章 335: Chapter 335 Niffler's Education

Goblins are one of the few humanoid races that have preserved their cultural heritage intact. In addition to their unique goblin magic and mastery of craftsmanship, they have their own language, customs, and settlements.

Many aspects of them are close to wizards, for example - the routine of parents scaring children.

In the many fairy tales of goblins, Niffler is a being comparable to the devil. They have more than just a bad reputation, even among adult goblins, if you choose the top ten golden curses, "Your family will attract Niffler!" will definitely be on the list, and probably at the top.

"Don't worry, Valen has many treasures." Felix said.

Gonuk became even more uncomfortable after hearing this, in the goblin concept, the more treasures you have, there will be more cravings for it, otherwise, how could one save such a thick family fortune! He hurriedly excused himself. Clammy looked outside for a moment, and announced to them with joy: "Mr. Gonuk has chosen the tent farthest from us." The crowd couldn't help but laugh.

It became dark, and Felix stayed alone in his tent, pulling out a stack of parchments and sorting through his trip's haul.

First and Foremost, there is nine ancient magic, which is simply a huge harvest. In order to conceal his identity, the magic that Herpo left on the slab is relatively normal and not mixed with strange things. Felix asked himself if he could leave intact if he broke into this place during the time Herpo was alive?

In particular, Herpo left a heartfelt message on a slab slate closest to the dark room. The general meaning is: since you broke through all the trials, then you obtained my approval, I left all my knowledge in the hidden chamber.

Uh ... all is a lie.

But this technique is extremely clever, Felix is also re-sorting the details to discover the subtlety of this scheme. With nine unadulterated ancient magic acts as bait, and in between these magic, those seemingly useless stone slabs of self-introduction, travel insights, is what Herpo carefully laid out to let your guard down.

For example, he first introduced his origins, and then told the strange stories of his travels aboard, told a lot of hidden secrets, between the lines to give a formidable, solitary, proud wizard image.

Such a person will never scheme you, right? It's not worth it at all! Wizards of that era did not have the concept of Horcrux.

Most ancient wizards set up secret chambers, either to hide treasures or to set up tombs, these locations are naturally full of traps, no one would want to "disclose" their powerful magic.

So, in Felix's opinion, with the mindset of the wizards at the time, it was difficult not to be tricked.

And when the latter recognized the image of wizard fabricated by Herpo, their vigilance would be greatly reduced, and they would only be careful to deal with the "test" of the predecessor, but they would fail to guard against the most insidious cold arrow from behind the scenes.

What's more, Herpo said some words of encouragement one after another in the subsequent slate, encouraging those who came later to continue to go forward, and also left some little useful tips, which in fact will increase his status in the minds of those who broke in.

But he did not say a word about those key information, just waiting for them to fall into the pit. For example, the powerful curse disguised as a small stone placed on the necessary path; or suddenly increasing the power and strength of the curse, so that people would be caught off guard. But once the latter is preoccupied and determines that these are tests, they will only think that they are not strong enough, not capable enough, and will not think of his evil intentions.

Unfortunately, all schemes and calculations can not stop the invasion of time, Herpo's many arrangements seem so pale and feeble under the river of time, even his painstakingly, layers by layers guarded Horcrux was long been destroyed by itself.

"It is also possible that his skills are not up to scratch." Felix thought, "After all, it was the world's first Horcrux, and some oversight was inevitable."

...

Of the nine ancient magics Felix had written down, There are four main attacks magics - Golden Flame, Black Lightning, Corrosive Black Mist, and Human Transfiguration; Two defensive magic - Silver Shield and Compressed Air, and the last three are of a supportive nature, which he hadn't had time to study carefully.

"Well, Herpo also didn't leave the names of these magic, I can only make up the names myself according to their characteristics ..." Felix scratched his head with some difficulty, forget it, the names and stuff are not important.

At this time, Niffler who lazily lying on the tent carpet approached him, Felix knocked her head with his hand, as she grunted she ran outside, taking away two golden galleons, twelve silver Sickles, and six copper Knuts with her.

Felix didn't pay much attention, he was thinking about ancient magic, the most magical thing here is the defensive magic of compressed air, in fact, instead of compressed air, it should be compressed space, at least a similar effect.

Although not clearly defined, wizards have the distinct impression by heart that there is a distance limit to casting spells, at least for the most part. You can't expect to throw a disarming charm at the sky, and it will fly straight up to a moon, right? There's a limit to every spell, caused by various reasons.

Among the magic Felix currently mastered, the spell with the longest casting distance should be the Patronus Charm. In his many studies, one of his directions is to let the Patronus change shape, so it can turn into Felix's own appearance, then it is convenient to go to buy something, or communicate with people, but when he said this idea to Dumbledore, Dumbledore chided him for thinking too much.

"The Patronus is a mapping of the mind, instead of thinking of changing its form, I would suggest you put a wizard's robe over it ..."

Felix gladly accepted the suggestion until he finds the alternative, he used blank memories to weave a transparent glowing robe, so at least the Patronus could be disguised as a ghost, maybe a new ghost would roam Hogwarts castle after the school year started.

Felix collected his chaotic thoughts and focused on the magic of compressed air, its principle is simple, in front of the caster to build a wall of air, but this air wall is a compressed section of space so that the magic attacking him/her would naturally collapse out of casting range and control distance.

Theoretically, this magic can resist all attacks, even including the Killing Curse.

Felix had already decided to put it and Black Lightning at the top of the learning list. Black Lightning magic is also very powerful, and it is characterized by its extreme speed and penetrating power, which makes ordinary defensive magic useless altogether.

His own humanoid shield charm was originally less defensive than the normal shield charm, facing this black lightning, it will be as fragile as a thin layer of parchment.

Felix once again sighed, Herpo knew exactly how to invest the capital well.

"What a good man, it's a pity he died."

In addition to these nine ancient magic, he also experienced a unique curse teaching, although Herpo did not teach him a single curse, Felix still with his own tangible experience figured out some things, he now needs to record those things.

...

Niffler Valen came in from outside the tent and saw Felix fluently writing words on parchment, his shadow constantly swaying in the tent, the interior light flickering on and off, Niffler startled, then grabbed a gem and smashed it on Felix's head.

Felix looked at the gem in front of him, turned his head, and looked at Niffler, both small and big ones looked at each other and fell into a wordless silence.

A few minutes later, he lifted Niffler upside down and flung a pile of golden galleons and various bits and pieces of treasure out of her little pocket, including his Order of Merlin and broken time-turner, and of course, the small pile of suspicious gems in the corner stood out quite a bit.

"Looks like you're in for a good lesson." Felix morphed a small cup into a small bench and made Niffler sit on it in a disciplined manner, "Be a good girl and sit down, I'm the one who neglected your education, we have ... about four hours before you return these stuff."

Niffler Valen pushed her pink beak into her arms, she had a strong feeling that her carefree childhood is slipping away from her.

"I need to give you a make-up of basic education, or wait until school starts, you might get into some kind of trouble ... Let's see, the economic books I've read, the section on property ownership, is very educational ... "
