Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 126: Professor McGonagall’s shapeshifting magic

The classroom used by the Transfiguration Club was enlarged at some point by magic.

Professor McGonagall is standing in the middle of the classroom, waving his wand to show everyone a variety of shape-shifting magic, dazzling everyone present.

Manipulate fire, control water flow, shoot dangerous bolts of lightning from your wand, turn floors into swamps, churning mud to bind foes, or turn into barriers to protect yourself from oncoming spells.

As Albert wrote in his essay, Transfiguration has a myriad of bizarre uses, and when used at the right time, it can often produce unexpected and miraculous effects.

Not only Albert, but everyone else in the classroom is fascinated by Professor McGonagall's magic.

However, when everyone suddenly woke up, they found a big problem. If they want to reach the level of Professor McGonagall, they need to master more advanced spellcasting skills, and no one present can.

Yes, none of them, much less.

Professor McGonagall is now showing you how to turn objects into creatures and manipulate them well.

Water poured out of the basin, and under the control of Professor McGonagall, it stood upright like a winding python.

In the blink of an eye, the water in the basin disappeared, and there was only a python left. It opened its mouth and spit out a slight noise, crawled out of the basin, and wrapped around a table according to Professor McGonagall's command, and the python suddenly disappeared. , all that remains is the cage that binds the table.

If you are a wizard, if you are caught, you will basically have to accept your fate!

Professor McGonagall waved her wand, and the cage trapping the table turned back into a pool of water, splattering the ground.

"You can do this with fire, water, mist, or dirt," Professor McGonagall said. "I know, smoke spells were taught in Defence Against the Dark Arts."

"Professor McGonagall, I don't think the enemy will give us time to prepare," a Slytherin student reminded.

"I know." Professor McGonagall said, looking around. "It's usually not useful in a duel with wizards, but sometimes it works."

Professor McGonagall raised her wand with one finger, and countless ropes trapped the Slytherin wizard and bound it to his seat.

The next moment, the rope suddenly exploded into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.

"Wizards rarely duel, and even if they do face-to-face, they won't show dueling etiquette unless you participate in a duel competition." Professor McGonagall said calmly, "Defeat each other and protect yourself, this is when you are in danger. the correct course of action."

After she finished speaking, she picked up her wand slightly. From the original pool of water marks, two kittens made of water crawled out, and they were playing with each other.

Then, the two cats collided and merged into a small cheetah, running around behind everyone's back, and their sharp eyes swept across their backs, causing everyone to break into a cold sweat.

Under the control of Professor McGonagall, the cheetah split into two humanoid figures again. They picked up the wooden barrel that was knocked over by the python on the ground, jumped into the barrel, and turned back into a basin of water.

After the presentation, the classroom burst into applause.

Professor McGonagall raised her hand to signal everyone to keep quiet, and she said to all the members of the club, "How many spells have I used just now, how did I do it, and how much can I do if it were you? ?"

Everyone started chatting and talking, and asking three questions in a row was undoubtedly a difficult problem for most people.

Many people don't even think about these things when they watch Professor McGonagall demonstrate magic.

Right now, all I can do is rack my brains to figure out the answer.

"How much do you understand." Field exchanged the notes he had written with Albert. After she saw the contents of Albert's note, she was surprised to find that the other party's understanding of magic was not much worse than her own.

"Those shape-shifting magics are too difficult for me now." Albert secretly estimated that he would have to upgrade the shape-shifting spell to level 3 to be able to use shape-shifting magic like Professor McGonagall.

"It seems that he had already thought about these issues when he wrote that paper." Field didn't change on the surface, but he was very surprised.

"Where's Baker?" she asked again.

"The situation on my side is similar to yours." Baker is very depressed. Although he has tried hard to observe, his harvest is still very limited.

Originally, everyone thought they were the best in Transfiguration, and their papers were occasionally published in Transfiguration Today magazine.

However, after seeing Professor McGonagall's magic demonstration, they suddenly felt that the shapeshifting magic they were using was like a child waving a wand at random.

"You guys need to figure out how I did it, and if it was you, I could do it to the same extent." Professor McGonagall strolled around the classroom, checking the contents of everyone's notes, and the result was not clear. How satisfying. She continued: "I never expect you to fully understand, but you need to know a small part, and study it when you go back, I believe you will gain something, and it will still be this topic next time. Well, today That's it."

"It's really hard this time, it's harder than everything before." After the Transfiguration Club was over, when everyone emerged from the portrait ~IndoMTL.com~ Baker told Albert in dejection, "I feel this The Transfiguration for a while has been learned in vain."

"It's not as serious as you said." Albert comforted: "The gap between us and Professor McGonagall is experience.

"It's not just a matter of experience." Field shook his head. "I don't know when I'll be able to reach that level."

"For me, it's just poor experience." Albert couldn't help muttering in his heart.

"You wrote that paper, I'm curious how far you can do it?" It was Isobel who had not left.

The Ravenclaw genius looked at Albert with a complicated look, and she never thought that the other party would publish his article on "Transfiguration Today" so quickly.

"Have you ever heard of the high-mindedness, I am one of them." Albert said solemnly, "Actually, I am also very curious as to why Professor McGonagall chose to publish my paper."

"Don't underestimate yourself, your paper is of a high standard, Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall said, "What did you gain this time?"

"I found out that Transfiguration can be played like this." Albert sighed deeply, "Unfortunately, many people are not good at Transfiguration."

"You're right." Professor McGonagall said, "I suggest you talk to other experts in this field, so that you can improve your skills in this area."

"Oh! I will." Albert nodded and watched Professor McGonagall leave.

"Looks like the rumors are correct," Baker said.

"What rumor?" Albert asked curiously.

"Everyone says you're Professor McGonagall's best student," Field reminded.

"Why don't I know?" Albert asked in confusion.

Several people couldn't help looking at each other when they heard the words.
