Chapter 744 Textbook
When the data of the last little wizard was also recorded by Ms. Skillful Hands, Allen waved his hand casually, and dozens of books with blue backgrounds and bronze embossed covers, similar to illuminated manuscripts, floated in front of every wizard.
"Dumbledore also used this technique back then, but he used the silent spell technique, but he used a wand. Alan cast spells without a wand." Harry's eyes were fiery, but Neville beside him didn't respond to him.
Harry looked at Neville strangely, and found that Neville was staring dreamily at the books floating in front of him.
"Wizards use their wands to channel their magic, thus making the effects of spells more accurate and effective. Only powerful and highly skilled wizards can consistently master difficult wandless magic. Transfiguration and spells are often difficult without the use of wands." And if the operation is not accurate enough, it is easy to cause unexpected consequences, and I can only use this technique to cast a few small spells." Hermione still responded to Harry, "However, the wand is a magic tool invented in Europe. Therefore, before the wand was introduced to other places, the wizards there did not rely on this tool when using magic: Native Americans had formed their own magical system before the arrival of European colonists and did not need to use wands; It was not until the 20th century that wands were accepted, and to this day, wands are not necessary for them to perform magic, although African wizards cast spells without wands at the cost of longer casting gestures. There is nothing comparable to wandless spellcasting in the sense of the word, or the wandless skills that Dumbledore has demonstrated several times."
And at this sight, Harry's gaze was fixed on the book. The large bronze relief of the Omniscient mark was all over the book, and the rotating Omniscient Eye in the middle seemed to have infinite magic power, attracting the attention of the wizards. , they could barely take their eyes off the top. Involuntarily, Harry's fingers brushed slowly over the embossed lines.
"This book is worth a lot just by looking at it." Ernie McMillan stared at the sapphire embossed on the cover as the all-seeing eye, muttered in admiration, holding the book firmly as if possessed, "If If we are required to purchase it ourselves like other subjects, I think many students will have to give up this course due to economic reasons.”
"There is also a metal lock on the spine, where is this going to be hung?" Theodore Nott of Slytherin said, pointing to the lock on the spine.
"It may be hung on the backpack, hung on the belt, so that we can carry it with us, look at Ai... look at Professor Harris' belt." Draco Malfoy explained a few words, Theodore Nott Looking up at Allen's belt with the devil's skull, his tone was full of envy, "I also want to order a belt like Professor Harris', it looks really cool."
"Idiot, let's not talk about whether you have the ability to get it. The key point is that you don't have the robe of Professor Harris. The light belt doesn't match our school uniform." Blaise Zabini was stabbed by his mother who had been a widow six times Mrs. Beanie's education in aesthetics is not bad.
"Ms. Clever Hands just measured our waistlines. Obviously the professor will prepare them for us. This book lock is a raven." Malfoy said, his hand touched the book lock firmly fastened on the cover embossment, his fingers He pressed the lifelike carved raven lock on the book lock, whose wings were still vibrating slightly, and wanted to open the book.
There was a soft click, and the lock was opened, "Hey——" Malfoy sighed in surprise, and he was definitely not the only one who was surprised. The little wizards had never seen such a book before. "Book" and "The Invisible Book of Invisibility" are very strange books, but this book in front of them completely broke through their cognition - the words on the book are not in order, and they are written in a smooth dark blue like a starry sky. On the page, the silver magic writing moved slowly like stars.
These jumping characters attracted the wizards' attention, but they couldn't completely read the contents inside. Even if they widened their eyes, they couldn't see anything from the floating characters.
"It seems that you still like the little gift I gave you?" At this moment, Alan's voice sounded in their ears, "You can't see the contents of this textbook now, wait until we have the theory class When the time comes, I will let our course content appear on it, and then the page will automatically arrange the content we are going to teach. If you want to read and review after class, just hold the book and hold it in your mind In the memory, you can see the relevant text."
Even though they knew that there might be no content in the book at this time, wizards like Michael and Draco couldn't help but began to search for various keywords in their minds, trying to see some content.
Allen stepped down from the podium and continued: "You can also use this book as an endless notepad. You don't need ink, just write on it with a quill."
"Professor," Michael Kona raised his hand and asked directly, relying on his acquaintance with Allen, "What if I accidentally make a mistake?"
