Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

Chapter 281: magic circle

The four people Apparated to the ground and quickly picked a random direction and started walking straight.

"God, what kind of tea did he give me just now..."

"Gordigan tea, don't ask me what Gordigan is," said Hermione.

"...This Gordigan tea is the worst thing I've ever had in my life." Blake held back his disgusting expression for a while, but couldn't help complaining at this moment: "I still want to let us eat. , I'd rather eat Hermione's..."

"Why would you rather eat what I make!" said the little girl aggrieved.

"It's nothing, I just like to eat what you cook." Lockhart quickly comforted her, "Master Sirius is used to eating big meals."

"I didn't mean that, anyway Hermione's cooking is much better than Azkaban's prison meal-"

"You don't make it worse, Sirius." Harry couldn't take it any longer. "Hermione's cooking is delicious! Professor, what are we going to do next?"

"I can't count on anyone else. I have to find a way myself. First, I will set up a tent on the grass in front of me and wait for Arthur's news here." Lockhart said, "I will create a magic to destroy the Horcrux. ."

"What kind of magic can destroy a Horcrux." Hermione recounted Lockhart's original words like a repeater: "To destroy a Horcrux, two conditions must be met: First, there must be enough magic power to completely destroy it. The second is to have a speed of destruction faster than the speed of its own repair, which is indispensable."

"Yes, I want to create a formation-type magic that can accumulate a lot of magic power." Lockhart said: "There are already a lot of previous experience in this area that can be borrowed. It should not be difficult, but how to accumulate enough to destroy the Horcrux. It's a bit difficult to release the magic power in an instant."

"Ok."

——

Hermione was a hard worker, and when she got there, she couldn't stop pitching tents, setting up furniture, cleaning up and getting ready for lunch. Lockhart, on the other hand, was sitting comfortably at the door of the tent. Start connecting with other Order of the Phoenix and Aurors with Black.

Arthur tells him with a note that he has started collecting information on Manjik, much to Lockhart's satisfaction. While Scrimgeour and Martin were searching for the whereabouts of the Horcruxes. It's dangerous to visit wizards everywhere by the way. Because they are still wanted criminals in the wizarding world. If they are not careful, they may frighten the wizards to call the police, and then be chased by the hitters... Lockhart suggested that they wait for Lovegood's revealing materials to spread before contacting the wizards.

Then he could study a magic that could instantly destroy Horcruxes while waiting for the time to assassinate Manjik.

It is not very difficult to accumulate magic power. Any powerful spell requires a wizard to accumulate power. The more magic power accumulated, the greater the power of the spell, the better the core of the wand, and the stronger the wizard's ability to control magic power. The more powerful the charging magic is.

But events like Harry and Voldemort casting spells face-to-face with wands with the same core, resulting in the accumulation of a lot of energy in the phoenix feathers are accidental. And that amount is not enough to destroy the Horcrux at all. And the Elder Wand... I don't know what wand core to use. Lockhart didn't dare to take it apart and look at it, but he knew very well that this thing was just a magical improvement of the wizard's ability to explode in a short time, but it was absolutely impossible to hold one. A spell to destroy Horcruxes.

Then a real magic circle is needed. Hogwarts, the Ministry of Magic and even Gringotts have a large number of magic circles that can be referenced for research or experiments, but he can't go to these places now. He is very knowledgeable about magic, and it is not difficult to design a magic circle.

——

The group stayed here for a few days, peacefully... Lockhart designed a magic circle and used a lot of cherished magic props. Like dragon blood, unicorn horn powder, lots of magic crystals and magic parchment - none of them or not enough. To this end, he went to Diagon Alley in disguise several times, and almost used up the compound decoction. Then I found that the money I brought was not enough... Fortunately, Blake had a lot of valuables on him. If he took out one piece and sold it, it was enough to buy all the materials.

After dozens of repeated attempts and experiments, Lockhart had to determine a theory that has long been recognized as the truth: the larger the magic circle, the stronger the power, and the more materials used can certainly allow it to accumulate. The magic power increases, but the larger the magic circle, the less coordination between different parts. No matter how Lockhart makes changes, the magic power cannot be instantly invested in one point. Naturally, the Horcrux cannot be destroyed.

