Hogwarts Outsider Chapter 154: Change
? Draco Malfoy swung his wand and poked the little stick on the ground hard.
Unfortunately, there was no response.
"Akus...Akus...Akus..." He looked a little anxious, poked very hard, and at the same time shouted——
As a result, I used too much force and accidentally poked the wand on the ground. Sparks burst out from around the small wooden stick, and it flew into the sky at the same time.
Vincent Crabbe seemed to feel that this scene was somewhat familiar. He reacted quickly and took a few steps back hastily.
As a result, the small wooden stick with sparks fell directly on Gregory Goyle's head...
Then, a stench of burnt hair could be smelled in the air.
"Ah..." Goyle let out a scream, and then patted his hair in embarrassment.
If it wasn't for the help of Professor "Snape", poor Goyle might have experienced the taste of "Mediterranean" at a young age.
……
"Failed, right?" Professor "Snape" said calmly, "Theoretically speaking, this small wooden stick is almost the same size as a normal match; There is almost no difference...but you can turn a match into a needle, but you can't turn it into a needle..."
As he spoke, he stood on tiptoe and began to break off a withered twig again to make a new stick.
"Some people think it's okay to be transformed, because in most cases, it doesn't have enough practical effect for them... For example, when he wants a needle, he has to buy a box of matches first... ...then the question is, why not just go and buy a box of matches?" Professor "Snape" continued.
Except for Malfoy and Goyle, the rest of the students couldn't help laughing.
"But in fact, they didn't study well..." Professor "Snape" didn't smile, his expression was very serious.
Putting the newly made small wooden stick on the ground, he drew out his wand and pointed it at the ground:
"Akus!"
His voice was very clear.
The shape and structure of the small stick on the ground began to change little by little.
After a few seconds, a silver needle appeared there.
……
Looking at the silver needle on the floor, Matthew froze there.
The first thing he thought of was the battle between Gellert Grindelwald and the black witch Morgana a few months ago—
Grindelwald very easily "lived" the statue in Hogwarts Castle to fight for him... Maybe it is also "transfiguration"!
"Transfiguration is different from other magics. Ordinary spells can be flexibly used in many places just through classroom learning..." Professor "Snape" continued, "But Transfiguration is different. , The rigid transformation magic can only make you cope with the exam in front of you... If you want to really use it in practice, you must learn to create!"
Professor "Snape" was so loud that even Crabbe and Goyle seemed very interested in it at this moment.
"Professor, how did you do it?" Theodore Knott asked with great interest.
Professor "Snape" did not answer directly, but explained: "Please remember, transformation is not from class four, its core is 'change'... The premise of transformation needs to be in the mind, Construct your own personal reality...whether spells or skills are just a medium! A truly powerful wizard can cast magic as he wants without spells or even wands!"
"Yes, it must be your own; only when you find the real reality, in terms of transformation, can you barely get started."
Professor "Snape" shrugged and said: "Of course, in terms of deformation, my personal level is actually average, and I just barely reached the threshold of entry... So if there are students who want to go further, then I can There is nothing you can do... But don't be too ambitious, even if it is just getting started, it is very, very difficult!"
……
Malfoy and the others were enthusiastic at first, but soon entered the stage of "listening to the heavenly scriptures".
They could understand every word Professor "Snape" said, but once connected together, it became a mess.
Harry Evans was the same, but he didn't directly show his boredom and irritability on his face like Malfoy and the others.
As for Matthew, in fact, he is not much better.
It was also listening to the scriptures, he could barely understand 20 to 30% more... And the so-called comprehension was just realizing a little bit of it.
Professor "Snape" didn't care, even though Malfoy and Nott were already whispering about Quidditch, he didn't say a word... What he seemed to enjoy more was the fun of class.
"Think about the purpose of your transformation, whether you want to change the structure of matter, or change their essence... The complexity of transformation lies in this, structure and essence, two different manifestations, they seem to be the two sides of a long river , we are always drifting in it ~IndoMTL.com~ but can't reach the two sides..."
"... If we want to change the structure of matter, then the magic we need to use must be broken, acting on every part of the matter, so that every part will change... And if we want to change the essence, then Magic must be continuous and unified..."
"This is a very profound question. Structure and essence are mutually exclusive and opposed to each other... In traditional thinking, the two are irreconcilable... and the real answer depends on your heart , which is your personal reality..."
Professor "Severus Snape" finally stopped his bible, and Matthew suddenly felt a little pain in his head... as if his brain was not enough.
"Okay," said Professor "Snape", and at the same time let a few students who had deserted to focus again, "Now let's try it out, let's start with the simplest answer, matches and needles... ...You can choose some wood at will, make a small wooden stick about the size of a match, and then try your spell to see if it works."
Professor "Snape" seemed a little tired from his lectures.
He sat down under the willow tree before, and then "changed" a bottle of pumpkin juice from the suitcase to quench his thirst.
And Matthew began to put it into practice——
He quickly made a small wooden stick and placed it in front of him.
Take out your wand and aim it.
Matthew softly groaned: "Akus!"
