Hogwarts: Harry Potter and the Glock 18.

Chapter 188 Apparation Crash Course

After coming out of the dark spiral staircase, the bright light outside seemed a little dazzling.

Nurmengard is a black castle located in Austria. It was originally born because Grindelwald needed to use it to imprison some not-so-smart diehards. Although Grindelwald is a dark wizard, he himself considers himself a dark wizard. But the irony is that he has become the most legendary revolutionary in the European magic circle by contending with those conservatives.

After decades of hard work, almost half of Europe has accepted the management from the "Magic Party". Unlike America, Europe has a large number of magical countries. There has never been unity here, and there are many countries , after the revolutionary success of the UMOCI party, the unprecedented unification seems to be on the right track.

Now there is no need to use Nurmengard to imprison opponents. The stubborn conservatives have become a thing of the past. Their huge and decaying bodies have been divided and devoured by the Witch Party over the past few decades, turning them into nutrients for their growth. .

As a result, Nurmengard took off the cloak of a prison and became one of the very important research bases of the Wuzi Party.

The interior of the black and steep castle is magnificent, but the decoration style is not the same as that of Hogwarts. This is the research center, and the magical modern style is the main tone here.

When he walked out of the doorway connected by the spiral staircase, Harry saw two magic puppets stationed at the door like guards. A metal door with a swing in the center was followed by a transparent glass corridor. When he looked through the glass and looked down At that time, you can see hundreds of busy people coming and going, and there are countless unnamed small alchemy machines going back and forth above the people's heads, transporting various materials and equipment.

Compared with Diagon Alley, which he saw when he first saw the magic world in England, Harry was instantly dazzled by the new-style magic he saw here. He even thought that he had not come to a magic research center, but to a few The world of magic technology a hundred years later.

Just as Harry leaned on the railing and looked around curiously, a series of hurried footsteps settled beside him, and there was a light cough.

"Well, is that Mr. Harry Potter?"

A gray-haired wizard in a silver-blue tunic spoke to Harry in English with a German accent.

"Yes, I am, who are you?"

"John Bach, a first-level researcher at the Nurmengard Institute of Magic, I am also a professor of space magic research in Durmstrang, and my research field is space movement and transmission guided by the main consciousness." The old professor paused Paused, then shook Harry's hand vigorously.

"Nice to meet you, Professor Bach, Professor Grindelwald said he would give me a crash course, what does this mean?"

"Apparition." Bach said simply, and then led Harry walking briskly through the corridors, "It is the object of my research, oh yes, Hogwarts does not have a precise and detailed classification of magic, according to The nature of magic is different, and Durmstrang completed the sorting and classification of magic systems 15 years ago."

"Spatial movement and teleportation guided by the main consciousness refers to the space movement with the wizard himself as the main body of the spell, including apparition, and it is also a commonly used method of space movement. The door key is different from apparition. It is a fixed-anchor type of spatial movement, and the biggest difference between the two is that one is movable and the other is immovable."

As he spoke, Professor Bach stretched his hand forward, and the front of his arm was directly inserted into the void, as if it had been inserted into an invisible pocket. Harry was patted on the right shoulder, and when he turned his head, he saw Professor Bach The missing right hand.

"In this way, you can probably understand, what is dynamic space movement?"

Harry's body froze, not because he was frightened, but because he almost couldn't control the urge to grab that arm and throw it over his shoulder. Professor Bach looked at least eighty or ninety years old, Although this age is not too old for a wizard, he will definitely not be able to stand up to himself. If he suddenly lay on the ground, who knows if he can get up.

"I don't understand it very well, but I was shocked."

The corners of Harry's mouth twitched slightly, "Is this some kind of branch of apparition?"

"To be precise, they are just classified as two different branches of a large category. Although the core concept of magic is the same, the performance and usage methods are completely different, and the difficulty is also completely different."

"Space magic can be roughly divided into two categories, idealism and materialism. The essence of apparition is that I can go wherever I think of it. It doesn't even require a wizard to go to the destination, a place name, or even a vague The description can make the wizard reach the end point, or one of the end points. This is something that magic such as the port key cannot do. The port key needs the wizard to clearly know where the destination is. The spatial movement of the port key is passive. A process in which things are pulled past."

