Hogwarts doesn't need a savior

Chapter 46: There is no standard answer to magic

“It means hidden and unpredictable risks.”

While the two were at a loss, Doris had already realized the value of the change in nature.

If Percy and Hermione were scholars, she was more of a duelist.

She already had the picture in her mind.

The two wizards met on a narrow road, and it was difficult to tell who was better, and both were exhausted.

At this time, one side portrayed the Rune of Fire, ready to fight to the death.

But when the opponent defended with all his might, he suddenly discovered that the real effect of this fire was to heal wounds.

As one gains, the other loses, and the balance of victory and defeat will be completely tilted.

Doris was excited. This kind of magic was perfect for her.

"Doris is right. Every change is an extension of the unpredictable, which means unknown risks to your enemies. Slytherin... Sorry, I forgot this is not a class."

Lynn subconsciously wanted to give Doris extra points, but halfway through her words she remembered that this was a private tutoring session and smiled awkwardly.

Dolly didn't care at all, and just asked excitedly: "Professor, what other changes have runes undergone?"

“Unfortunately, this is an unknown area, and my exploration is very superficial.” Lin En shook his head and took out three exquisite metal runes and placed them in front of the three people. “This is also one of the reasons why I designed them.”

"Professor, please forgive me, I don't know what this has to do with the change of properties." Percy picked up the rune, looked at it up and down, left and right, his eyes full of confusion.

"Percy, you haven't tried to create new spells like Bill, right?" Lynn asked with a smile instead of rushing to answer.

Percy was a little embarrassed, but nodded, "Yes, Professor, I haven't tried it."

"I didn't mean to say that this is a bad thing, Percy. On the contrary, you are right." Lynn said encouragingly, "Creating spells requires a lot of experiments, and such experiments are quite dangerous. It's just that some young wizards are fearless."

"I understand, Professor!" Hermione was excited after hearing the hidden meaning. "These runes are the materials for experimenting with the changes in the properties of runes! They are not just portable items used to activate rune magic!"

"That's it, Hermione." Lynn said calmly, "Changing the magic nodes and paths of the Rune is simple to say, but you have all practiced it, so you should be very clear about the power of the Rune."

He looked at Doris calmly.

This courageous little witch had secretly tried rune magic without runes in her last practical class, and as expected, she failed.

Although it was just the safest Feihu, if Lin En hadn't taken timely action to resolve the magic shock, she would have suffered for at least a few hours.

Noticing Lynn's gaze, Doris lowered her head in embarrassment and obediently picked up the rune.

"The demise of rune magic in the Middle Ages was partly due to Muggle witch-hunting, but the real core was its danger."

Lynn did not sensationalize, he simply told the truth.

Wrong nodes, paths, or even slightly deviated magic application techniques are just a failure in casting for conventional magic, but in the context of Rune magic, it means loss of control.

For most wizards, losing control means injury or death.

Over time, dangerous magic was replaced by safe magic, and runes became a text for recording magic.

These are simple words in the history of magic, but they are also living history and bloody lessons.

The three of them looked at the runes on their hands in silence.

They understood Lynn's intention and gained a new understanding of the learning props that they had used many times.

It is not only a shortcut on the road to learning and a flexible casting medium in duels, but also a "safety valve" carefully designed by Lynn.

From nothing to something, these small metal plates are more important and precious than they imagined.

"Don't think too highly of me. I'm just doing my duty as a teacher." Lynn said sarcastically, "Otherwise Dumbledore wouldn't have promoted the transformation of this course. You should pay more attention to the experiment itself."

"But professor, how should we do the experiment?" Doris asked.

Lin En raised his hand and motioned for the three to try.

Hermione was the first to input her magic.

"This is……"

For just a moment, she was stunned.

What appeared before her eyes was no longer the path of the Kenaz runes that she was already very familiar with. The dense magic nodes were almost like a dazzling starry sky, with only a few of them being the brightest.

That was also the node she had been using.

"Are these magic nodes?!" Percy said in disbelief, "In that class..."

"The runes we learned in class only have the most basic nodes and paths. But these three are different. If you want to try real rune magic, this is the right way."

"So many nodes, try one by one?" Doris felt her scalp tingling.

"Of course not. It requires your study and in-depth thinking." Lin En smiled and pulled Doris, pressing her hand on the rune, "I'll demonstrate it once."

The silver-white metal plate lit up, and countless nodes were projected into the air, and then they were annihilated one after another, with only one remaining.

"Most of the nodes are meaningless, just overflowing magic." Lin En's voice was particularly clear. "The real variables are all around the most important nodes, and each has its own meaning."

Before he finished speaking, dots of light lit up one after another, building a new passage with a structure the three had never seen before.

Then, a huge fireball condensed.

"This is... fascinating, Professor..."

