Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Everyone stayed in the laboratory, and Lin Xia opened a special training area for everyone to practice the Patronus spell together.

"Expecto Patronus!" Ron shouted excitedly.

He didn't know how many times he had failed. Every time he failed, he would hear Lin Xia's voice "continue" in his ears.

So he could only wave his wand numbly again and again, trying to keep his movements and gestures standard.

In this state, Ron's mind was blank, he couldn't think of anything, and his mind was filled with those happy pictures.

Originally, he was very opposed to this kind of hard training teaching method, thinking that it was ineffective and inefficient.

But he always thought of happy memories in his mind, which made him feel happy in the midst of suffering.

But this time, Ron didn't hear Lin Xia's voice shouting to continue in his ears, but subconsciously raised his hand and waved the wand again--

"Expecto Patronus!!"

A ray of light that was whiter and more dazzling than the last time appeared, completely illuminating Ron's numb heart.

Under the shining light, he seemed to have come to a carefree world, and his mood was extremely high, sweeping away the previous fatigue.

Ron looked at this scene in shock, blinking in disbelief.

He even rubbed his eyes repeatedly with the other hand that was not waving the wand, thinking that he had seen it wrong.

After a long while, he found his voice and muttered to himself: "I succeeded, I actually succeeded in summoning the Patronus Charm? God, I succeeded! I really succeeded!"

A touch of ecstasy surged in his heart, and Ron couldn't wait to share his joy with others, but when he turned around, he found that Draco and Hermione were practicing hard, with a cold expression.

Only Harry and Lin Xia looked at him with a smile on their faces and gave him a thumbs up.

Ron smiled embarrassedly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

He knew that he was happy now, which was a bit like rubbing salt into the hearts of Hermione and Draco, but he was very happy!

Lin Xia walked to Ron and reminded him: "Ron, strike while the iron is hot, grasp the feeling of releasing the Patronus Charm just now, remember this feeling, and practice diligently every day, and strive to successfully send out every Patronus Charm."

Ron nodded desperately. He recalled his emotions and the images that flashed through his mind just now, and shouted again: "Expedition Patronus!"

It was not an illusion or an illusion, he really summoned the Patronus Charm.

A group of dazzling white light condensed on the top of the wand. Although it was very weak, it was enough to drive away the flying Dementors.

In other words, Ron successfully had the power to protect himself in front of the Dementors!

As for Lin Xia and Harry, they have been practicing the Patronus Charm.

Harry's Patronus Charm is not proficient enough, and it cannot be 100% accurate. It often takes three times to successfully summon it once.

However, compared with the Patronus Charm summoned at the beginning, the light summoned this time is a little bigger than the last time.

As for Lin Xia, she is practicing the transformation of the guardian creature in the Patronus Charm.

Last time, the mirage worm advanced and gained some abilities of the creature it transformed. Later, after many experiments, she found that the mirage worm's transformation ability is not something that all creatures can inherit.

Mirage worms can inherit some abilities of ordinary magical creatures, but when it comes to mid-to-high-level magical creatures, mirage worms can't do it.

Even if Lin Xia turns it into a phoenix, it will only have the form of a phoenix without any power.

But it's okay this way.

If it can really inherit the abilities of the phoenix, Lin Xia will instead suspect that her mirage worm is possessed by some creature in the evil god world. Why did it suddenly change like chicken blood, not upgrade, no no, it has been reborn so much!

I hope that one day she can also suspect that her pet has been possessed by some creature, which means that the pet's ability has undergone a drastic change.

The stronger the pet's ability, the stronger her strength will be.

After leaving the laboratory, Ron shared his thoughts and emotions about summoning the Patronus Charm with Hermione and Harry. Harry was always the supporting actor and would reply to whatever Ron said.

He was happy for Ron from the bottom of his heart, thinking that his friend's magical qualifications had improved and he could be safer.

On the contrary, Hermione remained silent, but this time she didn't say a word to Ron, she said a word.

When the three of them arrived at the Gryffindor common room, according to habit, they were going to sit down and chat in front of the warm fireplace.

But this time, Hermione went straight to the innermost part and went back to the dormitory first.

