Take things as they come at Hogwarts

In the third week of June, after bidding farewell to his four reluctant friends, Locke watched the red steam locomotive spew plumes of smoke away.

The whole campus fell silent, and the silence accumulated over the years engulfed the castle again.

Only at this moment does it resemble a thousand-year-old fortress.

After the start of the summer vacation, Locke's life became extremely regular, and every day there were basically four locations: dormitory, auditorium, library, and room for requirement, and even the time and route were accurately grasped, and every day was a reproduction of the previous day.

Summer vacation is a rare relaxation time not only for young wizards, but also for professors.

However, Professors McGonagall and Sprout stay at Hogwarts all year round, even during the summer holidays.

One of them is the vice principal, and her work is her life, and she has little time to relax.

The other can't put down the cute herbs in the greenhouse, and it's hard to leave.

So the two quickly noticed Locke's condition and couldn't help but worry.

Although Locke, as a student, was so diligent and studious was very commendable.

But this kind of carefully planned learning like a closed gear makes them can't help but worry about Locke's mental condition.

But after they talked to Locke, Locke changed his plan and added a daily event of getting up in the morning to run and exercising in the morning and flying a broomstick for a while in the evening.

Since Harry had nowhere to fly even if he had brought a broomstick home, the place where he lived was surrounded by Muggles.

So Harry left the Halo 2000 with Locke.

Let Locke use it to relax and help him maintain the Halo 2000 by the way.

In this way, after a whole month, Locke finally went through all of Ron's textbooks roughly, and had a clearer idea of his current learning progress and future study plan.

First of all, it is impossible to exhaust all the courses that will work for him.

Once you join a professor's club, or enter an advanced class in 6th grade, the difficulty of learning skyrockets!

The education method in the wizarding world is not scientific and perfect, except for the teaching materials and content suitable for beginners, and then the specialized and advanced content, there is no intermediate transition.

So if Locke wants to take all the lessons that work for him, there's only one way: start in the third year and increase his time by a third with the help of a time turner!

But it's too dangerous to do so.

A time converter is fine if you use it honestly and according to the instructions, but if you use it indiscriminately, it can lead to unforeseen consequences.

Locke worries that he is in a state of being sick from time to time, and once he gets the time turner, he may play the whole world badly.

He only wants to punish evil and promote good, but he doesn't want to destroy the world.

But if he didn't rely on a time turner, he would have to specialize in a certain subject.

At the moment, the courses that are very advantageous for Locke to study are Potions, Transfiguration, Charms, and Conservation of Magical Animals.

These subjects are either taught by professors, or they are gifted and blessed with golden crows, and they can get twice the result with half the effort.

But he himself still wants to study alchemy, so he needs to study the ancient magic script.

Locke wrote down the names of these subjects one by one in his notebook, and his fingers twitched between them, and it was difficult to choose for a while.

However, after closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Locke kept his finger on the word "Charms".

Perhaps, this is the most difficult path for Locke. Because of his talent for spells, he was not as good as Hermione and Harry.

But Locke, for his own purposes, must stick to this path!

Perhaps the transformation of the fire element is Locke's strongest means in the future.

But Professor McGonagall could not teach him much, unless Dumbledore and Voldemort taught him themselves.

And using magical beasts, he can control powerful power in a short period of time!

But Fantastic Beasts have their own thoughts and emotions, and Locke doesn't want to drive them like tools.

And being friends for life...... Who has ever seen a dying person go to get a pet?

"Spell, spell......" Locke muttered the word as he began to act.

He began to refer to extracurricular readings, and taught himself Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts classes in his senior grades.

And the first high-level spell he wanted to master was the Iron Armor Charm - "Armor Protection"!

This spell object, law double defense, can also reflect the spell, is also very flexible and hidden, is a rare excellent modern spell! (read the violent novel, go to the Feilu novel network!)

But Locke didn't learn well.

I practiced it for a week, and I only used it occasionally.

And the transparent barrier used is almost shattered at the slightest touch!

This couldn't help but make him feel very frustrated: am I really so wasted, without Hermione to fly with me, I would have sunk so completely?!

Locke couldn't help but wonder if he had made some stupid decision.

On this day, he practiced the Iron Armor Charm more than a dozen times in an empty classroom, but it still didn't come to fruition.

"At your age, it's too early to practice this spell. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, startling Locke.

Because, although there are still many people in the school during the summer vacation, such as Filch, the librarian, Mrs. Pince, Hagrid, Dumbledore, the professor of otaku divination, Trelawney, the ghost professor Binns, etc.

But Locke was sure that none of these people had the same voice as before.

"Could it be that your own cheating grandfather, no, old ...... Young lady is here?" Locke was pleasantly surprised.

But in retrospect, Locke realizes that it was just a beautiful female ghost with black hair talking to him.

"Lady Gray?" Locke often saw the female apparition.

First of all, she is beautiful, and she is the representative ghost of Ravenclaw House.

Secondly, on the first day of school, Locke upset the ghost lady. If he hadn't been cute, I'm afraid he would have died directly.

"Don't call me Ms. Gray...... You can call me Elena. "

"Elena, that's a lot better. Locke commented.

"Thank you. Elena nodded reservedly, but her face remained expressionless.

Locke didn't understand her attitude a little, but still asked:

"You say it's too early for me to practice this spell at my age, what's the reason for that?"

"I noticed that you read those senior textbooks in the library, but there are some things that will never be mentioned in the textbooks. Helena didn't answer directly, but said to herself.

"Well, that's true. So, I'm missing an important piece of knowledge?"

"That's right. Do you know the stability of mana output?"

"Well, the more consistent the mana output, the easier it is for the spell to be cast successfully. Locke knew this, because Hermione's talent for spells was the best because she had the most consistent spell output.

Locke, on the other hand, is the worst of the five, and Harry is the second-worst.

However, poor consistency of mana output does not mean that spell talent is poor. This is because different spells have different requirements for the stability of mana output.

"Yes. But the stability of mana is subject to change. The reason why young wizards are not allowed to cast spells at will and learn spells on their own is because their magic output is very stable. However, once they reach adulthood, the stability of any young wizard's mana output will directly increase, and then remain the same. "

"That's right. Locke thought for a moment.

If the "little wizard" is evolving from a Muggle to a wizard at this stage and is undergoing some kind of transformation, then when he becomes an adult, does it mean that the transformation is complete?

So, the mana output will be stable and the plasticity will be drastically reduced?

"You have to know that some spells, such as the Iron Armor Spell, the Phantom Body Spell, and the Phantom Transformation Spell, actually have hidden requirements, in addition to magic power, there is also the stability of magic output. Because of this, it is several times more difficult for a young wizard to master these spells than for an adult wizard. I advise you to learn some spells that are more suitable for young wizards. Otherwise, it's just a waste of time. "。
