A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 189: 7 looking glasses
"The first is the magic puppet, since you all understand, let's quickly skip this part."
Felix flicked his fingers, and the magic puppet on the table moved quickly, making various unimaginable movements under his control, and finally, the magic puppet released a fireball to end.
The little wizards looked at Felix helplessly, and he smiled softly: "After the class is over, I will send one to each person, without any restrictions, I hope this will become a Hogwarts tradition .Before next Tuesday, you can enjoy the fun of the magic puppet battle."
Hermione's eyes were fixed on the puppet with ice-blue hair, and she saw the same fiery gaze, which was the Slytherin girl named "Greengrass".
She pursed her lips, she would never back down!
She has been looking forward to it for a whole year.
The brown-haired **** the opposite side returned the same look, and they both realized that the war had begun.
"Next, there are seven pocket looking glasses."
Felix walked from one side of the podium to the other, slid his left hand across the tabletop, the ring was glowing with light, a row of looking glasses appeared on the tabletop, and the little wizard stretched his neck to look around.
"What you see are seven kinds of looking glasses. Now, to give you a sense of participation, I want to ask: What is a looking glass"
Hermione raised her hand, but Felix named Draco Malfoy for balance.
Draco stood up and said, "That's a kind of detector, which is used to call the police. My father said that the sight glasses sold in the market are all rubbish, and the sight glasses in our house are all custom-made."
Felix glanced at him: "This only represents the views of a few people...Let me say that in the eighteenth century, the wizard Edgar Strogg invented the prototype of the looking glass, that It is a black magic detector, shaped like a spinning top that is commonly used today. But in fact, magic items with similar functions can be traced back thousands of years ago, although it was not called this name at the time...
If we look at it from the perspective of a newcomer, we can think that the sight glass is a general term for a class of detection and alarm supplies.
In modern times, the division is more detailed, and many derivative magic items have been born-such as Gringotts' Honesty Detector, its shape is completely deviated from the original design, and it looks like a slender golden antenna ;
Or, a secret detector, which can detect plots or lies;
The functions of the looking glass we have seen so far are basically limited to finding suspicious people or detecting some black magic.
But in fact...
It can do more.
For example, warnings for specific magic;
For a certain behavior;
Even, it is aimed at a specific bloodline, so that...a certain person. "
Felix's words were astonishing, completely overturning the little wizards' understanding of the looking glass.
Slytherin students are mostly skeptical, which is contrary to the education they have received since childhood.
But some people firmly believe in Felix's words——
For example, Ron is not opposed to having a looking glass for Malfoy, think about it, as long as he gets close to him within 100 feet, he will get the news, he can hide in the grass, or behind the gatepost in the courtyard , Waiting for an opportunity to cast a curse on Malfoy.
He is willing to pay a whole year's pocket money for this, and it would be even better if he could make it himself.
"Professor, so if I hate a person, I can make a looking glass for him"
Ron said loudly, looking at Draco Malfoy unabashedly.
Draco's expression became menacing, and he squinted his eyes and said, "Weasley, you might be able to put a looking glass in your house... to keep out rats, and if you lose a Nat, you Mom won't cry sadly"
"Malfoy, you bastard..."
"Okay, don't make any noise. Otherwise, fifty points will be deducted from each, plus three weeks of confinement." Felix said speechlessly. He didn't realize that Malfoy's mocking skills were so strong before.
"As for Weasley's previous question, the answer is that I can do it, as for you, don't even think about it..."
"It's better to train your eyes to be smarter."
Professor Haipu's words made everyone feel helpless. After hearing his description, the little wizards really had thoughts similar to Ron's. You must know that everyone has one or two annoying people.
But Neville's thinking is more normal. He very much hopes that there will be a special looking glass to remind him not to lose everything, but he is worried that he will lose this looking glass-this is not impossible, he That's how the memory ball is missing.
Depressedly, Neville wrote down 'Auspicious Stars' on a piece of parchment, which is the password for the Gryffindor common room, but he can't always remember it. Write the word anywhere you can see it.
According to his thinking, as long as he has enough places to record the password, he no longer has to worry about forgetting the password, even if he is lucky, he can get it right once or twice...
"Okay, let's take a look at these seven looking glasses." Felix waved his wand casually, causing a brown chestnut wood looking glass the size of a fist to float into the air on the podium.
"The first type, the most common type, is sold on the market. At most, there are some changes in shape. The pertinence is not strong, the effect is mediocre, and it is easy to make mistakes. The advantage is that it is easy to make and cheap."
"But it is barely enough to defend against dangerous creatures when camping in the wild."
"The second type, similar to the Honest Detector, can discover the hidden spells of wizards."
"The third type is for black magic. I can find seventeen kinds of worse black magic, including the Unforgivable Curse."
He shook out a heavy black light ~IndoMTL.com~ The sight glass immediately issued a sharp alarm sound.
The little wizards in the audience looked at Felix in silence, the black light seemed to be able to lock any light. But he continued to talk with his usual expression——
"The fourth type is aimed at specific spells. It is essentially a derivative of the third type of looking glass, but its scope of application is more flexible. The one in front of me is aimed at disarming spells. Does anyone want to try it?"
Felix asked, pointing to a gray looking glass the size of a walnut.
All eyes were on Harry, who, in recent rumors, single-handedly killed a group of Dementors with the Disarming Charm.
Draco didn't believe this set of rhetoric at all. He firmly believed that the various versions that appeared so far were all fake, putting aside all kinds of embellishments: Potter met a dementor and then fainted. This is the truth of the matter.
So he mouthed "dementor" to Harry.
Harry was a little nervous, but also a little excited. He looked at Draco provocatively, and waved his wand casually. Without a sound, an arc of red light flashed across the Slytherin students' seats.
All the while, he wasn't paying attention to his spell, but to Draco.
To Harry's satisfaction, he turned pale.
As Harry's spell was activated, the gray looking glass in mid-air spun around, flashing red light non-stop, and beeping.
Felix explained: "Did you see, the looking glass for specific spells, this is the case. It doesn't seem to be useful, but if you put a looking glass for regular 'unlocking spells' in the room , may be able to play a role of surprise.”
"And the last one, is for a specific feeling. I'm here for the 'joy' looking glass, funny isn't it? If you're going to tell a joke, it will help you understand the true emotions of your audience."
"Anyone want to try it?"
