Chapter 395: Animal Transformation (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Collections, Asking for Tickets)
Ryan woke up late the next morning, so when he walked into the dining room, he was surprised to find that Umbridge, who must have been there every morning, had disappeared, and the table was charred and black.
"What's going on?" Ryan asked Neville next to him as he sat down. "What happened today, I see you guys are excited. ”
"Look at this. Neville excitedly stuffed a tightly rolled October issue of "Singing Against Tune." Unfolded, Ryan discovers that the cover is the one he had prepared, showing Fudge and Umbridge kissing through the crack in the door. At that time, he and Hermione were kissed more than ten times by Rose Crystal's command for this photo, and their lips were swollen.
In addition to this, there is a row of large red letters on the photo: Umbridge and Fudge's secret office romance, what does this mean?
This must have worked with the previous photos, Ryan thought. No wonder Umbridge's seat was scorched, the Ministry of Magic must have offended a group of people by doing so, and they would have taken this opportunity to send a shouting letter to the two parties to vent their anger. Umbridge probably took too many yelling letters before she ran away.
Of course, Umbridge's counter-attack was swift. Before noon, huge notices were plastered all over the school, not only on the college bulletin boards, but also in the hallways and classrooms. The High Hogwarts Inquisitor ordered any student found to be in possession of the magazine Contradictory to be expelled immediately.
"It seems that the Ministry of Magic doesn't know how to fight public opinion at all. After reading the notices, Ryan said to Hermione. "In this case, using the expulsion to intimidate people into not reading these news is actually the stupidest option, because it will make everyone subconsciously think that the news is true, and no matter how much they try to defend it, no one will believe it. And the more you try to ban it, the faster the rumor spreads. ”
"So this time we succeeded. For Hermione, who has always been a good person, it was very exciting for her to be a part of such an event, and at the same time there was an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
"Yes, we succeeded. Ryan nodded and said, "Hopefully this will make that toad quiet." ”
By the end of the day, as they had expected, Ryan had not even seen a single corner of "Singing Against Tune" at school, but it seemed that the whole school knew about it. Whether it's in the hallway, in the classroom, or in the auditorium at mealtime. There was a whisper of these photos everywhere. Hermione even told Ryan that there were people talking about the pictures in the bathroom cubicles today.
"The wizards' spare time is still too boring, and these pictures of ours are just the right thing to spice them up. And I heard Percy say that this Umbridge is also very popular in the Ministry of Magic, and after these situations are combined, it doesn't matter if it's really on the photo anymore, everyone just needs this as a channel to vent their emotions. Look, even if we don't care about it, it's going to get bigger and bigger. Finally Ryan concluded.
As expected, the Daily Prophet in the past few days has seen that Fudge is so anxious about these photos that serious conflicts have broken out in his home. According to some of his classmates, who work at the Ministry of Magic, Fudge has been living in the office for days on end.
"You know what? My dad said the issue was a huge hit, and he had already printed two more batches this week. Luna told everyone at the weekend book party. He couldn't believe there was more popular content than the Scimitar Snorkel. ”
"Maybe it's because the news is as true and reliable as the scimitar-horned snorer, that's why it attracts so many people. Ryan and Hermione looked at each other and smiled. There was also the sound of the Weasley brothers laughing.
After the photo incident came to an end, at Hermione's insistence, Ryan began to focus on instructing Hermione in her animal transformation. Ever since Ryan had demonstrated privately how to transform into a giant panda in the Sirius family's ancestral home in Grimmauld Place, Hermione had suddenly become intrigued by the magic.
This transfiguration was developed by Ryan after combining the magic of the shapeshifters in The Lord of the Rings with the natural magic of the Nymph, and he found that he had mastered this animal transfiguration technique more powerful than that of Animagus. However, in common with the Animax, the wizards themselves could not choose what kind of animal this magical transformation would be.
For example, the Animagus can only transform into normal animals, and the animals conjured up by this new transfiguration are much more powerful than normal animals, and can even be considered some kind of magical creature. At least after Ryan turned into a panda, he found that his magical defense and physical defense were no different from those of giants. Far more practical than most Animagus.
"Attention! The core of this magic is to awaken your inner spirit. Let your heart connect with nature as a whole, and then go with that feeling. Nature will give you a way to free your inner soul from resonance with nature. Ryan shouted to Hermione, sitting on a tree stump, sitting in the magic circle. They are now in the Forbidden Forest, and today is the night of the full moon, and the outdoors on the night of the full moon is also the most recommended day of transfiguration.
"Hermione, concentrate and follow the transformation process I taught you!" Ryan pointed to the magic circle beneath Hermione with the ring, "I'll help you!"
It was 12 midnight, and a Quenya spell poured out of Ryan's mouth. The unquenchable fire contained in the ring slowly flowed out and enveloped Ryan's arm. With the wave of his arm, a large amount of magic power poured out of his body, instantly lighting up the runes on the magic array.
If someone were standing next to them at this time, they would be able to see a very magical scene.
Like Ryan's first transformation, he saw Hermione glow from the inside out, echoing the moonlight. As the moonlight shone brightly, Hermione began to tremble. At the same time, the muscles, skin, and even the hair on the body are deformed and trembling at a high frequency. It looks like a slime, and its entire body is rapidly deforming, softening, and getting smaller and smaller.
"It doesn't feel like the last time I did, I was inflated all the time. Ryan thought as he looked at Hermione, who was rapidly transforming, but his hands didn't stop infusing the magic circle with natural magic
This deformation process is extremely uncomfortable, as if every cell in the body is being pricked with needles. But Hermione gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound, no matter how painful her body was.
The transformation also quickly consumed the magic power in her body, but no matter how much it was consumed, it was quickly replenished by the magic array under her, and in the process, her body also changed rapidly.
"This is ......" Evan looked at Hermione in front of her, as if she had become a different animal than herself, not a very large animal.
In the blink of an eye, Hermione's body completely transformed, officially completing her first animal transformation.
Her transformation process went smoothly, and in theory the magic required the magic of an adult wizard and a sufficient sense of nature to be learned. As for Hermione's ability to do it, it may have something to do with the fact that her body had been strengthened before. At the same time, it is also because she has a very solid foundation when learning this knowledge, and she can correctly release her inner spirit.
Standing in front of Ryan now was a rare feline, somewhat resembling a leopard, but much smaller than a leopard, with playful black tufts of hair on its ears.
"Ryan, what have I become?" asked the feline in front of him, and from this voice you could faintly hear Hermione's voice, only slightly sharper. This is where this metamorphosis is superior to the Animagus: it can still speak in human language after being transformed into an animal.
"I think you've turned into a lynx, and you look pretty good. Ryan said with a smile.
