Hogwarts Card System - Chapter 155

  Chapter 155 is up to you, Ansu!

  Hagrid opened the door, and there was Ted outside.

   “Oh Ted, hello! Are you here alone?”

   “Yes, I have something to enter the Forbidden Forest.”

When Hagrid heard this, a painful expression appeared on his face—as a gamekeeper, he should not let him enter the Forbidden Forest, but as a friend, he had to help. The most important thing is that Ted has the ability to protect himself in the Forbidden Forest. There is no reason to persuade him. I can’t help it!

   “Okay, okay, I know. What’s the matter this time?”

  Ted spent a lot of time in the Forbidden Forest in the second half of last year and gained a lot of experience. This relieved Hagrid of a lot of work.

  Actually, Hagrid also felt a little powerless in the past two years.

  Ten years ago, the guards of the Forbidden Forest were an easy group of people who fished every day, and when they were interested in hunting, they could earn a salary.

   But in recent years, it has become more and more difficult to do.

   First of all, more and more magical creatures from other worlds appeared in the Forbidden Forest.

  The area of ​​the Forbidden Forest is very vast, including the north and east of Hogwarts, and continues to the mountains hundreds of miles to the east and the Grand Canyon to the south.

  Because of the abundance of magic power, there are already a lot of magical creatures.

   As a result, because of the abundance of magic power, many magical creatures from other worlds also ran here.

  This breaks the original ecology and territorial scope, causing magical animals that would not have been seen in the fringe to appear frequently.

  Hagrid had to get them out of the way so they wouldn’t disturb the students at school.

   And those magical creatures from other worlds are even more troublesome. They suddenly appear in this world, frightened and irritable, and generally cannot be dealt with without hands.

   And more trouble is yet to come!

  With the diversification of various magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest, some dark wizards and traffickers wandering in the gray area are eyeing this place.

  In the past two years alone, more than ten people have been arrested, and there are as many as twenty gangs hit by Hagrid!

   This is not to mention those who are incompetent, careless or unlucky and stay in the Forbidden Forest forever.

  Although Dumbledore has strengthened his magic security and defense many times, he still doesn’t leave Hogwarts.

  Hagrid would find traces of some poachers in the Forbidden Forest for almost a month, sometimes they would meet and have a big fight, sometimes they couldn’t find them. All in all very tired.

   Last year, Ted dealt with many magical creatures that crossed the border outside the Forbidden Forest, and helped Hagrid solve many problems.

While pouring tea for Ted, Hagrid said, “The ice shield badge you gave me last time was really useful. A group of poachers were active in the Forbidden Forest a few days ago, thanks to your badge.” I was not attacked by them!”

   “Oh, that’s right!” He stood up and picked up the bearskin coat hanging on the wall. “This coat is simply amazing! It’s very beautiful, I like it very much!”

  Hagrid looked like a giant black bear in his bearskin coat!

  …

   Rubbing Fang Ya’s dog’s head, Ted said goodbye to Hagrid, and took Ansu into the Forbidden Forest.

  He needs to choose a suitable place. On the one hand, the magic power needs to be sufficient to draw the magic circle for the ritual part, and secondly, it needs to be quiet, so as not to attract any strange magical creatures to watch.

   After walking into the Forbidden Forest for more than an hour, Ted found a suitable location in a cave on a mound.

  Here is full of magic, but also quiet.

  Because the conditions here are very good, it also has an owner. A red hat.

  Look at the dark red and black hat, this thing has lived for some years, killed a lot of prey, the hat is dyed red.

   But facing Ted, it didn’t even resist.

  Through Parker’s blessing, Ted directly gave Red Hat a mental spike.

  The red hat felt a red-hot bamboo stick inserted into its brain, screamed in excruciating pain, and passed out.

  Ted sent a frostbolt to kill him. Also popped a card.

  [Elf Spirituality (White)], this is a material card, and Ted has exploded two before.

   “Hey! There is such a good thing!” Ted picked up the card with a smile on his face.

  Three card phantoms appeared in Ted’s hands, all with white frames [Fairy Spirituality (White)].

   “Consume 100 experience points to fuse cards.” Ted muttered in his heart.

  With the consumption of experience points, the three white cards disappeared, replaced by a card with a green border [Elf Spirituality (Green)].

   Cards can be fused and upgraded, but Ted has never used them before.

  The main reason is that there are not many cards, and it also consumes experience points, so he didn’t try it at all.

  Ted has a very clear plan for his own path, and everything is based on magic!

  Whether it is cards, experience points, or alien knowledge.

  But now is different, he needs this card.

  Originally two [Fairy Spirituality (White)] are enough, but it is better to have advanced ones.

