Chapter 580 "Law Fusion Program"

Fortunately, as Jerry approached the door of the Slytherin common room, a moment of clarity dawned, and he fully grasped the law, returning to his normal state.

"Pure Blood Reign Supreme!"

Jerry recited the password for today's dormitory and confidently stepped into the Slytherin common room, where cheers erupted from all the little Slytherin wizards.

Slytherin wizards had eagerly awaited the return of their Champion, Jerry, who belonged to the prestigious Slytherin Academy and had been elected as a Champion.

The pride of the Academy was evident in the joyful celebration that ensued.

In contrast to a previous occasion, Jerry chose not to employ the wizard shielding spell to leave in disappointment.

Instead, he embraced the camaraderie and celebrated with his fellow Slytherin wizards upon his return to the dormitory.

Once in the dormitory, Jerry wasted no time.

He cloned the newly comprehended law into the ring world, a testament to his unique and extraordinary situation.

While outwardly engaging in daily activities like studying, eating, and sleeping like any other wizard, Jerry's situation was far from ordinary.

Through a special method, he retained only one-tenth of his spiritual power in his body, dedicating the remaining nine-tenths to the continuous analysis of the laws he had comprehended.

Under specific circumstances, one-tenth of the remaining mental power dynamically merged with the other nine-tenths, accelerating the analysis process.

Upon successful completion, the avatars of the nine-tenths of the spirit would separate and enter the ring world to integrate the laws.

Despite these advanced techniques, Jerry acknowledged that achieving fifty percent comprehension of the laws of the Ring World would take hundreds of years, particularly for high-level laws.

Recognizing the impracticality of spending centuries in this world, he contemplated an alternative shortcut – collecting different low-level laws from diverse worlds and fusing them for qualitative changes through quantitative alterations.

Jerry's years of experience had revealed subtle differences in the laws of various worlds. For instance, the law of time in the Harry Potter world allowed revisiting the past without changing it, while the Marvel world's time law only opened new timelines.

These differences allowed Jerry to comprehend and integrate diverse laws into higher-level understanding.

As more than twenty days passed in the blink of an eye, the school remained relatively quiet, except for a potions class where Jerry and two other warriors were interviewed by Rita Skeeter, a reporter from the Daily Prophet.

In the Hogwarts library, Jerry accompanied Hermione as they read books.

A newspaper from the Daily Prophet caught Jerry's attention, featuring an exaggerated report by Rita Skeeter on Krum and Fleur.

"I always hate seeing that woman somehow. Even her words annoy me extremely..." Hermione, disliking the competitors, expressed even greater disdain for Rita's sensationalism.

"Let me tell you this, Hermione. Do you know Rita's secret?" Jerry playfully asked.

"What is it?"

"Rita is an animagus, although she never tells it to anyone. She exploits it to get the juiciest news of all time by turning to a beetle." Jerry shared a secret with Hermione – Rita was an unregistered Animagus who often became a beetle to steal secrets.

Angered by this revelation, Hermione vowed to capture Rita if she attempted to eavesdrop on Jerry.

Just as the atmosphere in the library simmered with tension, Ron and Harry sneaked in with urgent news about the upcoming Triwizard Tournament event. Hermione, already on edge due to the dangerous challenges Jerry might face, listened intently as Ron began the revelation.

"Jerry, guess who Harry and I met in the morning when we went to Hogsmeade to play?"

"Charlie?" Jerry speculated.

"How do you know?" Ron and Harry exclaimed, immediately hushing their voices as others looked over.

"Just a guess," Jerry smiled.

"What the hell is going on? How did Charlie show up in Hogsmeade?"

Hearing about the first project, Hermione's anxiety heightened, prompting Ron to share the surprising revelation.

"Remember the day when we left home? Charlie said we would see each other soon? It turns out he's in charge of the first project of the Triwizard Tournament. Can't guess what the first project will be this time!"

"Could it be... a fire dragon?" Hermione ventured.

This time, Jerry remained silent, leaving Ron and Harry perplexed and eager to uncover the mystery.

The anticipation within Hogwarts reached a fever pitch as the clock ticked down to the imminent unveiling of the Triwizard Tournament's first project.

Jerry, Hermione, Ron, and Harry were caught in a whirlwind of speculation and conjecture during this excitement.

As the trio continued their conversation in the Hogwarts library, the atmosphere crackled with a blend of curiosity and apprehension.

Hermione, concerned for Jerry's safety in the face of the upcoming perilous challenge, couldn't help but scrutinize her friends' expressions.

Wearing a mischievous grin, Ron had already spilled the beans about encountering Charlie in Hogsmeade and hinted at the unexpected twist in the first project.

Even as the conjectures swirled around them, Jerry maintained a composed demeanor, silently contemplating the unfolding events.

In the buzzing excitement, Jerry shed some light on Charlie's role in the upcoming task. "Charlie Weasley," he began, "has a unique expertise in handling magical creatures, particularly dragons. Considering his extensive knowledge, it wouldn't be surprising if the first project involves dragons."

Hermione's eyes widened with a mix of fascination and concern.

The prospect of facing dragons heightened the stakes of the tournament, and her mind raced with strategic considerations.

Meanwhile, Ron and Harry exchanged intrigued glances.

The allure of a dragon-related challenge both thrilled and daunted them.

Ron, in particular, couldn't hide his excitement at the thought of his elder brother orchestrating such a formidable task.

As the conversation unfolded, the library's quietude gave way to animated discussions punctuated by occasional bursts of laughter and excited exclamations.

Other students, drawn by the commotion, cast curious glances in their direction.

Displaying her characteristic determination, Hermione delved into the Hogwarts library's extensive collection of magical creatures.

She sought insights into various dragon breeds, their characteristics, and potential challenges that might be posed in the tournament.

Jerry, sensing Hermione's dedication, offered his assistance.

Together, they meticulously pored over ancient tomes and scholarly journals, gathering valuable information that could prove pivotal in navigating the forthcoming trial.

Ron and Harry, although not as engrossed in the research, shared anecdotes about Charlie's exploits with dragons, adding a touch of levity to the intense atmosphere.

The camaraderie between the four friends served as a source of mutual support as they prepared for the unknown.

The library, usually a sanctuary of silence, transformed into a hub of animated preparation.

Students from different houses joined the collective effort to understand the intricacies of dragon lore, forming impromptu study groups to share knowledge and insights.

Amidst the collective pursuit of knowledge, the librarian, Madam Pince, maintained a watchful eye, ensuring the enthusiasm didn't escalate into disruptive chaos.

The collaborative spirit that emerged among students, united by the looming challenge, was a testament to the unique bonds forged at Hogwarts.

As the day unfolded, the library remained abuzz with activity.

Jerry, Hermione, Ron, and Harry navigated the sea of information, strategizing and planning for the encounter with dragons.

The library's mystical ambiance, coupled with the shared determination of the students, created an atmosphere charged with anticipation and purpose.

The eve of the first project dawned, and the Hogwarts castle stood silent, seemingly holding its breath in anticipation of the challenges ahead.

Armed with newfound knowledge and camaraderie, the four friends braced themselves for the trial that would test their mettle and mark the commencement of the Triwizard Tournament in earnest.
