Chapter 1025 Mine Is Bigger than Yours!

"...Can't figure it out yet?"

"Yeah! It doesn't look that easy."

In the early morning of the next day, on the hillside outside the school gate, Maca was sitting on the floor holding a stack of manuscript paper.

It can be seen that there is still a small stack of waste manuscripts pressed with stones beside him, which are also filled with various sketches, formulas and notes.

It has been more than half a month since I escaped from that black and white space last time. This time Maca wanted to take the initiative to go in again, but unfortunately without the guidance of the round stone slab, he has not been able to find a way to go back until now.

And more importantly, the magic node that Luna discovered when he came out that time has also disappeared without a trace.

As a result, Maca, who hadn't suspected anything before, had to guess now—the round stone slab that was buried deep in the ground might just be something that Haierbo left there on purpose to disturb his sight.

Stuck another piece of parchment under the rock, Maca put down the stack of blank manuscript papers piled up on him, and then stretched his waist.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past quietly, while stirring the blades of grass around him, it also inadvertently took away a few pages of paper.

Subconsciously, he wanted to wave his hand to bring back those manuscript papers, but he was taken aback for a second, and then he got up obediently and picked them up with his own hands.

No way, there are Muggles in front of the hillside right now, so it's best not to show his magic easily.

After picking up the blank manuscript papers that had been blown away one by one, he saw Maca standing there, and turned his head to look not far away.

The first thing that comes into view is naturally the huge panel.

On a pedestal about the size of the Burrow of the Weasleys, there was a square metal panel with a support frame. The panel was facing straight to the sky, and there was hardly any inclination.

There is no doubt that this is the Muggle detection weapon Maca borrowed from the old bishop and the Queen of England through the mouth of Scrimgeour—the early warning radar.

Of course, since many devices are still in the process of being assembled, this thing can only look at it for the time being.

If it is said whether this big guy can be put into normal use in the end, it may have to wait until the trial run, depending on the "face" of Hogwarts.

After all, the large amount of magic in Hogwarts Castle will have a huge impact on modern electrical equipment. Even if the radar is placed on the hillside outside the school gate, it may not be able to avoid interference!

On this point, even Maca can't be sure.

"If it can be used, at least it should be able to determine the position of the meteorite after it broke into the atmosphere in time." He raised his head and looked at the blue sky, thinking to himself.

In fact, using the early warning radar is not a great idea, after all, the data provided by Maca includes the specific time and landing point.

But the main problem is how to destroy it in a few tens of seconds after it enters the atmosphere.

According to old Victor's calculations, it is absolutely impossible for a missile to complete such a arduous task, because as long as it cannot be detonated, no matter how powerful it is, it will be useless.

Therefore, at that time, the task of trying to destroy the big boulder falling at high speed can only fall on Maca's head.

After looking at the sky for a while, he couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

"Do you want to keep counting?"

Beside Maca, the windbreaker wizard who always followed him suddenly asked again.

"Of course."

...

When Maca outside the school gate was about to start writing again, the bell for the end of get out of class happened to ring again in the castle.

Recently, a new round of Quidditch is about to start again, but it has nothing to do with Harry.

After quitting the house team, he and Neville spent more time together than before. And Neville is also a good enough buddy, he spends more time with Harry exchanging magical experience with each other than with Hannah.

No, now that the second class period is over, the next two people who didn't have a scheduled class went upstairs together, and walked to the Room of Response together.

"Harry, how are you doing today?"

"Yeah, it's not bad—so I want to try again."

"Come on then! If you can make it bigger than it was last week, that's something to look forward to...but I'll say it's definitely bigger than mine!"

"Hey, don't worry! I will definitely let you know how good I am..."

On the stairs, three Slytherin students passed the two of them, and they turned their heads secretly, staring at the backs of Harry and Neville.

"What are you looking at!"

Harry keenly felt the needle-like eyes, and immediately turned around and gave them a few glances.

"Look what's wrong with you!"

One of the younger Slytherin students seemed a little unconvinced, and couldn't help but retorted, but was immediately pushed behind by another senior senior.

"Uh... no, it's nothing, we'll go down now."

"Humph!"

