When Ringo returned to his bedroom, the other three beds were empty.

He didn't care.

After washing, he lay on the bed and played with the rings—the nine platinum rings he had Sam make before he went to school.

The ring is an ordinary shape, but the surface is a thorn flower pattern outlined by lines, a total of four flowers, each with a tiny hole in the center.

— means four rooms can be expanded.

Of course.

The idea was good, but after barely mastering the Traceless Stretching Spell today, Ringo was a little difficult.

According to the law that he summarized today.

The fist-sized beaded pouch should outline the seed of the grain of rice, the canvas bag is four times the size, and the seed is nearly four times as inflated; But what about the ring holes? I'm afraid this thing is less than one percent of the beaded packet, and that kind of thing is difficult to outline......

And even not only seeds.

Even the strength is unimaginable, and I'm afraid that if it is a little bigger, the ring will be damaged.

"It's no wonder that the objects in the original book are not small bags, boxes, cars and tents, and there is no ...... smaller than beaded bags"

Just thinking about it.

There was a noise at the bedroom door, and the next moment the three Malfoys walked in.

Each of them had a wand in their hands, and they seemed to be exchanging spells before they came in, and the expressions on their faces were much more active than they had been in the previous two days.

But—

When they stepped into the dormitory, they subconsciously looked at Ringo's bed, but accidentally met Ringo's eyes.

But they froze again.

"Ringo ......"

Malfoy screamed and brushed the floor to hide his wand behind him, but when he did, he found that Crabbe and Goyle were still holding their wands in front of him, and he blushed in anger and immediately scolded, "Fool! Put your wand away! ”

Only then did the two followers realize that "we, we are just practicing...... Oh no, we're just learning little curses, not trying to do it to you. ”

"Yes!" Malfoy followed, "That's it. ”

How can there be a sense that there is no silver here?

Ringo smiled and said, "What are you afraid of me doing?" Didn't you say it a long time ago and put aside the controversy in the dormitory? Do you think I'm going to do it to you in the dorm? ”

"Of course you won't." The corners of Malfoy's mouth twitched slightly.

But under Ringo's watchful eye, they washed up and went to bed quickly, without any noise, like good students who were disciplined.

Until......

Crabbe and Goyle's snoring rang out one after another.

- "Fainted"

- "Fainted"

Ringo's two stun spells hit him, immediately reducing the noise to the initial stage, and then subconsciously aimed his wand at Malfoy.

But Malfoy hadn't slept yet.

He was looking at Ringo with a look of "say yes and don't cast a spell on us".

But obviously.

He didn't want an answer.

Because at the same time that Ringo looked over, Malfoy aimed his wand at him, and gave himself a stun spell before Ringo.

"Am I bullying children too much?"

Ringo was a little speechless: "But they are obviously discussing how to retaliate against me in private, so I don't overdo it." ”

So he also began to sleep.

It's just that there is already vigilance in my heart......

……

Ringo's vigilance turned into motivation.

Especially......

After experiencing the strange story of Malfoy's three fools also starting to delve into the study of spells, he secretly observed the others, and found that the first-year snakes were all like this, and they would disappear en masse at a fixed time and then return to the dorm at night.

A few days later, they looked back into their eyes.

There is not much fear.

Instead, disgust, disgust, jealousy, and hostility have taken over again.

Fortunately, Ringo was not idle.

For the next week, in addition to attending classes on time every day and occasionally going to Hagrid with Harry and Ron, he gave all his "energy" to Penelope and Hermione:

Former......

In addition to the so-called three weekly checks and revisions of the paper, it is more about communicating the changes of will that need to be made by the Traceless Stretch Mantra to act on different objects.

Ringo did not show the ring.

He just drew the size of the ring hole on the paper, and drew Penello's beaded bag with the help of a tool ruler, and after comparing the two sides, he determined the size of the seed that the ring hole should deal with.

After that, it's time to create a storage ring in the Room of Need.

I have to say......

It's too hard.

Even though Ringo has the talent to "keep improving", he still buried his head in the test for two days, during which he completely destroyed 5 rings, was knocked into the air more than 50 times, and suffered countless scratches on his body, and even almost broke his ribs on one occasion...... Fortunately, it finally worked.

But success is also very deformed, because the space of the ring hole is too small!

Each time Ringo carefully cast the spell, the inside of the ring hole only expanded to about one hundredth of a grain of rice......

Fortunately, as he became more and more proficient.

He finally managed to get a storage ring on Wednesday night with a single ring hole that was a cubic meter larger, and the entrance to the hole was fixed with the Enlargement Charm and the Shrinking Charm - this was a small trick, and there were books in the library - but due to Ringo's own magic problems, the effect was short-lived, and he had to re-fix it about once a day.

It's rough.

But it was barely enough - enough to squeeze in some anti-hunger snacks, pet food, galleons, film, cameras, bullets, a loaded pistol, and a second wand.

