The years of welding at Hogwarts

Pooh! nausea!

Chapter 38 Which company has the best welding technology?

If Noah knew what Hermione was thinking, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged.

The notebook in his hand was something he had picked up from the bookshelf in Snape's office last night.

Although there are more black magics recorded in it, there must be at least twenty of them if not thirty.

However, black magic is a very general definition. If we really want to make a detailed distinction, we can divide it into multiple levels according to the degree of damage it causes.

The highest level among them is the legendary first of the three unforgivable curses - Avada Kedavra.

The black magic recorded in this notebook should be regarded as the most inferior kind of curse among all the black magic.

The most vicious magic among them is the Gut-pulling Curse. Compared with the Shadowless Magic, this spell is only one-tenth as dangerous as the Shadowless Magic.

After all, the Divine Edge Shadowless Curse cannot be healed without a counter-curse, and the person who is cursed will bleed to death.

The Evisceration Curse can only pull out a person's intestines at most, which is not a big problem in the wizarding world with all kinds of unreasonable medical magic.

The disease can be cured by simply stuffing the intestines back in and then repairing them.

Well, the scene might be a little disgusting.

But it is true that this thing is very useful. When Snape cooks, he uses this spell to clean the internal organs of ingredients.

Speaking of this matter, Noah couldn't help but think of another question.

It is said that walnuts can nourish the brain, but can walnuts caught by the door still nourish the brain?

In the same way, black magic can affect the mind, so will eating food processed with black magic also affect the mind?

If you don't understand, just ask. Waiting online, it's urgent.

A food cleansing spell like the Gut-Eating Curse can be considered as the "top-level" black magic recorded in the notebook. As for some other evil curses recorded in it, they are even less up to standard.

Therefore, the notebook in his hand is not considered to be restricted for young wizards.

Well, it can be called an enlightenment book at best.

In the end, Hermione gave up arguing with Noah about the nature of magic, a question she couldn't answer at the moment.

As a curious little witch, her attention soon drifted elsewhere.

"That magic you just cast! Is it a variation of the clear water spring?!"

"That one?" Noah was stunned for a moment. "It's the same principle as the fluorescent spell last night. You can use it if you have hands."

Hermione and Shirley both wanted to hit someone after hearing this.

Both of them had tried to learn wandless spellcasting, but one took a month to learn and the other only studied it for half a day, but the final results were the same.

I haven't learned anything yet.

Although I know that this kind of high-end spellcasting technique is quite valuable magical knowledge, and although the magic world's sense of patents is not as strong as that of the non-magical world, it still seems very presumptuous and impolite to ask about it casually.

But Hermione couldn't help but wonder how Noah did it.

She was a little shy and embarrassed to speak, but her thirst for new knowledge eventually overcame her weakness. "Um, Noah, can you..."

Noah stroked his smooth chin without even a single stubble.

"You want to learn this, right?

If you have any questions, I can teach you that this is not something worth hiding."

Welding with bare hands is just the most basic operation in Kamar-Taj, and Noah had no intention of hiding it.

On the contrary, he hopes to share the magical knowledge he brought from the Marvel world with his friends.

Building a strong enough team would obviously be extremely helpful to his plan.

So let alone keeping it secret, he wished that Hermione could learn all the Kamar-Taj spells he had memorized, and become someone who could punch Vishanti the Trinity and kick Dormammu the Dark Dimension.

In this way, he can live a life of luxury under the protection of Miss Know-It-All, or rather, a happy life of eating and waiting to die.

Seeing that several people including Draco and Neville were looking at him expectantly, Noah pondered how to explain this not-so-difficult basic spellcasting technique to them based on the principles of the magic system of this world.

Although the magic wand is very important to wizards in the European and American magical world, it is not everything that wizards use to cast spells.

In essence, they are just a magic stabilizer, a prop to help wizards control the magic in their bodies.

After thinking for a while, Noah suddenly asked Hermione, "Have you studied computers?"

Although she didn't understand the connection between magic and computers, two things that were completely unrelated, Hermione still answered truthfully.

"I know a little bit. My father once enrolled me in a programming training class."

Big dog owner.

Even in technologically advanced countries, a family that had access to a computer in 1991 could already be considered a modern family.

"It's good that you know programming, but what do you think is the relationship between spells and magic?"

Before Hermione could answer, Draco beside her quickly answered, "I know! Magic is a treasure chest, and spells and casting gestures are the keys to open this treasure chest!"

Neville next to him had a confused and daunting expression on his face.

"There's nothing wrong with this understanding, but we can explain it in more modern terms. We can think of magic as a program that can modify the rules of the world, and magic power..."

"What do you think is the relationship between magic power and the magic we perform?"

Hermione looked thoughtful. "Magic power is the basis for performing magic, so we can regard it as... the source code of the program?"

Not only Neville, but also Draco and Shirley had the expression of an old man on the subway checking his cell phone.

Who can tell them what a program is and what source code is?

Noah ignored the other three. His main goal now was to explain the principles of wandless spellcasting to Hermione in a language that Muggles could understand.

As for the other three people, he would think of another set of arguments that they could accept and understand, and then teach them again.

"Yes, casting spells by directly mobilizing magic power is like a programmer writing programs directly in machine language."

