章 47: Chapter 47: Modified broom (Edited)
"Knock, knock, knock!"
"Come in!" Professor Flitwick's high-pitched voice echoed through the office, and at the sight of his visitor he gave a slightly embarrassed smile, "Yodel, I haven't finished modifying the broom yet, but I'm getting somewhere..."
"Professor, I didn't come to ask for a broom, I want you to test my learning," Tom said.
"Not for a broom then? What?" Professor Flitwick looked up in surprise, glaring at Tom, "What do you want me to test you on?"
"Professor, I've been studying on my own all semester, I'd like to ask you a series of questions to test the results of my self-study." Tom respectfully stated his request to Professor Flitwick, he could not help but be respectful, if Professor Flitwick refused to test him, he would have to wait six months. He wasn't afraid that Professor Flitwick would question him, he was sure of himself, and besides, wasn't it normal to call Tom an exceptionally talented wizard?
It was the first time Professor Flitwick had seen such an outrageous request. He looked at Tom, a little speechless, "Do you think it's that easy to think of final exam questions? It takes a professor a weekend to think of one: not too easy, not too hard, preferably differentiated, not exaggerated, and with careful consideration of a second answer, which is hard for a professor!
The most painful thing is that you have to write all these questions yourself. Without a computer, this is a real headache. I'm afraid it's hard for moderns to understand the difficulties of 20th century scientists who didn't have computers.
For example, Jack Heatherington, a professor at Michigan State University, published a very influential paper in 1975, but the funny thing is that he used a lot of first person "we" throughout the paper, but at that time there was a rule that if you used first person "we", there must be more than one person authors, but the if the author signed for only one person, then this kind of paper cannot be published. The problem was that there was no word replacement or one-click replacement and he had to type every word of the paper on his typewriter....
So he had an idea, he named his Siamese cat as the second author of the article, he called it: F.D.C. Willard (Felix Domesticus, Chester; Chester Willard domestic cat, Willard having been Chester's father's name) and successfully published the article. So there was an article with the name of the cat, and the impact factor of many people's lives may not be as great as this cat.
Oh, and this method is not recommended for other people, because immunologist Polly Machinger did the same thing and was banned for life by the grumpy editor-in-chief of a magazine....
"Show me all those spells in the book." Professor Flitwick decided to start with a pretest.
So Tom started with the spell (Incendio), showing Professor Flitwick the spells mentioned in Standard Spells - Beginners, some of which he had learned from the draw, some of which he had learned during self-teaching, and some of which Hermione had taught him. They all had one thing in common: they hadn't improved in a long time.
Professor Flitwick's expression gradually turned to one of surprise. When Tom finished the last spell and opened a small, delicate lock, he couldn't help but clap his hands, "Very good! You really got everything right, although some things aren't quite right!"
He pulled a piece of paper and a small delicate box out of his drawer, "Come on, let this box run around the table first."
Tom did as he was told. Although it was a little stumbling, but the box moved on its four little legs. Then Professor Flitwick handed Tom a piece of parchment, which contained the questions from last year's final exam.
It was an hour later when Tom finished writing the paper. Professor Flitwick took the paper and corrected it. He corrected it quickly, returning it in less than five minutes.
"Alright, with the grades and the practical work just done, you can barely get an 'O'!" Professor Flitwick looked very pleased.
Tom had also passed the spell casting test, but strangely had not reached level 1. Confused, he waved goodbye to Professor Flitwick, but Professor Flitwick stopped him before he left his office. Professor Flitwick took a small book from his desk and floated it over to Tom.
'This is a bit of my experience with the second year textbook, Standard Spells - Level 2, and contains my second year syllabus, so as you have already mastered the first year, there is no need to delay, read it in advance.' Professor Flitwick smiled with relief: it had been a long time since he had seen such a talented and hard-working young wizard.
Tom took the book, bowed to Professor Flitwick, and left the office.
When he returned to the Common Room, it was not yet lunchtime, so he skimmed through Professor Flitwick's notes, and by the time it was dinnertime, he had passed level 1 in his Enchantment theory, and at the same time, many spells advanced to level 1.
Now, he knew the key to working his way through the various theories of knowledge. But he didn't rush to ask the other teachers for an advancement test, because he wasn't too sure about the rest of the subjects, and in a class like Snape's Potions, if you didn't know what you were getting into, it was the same as dying.
But the key reason was that the Wandless Casting technique required the spells to be at level 1. What he should do now was to familiarize himself with these spells and practice them to become more proficient. After all, his highest proficiency spell, (Lumos), was only 17%, which meant a 17% success rate in wanting to use it without a wand.
After Halloween, it was November, and in the Scottish Highlands in November, it was very cold, cold as hell. That's when Tom thought of Beauxbatons magical school, which is in the south of France, and it's not too cold in November, and the pretty ladies at the school do their best to look their best....
But the cold could not dampen the enthusiasm of the young wizards, not in terms of learning, of course, but in terms of Quidditch. On the first Sunday in November (November 3), Tom received his broom: it had taken Professor Flitwick almost two months to complete the modification.
Of course, if you're a regular buyer of custom figurines and keyboards, you'll be used to this sort of thing.
Tom took the broom, played with it for a while, and watched as his magic item bar in the system changed: [Flying Broom - Sweeper Seven (modified)]
[With Professor Flitwick's modification, this broom can instantly accelerate for 1 second, with a 1 minute cooldown].
This ability, which seems fine, is too short and a bit annoying for other positions, but it's a nice change for Hunters.
