I swung my greatsword at Hogwarts

Chapter 103 Level 4 Runes and Ancient Magic



The owl bumped against the window, knowing without a second thought that it was the old Weasley owl.

Opening the window and lifting the owl up, John took the letter from its mouth.

"Traveled to Egypt?"

Ron wrote to John to tell John that their family was going to travel to Egypt, and said sorry to John that the invitation to the Burrow could only be postponed.

"If I don't mention it, I'll forget about it."

Ron invited John to the Burrow in second year, but John forgot about it when he got home.

He thought that Ron would not invite him, after all, he was thinking about how to experiment with Banban.

Percy also sent a letter, in which he thanked John for securing the position of student council president for him, and vaguely mentioned that he wanted to work in the Ministry of Magic in the future.

"It seems to be done, Ministry of Magic. I remember him doing well in the Ministry of Magic."

As an outlier in the Weasley family, Percy can be said to be full of experience for officials.

From the prefect to the head of the male student council, and then to work in the Ministry of Magic.

Every step has a clear goal.

John smiled: "In that case, it's okay if I help you."

He took out the quill, wrote a letter and sent it to old Barty Crouch, who, after John's observation and understanding, knew that he was a person worthy of deep friendship.

Among other things, John admired the old Barty Crouch's behavior of righteously exterminating his relatives.

Presumably the talented Percy would also be very interested in going over there to Batty Sr.

After dealing with the letters every day, John picked up a "Daily Prophet".

The turmoil of Mr. Johnny Silverhand gradually passed, and the opening of a vigilant black magic museum seemed to show that Johnny Silverhand was not that kind of extremely greedy dark wizard.

Now the paper's cover was an acquaintance, Lockhart.

For the sixth time, he was named the most charming smile by Wizards Weekly, and the paper also reported on Lockhart's new book.

""I Swing the Great Sword at Hogwarts" became popular in the wizarding world as soon as it was released, and it has been the number one seller for three consecutive weeks. Gilderoy Lockhart's resume at Hogwarts adds to his legendary life. A brilliance."

John has to say that Lockhart is a talent, as long as his affairs are not exposed, then Lockhart is a well-deserved number one in the magic world.

This book quickly became popular in the magic world. Although the content in it was a little watery, but this time Lockhart was very witty, and he chose to use the method of two protagonists.

A handsome, powerful professor of magic is paired with a talented Hogwarts legendary student.

What happened in it is also a real adaptation, teaching and basilisks, and finally the truth is revealed.

From inheritance to transformation, it can be called a masterpiece.

I, John Wick, would call it the strongest.

"Maybe I can keep wrapping him up."

There is such a cash cow that is not used, which is too sorry for the top name.

John rubbed his chin, feeling the need to contribute.

Taking out a pen and paper, he sent a letter to Rita Skeeter.

I believe that with the name of the "Daily Prophet", Lockhart can continue to create miracles.

He contributed to the flames behind the scenes, and of course he did not offer his courtesy for nothing. He had the money to accept Lockhart's book.

Let Silverhand Johnny win the copyright, and John and Lockhart will split the accounts.

Running this book well will also bring a lot of money to John.

Head to the basement.

This place has completely become John's territory, and there are many dangerous props in it, so John will lock it when he leaves.

After a day of knowledge intake and practice, John's runes were also successfully upgraded.

Double material level 4, John opened "Fairy Foundry" again, and now he can understand everything in it.

It has to be said that goblins can be nourished in the magical world, and this miraculous casting method is unique.

"Fairy magic..."

Looking at the goblin magic inside, John was lost in thought.

This kind of magic is also called ancient magic, and it is a very ancient existence.

Specifically, it can be pushed back to the period before the Big Four, when goblins were not yet under the jurisdiction of wizards.

Leprechaun magic does not rely on wands, it is like innate magic.

"Ancient runes are also one of the ancient magics, no wonder runes are needed."

After carefully reading the knowledge in the book, John tried to use the goblin method to cast it.

"Mobilize elements and inject them into props to build a natural magic circuit."

John wore the magic crystal, with his hands outstretched and pointed forward.

As his thoughts hit, a whirlwind appeared in the closed basement out of thin air.

"Wind element."

Staring at the whirlwind, John continued to hold his breath, and under his control, the wind kept circling, approaching a ring of spells on the table.

At the moment of contact, the ring of spells was triggered, and a petrification spell brushed John's cheek.

The wind elemental is terminated.

"It seems that a few more tests are needed."

John frowned. This "Fairy Foundry" also involves ancient magic, and it is too difficult.

Do I want to find a goblin to make a sword directly like Gryffindor?

I just thought that all the goblins are in Gringotts now, and whether they have the manufacturing technology is a problem.

The original Gryffindor was created by looking for the goblin king. This craft is definitely not something that ordinary goblins can have.

Thinking of this, John couldn't help sighing, and said tiredly, "I still have to rely on myself."

I looked at the callout panel, and there were two remaining points that were not used, and a new skill appeared in the skill bar.

"Proficient in ancient magic?"

The newly appeared skills are only level 1, and it is still impossible to continue to upgrade.

That skill is greyed out, which means that John needs to accumulate enough knowledge.

"If you want to upgrade again, you need more accumulation of ancient magic."

John stared at this skill, which touched him in a blind spot of his knowledge.

After all, he doesn't even know what ancient magic is, so it's really difficult for him to learn it.

Putting this matter aside for the time being, John finished reading "Fairy Foundry" in its entirety.

Now this book is not too difficult for him, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an expert in alchemy and runes.

"Although this book records some knowledge about goblin casting, it is not comprehensive enough."

After closing the book, John rubbed his eyebrows.

It seems that I have to change direction again.

I hope that there are books in the restricted area that can help me.

In terms of ancient magic, I can go to the secret room of the two giants to have a look.

They are the oldest people John knows, if not, then only from the time of the three brothers of the Deathly Hallows.

For the next few days, John spent the whole time in the basement.

He gradually mastered the other three elemental magics including wind magic, namely fog magic, water magic, and fire magic.

Wind can enhance perception, fog can shield the figure, water can call water flow, fire can call flame.

The application of the four magics can be used without a wand, which is a very good harvest for John.

...

"Tom, do a backflip."

"It's amazing, how did you train this dog?"

"So-so, that is, teach casually."

Someone came to the family, and it was a friend of the old man's business.

In order to increase the relationship, the other party also brought a child about the same age as John.

However, when John saw the arrogant child, he felt like he was accompanying the child.

So much so that he betrayed Tom and ran out to stay by himself.

"Ah, fresh air."

John stood on the side of the road breathing the air of freedom, and he swore he would never want to socialize with these little kids again.

It was even more painful than talking about money with Xixiu.

He complained: "Compared to that brat, Draco seems sensible."

Spoiled kids are everywhere, and John doesn't want to bother with that kid.

Walking aimlessly on the side of the road, he found a black dog.

The black dog seemed to have been hungry for many days. Even through the thick fur, John could tell that the dog was very thin.

He admits that the dog is not good-looking enough, but as a plush party, John still took a pack of small fish and dried it out.

"Have you been hungry for a long time?"

The black dog was looking in one direction, and was a little dazed when he heard the sound.

A dark-haired boy brought him small dried fish, although it didn't look like a dog would eat it.

As a big dog who has been hungry for a long time, he still eats without hesitation.

Looking at the way it eats, John has some sympathy.

Patting the dog's head, John said to himself, "I don't know where you came from, stray dogs are not allowed around here."

This big black dog looks sloppy, but the hair quality is surprisingly good.

John was a little addicted to rubbing, and didn't notice the astonished eyes of the black dog at all.