Ron specifically asked her, "Hermione, don't you want to chat?"

Hermione looked a little grumpy, and reluctantly replied, "No, I'm a little tired and want to rest first."

Ron didn't understand, turned to look at Harry, and asked in confusion, "How did I offend Hermione again? Why do I feel that she is a little unhappy?"

Harry said "uh" and whispered, "Maybe she successfully summoned the Patronus Charm, but she didn't, so she was a little angry."

Seeing Ron's face change and wanting to say something, Harry quickly continued, "But she is not angry with you, she is more angry with herself."

Ron then eased his expression and said, "She used to show off how many magics she learned in front of us. She learned it after being taught in class. How simple this magic is...

I didn't say anything at that time. Why did she react so much just because she learned the Patronus Charm before her this time?"

He muttered vaguely: "This is too petty!"

Harry patted her shoulder: "Her anger is not directed at you, but at herself. Hermione is a bit of a perfectionist."

Ron thought about it and felt the same way.

If he had a friend who he always looked down on, and suddenly surpassed him one day, he would feel a little uncomfortable.

At this moment, Neville's figure flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Ron said nervously: "Harry, why don't we continue to discuss the Patronus Charm in front of the fireplace? I want to learn it better!"

Harry's eyes flashed with confusion.

"Why so suddenly? Haven't you practiced enough in the laboratory? I thought you would want to talk about something else when you come to the common room..."

No, is this still the Ron he knows?

Ron took the initiative to ask for progress without Hermione urging him behind him?

Ron took Harry's hand and hurriedly sat in front of the fireplace. He had already discussed with him, and Harry could only follow his thoughts.

On the other side, Hermione returned to the dormitory.

Several girls in the dormitory were playing around, and they felt a little uncomfortable when they saw Hermione coming in.

In the past, Hermione would come back just when the dormitory was about to close, when everyone was going to sleep, and it was rare to see her at this time.

Hermione came to her bed without saying a word, opened a diary and wrote about her experience of practicing the Patronus Charm today.

Every time she finished practicing the Patronus Charm, she would write a diary to summarize.

Not only this spell, but also other spells that she could not learn at one time, she would summarize them in the same way.

It is also because of this that she learned the spells so well, and she would try not to make the mistakes she had made before next time.

Not knowing what she wrote, Hermione suddenly frowned and muttered to herself:

"Why did the last step fail? I clearly felt that it was about to be summoned by me, but I always failed at the last moment."

She turned the quill pen and her eyes were rolling. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she thought of a good idea. She immediately hurriedly wrote a line in the diary:

[I must face fear once in person. Only in this way can I burst out with unparalleled courage and overcome the hurdle that I have never been able to overcome! ]

Hermione took a deep breath and closed the diary.

She already knew what she was going to do.

On the other side, Lin Xia and Draco returned to the Hufflepuff common room.

Draco immediately asked Lin Xia for the trick of the Patronus Charm.

Lin Xia asked him in return: "Let's not talk about my successful experience first. After all, everyone's success is different. Let's talk about yours first. What do you think you are still missing?"

Draco sat on a green grassy ground and looked up at the spring ivy winding around the pillar.

These vines are low-level magical creatures that can bloom colorful flowers. The flowers release a kind of aromatic substance that makes people feel happy.

The little wizards like spring vines very much, and sometimes they pick the petals of spring vines to take to class.

Draco said: "I clearly felt that I was about to succeed, but the most critical step was that I failed to release it. I don't know what I did wrong."

Lin Xia recalled Draco's movements of waving his wand and the spells he recited, and said thoughtfully:

"Your movements and spells are very standard. As for your magical qualifications... I never thought that you couldn't learn the Patronus Charm. Maybe you need some stimulation."

Draco hurriedly asked: "What stimulation?"

Please... you... collect_6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//Bar)

Lin Xia smiled: "No stimulation can compare to facing fear itself."

It has to be said that smart people look at things from the same perspective.

Draco's eyes flickered slightly, and he reacted immediately.

Lin Xia just said this sentence. As for what Draco will do next, that is his business.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

At this point, all the little wizards had fallen into a deep sleep.

