The Mightiest Wizard of Hogwarts

Chapter 151 The Secret of the Map

This is?

Feeney looked at the line of text seductively,
Legilimency?

This spell suddenly appeared in his mind, because only this spell can read the things in other people's minds, whether it is ideas, plans, or memories.

So, maybe the magic on this map is just a trace spell combined with insanity?
The map can use Legilimency within the scope of Hogwarts to read the memories of little wizards to determine their names.

Trace spells are then automatically generated, showing the location and behavior of those little wizards.

If the principle of the Marauder's Map is really like this, then Feeney has to admit that the four predators were really geniuses.

Because legilimency is fixed on a certain object, and this object still has a certain amount of intelligence, it is the effect of the enchantment spell in Gryffindor's inheritance,
That's what the sorting hat is.

And there is absolutely no problem with the four Marauders who also mastered the Enchantment Curse in school being called geniuses. Gryffindor's inheritance treasures are not so easy to obtain.

But there is also a problem, that is, the Marauder's Map is just a magic item after all, even if he has his own intelligence, he can't expand the scope of his fixed Legilimency spell to the entire Hogwarts,

You must know that although Hogwarts is only a magic school, its scope is not small, including a small part of the Black Lake, a small part of the Forbidden Forest, Quidditch pitches, fields, castles and so on.

So, Feeney suspected, there might still be some connection between the Marauder's Map and the Hogwarts castle.

Although he doesn't want to understand what this connection is now, he can also think of some key issues,

That is, when they came to Hogwarts castle through the Black Lake during their first year, they were attached with a protocol magic from Hogwarts castle. Therefore, the Marauder's Map that has all connections with the castle knows It is not difficult to get all the students' names.

Thinking of this, Feeney is not very sure,
However, if this idea is correct, it is understandable that there are no traces of magic on the Marauder's Map,
Because in this case, the real Marauder's Map is actually this Hogwarts castle, not the parchment in front of him.

The parchment in front of him was actually just an extension.

But how did the marauders manage to link the Marauder's Map with the castle?

Casting spells on the castle, as long as they are not fools, they will not do it, because even if they drain themselves completely, or even die after exhausting their magic power, they will not be able to make the entire castle under their own magic, even for a long time. Not bad.

Therefore, it is more likely that the looters found the control center of the castle, allowing them to directly obtain part of the castle's authority, just like the headmaster of Hogwarts, and then used this authority to create the living map in hand.

However, today, Feeney has not seen traces of magic on the Marauder's Map, so he cannot find out where the so-called control center of the castle is based on the traces, which makes it impossible to copy and study the Marauder's Map in his hand .

So, the key issue now is to find the control center of Hogwarts Castle. In fact, there is no need to look for it, because Finney knows very well that such a place is probably Dumbledore's office. You know, in the original book, Dumbledore After being expelled from Hogwarts, his office was completely sealed off. Although Umbridge's big toad is the headmaster in name, he couldn't control Hogwarts because she was not recognized and not given the school permission,

Many people thought that she couldn't get into the office because she wasn't recognized, but Feeney always felt that he wasn't recognized because he couldn't get in.

In fact, it doesn't matter the other way around, because if you are recognized, you will naturally be able to enter, and those who can enter will naturally be recognized.

Looking at his name on the Marauder's Map, Finny sighed,
At least because Phineas's name is on the map, there is no need to find a way to hide it immediately because of hiding his identity. However, a map that can follow his actions in Hogwarts is still a bit dangerous .

Frowning, Feeney felt that he should find a way to hide his name on the Marauder's map, but he was not in such a hurry, he could slowly figure out a way in the future, and by the way, when returning the map to George and Fred , so that they see that their name is also on the map, it will not arouse their suspicion.

So the map in my hand is actually useless to me now,

Feeney was a little disappointed thinking that he originally brought the map to study the magic on it, but now that the main body of the magic release on it is not the map itself, there is no need to study it.

suddenly,

Finney remembered the usefulness of the Marauder's Map to him. He first recorded the secret passages recorded on the map. Although he wanted to leave Hogwarts, he could ask Puff to take him away. However, the task of exploring Hogwarts on the system panel still needs these secret passages,

After that, he put the realization on Sakaski's name, for which Finney has always been very vigilant.

It doesn't matter at all, but it makes Finny feel terrified,
Because Sakalski's name is not on the map!
You know, this Marauder's Map had been kept in a drawer in his office by Filch before, and before George and the others stole it, only its creators, the looters, used it.
Therefore, Sakalski will not and has not had the opportunity to cast a spell on the Marauder's Map, erasing his name,

Then, there are only two explanations for his absence on the map. One is that he is not in Hogwarts at this time. However, this possibility is very low, because he has not left Hogwarts since the beginning of this school year. ,
Therefore, without his name, it is only the second possibility that he is in a place that is not on the map,

As far as Finney knows, there are at least two places in Hogwarts that are not on this Marauder's map, one is the Room of Requirement, and the other is Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets.

Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets requires a snake tongue to enter, so at this time, Sakalski is in the Room of Requirement.

And it was he who was scary in the Room of Requirement,
You know, he didn't graduate from Hogwarts, but from Schuyler, and he has been teaching in Schuyler after graduation. He has never been to Hogwarts before.

This visit to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was the first time he had set foot in this castle, and it was only four months since he found the Room of Requirement?
