Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard
Chapter 20: Map Completed
Hagrid's hut.
For a giant, it is indeed a small room, as his head can almost touch the ceiling. But for a small person of 1.6 meters, the nearly 4-meter high ceiling is quite spacious.
All the utensils in the room were much larger than usual. The cup he used to drink water looked like a small bucket to Sainz, and the small bed he used to sleep on was like a small boat.
In the September weather, there is still a big stove in the house. What is the wizard's thinking?
For cooking? That's fine.
The room was poorly lit and smelled bad, with all kinds of animal materials hanging all over the walls. He also saw a bunch of white hair that was believed to be evidence that Hagrid was a rich man.
It was a bunch of long, smooth and white hair, hanging casually on the ceiling.
In Hagrid's words, "It's from the tail... I use it as a bandage when an animal is injured. It works great... it's very strong."
In the original track, two professors talked about the price of unicorn tail hair. One said it was ten Galleons for one strand, and the other said it was ten Galleons for a bundle.
Is it true that as permanent residents of the magical world, there would be such a huge difference in our perception of the value of the same thing?
Sainz is inclined to think both are right.
He thought that the same thing could be good or bad, and even if it was unicorn tail hair, there must be good and bad differences.
Ollivander had a point - not every tree can be made into a wand.
The principles of all things are the same. Similarly, not every unicorn tail hair can be made into a magic wand.
Further reasoning, not every unicorn tail hair contains powerful magic.
Let’s look at the difference between the two professors, Slughorn and Lupin.
The former pursues the enjoyment of life and requires the best daily necessities;
In contrast, Professor Lupin had a very miserable life after graduation. Even after he was hired as a professor at Hogwarts, his clothes were still patched.
The two people come into contact with completely different circles of life. Even if they buy the same pair of slippers, yours may cost seven dollars, while the other person's may cost seven thousand dollars.
Is there something wrong? Nothing wrong!
In any case, guarding a forbidden forest where he could get whatever he wanted, Hagrid's finances would definitely not be tight; but he still chose to live a hunting life similar to that of the Middle Ages.
All we can say is that this is indeed his nature. He does not seek luxury and is content with poverty.
I stayed in Hagrid's "hut" for a few hours, drank bitter gourd tea, tasted his rock cake, and completed the check-in task.
"It's chewy, and the taste is a little bland, but the layers are rich, it's very good." Sainz chewed the two-inch thick pancake with a crunchy texture like rice crust.
Although he concealed it very well and seemed as weak as an ordinary little wizard, he was actually not like that at all.
He didn't need to be reminded; he knew he could treat a full-grown Siberian tiger like a kitten. Don't ask him how he knew that.
Asking is scientific research.
He never dared to neglect the training of the Force, or the practice of magic body building. In essence, he was a person who was afraid of death, especially someone who had died once.
Deep down, he was not afraid of normal death from old age, but of sudden death.
In this wonderful world, there are still so many unknown things that we have not experienced, and so many beautiful things that are worth cherishing. If it were to suddenly die, wouldn’t we be so disappointed? ! !
Voldemort, I want you dead!!!
………………
As the sky was getting dark, Sainz declined Hagrid's offer of dinner and left resolutely.
The last stop of the map-running mission is the Whomping Willow.
When I looked at the tree from a distance in the morning, it looked like it had many branches and seemed to be bare without any leaves.
Now watching it up close, Sainz has to admit that he was wrong.
Its trunk is about 60 centimeters thick, and it splits into four main branches about five or six meters above the ground, all twisting like pythons.
The main branches branch out into more secondary branches, and in many places on the secondary branches there are seemingly unnecessary bends like human joints, and the secondary branches are hung with willow branches.
The branches of ordinary weeping willows are mostly very soft, hanging down as silky as a beautiful woman's hair, and sometimes even touching the ground.
This tree is different. Its willow branches are much shorter, while the other branches are much thicker, so it creates the illusion that it looks bare from a distance.
To be fair, its branches and leaves are still very lush.
Another difference from ordinary willow trees is the knots on the trunk and main branches.
People who don’t understand will see that this tree is so ugly!
If someone who understands it looks at it, he will see that every part of it is designed for fighting.
Those unnecessary bends and twists are all to confuse the opponent, just like a spring is much longer than it actually appears, the actual attack range of the Whomping Willow must be farther than it appears.
Trying to get closer, the thin branches of the willow tree began to sway, as if blown by a mountain breeze.
The method of using the Whomping Willow has already been told to everyone in the original trajectory. As long as you press on a knot on the main trunk of the tree, it will immediately calm down.
It’s easy to find out which one it is. Just try them one by one and you will find it eventually.
The passage it guards leads to a place outside the school - the Shrieking Shack.
Forget it, don’t be naughty. You just arrived at the school, so it’s better not to act as if you know everything.
Okay, the main map of Hogwarts is fully lit up, and the only things left are the Forbidden Forest and the interior of the Black Lake. Let’s upgrade them first and talk about it later.
"I have to practice the Disillusionment Charm in the next two days. The current invisibility effect is really not very good. This awkward invisibility effect cannot guarantee that I will not be discovered."
The Disillusionment Charm is an advanced spell, and is explained in detail in the Standard Sixth Level Spells. If Saienz hadn't bought all of them, it would have been a bit troublesome.
He went to the bookstore and searched for a long time, but there was no book that contained a true invisibility spell, nor was there any book that mentioned the invisibility spell.
There is no doubt that invisibility should exist. He remembered that once when Harry went to buy a book about monsters, the manager complained to him that they once bought a batch of "The Invisibility Book of Invisibility", but all the books turned invisible and disappeared, causing them to lose a lot of money.
Not only that, it seems that the Hogwarts library also has a dedicated invisible area.
At that time, the only books related to invisibility that could be found in bookstores were those about invisible beasts and invisibility cloaks.
Invisibility cloaks are also woven with the fur of invisible animals as the main material, and will gradually lose their invisibility effect over time.
As for why Harry's Invisibility Cloak always works perfectly?
Is that an invisibility cloak? That's the Three Sacred Treasures!!!
What to do if you don’t have an invisibility spell? Create your own!
Any aspiring wizard will take a common path - creating their own spells.
The basis for creating your own spells is to first develop a solid foundation.
He was not so arrogant as to think that his less than two months of experience in the wizarding world was enough to support him in safely creating a new spell.
Although many spells are created by accident by wizards who are not particularly good;
But he believed that there might be more people whose stories were not recorded and who died in remote corners due to their own ignorance and fearlessness.
After dinner, Sainz went to the kitchen to show his presence and made the elves very happy.
If you want to get something, you have to pay for it, not to mention that he wants to kidnap people in the future!
You should show your gratitude every now and then. This kind of free and beneficial thing should be persisted in for a long time.
House-elves did not appear out of thin air, they also had communities, got married and had children, and it was hard to say whether they would become adults by the time they graduated, but those cute little ones might be able to kidnap an entire family.
Think beautiful!
I had a great time with my classmates on Sunday and tried to persuade my overly excited roommate to stay at home in the evening.
"If I were you, I would go to bed right away. I don't want to be late for the first class after school. That would be a terrible experience..."
