Hogwarts Card System.

Chapter 164 Time Turner and May Knowledge
Faced with Ted's indirect questioning, Professor McGonagall directly denied Ted's choice.

"No, Ted. There's no way around it because of time. You can only choose four subjects at most, and there can't be any time conflicts."

When Ted heard this, he was like, "That's not right, professor! You are being biased!"
"Professor, I heard from the seniors that there is something that can solve time conflicts?" Ted looked obedient and careful.

Professor McGonagall rolled her eyes when she saw this. This kid was always trying to be nice at times like this: "Who told you this?!"

She took off her glasses and looked at Ted. "Listen, I don't know who you heard this from, but time-turners have been strictly prohibited, and almost all of them have been destroyed by the Ministry of Magic. So, you can't take all the subjects for nearly ten years..."

Ted heard: Hmm! What happened that was out of the original book?!
He immediately asked. Finally, Professor McGonagall had no choice but to give a brief explanation.

That time converter can safely take a person back to as early as five hours ago.

This thing is a magic item made by ancient fairies using unique ancient magic. It can turn back time for the holder.

But now this thing has long been lost, not only the production method, but also the raw materials are said to have been consumed.

And using this thing is risky.

There was once a witch who used a time converter that went wrong and went back a hundred years ago. When we finally found a way to bring her back, she had died of old age within a few days. Moreover, time was disrupted and many accidents occurred.

Later, it was stipulated that the maximum time to go back is 5 hours, which is the safety threshold.

But Professor McGonagall said that the Ministry of Magic banned this thing and even destroyed it all.

Because after the first conjunction of the stars, time was disrupted for a period of time, that is, the climate and celestial bodies were all messed up during that period of time.

Later, wizards discovered that there was a problem with the time converter, and that using it would often cause irreversible and terrible consequences.

The time it could be used safely became shorter and shorter, and by ten years ago it was almost unusable. Every time it was used, something bad happened, and the time in the entire area was messed up. In the end, they were all destroyed.

Ted was curious and continued to ask: "Professor, what are the terrible consequences?"

Professor McGonagall glanced at him and said, "I don't know what that wizard did during that time. When he came back, no one recognized him, and everything he knew had changed. His parents were not together more than thirty years ago, and they did not give birth to him..."

Ted was stunned. What was going on?
"No one knows him? How can we be sure that what he said is true?" Ted asked.

"Because three days later, that man disappeared, right under the noses of five wizards during the interrogation at the Ministry of Magic. Later, the Ministry of Magic found two fortune tellers to jointly predict and prove what the man said. He was telling the truth."

"He said he was the Director of the Department of Mysteries, that he had worked in the Ministry of Magic for more than ten years, and that he came back because of an accident while carrying out a time mission..."

"These are all true. However, it is also true that his parents were not together and did not give birth to him. I don't know what he did, but he no longer existed during this period of time, and finally disappeared in front of everyone..."

Professor McGonagall stood up, walked to Ted, and touched his head: "Ted, I know that smart people are always confident, but you must remember to respect magic. Wizards have their limits, we are not omnipotent, including time..."

Ted came out of Professor McGonagall's office, still a little dazed.

I have cheats and knowledge of other worlds, so I feel a little proud.

Thank you Professor McGonagall for your timely reminder. I should always remember that I am just a mortal, otherwise I would end up like Voldemort sooner or later.

……

"Ted, what are you staring at?" Hermione pushed him.

"Oh, sorry, just remembered something funny," Ted said defensively.

"Something interesting."

"One word."

"What?"

“Time is not about how much you have, but how you use it.”

……

"Ah~~~" Ron screamed while holding the chicken leg, scaring the little wizard at the table behind him, and the spoon flew away.

Jerry beat his chest so hard that he choked on his cheese.

Thanks to Ted's quick hands and eyes, he used the Five Poison Palm to save Jerry.

Jerry grabbed Ron without even catching his breath and said, "What are you crazy about? You almost sent me away!"

Neville glanced at the vegetable soup splattered all over his chest and nodded.

Ron put down the chicken leg with a frustrated look on his face. "I can't learn it! I can't learn it!"

"What can't you learn?" Harry asked.

Neville knew a little bit about it and asked tentatively, "Are you talking about meditation?" Ron nodded weakly.

Ted had already figured out a more reliable meditation method, so he handed it over to Hermione and the other friends.

