When the data of the last little sorcerer was recorded by Lady Dexterous Hands, Allen waved his hand casually. Dozens of books with blue backgrounds and bronze embossed covers similar to gold decorations floated in front of every sorcerer.
"Dumbledore used this trick before, but he used the Silent Spell Technique, but he used a wand. Allen cast the spell without a wand." Harry's eyes were burning, but Neville did not respond to him.
Harry looked at Neville strangely and found that Neville was staring at the books floating in front of him.
"Wizards use wands to guide magic, so they can make the effect of the spells more accurate and effective. Only powerful and skilled wizards can master difficult spells without a wand. Transfiguration and curses are usually difficult to cast without a wand, and if the operation is not accurate enough, it is easy to cause unexpected consequences. I can only cast a few small spells with this technique. " Hermione responded to Harry. "However, wands are a magical tool invented in Europe, so before wands were introduced to other places, wizards did not rely on them. The Native Americans had formed their own magic system before the European colonists arrived, and they did not need wands. African wizards did not accept wands until the 20th century, and even today, wands are not necessary for them to cast magic. Although the African wizards cast spells without a wand as a price, wands are not comparable to Allen's true magic without a wand, or Dumbledore's rare skills without a wand."
Harry's gaze was immediately fixed on the book. Large bronze engravings of the Imprint of Omniscience were all over the book, and the Omniscient Eye in the middle of the book seemed to possess limitless magical powers. It attracted the attention of the adepts, and they couldn't take their eyes off it. Harry's fingers could not help but slowly brush across the embossed lines.
"I can tell that this book is worth a lot just by looking at it." Ernie McMillan stared at the sapphire engraved on the cover, which was the All-Seeing Eye. He murmured in admiration as he held the book tightly. "If we are required to buy it ourselves like other subjects, I think many students will have to give up this course for financial reasons."
"There's a metal lock on the spine. Where is it supposed to be hung?" Theodore Nott from Slytherin said, pointing at the lock on the spine.
"Maybe it's on the backpack or the belt so that we can carry it around. Look at Al … Look at Professor Harris's belt." Draco Malfoy explained. Theodore Nott looked up at Allen's belt with a demon skull on it and said with envy, "I also want a custom-made belt like Professor Harris'. It looks so cool."
"Idiot, let's not talk about whether you have the ability to get it. The key point is that you don't have Professor Harris' robe. A belt won't match our school uniform." Braith Zabini had been educated well by his mother, Mrs. Zabini, who had been widowed six times.
"Miss Dexterous Hands measured our waistlines just now. Obviously, the professor will prepare it for us. This lock is a raven." Malfoy said as he touched the lock firmly fastened to the embossed cover of the book. His fingers pressed on the lock's lifelike raven, whose wings were still slightly vibrating. He wanted to open the book.
With a soft click, the lock opened. "Wow —" Malfoy exclaimed in surprise. He was not the only one who was surprised. The young wizards had never seen such a book before. They used to think that "The Book of Monsters" and "The Book of Invisibility" were very strange books, but the book in front of them had completely broken their understanding. The text in the book was not in order. On the smooth dark blue page, which was like a starry sky, the silver magic words moved slowly like stars.
These jumping characters attracted the wizards' attention, but they could not completely read the content. Even if they widened their eyes, they could not see anything from the floating characters.
"It seems that you like the little gift I gave you?" At this time, Allen's voice rang in their ears. "You can't see the content in this book now. When we have a theory class, I'll let the content of our class appear on the page, and then the page will automatically arrange the content of our class. If you want to read or revise after class, all you have to do is hold the book in your hand and try to recall it in your mind. You will be able to see the relevant text. "
Although they knew that there was probably no content in the book at this time, wizards like Michael and Draco could not help but search for various keywords in their minds, trying to see some content.
Allen walked down the podium and continued, "You can also use this book as an endless notebook. You don't need ink, just write on it with a quill. “
"Professor," Michael Kona raised his hand and asked directly, "What if you accidentally write it wrong? “
"Focus on your mind and think about how to erase the mistakes. Wipe them with your hand and they will disappear." Allen nodded to Michael. After sitting down, Michael could not wait to take out his quill and carefully slide it on his book. There were many wizards like him who did this.
