Sleep at Hogwarts is much better than when you're wandering outside. The next day, Hoffa wakes up with nothing sour. It's like being beaten on the bed with a stick. But the reason is not so. It's just lactate secretion after muscle fatigue.

The first day's schedule is at the head of the bed.

After looking at it, Hoffa was relieved. Today's lesson is magic and astronomy. Tomorrow's lesson is defense against the dark arts and ancient magic. The first deformation lesson will be the day after tomorrow. If he can, he hopes there won't be a deformation class this year.

...

...

at breakfast, the sharp owl flies into the school from the skylight.

They dropped the letters on the students' desks. A chestnut owl circled and threw a newspaper in front of Miranda. Then he ordered a piece of toast and flew away.

As soon as Milanda opened the newspaper, it was a cry of surprise.

The other students who received the newspaper were also noisy.

Looking around, Hoffa was not surprised to see the headlines.

-----Germany Muggles attack Poland, Britain and France warn severely.

The prophet daily rarely reports Muggle news, but this time, the newspaper put it in the front page, which shows the seriousness of the matter.

Agraia rubbed her head over and snatched the newspaper. She read it word by word and asked with a pale face, "can you fight?"

"I hope not," Miranda murmured. "English Muggles are not...

" impossible. "

Hoffa interrupted her with a sigh. "Tomorrow there will be a declaration of war between Britain and France."

"How do you know?"

The two friends looked over and asked in surprise.

Hoffa did not speak, but absently spread jam on the bread. When the war really comes, no one can guess that it will develop into the most terrible killing feast in history. At the moment, he is really not in the mood to talk more.

After breakfast, the three arrived at the magic class classroom on the fifth floor, which used to be adebe goshak's classroom, but now it belongs to Dumbledore.

However, the charm classroom belongs to the unique decoration of ADBE goshak, which has several large, accurate operation of the clock.

The only extra item is a set of 1.8-meter-high blue armor next to the teaching desk. It has a shiny metallic luster and is standing quietly in the same place.

Dumbledore came earlier than everyone else, and he was leaning against the platform, reading a Daily Prophet in his hand.

The Gryffindor students in the classroom also came surprisingly early, and they occupied a favorable position.

This kind of invisible demonstration made Ravenclaw quite dissatisfied. As soon as agraia entered the door, he glared angrily.

"I'll see how long these fools can last!" She said.

Hoffa didn't answer. After the three of them sat in the corner, he whispered to Miranda, "this is the first spell lesson you've ever had, isn't it?"

Miranda suddenly realized: "it seems to be the same. If you don't say it, I haven't found it."

Soon, the seats were full one after another. Dumbledore put down the newspaper, waved his wand and closed the door.

He looked at the crowd solemnly on the platform. His expression was contrary to the usual mild, but there was a stern shadow of Professor goshak.

"I don't want to play it off. This year, the outside form is no better than in previous years, and the conflicts between witches are more direct and violent than Israel. This year, I will reduce the number of life building incantations and teach you more incantations for self preservation and defense. "

The class is silent. Everyone has seen the news in the prophet daily these days. No one wants to drop the chain at this time. After all, it's really about life.

Dumbledore: who can tell me, how many kinds of defense mantra

Agraia said in Hoffa's ear, "176 species."

Hoffa's face turned black.

Several Gryffindor students put up their hands as if they were treasures.

Dumbledore nodded to one of them.

The Gryffindor said, "two, Professor, shield and armor."

"Correct answer, Gryffindor plus five points."

"Basically, although there are countless defensive spells of witches, they are derived from these two kinds of spells. One is for magic damage, and the other is for physical damage. "

Dumbledore: but before class, I'd like to introduce my temporary assistant, sir Carmel

Dumbledore put out his finger. Immediately, the standing armor beside him came to life. It clattered forward two steps, bent down and bowed to the crowd.

Hoffa was not too surprised that it was a living armor. In Hogwarts, everything was normal.

"Curse of armor, sir." Dumbledore orders.The armor nodded, drew a magic wand from his waist like a sword, and put it up in front of him. It was funny. Gryffindor snickered.

The next second, however, Dumbledore threw his wand.

"The flames are burning."

A yellow and blue flame spewed from Dumbledore's wand. The temperature of the whole classroom has been raised nearly 20 degrees, just like the steamer. Everyone pursed their mouths in horror.

