"Yes, Harry... Take it, put your finger on the dot on the paper, and stand there."
"Ron! Didn't I say? Raise the paper on your right hand... It must be above your head! Up, up -"
"OK, that's right... Then I should walk to you with the last piece of paper..."
In the response room, Hermione was directing Harry and Ron to make a strange pose - they stood face to face, separated by a certain distance, with one hand tilted and the other raised, and carefully holding a hard cardboard in their hands.
The front of the four pieces of paper - that is, the side painted with several combinations such as niwen, is directly facing a magic spell training dummy not far away.
However, it is worth mentioning that all three were wearing protective gear, which was obviously worried that some possible accidents would suddenly come.
"Remember, just keep this action, don't move!" Hermione kept reminding them as she walked between them. "The first time is to be as accurate as possible, and then the error tolerance test..."
Although she kept talking, there was no delay in her hand. Soon she came to her position and confirmed the distance between her and Harry with her eyes.
"Hermione," said Ron, holding up his arm, "I can probably guess what you want to do, but... Can't we play with these pieces of paper with the floating spell?"
Hermione didn't even look at him after hearing it.
"Casting magic spells at close range will interfere with them -" she didn't raise her head. "Don't ask me why, I only know that those interferences do exist for the time being."
"Oh, I don't want to ask why..." Ron muttered in a low voice.
But this time, Hermione finally turned her head and stared at him as usual.
"Then don't ask anything!" she said angrily. "Just do what I say... And your right hand is retracted again! How many times do you want me to say?"
Harry on the other side had to shake his head in the bottom of his heart.
When Hermione focuses on her study and research, the best way to deal with it is to say less and do more - why doesn't Ron understand yet?
For a moment as Harry thought, Hermione seemed to have finally confirmed everything.
"All right!"
She suddenly stood up straight between them, took the fifth piece of paper in her hand, gently lifted it up and took it to her.
"Now, listen!" she said seriously. "Do you remember what I said at the beginning? If you find something bad, immediately put aside the paper and lie down on your head. Now listen to me count... Three... Two..."
"Hiss -"
Just as Hermione put her right index finger on the dot on the paper, she heard a sudden sound of the paper being lit, followed by a bang.
At that moment, Hermione immediately released the paper in her hand, and watched the paper painted with a lot of niwen completely turn into a small blue fireball, which burned out before it fell to the ground.
"Oh!"
Harry's reaction was even faster than Hermione's. He had already sold the paper when he found that it was inexplicably starting to ignite.
Only Ron, because he was more or less half a beat slower, burned his finger by the flame that spread quickly on the paper.
"Ron, are you okay?"
Harry asked his good friend, who was jumping with his fingers covered, with concern, for fear that the strange blue flame would burn Ron out.
But between them, Hermione didn't even change her face. Seeing that the piece of paper that took a lot of energy to draw was burned in a moment, she just flashed a trace of regret in her eyes, and then turned to her schoolbag.
As for Ron... Wasn't he burned by the fire?
Although the blue flame looked strange, there was nothing unusual, even slightly lower than the temperature of an ordinary flame.
"Is the material really bad... Well, at least this is enough to prove that my idea is correct! If niwen's combination wants to give better effect, it must be provided with some energy by wizards..."
At the same time, Hermione picked up some wooden pieces about the size of the paper from the floor beside the book bag. It seems that she had guessed the paper for a long time.
"But at that time, why could Maka make them effective with card paper?"
The ancient magic script experiment she prepared this morning refers to the application method demonstrated by Maka in class. Of course, for this experiment, Hermione spent a lot of time and energy, which is also a fact.
"Forget it, don't think about it first, now we have to hurry up to carry out the experiment..." putting aside the doubts in her mind for the time being, Hermione grabbed a few pieces of wood and turned around. "Just stand in position as just now - Ron! Don't look at me with that kind of eyes. What we have to do today is not even the first step!"