Seeing that Harry still had many doubts on his face, Professor Bach stretched out his hand and pointed forward, "We have arrived, I will explain to you one by one later, today's class is very intense, I hope you will do your best." study."

"Good professor."

Harry nodded and didn't speak anymore. He followed Professor Bach's footsteps into an empty room.

"Do you know anything about Apparition? I heard that Principal Grindelwald said that you are currently in the second year at Hogwarts, but you are very good and easy to learn. You cannot be treated as an ordinary student. "

"Will this have any effect, Professor?" Harry asked confusedly. He knew a little about Apparation, but he didn't know how to start it.

"Of course there is. It's like in flight class that your professor will teach you how to ride a rocket from scratch, even if you have ridden it many times at home, and even fly it well."

"Because even if you can ride it, it doesn't mean you are riding it correctly?" Harry asked speculatively.

"Yes, that's it. I know very well the way I taught people how to apparate back then. Throw two circles on the ground, and then let you close your eyes and turn around, right?"

"Yes." Harry nodded, "Is this method wrong?"

"Of course not, it's just that this method is outdated and inefficient, and it can't correctly guide wizards to build a concept of space."

"Whether it is Apparition or Portkey, space movement has a necessary point, that is the coordinates, the coordinates of the destination. The coordinates of the Portkey are fixed, and they are fixed when the Portkey is manufactured, so the Portkey The difficulty is higher, and the transmission is more stable, safe, and powerful.",

"The movement coordinates of the apparition depend on the wizard's will, which is imagination. The clearer the content of the imagination, the greater the possibility of going to the correct place."

"By imagining places we haven't been to. What's the principle?"

Once he started to think about it, Harry began to feel a little weird about apparating.

"Names are magical, just like the owls we use to send letters. They only need us to tell them who to send the letter to, and they will be able to deliver it accurately. The power of magic can be idealistic, so owls can Find the only correct target among countless people with the same name and surname, and deliver the letter accurately."

"But the magic is not only the name, but also the name of the place. Although you have not been there, someone has been there, someone has said its name, and described its appearance. We can think that the magic power is everywhere in the world. After recording this information, when we need to go there, or when we are going to a place with certain characteristics, the magic will pop up a list for us. The clearer the imagination, the more we can narrow down the correct direction of the destination. "

"The fundamental reason why there is a danger of 'separation' in Apparition is that the wizard himself does not have a clear vision of the destination. There are several destinations in the list, and you have not determined which one you are going to, so you The body separated and went to a different destination."

"Okay, let's start now. Before officially learning Apparation, I will teach you a little magic."

Professor Bach pulled out his own wand, which was a gold-plated Ruger P08. The carvings on it were not as delicate as Professor Flitwick's, but the gold glitter was dazzling enough.

"Fantasy spell, also called projection spell, it can turn the picture imagined in our brain into a projection and appear in front of us. This magic can intuitively train our imagination of things and space."

"I will describe certain things to you, and you need to build those things through my description, and use your imagination to refine it. As long as you can master this trick, apparition is very easy to master. Currently I The best students I've ever taught just took a day and a half to apparate, and believe me, it's not that hard."

"Then the magic you just patted on my shoulder."

Harry is quite curious about this move similar to Dimensional Fist. Think about it, when a two-meter-tall, ultra-muscular mallet that can break stones with one punch punches your face, everyone will pay attention Put it on the face that was about to be beaten, but after the punch was thrown out, the face that was covered with defenses was not beaten violently. The fist that was the size of a sandbag attacked your second brother from bottom to top. Let any tough guy instantly lose the ability to fight.

Don't say it's dirty or not, just say it's easy to use and it's over.

Which muscular hunk who is eight feet tall doesn't like being the old six?That's a man's romance, it's no worse than being a Rambo on the battlefield with Gatling in his arms. Stealing a chicken with your strength is better than eating a chicken with your strength. It brings much more happiness to people. When someone else's smile is transferred to your face When you go to school, you will gain double the happiness.

"Don't be too ambitious, this requires a deeper understanding of the concept of space. If you really want to learn, you can report my improvement. Er. You are not in Durmstrang, right? Do you plan to transfer? Hogwarts The world has no future, the world is no longer what it used to be, wizards who cannot keep up with the times, the only way to go is to be eliminated."

