Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Author Bai Linshuo's latest work, "Hogwarts Summoning Guide," is exclusively published on Cola Novels!

Bai Lin was already used to all kinds of time-space passages, and even quite familiar with them. He was mentally prepared for situations where the exit was in mid-air, or even if he encountered time-space turbulence in the passage and was directly shattered. The scenario of falling from the sky as soon as he passed through was child's play.

As expected, he chased after the octopus phantom from afar. When he emerged from the flowing spacetime tunnel, he saw blue skies, white clouds, flowers, and green willows outside. Suddenly, his feet lost their footing. He instinctively tried to use his chaotic energy to stabilize himself, but found that he felt nothing at all. The world spun around him, and he fell to the ground.

"Ouch! Holy crap!" Bai Lin seemed to have fallen on someone. Fortunately, the exit wasn't very high. Although his shoulders and back ached, he was fine.

Turning around, Bai Lin screamed in fright, because the person he had hit was no stranger—his friend Song Wenyu. The other man, however, wasn't surprised to see him; he simply rolled his eyes, as if to say, "I knew it was you."

"WTF! Bai Lin, get the hell out of here, you're crushing your dad!" Song Wenyu shouted in alarm.

Bai Lin quickly stood up and helped his friend up.

Song Wenyu was the same height as Bai Lin and had a sunny and handsome appearance. The problem wasn't that his appearance scared Bai Lin, but that Song Wenyu wasn't his friend in the "Harry Potter" magical world, but rather his best friend from Earth before he first traveled there, someone from the same university and dormitory.

Bai Lin looked around. Yes, it was the provincial architecture university in the east where he used to study. The familiar campus, the familiar grove of trees. He and Song Wenyu used to come here to relax after playing ball, lying in the shade of the trees, enjoying the breeze and chatting. It was a very relaxing and carefree time.

"Director Wu was asking you yesterday why you've been late for school for two days..." Song Wenyu rubbed the spot that was sore from being pressed, while looking left and right, as if searching for where Bai Lin had just been hiding.

Bai Lin was taken aback and subconsciously touched his pocket. Inside was a cell phone, the one he had brought with him before he transmigrated. He took it out and saw that the battery was only 10%, but the date was clearly displayed as September 3, 2022.

Bai Lin calculated the days; in this world, he had only been gone for about 7 days!

Seeing his stunned expression, Song Wenyu rolled her eyes, grabbed him, and dragged him to find the counselor. She nagged like a mother hen, saying that he had gone too far and the consequences would be serious. If his grades weren't high enough, he would have a hard time getting a diploma. She also said that the school had become stricter and stricter in recent years. Bai Lin didn't listen to a word she said.

While his phone still had some battery left, he quickly called his biological parents, then his relatives and friends, until the battery was completely drained. Only then did he realize that this really was his original world, and that he had traveled back in time!

Instead of going to the counselor, he ran to the dormitory and borrowed Song Wenyu's computer to search for information.

With the help of the advanced internet in his original world, he actually found the news about the day he traveled through time. Although it was just text, he roughly understood the situation. The news said that someone saw a little girl fall onto the tracks at the station and was rescued by a young man, but the young man was nowhere to be found, and everyone around thought it was a hallucination.

Bai Lin scratched his head, thought about what he had seen and heard on the planet R'lyeh, and deduced that his original world was probably a parallel space of the magical world, possibly a space dungeon created by the gods. When he traveled through time, his body was "taken over" by the rules of spacetime, and when he traveled back, his body was "back up" again, just like a character in an online game.

He looked at his flesh-and-blood hands and fell into a brief moment of contemplation. Could it be that the world he lived in was originally a game world?

Questioning the origin of the world is not what he cares about most right now. What he cares about more is that he arrived in Gracua before him and personally witnessed that giant octopus phantom entering this world.

The world is vast, where can Bai Lin find Grakua? This is a serious problem. Although he doesn't know the difference in the speed of time flow in different worlds, every second wasted increases the danger to Yan Nishuang, Catherine, and the others. The thought that they might become monsters of the ancient gods and that he would have to end their lives with his own hands makes Bai Lin feel heartbroken.

He suddenly stood up, startling Song Wenyu who was next to him. At this moment, the other two roommates also returned one after another, and everyone felt that Bai Lin was acting strangely.

Bai Lin had no time for reminiscing. He needed to immediately ascertain the power system of this world before he could devise a plan to find Grakua and return to the magical world to save Yan Nishuang and the others. As for his nostalgia for his original world and his love for his family and friends here, Bai Lin had to put them aside. Besides, since Grakua could open a spacetime portal to this place, Bai Lin could find a way as well.

"Clear water like a spring," Bai Lin chanted, pointing to an empty water glass beside him. However, no clear water appeared; there was no magical energy generated by his thoughts, and no water elements gathered in the air.

Seeing his serious expression, his roommates were taken aback at first, then burst into laughter. They all thought he was engrossed in watching Harry Potter. Song Wenyu even shouted at him with a laugh, "Avada Kedavra, eating a melon!"

Of course, no green death energy emanated from Song Wenyu's hand. Bai Lin ignored them and recited a few more low-level incantations, basically confirming that this world had neither a system of order and chaos nor a system of magic.

Bai Lin rushed out of the dormitory on his own, went to the corridor outside, and started practicing Tai Chi, which once again attracted a crowd of onlookers.

Ignoring the pointing and whispering of his classmates on the same floor, Bai Lin diligently searched for "qi sensation".

That feeling can be traced back to the fragments of Heian-kyo history, the feeling found in swordsmanship. Unlike the systems of magic and faction power, when Minamoto no Yorimitsu and others release sword energy, they rely on the power of the main god they worship, but the foundation is still their ability to convert essence into "true energy". This originates from the ancient martial arts of the East and is similar to the martial arts that Hakurin obtained.

Before transmigrating to the magical world, Bai Lin, although skilled in internal martial arts, had no concept of "true qi" at all. He only learned how to convert factional power into true qi by chance from fragments of history, which was an accidental enlightenment.

Sure enough, after two attempts, he didn't feel anything. Just as Bai Lin was about to give up, a warm current suddenly surged from his lower abdomen, instantly permeating his entire body.

Bai Lin's heart skipped a beat, and he slammed a block punch into the wall of the corridor, startling the students.

Upon closer inspection, everyone saw a fist-sized mark on the wall, with cracks extending nearly two meters. They all gasped in shock and could no longer laugh.

"It seems... this is a low-level martial arts world..." Bai Lin suddenly realized.
