Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 922: Split
Chapter 924 Split
Entering February, the temperature around Hogwarts rose slightly, and the snow that had accumulated throughout the winter began to show signs of melting, and the castle became cold and humid.
In order to avoid delaying regular classes, the apparition class was arranged by the school on Saturday morning.
Driven by curiosity and anticipation, everyone woke up early on Saturday.
However, since they heard that practicing apparation is not a comfortable thing, everyone didn't dare to eat breakfast, fearing that they would spit it out while practicing apparation.
Except for someone, of course.
When they walked to the playground outside the castle, they were surprised to find that McGonagall, Snape, Flitwick and Professor Sprout had all appeared on the playground, and the little wizard who was with them should be from the Ministry of Magic The Apparition class instructor who came.
When nine o'clock was approaching, Professor McGonagall took the list and called them one by one. After signaling everyone to keep quiet, he nodded to the wizard to indicate that it was time to start.
"My name is Vikki Tecrosse." The wizard from the Ministry of Magic introduced himself: "In the next twelve weeks, I will serve as your Apparation instructor, and I hope I can help you prepare for this time. Get ready for the Apparition exam, and I'm sure many of you will be taking the Apparation exam by then."
"In the next hour, I will teach you how to Apparate." Tycross swung his wand and conjured an old-fashioned wooden circle in front of each student,
"Before then, there is one thing I need to emphasize. You only need to apparate into your own wooden circle. Your own foothold, perfect apparition, even the slightest mistake, will lead to failure of the exam."
Everyone got together to discuss in whispers, and finally calmed down again with the help of several professors.
Tekros began to explain the most important three D's when Apparating. Everyone listened carefully and couldn't wait to try Apparating for the first time.
Everyone got their wish soon, and when the wizard of the Ministry of Magic yelled one two three, the first Apparation attempt began.
For Albert, who had already mastered apparition, it was obviously not difficult to apparate into the five-foot wooden circle.
However, for students trying to apparate for the first time, it is almost impossible to apparate for the first time, and it also makes a lot of funny jokes.
Several students accidentally fell to the ground because of spinning their bodies, and another jumped into the wooden ring spinning, which caused a burst of laughter.
However, the most surprising thing was not that Albert succeeded in Apparating for the first time, but that Fred encountered a little trouble.
He split up.
Yes, Fred is separated, without an arm.
"Look, Mr. Anderson succeeded."
Wicky Tycross was surprised that Albert could successfully Apparate for the first time, and his posture was quite elegant, as if he was dreaming. He couldn't help but wonder if the guy in front of him had mastered Apparation a long time ago , otherwise, how could there really be a genius who can succeed once, then others would not be able to survive.
Then, Wicky Tycross shifted his eyes to the target of people whispering, and there was a split red-haired student, his left hand was left in place, the situation was not too bad.
"Split body." Tecross said lightly: "Split body is easy to appear when the determination is not firm enough, so you must always focus on the target."
While Tycross was speaking, the four deans had gathered around Fred, only to hear a loud bang, and after a burst of purple smoke cleared, Fred's arm was reattached.
Wicky Tecross found that this year's Hogwarts students seemed to have more talent for Apparation than he expected. Appearance is very talented, although there is a split, but the situation is not bad, especially the two red-haired boys, he believes that as long as the other party practices hard, they should be able to pass the Apparition test in one go.
"See you next Saturday, everyone, don't forget: goal, determination, calmness." Tycross waved his wand to eliminate the wooden circle, and walked towards the school gate alone.
After the apparition class ended, Albert was immediately surrounded by a group of people. Everyone was asking him how he could succeed in the first time. Fred, George and Lee Jordan also Becoming the object of people's attention, only the three of them have achieved separation, and more than once, which means that they are not far from the success of apparation.
"You need to concentrate all your thoughts on the destination, and imagine it clearly in your mind." Albert said to everyone: "Close your eyes, if you can feel a terrifying squeeze If the pressure sensation appears, it is basically considered a success."
"This is not the same as the three Ds that the professor said." Someone said.
"I can only say that I have personal experience. Anyway, as long as I can apparate successfully, I don't need to pay too much attention to these issues." Albert shrugged and walked towards the castle.
"You are right."
During lunch, Fred lisps: "I feel like I'm getting it, I'm just not used to it yet."
"How does it feel to be separated?"
"It's not good, you lose control of the other part, and I suspect that if the head flies away and the body stays in place, you may die directly." George joked that he was the one who progressed in Apparation among the three. The fastest, although lost some hair and nails.
"How on earth did you do it."
Sanna sat across from them with food, intending to ask a few people about the secret of Apparation.
It is not difficult for them to understand that Albert can do it. After all, they have seen the magic of Albert. As for Fred, George, and Lee Jordan being faster than anyone else, that's a bit dubious.
"It's actually very simple. You only need to do Apparition a few more times to experience the feeling, and then be bold when you try, and you will be able to quickly master the trick." George explained in a low voice.
Sanna looked at Albert and suddenly understood.
This is for Albert to take them to experience Apparition.
"You guys are so bold!" Shanna whispered.
Albert obviously led the three of them to apparate several times, and had experienced the feeling of apparating in advance, plus boldly letting go and trying, so it is not surprising that the apparation progress of the three of them is faster than others.
"Teach me anytime, I feel that Apparition is very difficult." Although Shanna also practiced Apparation very hard, she didn't make any progress at all. She was a little worried that she would not be able to pass Apparation this time take an exam.
"Let's go to Hogsmeade next time!" Albert did not refuse.
"That's great." Shanna said excitedly.
"That's how you learned it too?" Lee Jordan asked ~IndoMTL.com~ I guess. Albert nodded and said, "At the beginning, when Professor Bard taught me Apparition, he also took me to experience the feeling of Apparition. "
"Why don't you teach us Apparation too?" Fred suggested, "We can practice in the woods."
"I can't put your bodies back together when you are separated." Albert raised his brows slightly, warning them not to die, "I will find time to find Professor McGonagall some other day , learn how to deal with split bodies, if you want to try, I don’t mind, anyway, it’s definitely not me who will be caught by the Ministry of Magic and fined a large sum of money.”
"Forget it then." The three of them shook their heads in unison, instantly extinguishing their thoughts of dying.
Although they all want to learn apparation as soon as possible, there is obviously no need to risk their wallets and lives. If they are really fined at that time, the family may send them a shouting letter.
"Professor Bard taught you Apparation?" Shanna asked in surprise.
"Yes, we have been in correspondence with each other."
Sanna breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that Albert had started learning apparation in the first grade.