Like Grindelwald, John Bach didn't think highly of Hogwarts. He was the one who witnessed Grindelwald's great achievements along the way, and he was also the one who knew best that ancient magic learning was destined to be eliminated by the times.

"Try the Illusion Charm first. It's not difficult to learn. It's an entry-level little magic. I heard that Hogwarts' Ravenclaw School has done in-depth research on this magic. Let's start."

From a quill pen at the beginning, to houses with complex structures, and then to the simulation of various mountains and rivers, Harry studied carefully with Professor Bach. During the practice, Harry made rapid progress. This exercise The connection with Transfiguration is similar, except that Transfiguration is an in-depth study of the inside, while Apparation requires a zoomed-in high-altitude view of the outside.

After completing the training of detailed imagination, the practice of distance and spatial scale followed.

Harry did not forget to ask Professor Bach to send him a letter on the way. Today is the day to go home for Christmas, and the Dursleys will pick him up at the station, but he obviously can’t make the appointment today. It’s not right to make his uncle and aunt worry. Lee wants to do.

After formally teaching Harry, John Bach finally understood why Grindelwald asked him, a "doctoral supervisor", to teach a child who had just entered "junior high school". In less than an hour, Harry finished dictating things. The precise imaginative modeling, and the subsequent mastery of distance and spatial scale are surprisingly fast. Harry, who is already extremely talented in sports, has a good sense of space. He only needs a little bit of things that ordinary people need to practice for a long time. You can quickly get started with just a few clicks.

"In the end it's all about practice."

Before the sun set, Harry passed all the assessments of John Bach with full marks, and all the pre-apparition exercises were completed, and the last step was to use this magic himself.

"Stand in the circle."

Bach transformed into two circles, signaling Harry to stand in one of the circles, which is the most traditional way of apparating.

"We can't blindly abandon the past, nor can we blindly indulge in the past. All in all, it's just practical."

"Imagine that your body has come to the circle in front, close your eyes, raise your hands horizontally, and slowly circle around, to feel a kind of emptiness like flying into the sky."

Harry slowly turned his body on the spot according to Professor Bach's words, imagining that he had come to another circle not far ahead, and all the details of the destination appeared in his mind. , It is easier to make up the picture that I have seen with my own eyes.

When Harry opened his eyes again, he saw Professor Bach applauding him, "Very beautiful Apparition, and then we can go to a bigger venue for training."

"Come with me." He grabbed Harry's arm and led him to Apparate to a flat grass field, at least five or six miles away from Nurmengard, where no one could disturb them.

After a successful attempt, Harry didn't have much hindrance in his subsequent practice. Gradually, he didn't need to close his eyes and rotate his body. He had already grasped the wonderful feeling of traveling through space. It's hard to give an exact explanation, but anyway, as long as it does, it's good.

After completing a precise apparition with a span of one hundred miles, Professor Bach took out a certificate stamped by the Union of European Wizards from his arms.

"Congratulations, Harry, you graduated."

"Thank you, Professor Bach, you are a great teacher!"

Harry accepted the certificate with a smile. Although it was useless in England, after all, England had not joined the European Union of Wizards led by the Witch Party, but within the coverage of the Witch Party, he was a legally compliant and qualified Apparition users can enjoy free treatment and rescue for accidental splitting once a year.

"Hope to see you in Durmstrang, and send my regards to Professor Flitwick."

"No problem, but do you know Professor Flitwick?" Harry asked curiously.

"Of course, I still remember the time when I competed with him for the duel championship. That guy is really strong. He is the fastest and most accurate man I have ever seen. The little man has great magic power in his body!"

Professor Bach laughed, "It's just that I didn't continue to duel later. I went to study the use of apparition in battle. When I have results, I will have passed the age of enthusiasm."

He smiled helplessly, but did not appear disappointed.

I will work hard to update in August!
I plan to make a wave of combat power rankings. Starting tomorrow, the number of updated words will be more than 8K. I will try my best to do my best. I am busy at work recently. If I have no business, I can only code words to earn more pocket money.
