Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

Vol 6 Chapter 18: Marauder's Map Secrets

The latest website: The bell rang for the end of get out of class.

The little wizards who had just finished the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, chatting excitedly, left the staff lounge together.

"Did you see how I took down that female ghost?" Seamus shouted.

"And that hand!" Dean said, waving his hand.

"And that big spider!"

"And my mummy!"

"I don't understand why Professor Lupin is afraid of crystal balls?" Lavender said thoughtfully, but didn't care.

"This is the best Defence Against the Dark Arts class we've ever had, isn't it?" Ron said excitedly as they walked back to the classroom to get their bags.

"He is indeed a very good teacher," Clark said with rare approval. "Unfortunately, I actually wish I had a chance to deal with that Boggart—"

"Oh my God, Clark, I feel like you're showing off when you say that," said Ron, grinning. "What do you think it's going to be in front of you? Failing the test? Or not getting one? Full marks, only nine points for homework?"

They had a lively conversation, and only Harry felt sullen.

Professor Lupin deliberately did not let him deal with Boggart, why? Is it because he saw himself fainting on the train and thought he had no ability? Did he think he would faint again?

Harry fell into self-doubt, and Clark sensed it and patted him on the shoulder.

"What's the matter, Harry?"

"It's alright," Harry looked at the excellent Clark and shook his head subconsciously, "I just feel strange. Professor Lupin gave me five points, but I didn't do anything."

"Maybe it's because you answered his question correctly when you first started the class." Ron said lightly, "Clarke and Hermione also got extra points, okay, don't think about it, I'll go back to rest later. Go to the room, copy your homework for me..."

A group of people giggled and walked down the stairs.

Soon, with the word of mouth of these little wizards, this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts became a favorite course for most people.

Professor Lupin's humor and amiability made the little wizards both admire and close to him.

With the exception of Draco Malfoy, he was often sneaking bad words about Professor Lupin with his fellow Slytherins.

"Look what his robes are like," Malfoy said deliberately so that everyone could hear him as Professor Lupin passed by. "He's dressed like our house-elf."

But apart from them, no one cared that Professor Lupin's robes were patched and worn badly.

And his next few classes were just as lively and interesting as the first one.

After learning Boggart, they learned the red hat, an ugly little thing like a goblin that likes to lurk in places where blood once bleed, such as castle dungeons, abandoned battlefield tunnels, waiting for a big The stick attacks the lost.

After the red hats, they began to learn about the kabbah, a reptile that lived in the water, looking like a monkey with scales and webbed hands, ready to strangle ordinary people wading by in their ponds.

Faced with these strange black magic creatures, even Clark felt a lot to gain.

In addition, with the help of the Time Transformer, several other electives that he and Hermione have chosen are also getting better.

Whether it's arithmetic, ancient runes, or Muggle studies, they are all masters of learning, and have won praise from several professors.

Only the divination class, the class in the suffocating tower classroom, gave Hermione a lot of headaches.

They had to bite the bullet and decipher all kinds of strange shapes and symbols in that dull, sweet air, and force themselves to ignore Professor Trelawney's convoluted words.

In addition to these classes, after Clark's advice, Hagrid really took the class on protecting magical creatures.

After earnestly consulting Harry and other students for their opinions, he regrouped and worked hard to overcome his unique taste, and first brought them to know the "fairy" - a very beautiful little creature.

This made the little wizards temporarily forget the exciting first lesson.

Then he brought the students to know all kinds of peculiar and magical creatures such as the Ball Escape Bird, the Moon Chi Beast, and the Fire Ash Snake, which successfully restored his image among the students.

In this way, the time came to October in a fulfilling study. After more than a month of study, after successfully straightening things out, Clark also began to prepare his next plan.

This evening, after dinner and returning to the common room, Clark found George and Fred.

The two were preparing an advertising rental plan for businesses in Hogsmeade Village, and Clark was not polite, and borrowed the Marauder's map directly from them.

As the twins' cousin, and their boss and partner, the two revealed their little secret to Clark when they went to Egypt during the summer vacation of their second year.

So for Clark's request, the Weasley twins readily agreed.

"We thought you'd never borrow this thing." George Weasley winked at Clark.

"Looks like our darling Clark is going on an adventure." Fred exaggeratedly pulled something out of his cloak and put it on the table.

It was a large square piece of parchment, the edges of which were badly frayed and looked like they had been used a lot, but there was nothing on the paper.

"It just looks like a plain old parchment," George said. "But it's the treasure we got from Filch at the risk of being gutted."

"We reckon Filch never figured out how to use it," Fred said with a smug smile, "but this little darling taught us more than all the teachers in the school."

"Yes, yes!" George drew his wand and tapped the blank parchment. "I solemnly swear that I will not do good things."

As the incantation was uttered, in an instant, thin lines of ink spread like cobwebs from where the tip of George's wand touched, as if an invisible pen was sketching on it.

These ink lines are connected, criss-cross, extending to every corner of the parchment.

Then the words appeared on the top of the parchment, in large green swashes:

Moonface, Wormtail, Bigfoot and Prong

Introducing the gentlemen who help magic pranksters - Marauder's Map!

Gu Ya

"How is it? It's amazing, isn't it?" Fred looked at Clark and saw a surprised expression on his face.

