From Azkaban To Hogwarts

In the Forbidden Forest, most of the early summer sunshine was blocked by the trees, and it only felt a little warm when it fell on his face. However, William didn't even have the slightest intention of appreciating it. He leaned against a dead tree, thinking hard.

'replace…'

The prank the twins played on their younger brother was obviously just an ordinary book, but after being replaced several times, it became a fiction that would not be damaged.

‘But in terms of magic, where should this substitution be used? ’

When he was in Azkaban, he knew that there was a wizard who was sent in for fraud. In fact, the goods displayed by the other party were genuine every time, but after the customers inspected them, they would make false changes when the goods were delivered to the customers. Replacing the items with inferior imitations, it worked every time - of course, in the end I was wronged because I deceived an Auror who was on vacation...

He had told William that almost all wizards would let their guard down after careful inspection, as long as they were greedy enough.

Because the goods he sells are much lower than the market price, and he also pretends not to understand the market, this will make the buyer choose to complete the transaction quickly after confirming that the goods are genuine.

‘But, these two substitutions are completely different...Why would I think of this? ’

'You can't just disapparate quickly when you encounter danger...'

'It's not impossible...if you use multiple fakes to confuse you, you'll definitely be able to escape easily...'

‘No, that’s not it. It was definitely not what attracted me at the time! ’

William shook his head vigorously. The replacement he was thinking of was definitely not that kind of replacement, but a very confusing one...

"Yes, yes, it is a steady stream of substitutions and transformations!"

He pulled out his wand, and in the open space ahead was a spring of clear water. He summoned a large amount of clear water, and then it was fixed in mid-air, becoming a transparent white sphere.

"Try the transfiguration again..."

He raised his left hand and began to deform the controlled water ball - the water ball was infinitely compressed, and then strands of ice needles were quickly condensed into the ball until a water ball tall enough for a person was frozen into a ghost flying ball. The size of a ball is like a hockey puck with infinite cracks.

"That's right, supplement... supplement..."

A bit of excitement appeared on William's face. He used his left hand to keep the ice ball in the air, and then began to use his right hand to perform the black magic he was best at - as the purple magic spell hit the ice ball, the ice ball began to look beautiful. The blue color shines brightly in the sky.

He felt a little tired, but during this period he had been studying the transformation technique in depth so that he could maintain the shape of the hockey puck.

"The last step."

William used the wand in his right hand to hold the ice ball steadily, and began to perform the last transformation spell with his left hand.

"go!"

He waved his left hand, and the ice ball began to spin at high speed, and then flew forward at high speed under the influence of the magic spell.

'The flying speed is still slower than ordinary spells...'

While William was judging this new spell from behind, the high-speed flying ice ball began to quickly throw out light blue ice edges under the action of the transformation spell.

The fine ice crystals refracted the light in the sunlight, and then fell on the surrounding trees and grass - they did not penetrate directly into the trees, but stuck to them like water droplets, and then quickly froze. .

The world that was already green in the middle of summer was suddenly dyed into a cold white, but the instigator's ice ball didn't even have the consciousness to slow down for a moment, and still continued to throw out the deadly light blue ice edges. Under the high-speed rotation, this deadly white color with cruel roar spread all over the land on the trajectory.

When it roared and hit a frozen tree, the frozen tree exploded into debris like ice cubes, while the ice ball itself moved backwards mercilessly. Smashing it at high speed, it didn't completely lose its forward momentum until it destroyed the eighth huge tree, and then it shattered into shiny ice slag on the ground.

'This power...'

William grinned as he looked at the place where almost half of the street had been destroyed - the power seemed to be greater than he imagined.

He quickly walked to the place where the ice ball passed. The plants had been frozen into pieces, like things that had been weathered for countless years. He stepped lightly with his feet and they were all broken - even he only needed The wind brought out when walking is enough.

'This effect can only be achieved when using this spell with all your strength...'

'But it seems that the damage to the soul is weakened - is it due to transfiguration or compression? ’

He tried to remove the freezing effect on a tree that had not yet broken into pieces - the usual method of removing the spell was a bit awkward at the moment, but it still worked. After about a minute, he initially judged that the tree was still alive, but it had already Suffered unusually serious damage.

"And one unlucky rabbit..."

With sharp eyes, he noticed the accidentally injured life, waved his wand and began to try to break the curse.

It worked this time - although the rabbit was seriously injured, it could still be saved.

"The effect is amazing..."

William once again confirmed the magic effect and waved the wand casually. Under the attack of the wind, the frozen trees were quickly blown into pieces and finally disappeared.

"You must not use it on people at will... Even Li Huo didn't have such terrifying lethality before he grew up..."

"It's just that it takes a little longer to cast the spell, and I'm not skilled enough. Moreover, if it is hit in the early stages of flight, it may cause damage to one's own side... But this problem is not big. I just need to increase the speed of the ice ball leaving my hand. And adding some defense would do the trick..."

He figured out the changes in the spell and was going to find a spacious place to practice - the new spell had just taken shape, and there were many areas that needed to be figured out and corrected. He really couldn't continue to harm the place where the forest was too dense.

"You seem very busy lately, Professor William."

After Lu Ping corrected his homework, he stood up and looked at the time. He found that William was still working on the thick pile of information at the table, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Absolutely..." William raised his head, moved his shoulders, and then looked at the time, "Is it already this time?"

He inserted the bookmark into the book, and then began to look for snacks from his desk. After choosing a pack of gummy bears for himself, he raised his head and asked Lupine, "What do you want?"

"A chocolate frog," Lupine hesitated for a moment, "but didn't you say you don't dare to eat sweets recently?"

