Chapter 138: Worth a try

Chapter 138 is worth a try

In McDoug’s original plan, the book was composed of three parts, and the parchment he just took out was the second manuscript.

Albert took out a few pieces of parchment from the stack of parchment and began to read them carefully. He also used a quill to help correct the flaws in his words. He occasionally talked to the two about possible problems in the article.

Isobel is undoubtedly the most depressed person here, because she can't understand at all, let alone the topics that several people are talking about.

You can only stay by and help organize some things, or flip through the parchments and try to decipher the contents.

“How on earth did this guy learn the ancient magic script?” Isobel muttered softly.

"Well, he is better at reading and reading than Mog." Professor Brod nodded. "According to his current level, in a few years, he may surpass 99% of wizards in ancient magic texts. As an adult After that, I will recommend him to publish a book about ancient magic texts."

Isobel opened her mouth and swallowed back all the words she just wanted to say.

"Don't compare yourself to him. Sometimes such geniuses appear. It's really unbelievable." McDougal nodded: "Do you think it's Mr. Albert?"

"Write a book? I'll think about it after I graduate from Hogwarts. I haven't thought about it for the time being." Although Albert said that, he was really seriously considering whether to write a quick introduction book. . There is already a book like "A Simple Introduction to Ancient Magic Texts", but this book is not really easy for Albert after reading it.

You can make a quick start version of the ancient magic text based on the knowledge you gained when upgrading the ancient magic text, just like Miranda's standard spells.

Hearing this, the muscles on Isobel’s face twitched. In fact, she wanted to say that Albert was bragging, but considering the other person's attainments in magic writing, it was really possible to do this.

Everyone was busy until the afternoon. Lunch was served in the office and the house elf brought a sumptuous lunch.

After eating, they sat on the sofa and chatted about the contents of the manuscript.

Now, Albert has understood McDougal’s idea. This guy is going to first write a book that is difficult for others to understand, and then write several complete explanations to help everyone understand the book.

As for Isobel, that guy had already sneaked away after lunch. It was thanks to her that she could hold on for so long before finding an excuse to leave.

After all, the three people in the office didn't intend to talk properly and directly communicated using ancient magic script, which made Isobel look confused and couldn't understand what they were saying.

“Isobel is gone?” Professor Broad suddenly said: “It lasted longer than I expected!”

Albert expressed that he did not want to talk and continued to help McDoug find problems.

"If she wants to understand or even participate, she definitely needs to improve her level of ancient magic texts." McDoug said softly, "Isobel really needs some stimulation."

"Exciting?" The corners of Albert's mouth twitched slightly and he changed the subject, "I feel like I still can't get to that point. I always feel that something is missing, but I'm not sure what is missing."

“Don’t worry, when we finish writing this book, I believe you will be able to master its secrets.” McDougal promised.

"I hope so." Albert sighed softly, took out his pocket watch and checked the time. It was almost three-thirty in the afternoon. "I'll leave first. There will be an Apparition class later."

“I think you are wasting your time.” Professor Broad shook his head. “Apparition is too early for you now.”

“Listen more and learn more, it will always be useful!”

As Albert was about to leave, McDougal called out to him.

"What's the matter, Mr. McDougal?" Albert stopped and turned around and asked.

“Thank you.” Albert stuffed the note into his pocket and turned to leave the office.

"You are quite optimistic about him." Professor Broad looked at his old friend with a smile, "Isn't it more suitable than expected?"

"It's indeed an unexpected surprise. I have talent and a good personality." McDougal nodded, "However, it's too early to say this now. Let's wait until adulthood to talk about other things!"

Albert knew nothing about the brief conversation between the two. He was on his way to the auditorium. When he arrived, Tycross was waving his wand and conjuring an old-fashioned wooden circle for each student.

Albert quietly leaned into the corner without disturbing others, and listened quietly to the other party's lecture.

“The most important thing to remember when apparating is the three D’s.” Tycross once again emphasized the importance of goal, determination, and calmness. He always mentioned them before starting every practice.

“Now, please focus on your goals…”

“Determine to occupy the space you want.” Albert murmured. “Let yourself enter the void state and move calmly.”

Albert has always wanted to try it on his own. Even if he is separated, it doesn't matter. At most, he will be scolded by Professor McGonagall and a few points will be deducted. If he can master the skill of Apparition, it will not be a loss at all.

Because of the previous experiences, everyone stared at the wooden circle and hurriedly did as Tycross asked.

"one two three-"

The sound of Apparition echoed in the hall.

Only a few people succeeded, and the landing location was not accurate enough, and some things on the body were lost, such as a nail or a few hairs.

Of course, more people just spun around and fell to the ground, making other spectators laugh.

There is also a separate unlucky guy.

A Hufflepuff boy was frozen in mid-air, and the lower half of his body appeared within a few feet in front of Albert.

The deans immediately gathered around him. There was a loud bang and after a burst of purple smoke dissipated, the unlucky guy's body was pressed back on.

While the deans and others were focusing their attention on the Hufflepuff students, Albert also began to try to apparate, his target being an empty seat a few meters away.

Without rotation, Albert focused his attention on the target, imagined himself appearing outside the target, and allowed himself to enter a state of void.

There was no sound, and Albert stayed where he was, knowing that he had failed.

However, Albert didn’t care much because he also knew that failure was normal and no one could succeed in one go.

Without the help of the panel, he naturally did not expect this.

 He glanced at the skill panel secretly, but still didn't find the phantom appearance, which made Albert a little depressed, although this was expected.

"By the way, this might be feasible!" Albert suddenly thought of a very bold idea. If he could experience the Apparition himself, he might be able to have panel skills.

"It's worth a try, I just don't know anyone who is willing to help me." Albert muttered in a low voice. Although the chance was not high, he was still ready to give it a try.

He immediately turned around and walked towards the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
