Hogwarts Card System.

Chapter 57: Social Death Banquet
After talking about levels, let’s talk about attributes.

The average score for an average adult is 5 points

The lower grade students in the school probably only have 3 to 4 points in strength, physical fitness and agility.

In terms of intelligence, it fluctuates between 4 and 6 points.

For example, Hermione is naturally smart, with 7 points!
You know, she is only 12 years old! She will still grow up!

Then there is the skill level.

The level at which one can achieve excellence in the fifth-grade OWLs exam is level 3.

If you can get excellent results in the NEWT exam after graduating from grade seven, you will reach level 4.

Lv8 is called Master.

For example, Professor Flitwick's spells, Snape's potions and dark magic.

The next level up, lv9, is probably the pinnacle of a normal wizard.

But if you want to become a legend, there is also a lv9+ above!

Only Dumbledore's Transfiguration and Voldemort's Dark Magic could reach this level.

Ted even suspected that Nicolas Flamel's alchemy was only level 9.

Below the skill is magic.

The level of magic depends on the wizard's own mastery.

Generally speaking, similar magic is subject to skill restrictions, but there are also some that can break through the restrictions.

For example, Lockhart's Oblivion Charm had definitely reached level 8, so much so that so many excellent wizards had their personal experiences stolen by him without them noticing.

But all his other spells were "wasted" because of this, the sacrifice was huge, and he became completely useless.

Maybe it's because he "specialized" in the Oblivion spell, so that other spells were completely downgraded?

Now Ted is certain that the Big Four must have all passed the level 20 barrier, which is why they came together to establish this thousand-year-old magic school.

When they enter the realm of legend, the magic they study is no longer ordinary magic of this spell or that spell, but a more essential and profound "path". What it is specifically is unknown.

Ravenclaw has three main research directions.

The first one is the study of magic words.

Hogwarts was founded around 990 AD, and by that time Ravenclaw had already become a legend.

But before she was promoted to Legend, her main research direction was ancient magic runes and "wishing magic".

At that time, ancient magic writing was still a relatively common magical language.

It’s like after Emperor Qin Shi Huang unified the world and standardized the writing system and the wheel gauge, he invented “small seal script”, but “large seal script” must have been in circulation at that time.

Although the mainstream is small seal script, scholars who have some knowledge of it will know large seal script.

Ancient magic writing was equivalent to the "Great Seal Script" at that time.

However, nowadays, those who can recognize Xiaozhuan are already authoritative experts in the relevant field, and even fewer people know Dazhuan.

Just like in today’s magic world, studying ancient magic runes is like reading pictures.

Forget about using it to cast spells. After several years of research, the result was a simplified version of the Luminescent Spell, and no one was willing to study it anymore.

But the Ravenclaws at that time were studying ancient runes, and even left behind a complete set of related materials and research notes.

This thing is the greatest treasure for Ted now!

Ted even received the system prompt "+lv1 Ancient Magic Rune" because he "photocopied" a complete set of teaching materials she left behind!
This is a direct introduction to magic literature!

After delving deeper into the study of ancient magic and truly coming into contact with the essence of the mystery, Ms. Ravenclaw, who is probably considered a master-level wizard, came into contact with the "wishing technique" in an adventure!
To be more precise, it should be called "wish magic".

In essence, all the magic performed by wizards is a wish-granting technique!
But due to various restrictions, wizards cannot cast magic as they wish.

When Ravenclaw studied some materials left over from before the Common Era, he discovered that the earliest wizards had no spells, no wands, and not even magic.

They don't have to be so particular about casting spells, their magic will achieve what they want!

The protagonists in many fairy tales are always praying, such as "Come spring soon" and "May the flowers bloom soon", and their wishes always come true. This is probably a similar ability.

However, due to the role of the subconscious, there are usually limitations. For example, at 12 o'clock, the magic will fail and she will turn back into the dusty girl. It was also by studying the art of wishing that Ravenclaw entered the realm of legend.

In fact, the core mechanism of Hogwarts Castle is the wishing technique, which is the subconscious common wish of countless wizards who study here.

The Room of Requirement was built by Ravenclaw to collect magic power and respond to the wishes of students and teachers.

It can realize many magical functions of the castle, which is why this room can meet all requests - it connects various parts of the castle.

It is the second core of the castle - the first being the principal's office.

The Room of Requirement controls the applications and is considered the "software" of the castle, while the Principal's Office controls the authority and is considered the "backend" of the castle.

And what Ms. Ravenclaw studied in the last few years of her life was a subject that went deep into the soul.

She was severely traumatized by this and unfortunately passed away.

In her journal, she described her research as follows:

"How do human thoughts come into being? Where do they come from? Can they be separated and exist independently? Where do humans come from?!"

Ravenclaw had apparently made some progress in his research on thoughts.

In her final moments, she separated herself from her longing for her daughter and left it behind, which led to what happened before.

Ms. Ravenclaw has also conducted in-depth research on the question of "where do people come from".

Ted even saw some extremely terrifying clues in her diary - Helena Ravenclaw, Ms. Ravenclaw's biological daughter, might not have a father!

She is the life "created" by Ms. Ravenclaw in her own body!

That is the dual application of prayer magic and soul magic, a magic that creates life...

After suddenly having such a guess, Ted even felt a chill in his head.

This kind of research should be classified as taboo, right?
Ravenclaw ladies are naturally extremely intelligent, and are known for their wisdom even among the Big Four.

But it is particularly scary when smart people get stuck in a rut. This is how countless Frankenstein monsters came about.

It took Ted a long time to let go of this complicated emotion. No matter what, only rune magic was suitable for him now or in a year or two, so it was better not to think too much about it.

……

"Ted, what's wrong with you? You've been in a hurry and in a trance these two days?" Jerry and Ron looked at Ted worriedly.

Ted withdrew his thoughts and decided to forget about Ms. Ravenclaw's legacy for the time being and live under his crotch~
"Nothing, I just haven't been getting enough sleep lately. By the way, the day after tomorrow is Christmas, and I have prepared gifts for you." Ted said with a smile.

"Don't worry! You'll get some!" Ron patted Ted's shoulder heavily - he hoped Ted would like the big box of candy his mother made.

Poor young people really can’t afford to get hurt!
Although most of his attention was attracted by the Ravenclaw ladies in the past two days, Ted still prepared gifts for his friends. For this purpose, Ansu flew back and forth again and again and was almost exhausted.

Christmas came, Ted woke up and looked out the window, but unfortunately there was no snow.

Although the Scottish Highlands are relatively far to the north, it is still not cold enough compared to the Northeast, my hometown in my previous life.

It is normal not to snow on Christmas, although it does lack some atmosphere.

Just as Ted was about to get out of bed to see if he had received any gifts, he received a system notification:

"Ding~ Trigger the festival mission:

【Swear to the Banquet (Green)】

As your first Christmas at Hogwarts, are you going to spend it in such a dull way? No way? No way? No way? Get started~
Objective: Put on a Santa hat, fake beard, carry a large package, go around the four public lounges, and show off their Christmas snacks.

Reward: 250 experience points, card [Chasing Snowball (Green)].

Some people are alive, but they are already dead~"

"You're still coming?!"

Isn't Halloween fun enough? You're giving your classmates PTSD!
He even pretended to be Santa Claus and went to the public lounge to get free food and drinks. Is this a party of death? This is a party of social death!

You're still giving me 250 experience points, are you mocking me?!
System: Just tell me whether you want to go or not?

Ted: Where's the Santa hat and beard?

Thanks to book friend "Wang Ruimeng" for the reward of 255!

Thank you, Da Mengzi~