Hermione and Draco opened their eyes from the bed at the same time, first cast an invisibility spell on themselves, and then quietly put on their wizard robes.

They left the dormitory very quietly.

Hermione and Draco thought of the same thing!

Tonight, they wanted to take the initiative to provoke the Dementors!

The two of them came to the common room smoothly. Draco's movements were faster than Hermione, because the Hufflepuff common room was not restricted.

As for Hermione, she encountered difficulties from the Fat Lady when she walked out of the common room.

"Dragon scum!"

Hermione still used the invisibility spell to hide herself and did not appear in front of the Fat Lady.

The Fat Lady was closing her eyes gracefully, and she lifted the eyelid of one eye when she heard the words and looked around.

Finding that there was no one, she continued to relax her eyelids and continued to fall asleep.

Hermione said anxiously: "Dragon scum! Fat Lady, I said the correct password, you have to open the door for me!"

The Fat Lady was completely awake now, opened her eyes and looked around, but still did not see any little wizard.

She shook her head and said: "No, little wizard, if you don't show your face, I won't open the door for you. Who knows if you are a dark wizard who sneaked in."

Hermione: "I have never heard of this condition."

The Fat Lady smiled calmly: "Now you know, and I will tell you one more thing. This condition will be implemented from tonight."

Hermione: ...

Even with her toes, the Fat Lady was targeting her!

Hermione wanted to say something, but the Fat Lady closed her eyes again.

She said "dragon scum" several times, but the Fat Lady ignored her.

Hermione had no choice but to remove her invisibility spell, revealing her face and body. She looked at the Fat Lady unhappily and said, "Is this okay now?"

The Fat Lady lifted her eyelids and glanced at her, and said seriously, "Little wizard, please tell me your password."

Hermione: "Dragon scum!"

The Fat Lady slowly opened the door for her, and said in a gloomy tone, "You went out so late, who knows if you are doing something servile.

You'd better pray that nothing dangerous will happen tonight, otherwise when the professor comes to investigate tomorrow, I will be the first to give you up..."

Hermione pretended not to hear what the Fat Lady said.

No matter what others said, she had made up her mind.

Ron could use the Patronus Charm, which greatly stimulated her proud heart!

At the same time, Draco had come to the second floor.

The second floor was the place he carefully selected because there was a huge floor-to-ceiling window here, and usually no one would patrol in front of the window.

The reason was that at this location, Dementors could always be seen flying in the sky.

It was strange to say that there were huge floor-to-ceiling windows on every floor of Hogwarts, and there were far more than one on each floor.

But it was the second floor that allowed people to see Dementors clearly, while the floor-to-ceiling windows on other floors could not, and no one knew why.

Draco sometimes wondered if the other floor-to-ceiling windows were shielded by some kind of magic, and only the second floor was not, so the little wizard could see it.

But it was also because of this that the little wizard basically would not go to the second floor.

Even if he went, he would never walk near the floor-to-ceiling window, even the patrol personnel did the same.

So if he went to the floor-to-ceiling window, he could protect himself from being discovered to the greatest extent.

Soon, Draco came to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

It was dark outside the window, and a high moon hung in the sky, casting a silvery moonlight on the earth.

Under the shining of this silver light, all the plants on the ground have distinct shadow gradients.

If you get closer, you can see the color and shape of the nearest green plants.

It is also under the shining of the moonlight that the sudden flash of black of the Dementors becomes extremely obvious, allowing people to distinguish them at once.

This is a dynamic black, and it is very deep black, no less than the black in the night sky, and far from the silent forest trees in the distance.

Draco looked up and counted silently in his heart: "One, two, three..."

He saw eight Dementors!

Draco wondered if he had counted wrong for a moment. Are there so many Dementors in normal times?

It seems not... Draco himself is not sure.

However, in front of so many Dementors, he has to open the window and face the fear itself...

He took a few deep breaths to prepare himself mentally.

"You can do it, Draco. Even Ron did it. You can do it!"

If Ron knew, he would be very angry and sad. When did he become a unit of measurement?

Just as he was about to open the window, a series of footsteps came, with a rush. (End of this chapter)
