"... can't you figure it out?"

"Yes! It doesn't seem so easy."

The next morning, on the hillside outside the school, Maka was sitting on the ground with a pile of manuscript paper.

It can be seen that beside him is a small pile of waste manuscripts pressed with stones, which are also filled with all kinds of diagrams, formulas and notes.

More than half a month has passed since the last emergency escape from the black-and-white space. This time, Maka wanted to take the initiative to go in again. Unfortunately, without the guidance of the circular stone slab, he has not been able to find a way to go back.

More importantly, the magic node discovered by Luna when she came out has now disappeared.

In this way, Maka, who had no doubt, now had to guess that the round stone slab buried deep at the beginning might only be something helbo deliberately left there to disturb his sight.

Put another piece of parchment under the stone. Maka put down the stack of blank manuscript paper piled on her body, and then stretched a big stretch.

Suddenly, a breeze blew quietly. While stirring the grass leaves around him, he inadvertently took away a few pages of paper.

He subconsciously wanted to wave back the manuscript papers, but the next second was a sudden surprise. Then he honestly got up and picked them up with his own hands.

There's no way. There are Muggles in front of the hillside. He'd better not show his magic easily.

After picking up the pieces of blank manuscript paper blown away, he saw Maka standing in place and turned his head to look at it not far away.

The first thing that comes into view is the huge panel.

On the base of a shack about the size of the Weasley family, there is a square metal panel with support frame, which is straight to the sky and can hardly see how much inclination.

There is no doubt that this is the Muggle detection weapon - early warning radar that Maka borrowed from the old bishop and the queen through scrimger.

Of course, since many devices are still in the process of assembly, this thing can only look like it for the time being.

If this big guy can be put into use normally in the end, it must wait until the test run and see Hogwarts's "face".

After all, a lot of magic in Hogwarts castle will have a great impact on modern electrical equipment. Even if the radar is placed on the hillside outside the school gate, it may not be able to avoid interference!

At this point, even Maka can't be sure.

"If it can be used, at least it should be able to determine the position of the meteorite after it breaks into the atmosphere in time," he thought to himself, looking up at the blue sky.

In fact, using early warning radar is not a great idea. After all, the data provided by Maka includes the specific time and landing point.

The main problem is how to destroy it in one fell swoop in just a few tens of seconds after it enters the atmosphere.

According to old Victor's calculation, the missile is extremely difficult to complete such a difficult task, because as long as it can't be blown up, no matter how powerful it is, it's useless.

Therefore, at that time, the work of trying to destroy the big stone falling at high speed will only fall on Maka's head.

After looking at the sky for a while, he couldn't help shaking his head gently.

"Do you want to continue?"

Beside Maka, the windbreaker wizard who always followed him suddenly asked again.

"Of course."

……

When Maka outside the school was about to pick up her pen again, another class bell happened to ring in the castle.

Recently, a new round of Quidditch competition is about to start again, but it has nothing to do with Harry.

After quitting the college team, he spent more time with Neville than before. Neville is also a good friend. He usually spends more time with Harry exchanging magic experience than Hannah.

Now, after the end of the second class, the two who didn't arrange classes went upstairs and walked with each other to the responsive room.

"Harry, how are you today?"

"Yes, not bad - so I want to try again."

"Then come on! If you can make it bigger than last week, it's worth looking forward to... But if I say, it must be mine!"

"Hey, don't worry! I'll let you know my power..."

On the stairs, three Slytherin students passed the two. They secretly looked back and stared at the back of Harry and Neville.

"What are you looking at?"

Harry was acutely aware of the needle like look in his eyes, and immediately turned back and stared at them.

"Look what's wrong with you!"

One of Slytherin's junior students seemed a little unconvinced and couldn't help saying, but he was immediately pushed behind by another senior.

"Uh... No, nothing. We'll go down now."

"Hum!"

Harry curled his lips and was too lazy to pay attention to the three Slytherin snakes. He greeted Neville and continued up the stairs.

"Beck, why don't I say a few more words - they're just on good terms with McLean! What's the big deal?"

"Yes!" said another girl in the same grade, "and Professor McLean is not the kind of person who helps anyone with a good relationship. The red haired Weasley and Malfoy almost quarreled last semester, which was persuaded by Professor McLean!"

But who knows, the senior Slytherin immediately waved his hand and said:

"Who says that's what I'm doing? Well, you're still young and don't know those dirty things. Look at Porter and Longbottom. They've been together all day this semester... Tut tut tut."

"What?" the little girl wondered, "what's the 'dirty thing'? What's the matter with them?"

"Hey," the senior students could not help grinning, "don't you understand? Don't understand... Forget today! If you understand, I'm afraid you'll be sick and can't eat for lunch later!"

"Cough, hum."

When the little girl looked puzzled, a dry cough suddenly sounded behind them.

"What are you doing here? Go to class as soon as you have class and study in the public lounge when you don't have class - or do you want to follow me around the forbidden forest?"

"Professor Snape?"

Hearing the speech, the three hurried back to have a look, and then went downstairs.

Snape, who suddenly appeared here, looked sideways at them, then raised his head again and looked in the direction Harry and Neville left.

After a while, he didn't say anything. He just smacked his tongue unhappily and turned around and left.

……

On the other hand, Harry and Neville don't know. They are almost regarded as "good partners" with improper relations.

Of course, even if they heard it, it wouldn't be too painful - after all, in this regard, but Ron's Secret rumors are blocking them!

After Harry locked the door, Neville, who had already gone inside to light up the room, waved his wand and motioned to Harry:

"Hurry up! There's only one class hour. There's a history of magic to be taught later!"

After talking casually, Neville suddenly pointed his wand forward and shouted:

"Call God's guard!"

Although he has been able to cast the patron saint curse with the technique of silent curse for a long time, according to the theory of Maka's data, it is possible to exert the most powerful power of a curse only by clearly reading the curse text.

With Neville's wand waving and mantra chanting, a large silver white bright light fog immediately spewed out and condensed into a strong shining lion in front of him.

Here, Harry first looked at Neville's Lion patron saint, and then pulled out his Phoenix Tail wand.

If it had been in a certain period, when he saw Neville, the patron saint, he would immediately envy him. But now, he won't.

From asking Neville sincerely to today, Harry has a deeper understanding of the patron saint curse.

Moreover, his understanding was not realized by chance like Neville, but something he really worked out by himself.

Obviously, the reason why Neville can summon today's Lion patron saint must be that his intention to protect grandma completely broke through the appearance of cowardice in the past. When his courage suddenly burst out, the courage to protect highlighted his real heart in an instant.

However, the image of the patron saint is actually just a symbol, which does not represent the strength of the patron saint curse itself.

Harry's own patron saint is the stag, so the best way for the patron saint to grow is not to try to change the image, but to continue to explore the meaning symbolized by the "stag".

"Casting the patron saint curse requires happy memories or guardian beliefs."

After reciting this sentence again, Harry also leaned out his wand, and there was no confusion in his eyes.

"Call God's guard."

At the moment when the silver light erupted, he flashed the shadow of his long dead parents, Dumbledore's kind smile, and of course Ginny, Ron, Hermione, Neville and a series of companions.

In the end, those pictures that flashed quickly were finally fixed on Maka's back.

The next second, the huge amount of silver light fog scattered around him shrank suddenly, and a stag with huge antlers like a tree crown suddenly ran out of it and jumped around him.

There is no doubt that the patron saint is still the image of a stag, but it is quite different from the past in many details.

More importantly, its size has not lost to the male lion of Neville.

"Hey! Look! It must be bigger than yours this time!"