"Well..." William looked at the things in his hands, "I recently found a better way to consume the negative effects of candy and chocolate."

As he spoke, he demonstrated with his left hand, "This is what it looks like..."

As he waved his left hand, a small ball of floating water appeared on the palm of his hand. As William slowly pushed it with his hand, the water ball began to gradually enlarge and then enlarge, and gradually gathered into a water ball that was enough to wrap his left hand. .

"This is?"

Lupine stared at it for a long time, but still couldn't tell how this thing could be related to weight loss.

"An improved spell that brings clear water like a spring. I've been busy with this recently."

"But it?"

"It has nothing to do with exercise?" William smiled, "Let me keep it a secret, Professor, this is a trump card... The world is getting more and more chaotic, and we have to prepare in advance."

"Yeah..." Lu Ping sighed, "It's becoming increasingly difficult to see the situation over there."

"Speaking of which, I have to experiment again. I probably won't have dinner. Maybe there will be new progress this time - I've been very lucky recently."

"Then good luck to you, Professor William."

William left with half a bag of uneaten gummies, leaving Lupin behind to guard the office.

Just as Lupine was thinking about the content of the next class, Moody opened the door to the office with a smile on his face, and behind him, the twins were brought in like quails.

"It's them again?"

Lupine looked at the twins in surprise, "I remember that their confinement has not expired, right?"

"Of course... I just have to be busier now."

Moody grinned, with an unattractive smile on his face, "These two guys actually wanted to break through the new defense check to collect the owl's mail, and I caught them."

'The protective measures have actually been updated...'

Fred used the corner of his eye to communicate with his brothers. They were caught unawares while collecting a bag of dung eggs.

‘It doesn’t matter, lower your presence and see if there is any news you can find out. ’

"It's true... I was responsible for the last confinement. Where are you going to let them work?"

Lu Ping shook his head helplessly, he didn't care this time.

"Don't worry, I have to find out what they shipped in before. This time period is chaotic. I have to carefully interrogate how many loopholes they found."

"Be careful, Professor Moody. Don't allow the human body to deform, even if the situation is tense now."

"Okay, okay, I understand, the situation is tense..."

Moody waved his hand, his tone a little perfunctory.

——

"The situation is tense..."

The twins didn't find out many meaningful things after coming out of the office - or in other words, expecting to find out information from a legendary Auror was not that reliable in itself.

"Everyone is talking about the tense situation. The last letter from home is also talking about it, Bill has sent gifts for Easter, and even Percy's big head has mentioned it..."

Fred glanced at George, "They all said something was wrong, but it's just that the American wizarding world has a new president of the Magic Congress..."

"Yeah, the atmosphere in the school is not right either. Don't you think the professors are acting weird this year?"

"There are so many. Even Professor William doesn't assign a lot of homework. The other professors have also lightened their homework appropriately. Ron and the others don't have much homework for Easter..."

"I always feel like they are hiding something from us..."

"We can't be deceived like this...as if we are just children..."

The two of them looked at me and I looked at you. As soon as this hidden psychology emerged, the original progress of the prank suddenly lost its original motivational effect.

It's like when playing wizard chess, the opponent is already planning to kill your king, but you are still moving forward tirelessly, expecting to see what happens after the end.

"We need to figure it out... Before we figure everything out, let's put the plan on hold, right?"

George looked at Fred with a hint of consultation in his eyes.

Just like they would never attack Ron with a Bludger during the game, if they were really nervous right now, they would not be willing to make some inappropriate pranks.

"Okay, and I suggest we ask that person."

"Karkaroff?"

"Of course, Karkaroff."

——

[Now there is chaos. Many Durmstrang graduates are preparing to go to the American wizarding world after graduation after hearing similar slogans. 】

[Sorry, my friends, I originally expected you to have a pleasant graduation trip to Durmstrang after graduation, but now it seems that we may not have time to organize this trip. 】

[The chaos is not only in the school, the nearby magic world is also a bit bad. As far as I am concerned, I do not recommend that you apply to go to other countries after graduation, and I sincerely hope that you will not participate in the other side of the ocean. As things go, I always feel that there is more danger than I thought...]

…

"That's all. It seems that our friend doesn't understand what happened yet - he is also lobbying the surrounding magical world to be more vigilant."

"At home, Percy, Bill, and even the professor and our friend the principal are all talking nonsense and vague things."

George raised the letter in his hand, "Especially the school, haven't you noticed? In fact, before the turmoil, the school seemed to realize that something was wrong, but they never admitted it."

"The source is the American wizarding world..."

"It turned out that they seemed to be wearing a veil and refused to lift it at all..."

The two looked at each other, and then there was surprise in their eyes.

"Do you remember third grade?"

"Of course, George."

"At that time, we used some snowballs to deal with the scarf that never refused to fall."

"Yeah, it's really nostalgic. Remember what I said at the end of the third grade. Although I don't know whether it's true or not, there is something amazing hidden under the scarf. We hit a lot of snowballs..."

"Let's make some more snowballs and pull a big prank?"

"Isn't this too risky?"

George looked like he was persuading, but his eyes were full of excitement.

"Of course, why not? Since everyone is secretive, how about we throw the snowball out this time and see what is hidden under the veil."

"But we haven't prepared much for the exam yet."

"To hell with the exam - well, for the sake of the professor, let's finish smashing the snowballs this time and come back for the exam."

Fred said excitedly, and the two of them looked at each other with a light of exploration into the unknown - this was even more enjoyable than the last time they stole the Marauder's Map from Filch's office.
