Chapter 12 The first combat of magic
......
Ten o'clock in the evening in the town of Winton, Edward Orphanage.
"Crookshanes, Dad, go out, don't run around at home!"
Jerry picked up his wand, put on his black clothes, and said to a long-haired **** cat who was lying on the ground, grabbing his big fluffy tail and entertaining himself, then opened the window and got out. .
Jerry's room is on the second floor of the orphanage, but with his skills, the second floor is not a problem at all, he just jumped off easily by leveraging the window on the first floor.
In fact, many children are better at climbing than adults, especially Jerry is a child with eight-pack abs and the strength is not inferior to that of the average seventeen or eighteen-year-old.
The orphanage at ten o'clock was already dark. Jerry walked through the front yard in the dark, and swiftly climbed over the big iron gate and left the orphanage.
Choosing to experiment with magic at night to earn a little red star, taking into account that his actions at night are not easy to be discovered, and many crimes generally occur at night.
"Fluorescent flashes!"
Taking the wand out of his arms, Jerry whispered a spell, and the tip of the wand suddenly glowed brightly, as bright as a flashlight.
The Wand Lighting Spell is one of the simplest of the fourteen spells that Jerry has learned.
However, when he was learning this spell, he saw an extension behind it and said that this spell also has an advanced version. Once it is used, the brightness is comparable to that of a small sun, and it is generally used in a small world instead of the sun. .
This made him think about watching Newt's suitcase in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" in his previous life, maybe the small world inside the suitcase, the sun was made with the advanced spell of this spell.
Therefore, Jerry felt that he could not underestimate the basic spells he was learning now. Maybe many subsequent powerful spells were created on the basis of these low-level spells.
......
The Edward Orphanage is located in the south of the town, which is a relatively remote location. Jerry took the magic wand and walked for nearly 20 minutes before arriving at the center of the town.
Different from the fact that the orphanage has all gone to sleep, there are still many small shops in the town at ten o'clock, especially near the bar in the town, many men and women dressed in fancy dress come in and out.
In Jerry's impression, it was easier for crimes to happen near the bar at midnight, so he kept patrolling around the bar with his wand, and he went to the dark alleys with fewer people.
It's a pity that he patrolled until one o'clock in the morning, and he didn't encounter a single crime, but when he first entered the town, he encountered an old couple who were walking at night and accidentally slipped. At two o'clock Little Red Star.
But he had no choice but to go back to the orphanage to sleep first, planning to attack the next day.
Facts have proved that the world of "Harry Potter" and the world of Marvel are still different, especially in a small town where life is not stressful, it is really not easy to encounter a crime incident.
Go out at 10 o'clock every night and come back at 1 o'clock in the morning.
It wasn't until the night before his return that Jerry finally encountered a small heist.
At half past eleven, it was in a dim alley in the small town of Winton.
A young white-collar woman who came home late due to overtime was blocked by a strong white man with a fruit knife.
And this scene just made Jerry, who was patrolling everywhere, caught him.
However, he did not appear to save the white-collar worker immediately, but hid at the exit of the alley, quietly watching the brawny man. After he succeeded, he took the stolen money and necklace in one hand, and the fruit knife in the other, and rushed forward. ran out of the alley.
"Fra Dimension!"
Pulling out his wand, Jerry aimed at a puddle of water at the exit of the alley, and threw a Transfiguration Charm.
The weather in London is rainy and foggy, and water puddles left by the rain can often be seen on the ground.
Hit by the magical light of the Transfiguration Spell, the large pool of water instantly turned into super moist lubricant, and the brawny man who fled in a hurry, stepped on the lubricant as soon as he walked out of the alley.
"Ouch!"
As soon as his feet slipped, the brawny man was slid out of his body because he was too fast, and fell to the ground ruthlessly.
Among the fourteen spells that Jerry has learned, Transfiguration is the most difficult. Other magics generally add certain properties to certain substances, while Transfiguration is to completely change one substance into another.
Also, it can be separated from all spells and listed as a discipline, and its esoteric degree can be imagined.
However, not all transfigurations are so difficult in beginner transfiguration spells. It is mentioned in the book that if you want to improve the success rate of the transformation spell, you should pay attention to a few points in the transformation.
First of all, the deformation of the same substance will be easier, such as turning water into wine, and turning water into oil, which is generally easy for young wizards who have just entered the school in the first grade.
On the other hand, it would be extremely difficult to turn water into stone and into steel.
However, converting non-creatures into creatures and converting creatures into non-creatures is not too difficult, but it requires some learning about conversion spells.
Secondly, the smaller the thing, the easier it is to transform, such as turning matches into needles and hair into threads.
On the other hand, it would be very difficult to turn a match into a spear or a telephone pole.
Finally, the simpler the structure, the easier it is to transform. For example, turning a mouse into a snuff box or turning a rabbit into slippers can be done by first- and second-year wizards.
As a counter example, it would be very difficult to turn an owl into a telescope, and even many fifth-year wizards could not do it, not to mention conjuring planes, cannons, and machine guns. Even Dumbledore might not be able to do so.
These are still basic. For example, the more in-depth Transfiguration also involves Gamp's law of transformation, cross-species transformation, human transformation, etc., so he needs to go to school to learn slowly.
"Smoky!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the strong man fell and got up before he came, Jerry threw a smokescreen spell over it.
Immediately, the strong man was surrounded by a cloud of smoke, and Jerry rushed into the smoke like a little cheetah.
The strong man on the ground was still in a state of bewilderment, but he seemed to sense that a figure appeared in front of him, and quickly grabbed the fruit knife that fell on the ground.
"Soften up fast!"
However, Jerry's reaction speed was faster, a softening spell was thrown on the fruit knife, and the fruit knife instantly collapsed like noodles.
"Little dragon wagging its tail!"
After removing the biggest threat to him, Jerry mercilessly kicked the head of the strong man who was about to stand up with a full-strength whip.
Jerry's strength is no worse than that of an ordinary 16- or 17-year-old boy. He kicked the strong man's temple with all his strength, and immediately knocked him out.
