Obscure at Hogwarts

Wizards have very old-fashioned ideas. Compared with the rapid changes in the Muggle world, they often give Louis the feeling of not keeping up with the trends of the times.

For example, when looking at the broomsticks that wizards ride on, Louis feels sad about his balls.

However, Galen, who experienced flying on a broom for the first time, had a great time. He saw Louis walking into the Quidditch pitch from a distance, slowly controlling the broom to fly over, and said hello:

"Hi, Louis! You're finally here!"

"uh-huh."

Louis smiled and said, "It looks like you guys had a lot of fun."

"That's right!"

Galen nodded happily and said: "I have been looking forward to the flying lessons at Hogwarts for a long time. I didn't expect that George and Fred's brothers would allow me to experience the feeling of flying in advance. It's awesome!"

"So do you think it's difficult to fly on a broomstick?" Louis asked curiously.

"A bit..."

Galen subconsciously wanted to scratch the back of his head, and then...

"Oh!"

Unable to maintain his balance, he suddenly fell off the broom.

Fortunately, the Quidditch pitch was surrounded by soft grass and the center was relatively soft sand. Galen, who was experiencing flying on a sweeper for the first time, did not fly high, so he was not injured despite his thick skin.

While Galen was casually dusting off his body, the two brothers George and Fred, who were originally flying around the stadium, flew not far in front of Louis at a speed of 15 miles, and said with a smile:

"Hey Louie, want to try flying?"

"Charlie has prepared a broom for each of us. George and I will go find Charlie now and let him teach you how to fly on a broom!"

He had no objection to the twins' proposal. Louis smiled and nodded, and immediately saw the two of them flying to the center of the Quidditch pitch, calling Charlie over who was rehearsing game tactics with his teammates.

As captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, Charlie's flying skills are obviously good.

The broom he rode was obviously much more advanced than George and Fred's broom. After flying to Louis at an extremely fast speed, he used a gorgeous and elegant tail flick to face Louis and smiled:

"Louis, long time no see. How do you feel at Hogwarts?"

"Very good, Charlie."

He has a good relationship with the Weasley family. Louis smiled familiarly and said, "I heard from George and Fred that you specially prepared brooms for us. It's really troublesome for you."

"No trouble!"

Charlie glanced back with his peripheral vision and looked at George with a helpless expression. The sight of Fred riding a broom and playing in mid-air said with a headache:

"I just hope those two idiots George and Fred don't cause you any trouble!"

With that said, Charlie asked George to go get the broom prepared for Louis, and patiently explained to him:

"Louis, this must be your first time flying on a broomstick. Remember not to be afraid. I will be watching you. You will not be in any danger."

"You only need to ride on the broom like me, push your legs slowly and hard, and you can easily fly into the sky on the broom."

"After flying, you need to hold your broom tightly. If you lean backwards slightly, the broom will rise. If you lean forward slightly, the broom will descend. You need to use your hands to adjust the direction of the broom's flight. Do you understand what I mean? ?”

Sounds a bit like a controller-controlled flying game?

Louis nodded seriously and stretched out his hand to touch the broomstick. He felt that it was a little smooth but not soft.

Then, when Louis got on the broom and started flying at low altitude under Charlie's guidance, he tried to use magic to analyze the overall structure of the broom...

shocked!

Although Charlie is the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, the brooms he prepares for Louis and others cannot be high-end products. From the appearance, they look like products from the Sideswipe series that have been eliminated long ago.

However, when Louis used magic to analyze the internal structure of the broom, he was surprised that there were many wonderful magic spells permanently embedded in the seemingly ordinary broom.

For example, the "Cushion Charm" is used to improve the overall comfort of the broom and prevent male wizards from suffering from the pain of having balls when riding on it.

Another example is the "acceleration spell", which is like the accelerator of every broomstick, used to accelerate flight, allowing wizards to use the amount of magic output to decide how deeply to step on the accelerator.

In the end, Louis concluded that the true secret of every broomstick is actually hidden in the permanent spells stored inside it.

Those permanent spells are like pieces of a puzzle, forming the internal structure of every broomstick.

The appearance of the broom is secondary.

Just like using the internal parts of a van, the modified Lamborghini can still be driven, but it is completely unable to compare with the real sports car in terms of performance.

In Louis' view, as long as he can master the internal structure of the broomstick, he can completely change the appearance of the broomstick at will, turning it into a flying sword, missile, hot wheel, etc.

Therefore, when Charlie was sure that Louis had basically mastered the method of flying on a broom, he said hello and continued to accompany the team members to practice game tactics.Louis, who was slowly flying around the stadium, was not obsessed with flying like the twins and Galen. Instead, he carefully analyzed the internal structure of the broom.

"Well... the permanent principle of the cushion charm is not difficult. Maybe during the holidays, I can try to modify the family car to make it more comfortable for everyone."

"Huh? Permanent principles such as acceleration spells and direction spells have been encrypted? Maybe this kind of encryption spell is a method used by wizards to protect property rights! It is not difficult to crack, some are like the password of a safe Lock, I just need to control the magic power first like this, then like this, then like this..."

"OK! The secret was solved successfully!"

"Yes... this acceleration spell is quite practical. I can analyze its secrets in depth and use it in conjunction with my Wu Kong Technique. This will speed up my flying speed when using Wu Kong Technique."

After simply analyzing the internal structure of this Sweep series broom, Louis benefited a lot from the analysis process.

If possible, Louis really wanted to order the latest model of the Nimbus series broom at this time, and think about the differences between the new broom and the old one.

pity...

Ugh!

I have no money ability!

Nowadays, a Nimbus series broom costs at least 50 gold galleons. Louis is not like the "horse manure" in the HP movie. He comes from a pure-blood family with a mine and wants to buy a Nimbus series broom. Analytical research is completely a luxury.

As for how to earn Galleons through formal channels...

Louis does.

However, just when Louis was seriously thinking about whether the way to become "well-off" was feasible, the sound of quarrels coming from the Quidditch stadium suddenly caught his attention.

Immediately, I saw that the people arguing with Charlie, the twins and others were the Slytherin Quidditch players who preferred grassland colors, and the buck-toothed boy among them was actually holding a Nimbus series broom. when...

Louis couldn't help but thought happily:

"I have a broom!"
