No Limit to Courting Death

Learning Occlumency doesn't mean William will stop courting death.

Hogwarts is too small. Although it has mountains and water, there are no cell phones, no internet, and you can't even play single-player games... How could William possibly stay there for several years without finding some fun?

William began to rack his brains for thrills, especially those activities that could get his adrenaline pumping; the more dangerous the activity, the better.

As the saying goes, there are no limits to courting death, and this time William has set his sights on extreme rock climbing.

Rock climbing is divided into two types: free climbing and equipment climbing.

Free climbing, also known as rock climbing, is a climb where climbers, wearing climbing shoes and using chalk, use their own limbs to grip and step on the rock face to complete a route without the aid of external forces.

Equipment climbing is much safer, as it adds artificial grips or footholds to the rock face, along with various other tools such as ropes to aid in the climb.

The wildest rock climbing master, Alex Honnold, once climbed the 370-meter-high "Moonlight Buttress" with only a bag of magnesium powder.

One section of the cliff, 215 meters long, had only a vertical crevice about 2.5 centimeters wide. Honnold climbed across this section entirely by securing his body with his fingers.

Later, he took 18 hours and 50 minutes to challenge the three largest rock faces in Yosemite National Park: Mount Watkins, El Capitan, and Half Dome.

The three rock faces together are approximately 2134 meters long. Except for about 152 meters, Honnold climbed the remaining 1982 meters by himself without protection.

This is absolutely insane! This is downright suicidal!

In fact, the most skilled rock climbers in nature are not humans, but goats.

Goats are born with the ability to climb the steepest cliffs with the most graceful posture, just like ballet dancers.

You can often see a large number of goats standing on a cliff, or even on a dam tens of meters high.

Once, as William gazed into the distance, he wondered to himself, "Will it rain goats?"

The reason goats go to such lengths to climb cliffs is not because they enjoy adventure, but to lick the rocks and replenish their salt.

See? Doesn't this instantly remind you of yourself, forced into situations by life's hardships?

Soon, William set himself a small goal: to climb to the top of Hogwarts Castle!

This is even more difficult than racing. Racing is just about controlling the Thestral and going at full speed; there's not much skill involved... As for when you die and how you die, that's another matter entirely.

However, climbing requires skill, as well as great physical strength and strong arm strength; otherwise, you will run out of energy halfway up.

Despite William's daily workouts and great physique, he discovered his stamina was insufficient after climbing just over ten meters!

William had no choice but to go back to exercising.

With his fearless and resilient spirit, he spent about ten months training and finally succeeded in climbing to the top of Hogwarts Tower.

That day, as the sun was setting, William looked up at the sky and roared, full of vigor and feeling great about himself... Actually, the scene was a bit like King Kong shooting down a plane on the roof of the Empire State Building.

After the initial satisfaction of success, William suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.

He started looking for new fun and decided to go scuba diving in Black Lake.

The deepest submersible ever built by humankind is the "Trieste," which explored the Mariana Trench, the deepest point in the Pacific Ocean, and reached a depth of 10,916 meters below sea level.

Without a submersible and without any equipment, the deepest recorded dive by humans is 113 meters, while with equipment, the record is 332 meters.

William had no intention of challenging this record; the other person was a professional, while he was just dabbling in it.

But as Italy diver Marberto Piliszli said, "Freediving is entering another world, without gravity, without color, without sound; it's a long jump into the soul."

It was truly a long jump of the soul. When William first tried it, he probably "jumped" at the bottom of the lake for several hours before floating to the surface.

That night, the entire school was searched, and efforts were made to retrieve the items from various locations.

When the professors found William, he was completely swollen, almost to the point of Giant...

After that, before each dive, William would steal a few Gillyweed from Professor Snape to prevent himself from drowning again.

William's greatest enemy was the Merpeople of the Black Lake. When they saw him, they would swarm him like madmen, as if they had encountered an enemy.

William hadn't yet repaired his relationship with the Merpeople, so he had no choice but to attack them as well.

After many battles, he became familiar with the Merpeople's tactics, which were limited to the same three moves over and over again, and he was not even as strong Centaur.

However, the Merpeople chieftain's trident was very troublesome, and he almost killed him several times.

Since it's a time loop, William doesn't need to cultivate a good relationship with the other party. He plans to sneak in and steal the trident, but the other party discovers him beforehand.

William thought he had done everything perfectly, but the other party always managed to find out exactly what he was doing, which was really strange!

William swam in Black Lake for about six months, learning all sorts of swimming styles.

Occasionally, he would bring Hermione along, but the girl always made excuses, saying she didn't bring a swimsuit... and refused to go in.

The 800th time loop.

William started Fight Club at Hogwarts.

The name comes from a movie William watched in his previous life called Fight Club.

However, the two are completely different.

The club in the movie was founded to vent their frustrations through fighting. Later, as more and more people joined the Fight Club, fighting was no longer enough for them, so they started causing large-scale destruction.

William had no intention of boxing and then carrying out terrorist attacks.

The professors at the school are all in poor health.

Although William was only thirteen years old, his physical strength and power were far superior to those of the average person due to his training in rock climbing and scuba diving.

If it were a purely close-quarters fight without magic, William could take on ten Snape.

Of course, if the professor were to use biological weapons, William would be unable to defend himself.

Snape only needed to flick his hair, sending out a large amount of dandruff, along with the strong fermented smell of "sun-dried for 180 days," to naturally gain an invincible advantage.

William organized Fight Club, similar to a combat sports tournament. He was eager to see how the various professors would fight each other.

I'll also have a friendly competition with them.

William and Dumbledore clashed many times in the time loop.

However, William knew by heart what kind of magic his opponent would use after fighting for a long time. He could go back alone and slowly find countermeasures, and then fight again the next day.

Such "cheating" behavior creates the illusion that "I have anticipated the opponent's moves" or "I am evenly matched with the opponent."

But in real combat, there's no such thing as being able to rewind time.

William needs to play against different people to improve himself.

However, getting professors involved is no easy task.

For example, Professor Snape was not interested in such things.

William told Snape that if he became number one, he would give up the right to use the dragon, and the professor immediately agreed.

Professor Flitwick was easily persuaded; after all, he was a fighting tournament champion and had long wanted to show his prowess and prove his strength.

William will also get involved and fight against the teachers.

He's become quite skilled at Nonverbal Spellcasting.

Learning Nonverbal Spell requires a great deal of focus and willpower, which was easy for William.

Soon, the 1,500th cycle ended!

William wanted to leave.
