Chapter 115 Obstacle Curse
At present, Mrs. Pince has not noticed the collection of books in the forbidden book area, and someone has quietly "borrowed" three books.
Albert is quite concerned about this matter. Every time he goes to the library to do homework, he will pay special attention to whether there are any reports of missing books in the library.
Actually, Albert was overly worried. The books in the restricted area are all chained to the bookshelves, and the librarian will not be idle all day checking whether there are no books in the restricted area.
After all, the chains used in the restricted book area are all protected by magic and cannot be opened or broken by ordinary students. Someone may run into the restricted book area in the middle of the night and peek at the books, but it is not easy to secretly take away the books in the restricted book area.
Compared with the incident that Albert cared about, another interesting incident has been spread in Hogwarts.
It is said that a certain student got up in the middle of the night and made a fool of Filch who was patrolling at night.
This administrator has had a gloomy look on his face in recent days.
Well, Filch had this expression on his face most of the time.
The origin of the rumor was that a certain student happened to pass by Filch and heard him whispering:
I will definitely catch you, I will hang you up and whip you... and other whispers.
Combined with the last case, everyone quickly concluded that Filch failed to catch the students who got up in the middle of the night for night walks.
This is undoubtedly a fun thing for Hogwarts students who are eager to find interesting topics.
Some students quickly figured it out and made the incident known to everyone in Hogwarts.
However, the rumors they spun are very consistent with the actual situation.
After being bombarded by rumors, every time the administrator stood in the corridor, he would glare menacingly at every student passing by, trying to find the guy who got up in the middle of the night and went out for a night walk.
Filch's ferocious appearance failed to catch the culprit, but instead frightened the lower grade students.
Mr. Administrator has no idea that the culprit who caused all this is currently having a snowball fight with others outside the castle.
George looked at the snowball stagnant in mid-air and said in surprise: "Have you successfully mastered the obstacle spell?"
"Well, I learned it not long ago." Albert said, "This magic is actually not too difficult."
Fred sneered at this, one of Albert's lies: this magic is actually not too difficult.
"It's not easy to use magic to accurately hit moving objects." Li Jordan reached out and poked the snowball stopped in mid-air, turned his head to look at Albert, and asked curiously: "How accurate are you?" How did you practice it?"
“Be careful.” Albert warned.
“What to be careful about?”
As soon as he finished speaking, before Li Jordan could react, he was hit by a snowball on his face.
"I reminded you." Albert spread his hands and explained innocently, "Although the obstacle spell can pause the target hit by the spell, the effect will not last too long."
Of course, if the wizard who uses it has malicious intentions, it can also have the effect of repelling the enemy, which is related to the wizard's own magical power.
Hahaha!
When the three of them saw this scene, they couldn't help laughing.
The next moment, George, who was still laughing, was hit in the face by a snowball, and part of the snow fell into his mouth.
George wiped the snow off his face and gave Lee Jordan a snowball with his backhand.
"I dare say that not many freshmen can use the obstacle spell." When Li Jordan threw the snowball at George, Fred also threw the snowball in his hand at Albert.
Fred's sneak attack failed, and the snowball was fixed in mid-air by a blue-green spark. This scene was like someone pressing the pause button.
“The effect is not bad.” Albert reached out and pushed the snowball to one side. The next second, the snowball hit the snow next to him.
"Snowball fights don't involve the use of magic." Fred couldn't help but protested loudly, "You are cheating, can you still have fun?"
Fred is envious of Albert's speed in learning magic. They are both learning obstacle spells. However, unfortunately, except for Albert, no one else has successfully mastered the obstacle spell so far.
There are a lot of things that need to be learned in daily life. If you want to master a magic, you need to spend a lot of time practicing.
Especially in the first grade, everyone's magic power is still growing. People like Albert who can master magic quickly seem to be cheating.
"Okay, I don't use magic." Albert put the wand into his pocket, bent down and pinched a snowball from the thick snow on the ground, and stuck it directly on Fred's face, who was still about to speak.
“Let me finish,” Fred couldn’t help but protest. Then, while he was speaking, he was hit by another snowball, this time thrown by Lee Jordan.
"You want to practice obstacle spells with snowballs?" Albert raised his eyebrows and said first, "That's a good idea."
