Harry doesn't want to be a wizard, he wants to be a superhero

Chapter 57 Electromagnetic Gun
Turning the Daily Prophet over, Harry continued reading.

The first piece of news he saw caught his attention.

"The latest report on the illegal entry incident at Gringotts:
Investigations into the break-in at Gringotts on July 31st, generally attributed to an unknown Dark wizard, continue.

The goblins at Gringotts reiterated today that nothing had been stolen. The underground vault searched by the intruders had in fact been emptied earlier in the day.

A Gringotts goblin spokesperson said this afternoon: "We have no information on what is stored in the vault, and we ask that you do not interfere in this matter."

Harry remembered that Ron had mentioned on the train that someone had attempted to rob Gringotts, but Ron hadn't mentioned a specific date.

It now appeared that the date Gringotts had been robbed was the same as the date he and Hagrid had gone there.

He remembered that day Hagrid took out a special package that contained a powerful alchemical creation.

He tried to ask Hagrid about the package, but Hagrid refused.

Could it be that the alchemical artifact is the item the thief wants to steal?

Harry decided to test the waters, "Hagrid, it seems we were in Diagon Alley on the day of the Gringotts break-in."

Hagrid, who couldn't meet Harry's eyes, pretended not to hear the words.

It is indeed difficult for a half-blood giant to hide things. Apart from the careless Ron, even Hermione could see that something was wrong with Hagrid.

Based on Hagrid's reaction, the alchemical artifact was most likely what the thief was looking for.

………………

Ron returned to the Gryffindor common room, probably to play chess with Neville and the others, while Harry and Hermione went to the library as usual.

Harry is currently studying fifth grade content, including Charms, Herbology, Transfiguration and other subjects. Even for him, it is difficult to fully master them in a short period of time.

As he read more textbooks, Harry discovered that a lot of knowledge was not recorded in the textbooks, such as Legilimency, the three unforgivable curses, any kind of ancient magic and strategically significant potion formulas.

He speculated that this knowledge was so dangerous that it was sealed away like the restricted section of the Kamar-Taj library.

It just so happens that Hogwarts' library also has a restricted section where a lot of dangerous knowledge is located.

If you want to obtain more precious knowledge of the wizarding world, you must go to the restricted books section.

However, ordinary students are not allowed to enter the restricted book area and special permission is required, such as the approval of a teacher.

Harry now has two choices. The first is to use the Disillusionment Charm combined with the Invisibility Cloak to read secretly. This method can be performed now, but it is easy to be discovered.

He needs to read in the restricted area for a long time, and he can't do it secretly all the time, so this method is not feasible.

The second way was to ask a professor for permission to enter the restricted section, which Harry preferred.

He was very confident that he could get approval from a certain professor. He had heard that Professor McGonagall loved Quidditch, and if he showed outstanding Quidditch talent, he would most likely win her favor.

Coupled with his proficiency in Transfiguration, he should be able to gain the approval of that elegant lady.

Even if he couldn't get approval from Professor McGonagall, Harry still had Snape and Flitwick to get it.

Especially Professor Snape, because of his mother, this big bat with a cold appearance but a warm heart is the easiest to deal with.

After making his decision, Harry put the Restricted Section aside for the time being, waiting until next week's class to get Professor McGonagall's approval. Next, he turned his attention to Hedwig.

At this time, Hedwig was still calculating the magical equation of electromagnetic force every moment, which is the easiest to master among the four fundamental forces.

Based on electromagnetic force, it is definitely possible to create a lot of powerful magic. Harry now has a preliminary idea.

The most basic manifestation of electromagnetic force is undoubtedly the creation of magnetic field.

Steel can be controlled by relying on magnetic fields, but this is the simplest way and will waste a lot of energy. It is better to use telekinesis directly.

He decided to rely on the Lorentz force acceleration principle to instantly build a strong magnetic field and create a large number of directionally moving charges.

As long as a metal projectile appears in the magnetic field, it will be ejected by the powerful electromagnetic force.

The stronger the magnetic field, the faster the projectile will fly. According to Hedwig's calculations, if he can successfully construct a magnetic field, the initial speed of the fired projectile can easily reach several times the speed of sound!
Harry called this move the Railgun!

However, in addition to the magnetic field, there is another point that needs to be considered if we want to completely complete the railgun.

Ordinary metal will melt quickly when it rubs against the air at high speeds, and the melted metal will undoubtedly not cause the necessary damage.

However, this problem is easy to solve. Metal bullets engraved with Uru alloy or vibranium bullets can easily overcome this problem.

Even different projectiles can produce different effects.

Harry ordered Hedwig to call up a large number of spellbooks on his retina, picked up a piece of draft paper and began to draw the envisioned magic circle.

As long as the railgun is completed, his attack power will be greatly improved.

If he were to lose control of his magic and devote all his strength to building a magnetic field, he could even destroy a starship with one blow!
Just as Harry was concentrating on studying, a soft body pressed against him. Hermione looked at the magic circle on the draft paper and asked curiously, "Harry, what is this?"

Harry's eyes moved slightly, and when he thought about his plans for Hermione's future, a smile as warm as spring appeared on his face:
"Come, come, Hermione, I'll teach you. This is an ancient magic circle, a different system from modern magic."

Raise a loli from childhood, and let her work to pay off debts when she grows up!
As expected, the Supreme Mage who worked as a hard-working worker every day is already out!
Soon, the first weekend at Hogwarts passed without any incident.

Harry spent the past two days in the library, researching new magic and teaching Hermione the Kamar-Taj magic system.

Hermione studied very hard and made rapid progress. She had already mastered more than a hundred runes.

During these two days, Harry successfully created a magic circle structure that can convert magic power into electromagnetic force based on the magic circle structure of Bossart's Thunder.

That night, Harry watched Ron and the others quarreling like an old father. Dean and Ron were arguing about which sport was the most popular.

It is obvious that there is a cognitive difference between Dean, who is born in a Muggle family, and Ron, who comes from a pure-blood wizard family. Dean thinks the most popular sport is football, while Ron thinks it is Quidditch.

In the end, neither of them could convince the other, so they went to find Harry, who convinced both of them, and let him decide the winner.

Harry yawned and didn't answer their question. He thought it was quite interesting to watch the two children quarreling, so he decided to play a trick on them and let them quarrel.

He glanced at the sky outside the window, jumped off the bed and walked out of the dormitory, turning around and reminding: "I'm going out for a while, don't worry."

It's time to arrange a loan package for Mr. Filch!