With a wave of his wand, a transparent shield appeared in front of him.

In the twinkling of an eye, the shield was like an eggshell, fragmented.

Dumbledore puts down his wand and removes the fire.

However, the blue armor was burned into molten iron by the hot fire and fell to the ground with a clatter.

There was no sound in the classroom.

Dumbledore waved his wand again, and the molten iron on the ground bonded together again. The blue armored man was back to normal. Stand on the ground like nobody else.

Ravenclaw's students looked at each other, the contempt on their faces converged a lot. Obviously, Dumbledore is very proficient in incantation, more than enough as their teacher.

But Dumbledore didn't care about the change of others' emotions. He continued to talk about it with great eloquence:

"most students begin to learn the iron mantra first, but considering the special situation this year, Muggles have become quite irritable in the outside world. So in this class, I'm going to teach you another kind of mantra. It's a very practical and profound curse, the shield curse. "

Hoffa's head immediately turned to Miranda.

Miranda used the spell last night to keep him out of the wind.

Miranda shrugged and said nothing.

Agraia whispered, "I will, I will..."

"shield curse..."

Dumbledore looked at the three men, raised the volume slightly and interrupted their whispering.

"The shield curse was first used by King sista II of Prussia. In a war between Prussia and Gaul, sista II personally took command in order to boost his morale. The wizard in Gaolu took advantage of the king's unprepared and applied the poisonous curse of the time, ecstasy curse, behind him. Just as the curse was just used, sista II looked back and saw the curse flying towards him. In a hurry, he used the first shield curse, which not only blocked the curse, but also blocked the flying arrow in the sky. "

"Mantra - [Talike skita]"

"pronounce, Ta, read a light tone. If you have this tone, you can have the same light tone of" Li "and the same strength. The heaviest one of the six tones of" Ke "stops about 0.5 seconds in the middle.

When "Si" is pronounced as a light tone, it should give people a feeling of "if there is nothing". The stress of "Ji" is next to "Ke". The last "Ta" can be pronounced whatever you like. Be careful not to pronounce it as "Te".

It doesn't take a wand to release a spell, but it takes a hand, a brain, and a heart that has the courage to protect others. "

With that, Dumbledore turned to the armor and nodded.

The man in blue armor standing opposite him suddenly bent down. The gap between his face and armor opened and a red flame erupted from it. Flaming, no less than Dumbledore's incantation.

Dumbledore reached out with one hand: "Tarico skita."

Boom!!

In front of Dumbledore's hand, an invisible smooth cross shield appeared in the air. Although the cross was narrow, it effectively resisted all the flames.

The shield was transparent, with a blue halo around it. In the middle of his cross shield, Hoffa saw the pattern of a fiery red phoenix.

After touching the shield, the flame was scattered on both sides, illuminating everyone's faces. Some Gryffindor's hair curled in front of him, and there was a strange smell in the class.

Without waiting for him to look more, the flame disappeared and the shield disappeared.

"See?" Dumbledore put down his hand and asked faintly.

"I see it."

The students at the bottom answered together.

Dumbledore nodded to the armor man: "thank you, sir Carles."

The armor bent down and said the only thing: "I'm glad to help you."

With that, he went to one side with crunchy steps and recovered to a state of death.

Dumbledore: "the shield curse has different power when the magic power is different. When it is cast by different people, it will have different power. After the shield curse is successfully released, it will form a smooth shield in front of the body. There is a symbolic pattern in the middle of the shield, such as reindeer, boa constrictor, lion, and other items, which vary from person to person. Next time, I'd like to see you practice each other. "

As soon as his voice fell, the students in the class immediately rubbed their hands and were eager to have a try.

However, Dumbledore seemed to think of something again. He raised his hand:

"Oh, yes. Another thing is about this year's TA assessment. But any student who can successfully release the shield curse and sustain it for the longest time in Sir Carmel's flame will become my teaching assistant. "TA, Dumbledore's TA.

All of them couldn't help looking at the metal shining armor in front of the platform.

Some people have a blank face, some people have a fear face, but someone is about to jump up with excitement.

Agraia's face flushed as he lifted himself up with a slap on the table.

"I'll be the teaching assistant."

Like her, there was a group of excited Gryffindor, who looked at Dumbledore with eager to prove themselves.

