Chapter 21 - The Essence Of Magic

After [Rolling Forward] took effect, not to mention the surrounding onlookers, even Chris himself was "stunned" by his own results!

Although he estimated that his magic effect might be a bit amazing, he only thought that at most there would be a change in the range of the spell, maybe a funny scene would appear, with several students somersaulting along with the glass ball, and even Professor Flitwick might be unfortunately caught—but no matter what, he never thought that a sonic boom would occur, such a bizarre phenomenon...

Wait... Chris suddenly realized a problem—a simple [Rolling Forward] was already like this, so does that mean that he only needs to use ordinary spells in any magical battle to achieve the effect of other wizards using dark magic?!

Looking at the big hole in the wall, Chris fell into deep thought...

Professor Flitwick looked at Chris, who was lost in thought, and he was a little doubtful about life! What kind of spell is this? What kind of reaction is this? Was the wall behind him secretly replaced with soft black truffle cake?

How could anyone use [Rolling Forward] to produce the effect of a wind blade? No, even ordinary wind blades are not as good as this, they at most cut off the wall skin, but this directly blew up the entire stone wall! This is like the effect of an Explosion Charm! And it's a directional Explosion Charm!

Flitwick touched the cold sweat on his head—instantly his face turned ashen—where's my hair!!!! The hair on the top of his head was already so sparse that you could see the scalp, but now there wasn't even a single strand left.

Professor Flitwick had completely become a Mediterranean!

Chris was very embarrassed, he really wanted to shout loudly; Professor! My dear teacher, I didn't know this thing would be so powerful!

"Gryffindor loses fifty points!!!" Professor Flitwick's voice could almost break through the ceiling.

After speaking, the professor stormed out of the classroom, and then the little lions left the classroom one after another. Hermione and Chris stood facing each other in the empty classroom.

Hermione couldn't help but ask: "You weren't pretending before, were you?"

"Of course not! I only released my first spell two weeks ago, and I learned the spell release method from Snape." Chris said aggrievedly.

"Then how do you explain your spell?" Hermione was a little confused.

"Maybe we can ask Old Bat!" Chris said, at this moment, the nickname Old Bat has become a nickname that this year's little wizards hang on their lips.

Although Chris has a lot of magical knowledge, his magical practice is indeed very little.

Hermione took out her wand and pointed it at the glass ball and said: [Rolling Forward] !

The glass bead was like a little mouse, slowly rolling forward, its obedient appearance made Chris feel ashamed.

Many older students heard about this from the first-year little wizards at this time, and several people ran into the classroom to watch Chris's big hole.

Chris pulled Hermione and quickly left the classroom. Just after he left, a young man with dead fish eyes walked in—it was Percy, the Gryffindor prefect.

Looking at the hole in the wall and the "beheaded" podium, Percy's face immediately turned liver-colored—I just want to be a prefect in peace and stability, and then get into the Ministry of Magic in the future, why is it so difficult for me?

Percy took out his wand and waved it at the podium and shouted: [Reparo] !

Very uncooperative—the upper half of the podium remained in place—it didn't move at all!

Percy was immediately desperate: Only items that have been damaged to a certain extent cannot be repaired with this spell. The Repair Charm can only be applied to some broken items, but unfortunately Chris's "Spiral Glass Marble" has obviously completely pulverized some things in the middle. This level of injury cannot be recovered with a simple Repair Charm.

Percy's face became even more ugly, he stared at the wall with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Chris, you forced me!" Percy muttered to himself, then quickly left the classroom.

================================

At this moment, Chris, who was a little confused, really wanted to ask Dumbledore to clear up his confusion. In the entire Hogwarts, the wizard with the highest magical attainments is Mr. Wizard King—but unfortunately Dumbledore is not familiar with him!

Chris was also very puzzled. Although BBQ Dumbledore came, he seemed to be deliberately avoiding him, neither leaving time for private communication nor showing any signs of in-depth contact.

So Chris and Hermione went to Snape's office together.

Snape only arranges one class for each grade, five compulsory courses for five grades plus two elective courses for two grades—I have to say, Snape's free time is definitely the most in the entire school, even Hagrid can't compare.

"What are you here for?" Snape was just about to go out, the three of them met in the corridor, Hermione's hand suddenly couldn't help but grab Chris's arm.

"I have a question I want to ask you, Professor Snape." Chris said.

"Last time you told me that you are very familiar with the Muggle world, can you really introduce some people?" Snape didn't answer, but started another topic.

Chris crooked his mouth—this is obviously telling Chris: If you want me to serve you, you have to pay the price!

"Mr. Snape! I have written to my parents, and they are acquiring and trying to privatize the Roslin Institute—it is still a government-owned institution."

The Roslin Biological Research Institute, this name is extremely unfamiliar—outsiders don't know what this thing is—it is a government research institution located in Roslin, Midlothian, Scotland, UK, sponsored by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC). If the timeline is normal, this research institute will create the world's first cloned animal, Dolly the sheep, in the next 5 years!

"Roslin Institute?" Snape secretly noted the name. Seeing the result he wanted, Snape walked back to the office and led Chris and Hermione to his room.

"I'm here mainly because I have some doubts about the release of magic." Chris told Snape completely what had just happened, including Professor Flitwick's new bald head and the broken hole.

After Chris finished speaking, he added: "It's very strange, I must tell you, so far I have only successfully released magic twice, once was the Cleaning Charm, and once was the Rolling Forward Charm. It's not that I don't want to control them, but that I can't control them at all!"

Snape pondered and asked: "When you released the magic just now, did you feel the anger spreading?"

"Of course!" Hermione said quickly: "Just now Chris's expression couldn't wait to punch Professor Flitwick into the sky!"

Snape smiled, but his expression instantly became a little shocked, and said solemnly: "Chris, I didn't expect you to grow so fast. Your question has touched the essence of magic!"

"The essence of magic?" Chris and Hermione repeated the word at the same time.