"This is a very difficult operation, so in order to reduce the difficulty of wizards casting spells, spells and gestures were invented."

"In simple terms, you can think of spells and gestures as a magical version of a compiler."

Hermione's eyes gradually brightened. "It means that if your level is high enough, you can abandon this so-called compiler and directly use machine language..."

"This is called wandless spellcasting."

Noah opened his hands and drew a circle in the air. Golden lines appeared out of thin air and extended in the direction of his fingers, forming a golden circle with sparks flying in the air.

He twisted his hand suddenly, and a square that was also emitting sparks appeared outside the prototype of the magic circle.

A large number of lines extend within the circle in the center of the magic circle.

As Noah's gestures changed, the outer square split into another square of the same size, which was rotated forty-five degrees and then nested with the original square.

A complex irregular polygonal shape emerged inside the main magic circle.

Seven small circular magic circles emerged silently, guarding the main magic circle in the center like seven stars accompanying the moon.

At this point, a complex magic circle composed of lines, circles, and squares appeared before everyone's eyes.

Snapped!

Noah placed his hands on the magic circle and snapped his fingers. The complicated magic circle gradually disintegrated into sparks and disappeared bit by bit in front of everyone.

Draco and Neville's mouths almost dropped to the table.

What is this operation?

"This is just a basic magic circle. It's not difficult to achieve this."

"But there is a prerequisite. You must be able to sense the magic power in your body. I suggest that you start by casting a large number of spells and feeling the flow of magic power during the casting process."

"At the beginning, you don't have to deliberately pursue wandless casting. The wand, as an auxiliary controller, can help you feel the magic flowing in your body."

Noah smiled mysteriously and said, "Remember, experience it with your heart."

"Feel it with your heart..." Neville repeated in a low voice.

In fact, he only understood the last sentence of the entire conversation between Noah and Hermione.

"magic

It is a very idealistic existence," Noah stretched out his hand and pointed at Neville's chest, "as long as you firmly believe that you can do it, it will respond to your expectations."

"So, be more confident, Neville."

The second half of the sentence that Noah didn't say was, you are the future Hufflepuff Sword Master.

“Believe that you can do it…”

Looking down at his own hands, although Neville still couldn't understand Noah's explanation of wandless casting, the cowardice and confusion in his eyes faded a little.

He was brought up by a very strict grandmother.

Growing up, his family had always treated him as a Squib who couldn't do magic, which made Neville develop a timid character and a serious lack of self-confidence.

but……

"I believe in your potential. You are actually a seriously underestimated genius, Neville."

Noah looked at Neville sincerely, "The power of faith turns into courage and turns the impossible into the possible. This is a wizard."

After a lot of persuasion from Noah, Neville finally had firm confidence and decided to try out the Luminescent Spell that he had secretly practiced in the dormitory all night after seeing Noah's operation last night.

Just as his hand was about to touch the wand on the table, a tiny golden spark burst out from his fingertips in an instant.

Noah narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched the scene in front of him.

As expected of a sword master, quite interesting.

Chapter 39: You, Quirrell, are a professor, can he teach?

The next morning, Slytherin and Ravenclaw colleges jointly welcomed the freshmen's long-awaited first practical application course.

That is, they themselves think, the courses that require waving a magic wand in the classroom.

All the little wizards who didn't know the truth looked very expectant. Even when there were still ten minutes left before class, the classroom was already full of people.

Even though this classroom doesn't look like a classroom at all——

The classroom was filled with a strong smell of garlic. Fearing that the students had not marinated the garlic well enough, the thoughtful Professor Quirinus Quirrell sealed all the doors and windows tightly.

Since it had not been exposed to sunlight for a long time, in addition to the smell of garlic, there was also a damp feeling similar to the return of the south wind in the air.

The walls seemed to be emitting a musty smell, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

But this did not affect the enthusiasm of the little wizards.

Looking at Hermione sitting upright and looking at the podium expectantly, Noah couldn't bear to tell her the truth for a moment.

After all, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts has been so difficult, so some things should not be exposed~

Ever since Voldemort failed in his application for the position of professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts and shamelessly cursed the position in anger, so many professors have been replaced year after year.

The quality of the teaching staff varies greatly, and each new professor has his or her own teaching methods.

This resulted in Hogwarts students receiving education on this course in a sporadic and unsystematic manner.

At the same time, due to the sudden death or accidental serious injury of the previous professor, they were unable to hand over the teaching progress well.

The next professor has no idea where his predecessor taught.

So the students' learning progress is also in chaos.

For example, in Cedric's fourth grade, their Defense Against the Dark Arts professor suddenly died just as their second grade began.

For the entire semester, due to the suspension of classes, they did not learn anything related to Defense Against the Dark Arts.

When they were in their third year, the new professor started teaching directly from the third grade content.

Faced with such a situation, Dumbledore was also helpless.

Look at Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, their Defense Against the Dark Arts professorship is a stable job that everyone wants to get.

Look at Hogwarts, they change every year and are all disposable.

If life could still be lived, I wouldn't be crazy enough to come to Hogwarts to teach this course.

Even you, Quirrell, are a professor now.

Can he teach?
