Chapter 103: 105
Chapter 105 Thought Operation Transformation Method
12/17/20, Thursday evening.
As Christmas approaches, the little witch seems to be getting impatient. She can't take school seriously and her thoughts seem to be wandering outside.
The same goes for evening self-study, these past few days evening self-study has been filled with noisy arguments, even Hufflepuff students are no exception.
Some students were excitedly discussing where their parents would take them for Christmas, what delicious food would be prepared at home, and what gifts their friends and relatives would give them.
But the joy only belonged to the other little witches, Lam Ha and Draco were both in a hurry.
Although they no longer need to immerse themselves in the laboratory to research topics, there are more important things waiting for them, which are even busier than being in the laboratory.
Hermione quietly ran to the Hufflepuff lounge, she wanted to find Lin Xia and Draco, to exchange news with them.
Draco's roommate Robin said: "You're late, it wasn't long before the two of you went out."
Hermione asked: "Where are they going? If they come back soon, I'm willing to wait."
Toure interjected: "Don't wait, they didn't stay in the lounge during evening self-study during the morning break, they went to another professor's place to receive private tutoring, it seems like they wanted to complete some of the professor's justice."
Robin nodded and said: "Yes, Draco always sleeps at night when he first comes back."
Hermione said reluctantly: "Okay."
She left the Hufflepuff common room, thinking about this again.
For some reason, she felt like she was getting further and further away from Lam Ha and Draco. Before, she was clearly confident that she could take the lead, but now, why was she getting further and further away from catching up?
While she was still helping Harry and Ron solve the case, Draco and Lam Ha were also receiving private tutoring from the professor.
Hermione held the small chalk, secretly gritting her teeth, this Christmas holiday she must definitely arrange very rich, definitely bought the second year textbooks as well, prepare the lessons in advance.
Waiting for the new semester to start, she also wants to reach the standard of being able to help the professor!
On the other side, Lam Ha also did not know that Hermione secretly had great ambitions.
She was in Professor Ottey's office, receiving her private tutoring.
Just during the day, she had just taken the dark magic defense class of Professor Ottey Hafati, and was praised by the professor for her precise casting posture.
But in the evening when she was tutoring alone, she was not so smooth.
Lam Ha used the wand in his hand to transform the stone into a badger, using his mind to sketch out a complex magic circle.
As long as this magic array is successfully drawn, a strand of consciousness will automatically separate and enter the transformed item, achieving the effect of "Using consciousness to manipulate the transformed object".
After a long while, the badger once again turned into a stone.
Obviously, her attempt to draw the magic circle with her mind failed.
Professor Ottey took a sip of red tea and said, not surprisingly: "When you wanted to study with me, I told you first that this 'mental manipulation transformation method' is not that easy to learn.
You have practiced with me for three days. According to the agreement, if within a week you cannot sketch out the magic pattern array in your mind and separate a single strand of consciousness to transform into a shapeshifting object, then you will forever lose the opportunity to learn this skill."
The "concept of transformation operation method" was not something that Professor Ottey thought of himself, but rather learned from his teacher.
This kind of seemingly very advanced transformation technique is far from something that one person could come up with, but rather requires several generations of continuous improvement and perfection before it can reach perfection.
Professor McGonagall herself thought of the transfiguration routine, but only gave the transfiguration object a fixed action.
But Professor Ottey's technique is to give the transformed object the intellectual mind, equivalent to being another clone of the wizard.
At the same time, the witch can also extract consciousness at any time.
When the witch sends out the transformed item to investigate, if it senses danger, it can actively cause the magic circle to scatter, using this as a means to escape.
After that, even if the transformed item was damaged, the witch would not suffer any damage, at most his spirit would be a little bad, but he could recover.
However, this sorcery is not without its drawbacks, one being that the difficulty of entry is too high.
Moreover, if we really encounter danger, whether or not our consciousness can escape in time is also uncertain.
When encountering urgent danger, the consciousness often cannot react in time, or even detect the danger, leading to the transformed item being damaged, thus causing the consciousness attached to the surface to also suffer serious injuries, causing backlash.
There are witches who use this technique, one carelessly, very likely to make a fool of themselves.
Therefore, this "mind-controlled transformation" witchcraft is classified as an advanced transformation technique, and is also classified as a "Forbidden Magic" by Hogwarts.
As a first year wizard, even if he obtained the Hogwarts Distinguished Student badge, he would still be unable to come into contact with this kind of advanced witchcraft.
At least go to the academy path, she can not gain.
So Lin Xia went through Dean Sprout's personal relationship path, and coincidentally, the Dean's relationship with Professor Ottey was not bad.
Professor Ao Di was willing to give her a chance to test her. As long as Lin Xia could pass the test, she would not hold back and teach her the "Mind Manipulation Transformation Technique".
But if Lin Xia cannot pass the test, then Professor Ottey will definitely not teach another half step.
Lam Ha calmed down and tried again.
This witchcraft is a great test of a person's spiritual power. Her spiritual power is much stronger than that of a young witch of the same age. She is finally a second-generation human.