"Focus on your mind, think about erasing the wrong place, wipe it with your hands and it will disappear naturally." Allen nodded to Michael, and Michael couldn't wait to take out the quill after sitting down, and wrote in his book Glide carefully. There are not many like him.
It's just that the pale-faced Ginny held the quill pen but refused to start writing. She thought of the nightmarish experience she had when she wrote in Tom Riddle's diary and chatted with the mysterious man as a confidant. The fingers holding the quill were clenched tightly, and the knuckles of the fingers turned blue and white due to too much force.
Hermione looked at Ginny worriedly, held her arm, and wanted to give her good friend some warmth and encouragement: "Don't worry, Ginny, this is not..."
"It won't chat with you." Luna raised her big eyes and came closer.
"But these are not the most important. Its most important function is—" When the wizards were experimenting with the functions of the textbook in a novel way, Allen raised his voice to draw their attraction back to himself, "this book Allows you to store a spell. As long as you touch the book, you can quickly cast the spell with a thought or command. Of course, you have to re-store it after casting..."
But the class has already become agitated in an instant. What does this mean? Even if you are as slow as Neville, you can understand the meaning. If you store a piece of armor in it, at the critical moment of fighting with others, this may be a chance to save your life and win. .
"Because the trigger mechanism needs you to be able to touch it quickly, so in order to facilitate your carrying, a metal lock is designed on the spine of the book. Mrs. Norris II recorded good body data for you just now. Other small things will be discussed in the next class. The lesson will be given to you." A textbook floated up in the air, and Allen pointed to the spine of the book.
"This setting is indeed necessary, because there are always some idiots who will lose things." Draco caught a glimpse of Neville who was holding the textbook and couldn't put it down. It's such a waste to give it to the guy who keeps throwing things away.
Neville hugged the textbook in his arms, consciously checked with Draco's sarcasm, and quickly stated: "Professor Harris, I will definitely keep it safe and never let it get lost."
"Don't worry, this textbook is very private. Even if you accidentally lose the textbook, the content written on it will not be discovered by others." Allen turned the hanging book in one direction, "This raven The shape of the book lock, like the golden snitch, has the function of physical memory. Only the person who touches it first can open the book lock. Even if someone else gets your textbook, he cannot open it. Of course, if you lose it, You'll have to pay for the next one, which, to be forewarned, is not cheap."
The reason why Allen carefully designed the textbooks for the students is because the ancient magic he wants to teach is almost impossible to buy related books on the outside market, even if some of this knowledge is revealed in those bookstores, However, unlike other subjects, they are not systematically taught as textbooks, and their content is not suitable for young wizards who have not yet graduated to read.
So Allen could only summarize and print it himself. He did not choose to print textbooks in the traditional way. He wanted to take this opportunity to try to use the knowledge on the Nether scrolls to create these ancient magical wonders, which can be regarded as a kind of gift for himself. practise. For him, he collects the feelings and other data of the students during the use process, and then continuously improves his design concept. When the technology is mature, Allen can equip his own people and Aurors with more mature products.
And the several functions of the textbook this time have also been carefully considered by Allende: on the one hand, there is an endless notepad, and these little wizards will naturally take out this textbook to record notes when they are taking other courses. After all, with a portable notebook that can be used unlimitedly, who is willing to carry a pile of heavy ordinary notepads and parchment with him; Sometimes they will try to wear this book on their body at all times.
This is equivalent to that these students of his are promoting ancient magic classes to young wizards who have not joined anytime, anywhere. Therefore, in addition to the two functions of storing a spell and recording information that are really useful in the true sense, Allen did not hesitate to spend a lot of extra gold Galleons to use them on the decoration of this book, those exquisite reliefs And the gemstones on it are actually completely unnecessary decorative items, but they are used as a propaganda tool to get these personal imprints representing Harris.
The introduction of the textbook was almost finished. The professor of ancient magic class tied the book floating in front of him on his belt, and let the book hang on his left waist. This action was also as Allen expected, and it attracted the attention of the little wizards who admired him, making them quite envious. I believe this style will make them imitate in the future.
Then, Allen clapped his hands: "Now, please put away your textbooks. We don't need to study theory today. Come out with me, and I will take you to the practice site to officially start the first class."