This is indeed very magical. Although Clark has already learned about it from the original book, he is still very surprised when he actually sees the real thing.

Because on this Marauder's map, all the details of Hogwarts Castle and grounds are drawn.

Yes, all the details!

Even everyone who is living in this castle at the moment.

You can clearly see that on that map, there are many small black dots with markers, moving in the castle, and each small black dot is marked with a name in very small font.

Clark leaned over in amazement. A marked black dot in the upper left corner showed that Professor Dumbledore was pacing the study; Filch's cat, Mrs. Norris, the administrator, was patrolling the third floor; Peeves, a prankster Currently bouncing around in the prize showroom.

The only trouble, perhaps, is that this map doesn't have names to search for credit. If you want to find someone, you have to widen your eyes and look for a long time on the map.

In addition, even if Hogwarts Castle is a complex three-dimensional building, you can click on the floor symbol on the side of the map with a magic wand to display the detailed floor plan of each floor of the castle, just like using Gothe map is no different.

This is so convenient!

Clark was secretly surprised by the strength of the troublesome quartet, and at the same time he felt very strange.

The content of this map is detailed, and it can also be said that because Harry's father and the others were naughty and often wandering around at night, they were extremely familiar with the terrain of Hogwarts.

But it can monitor the entire Hogwarts and update the information on it in real time, which is a bit unreasonable.

You know, according to Clark's guess, this kind of ability is generally only possessed by the headmaster of Hogwarts, and even the deans of the four major colleges do not have this kind of authority.

So how does this Marauder Map achieve this function?

In addition, this Marauder's map can also provide feedback on the movements of the outside world. In the original book, Snape who seized this map was mocked by the map.

This shows that this map is an alchemical item similar to the Sorting Hat that incorporates the creator's thoughts.

From these points alone, the Marauder's map is far from being produced by a few young wizards who have not yet graduated.

Clark admits that Harry and his father are very good, but based on the knowledge he currently has, to make such a map, he needs extremely advanced spells, transfiguration, ancient magic literature and names. Knowledge of magic.

These theoretical knowledges are only the foundation. The most important point is that they must be able to sneak into the Hogwarts authority system, obtain information about Hogwarts Castle, and not be discovered by Dumbledore Headmaster.

If Sirius and a few people really have such ability, can fully grasp this knowledge, and use it flexibly to bring forth new ideas, it is impossible for them to be unknown and end up like this.

Unless, they're just the discoverers of the Marauder's Map, not the inventors.

Clark took the Marauder's Map in his hand, and didn't intend to go any further. Anyway, after he asked Sirius Black, he would know all about it.

"Thanks, I'll return this to you when I'm done using it." Clark stood up.

"No, let's take it as a Christmas present we gave you in advance." George said with a smile, "Last year, we made a lot of money selling magic cards for you, and I haven't had time to thank you."

"That's right, although I really don't want to give it to you, but since you said it, let's take it," Fred said. "After all, we have already memorized the route above."

"By the way, I'll give you one last piece of advice, remember to remove the traces after use-"

"—Otherwise, others can see it." George and Fred warned in unison.

"Just tap it again with the wand and say, 'The prank is over!' and it'll be a blank sheet of paper again."

After the two told them, they turned their heads and went back to their work, as if they hadn't spoken to Clark at all.

Clark smiled, put away the Marauder's map, turned to find Harry again, and borrowed the Invisibility Cloak from him on the pretext of wanting to visit the library at night.

With everything in place, when it was late and there was no one in the lounge, he secretly got up by himself and passed the portrait of Mrs. Fatty.

The clouds were so thick tonight that there was not even a trace of moonlight to be seen.

The entire Hogwarts Castle was silent, and Clark carefully walked down the dark corridor, and soon came to the eighth floor.

He patrolled here for a long time, and according to his fairly clear memory, he soon found the place described in the original book, that is, in front of the huge tapestry where the silly Barnabas was trying to teach the troll to dance ballet, on the opposite side of the tapestry. , is a white wall.

Clark took out the Marauder's map again, and after confirming again that no one was around, did he put away the invisibility cloak. Under the gaze of the troll picture, he calmed down and said in his mind:

"I need a room to hide things."

"I need a room to hide things."

"I need a room to hide things."

On one side, turn back from the window at one end of the white wall, walk to the man-high vase at the other end, and turn back.

In this way, when he turned around for the third time, on the white wall, magical lines and patterns gradually emerged, which together outlined a smooth and shiny bronze door.

Clark put his hand on the copper handle and opened the door.

Then, what appeared in front of him was a huge, messy-looking room.

This place is really big. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is taller and wider than the Great Hall of Hogwarts. It is hard to imagine that there is such a palace just behind a wall. Huge room.

Only Hogwarts, the magical castle, can find such a place.

However, at this time, this huge palace was filled with all kinds of sundries. The items discarded by the Hogwarts students of all dynasties piled up into countless small hills, leaving only a few small hills. Roads are for people to pass through.

Clark walked on the path among these clutter. The bright beams of light cast from overhead merged with the eerie shadows around him, making it seem like a disorderly city with high walls and a twisted disorder, but there are many more. Out of a lot of mysterious magic atmosphere.

This is the Room of Requirement, a magical room that only appears when one really needs it.

And one of the powers of Hogwarts that Clark was looking for, the crown of Ravenclaw, happened to be hidden here by the former Voldemort.