This time, before Fred could speak, he was interrupted again by George next to him with a snowball.
“You three bastards,” Fred shouted angrily.
"Which one of you will come first?" Albert asked, ignoring Fred's protest.
“He goes first.” George and Lee Jordan both raised their hands and pointed at Fred.
“Fred, get ready.” Albert bent down, pinched a snowball, and shouted to Fred, “I’m going to throw it away.”
“What preparations?” Fred was still in a daze and was hit in the face by another snowball.
“Of course it’s to practice the Obstacle Spell!” Albert blinked, “This is a rare opportunity.”
"Yes, this is a rare opportunity." Li Qiaodan and George nodded in agreement, "We also gave you the best opportunity."
“Asshole, I don’t want this opportunity. Which one of you will get out first and get smashed.” Fred glared at the three of them angrily.
“He.” Both of them pointed at Albert.
"No, it's just you, George." Fred was very dissatisfied that his brother was clearly on his team, but he actually made trouble for him.
"Okay, I'm just me." George accepted the reality simply, but he added, "But let's make an agreement first. Everyone will try ten times. No one is allowed to hide. They can only use obstacle spells to block the snowballs. .”
“I have no objection.” Albert said simply.
“Of course you have no objection…”
As a result, as can be imagined, the three of them failed to use the obstacle spell to block the oncoming snowballs, and were hit by snowballs one after another. These guys especially like to greet others in the face.
Lee Jordan wiped the snow off his face, pointed at Albert and complained, "The three of us will go together."
"Who told you not to use the obstacle spell?" Albert waved his wand and easily stopped the three flying snowballs. He moved a step to the side and let the three snowballs fall into the air.
“What the **** are you doing?” Shanna was hit by three snowballs as she passed by.
“It’s all Albert’s fault, who let him avoid it.” Lee Jordan took the lead in putting the blame on Albert’s head.
“That’s right, that’s right,” Fred and George agreed.
“Smash them with snowballs, or I’ll help you.” Albert enthusiastically offered to help.
“Ahem, Shanna, do you want to have a snowball fight together?” Fred finally put a snowball on Albert’s face when he wasn’t paying attention.
"Albert is so cunning. He actually used magic to block the snowball during the snowball fight." George said nonsense seriously.
Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes at the twin brothers and muttered, "Actually, we are practicing magic."
“What magic?” Shanna asked curiously.
“Obstacle spell.” Albert said without thinking, “You **** actually want to sneak attack me.”
“I am not giving you a chance to use the obstacle spell.” George said quibbled.
"Would you like to practice together?" Fred invited with a smile, "This spell is quite interesting."
"No, I'm going to go skating on the lake." Shanna pointed to the skate boots in her hand, "I brought them from home when I came home during the last Christmas vacation.
"Skates?" Albert raised his wand, stopped the snowball that George was trying to attack him, and said to Shanna: "Are you alone?"
"Angelina and none of them can play this thing. You know, the only sport that many wizards like is Quidditch." Zanna said helplessly, "By the way, can you skate?"
"Yes, I can. However, my level in this area is average." Albert said casually, "But, I thought you didn't like sports."
“It’s so rude to say that.” Shanna raised her eyebrows and said, “I’ve been playing with this throughout the Christmas holiday. Do you want to go together?”
“Is it interesting?” Fred asked curiously.
“I personally think it’s quite interesting. There are also many people skating on the Black Lake.” Shanna nodded in the direction of the Black Lake and continued.
“Let’s go and have a look too.” George was a little interested in skating.
“You don’t have skates, why are you going to join in the fun?” Albert couldn’t help but rolled his eyes at the three of them.
Skating is not easy to learn. Generally, beginners have to smash their butts if they want to learn on their own. Moreover, skates are quite dangerous and very unfriendly to beginners.
“Isn’t there still you?” Li Jordan reached out and gave Albert a hand. “When the time comes, you can use the transfiguration technique to create a pair of shoes. I believe you can do it.”
"It's more difficult to make those shoes with transfiguration." George denied Lee Jordan's method. "You should ask someone to borrow skate boots, and then use the duplication spell to get the boots for us."
Albert was stunned when he heard this. All the people around him are talents!
