Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

Chapter 221 The difficult first step

Seeing himself standing opposite from Professor McGonagall, Wright was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.

Wright originally thought that in the magical world, apart from Polyjuice Potion, there was no other way to completely transform a person into another person.

But at this moment, everything that can be seen in appearance, including clothes, skin color, hair, eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, and even the most difficult to change height, voice, etc., the one standing in front of me is controlled by Professor McGonagall. The "Wright" transformed by the human body transformation technique, Wright was extremely sure that it was the version of himself he could see in the mirror every day.

Except for the slightly aged look in his eyes, Wright couldn't find anything wrong with Professor McGonagall's transformation.

The "dangerous" discipline of transfiguration finally showed its extremely sharp fangs at this moment!

Professor McGonagall looked at Wright quietly for a while. After his expression returned to normal, she returned to the Gryffindor headmistress wearing a simple gray robe and a bun.

This perfect transformation process, like water dyeing, was directly displayed in Wright's eyes.

"Of course, no one is willing to change themselves into another person for a long time if it is not necessary." Professor McGonagall said gently, "Not only for the person being transformed, but also for the person being transformed. It is a very bad deception. For wizards who actively use body transformation, maintaining the body transformation process for a long time is also very painful and unbearable. "

"And..." Professor McGonagall pursed her lips. She didn't know whether she should tell Wright the news. But considering the excellent transfiguration talent of the child standing in front of her, Professor McGonagall thought about it again and again, and finally said it.

"Moreover, human body deformation is different from Animagus deformation. Its potential social harm is very high." Professor McGonagall said, "A certain person's superb body deformation skills almost led to the Ministry of Magic of a country. An earth-shaking change took place, and the then Minister of Magic almost resigned because of this incident.”

"So, people now have deliberately done a lot of counter-tests on human body deformation. For example, the anti-thief waterfall under Gringotts has been added with this function." Professor McGonagall said to Wright solemnly, "Thousands of people Don't even think about breaking into such a heavily guarded location."

Wright twitched his lips secretly. In the eyes of Professor McGonagall, was he the kind of person who would break into Gringotts Bank, release the evil dragon, and cause chaos? He is a very qualified Ravenclaw, not an "overly brave" Gryffindor, okay?

Moreover, the person Wright recalled that Professor McGonagall mentioned should be referring to Dumbledore's old lover Gellert Grindelwald, right? In the impression, Grindelwald once perfectly disguised himself as Percival Graves and thus infiltrated the Magical Congress of the United States of America.

You know, Percival Graves is not a little person. He was the director of magical security and the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement of the Magical Congress of the United States at the time. He was also the right-hand man of Congress President Serafina Picquery. !

In other words, Mr. Percival, who has the same name as one of Dumbledore's middle names, is the Minister of National Security and National Law Department of MACUSA!

If it hadn't been for the help of Newt Scamander and a crouching demon in the end, I'm afraid Grindelwald, who has superb acting skills, would not have been recognized by people.

Of course, although Grindelwald was defeated and confiscated the wand, he still relied on his superb language skills to confuse a group of Magic Congress personnel, and finally escaped from the United States and went to Paris to continue his revolutionary activities. In a certain square in , that shocking speech was delivered.

Wright remembers that in the first grade, Professor Devont once reenacted that speech in class and won a lot of applause.

While Wright was thinking about Grindelwald, Professor McGonagall had turned around and opened the door to the office.

"Okay, come with me now. We're going to the second greenhouse to get the mandrake leaves."

Wright put aside his thoughts and hurriedly followed, but Professor McGonagall's last words almost made him fall to the floor of the office.

"This can be considered my Valentine's Day gift to you, Wright!"

The process of practicing Animagus was far more difficult than Wright imagined. This magic is not just about bravely saying the magic spell "Animagus" loudly like in some novels.

In fact, what Wright didn't want to admit was that even the first step of practicing Animagus seemed so difficult.

For a whole month, he must hold in his mouth a single mandrake leaf, fresh out of his childhood, and is not allowed to swallow the leaf or take it out of his mouth at any time.

As soon as the leaf leaves the mouth, even for a brief moment, the whole process must start all over again.

Moreover, this process of holding leaves in the mouth must be from full moon to full moon, not one day more or less, because it is not a whole month.

After holding it in his mouth for a month, Wright needed to take the mandrake leaves out of his mouth on the next full moon. Then he stood under the moonlight, filled a small crystal vial with his own saliva, soaked the leaves in it, and let it receive the pure moonlight.

If the weather is bad that night, it's cloudy or worse, then it means that the whole month has been wasted.

And even if it's not a dark cloudy night, there is a moon but as long as it's not a full moon, it won't work.

Then Wright would have to find a new mandrake leaf, wait for a new full moon night, and start all over again.

However, in this hellish place in the UK, expecting to have two perfect full moons within such an ingenious space of a whole month is simply a dream! Even on the Scottish plateau where Hogwarts Castle is located, the weather is usually cloudy and rainy. Although there are sunny days, they are rare.

Therefore, if you want to wait until the full moon, you can only rely on luck.

On the evening of March 14th, Wright expressionlessly took off the piece of mandrake that had been in his mouth for a whole month, and then stood silently by a window next to the corridor on the second floor of the castle.

Professor McGonagall's office is not far away. After Professor McGonagall silently patted Wright on the shoulder just now, she went directly back to her office, leaving Wright standing here alone.

Wright stood here all night, quietly watching the heavy rain outside all night, not wanting to say anything.

What else can be done? I can only do it all over again.