Jenny's face was pale, but she did not want to touch the quill. She remembered her nightmarish experience of writing in Tom Liddell's diary and talking about the mysterious man as a confidant. She clenched the quill so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
Hermione looked at Jenny worriedly and held her arm, trying to give her some warmth and encouragement. "Don't worry, Jenny. This is not —"
"It won't talk to you." Luna also came over with her big eyes bulging.
"But that's not the most important thing. The most important function is —" While the wizards were experimenting with the function of the textbook, Alan raised his voice to draw their attention back to himself. "This book allows you to store a spell. As long as he touched the book, he could quickly cast the spell with a single thought or command. Of course, you have to store it again after the spell is cast. "
The classroom instantly became restless. Even someone as slow-witted as Neville understood what this meant. If there was a piece of armor stored inside, it might be a chance to save one's life and win during a critical moment in a battle.
"Because the trigger mechanism requires you to be able to touch it quickly, there's a metal lock on the spine of the book to make it easier for you to carry. Just now, Madam Loris II recorded your body's data for you. As for the other stuff, I'll give it to you in the next class." Allen pointed at the spine of the book as a textbook floated in the air.
"This setting is indeed necessary because there are always idiots who lose things." Draco glanced at Neville, who was holding the book admiringly. He curled his lips and looked at Neville sarcastically. In his mind, it was a waste for Allen to give such a good thing to a guy who always lost things.
Neville hugged the book in his arms. After realizing that he was in line with Draco's sarcasm, he quickly said, "Professor Harris, I'll definitely take good care of it. I won't let it be lost."
"Don't worry. This book has a very strong privacy. Even if you accidentally lose the book, the content recorded in it will not be discovered by others." Allen turned the book in the air in a certain direction. "This raven shaped lock is like the golden snitch. It has a physical memory function. Only the first person who touches it can open this lock. Even if others get your book, they won't be able to open it. Of course, if you lose it, you'll have to pay for the next book yourself. I'll say in advance that it's not cheap. "
The reason why Allen carefully designed the textbooks for the students was that the ancient magic he wanted to teach was almost impossible to buy related books on the market. Even if some of the knowledge was leaked to bookstores, it was not like other subjects that were systematized into textbooks. The content was not suitable for the little wizards who had not yet graduated.
So Allen could only summarize and print it himself. He did not choose to print the textbooks in the traditional way. He wanted to take this opportunity to try to use the knowledge in the Nether Scrolls to create these ancient magic items. It was also a kind of practice for himself. He collected the feelings and other data of the students during the process of using the books and constantly improved his design concept. When the technology was mature, Allen could equip himself and Aura with more mature products.
The functions of the textbooks this time were also carefully considered by Allen. On one hand, these little wizards would naturally take out the textbooks to take notes when they were in other classes. After all, with a portable notebook that could be used infinitely, who would want to carry a pile of heavy ordinary notebooks and parchments with them? On the other hand, in order to store a spell in the textbook, they would try to carry this book with them at all times even when they were not in class.
In other words, his students were constantly promoting ancient magic lessons to the young adepts who had yet to join the academy. Therefore, in addition to the two functions of storing a spell and recording information, which were of real practical use, Allen did not hesitate to spend a lot of extra gold coins to decorate the book. Those exquisite reliefs and the gems on them were actually completely unnecessary decorative items. They were only used as a means of publicity to put on these personal imprints that represented Harris.
The introduction of the textbook was almost done. The ancient magic professor tied the book floating in front of him to his belt and let the book hang on his left waist. This action was also as Allen expected. It attracted the attention of the little wizards who admired him. They were quite envious and believed that this style would make them scramble to imitate it in the future.
Then, Allen clapped his hands and said, "Now, please put away the textbooks. We don't need to study theory today. Everyone, follow me. I'll take you to the practice field to officially start the first class. "
