Chapter 31: Turning Matches into Steel Pins
"Transfiguration is the most complex and dangerous spell you'll ever encounter in Hogwarts class, and anyone who wants to be mischievous in my class will be asked to go out and never let him in. I warned you. After warning her students, Professor McGonagall drew her wand and turned her lectern into a pig in full view.
Love's eyes narrowed.
The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. After a summer of study, Love, compared to his peers, was already an expert in Transfiguration, so he could fully understand the difficulty of Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration.
Professor McGonagall's transformation is very difficult to turn a large dead thing into a large living thing. Considering the extremely high degree of restoration of this transformation, Love can only be said to be worthy of being a master of transformation, and he is extraordinary as soon as he makes a move.
He estimated that the operation of turning the lectern into a pig, if he let himself come, would require at least a third-level transformation technique, which he could not do at all at this stage. Optimistically, it will take a year of hard work to reach the threshold.
Looking at the big white pig that was snorting and smelling of pigs, Love wondered how long Professor McGonagall's metamorphosis would last, and if this kind of metamorphosis that transcended species and lived and died could last for a long time, it would be terrifying.
Obviously, Professor McGonagall's casual transformation did not last long, and after a few moments of careful observation of the pig, Professor McGonagall turned the podium back into applause.
Love's head was already full of questions: Was the internal structure of that pig pork or wood? Do pigs bleed like other pigs when they are injured? Will this pig behave like a normal pig? How long does Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration last?
These questions distracted him and he couldn't listen to the lecture properly.
But he wasn't worried, anyway, Hermione took notes, and those complicated and difficult things would be good to ask Hermione in the future.
After the theoretical part, it is the turn of practice. Professor McGonagall gave each of the young wizards a match and told them to try to turn it into a needle.
After the little wizards got the matches, they immediately practiced with great interest. It's just that unlike what they expected, the difficulty of Transfiguration is beyond their expectations, and when they cast the spell, they can clearly feel the resistance of the match, as if there is a force in the dark that maintains the form of the match, so that their spell cannot be effective.
Even Hermione, who made the fastest progress, could only make a slight change in her matches, and could not completely turn them into needles.
"Lend me a copy of the notes." He moved closer to Hermione, hoping to borrow her notes for reference.
Hermione:......
"What were you doing? Have you ever been taught? She asked through gritted teeth, seemingly transferring the anger of the match's failed transformation to the innocent Love.
"No, I'm thinking." Love spread his hands, and he was strong and unreasonable.
Professor McGonagall, a veteran teacher with decades of teaching experience, can see at a glance who is studying hard in the classroom and who is fishing and paddling, so Love-Moen, who has nothing to do and "harasses" the little girl who practices diligently, is as dazzling as ink spots on black paper in her eyes.
"Love, Moen!" She lifted her glasses and said in a stern tone, "How's your match?" ”
She secretly decided that it was time to take Love out and show the little ones what it would take to break the classroom discipline.
If Love's matches could not be changed, tragedy would befall him.
Professor McGonagall's voice echoed through the classroom, causing the class to look at Love.
"Uh, in good shape." Love glanced at the ten-percent new match and thought it couldn't be better.
After hearing Love's incoherent answer, the corners of Professor McGonagall's mouth twitched: "Mr. Moen, I should have said before that I would ask the mischievous person in my class to go out." Now let me see how you're doing with Transfiguration. ”
She stepped down from the podium and made her way to Love's table, where she waited quietly for Love to show her her match-shapers.
The classroom instantly became silent, and the coercion exuded by Professor McGonagall suffocated everyone, and they didn't dare to take a breath. It was hard for them to imagine what Love's state of mind would be like when he faced Professor McGonagall, but many felt that Love was going to suffer a little today.
What was Love thinking at this time?
He didn't think about anything.
He had already mastered this level of deformation technique in the summer vacation—praising the physical strength potion and intelligence potion, as well as the hundreds of millions of sweats he had paid.
Under the witch's gaze, he took out his wand and waved it according to a certain pattern. Eventually, Love's tip pointed at the match, and a small wisp of magic shot down the tip.
The magic came into contact with the match, trying to "shape" it into a steel needle, and then Love immediately felt the match's resistance to his magic, which was preventing the match from transforming into a steel needle.
Love had long been accustomed to this feeling, and his face did not change to intensify the magic output, and under his urging, the match slowly but surely began to deform, first fading the wood color to reveal a metallic luster, then gradually flattening one end, gradually sharpening the other, and after a few seconds, a steel needle with a metallic luster lay quietly on the table.
Professor McGonagall: ?
It wasn't quite what she expected!
After the successful completion of the transformation, Love did not show a happy look, as if he had completed a trivial matter. He put away his wand and felt the slow flow of mana in his body—maintaining the form of a needle consumes mana. Although the consumption is insignificant, it is also an essential difference.
It was indeed a trivial matter for Love, the short-term single transformation from a small dead object to a small dead object was originally the most basic transfiguration, and he had mastered this level of transfiguration for some time. Elementary school students may be pleasantly surprised by solving a binary equation, and high school students are still complacent about it, most likely because of some serious illness.
The surrounding students were all silent when they saw Love's performance, and from Love, they felt a little shock, and at the same time had an idea: Are they too stupid? Why hasn't my matches changed a little bit until now?
【Xueba:+50】
The students present and Professor McGonagall contributed a wave of academic excellence to Love.
"Great shapeshift, Gryffindor plus five points!" Professor McGonagall was the first to react, and she didn't hesitate to add five points to Gryffindor because of Love's excellent performance.
