Chapter 76
Chapter 76 Wandless Spellcasting and Ancient Magic Texts
Ulysses returned to the Slytherin cellar.
Today’s Blood Man Barrow is not in the corridor, and may have lost confidence in Ulysses.
Ulysses was not surprised. He called Pippi to help find the trace of Barrow, the blood man.
After hearing Ulysses’ request, Pepy Ghost was shaking with fright. Ulysses and the Blood Man Barrow are both unattractive to it. They usually have to walk around when they see it. Now let it face two natural enemies at once, and it almost fainted.
However, after seeing Ulysses’s “you figure it out” eyes, Pippi really had the guts to refuse his request, resisting grievances and fears, wandering around the castle quickly, and finally in a room. The blood man Barrow was found in the basement, and then he dared not neglect and flew back to report to Ulysses.
Ulysses smiled, followed Pepy Ghost, and stepped into the dark and gloomy basement.
The objects placed here are extremely old, the ceiling and the ground are covered with dust, and it looks like they are in disrepair.
A scarlet oil painting hung on the wall, in which a woman fell in a pool of blood, and a man stood beside her crying.
Barrow, the blood man, stood in front of the oil painting, his hollow eyes gloomy.
“Mr. Barrow.”
Ulysses spoke, and he suddenly felt that the scene was a bit familiar.
The illusory spiritual body of Barrow the Blood moved, his numb gaze turned to Ulysses, his tone without emotion:
“It’s you, what are you doing? How do you know I’m here?”
After he finished speaking, he saw the trembling Pippi, and sneered, “It turns out that there is Pippi leading the way…You are so courageous, Pippi…”
Pippi wailed in his heart, Ulysses stepped forward to block it, and said with a smile:
“Please also Mr. Barrow not to be angry with Pippi. I asked him to do it.”
“It’s pretty good to be able to subdue Pippi.”
The Blood Man Barrow said lightly, “What can I do for you?”
“I did your request, sir.”
Ulysses opened his mouth and said, unaffected by the sudden shock of the opponent, “I opened the smoke ball in front of Ms. Helena.”
The blood man Barrow’s spirit body shook, and quickly floated in front of Ulysses, raised his shackled arm, staring at Ulysses’ eyes, and asked excitedly:
“Then what?”
Ulysses remembered the agreement with Helena, avoided his expectant eyes, and said softly:
“It’s a pity that her hatred for you has been like a day for thousands of years, and it has never diminished.”
Then Ulysses watched the light in the depths of the bloody Barrow’s eyes fall and extinguish with his own eyes, and forcibly pulled out a sad smile on his face, muttering:
“Should… My crime is unforgivable and deserves to be hated… As long as she knows my regrets, I will be satisfied…”
Pippi had already slipped away when he saw the situation, and he couldn’t guarantee that Barrow would know whether he would kill him the next day after witnessing this scene.
Ulysses stood quietly on the spot, waiting for the bloody Barrow to ease his grief.
After a long time, Barrow the Bloody raised his head, watching Ulysses’ eyes a little more warmth:
“The smoke ball will only open in front of Helena. You have a scent of Helena. You shouldn’t lie to me. Then I should fulfill my promise.”
It raised its hands, a piece of gray smoke spit out from its palms, and the spirit body faded a bit.
Ulysses stretched out his finger, and gray smoke wrapped around his finger a few times, and then poured into his wand.
“It contains the spells and practice methods of the transfer mantra. It is best to find a place where no one can watch it.”
After Barrow condensed the gray smoke, it seemed a little weak. Before it floated back to the oil painting, the tone returned to plain, “Remind you, no matter how you eat the curse, it is best to be alert to the person who casts the curse. This curse makes many powerful wizards feel tricky.”
“Thank you very much. Then I won’t bother.”
Ulysses tried his best to conceal his joy, and after a few words, he left the basement and went straight to the responsive house.
Which place is the safest and uninterrupted, of course, is a magical house on demand.
Ulysses couldn’t wait to get rid of the curse in his body, it was like a poisonous thorn stuck in Ulysses’ chest.
When I came to the eighth floor, I meditated on the needs in my heart. After wandering back and forth three times, the door of the House of Requests opened as I wished.
Ulysses pushed the door in. It was blank and there were no decorations. But he didn’t care, Lotus Position sat on the ground, took out his wand, and smoke floated out.
The gray smoke gradually condensed into a dynamic picture, in which stood a young wizard. The wizard’s robe was completely different from the modern shape, looking simple and solemn.
His hands suddenly made a few strange gestures, and the syllables exhaled in his mouth were very clear. Then, the magic power around his body surface made abnormal agitation. A black thread was continuously stripped from his body and poured into the body of a toad lying on the ground beside him. The poison sac on the back of the toad was visible to the naked eye. It became darker and darker, his expression more and more painful, and eventually burst into death.
Ulysses was lost in thought. The principle of the transfer mantra is simple and easy to understand. It is nothing more than the transfer of a substance to another carrier. But the difficulty lies in the fact that this young wizard uses wandless spellcasting and ancient magic texts.
Almost ancient wizards cast spells without wands, and wands were used by wizards with insufficient talents. They like to feel the magic power, touch the magic power, and release the magic power most directly. The spell cast is more powerful and effective.
Over time, the wand became more and more popular with modern wizards. Its effect is equivalent to a “signal amplifier”, which can help wizards to cast spells more conveniently, and the accuracy has also been improved.
It can be said that the two have their own strengths, but Ulysses is not a student of the African Wagadu School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Almost everyone there is good at casting spells without a wand. He grew up in Europe and is already familiar with the existence of magic wands. Although he has a few spells that can be released without the use of a magic wand, all of them are spells that he is familiar with, and the difficulty is not counted. high.
At the moment, imagine using a wandless cast spell to cast a transfer spell, which will inevitably require a lot of practice.
There is also the ancient magic text read by the young wizard. Ulysses’s magic knowledge can only be said to be a little understood, and you have to find a way to decipher it first.
If the spell goes wrong, the effect will be very different, and there is even a high risk.
Ulysses put away the ashes and withdrew from the House of Request. When I came in again, the room was full of books, all of which were records and documents related to ancient magic texts.
He rubbed his eyebrows, played the spell in the gray smoke repeatedly, and then plunged his mind into the magic texts and began to translate sentence by sentence.
