Magic treats them as jailers, there isn't much public information leaked out. But as far as I know, Dementors are only found in Azkaban.

They exist on the island where they live, and that has always been their habitat. When the Ministry of Magic discovered these monsters when it was first established, it immediately decided to build a wizard prison on that island."

"So what exactly are Dementors? Creatures? Ghosts? Since you said they can be destroyed by Avada Kedavra, are they actually soul bodies? And you told me before that Dementors can split themselves apart by devouring souls.

, so how were the first Dementors born?" Erwin frowned slightly.

"I can't give an accurate answer to this." Riddle said, "But if you want to find out, I have a suggestion."

"What advice?"

"You can try to get in touch with the dark side of the British wizarding world. As long as you pay enough, you can basically get most of the information."

"You mean Knockturn Alley?" Erwin asked.

"Knockturn Alley?" Riddle sneered, "How can a place that exists publicly represent the dark side of the British wizarding world?"

"Then how can I get in touch with the real dark side?"

"The so-called dark side, the most important internal connection is connections," Riddle said slowly, like a competent teacher. "Don't you already have a certain amount of connections now?"

Erwin nodded slightly. Yes, Lockhart's small group is now considered his "connection". The current benefit that this connection brings to him is that he can use Flourish and Blotts Bookstore as a teleportation point in Diagon Alley.

"Those who are in the book business must deal with some banned books. After all, you can't make much money just selling student textbooks. The owner of that bookstore must have some connection with the dark side. Do you... understand what I mean?

"

"I understand." Erwin nodded slightly.

"Very good." Riddle looked quite satisfied.

An hour later.

"Ask for leave?" Professor Twelve Trees looked at the young man in front of him in surprise.

"Yes." Erwin nodded, "Since there is nothing to do before Professor Suouene starts the subject, I plan to take this opportunity to do something more meaningful. I will temporarily leave Ifa for the next few days.

Moni.”

"Mr. Frost." Professor Twelve Trees said with a serious face, "Although you are not a student of Ilvermorny, you must abide by the rules here. It is impossible for me to let a third-year student go, even if there are only a few

Not even God..."

"Promise him."

Professor Twelve Trees looked at the sudden appearance of Professor Suuene with some surprise.

"I promised those principals that the students who participated in my research were free to come and go, and no one would interfere with their behavior. I think since Mr. Frost is the best in Hogwarts according to Professor Dumbledore,

Student, he must know what's appropriate." Suouene said in a deep voice.

Now that he has said that, Professor Twelve Trees can only agree to Erwin's request for leave.

After saying goodbye to the two professors, Erwin took the time to go to the library of Ilvermorny and read through a lot of books on monsters. He really couldn't find any records about dementors.

This ghostly creature does seem to be endemic to Britain.

It was already evening when we returned to the dormitory lounge. The eldest sister Angela happily told Erwin that there was finally less food at the door of Lyudmila's room.

"Since she's eating, it means there's nothing wrong with her, and we don't have to worry about her anymore." Erwin nodded.

He really doesn't have much energy to care about Ilvermorny's affairs right now.

Considering that his relationship with eldest sister Angela was pretty good, Erwin told her that he would be going out for the next few days.

"Oh, both of them are like this." Angela sighed.

"All?"

"The same goes for Viktor Krum." Angela explained: "Someone has apparated to take him back to Bulgaria to participate in Quidditch training and prepare for next year's Quidditch World Cup."

Personal pick-up and drop-off? It really is the treatment of a world-class star.

The next morning, Erwin teleported to the transfer station Noven subspace again. Surprisingly, at this time, he first tried to teleport to Hogsmeade.

Then it failed unexpectedly.

Sure enough, after what happened yesterday, the vigilance in Hogsmeade has been strengthened, and even a ban on disembodiment has been directly implemented.

Hogwarts can no longer be said to be the safest place because the power of the Ministry of Magic has penetrated too much. After all, the school's operating funds depend on funding from the Ministry of Magic.

So now, for Erwin, the place that can ensure absolute safety is this subspace with the upper and lower exits blocked by Dumbledore.

It is said to be a subspace, but it is very stable, and there will be no spatial conflicts due to the expansion of the Flamel Cabin.

Before, Erwin would rather go to more trouble and go back to the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts to open Flamel's Cabin. Essentially, this was because he was still somewhat resistant to subspace, because there was the power of "Norwin" here, and Erwin did not

I want to be too closely related to it.

After all, he might be in the dragon's great prophecy.

But now he has no choice. What kind of research he will do in the next year will basically have to be conducted in this subspace.

Next, Teleport, Diagon Alley, Flourish and Blotts Bookstore.

"Good morning." The female clerk still remembered Erwin whom she had met a few days ago.

"When will your manager come?" Erwin asked, glancing at the store where there were almost no customers.

"It should take another hour and a half. He usually comes quite late."

Then just wait. Erwin walked out of the bookstore and entered the ice cream shop opposite, ordering a drink and today's "Daily Prophet."

Sure enough, there was a report about the battle in Hogsmeade.

Seven or eight Aurors worked together but failed to capture the suspect, and even caused hundreds of villagers to be accidentally injured. Their unlucky team leader Kingsley Shacklebolt was punished by a pay cut and a demotion.

Erwin finally knew the name of the dark-skinned wizard.
