Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 537: Tracking and Countermeasures
The quest reward of "Magic Forbidden Zone" is the level of a certain skill +1, which means that the higher the level of the skill, the more valuable the reward will be.
Currently, the highest level of Albert's skills is the 5th level wizard bloodline. The second highest is Occlumency 4, and the rest of the skills are only 3, 2 or 1.
After three seconds of serious consideration, Albert finally accepted the quest's reward and raised the wizard's bloodline to level 6. Although the improvement of the bloodline was of little significance to his own strength, Albert still Upgrade your skills.
Perhaps, the wizard blood can be passed on to his offspring?
Of course, it's also related to Albert's desire to see where the level limit of the skill is!
The answer is... six.
Well, the wizard bloodline on the skill panel has directly changed to max.
To be honest, the experience required to upgrade the panel skills is actually quite pitiful.
The further back you go, the more experience you need, and the harder it is to use skills to gain experience.
Only 100 experience points are required to upgrade to level 1; 2000 experience points are required to continue to upgrade to level 2; 10,000 experience points are required to continue to upgrade to level 3; 200,000 experience points.
As for level 6, Albert doesn't know, he only knows that his experience pool has 65,300 experience points, which is enough to directly upgrade a certain skill to level 4, but that's all.
Even in the near future, it is destined to be unlikely to master too many third-level skills.
Albert pulled out his wand and chanted an obstacle spell on the battle puppet in front of him. The puppet seemed to be hit by a truck and flew out, hitting a far wall with a loud bang.
"The spell is more powerful."
The wizard's bloodline has been upgraded to full level, and the overall effect is still very good.
If I say it's gratifying, it's probably that the threshold for learning silent spells and wandless spellcasting has become lower.
There is a reason pure-blood wizards pursue magical powers, and those with stronger magical powers are more likely to learn most spells than others in the same situation.
"Next, it's the basilisk problem." Albert put away his wand and began to think about how to use the basilisk incident to gain another wave of experience.
This kind of basilisk still makes Albert more afraid.
He wants to use the basilisk incident to win another special contribution award. Then, with the help of next year's Black incident, "There have been three things happened" completely.
Among the many panel quests, "Three things happened" is probably the most valuable of all the quests, "Acquire a designated level 3 skill."
It means that Albert can let himself learn to make a magic stone; or skip the complicated process and quickly master the transformation of Animagus; even master the super dangerous and unstable spell such as the hour reversal spell , there is no need to worry about the manufacture of the time converter.
Although Albert does not know when Ginny Weasley will open the Chamber of Secrets to access the basilisk, the first attack was on Halloween.
To know the whereabouts of Ginny Weasley, it is actually very simple, that is, through the Marauder's map, but it is very troublesome to find people through the Marauder's map.
He intends to use the Tracking Charm, the Tracking Charm and the Tracing Charm to create a simple map specifically for Ginny Weasley's location.
It's just that the human-traveling spell Albert doesn't use it yet.
After much consideration, Albert decided to ask Professor Flitwick to teach him this spell. The relationship between the two parties is not bad, and the possibility of the other party teaching him is quite high. If you have a good relationship with the professors, you can always get some benefit.
Albert went directly to Professor Flitwick's office, and happened to meet Lockhart, who was "gifted" by the Cursed Professor on the way.
"Good evening, Professor Lockhart." Albert greeted Lockhart with a smile.
"Good evening, Mr. Anderson. Do you have anything to do with Professor Flitwick now? Maybe I can help you out!"
However, as soon as Lockhart said the words, he began to regret why he was talking too much.
"That's right, the last time I was in America, I read a spell called the Tracing Charm in the spell book at Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and wanted to ask Professor Flitwick for some advice. "
"The Mantra?" Lockhart said after pretending to think. "I'm sorry, I don't have much research on the Mantra. Professor Flitwick is in his office. Maybe he can answer your question."
With that, Lockhart walked away quickly.
Looking at Lockhart's leaving back, Albert was a little disappointed. He originally thought that the other party would say something like "I need me to teach you".
After Lockhart left, Albert turned and walked to the Spell Office, raising his hand and knocking on the door.
The door opened quickly, and Professor Flitwick seemed relieved to see that it was Albert.
"Mr. Anderson, do you have anything to do with me?" Professor Charms invited Albert into the room with a smile.
