Chapter 255: The Law of Transformation (Part II) (Fourth Update)

PS: Last month's 2800 monthly pass was added

"Ulrick Gamp's time coincided with the end of the Goblin Rebellion, and in order to ease relations with the elves and maintain their coinage, it is understandable that he added money to his Transfiguration Law. ”

"And the goblins' currency is added with anti-counterfeiting magic, which is difficult for ordinary wizards to crack...... So it's true that Transfiguration can't work on money. ”

Dumbledore paused for a moment, then spoke slowly:

"The third point, and the most important point of the Gamp deformation law...... That's the conservation of matter and magic!"

"Mass Demon Conservation?" Jon blinked slightly.

"Yes, matter and magic are conserved, and the greater the change, the more complex the magic required......" Dumbledore nodded, "I can easily conjure a flower out of thin air, and I can easily conjure a needle into a match, but I can't conjure a mountain out of thin air, or a stone into a castle, or a mountain into a castle...... Because that would require too much change. ”

"Maybe a little overconfident, Jon ......" Dumbledore smiled suddenly, "but since I can't do it, I don't think any wizard in the world can do it." ”

"Conversely, the smaller and more similar the closer it is, the easier it is to shapeshift?" Jon continued.

"That's right, that's right!" Dumbledore nodded, then continued:

"Fourth, Transfiguration cannot be applied to the soul ......"

"Transfiguration can change the structure of matter, but not the soul...... For example, if one of your loved ones dies, you can transform something else or someone else into her form, but she will always be just a walking corpse. ”

"In the same way, for example, I turned Fawkes into a fire dragon...... Dumbledore saw the phoenix looking at him with some displeasure, and quickly added: "Of course, it's just a metaphor......"

“...... But she will still be the soul of a phoenix, if she transforms for a short time, there will be no problem, and if she is transformed for a long time, then she will have two endings, usually she will die because she does not adapt to her new body, and there is a very small probability that she will slowly twist into a magical animal between a fire dragon and a phoenix......"

"The latter is the creation of a new kind of magical creatures, such as Hagrid's 'Fried Snails' last year, so the vast majority of magical beasts are formed by Transfiguration, including some wizards...... This is also strictly forbidden. ”

"Therefore, the transformation time of animal transfiguration must be strictly controlled...... The exception is only one Transfiguration, which has been hailed as the crowning achievement of Transfiguration......"

"Animagus?" Jon asked softly.

"That's right...... Animagus will make the soul of a wizard perfectly combine with the body of an animal......" Dumbledore nodded, "So it's very, very complicated, dangerous, and requires a bit of luck......"

"Luck?" Jon asked, surprised.

"Yes...... I, for example, lack such a little luck!" Dumbledore said with a serious face, "I am destined to be an Animagus, and I was sad for a long time at the age of fifteen. ”

"Why?" Jon asked, a little hoarse, "because your Patronus is ......"

"Yes...... The form of Animagus is sometimes related to the Patronus, because the animals revealed by the Patronus are the things with the highest affinity with wizards!" Dumbledore shook his head regretfully: "And my Patronus is a magical animal, and using a magical beast is a very risky thing for Animagus, because the soul of a magical animal is much more complex than ordinary animals, and it is difficult for a wizard to continue to control the body after becoming a magical animal......"

"There have only been two cases in history of Animagus being wizards of Fantastic Beasts, but their Animagus forms are cats and dogs...... Although they are magical beasts, they are all very small compared to ordinary animals, and my magical beasts are phoenixes, and their souls are even more complex than wizards, so it is almost impossible for me to do it!"

"And what about choosing other animals instead of a Patronus?" Jon continued.

"I'm afraid I'm not stupid......" Principal Phineas-Black's voice came again: "Choose a completely unfamiliar animal body, and there is only one ending, that is, the soul is torn in half when you transform for the first time!"

Sensing that the eyes of the entire office were on him, Phineas Black's face changed slightly.

"I'm asleep!" he shouted as the rest of the principals stared at him, and then quickly covered his face with his hands.

However, this did not seem to stop more than a dozen principals from surrounding them...... The scene was a bit miserable at one point.

"Phineas is right!" Dumbledore nodded solemnly.

Jon bit his lip, then sighed.

"Let's move on to point five...... The fifth point is that Transfiguration cannot work on time!"

Dumbledore continued, "This is actually quite understandable, because the principle of metamorphosis is the conservation of mass and demons, including the existence of time. ”

"If you try to shorten the time, even for a short second, then all the souls in the world will be suppressed by that second and a moment...... No wizard could withstand the oppressive force for so long, his soul would be torn apart in an instant, and his magic would be rendered useless. ”

"In the same way, if you're trying to extend the time, even if it's just for a second...... All the time that souls in the world need must be deducted from you...... No wizard has ever had so much time. ”

"Hmm!" Jon nodded, and began jotting it down in his notebook.

......

Dumbledore continued to tell about Transfiguration, bits and pieces.

Jon listened patiently and took notes, but stopped asking questions.

"He doesn't seem to be in high spirits!" Principal Duris said with some apprehension, looking at the scene in front of him.

"Understandable......" Principal Christophe Evra nodded solemnly, then sighed.

"Hey, is there a knock on the door outside?" said Principal Armando Duppet, "I'll go out and have a look!"

He disappeared from the portrait -

Dozens of seconds later, he reappeared in the principal's office.

"Albus......" screamed Armando Duppet, "McGonagall and Potter are out there, they're looking for you, and that stupid stone won't let them come...... Potter was still yelling that he had seen Arthur Weasley attacked!"
