Chapter 338： The true face of the House of Requirement

, I was spotted by Grindelwald and went to Hogwarts

The ability of a wizard comes from talent, which is inherited by blood. Every wizard is born with magic, which is like having an extra arm that manifests as an extension of your magic. It can communicate your own source of magic power with the magical world, so that a resonance-like effect is formed between the two, and the magic spell can exert its power.

This way of communication follows specific gestures, incantations, thoughts and emotions. The incantation is like a key that unlocks a 'rule' in this magical world.

In the process of Shaun's exploration of the wizarding world, he very much agrees with this explanation in Adebe Waughlin's "Theory of Magic".

He is also constantly trying to come up with his own insights and create a key of his own.

Obviously, this is very difficult.

However, just in the process of his constant comparison and construction of the Bison Bomb and the Blink Charm, Sean found that he seemed to have got a bit of a trick.

He seems to understand the essence of the summoning spell a little bit.

Build connections, span spaces.

This is the answer Sean found.

On the side, Hermione and Daisy, who didn't dare to speak out, looked at Sean with a look of surprise and enjoyment. They saw Sean gently waving his wand, and an extremely weak but correct direction of magic was being controlled by his The tip of the wand spread out.

An hour, two hours, three hours, the castle had closed its eyes, and Sean finally stood up suddenly.

"I found it!" His eyes lit up, without a trace of fatigue.

Leaning on the soft cushion and hugging each other, the two girls whose eyelids were fighting suddenly woke up.

"Sean?"

Sean turned around excitedly in place, and he said to the two: "I know how to combine two spells, if my idea is correct, then I may really be able to infinitely expand the distance of the flash spell, and even be able to. into the original form of the House of Requirement."

Hermione and Daisy looked at each other, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

If Sean succeeds, then there will be a brand new spell in the wizarding world, which is essentially a summoning spell but the effect is a teleportation spell with long-distance teleportation.

"Let me test it out, let's go out first—" Sean shouted impatiently.

Daisy and Hermione stood up obediently, and they saw a small black bug sprouting from the tip of Sean's wand.

Shadow bug spell, detection magic, which Sean got from Gormley Gaunt.

Leaving the Shadow Worm in the house, a few people walked out of the Room of Requirement.

On the corridor on the eighth floor, Sean turned to look at the stone wall that had returned to its former appearance, and closed his eyes to sense it.

He didn't use this method to locate, but to use this method to determine the trajectory of the magic power.

If he can successfully sense it, Sean has the confidence to use it to judge the inanimate source of magic power represented by the body of the Room of Requirement. Then, using the method of establishing connections he learned from the summoning spell, he used this to build his own magical outline across the space.

As soon as he closed his eyes, Sean clearly felt the source of the magic.

it works!

Sean remained calm and carefully analyzed the direction and trajectory of the flow of magic power.

The Blink Charm requires the wizard's magic to extend out to construct a magic outline at a fixed position. This extension can be understood as Shaun's magic turning into a line to move out.

However, this thread can't be too far away from Sean, so the distance of the flashing spell is also very close.

At this moment, Sean used the method of finding the summoned object in the summoning spell. He skillfully combined the key points of the two spells. The line used to build the outline no longer extended slowly, but 'drilled' through space. out.

The line that drilled out along the trajectory of the magic power finally landed in the right place.

Sean immediately manipulated and outlined himself.

When the outline was formed, Sean opened his eyes and quickly waved his right hand with a brand new wand motion.

"The track flickers."

He disappeared in place as if he had used a normal flash.

"No change..." Inside the room of responsiveness, Sean looked at the scene around him.

His shadow worms are lying on the ground honestly, and the surroundings are still the same as when they left here.

However, this time Sean didn't come in through the door.

This shows that the spell he created is useful! That is to say, as long as Sean can leave his magic mark elsewhere, then he can teleport over a long distance. Of course, it is more appropriate to use flicker.

Because Flicker is a summoning spell, it will not be restricted by Hogwarts, nor will it be caught by an anti-apparition spell like Apparition.

Of course, flickering at long distances requires more testing.

However, this was enough to make Sean excited.

Unfortunately, the current House of Requirement is obviously not the most primitive appearance.

Sean raised his cheeks and thought.

Will the Room of Requirement keep the look of the previous visitor's needs until the next visitor asks?

This does not seem reasonable.

Because Sean has tried to quickly enter and exit the Room of Requirement, and at the same time constantly put forward different needs, the response speed of this magical room is very fast.

not quite right...

Sean thought for a while, pushed the door and walked out.

In the corridor, Daisy and Hermione looked at him in shock.

"you succeeded?!"

Sean nodded: "The spell was successful, but the Room of Requirement still looks like it was before we left. How about you?"

Hermione said: "According to what you said, after you disappeared, I started to meditate. The wooden door appeared, but I didn't push it open. After I changed a request, the door disappeared. Like the previous experiment, there was someone in the room. , the needs are different, and the House of Requirement will not respond to you.”

Is it because I'm already inside... Sean nodded.

He decided to change his mind.

"I need a bathroom."

"I need a bathroom."

"I need a bathroom."

Sean meditated silently in front of the stone wall.

Soon, the stone wall kept changing, and the wooden door appeared in front of him.

Sean didn't push the door in a hurry and went in. He repeated the previous action again. As the spell landed, he successfully flashed into the room of request again.

This time, what shocked Sean happened. The Room of Requirement he was in was still the same as before, the room that he and Hermione Daisy used to practice spells all year round.

Not a bathroom full of luxurious toilets!

The most important thing is that there is no wooden door to go out!