After that, they cooperated with each other and tried several wood and metal carriers again.
Soon Hermione found that most of the boards engraved with niwen took effect quickly, but the effect came and went faster, which led to the splashing of sawdust many times.
To this end, Harry's palm was also pierced with a sharp wooden thorn, which made him shake his hands and say that he needed to go to the school hospital to find Mrs. Pomfrey.
Contrary to Hermione's guess, metal, which she thought had considerable potential, had little reaction.
But it also made Harry and Ron secretly relieved, because they both felt that their hands might really be lost if the metal sheet exploded.
"Finally, we should go to class after the test!"
As Hermione spoke, she handed out four slap sized tablets to Harry and them. After such a series of attempts, they were already used to holding their arms and posing. After receiving the slate, they raised their hands very consciously.
"Many ancient magic inscriptions were found on stone slabs, so we have reason to believe that this is the most reliable carrier material..." Hermione said as she walked in the middle. "Of course, this is just my guess."
"So if we don't, we'll have to try like this every day?" said Ron weakly. "Oh, Hermione, my arms are sore! I mean --"
"Every day?" Hermione pursed her mouth and shook her head. Then she went on. "Do you think carving runevin is a very easy thing? Don't complain. Lift the slate to its place!"
After that, she confirmed the orientation and orientation of the four stone slabs again, and then held her stone slab forward.
"Ready," Hermione whispered, "three... Two..."
Counting down, she put her index finger on a dot groove of the slate. When her finger belly slightly felt the characteristics in the groove and the slight grain feeling produced by the drying of the ink, Harry and Ron suddenly felt a slight shock in their hands.
In an instant, the runiwen marks on the four stone plates showed a soft blue glow, and suddenly gathered from the four corners to the stone plate in Hermione's hand.
It may be complicated, but in fact, after blinking, a blue beam visible to the naked eye immediately radiated out to a large area in front.
"Bang!"
I saw that a certain brilliance seemed to directly penetrate the dummy's shoulder, and the remaining potential did not decrease, and fell heavily on the wall behind it.
And more, it is widely distributed in the area around the dummy, walls, floors and even ceilings, completely bombing the front without order.
At the same time, the whole piece of dust and gravel suddenly scattered and splashed.
Harry and Ron quickly turned their backs to block the stone chips flying towards them, presumably to avoid hurting their handsome faces.
The next moment they changed their actions, the beams were interrupted, and only Hermione stood in place with a slate in her hand, with a surprised expression on her face.
"Oh..." she said stupidly, "it's successful! It's really successful... I'm really successful!"
"You call that 'success'?" Ron covered the back of his head and said sadly, "Hermione, you're going to murder..."
"Of course it's successful!" Hermione waved her hand immediately. "See? There's no need to chant or wave a staff. It can be triggered directly as long as it's in a good position! It's even much faster than Maka's reduced smashing spell!"
"You mean... It's a smashing spell?" said Harry in surprise. "Smashed to pieces?"
Hermione shook her head when she heard it.
"No, it's not --" she explained, "it's just that the effect is somewhat similar... Based on the 'purple shirt', 'harvest' and 'expansion' in niwen, the power is increased through the 'oblique cross interpretation' combined with the 'running water'..."
"Wait! Wait..." Harry immediately waved his hands. "It's no use even if you tell us this. We don't understand... I just want to know. Did you think of it?"
"Hmm?" Hermione looked at the slate in her hand repeatedly and said casually. "Marca taught me a lot of knowledge. I just tried to combine them. This can't be regarded as my idea."
"Oh! Come on!" Ron said helplessly, "you're not the only one taking the n.e.w.ts course of ancient magic literature. Why didn't I see others make this?"
He said, paused a little, and then said frankly, "Hermione, you're smart enough to admit it! If you keep being modest, how can others live?"
"Really?" Hermione said. "I'm smart. Isn't it the first time you know that?"