"Don't worry." Said Dumbledore.

"Teaching assistants are hard work. I hope you have enough preparation and ability to accomplish it. Now, let's release the incantations and movements skillfully

Agraia couldn't wait to raise his hand. "Tariko skita!"

A cross with an arc appeared in her palm. In a moment, it became as big as an umbrella, and there was a flamingo like design on it.

(Hoffa frowns: "what are you doing to me?"

The magic wave made all the students around look at it, and Dumbledore immediately gave a thumbs up: "it's great, miss draesses, raven crowga is very good."

(Gryffindor's students don't agree immediately. They begin to test Dumbledore's new spell.)

Miranda commented: "yes, but your spirit seems unstable. The shield may not last long."

Agraia was immediately upset. She raised her hand to remove the shield.

"Well, what do you say? Am I not much better than the others?"

She pointed to the other students around.

At the moment, the voice of tariko skita is heard all over the classroom, but for the vast majority of people, they are just chanting incantations.

Few people can release this spell through their palms. Some students summon shields as small as their arms. Some even summon round shields as big as their palms.

Even some students don't believe in evil, but want to pick up the magic wand.

As a result, after using the wand, they not only did not release the shield, but caused all kinds of messy explosions. In the classroom, all kinds of lights are shining.

Dumbledore yelled, "don't use a wand. It's not a wand spell! Use your head and your heart. "

So the students who wanted to be clever put down their wands.

Miranda pointed to the blue armor standing in front of the classroom and said:

"what's the use of being better than them? If you want to be a teaching assistant, you should stick to that armor for at least one minute."

"A minute?" Agraia was a little skeptical.

"Yes."

"Why should I hold on for a minute?" Agraia said with disdain.

"Because I think I can hold on for at least one minute. If you can't hold on for one minute, why compete with me?"

With that, Miranda stood up, and a shield appeared in both hands. There were two very cartoon and abstract patterns on the shield, one was a smiling face, the other was a crying face.

The moment she summoned the shield, the magic fluctuated.

The whole class looked at it and took a breath of air.

Dumbledore looked happy and came quickly. But then he seemed to think of something, and walked back in the middle. Just an implicit nod to Miranda.

Hoffa was also stunned. The shield's quality is much better than that of last night's wind shield. It's worthy of being a genius of spell learning. They can't even call you out. It's good for you.

Agraya's eyes widened. It took a while to figure out, "you... You... You want to fight with me?"

Miranda removed his shield, pointed to the stunned Gryffindor group and said, "it's about Ravenclaw's honor. I won't give up this teaching assistant position."

"Damn it

Agraia sat down with her arms in her arms, sulking.

Miranda sat down, looked at her with her cheek, and said with a smile, "what's the matter, aglia? Pressure makes motivation."

"Pressure... Hum, ADBE must have taught you in advance."

Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at Hoffa.

"Hoffa, didn't you do well in the magic spell class last year? You try this spell

Miranda's eyes also turned to Hoffa: "yes, why don't you try now."

"Well, I'll try."

Hoffa coughed.

"Tarico skita."

No response, no shield, no animals, no cross.

"Well?"

Hoffa looked at his palm and felt strange.

Ah...

agraia looks at Miranda.

"It's a syllable, isn't it?""The syllables are OK, and the movements seem to be standard." Miranda rubbed her chin. "Hoffa, you have to be focused to release this spell. Like the patron saint, you have to think of something to cheer you up

"Excited?"

Look at the faces of Miranda and agraia.

Hoffa coughed again.

"Tarico skita."

Poof.

Click.

A small transparent bubble appeared in the palm of his hand, about the size of a ping-pong ball. Then the shield burst weakly and disappeared into the air.

After a few seconds of silence, the two onlookers looked at each other.

Miranda's mouth twitched.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ~"

agleia couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She put one hand on Hoffa's shoulder and the other on her chest, laughing back and forth.

"Huo... Huofa, you this... You this also..."

she wanted to say something, but then she burst out laughing again, and finally ran to one side with laughter, lying on the table, beating the table with one hand, covering her belly with the other hand, and her shoulders stirred.

Hoffa's face was a little ugly, and he didn't quite understand what was going on? I'm not too bad at my magic charm. Why can't I release the shield curse.