The place that was supposed to be the door turned into a bare stone wall. Sean walked over and touched it. It was exactly the same material as other stone walls, and there was nothing special about it.

In other words, he has now entered a separate space.

This is very similar to his previous conjecture!

The Room of Requirement does not change its furnishings at any time according to the wishes of the visitors, but opens the door of the room you want!

Sean suddenly felt his mind broadened.

He circled the room and finally cast the spell again.

The sudden appearance of Sean startled Hermione and Daisy. Hermione stroked her chest and said hurriedly, "Scared me! Why didn't you push the door out this time."

"Because there is no way." Sean recounted his experience.

"You entered a new room? No, no, you entered the old room? No, no..." Daisy was a little confused.

Sean smiled slightly: "Let's experiment again."

Soon, he repeated it again, and when he flashed again, Hermione told him immediately.

"We can't open this door!"

Sure enough, because Sean himself was in the Room of Requirement, the door to the luxurious bathroom couldn't be opened!

It's getting closer and closer to what I guessed.

Sean stood in front of the restored stone wall with a look of excitement.

"I need a place where I can practice spells and barbecue myself, take a shower, and play Quidditch at the same time."

He walked back and forth, thinking silently in his heart.

And this time, the Room of Requirement still responded to him.

However, the speed of the stone wall changing and creeping is much slower than before!

It took a lot of time for the wooden door to take shape.

This time, Sean pushed open the wooden door and walked in.

The room inside is bigger than ever, and on one side is a place for practicing magic spells, just like the room where Sean got into the vanishing cabinet and met Grindelwald when he first came.

The bookshelves full of spell books, practice dummies, etc., the vanishing cabinet was quietly placed in its original position, and on the ground in the center lay a shadow worm that had been staying there.

On the other side, there is an open space with iron racks and bonfires that can be barbecued, and tables and chairs are carefully placed beside it.

Somewhat comically, these things were placed in the middle of a small Quidditch pitch, with three Quaffle **** erected in front of them.

What's even more funny is at the back. Below the three goals, there is a room against the stone wall. With the door open, there are several bathtubs that have been filled with hot water.

Funny, though out of place, the House of Requirement did meet Sean's request.

And the existence of shadow worms also confirmed Sean's idea.

When the Room of Requirement first appeared in the castle, it was indeed an instant response to the needs of visitors, and it would 'create' a new room on the spot. Then, it will 'store' the room, and next time, if there is the same demand, it will not make it on site, but will open the door of the old room to the visitor.

And the needs of visitors should be a big category, such as "I want a place to hide things", "I want to find a place to hide", "I want a place with second-hand crucibles" and so on.

This kind of demand will be directed to a fixed room, because the Room of Requirement determines that this room can meet your needs.

For thousands of years, more and more rooms have been 'stored', and the House of Requirement can meet the needs of later generations without creating new rooms.

And just now, Sean's request was wrong, and the inventory of the Room of Requirement could not be satisfied, so it created a new room, so it took longer than usual to form the wooden door.

Obviously, the Room of Requirement cannot duplicate items, so it will synthesize the old rooms that meet the requirements into a new room that meets the needs.

In this case, maybe you can try my method...

Sean eliminated the original shadowworm, then took off his watch, and put another shadowworm into the watch.

He put down his watch and went out. When the stone wall was restored, he instructed Hermione.

"Later, you come and say it silently. I need a place where I can practice spells, barbecue myself, take a bath, and play Quidditch at the same time, but I can't find a mechanical watch with Wallup's name engraved on it."

After Hermione complied, the wooden door quickly appeared.

Sean immediately closed his eyes, he wanted to find out, where did the watch that was just put down by himself and then excluded from the room go!

The magical trajectory of the shadow worm is still clear and followable, and Sean quickly outlines the outline of the magical power.

"The track flickers!"

Then, Sean appeared in mid-air!

However, he had already prepared himself without any panic, and a magic spell fluttered to the ground.

"The watch is flying."

In midair, the watch that was floating in one direction fluttered into Sean's hands.

And the whole picture here is also shown in Sean's eyes.

This is a huge bluestone square. The material of the slate is similar to the floor of the library—or, in other words, it is a classical library.

Perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as an exhibition hall.

There are three floors. Except for the aisle in the center, there are neatly arranged shelves everywhere. They are placed in different categories. From the second floor, they float steadily in mid-air, with books, armor, dummies, birds on them. Cages, toilets, bones...

What you can imagine, what you can't imagine, this is a museum.

The only strange thing is that the exhibits on the shelves are scarce, and the whole exhibition hall looks empty And on the wall, inside the rectangular lampshade carved from crystal, the blue flames are not gloomy, they emit a soft glow. And the warm light makes the whole space feel comfortable.

Through the gap, Sean saw the surrounding walls. No, to be precise, they were translucent doors.

Sean walked over slowly. He saw the utility room full of brooms, the bathroom full of toilets, and various rooms.

These are the rooms in the House of Requirement that have been made and stored... Sean understood right away.

He continued to walk and saw a huge utility room, which was exactly where his watch was going to float.

Not only the first floor, but also the second and third floors.

Sean looked up, and he saw the center of the ceiling, where it was like a starry night sky, and the constant shooting stars made the entire ceiling dreamlike.

Here is what the House of Requirement looked like at the very beginning...

The corners of Sean's mouth rose involuntarily. He walked in along the aisle, his field of vision gradually broadened, and the display rack slowly moved away.

Finally, he saw the innermost appearance.

The stars twinkled above, runes, parchment, and quills floated around, the blue drapery moved without wind, and a giant bronze eagle was soaring.

They all surround a statue as white as jade.

That's Rowena Ravenclaw.
