Chapter 021
The bad Potions class was finally over, and the little wizards of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff had a seven-inch homework.
Ivis and Hermione spent the rest of the day in the library doing homework.
After nightfall, after making sure that all his roommates were asleep, Ives got up quietly and changed into a black sportswear.
His goal is clear, the Room of Requirement.
The Room of Requirement, also known as the Room of Coming and Going. It can meet the needs of the users and become the room they need.
This room is located on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle opposite the tapestry where the troll beats Barnabas the fool. The method of entry is: concentrate on thinking about the required venue, and after walking through that section of wall three times, the entrance to the Room of Requirement will appear on the wall.
Already during the summer vacation, Ives had set his sights on the Room of Requirement. He urgently needs a place where he can practice magic at will and master some powerful attack magic.
For tonight’s night outing, he even learned in advance a magic that was only taught in sixth grade – the Disguise Charm.
Hogwarts Castle was shrouded in silence at night, with only a few candlelights flickering in the common room.
After casting a disillusionment spell on himself, Avis gently opened the door and walked out.
He walked carefully through the stairs. Fortunately, after nightfall, the stairs that liked to change their positions at will were much calmer, otherwise Ives would probably get lost.
When he carefully went down to the third floor, a figure carrying an oil lamp was walking up, which startled him.
Avis pressed against the wall nervously, slowing down his breathing.
The figure passed him by, it was Filch!
He was accompanied by his cat, Mrs. Norris.
Filch was hunched over, and his thin cheeks and protruding eyes made him look a little nervous. He whispered in a low voice:”You two brats of Gryffindor, don’t let me catch you, or I will let you taste my big baby.……”
Mrs. Norris followed him step by step, and when she passed by Ives, she suddenly stopped.
It sniffed the air vigorously, then looked up to where Ivis was.
Ives is very nervous now, afraid that he will be discovered.
In the end, Mrs. Norris just rubbed his shoes affectionately, and then followed her master again.
After the figure of the man and the cat disappeared from sight, Ives continued to set off towards his destination.
“Does Magical Creatures Affinity also work on animals? Ives didn’t understand why Mrs. Norris didn’t remind Filch even though she had already discovered him,”Or is it that Mrs. Norris has the blood of magical animals?””
……
The eighth floor of the castle.
Ives walked back and forth three times in front of the tapestry depicting a giant monster beating silly Barnabas with a club, thinking silently in his mind: I need a room to practice magic, I need a room to practice magic…
He A very smooth door suddenly appeared on the wall in front of him, and Ives pushed it open and walked in.
Behind the door is a large circular room, with several wooden dummies placed in the center, and candlesticks standing around it, illuminating the entire room.
There was also a row of old wooden bookshelves beside the wall. Ives leaned over and found hundreds of books on them, including”Duel Etiquette”.》、《Common spells, rai
sing hands” and so on.
There is also a round wool carpet next to the bookshelf for people to rest on. Although the layout here is very simple, it is enough for Avis’ use.
He looked around and exclaimed:”Incredible……”
Then he closed his eyes again and said silently in his heart: I need a place where I can brew potions. I need a place where I can brew potions…
There was no movement in the Room of Requirement. Ives was a little disappointed. It seemed that there was no movement in the Room of Requirement. The layout of the house cannot be changed.
After verifying this, Avis picked up his spirits and began to practice magic.
About two hours later, a wave of fatigue came over him, and he had to end today’s practice and prepare to leave the Room of Requirement.
As soon as Elvis left the Room of Requirement, his body was pinned down by two hands.
“Mr. Evans, can you tell us why you are wandering around the castle so late?”A hoarse voice came from behind.
Ives didn’t panic because he felt that the voice was very familiar. He asked tentatively:”George? Fred?”
When he finished asking, the two hands on his shoulders let go.
A palm patted his left shoulder, and the owner of the palm smiled and said:”Hey, Avis, how did you know it was ours? ?
Ives turned around and rolled his eyes,”Why are you two here?””
“Hehe,” Fred rubbed his hands and smiled flatteringly,”Avis, can you tell us, is the place you just came out of a secret passage in the castle?
Ives shook his head and said,”No, that’s the Room of Requirement.””
He briefly introduced the two of them.
“There is such a magical place in the castle?”George covered his mouth and exclaimed. He looked at his twin brother,”Fred, I feel like we spent two years in Hogwarts in vain. Fred nodded in agreement,”Yes, George.” I didn’t expect that we didn’t even know about such a magical place.”
“By the way, how did you squat down to me?”Aves is still curious about how the twins caught him. Could it be that they have been squatting on the eighth floor?
“This is it.” Fred took out a blank piece of parchment from his arms. He pulled Avis to his side and introduced,”This is the Marauder’s Map.”
George leaned over to the other side and continued,”It can display the names and locations of everyone in the castle.”
“Just like this,” Fred took out his wand and placed it on top of the Marauder’s Map,”I solemnly swear that I have evil intentions.”
Ink suddenly poured out of the blank parchment, and the large ball of ink gradually transformed into a map of Hogwarts Castle. Everyone’s names were marked on it, and there was a small row of footprints under each person’s name, showing their Current location
“The Marauder’s Map shows all the secret passages in the castle”
“But we found that your name suddenly disappeared on the eighth floor”
“We guess you must have entered a secret passage that was not discovered by the Marauder’s Map!”
“So we both decided to squat with you on the eighth floor”
“That’s right, how can there be a secret passage in Hogwarts Castle that we haven’t discovered.”George and Fred talked about the reasons for the matter in unison.
So that’s the case, Ives nodded clearly,”It seems that the Room of Requirement and the people in it will not be marked on the Marauder’s Map.”
“This should be.”The twins scratched their heads and accepted this explanation.
