Chapter 84 Andy: I Can Also Explode
Time flies, and it is already March.
Everything is revived, and spring is in full bloom.
The weather is getting warmer, and many little wizards can't wait to take off their sweaters. As a result, the temperature suddenly dropped, and many people in the castle caught a cold, and the school infirmary suddenly became the busiest place in Hogwarts.
But catching a cold also has its benefits.
As long as you catch a cold, you can skip classes openly.
Andy has seen some little wizards get close to those patients - after all, it's the flu, and you'll be out of date if you don't catch a cold.
In addition to the flu, there is another thing that has given Andy a headache recently.
Hermione seems to have severe pre-exam anxiety.
There are more than three months before the final exam, and Hermione has launched a massive review plan.
In addition to memorizing all the textbooks, she also has to read a lot of extracurricular books every day, repeatedly practice the spells taught in school, and the review notes alone are as many as six notebooks.
Not only that, she also tried to pull Andy to review together.
But Andy refused.
Reviewing is necessary, but it is not for the sake of exams.
Perhaps it is because of the time travel, or perhaps it is because of living in a foreign country, Andy does not have much sense of collective honor here.
Whether it is the test scores or the college cup, Andy does not care much.
Compared with these, Andy values magic itself more.
On the sixth floor of the castle, in an abandoned classroom.
Andy took back his wand and opened the system interface.
After nearly a year of hard work, his talents in [Charms] and [Transfiguration] have reached [5] points.
Now, even if it is not the learning ability, comprehension ability and self-control ability that are unique to adults, Andy's talent is one of the best in Hogwarts.
This has led to Andy's extremely fast learning progress.
Now Andy has not only self-studied the second-year courses, but also read a lot of extracurricular books in the library and mastered a lot of practical small magic.
His strength has been greatly improved.
These days, Andy has focused his main energy on learning brain occlumency.
For 90% of wizards in the magic world, Occlumency is an unpopular and impractical magic.
For the remaining 10%, Occlumency is one of the magics they must learn.
Occlumency is a magical art that resists external mental infiltration. It can seal the brain to resist the invasion and influence of magic.
It is also the nemesis of Legilimency.
In short, as long as you have a heart that wants to make trouble in the magic world, you must master Occlumency.
Andy's learning went smoothly, but he was not proficient.
Advanced Occlumency requires someone to cooperate with Legilimency to practice. Andy can't let others explore his memory, so there is no way to practice.
However, this level is enough to deal with Legilimency with eye contact.
[Potential Points: 4]
The last time I added points was in early January. Now two months have passed, and Andy has finally accumulated 4 potential points.
Andy turned his eyes to the data on the right side of the system.
[Magic: 2]
[Soul: 4]
[Mind: 3]
[Thinking: 3]
[Will: 2]
This data is actually not bad.
Magic will naturally increase with age, and soul, mind, and thinking are all within the range of normal people.
Only will - 2 points is like an insult.
In fact, Andy also realized that his will is a bit poor.
The will here does not only refer to self-control, but also to the courage to take risks and the willpower to resist temptation.
Andy was just an ordinary person in his previous life, so his will was naturally a bit weak.
But today's protagonist is not the [Will] attribute.
Andy focused on the [Mind] attribute, took a deep breath, and increased the [Mind] attribute from [3] to [4].
When the system panel changed, Andy felt a warm current seemed to surge from the bottom of his heart and quickly flowed to his limbs.
The whole body was warm, as if full of strength.
The improvement of the [Mind] attribute is completely different from the talent improvement on the left side of the system.
Andy still remembers the feeling of improving his [Spells] talent. It was a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
But improving [Mind] is different.
It was a feeling of ‘no change, but somehow I feel very strong’.
Andy remembered that he had read some news in his previous life.
For example: In order to save the child trapped under the car, the mother suddenly burst out with great strength and lifted the car with her bare hands.
From a scientific point of view, this is called adrenaline surge.
But from a magic point of view, this is the power of the mind.
The magic in this world is originally idealistic.
After adding points this time, Andy couldn’t say where he became stronger, but he just felt that he was much stronger.
If we use the words of the previous life, Andy’s current state is probably that his spirit is fuller, and the whole person has changed from the inside out.
“…”
Andy suddenly thought that Harry Potter might be a typical example of a strong mind.
Andy and Harry have been classmates for about a year, and he thinks he knows Harry’s magic talent quite well.
Among his classmates, Harry's talent can be ranked in the top five, much better than Malfoy and others.
But if compared with the seniors, Harry's talent is not so outstanding.
This obviously does not match his identity as the protagonist.
Through this period of contact, Andy found that Harry is a very emotional person.
From the perspective of dealing with people, emotionality is a big disadvantage.
But from the perspective of magic, emotionality is an extremely rare advantage.
Harry is brave, has a sense of justice, and is very sincere to people and emotions.
And it is precisely this sincere emotion that gives Harry extremely strong inner strength and rich inner emotions.
This emotion can easily make Harry produce some extreme emotions, thereby greatly increasing the power of the spell.
Andy thought: "Harry Potter is a children's book that promotes love and friendship. From this aspect, Harry's characteristics do meet the requirements of the protagonist."
Andy probably understands the role of the [Mind] attribute.
The improvement of the [Mind] attribute greatly increases Andy's inner strength and emotional power. This power is invisible and intangible, but it really exists.
In other words, when Andy uses this spell with the corresponding emotion, the power of the spell can be increased to a certain extent.
For example:
Killing spell for killing intent.
Crushing spell for destructive desire.
Patronus spell for happy emotion.
Mental power corresponds to emotional power, and the improvement of the mind is equal to the sublimation of emotion.
This amplification makes Andy very satisfied.
Although the power of emotion is needed when casting the spell, this amplification is enough to become Andy's killer at this stage.