  Ted took out various materials from his arms, silver powder, several potions and herbs, magic ink, body parts of darker magic creatures, obsidian, etc…

  Ten minutes later, a magical ritual array with a diameter of two meters appeared.

   “Ready?” Ted asked.

  Ansu gently landed in the center of the magic circle: “Come on, Quack~”

  Ted stretched out his wand: “Magic Awakens!”

  The magic power in Ted’s body began to surge out crazily, and began to flow along the magic circle circuit made of silver powder as the main material and other magic materials.

  The entire cave began to emit blue light.

  With the vortex caused by Ted’s magic power running in the magic circle, the free magic power in the Forbidden Forest environment began to gradually gather here.

  Ted breathed a sigh of relief and touched his slightly damp forehead.

  Under various bonuses, Ted is already at magic level lv8, which is the level of magic power at the dean level.

   But even so, Ted felt empty inside and a little unsteady.

  And the real source of magic power of this ritual magic is the magic power in the environment or even in the leylines.

   If it wasn’t in the Forbidden Forest, it would be hard for the outside world to find such a place.

  Ted felt the total amount of magic power gathered, and paid attention to the endurance of the materials in the magic circle.

  He opened his hand, and phantoms of three cards appeared in his hand.

  【Fine Spirituality (Green)】, this represents the spirituality of fine creatures.

  Although the quality level of the card is not high, it is because of the small quantity. In essence, this thing is very high-end.

  If Peeves can be killed, the purple-quality elf spirit will definitely burst out!

  At this time, Peeves, who was making trouble in the castle, suddenly felt a chill in the back of his head, and jumped into the wall to escape in surprise.

  【Magic Vision Haw (Blue)】, this is a card that explodes when you fight against monsters, and you can see the color of magic power. A very functional card. Ted felt that it would be good to add this ability to Anzu, and there would be no possibility of repulsion and attribute conflicts.

  The last is 【Dark Stone (Red)】, a gem representing the huge power of darkness.

  He also has a material card [Holy (Blue)], but it probably doesn’t fit very well, so forget it.

  At this time, the leaves of the trees hundreds of meters nearby swayed uncontrollably towards the cave, and even the magical animals one kilometer away looked around in panic.

  However, this phenomenon lasted for more than ten seconds. After Ted felt that the magic circle had reached its limit, he cut off the follow-up ceremony.

   At this time, the blue light in the center of the magic circle was too bright to look directly at, and it didn’t gradually dim until more than ten seconds later.

  Ansu spread his wings in the magic circle, and lines of magic power flashed on each feather.

  Seeing that Ansu returned to his original form, Ted asked, “Ansu, are you okay?”

   “Shu Tan, Quack~ I want to do it again, Quack~”

   One more time and I’m going broke!

  Ansu upgrade! Dark Raven~

  …

  In the library, Ted looked up the information carefully, and there were several stacks of magic books about emotions such as the happiness spell.

  The happy spell was taught by Professor Flitwick in the spell class yesterday.

  This spell is more difficult, mainly in terms of control.

  It is not difficult to use this spell, and a few talented students successfully cast it in class.

   The problem is strength!

  Harry cast a happy spell on Ron, and Ron laughed so hard that his nose and tears flowed from the laughter, and he almost lost his breath.

   Neville’s jaw was dislocated by Jerry’s Happy Charm.

   When the class was over, all the students except Ted had weird smiles on their faces, scaring the students who were coming to class, how weird it looked!

   This is not a very important spell, but Ted thinks it is worth researching.

  Because it involves emotions, which is the domain of psionic powers.

  Based on the knowledge about brain science and psychology he acquired in Muggle society, Ted conducted an in-depth analysis and research on this spell in order to develop psionic power.

   From the perspective of internal medicine, it is various endocrine products that control people’s emotions, such as dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, etc., which act on the nervous system.

  From the perspective of brain science, scientists divide the brain into three layers: the bottom reptile brain is responsible for instinct, the middle mammalian brain is responsible for emotions, and the outer neobrain (probably the frontal lobe) is responsible for logic and rationality.

  From a psychological point of view, it corresponds to the triple consciousness model: unconscious, subconscious and main consciousness…

  Some people are very emotional, it may be because the middle brain is too strong and the outer layer cannot control it, or it may be excessive subconscious interference…

  Ted’s psychic power was throbbing in his mind, and a new kind of psychic power was being produced: emotional provocation.

  Use psychic energy to interfere with the target’s middle brain and subconscious mind, and provoke the birth and disappearance of various emotions of the other party…

   Thanks for the 100-point reward from book friend “tail number 6444″~
