Chapter 356 Pragmatists' Magic Theory Study

The magic that Dumbledore called "difficult" is really unusual. After Lockhart understood the principle of Soul Torrent, Rao was mentally prepared enough, but he still made a difficult one.

The reason why Dumbledore said that it requires three-purpose skills is because "soul torrent" needs to use a person's magic, emotions and soul power at the same time, and each part needs to control the frequency changes and the power of loss, It will be very troublesome to not be able to separate the mind.

After all, he learned the dual use of mind and spell sequencing by tricks. When he encountered this kind of magic that requires real materials to use, Lockhart was a little dumbfounded.

Lockhart tried about a dozen times, but still could not get the point, he could only push back and try again.

He's not really a genius after all.

Fortunately, Dumbledore didn't expect him to learn it right away. After he taught Lockhart the spell and some spellcasting essentials, Dumbledore let him leave Hogwarts and figured it out for himself. Anyway, he should explain it to him. Everything has been explained, and it depends on Lockhart himself.

As Lockhart walked and pondered about the new magic, he unknowingly returned to Hogsmeade.

At this time, the people in the village were busy removing the red lanterns during the lantern festival. When Lockhart saw it, he took the initiative to help, and wanted to use magic to remove the red lanterns floating in the air one by one.

These red lanterns have probably been left in the grocery room for too long, and they are very reluctant to go back, so they are very naughty one by one, floating in the air, refusing to come down, and the villagers are worried that they will be damaged by brute force. lantern, so I was devastated.

Just as Lockhart and the biggest red lantern on top of Jack Pea were arguing, the two guests also came to the rooftop in the clouds, seemingly planning to have a drink. Seeing this situation, the guest took out a wooden sword from behind and pointed at the lantern.

After the red lantern was pointed by the wooden sword, the candle light inside suddenly went out, and the restless body also slowly fell down with the string.

"Ah, thank you." Lockhart quickly thanked the two guests, "I thought this afternoon would be spent here."

Only then did he notice that the two guests were both yellow-skinned and black-haired, and one of them was a Japanese guest he had met, Mr. Kinomoto, who should be a representative sent by the International Wizarding Association.

"You're welcome, this is our stuff." One of them said in articulate English.

Since they did themselves a favor, Lockhart also invited the guests to drink a glass of wine and complimented the other party's superb spells.

In line with the humility of the Orientals, the other party said that this is just a specialization of art.

"Western magic emphasizes spirit and spirit, but has no rhythm. It must be said that it is a pity." The guest explained what he had just done.

"'What is anger?" Lockhart was curious.

Hearing his question, the guest was at a loss for words. It is not that he does not understand the concept of qi, but it is difficult to express it in English.

Seeing this, Mr. Kinomoto next to him took advantage of the situation. After all, it has been a long time since Japan left Asia and joined Europe, and the Japanese have more say in the exchange of ideas between the East and the West.

Chen Fang's so-called essence, qi, and spirit can roughly correspond to the magic, will and soul in European and American magic. he explained to Lockhart in general terms, "West majored in

Magic, sees will as the trigger for magic. But in the East, Qi cultivators majored in "God", which is the mood, emotion and will of people."

Hearing this, Lockhart's heart moved.

"So, are there any magicians in the east who are cultivators of "Essence, Qi, and Spirit"... I mean monks? ' he asked humbly.

The two Asian guests were all laughing.

After laughing, the guests helped Lockhart to reveal the answer: "There is indeed a spell that requires "essence, energy, and spirit" to be used at the same time. Huo', the monks who can become that are the treasures of various sects."

"So... they are all masters of three-purpose mind, who control essence, qi, and spirit separately to practice that magic?" Lockhart was a little surprised.

"Heart is divided into three functions? No, no, no..." The visitor immediately denied, "Heart without a crossbow is the upper class. The essence, energy and spirit are all one, so why is the heart divided into three uses."

Lockhart graciously poured a glass of high-level whiskey for the other party: "Please elaborate, I'm curious."

People are all vain, and it is rare to see barbarians humbly asking for advice, let alone asking only basic ideological questions. In addition, a few people have already poured a lot of yellow soup, and it is normal for people not to put the door on their mouths.

"It's so easy! The heart is the essence, the body is the use, focus on returning to the origin, guard the spirit, and follow the true qi..."

After returning from the drink, Lockhart found that he had a deeper understanding of that "soul torrent".

If the mind is divided into three uses is a modular training method, then the Orientals seem to be more inclined to start from the whole, but in the end they still reach the same goal.

Lockhart doesn't think about which is superior at all. As a good politician, pragmatism is their true creed.

Just as economic policy is often born out of the theories of economists, but never does what the economist wants, a statesman must choose the parts of the theory that work for him according to the actual situation, and never let himself be so mad A certain theory or a certain doctrine cannot extricate itself.