"It's like this..."
Albert simply made up a story, saying that when he went to the United States for the summer vacation, he found the humanoid spell in the American spells textbook, so he came to ask Professor Flitwick about the humanoid spell.
"Is there a spell textbook for the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the United States?" Professor Flitwick seemed interested in the spell textbook on the American side.
"The spell textbook at Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is called Charwick's Magic." Albert explained, "It's a little different from the Standard Spells we're learning now."
"I don't know if I can get it in China. If not, I'm afraid I have to go through other channels." Professor Flitwick muttered.
"Professor Flitwick, I've got a set if you need it."
"That's great, about a week is enough. Oh oh, almost forgot, the Mantra!" Professor Flitwick took out a piece of parchment, drew a simple map on it, and gave Ai Burt demonstrates the casting process of the Mantra Charm.
After casting the spell, there were additional footprints marking the names of the two on the parchment.
"This is the Tracing Spell," explained Professor Flitwick. "This spell is usually used in conjunction with a map, where the location of everyone within the map is displayed as ink dots on the map, and the changing as everyone moves.”
"The larger the scope of the human footprint spell, the greater the number of people manifested, and the higher the requirements for the spell."
Professor Flitwick taught Albert to try it out after teaching the mantra and the wand swing. This spell is very difficult, and it takes a lot of effort to learn it.
Professor Flitwick, however, was shocked to discover that Albert had mastered the Human Tracing Charm in no time.
"Although I don't know what you want to do, I hope you don't leave other people's information randomly, and I don't think you should," Professor Flitwick reminded.
"I just want to use this spell to lock my cat," Albert explained casually. "It's called Tom, and it's just a very ordinary Muggle pet cat, not really smart. Last time, it was from After running out of my dorm, I almost lost it, and I'm too scared to bring it to school now. If I can master this spell, I'll be able to find Tom's location in the first place."
Professor Flitwick looked at Albert and reminded: "If you want to lock a cat alone, I'm afraid you need to practice spells harder to achieve precise control, are there any other problems? "
"Is there a counter-curse to the Human Tracing Curse?" Albert thought for a while and asked, "Is there any way to block the Human Tracing Curse?"
"This..." Professor Flitwick said, "It should be no problem to use a shielding spell, a powerful enough shielding spell that can well conceal the existence of witches and wizards and make them untraceable."
Professor Flitwick personally demonstrated to Albert how to use the Shielding Spell to block the Tracing Charm. After Professor Flitwick used the Shielding Spell on himself, only Albert's footnotes were left on the map.
Albert was silent. He had tried a shielding spell but failed. Now he tried again, looking at the footprints on the map, and still failed.
"Your shielding spell isn't strong enough," explained Professor Flitwick.
"Does it involve the advanced use of shielding spells?" Albert raised his eyebrows~IndoMTL.com~Professor Flitwick, can you teach me the advanced use of shielding spells. "
"You want to learn the advanced use of shielding spells?" Professor Flitwick raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I heard that the Ministry of Magic used trace wires on students."
"You want to block the trace wire?" Professor Flitwick looked at Albert in surprise, then shook his head and said, "Even a powerful shielding spell, I'm afraid it won't be able to block the trace wire."
"Why?"
Albert couldn't help but ask his doubts.
“The Trace Thread is a contract magic that is improved from various spells such as Tracking Spell, Tracing Spell, Tracking Spell, etc. It is not so easy to be blocked.” Professor Flitwick recalled, “The Ministry of Magic is designing this I thought about this issue when I planted a spell. At the beginning, the prototype of Tracesilk was designed to monitor certain wizards, so that they can know where they are and what spells they are using.”
"However, traces can also make mistakes and misjudgments."
"It's normal, because traces need to be used in conjunction with special magic items." Professor Flitwick explained, "But students are not criminals or suspects, so the Ministry of Magic later changed it to the form of a contract. to monitor an area around students for the use of magic."
"You can find loopholes to bypass something like a magic contract, but it is difficult to block or crack it."
In the end, Albert still got his wish and let Professor Flitwick teach him how to master the advanced use of shielding spells, but the advanced use of spells cannot be mastered in a moment. Use, after Professor Flitwick asked Albert to learn the advanced use of shielding spells, he needed to publish a related paper on shielding spells in "Magic Innovation".
