Chapter 114 The Problem of the Patronus Spell
April, May, June...
Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, the final exam is getting closer and closer.
Andy has been living a quiet life these past few months.
Except for Andy's birthday on April 16th, when Andy secretly went to Hogsmeade to hold a birthday party, he never did anything out of the ordinary.
Andy never went to the forbidden book area again.
After all, the impact of secretly watching "Advanced Dark Arts" in the principal's office was not good, and Andy didn't want to be caught by Dumbledore again.
If there is anything to be happy about in the past few months, it may be that the system's potential points have once again reached [5] points, allowing Andy to increase his [Psychic] talent to level [5].
Psychic power is a very mysterious talent. The enhancement of psychic power will give Andy a feeling of 'I have become stronger'.
But actually...well, okay, Andy has indeed become stronger.
The duel club formed by Andy and the four of them meets every week, and Andy and Cedric also compete frequently.
In terms of combat ability alone, Andy and Cedric can be considered evenly matched. Unless there was a careless mistake, neither of them could do anything to the other.
But in a duel, Andy used powerful emotional power to cast a disarming spell, pushing back Cedric's spell almost instantly, tearing through his armor spell and disarming his wand.
It was a crushing crushing blow.
This is the first time Andy has invoked extreme emotions since adding some [Psychic] attributes. At that time, Andy had only one thought in his mind, a very strong thought - to defeat the person in front of him!
It was that time that Andy understood what exploding seeds meant.
Normal use of the disarming spell actually requires the emotional cooperation of the caster. But extreme emotions are different from normal emotions. They are extremely strong emotional outbursts that can fully unleash one's potential.
It was precisely because of that explosion that Andy had a slight touch of the threshold of a wizard of Voldemort's level.
Just imagine, with the murderous intention and violent emotions in Voldemort's heart, coupled with the darkness in his heart, how powerful would the killing curse cast by him be?
What's more, the Killing Curse itself is a magic that will cause death upon contact.
In other words, Voldemort in his heyday was unmatched in terms of 'attack power'.
horrible!
Andy has always been glad that he was not hot-headed at the beginning and went to find Quirrell to duel for the sake of so-called justice and friends.
That is nothing short of seeking death.
Andy doesn't think that he will definitely become the leading actor in this world after traveling through time.
Wang Mang's fate serves as a warning to others.
After adding the [Psychic] attribute to level [5], the first thing Andy did was to go to the library to look for books related to the Patronus Charm.
Andy has always guessed that the Patronus Charm is probably the magic of merging soul and magic.
As for the book saying that you need to recall happy emotions when casting spells - Andy thinks that maybe that's just the result of simplified magic.
"Call the gods to protect you!"
In the abandoned classroom on the sixth floor of the castle, Andy waved his wand, and the silver-white kitten flew out from the tip of the wand, circled in the air, and stopped in mid-air in front of Andy.
"Is this the only way?" Andy was a little disappointed.
Andy has been studying the Patronus Charm for more than two months, and the result of two months of hard training...is to condense his own Patronus.
This made Andy a little dissatisfied.
You know, Andy has been eager to add some [Psychic] talent. In addition to wanting to add a trump card to himself, the more important point is that Andy wants to learn the Patronus Charm.
"Isn't your talent for [Charms] not enough?"
Andy's learning of magic has always been smooth sailing, especially after his talent points have improved. Andy can learn ordinary simple magic spells just once.
But when it comes to the Patronus Charm, it's a big stumble.
"Well..." Andy rubbed his temples.
In the past few months, the last thing Andy wanted to admit was that his previous speculation was wrong.
boom!
Hermione placed a stack of thick books on an old table, "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. We have an exam in a week. Even if you don't want to memorize, it's best to review these books again."
"you're right!"
Andy waved the wand gently, and the silver-white kitten disappeared immediately.
In fact, as long as you summon the Patronus, you can be considered proficient in the Patronus Charm. But what Andy wants to do is to upgrade the magic based on the original Patronus Charm.
Of course it is difficult!
Andy walked over to Hermione.
"History of Magic", "Standard Spells - Elementary", "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration"...
Andy had a headache.
The closer to final exams, the more severe Hermione's pre-exam syndrome became. Even while walking in the corridor, Andy could hear Hermione's voice reciting the textbook in a low voice.
Also crazy.
Andy pulled up a chair and sat down, then picked up Hermione's History of Magic notebook and read it.
However, although his eyes were reading, Andy's brain was thinking about the Patronus Charm and Obscurus.
Dark emotions form an obscurus...
"Um……"
If there is anyone in Hogwarts who was abused by his family before going to school, it must be Harry Potter.
But just looking at Harry, we can tell that although he had a bad life at his uncle's house, he actually only felt wronged, angry, sad, and missed his parents, but not hateful.
So Harry did not become an Obscurial.
Andy thought to himself, "It would be great if there was an Obscurial to study."
"As for the Patronus Charm..."
Many scholars say that the Patronus of a wizard is actually the embodiment of the mind. Unless there is a big change, the Patronus will not easily change its form.
If these scholars' speculations are correct, then it means that Andy's previous speculation is also correct.
The Patronus Charm is a fusion of positive emotions and magic, and it can also be said to be the Obscurial of white magic.
"But... what's the difference?"
Bang!
Hermione slapped the table unhappily, "Read the book! The problem you can't figure out now, maybe you will figure it out naturally after reading a few more books in the future."
Andy smiled bitterly, "I just... okay, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore."
Putting away his thoughts, Andy seriously read Hermione's History of Magic Notes.
It's embarrassing to say that the gap between people is bigger than the gap between people and dogs.
Hermione had memorized the first-grade textbooks before entering school. But Andy, let alone memorizing them, had forgotten many knowledge points after not reading them for a few months.
Especially the history of magic, which required remembering so many names, places, times, and events.
Andy basically forgot everything he read.