The behavior of politicians is very annoyed to scholars, but what annoys scholars even more is that the result of what they do is often effective, and scholars can only wait for problems in policy implementation before jumping out and shouting, saying What will Zhuangkouguo do according to what I said at the beginning." However, if you do it completely according to the theory, the policy will only collapse faster.

Similarly, Lockhart, who has been immersed in this way for a long time, does not care whether this magic theory is authentic or not. His creed has always been useful and used.

The Easterners provided him with a holistic training method that does not require the use of three minds, but Lockhart is not a wizard trained by the Eastern magic system, so he can only use this theory for reference, and add his own understanding and understanding. Use after modification.

Among the magic, emotion and soul, the only thing that needs him to be temporarily mobilized is emotion, so Lockhart decided to continue to use tricks, order the magic in advance, and give it to his second heart to release, and then according to Eastern theory, Emotions are the main body to mobilize the soul, and finally complete this magic.

After finishing the preparations, Lockhart didn't even bother to eat dinner, and took advantage of the night to come to the training ground outside, and released his improved soul torrent to the sky.

The result was not the same as Dumbledore's demonstration. Lockhart's soul torrent had a little more firework, less softness, and the magic power poured out a lot faster, but the duration also dropped a lot. cut.

Also, the magic power consumption of this thing is really terrible. Lockhart thought, lying on the ground.

P.So "Offer the savior to the infinite world! 》

Chapter 357 After the New Year, don't be idle

I only had a discussion with Dumbledore in the morning, and it didn't take long for another round to come. Even if Lockhart claimed to be well trained, he still had to take two days off after coming here, making others think This guy hurt his waist by having too much fun during the festival.

During this period, Dumbledore came over to confirm, and after knowing that Lockhart had practiced that magic, he ignored him. Although Lockhart can spend two or three days practicing a high-level magic, it is very powerful, but it is still a little short of being amazing, so Dumbledore's attention quickly shifted to more important things.

Like, where the **** did dear little Tom go.

Because of Voldemort's threat, Dumbledore decided to hand over the school to Professor McGonagall after the new year, and he went out to find Voldemort's Horcruxes, trying to destroy a few more before he returned.

And when Dumbledore was not in the castle, Lockhart also needed to be more careful, so as not to be taken advantage of by Voldemort.

But the problem is not a big deal now - after all, most Death Eaters are still in Azkaban, and Hogwarts has Professor Flitwick and Moody watching, Lockhart can take advantage of this last window time to complete your own layout.

Although reluctant, Sirius still came to Lockhart as agreed after the Christmas and New Year holidays.

Lockhart took him to MI5 without a word, and asked him to work here from now on, clock in on time every day, and obey all attendance orders after training.

"Don't give him any clerical work, this idiot can't even compare to a junior high school student in arithmetic, please assign him the most dangerous errands." These are Lockhart's original words.

Mrs. Rimington was helpless: "What you said is also a misunderstanding of us by outsiders. In fact, we really don't have any dangerous tasks under normal circumstances."

"No?"

"Yes, no. We spend most of our time collecting intelligence through some formal channels, or using formal means to exclude foreign spies, and occasionally approaching informants—under, the thrilling shootout as in the movie is almost non-existent.

If Mr. Black is not very comfortable with clerical work, he can go on duty o"

As for the issue of travel, let him do whatever he can, and in short, he cannot be allowed to waste food. "

Lockhart's performance was unusually high, and if you just listened to the tone, you might think he was offering himself up, but he wasn't.

Sirius said in his heart that although he was not afraid of any dangerous tasks, Lockhart always felt like he was being sold by doing this.

But Lockhart, as if he had no self-consciousness, patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him to work hard.

Damn, how much did he lose his mind in the first place to agree to this guy's job security? Sirius couldn't help but wonder.

But there is no way, since it is promised, it must be done. Besides, even if he didn't do this, Sirius couldn't figure out what to do for a while.

Of course, neither of them knew how many ways Mrs. Rimington would experiment with Sirius, but Lockhart had already agreed with Sirius that no matter what Muggles did to him, he had to at least Worked for half a year and learned their working methods from Muggles.

Otherwise, they will suffer the crime and the information will be leaked, but they have not learned anything from there.

Then to deal with Voldemort, that would be a miserable loss.

After sending Sirius to work, Lockhart returned to Malfoy Manor, where he met with two members of the Golden Hand.

There, the two "nobles" Malfoy and Farley were already waiting there, and judging from the way they were dressed up, they spent at least three hours in their attire.

Seeing Lockhart coming, the two greeted him together.

"Ready? Two?" Lockhart asked.

"Of course." Lucius Malfoy replied first, "We've been waiting for a long time - almost three hundred years."

Lockhart knew what Lucius meant. He was saying that the Malfoy family had not been to the royal family for nearly three hundred years.