Harry curled his lips, and didn't bother to talk to the three little Slytherin snakes anymore, he greeted Neville and continued to go up the stairs.

"Baker, why don't you let me say a few more words - don't the two of them rely on their relationship with McClain! What's the big deal."

"Yeah!" Another little girl in his grade also said, "And Professor McLean is not the kind of person who helps anyone who has a good relationship. Last semester, the red-haired Weasley and Malfoy almost quarreled. , wasn’t it Professor McLean who persuaded him to leave!”

But who knew, the senior Slytherin immediately waved his hand and said:

"Who said that's what I'm here for? Well, you're too young to understand those nasty things. Look at that Potter and Longbottom, they've been together all day this term... tsk tsk tsk."

"What?" The little girl wondered at the time, "What's a 'dirty thing'? What happened to them?"

"Hey," the senior student couldn't help grinning when he heard it, "Don't you understand? It's good if you don't understand... Forget about today's matter! If you figure it out, I'm afraid you will feel nauseous at lunch later I can't eat anything!"

"Ahem."

Just when the little girl looked puzzled, a dry cough suddenly sounded from behind them.

"What are you doing stuck here? Go to class as soon as you have class, and study in the common room if you don't have class—or do you want to follow me around the Forbidden Forest?"

"Professor Snape?"

Hearing this, the three hurriedly turned their heads to take a look, and then went downstairs in a hurry.

Snape, who suddenly appeared here, glanced sideways at them a few times, then raised his head again, and looked in the direction where Harry and Neville left.

After a while, he didn't say anything, just clicked his tongue unhappily, then turned and left.

...

On the other hand, Harry and Neville didn't know that they were almost regarded as "good partners" with some illicit relationship.

Of course, even if they heard about it, it wouldn't be too painful - after all, in this regard, there is still Ron's spreading rumors behind his back to block them!

After Harry locked the door, Neville, who had already gone inside to light up the room, waved his wand and signaled to Harry:

"Hurry up! There is only one class time, and there is a history of magic class to be taught later!"

After speaking casually, Neville suddenly pointed his wand forward and shouted:

"Call God to protect you!"

Although he has already been able to cast the Patronus Charm with the silent spell technique, according to the theory of Maca data, only by clearly reading the spell can it be possible to unleash the most powerful spell. strength.

Accompanied by Neville's swinging staff and chanting a mantra, a large cloud of silvery white mist burst out immediately, condensing into a strong and shining lion in front of him.

Here, Harry first took a good look at Neville's patron saint of the lion, and then drew out his phoenix tail feather wand.

If it was placed in a certain period of time, when he saw Neville, the patron saint, he would immediately feel envious. But now, he can't anymore.

From the day when he asked Neville for advice sincerely, Harry already had a deeper understanding of the Patronus Charm.

Moreover, his understanding was not something that he comprehended due to chance and coincidence like Neville did, but something that he really worked out on his own.

Obviously, the reason why Neville can summon the current patron saint of lions must be because his intention to protect grandma has completely broken through the previous cowardly appearance. When his courage suddenly burst out, the courage to guard made his true heart instantly stand out.

However, the image of the patron saint is actually just a symbol, it does not represent the strength of the patron saint spell itself.

Harry's own Patronus is a stag, so if you want to grow the Patronus, the best way is not to try to change the image, but to continue to explore and explore in the meaning symbolized by "Stag".

"To cast the Patronus Charm, you need happy memories or belief in guardianship."

After saying this sentence silently again, Harry also stuck out his wand, and the confusion of the past was no longer in his eyes.

"Call God for protection."

At the moment when the silver light erupted, the figure of his long-gone parents flashed in his mind, and Dumbledore's kind smile flashed again, and of course a series of scenes from Ginny, Ron, Hermione, Neville, etc. companion.

But in the end, those flashing images were finally fixed on the back of Maca.

In the next second, the huge amount of silver light mist that diffused around him suddenly shrank, and a stag with huge antlers like a canopy on its head suddenly ran out of it, and jumped around him in a circle.

There is no doubt that this patron saint is still the image of a stag, but there are quite a few differences from the past in many details.

More importantly, its size was not lost to Neville's lion at all.

"Hey! Check it out! It's going to be bigger than yours this time!"