Doris' eyes became blurred, and she was astonished as she experienced the spell-casting process herself.

The fireball made a burning "crackling" sound, but transmitted soft waves.

There is no standard answer to magic, only change itself is the only constant.

......

......

Before I knew it, the sun set and night fell.

Three talented young wizards experienced the unique charm of Rune magic.

This is a brand new subject, which completely breaks their previous understanding of magic. Just as Lin En said, this is a new starting point.

Doris and Percy completely dispelled their previous doubts and were amazed at her understanding.

This clever little witch has a keen sense of knowledge.

For the entire afternoon, Lynn just sat there, watching them try with anticipation.

From the identification of nodes, to the repetition of magic paths, to the condensation of healing fire.

The three talented people interacted with each other, looking for answers through intense communication and discussion.

In the evening, three bright fireballs gathered above the classroom, illuminating the sweaty faces due to concentration and fatigue.

"Well done, you are better than I thought." Lin En did not hesitate to praise, "But this is just the beginning."

"We understand, Professor, what really matters is discovering new changes and finding more magic," Percy said meticulously.

"I will try with you. Here, we are not only teachers and students, but also partners in exploring mysteries."

Lin En smiled and stretched out his hand, his fair palm showing no sign of injury at all.

Three hands of different sizes were placed one after another, and different gazes were focused on Lin En.

Hermione was respected and looked forward to.

Percy was serious and eager.

Doris made no secret of her longing and ambition.

......

......

The messy classroom was tidy again, and the moonlight sprinkled on the windowsill.

Just as Lin En was thinking about whether to take them to the kitchen or the cafeteria, Doris pointed at the target in the corner and asked, "Professor, you said before that after mastering the fourth level of magic, you can see the next level, right?"

Before Lynn could speak, she had already pointed her wand at the target.

"The flames are blazing!"

Following the girl's clear voice, the majestic fire dragon rushed straight to the bull's eye without any unnecessary movements.

"boom--"

Sparks flew and heat surged.

A striking "4" appears on the sign.

Her smile was reserved and proud, and it was obvious that she had planned it in advance.

She was a step faster than Percy.

Chapter 47 Level Magic

Doris Foley was a true Slytherin.

Proud but not arrogant, ambitious but not blind.

In the process of pursuing her goals, she always adheres to her principles and bottom line.

There are very few Slytherins like this, which makes Lynn admire him very much.

"It looks like I'll have to take you to the kitchen to find the house elves for dinner tonight."

He half-jokingly said as he saw her skilled spellcasting movements and the flames that took speed and precision to new levels.

Doris giggled and jumped up to him: "Now I can see level 5 magic, right?"

"Indeed, I will demonstrate it today." Lynn drew out his wand, "Percy, you have to work hard too."

"I understand, Professor." Percy nodded heavily, his eyes serious and focused.

He has already mastered a lot of combat or non-combat third-level magic, and is considered the best in his class, but he has yet to make a breakthrough.

Now that Doris has taken the lead, he feels more pressure and motivation.

"I've said before that magic from level one to level four is the accumulation of quantitative changes, but level four is the beginning of change." Lin En raised his wand, and the targets fell one by one on the open space in front of the three people. "In other words, level four is a link between the previous and the next."

He looked at Doris and said, "It's more precise, smoother, and more controllable. This is a great improvement and a new beginning."

Doris was overjoyed at the praise and raised her chin proudly.

"Level five is to go one step further on this basis. Not only can you control magic, but you can also change it so that it appears in the way you want it to, just like now."

Lynn's wand swayed deftly with the shape of his hands, as if dancing in the air.

Suddenly, a faint red light appeared on the tip of the staff.

The three people's eyes were focused here.

In an instant, the tiny specks of light expanded at an unimaginable speed.

The classroom turned into a sea of ​​fiery red.

A surging heat wave hits us in the face. Although it is already autumn, it seems as if the scorching heat has returned.

When the three opened their eyes again, what they saw before them was no longer pure fire.

It was a male lion with a red body and a faint white hue, like a ferocious beast in mythology, with muscles like cast steel and iron, and every tendon and line was extremely clear.

The bloody mouth was not open, but a gap could be seen faintly, revealing sharp teeth, silently demonstrating.

"Is this really... a fire spell?" Doris's pride and smugness disappeared instantly, and she was momentarily distracted. "Can I do this?"

"Of course, Doris, your achievements must be more than this." Lin En walked to the side of the fire lion and said with a smile, "The essence of fifth-level magic is the change of form. This is the process from quantitative change to qualitative change. Watch carefully!"

At the pointing of the wand, the crouching fire lion immediately stood up and leaped up, as if it was chasing prey on the grassland.

It came in a flash, even faster than Doris's previous spell.

"boom--"

Amid a deafening roar, the seemingly indestructible target turned into countless pieces and scattered all over the ground.