"Then let's get it out!"

Lockhart took a small "model" of a luxury car out of his pocket and dropped it on the ground.

Seeing this, Malfoy couldn't help but ask.

"Driving? Aren't we going to Buckingham Palace?"

Lockhart chuckled and didn't answer.

Buckingham Palace is a place where a little aristocrat like you can go if you want: Her Majesty the Queen comes to Balmoral Villa in winter to see that her horse is not frozen, and it is good to take time to meet you by the way. , do you still want to go to Buckingham Palace?

And it's still for the Prime Minister's face. If it wasn't for the Prime Minister, he might just arrange a noble drink and send you away. How could you meet alone like this.

Of course, he couldn't say it directly, after all, he had to save some face.

"It's a royal tradition to meet the nobles at the country house on New Year's Day." He

That's the only way to explain it to Malfoy.

Malfoy said he could accept that statement.

7. I like tradition, just so, I also prepared a traditional gift JJ

He deliberately emphasized "traditional" to show that the Malfoy family's noble lineage had a history.

"Crabbe, Goyle!" he shouted to the interior. "Load our presents into the car!"

After hearing his shouts, two burly men came out of the Malfoy's villa: each carrying a huge box about two people's height on their shoulders, and judging from their footsteps, the weight of the box did not seem to be large. light.

If Lockhart was not mistaken, they were the fathers of Draco Malfoy's two sidekicks at school.

"My God." Lockhart frowned: "Why don't you use a floating spell?" Lucius shrugged: "The things I want to send are the goods that our family has saved for three hundred years, and they are very precious. Casting level, what should I do if I fall to the ground with a Levitation Charm? Besides, I have already used Featherfall Charm to reduce their weight."

He said it loudly, and didn't seem at all afraid that Crabbe and Goyle would hear him.

Under Lockhart's gaze, the two golden-haired men did not show any dissatisfaction, as if Lucius was not talking about them at all.

Even though he knew that the people in front of him were Death Eaters, Lockhart couldn't help feeling worthless for these two big idiots.

This is the tragedy of vassal families who rely on pure blood - because they need the support of the main family financially to survive, they must sell their freedom and loyalty to some extent.

The position of these two people should have been closer to that of the populist Lions, but Chennai.

Why can't they let go of the "pure blood" stinky air, and refuse to go out to do that kind of "low" work, so they can only do work that is actually more lowly and has no self-respect.

As long as there are people like this, the absence of Dobby will not affect Malfoy much, and he still has labor to exploit.

It's just that these two guys are really as honest as they seem on the surface?

Lockhart couldn't help but think of the "House of Requirement" in "Deathly Hallows", when little Crabbe shouted to Draco "I'm not going to listen to your orders anymore, Draco, you and your dad are **** up. ."

Looking at Lucius still indifferent, Lockhart felt that he didn't need to remind him at all.

Chapter three hundred and fifty-eight titles

When the three came to the Queen's country house, it happened that Her Majesty the Queen had an occasional cold.

According to the housekeeper, they usually come to Scotland in summer to escape the heat and watch horse races, but this year, for the two nobles of Malfoy and Farley, the Queen resolutely decided to come in the snow in winter, and she got cold when she got off the car.

When he said these words, the eyes he cast towards the three were full of curiosity. Although he had seen Lockhart before and had personally experienced the effect of hair growth, he had never imagined what kind of wizard it would be.

If it wasn't for the Prime Minister who said this, he would probably pick up the broom and drive him away without waiting for His Majesty to speak.

Fortunately, Major still had the face, and had all kinds of evidence to prove that what she said was true. Finally, the queen decided to meet the two wizards with suspicion, and strictly limited the right to know about this matter to herself and the old man. On the two housekeepers.

son

And the old butler was not a casual eater. After learning the names of the two wizards, Malfoy and Farley, he rummaged through the ashes of old papers in the Royal Archives for a long time, and finally succeeded in a large pile of coats of arms and genealogy charts. found the names of the two families.

"One is in the 0th century, and the other is a nobleman who was canonized in the 14th century." The butler reported to the Queen.

Because of the changes in the royal family, theoretically, the nobles who were originally canonized are no longer nobles, and the royal family does not need to pay attention to them.

But Her Majesty has other ideas about it.

She decided to recognize the noble status of the two families, and took advantage of the New Year to go to Scotland to meet them in person, to show the royal family's affinity in addition to honor.

She can be friendly, but the housekeeper can't, because she must be "graceful"

So he vaccinated Malfoy early, and by the way warned them not to mess around. After all, how to prevent the threat from wizards is still an unknown topic for the Royal Police.

Although Lockhart felt that the housekeeper's words were not true, he would not say it. And judging from the expressions of gratitude and guilt intertwined by Malfoy and Farley, there is no need for this.

Malfoy immediately stated that he would personally treat His Majesty.