Now Hermione always does a set of yoga before going to bed, then washes up, lies on the bed and meditates to fall asleep, and the quality of sleep is excellent. She is energetic and full of energy every day, and even spells are more handy.

The other friends have also gained something, except Ron. I don’t know if it’s because of his bad mental state or psychological problems, he hasn’t got started yet.

Ron sniffed and said sadly, "I'm so angry. I felt like I was meditating last night, but I was woken up by a strange noise! ​​I was startled when I heard it, and it took me a long time to realize that it was my snoring~~~"

"Hehehe~~~" The friends tried their best to hold back their laughter. After all, Ron's expression was like that now, and they couldn't rub salt into his wounds.

Ted could only comfort her, "Don't worry. You've been very anxious this year. Relax and let nature take its course. Pursuing things too much will only create obstacles."

Ted: I know you're in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry~
Ted makes good use of his time and goes to the Forbidden Forest to hunt two or three nights a week. He kills some dangerous or malicious magical creatures, gains some experience, and sees if he can get some good cards.

In about half a month, I gained an extra two thousand experience points.

There was not much gain in terms of cards, most of them were material cards and of low quality.

However, Ted killed an eight-eyed spider that ran out of its territory. That thing was of high level and high experience, and he could also harvest a large bottle of venom, which was very valuable. And it was not difficult for Ted.

The eight-eyed spider is classified as a magical creature of XXXXX level, and its danger level is on par with that of a fire dragon, and even more dangerous than a troll.

It’s not that they are more powerful. In fact, for a seventh-grader who graduates normally, as long as he doesn’t panic, dealing with an eight-eyed spider is not a problem.

The eight-eyed spider has magic resistance, but not as good as the giant monster, and even less than the fire dragon. It is huge, but not very tanky. It has strong lethality, but not very fast...

The problem is that this thing has a high IQ and is extremely good at camouflaging raids!

Not to mention their high IQ, some eight-eyed spiders can even learn to speak, not to mention setting traps or sneak attacks.

They also have a natural camouflage ability. In some complex terrains, such as forests, cliffs, and mountains, they have natural camouflage colors and are very difficult to detect.

Often when their prey discovers them, they are caught and injected with venom.

That’s right, the eight-eyed spider’s way of eating is also very cruel. It will tie up people and inject venom into them, then turn the muscles and internal organs into liquid and suck them.

Moreover, these things live in groups, with dozens or even hundreds of them at any time!
In the wild, if a wizard is targeted by an eight-eyed spider, it all depends on luck.

Even the dark wizards who come to the Forbidden Forest to poach rarely bother with the eight-eyed spiders, even though their venom is very valuable and their eyeballs are also a magical material.

But the hairs on the body of the eight-eyed spider have a strong ability to sense air circulation, and even the Disillusionment Charm can hardly evade its perception. So sneak attacks on the eight-eyed spider are almost impossible.

Although the benefits are not small, the danger is higher and the difficulty is greater, so poachers are reluctant to get close.

But Ted is different!
Unless other wizards use a detection spell every ten seconds or so, it is very easy for them to be ambushed.

But Ted's psion has a natural ability to sense nearby mental entities.

If it was a small insect, it would be fine because its mental activity is very low and it would not be noticed. But the eight-eyed spider is too smart and it is conspicuous.

That night, the eight-eyed spider, who might have been driven out because of a dispute over status, hid silently in the tree and was about to launch a sneak attack on Ted.

But Ted sensed it from more than ten meters away - normally the eight-eyed spider would not be vulnerable to sneak attacks, but this time it was different, and Ted simply used the same trick against it.

The harvest included a two-pint bottle of eight-eyed spider venom, eight eyeballs, and even a few large spider legs.

Maybe this thing can be used to try a magical dish!

Roasted eight-eyed spider legs or something, the protein is fifty times that of beef~
……

May is here and new knowledge has arrived.

"Ding~ Talent [Otherworldly Knowledge (Gold)] is triggered, and [Love and Monster Encyclopedia (Green)] is discovered."

[Love and Monsters Illustrated Book (Green)] records the information of strange creatures that have mutated in a strange apocalypse. It costs 200 experience points to redeem it.

"Love and Monsters Illustrated Book? What a strange name." This time, Ted didn't know the source of the knowledge.

But it didn't look dangerous. After all, it was only green-quality knowledge. It was not like [Taoist Knowledge (Red)], where the spiritual world watched a Taoist priest for half his life, which took Ted several days to recover.

And the name is about love or something, so there shouldn’t be any harm, right?

Changed!