And Hermione's latter......

In fact, it is two "scholars" in the eyes of outsiders who drill into the library whenever they are free during the day.

But Hermione is learning.

Ringo writes Transfiguration papers.

He received a reply from Daisy on Saturday, and in addition to all kinds of affectionate greetings, it was the accompanying thing he asked for - the professional textbook alone was nearly a meter high, which could make the beautiful Hedwig so tired that she pecked him a dozen times in front of a group of lions cubs at the lion house table.

But it's worth it.

Because Muggle textbooks are the basis of the thesis - understanding the object of spellcasting and the object of transformation helps to form the Transfiguration routine.

In Ringo's view, traditional wizards practice transfiguration often only superficially understand objects, so the learning process will be extremely arduous, and even if they master the transformation of certain objects, in fact, only understanding is a small part, and the rest is solved by magic.

- This has led to an unusually rare number of Transfiguration masters.

The prerequisite for a traditional wizard to become a master of Transfiguration is often a lot of magic.

But if you follow Ringo's "routine".

Before deformation.

If you can fully understand the physical properties, chemical properties, internal structure, molecular structure, and even cellular structure of the object of casting and transforming the spell.

It doesn't take much magic.

Like two delivery workers:

One is a traditional wizard, who does not seek to understand the goods, and relies on great strength (magic) to produce miracles, how much magic is and how far the goods can be deadlifted; One is a trick wizard, who has a comprehensive understanding of the goods and knows how to use the characteristics of the goods, such as rolling wood, or adding leverage, and then only a small amount of force is needed to easily transport the goods.

i.e. Transfiguration = Understanding + Magic.

- When the deformation result of a single object is the same, the understanding is shallow and the magic power is required; Deep understanding requires little magic.

And as long as you have mastered the scientific knowledge of Muggles.

Each object can then have a list of corresponding attributes, and the new wizard can easily grasp the object's transformation by memorizing these lists to increase their understanding, and by showing his will when casting spells.

Of course......

This paper is very immature.

There are many places where the discussion is vague, such as the reason for "transformation = understanding + magic", and the specific role of magic in transfiguration, which Ringo himself does not know.

But it doesn't matter.

After all, Ringo is only a first-year freshman, and the field discussed in this paper is a completely new field, as a pioneer, he only needs to throw out the concept, and the refinement of the concept will be handed over to those "posterity".

In a word.

Ringo quickly completed his dissertation, which he titled "Analytic Transfiguration".

……

The second Thursday.

Lunch.

Under the gaze of countless curious eyes, Ringo used the levitation charm to surround himself with dozens of books, and with a pile of parchment in his hand, he knocked on the door of McGonagall's office: "Professor, are you inside?" I'm Shelby, and I'm done with my thesis. ”

Click-

It was a strange woman who opened the door.

She had white hair, but her skin was not flabby, and she held a wad of parchment in her hand like Ringo, but she was not in good spirits, her eyes were bloodshot, and her face was covered with oil.

"Mr. Shelby, have you finished writing your dissertation?" McGonagall's voice came from behind, "Thurkel, let this kid in." ”

The woman named Thurkel grumbled as she moved out of the way, "McGonagall, the time for the latest issue of the magazine to print is very close, you still have classes in the afternoon, only this time is noon to help me select and revise my papers, it is better not to be distracted." ”

"There's still time, Thurkel, haven't you closed your eyes in two days? Take a break here. ”

McGonagall soothed Seckel.

He motioned for Ringo to sit down, and at the same time took the paper and began to look at it.

"I can't sleep...... Although the number of these papers is sufficient, but the quality is too poor, if I am not sure about the manuscript before printing, then this issue is all review articles, of course, there have been many such things in the past, but McGonagall, you know, my performance in the last six months...... Alas! ”

Seckel sighed heavily, and suddenly looked at Ringo: "Kid, do me a favor, you leave first, and come back at night or other time, is it okay?" ”

Her tone was impatient.

But it was not a forceful drive, but a hint of a plea.

Ringo didn't want to be a villain, in fact, he regretted it when he walked through the door - obviously disturbing McGonagall's work.

Anyway, the matter of the paper is not in a hurry, this woman does not seem to have a bad relationship with McGonagall, and it seems that she is a magazine editor, so it is not bad to sell personal favors......

"Of course, ma'am, I'll leave."

As he spoke, Ringo got up from the couch and prepared to say goodbye to McGonagall.

But not before he could stand up.

McGonagall said suddenly, "No, Mr. Shelby, I don't think you can leave yet. ”

"Why?"

Before Ringo could speak, Seckel was the first to ask angrily.

"Because ......"

McGonagall was not angry, but handed the paper in her hand to Thurkel, with a smile of pride on her face: "Thurkel, I don't think you need to worry, this paper by Mr. Shelby may meet your needs." ”