You can only choose a balance between the best coordination of the magic circle, that is, the highest instant damage and the greater accumulation of magic power, so that it is most likely to destroy the Horcrux.

——

"I have found this balance." Lockhart said, "This magic circle can store more than one hundred and fifty times the magic power of all the magic in my body." He pointed to the magic circle with a diameter of nearly ten meters. "It can convert all the magic power into damage to the Horcrux within ten seconds - about the equivalent of a hundred ordinary wizards attacking it with fierce fire."

"What is the concept of an ordinary wizard?" Black asked. "Don't use such ambiguous words, you just say that the power is greater than the last time the Forty Aurors used the Fiery Fire Charm?"

"No—" Lockhart said.

"Then there's no need to try," Hermione said. "It's nothing to bring the mysterious man here."

"No, I have to try." Of course Lockhart knew in his heart that the chance of success was not high. "Although the power is not so amazing, don't forget that the Horcrux is also injured."

"Scrimgeour said only one-third of the defenses on it were broken!" Hermione remembered everything she said to everyone: "And we spent half a minute that time, you magic circle. The power is not more than the last time when 40 people joined forces, but it can only work for ten seconds! I don't think it will be successful."

"I've learned the Fiery Fire Spell." Harry suddenly said, "Maybe we can call Scrimgeour and the others over and do it together while the magic circle is running. Wouldn't the success rate be high?"

"When the magic circle is running, the wizard's attack can only destroy the magic circle." Lockhart rejected this suggestion, "When the time comes, you will first apparate to another place to wait for me. I am here to watch the magic circle. Destroy it, and I'll grab the Horcrux and Apparate to join you."

"What!" Hermione's voice suddenly increased, and she screamed: "In other words, when the mysterious man comes to save his Horcrux, no one can even help you stop him! I don't agree. !"

"Can the three of you stop him for a few seconds?" Lockhart glared at her. "Even if you stop him, who will cover up the other three like crazy eyes?" It's a pity that Hermione never gives in on this kind of thing. He opened his eyes wide and stared back at him with brown eyes.

"Then give up the plan and find another way," said Harry.

"Yes, give up!" Hermione said quickly.

"No!" Lockhart refused, "Even if you can't destroy the Horcrux, you can further weaken the defenses above. Repeat it a few times, and it will definitely work!"

"No no no no!" Hermione cried hysterically. "You are not allowed to take risks!"

"No risk, listen to my analysis: the process only takes ten seconds, and the mysterious man didn't immediately apparate to the Horcrux when he sensed that the Horcrux was injured." Lockhart saw Hermione's attitude was so determined, so he could only try to convince her , "Didn't he just Apparate to the top of a mountain two miles away from us last time, and it took him more than ten seconds to catch up."

"You can't take one experience as a rule for this kind of thing!" Hermione was said to be a little moved. It only took ten seconds. She thought about it carefully... Maybe it's really not dangerous? "Maybe some protective spell to block him for a few seconds?"

"It's very difficult for such a simple magic circle to run in or around another magic circle." Lockhart shook his head, "It's settled, I am the strongest among us, and I have full confidence that I can retreat completely. Don't worry about it! Sirius, the two children are handed over to you."

"Gildrow..." Hermione began to use soft~lightnovelpub.net~ We haven't tried many methods yet, so don't worry. "

"Stop talking nonsense, talk more and let Sirius take you away." Lockhart said forcefully, blocking Hermione's words all at once.

"Are you sure it's safe?" Blake asked worriedly. "They're not children anymore. Maybe we can help you."

"I'm sure, don't fight. I've managed to get my Horcrux out of the Death Eater piles safely twice, and this time will be no exception." Lockhart said firmly, "Hermione, let's make dinner. , I will continue to pour magic power into the magic circle."

Hermione wanted to say something but three things, but it felt unlucky, so she could only give up and go to dinner obediently.
