Chapter 149 It must be the conspiracy of those guys!
"There is basically no need to consider the continued development of your transformation technique in terms of accuracy. For you, the more important thing is to be like He Guang."
"Like Wahiro?"
"Yes, like Heguang. You can transform into a needle, a leaf, a table, even a mouse, a cat. When the magic power increases, creatures such as lions and bears are also not a problem, but they Like? Can you stand next to a real creature without being recognized?
"As for Guang - you need to expand the transformation from a single object to a range, a body of water, a piece of grass, a swamp. Transformation is never just for individual existences, and the power of precise control of spells is also regionally transformed. The most critical prerequisite.
"So, I asked you to go to the greenhouse to study. You can't even recognize all the herbs, so how can you create an existence that no one else can distinguish between true and false? The same is true for Muggle botany and zoology. You only have Only by understanding can you achieve transformations that most people cannot see through.”
Is it like this?
A range of metamorphosis and absolute imitation?
Andrew listened very carefully - it turned out that it was not about improving the performance of Herbology, but about improving the realistic effect of Transfiguration?
But what's the use? Improving lethality is definitely out of the question. Is it just creating an illusion?
What are the effects of creating hallucinations? Moreover, if the transformation spell can cause hallucinations, it can kill the opponent several times, and the Imperius Curse can kill the opponent once and for all. Even if you are afraid of the Azkaban additional effects of the Imperius Curse, potions are a good way...
But the professor did not explain. She just told Andrew to be more serious. The more animals and plants he can imitate, the better. The environment should also be large, and he should observe more places like lawns and greenhouses.
Then just study honestly - he doesn't do that kind of thing.
Moreover, area transformation sounds like he is going to do big things. He likes this style of racing all the way through traps. Transforming into a bug in a small way is too boring.
"This is a reference list. There are two books in the restricted area..." Professor McGonagall handed over a full book list. After thinking about it for a moment, she shook her head slightly. "It's better to leave it with me. After you finish your work in the office, read."
"After reading, the daily training will be changed to area casting training. That's it..."
The sudden flying owl interrupted Professor McGonagall's instructions - normally, the letters delivered would only go into another room, and then wait for Andrew and the others to sort them manually. The only owls that could fly in directly were letters from the Ministry of Magic or Emergency communications on campus.
"Hermes?"
Andrew recognized the little guy immediately.
He rushed forward quickly and opened the letter it brought - hell, what's so important about the start of school that even so many prefects can't deal with?
"Harry Potter and Ron Weasley did not get on the bus, Professor Lockhart has already rushed to deal with it."
Andrew quickly scanned the letter and said as he handed it to Professor McGonagall.
"Didn't get in the car?"
Professor McGonagall's expression became more relaxed, "It's okay, Professor Lockhart will take care of it."
Although it seems a bit exaggerated, it is something that an adult wizard can handle easily, and Lockhart, an adventurer, can do it even more easily.
"I'll go to the letter room and have a look. Maybe Professor Lockhart has taken them back to school via the Floo Network or the Knight Bus. That's much faster than the Hogwarts Express."
Andrew wasn't too nervous either. He just missed the train. Lockhart was a man of his own, and he wasn't a fool. He had traveled all over the world without losing people. How could he lead them on the wrong path?
But soon he stopped laughing.
In the letter room, he easily found a letter that was definitely related to this matter - a letter from a parent, from Weasley.
According to reports, the Weasley family lost a magical car that could fly and become invisible, as well as two children named Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.
Just when the passage was blocked and I was about to miss my train.
‘Gudu. ’
Andrew swallowed.
Gryffindor!
His* Gryffindor!
The first day of school! It’s just the first day of school!
The two of you will wait five minutes for your parents to go back, wait ten minutes for Lockhart to arrive, and wait for half an hour for Andrew to even take the person back to school himself through the Floo network and the subway! Driving without a license and driving fast!
You might as well attack the professor with your magic wand, that way the expulsion will be smoother!
But he was still angry, and it was no longer up to him to decide what to do.
He quickly left the room and handed the letter to Professor McGonagall.
Visibly to the naked eye, Professor McGonagall's expression became serious. Andrew did not even doubt that the letter would be torn into pieces. However, to Andrew's surprise, Professor McGonagall's expression quickly relaxed and returned to calm, as if something like this had happened. It seems like she has been through a lot.
"Write to the Ministry of Magic to inform them of what's going on so that enough improvised response teams can be prepared to deal with possible exposure - I'll go find Albus."
This was a necessary measure if the two Gryffindors really planned to drive all the way back to school - otherwise they could be arrested for serious breach of confidentiality once they arrived.
"Do you want to write the stop letter?"
When Professor McGonagall was about to leave, Andrew had calmed down and asked a question.
"A stop during the vacation? Albus even found someone to keep an eye on him for a while, but he found nothing. The other party didn't show any signs of doing anything at the Weasley house. And Albus initially speculated that the other party approached him because of good intentions."
"But there is a high probability that they are doing it this time. The stuck time is because some masters are causing accidents to delay it. I didn't think of a way to get the stuck position. Then due to personal reasons, I blocked the entrance and exit just right, and used a confusion spell or Magic such as the Imperius Curse attacked Ron Weasley, causing the two of them to act unexpectedly. Even from the beginning, yes, the reason why they were stuck was because Ron was controlled, and then they had to drag Harry to get out of the way. Two people are left behind!"
Andrew couldn't accept the idea of a series of coincidences - happened to be stuck at the end, happened to have a broken entrance, and happened to drive at speed?
Do you think I'm a fool?
After the initial anger disappeared, a series of coincidences directly made him suspicious.
Professor McGonagall suddenly stopped.
Driving a speeding car is too special...
Taylor didn't know Gryffindor well enough, which led to such a misunderstanding, but the previous coincidence, if connected, would make sense.
'Perhaps the twins have distorted my understanding of Gryffindor? ’
She herself had some doubts.
"But Albus said the stop was probably well-intentioned - but it's a reasonable explanation..."
"Then it may be that the other party wanted to use a curse or other probing protective power, but another group of well-intentioned people secretly intercepted it, but Harry's position was suddenly transferred..."
"It wasn't until one day before the summer vacation that the malicious ones on the other side determined the location of the Weasley family, then took control of Ron and made a plan... They did not want Harry Potter to be attacked, but to have him violated the Statute of Secrecy. Fired!"
"That's it. There are two faceless people. One of them just wants to secretly protect himself and doesn't want to expose himself. The other side wants to secretly get Harry expelled and is also unwilling to expose himself..."
Andrew came to a conclusion, but still shook his head, "But this is just a guess, without any evidence, and...if the other party did something to the car..."
'And, most importantly, my intuition tells me that those two Gryffindors can really do something like driving... But how can I tell Professor McGonagall? ’
Andrew finally chose to remain silent and submitted his suspicion of persecution to Professor McGonagall.
