#209 - Explore the Forbidden Forest
"So, after the disc measures the total blood volume and the dropper measures a certain amount of magic power, connecting them allows the magic program I set up to calculate Vivian's magic power value," Anduin explained to everyone.
"Then what do you mean by 168 'kè'?" Velen was quite interested in the instrument Anduin mentioned and quickly asked.
"'Kè' is the unit I use to denote magic power, with the magic power consumed by casting one Lumos spell being one 'kè'. That means Vivian, you only have enough magic power to cast Lumos 168 times in a row."
"Then I'm pretty good, right?" Vivian said with some pride upon hearing this.
"You're already in fourth year, and this magic power reserve is only at the level of a third-year student. What's there to be proud of?" Anduin said with a straight face.
Hearing this, Vivian couldn't help but pout, "What can I do? I can't make it grow on its own."
"That's why you need to strengthen your training." Anduin, ignoring Vivian's unwilling expression, looked at the others, "You too."
Subsequently, Anduin used the same method to test the others, and after digitizing their magic power values, everything became much clearer.
Velen, 382 kè, had the highest value among them, and he was expected to break the 400 kè standard before seventh year.
Charles, 257 kè, not bad.
Bill, 143 kè, with more training, he might surpass Vivian.
Ibu, 118 kè, physical weakness still has some impact.
After checking everyone's magic power values, Anduin had a clear understanding in his mind. Velen had the highest value, but that was because he was older, so this performance was normal.
Charles's increase was significant, much higher than his vague measurement from last year. It seems that after the third year, young wizards will experience a period of magic power growth.
Ibu's level is actually normal, considering he's only in second year, but judging from Bill's value, his potential is the strongest. If trained properly, he might even have a chance to surpass Charles in two years.
Moreover, with the new measuring instrument, subsequent training experiments can be carried out more smoothly. The efficiency of magic power increase for each age's magic power growth curve, physical training, magic power sensitivity training, willpower training, energy intake, and other projects can also be observed through grouped experiments.
Afterwards, Anduin looked at his previously measured magic power value, 418 kè.
It seems that eating magical creature meat is quite effective.
Then Anduin looked at everyone with the eyes of a test subject, and then glanced at Vivian with emphasis, and had a plan for how to group the experiments.
Velen is close to adulthood, and laying the foundation has no obvious effect. Let him do more combat tactics training.
As for the grouped experiments.
After school starts, he plans to have Ibu undergo independent physical training, Bill will specialize in sensitivity training, and Charles will stand and temper his will.
As for Vivian, since she's afraid of hardship, then she'll eat like crazy!
I want to see how much of an impact eating magical creature meat every day has on magic power increase!
Then rotate a project every month, and then conduct multi-project cross-training. This way, he should be able to find the pattern.
Thinking of this, Anduin couldn't help but chuckle coldly, causing goosebumps to rise on everyone around him.
……
Hogwarts welcomed another new school year. For Anduin, this year was an ordinary year, but for other young wizards, this summer was too exciting.
It was clear from the entrance ceremony that almost everyone, whether old students or new students, focused their attention on Anduin.
This boy, who usually had very little presence in the school and was even nicknamed the Slytherin Ghost, had now become a combat hero, which made more people remember Anduin's name.
This was especially true for the students in Slytherin, especially those pure-blood wizards from before.
Originally, they were being extorted by Anduin and were trying to figure out how to get rid of him. But now, this kid has suddenly become a hero, which is like a dream, and a desperate nightmare at that.
However, Anduin completely ignored the strange gazes of others. His thoughts were all immersed in his own research, and he treated others with an indifferent attitude.
Even when he returned to the common room, he went straight back to his dormitory to tinker with his own things. The other wizards in his academy didn't even have a chance to strike up a conversation.
Two months later, weekend, outskirts of the Forbidden Forest.
Anduin, fully armed, began to advance towards the depths of the Forbidden Forest. This was his first time trying to go deep into the Forbidden Forest. Usually, he would only wander around the periphery, helping Hagrid feed the magical creature colonies he raised.
The reason he appeared here today was that Hagrid complained to him that he had discovered that many magical creatures had been brutally killed while patrolling the Forbidden Forest, and even the magical creature colonies raised by the school had been affected.
A Tarbos Warthog and a Re'em bull were brutally dismembered, and a Hippogriff was also seriously injured, and the wounds on its body didn't look like those of a predator.
This made Professor Kettleburn and Hagrid very worried, so Hagrid had been stepping up patrols recently.
Originally, this had nothing to do with Anduin, but Tarbos Warthog and Re'em bull were his important food source. He spent most of his time in the past two years of magical creature class helping Professor Kettleburn raise these two animals.
He had finally raised them to be fat and strong, and before he could even get his hands on them, someone was stealing food from his mouth. How could he tolerate this?
Moreover, he was really worried about Hagrid facing this unknown threat alone, so he decided to investigate it himself.
By the way, he could also test his research results during this period, including the upgraded alchemy equipment and the newly developed spells.
"It should be here. The Hippogriff was attacked here last time. There is still blood on the ground, so let's start here." Anduin squatted down and stretched out his finger, sticking some dark red soil from the ground to check.
After he patted the soil off his hands, he raised his hand and pinched the monocle on his right eye.
Subsequently, another scene appeared in his vision. The places on the ground with bloodstains kept flashing with pale red light.
Anduin pulled out his wand and chanted a spell at the bloodstains. After casting the spell, more mottled light spots appeared around the bloodstains in his vision, and even colored light mist floated in the air above the bloodstains.