But because they are still in the process of developing, they are still behind adult witches.
She could already sketch out half of the magic circle in her mind, but she couldn't sketch out the next half either. Often, when it came to the very end, her mental strength was a bit insufficient.
It's not that it can't be done, but that one's strength doesn't allow it. This is purely a matter of one's strength not being strong enough to do so.
Try again, still end in failure.
Professor Ottey waited patiently until the bell urging the little witch to sleep rang, then she said: "Lin Xia, you should go back and rest."
Although today was still a failure, Lam Ha had found the reason, his expression was very calm.
She politely said: "Thank you professor for your guidance today."
Professor Ottey saw that this little witch was sincerely thanking her.
To tell the truth, she had taught at Hogwarts for many years and had met quite a few arrogant and genius students who had asked her to learn this magic.
But these students all failed without exception.
Even Professor Ottey himself had made thorough preparations beforehand, gathering information from all aspects, deliberately increasing his mental strength, and using his peak adult wizard state to successfully challenge within seven days.
Professor Ottey was also called a genius when she was a student. Her talent was not bad, but even she was not confident during her student days.
Among the many students who came to learn, Lin Xia's attitude was the best.
She also saw that Lam Ha was not unable to draw the magic formation, but rather had insufficient mental strength!
If the complex magic circle cannot be drawn, the transformed object will disintegrate even faster.
But Lam Ha was different, the time she maintained her transformation was getting longer and longer, from the first day of training she could only maintain it for one minute without disappearing, to now she could maintain it for five minutes without disappearing, she was always improving.
This made Professor Ottey feel good about her and couldn't help but feel a little satisfied.
She is only a freshman, but to be able to do this step is truly considered an extraordinary talent.
"Wait," Professor Ottey called Lin Xia back, pondered for a moment, and said: "I can feel that you are not unable to sketch out a magic array, but rather your mental strength is insufficient.
You are too young, even if your mental strength is far beyond that of your peers, you are still too young, the urgent matter now is to improve your mental strength."
Professor Ottey made up his mind and said, "Then, in the next few days, you can use the medicine to temporarily increase your mental power and see if you can reach the level of initiation. If you can complete the temporary increase, then I will continue to teach you."
She is not an old-fashioned person, she must die to obey the rules.
If it was a little bit different, she wouldn't say that.
But just one step away from entering, Professor Ottey was also willing to help Lin Xia make a little bad score.
Lin Xia originally thought of a way to pull some goat hair from Quirrell to increase his mental strength.
She also fell into a wrong mindset, not thinking that her mental power could be temporarily increased through medicine.
She gratefully said to Ottey: "Thank you, professor."
Professor Ottey waved his hand: "It's also because you've met the conditions, hurry back to the dormitory!"
...
Another potion class.
With only two days left until Christmas, the little witch was completely agitated.
Compared to the other little wizards who were eager to go home, Harry was not at all eager.
On the morning of the 10th, Professor McGonagall came to register the list of students attending the New Year's Eve party, and Harry immediately signed up.
He did not feel miserable at all, and even felt that this was the best Christmas he had ever had in his life.
Not only did he keep them, Ron and his twin brother also kept them, the reason was that the Weasleys wanted to go to Romania to visit their second child Charlie.
"To tell the truth, I really feel sorry for some people." In Potions class, a Slytherin student said loudly, "They have no choice but to stay at Hogwarts over Christmas, because their families don't need them!"
Several Slytherin students were snickering, looking towards Harry.
In school there are people who worship Harry, naturally there are also people who hate him.
He looks so ordinary, his performance in class is normal, except for that bit of broomstick flying talent.
But just relying on a broom, how can one defeat the mysterious person?
Some little wizards feel that Harry is a good-looking guy, some feel that Harry is hiding his talent and strength, saying he can do whatever he wants.
No matter what, these little wizards don't like Harry, especially the Slytherin wizards.
They couldn't stand it, Harry this legendary hero was so ordinary, he even refused to borrow the power of many noble families, and made friends with the poor Weasley and Muggles!
So when they were in school, they loved to see Harry embarrassed the most, and when they caught him, they laughed.
Harry expressionlessly measured the magic powder and rubbed it on his spine, ignoring them. The more these people paid attention, the more they jumped.
"So, this is the Slytherin style, taking advantage of the professor's absence to humiliate the student's family?"
Draco was crushing his spine with powder, his mood was a bit rough.
These past few days his mood has been very bad, he is in special training at the dean's place, but he is making slow progress.
This made him really worried, afraid that this time he wouldn't be able to participate in the action together with Lam Ha.
One slow step, one slow step.
The opportunity was given to him, but he did not grasp it well, this is too tragic.
Draco opened his mouth to mock him without any hesitation: "If this is the Slytherin style, then I am actually very lucky that I didn't join. Is this your academy's style of being arrogant and conceited?"
What happened?
Snape walked in from the classroom and just heard Draco say that sentence. His gloomy eyes shot over.
Draco calmly replied: "Nothing, professor, just teaching a few insolent little worms a lesson."
