Hogwarts Bloodline

Chapter 7 Have I suddenly become stupid?

The quiet environment made Ivan very grateful to the administrator, Mrs. Pince. The library's rule of prohibiting loud noises was indeed necessary. As a basic theoretical book on the Transfiguration Spell, the difficulty of "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration" was not high, but the thick pages were obviously not something that could be read in a short time. An hour passed in a flash, and Ivan's hand only turned a little more than one-third of the page. After thinking for a while, Ivan continued to lower his head to read the book. When he finished reading the whole book, another hour and a half had passed. After reading for more than two hours, when Ivan put the book down, his mind was a little groggy. These old magic books usually like to add some strange words that are mysterious and incomprehensible. It seems that only in this way can the mystery of magic be shown, which makes Ivan, who is used to learning modern books, very uncomfortable. "Maybe this is a wizard," Ivan muttered to himself, thinking that this rather metaphysical way of thinking may be the talent of wizards. Anyway, he can't understand it! [Ding, after a period of careful reading, you feel that "Beginner's Transfiguration Guide" is boring and difficult to understand, and your proficiency in the Transfiguration spell has slightly improved. Note: "Beginner's Transfiguration Guide" reading progress: 27%] The system prompt sound that sounded in his mind once again surprised Ivan, because the corresponding prompt did not trigger when he read the textbook in class before. Is it to finish reading? Ivan suddenly realized the difference. He had never finished reading any magic book before. This should be the difference. After having an idea in his mind, Ivan turned to complain about the system prompt sound that was no different from the game log. Ivan felt that although there were some things he didn't understand after reading the book, it was not boring and difficult to understand, right? Ivan could understand the 27% reading progress. Those who have read the book know that finishing it does not mean that you can remember all the knowledge in the book and use it freely. Otherwise, wouldn't everyone get full marks in the exam? "Now let's see how powerful the so-called academic experience card is." Ivan whispered to himself, and then spent 100 points to exchange for the academic experience card. [Remaining time: 00:59:59] In an instant, Ivan felt as if something in his brain had exploded. The knowledge he had learned recently and the contents of the books he had read seemed to keep pouring out, and were classified and summarized in just half a minute. Various thoughts gradually became clear. This feeling was like using an old and worn-out computer and suddenly replacing it with the latest one. A minute later, Ivan opened his tightly closed eyes and gently brushed the cover of the book "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration" with his right hand. Although he had not opened it yet, the content he had read before had already appeared in Ivan's mind. The words and sentences that were originally obscure and difficult to understand seemed to have a new way of interpretation when combined with the context. As a basic book used by Hogwarts to teach young wizards, "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration" must have been revised many times. It is refined and concise, at least for wizards. By the time Ivan turned the pages to read again, he had already understood the contents of the book. All that was left was to reread the parts that he had skipped before. Page 3, Chapter 2, Page 7, Chapter 13 Ivan's hands were rapidly flipping through the book, and the index of his reading progress in his mind was also increasing rapidly. In just 20 minutes, Ivan had finished reading the entire book again. [Ding, after a period of careful reading, you feel that the book is simple and clear, and there is no challenge at all. Your proficiency in the Transfiguration spell has greatly improved. Current progress in reading the book: 100%! Reading reward: 5 academic points] [Transfiguration has reached level 1, current proficiency (12200), reward 5 academic points] At the moment Ivan put down the book, two reminder sounds rang in his mind. It is worth mentioning that Ivan did not feel anything about the upgrade of the Transfiguration spell. There was no upgrade special effect of a golden light on the spot, nor did he feel any other improvement effects. After understanding the principle of the Transfiguration Spell, Ivan felt that casting the Transfiguration Spell was no longer a problem. At least, turning a matchstick into a silver needle was easy for Ivan. Even holding the not-so-powerful wand would not affect his performance. At most, the effect would be slightly weaker. This was in line with Ivan's previous guess. Proficiency and increase would not directly improve his strength, but would be equivalent to expressing his strength through proficiency. Seeing that the Xueba Experience Card would expire in about 37 minutes, Ivan did not stop at all. He sprinted to the bookshelf and picked up the nearest "Detailed Explanation of the Principles of Basic Magic Spells" and started flipping through it. As soon as he got it, Ivan felt that the book was thicker than he had imagined. The content of the book was the analysis of commonly used magic spells and some guesses about the composition of magic power. If Ivan read this kind of purely theoretical book at other times, he would probably find it boring, but this time he read it very enthusiastically. He even ignored the system prompt sound that sounded in Ivan's mind in the middle of the book, and immersed himself in the ocean of knowledge. However, Ivan's expression suddenly changed slightly when he was halfway through the book. He felt that his originally clear brain was covered with a layer of white fog, and his constantly flowing thoughts were forcibly interrupted. This feeling is like being frightened and forced to hold back when you are letting out your water. Have I suddenly become stupid? Ivan looked at the detailed explanation of the principle of the spell in front of him in a daze. For a while, it was difficult for him to adapt to the change in his IQ. It was not until he stood there for a long time that Ivan reacted and gently tapped his dizzy head. He looked carefully and found that the remaining thirty minutes of the Xueba Experience Card had passed. Ivan looked at the half-read pages in his hand and reluctantly opened them again, but the content of the other half suddenly became profound and difficult to understand. His reading efficiency dropped several times, which was hard for Ivan, who had experienced the bonus of the academic master mode, to accept. After reading a few pages, Ivan sighed and put the book in his hand down. After experiencing the academic master mode for an hour, Ivan deeply understood the power of this exchange. This is not just a matter of increasing the learning speed several times, but also includes the comprehensive improvement of comprehension and thinking ability. It can definitely turn a poor student into a top student or even a god-level student! There is almost no problem of not being able to understand knowledge. In short, just learn!
