Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 30 Illusion Curse

  The Gryffindor common room in the afternoon was crowded with students, and everyone was sitting on the sofa chatting.

The sofa seats in the lounge are limited, there are too many people, crowded and noisy, Albert has no idea of ​​staying in the common room, he posted the schedule of the first-year freshmen on the bulletin board, and put the camera and photos After returning to the dormitory, he went directly to the library on the fifth floor of the castle.

   There are no other students in the library, and yes, even Ravenclaw students, few will step into the library before the official start of school.

  In the library, there is only Mrs. Irma Pince, the administrator, who sits alone behind the counter and reads quietly,

   When Albert walked to the counter, Mrs. Pince raised her head, as if a little surprised that someone would come to the library at this time.

   "Excuse me, ma'am. I'm looking for some books on spells. Do you know which shelf they are on?" Albert asked softly.

  Actually, Albert can find it by himself, but there are a lot of books here, which is time-consuming, laborious and unpleasant. Asking the librarian directly is the fastest way.

  Mrs. Pince glanced at Albert, pointed to a row of wooden bookshelves and said, "Area C, the fifth bookshelf."

  Albert looked in the direction of the other party's finger, thanked him, and then walked towards the bookshelf in area c. His gaze paused, and he stopped for a moment on the rope leading to the restricted area, before continuing to walk in. In the fifth bookshelf, there are many books about spells.

   When Albert reached out and brushed the spine of the book, his fingers couldn't help but pause, because two tasks popped up on his own panel.

  Reading maniac.

  As you who like to read books, how can you miss the largest magic library in the whole of Britain?

   Accumulatively read 100 1-inch-thick books,

   Reward Master 3 kinds of magic at random and upgrade them to level 3.

  Currently: 0/100

   Magic restricted area.

  The restricted area of ​​Hogwarts hides a lot of secrets. As a magic lover, how can you miss it? If you can borrow a few books from it to study carefully, it will help to improve your magic level.

  Successfully persuade five professors to allow you to check out five books from the Restricted Section.

   Bonus skill level plus 1 level.

  Currently: 0/5

   In other words, both missions are sinkholes!

  It is not easy to read a hundred books, and it is 1 inch thick. Does this mean that he has to read a hundred brick books?

   smashing can kill people.

  This mission can’t be completed in a short while, and it can be finished within three years, thanks to Merlin’s protection.

  The second task is even more tricky. It is not easy to get notes from the professors in the restricted section.

   Moreover, it is even more difficult to obtain signed notes from five professors separately.

  In Albert's image, the easiest one may be Gilderoy Lockhart.

  However, the difficulty is high, and the rewards are also rich. The skill level is increased by 1, which is much more powerful than skill points.

  Not thinking about these tasks yet, Albert got rid of distracting thoughts and pulled out a spell book. The name of this book is "Selected Spells of the Eighteenth Century".

  He opened the catalog and counted, there were 33 kinds of spells recorded on it, each of which recorded in detail the inventor of the spell, how to use the spell correctly, and what significance its invention brought...

  After reading the catalogue, Albert lost interest in the book. He didn't find the Disillusionment Charm in the catalogue.

  Although the other spells are good, they are temporarily useless for Albert now. Learning these spells requires a lot of time and energy, or using the stored experience pool.

  Although there is still a lot of experience in the experience pool, Albert doesn't want to use it.

  Put "Anthology of Spells in the Eighteenth Century" back on the bookshelf, and Albert pulled out another copy of "Spell Achievement".

  Unfortunately, the book does not introduce the method of casting the illusion spell, but only introduces some spell attempts.

  However, from the information provided above, Albert found relevant records of the Phantasma Charm in "Anthology of Spells in the Nineteenth Century".

   This is undoubtedly good news.

  Albert sat at the desk in the library holding "Anthology of Spells in the Nineteenth Century", opened the book and read it carefully.

  The invention of the illusion spell was inspired by chameleons. The spell can make people blend into the surrounding environment to achieve the effect of invisibility.

   It is not easy to be discovered when a clever wizard uses the Illusion Charm, but it is difficult to hide it from others because the body cannot blend into the surroundings, which makes people feel inexplicably abrupt.

   While Albert was concentrating on reading about the Disillusionment Curse, he was pulled away from the chair. He looked up and found that the other party was the Ravenclaw girl he had met in the auditorium that morning.

  As if aware of Albert's gaze, the other party also looked up, nodded slightly to Albert, and returned his attention to the book.

   "As expected of Ravenclaw." Albert muttered in a low voice, continued to read the precautions for the Disillusionment spell, and prepared to find a place to practice.

   Next, what needs to be done is to find the solution to the illusion spell.

  Although the duration of the illusion spell will not be too long, if you don't master the method of breaking the spell, you may need to wait for the effect of the spell to disappear before it can automatically appear. This is not a good idea.

   There is no relevant record at the end of the spell, but Albert found the manifestation spell in "Spell Achievement".

Albert took "Anthology of Spells in the Nineteenth Century" and went to Mrs. Pince to borrow the book. He picked up a stone outside the castle as a target for practice. Use it on yourself.

  Just as Albert was considering where to go to practice the spell, the Weasley twins and Lee Jordan appeared in the hallway, panting.

   "Where did you go at noon?" Albert looked at the three and asked.

   "Fifth floor, mirror." George was out of breath and couldn't even speak clearly.

   "Where does that passage lead to?" Albert asked.

   "Outside the castle, let's go to Hogsmeade." Fred's face was filled with excitement. On the first day they came to Hogwarts, they discovered a secret passage leading outside the school.

   Albert raised his eyebrows and said, "So... how many hours did you play in Hogsmeade before you came back?"

   "No, that secret passage is very long, we walked for at least an hour."

   "You guys...are amazing!" Albert managed to squeeze out the words. It would be a torment for him to walk for an hour.

  After all, as a salted fish, you can sit on the sofa and read a book, why do you have to work hard to drill into the secret passage, and it takes two hours to come and go.

   Why bother?

   "This is my achievement." Albert raised the book in his hand and said, "I borrowed it from the library."

   "You found the spell." Fred realized what Albert was referring to.

   "Uh, I found it." Albert admired Fred's wit a little bit, "However, it is a bit difficult to master this spell. If you want to learn it, you need to be mentally prepared."
