Chapter 100： The study of spells

"He, he, he... he took Pippi!"

Looking at Lin's back, Ron stammered in disbelief.

Harry was also surprised, but he didn't understand why Ron was so surprised.

"Pippy is very annoying. Yesterday we almost got caught by Filch. It's a good thing that Lynn caught him."

Ron shook his head: "Harry, you don't understand, do you think Peppy is just a simple trick and prank ghost?"

He told Harry the stories his parents had told their brothers.

"In 1876, of course, the castle administrator of Hogwarts, Lankoros Calpe, designed an intricate trap in order to drive Pippi out of the castle. The trap consisted of various decoy weapons, and a huge , It is composed of bell jars that have been cast various containment spells. When Pippi gets into the right place, the bell jar will fall down to hold this prank ghost.

But everything did not go according to plan.

Pippi easily exploded the bell jar, and left with a few scimitars, a few crossbows, a large-caliber musket and a small cannon. Pippi started shooting at will for fun, and the students' lives were threatened. As a result, the castle had to be evacuated for three days. "

Harry opened his mouth wide as he listened to Ron's narration. He had never thought that the prankster Peppy would cause such a lot of damage.

"What about afterwards?"

"Later? About three days later, the then president of Hogwarts, Professor Euprathea Moore, agreed to sign an agreement with Pepy Ghost, asking him to surrender his weapons in exchange for more authority. I heard that he was every week. You can take a swim in the boys’ bathroom on the first floor, give priority to the moldy bread in the kitchen for littering, and get a new hat specially made for him by Ms. Bonabili.

This is the most catastrophic and final attempt to get rid of Pepy Ghost. This incident also forced Mr. Calpe to retire early "for health reasons." "

"He finally forced a castle keeper away!" Harry exclaimed.

Ron spread his hand and said: "Yes, Pepi Ghost is so powerful. He is different from other ghosts. He is very different. That's why I was shocked that the little wizard named Lynn could be caught so easily. It. This is something the principal of Hogwarts could not do."

Harry's mood was a bit complicated, and he gradually got an impression of the title of the best little wizard in his class.

……

Lynn didn't know how Harry and Ron were talking about him behind their backs.

Even if he knew it, he would only look dazed.

In fact, he was just a coincidence to catch Pippi. The soul-enclosed curse, a partial curse created by Professor Fox, can be used by wizards in the entire magical world. Even if you have heard of it, you can count it. come over.

Lynn just took advantage of the information asymmetry. The Pippi who wanted it knew the effect of the Soul Sealing Curse, and it was estimated that he had slipped away when he drew out his wand.

However, the goal of catching Pippi was finally completed.

In the small bottle, the ball-shaped Pepy Ghost was still screaming and cursing. Linn didn't care at all. The experimental materials made him feel very good.

Instead of going back to the bedroom, he walked all the way to a strange tapestry on the eighth floor of the castle.

There is a ballet teacher on the tapestry who intends to teach a giant monster to dance ballet.

Lynn ignored the giant monster blowing his nostrils. He stood by the blank wall opposite the tapestry and walked back and forth three times while muttering in his heart.

‘I want a room that belongs to me...’

Soon, a door suddenly appeared on the blank wall.

Lynn didn't hesitate, opened the door and walked in.

This is a small room, about 70 or 80 square meters, with a desk, a bookshelf piled with parchment, and three wooden dummies used as curse targets.

This is Lynn’s secret base at Hogwarts.

He sat at the desk and poured Pippi Ghost out of the glass bottle. The "Pippi Ball" screamed and rolled around on the desk. The effect of the soul-sealing curse was very strong, and it has not been lifted now.

This spell was invented by Professor Fox.

The original purpose was to catch the ghost of Wilkes' father, the dark wizard hiding in the forbidden forest.

It can restrain the creatures in the soul state and change their shape arbitrarily.

The principle of the Soul Sealing Curse comes from the book "Exorcising Spirits and Evil: Soul Capture".

Lynn had just mastered this spell completely two days ago, and today he did an experiment with Pippi.

Strictly speaking, Pepy Ghost is not a ghost. It is recorded in the book "Hogwarts: A School History" that Lynn gave to Hermione. At the beginning of Hogwarts, Pepy Ghost It has been formed.

He was not formed by a wizard after his death, but rather like an aggregate of consciousness has all the qualities of a ghost, but can do things that a ghost can't do, such as contacting entities.

However, even if he is not a ghost, he belongs to a kind of spirit body, and the Soul Sealing Curse still works on him.

Lynn touched a quill beside him with his magic wand, turning it into a paper knife.

Pippi screamed in horror, because Lynn was trying to cut a piece from his body.

But Lynn failed. Even if Pippi's body was modified by the Soul Sealing Curse, it still cannot be destroyed by ordinary objects.

The feel of the paper cutter cutting on Pippi Gui’s body is like cutting a piece of unusually flexible leather, which cannot be cut.

Lynn thought for a while, and raised his wand again, wanting to test the effect of the spell on Pippi, such as whether Shenfeng Wuying can cut a piece of spiritual substance from it.

But he squinted at Pepigui for a while, and finally gave up the idea in his mind.

Pippy Ghost is just a kid who likes to play pranks. Although he is usually annoying, but in the original book he also helped the teachers and students of Hogwarts defeat the Voldemort gang.

After all, he is still a good ghost. If he accidentally breaks the game, Lynn will feel sorry for him, and Dumbledore may still trouble him.

His eyes were very scary just now, Pippi clearly felt that he had just walked around the ghost gate, shaking all over, and even cursing people turned into begging for mercy.

Lynns took back his wand slowly, and it was good to be scared, at least he could now ask questions properly.

"As long as I am in a good mood, you will be fine, so you have to answer my next question honestly, otherwise I don't guarantee what I will do. Can you understand what I mean? Peppy ghost."
