Chapter 114 How Do You Know This?
The Fiercefire Curse did not attract the attention of the little wizards. Seamus often controlled the flames for performances, and most people were used to the occasional fire.
Nix didn't dare to practice the Fiercefire Curse alone, because his magic power was not well controlled, and practicing the Fiercefire Curse alone was courting death.
Every time he practiced, he asked Seamus to help him dispel the uncontrolled Fiendfire, at least not to burn himself.
After dispelling Nix's Fiendfire again, Seamo asked suspiciously: "Nix, can't you make a potion to sort out your magic power and keep it under control?"
Nix explained: "Yes, it is not difficult to make potions to sort out the magic power, but the effect of the potions has a time limit. Once the time is up, the magic power will be difficult to control again, and it will be difficult to release any spells at that time. Why don't you continue to practice now? , There will be times when you can’t release any spell you want to use.”
"Then does my potion have a time limit?" Seamus was a little nervous. If his potion also had a time limit, would he become a bomber in the future?
Nix said with a smile: "Don't worry, your potion has no time limit, and its effect will last until you die. Let's continue to practice the Fiercefire Curse."
Time passed quickly, Nix had mastered the Fiendfyer Curse, Harry couldn't ask anything in the diary anymore, and the diary was no longer carried by him.
In March, the second-year little wizards received a curriculum schedule, which included elective courses for the third grade. They needed to choose at least two of the five courses to take, and the previous compulsory courses would continue.
The five elective courses are arithmetic and divination, Muggle studies, prophecy, ancient spells, and protection of magical creatures.
In the library, the Gryffindors were all gathered together, and Harry looked worried, not knowing what to choose.
A lot of letters came from Neville's home, with a lot of advice on what course Neville should choose, but it was of no use.
"Nix, what course are you going to take?"
Nix glanced at Neville and marked three courses on the timetable.Muggle Studies, Ancient Charms, Protecting Fantastic Beasts.
Simo on the side asked curiously, "Why did you choose these three courses?"
"Because of interest." Nix replied.
Hermione on the other side had already ticked off all the subjects.She took Nix's schedule and said, "Nix, you should be like me, choose all of them, and you can learn them all."
Nix wasn't interested in the twelve certificates, and got back the timetable before Hermione ticked it off. "I'm not interested in divination and language, and I don't want to waste time. But I support your choice."
Neville sighed: "Only Hermione can choose all."
Nix looked at him and said, "I suggest you choose all of them."
This sentence made several people around look at him.
Harry wondered: "Do you think Neville is as smart as Hermione?"
Ron despises: "He can't learn it."
Hermione stared at Nix and said, "What do you mean?"
Nix replied: "These five courses represent different development directions. The seven courses we are studying now are the foundation, which must be mastered as a wizard.
In the third grade, these five courses will not teach too profound knowledge. Naville, you can try all of them. Choose whichever two you learn well, and give up the ones you don’t learn well. "
Simo asked with interest: "What about me, what should I choose? Do I choose all like them?"
Nix thought for a while and replied: "Look at yourself, you can learn whatever you want. In fact, the biggest purpose of electing is to let us choose the courses we are interested in, but for Neville, the courses he is interested in may not be able to keep up with him." That's why I suggested that he choose all of them."
Harry: "Nix, can you tell me what these classes are about?"
Nix put down the book on magical creatures in his hand, and analyzed: "In my opinion, Muggle research is a reward for all non-pure-blood wizards, and no one will make a mistake about those things. The rarer ones are some spells. Also note that the correct answer is not the standard answer.”
"What do you mean?" Hermione asked.
"Normally speaking, the car is driven on the road, but the Weasley family's car is flying. If you ask a question about the car during the test, the correct answer is to drive on the road. If the Weasley family formulates the answer will become flying."
Ron retorted hoarsely: "Our family knows that cars are driven on land, not for flying. My dad cast an invisibility spell on them. Under normal circumstances, Muggles would not find flying cars."
Nix ignored Ron and continued to explain: "Ancient runes are the cornerstone of alchemy. It also has a certain relationship with potions. Advanced potions will use alchemy props, which we will come into contact with in senior grades, Nick. Flamel's stuff is the highest masterpiece of alchemy. If you are interested in it, you can choose this."
Harry, Ron and Hermione all knew what Nix was talking about, and they shook their heads together.
"I don't need to say more about the protection of magical animals. They are just some magical animals. It should be noted that these magical animals are usually still dangerous to us. Sylvanus Kettleburn in the Forbidden Forest As you all know the professor, he gets hurt a lot.
The remaining arithmetic, divination and language are hard to say, they are very simple and difficult.Talented people can throw away the textbooks and succeed casually, and the exams are very easy for them.A person without talent will never learn it in his life.
But it’s different during the exam, the test paper is the content in the book, and the on-site examiners, I doubt them, maybe their level is the same as yours, they just memorized the content in the book. "
Ron was pleasantly surprised: "That's not going to be easy."
Hermione struck out: "You can't pin your hopes on the examiner not being able to do it. If the examiner who comes has talent, you're finished."
She turned to Nix and asked, "How do you know this?"
"The pure-blood family not only has black magic collections, if you are interested, you can ask Tifa for my father's notes." Nix replied.
He picked up the book about magical creatures again, and the next page was the introduction of the basilisk.Nix was stunned for a moment. The magic egg laid by the rooster was hatched by the toad. It is very unscientific, but very magical.It has a wide range of recipes, and it can be eaten by birds, reptiles, and insects, and spiders are its favorite.
There is also the attack method of the basilisk, direct contact with the basilisk will kill you, and indirect contact will cause petrification, but a well-trained wizard can easily kill the basilisk, as long as an eye sickness spell can make the basilisk fall into chaos.
After reading this book, Nix realized that spiders are afraid of basilisks not because spiders have many eyes and can easily meet the eyes of basilisks, but because basilisks like to eat spiders.I also understand why the basilisk in the secret room can live for thousands of years. The secret room is connected to the sewer, not to mention countless mice, and there are many other edible things.
He went through the borrowing procedures with Mrs. Pince, the librarian, and he wanted to take it back and study it carefully without letting Hermione get it, to see if he could prevent Hermione from being petrified on her own initiative.
