Chapter 521: Mandrake Leaves (Sincere thanks to the Alliance Leader for coming out of the mountain)

"It's like jumping into warm water. When the fat man entered the room, he couldn't help but sigh in comfort.

Soon, except for Luna, who was sleeping in the room, the members all gathered in the center of the living room, because they noticed the difference in the atmosphere, including Malfoy, who was brought over by Long Eye, did not sit on the sofa as usual, but consciously stood behind Allen, and their eyes were focused on Allen by the fireplace.

"Life in Durmstrang is not as exciting as it is on a mission. Alan looked around at the members of the Umbrella Squad, "You guys should be bored too, aren't you?"

"Master Allen, it's our job to protect you. "And I also enjoyed the quiet time. ”

"I thought it was a lot of fun, and being back in Durmstrang was like a vacation. The fat man scratched at the back of his head, a little worried about whether Alan had seen the mess he had with the students before.

"Master Allen, if you have something, just ask. "Four Eyes' voice was mechanical, but it was clear that her brain was the most flexible.

"I'm trying to find something for you to do and improve your strength. From what I've seen on the profile, none of you have yet to transform into Animagus. I think it's better to take advantage of this easier time and count it as a task for everyone to complete it. Allen's tone was light-hearted, as if discussing today's weather, and he assigns the Transfiguration Animagus as a task.

Malfoy on the side had an ominous premonition, although the members of the Harris family who joined the Harris family in the training class could also learn the transformation method of the Animagus, but because they had to complete their studies on weekdays, and the process was too cumbersome to pay attention to the preparations, they had to start again, even if the transformation method of the Animagus had been learned very well, but until now, no member had really tried it, and he himself had been entangled by the humiliation and the feeling of being transformed into a stoat by a fake Moody at the beginning of the last semester, so he had always been a little resistant to this animal's transformation ability, worried about his Animagus form.

"You all know something about the Animagus method that I have announced within my family that will almost certainly succeed, and I even have the means to turn wizards into magical creatures, like my Animagus Phoenix. It's just that, compared to the Animagus incarnation of ordinary animals, it has very strict requirements for wizard talents, and the requirements for magic power are also very high in addition to physical fitness, except for a very small number of geniuses among the geniuses, even if you are strengthened by what I promised you before, you can't meet the requirements in terms of magic, and if you forcibly change, it will only bring unknown results, and obviously this result is more likely to be bad. Alan was straightforward and honest to avoid any problems that could cause them psychological pimples later.

The collection in the tower is still enough to make a lot of attribute potions, but after the family has collected them for so long, they have only saved enough for two bottles, obviously Alan is not generous enough to use this precious thing to improve the magic power of these subordinates, he waited for these members to digest the previous introduction of magic Animagus, and added: "The most important thing is that this requires long-term matching to find magical creatures with a high enough fit...... My family hasn't been able to find a magical creature to match it so far, so while I'd like you to use your lazy time to complete the transformation into a normal creature of Animagus, I need to ask you about your personal wishes. ”

"Young Master Allen, you don't have to consume time and energy for us like this, it will take several years for ordinary people to train to become Animagus before they can turn people into their most suitable animals, and it is very likely that they will fail and cause irreparable effects. Before you, there were only seven Animagus registered in the twentieth century, so it's a remarkable thing that we can turn into a normal creature with almost 100% success. "The reason why we haven't done the transformation is because the family has provided us with so much knowledge, and we all preferred to choose the knowledge that can be quickly rewarded, and in addition, it took us a lot of time to complete the new training of the Aurors, which delayed the transformation of Animagus. ”

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Alan nodded, brushed his hand on the long table in front of him, and several packaged wooden boxes appeared on the table. "Here are the relevant materials I have prepared for you, take them and take action. ”

The wolf mother understood, put away her materials first, and opened it to see that there were mandrake leaves, crystal medicine bottles, and some grimace moth chrysalis.

Seeing that everyone had taken away their own materials, Alan advised, "During this time, you should focus on practicing Animagus." After all, it is not easy to hold the leaves of the mandrake in your mouth until the full moon, and you must not swallow the leaves or take them out of your mouth at any time, otherwise the whole process will have to start again. ”

Unlike the Animagus that has become a magical creature, the potion that is directly prepared through the blood of the creature, the difficulty of ordinary Animagus transformation is that it is very cumbersome, and even the preparation has a great element of luck, although there are improvements from the Black family, so that the preparation is no longer as strict as the original saves some time, and the success rate of transformation has also been qualitatively improved, but these troublesome processes are still unavoidable.

?“ Also, I'll be going to Karkaroff recently and asking him to give me the right to borrow as many books from the Durmstro Collection, and I'll be making copies of all the books we don't have while I study them, so I don't have time to keep an eye on you. So I must remind you that when the leaves of the mandrake in your mouths are after the full moon, take out the leaves, fill them with saliva in a crystal vial, soak the leaves in them, and let it receive pure moonshine. If you happen to be walking in the clouds that night, it's a shame you'll have to start all over again. Alan shrugged, wishing them the best of luck.

"Don't make a mistake with your hair and a silver teaspoon of dew in the moonlit crystal vial," Alan thought of how Hermione had mistaken cat hair for Pansy's hair when she deformed with Polyjuice Potion, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "And the dew, which must be collected from a place where there has been no sunlight or human contact for seven days." Finally, add a grimace moth's pupae and place the mixture in a quiet, dark place. Finally, every time sunset and sunrise, use your wand to your heart and say the incantation 'Amado, Animo, Animadol, Animagus', and when you continue to do so, at some point, notify me when the tip of the wand touches your chest and you get a second heartbeat, and I'll have Hermione's Thunderbird Cotton help create the stormy weather that transforms in. ”

The team members who were receiving their respective materials nodded, the biggest difficulty in transforming into Animagus was the weather, some people even waited for the storm to come for several years, and during this time, the crystal vial had to remain completely undisturbed and not in contact with the sun. Sunlight pollution would cause the worst of the mutations, turning careless wizards into unconscious but still alive puddles of blood, and Durmstrang's shortened days and sunless blizzards were a clear way to avoid them.

"Alan, I'm awake, didn't you say to take a sauna together? Did you pick up the birch branches, it really helps with hangovers?" Luna had apparently just woken up when a sound came from the room, a little dazed.

Everyone tried to pretend that they didn't hear, biting the tip of their tongues to keep themselves from laughing out loud to maintain Alan's decency.

"I've heard from the professors that it's good for hangovers, and you know, Luna is a little hard today, and I hope it helps. Although Alan was already blushing by the fireplace, he still put his hands behind his back and tried to explain why he did it, hoping that others would not misunderstand him.

The fat man coughed suddenly for a while, then scratched his head, "Master Allen, can you give me another mandrake leaf, I accidentally swallowed it just now." ”
