Chapter 219 The Exact Road
"Professor, you really think highly of me. I'm only halfway through my second year..."
After the mystery was solved, Andrew even felt like he got lucky.
The existence of rules - is this something he should be exposed to?
Andrew thought for a long time and finally came up with an answer.
Yes.
After figuring out the rules, he tried to apply all the knowledge of transformation and spells.
Rules only allow magic, especially transformation, to be used better, but they do not mean that no magic can be used without the rules - the most classic one is the seamless expansion similar to the terrible permanent transformation in front of you. Here is the use of Transformation changes the rules to achieve the goal, while over there, spells are used to influence the rules to achieve the goal.
"Mr. Taylor?"
Probably seeing that Andrew had been silent for too long, the elf shouted softly.
"I'm sorry, I have something to do and I need to leave. I'll postpone the inspections and other things until the afternoon. Please, also, help me take the food directly to the Black Lake at noon. I probably won't come back."
"Okay, sir."
The elf agreed immediately.
Andrew rushed towards the Black Lake non-stop - he had a hunch that he could do it.
No, it must be possible.
Now that you understand it clearly, you understand...
Jogging all the way, making the solid snow that had been trampled on creak, Andrew came to the place where he often used the range transformation technique - the grass that was still green at first looked extremely dazzling at the moment.
No, it's not just eye-catching, but also out of place.
Andrew waved his wand and used the extremely skillful scope deformation again. The discomfort immediately began to subside. The messy lawns that emerged were easily integrated with the surrounding environment, and even had a sense of blending...
'That's right, it's blending...'
Andrew lay on the ground and checked patiently - after the deformation, the land was incompatible with the surrounding grass, but now it looks like a normal grass, but all the vegetation has been killed for some reason, but it is naturally accommodated Working hard to repair.
Even in winter, the force of life is wrapping and assimilating the newly transformed land.
Yes - the communication and changes in the rules have turned the grass that was originally modified by Andrew's transformation into a normal grass.
'No wonder it's the range deformation...'
He finally understood the professor's arrangement - the reason why he was asked to use range deformation was because only when the range was large enough could he be exposed to rule changes.
This land is suitable for grass to grow, and when it becomes grass, that vague rule is born - even if part of the grass is burned, it can continue to become grass after a period of time.
But this rule is so weak that it is extremely easy to change and contact - if it is replaced by a traceless expansion spell, genius knows how long it will take for him to understand the changes to the space rules.
'It's so suitable, so suitable...'
Andrew began to tidy up the land he had previously trashed.
The patches that had been affected by the transformation spell and did not look like grass at all began to slowly wither and even merge into the original grass a little bit.
'More than just...definitely more than...'
In repeated attempts, Andrew discovered that the grass that was originally pretending to be dead actually showed traces of life on the edge.
'Returning from death to life...yes, the threshold of death from death to life...'
He can be sure that in front of him, the only problem left in the transformation from death to life is magic power.
No, if it is limited to plants, as long as he is close to living plants, he will directly cross that indescribable realm.
"It was successful..."
He smiled.
"Mr. Taylor, your meal..."
The elf's reminder made him wake up from the surprise, and he realized that a long time had passed.
"Don't worry, go back to the castle first, and I'll find an empty classroom to deal with it."
He looked at his work with anticipation on his face. After passing the threshold this time, what kind of homework will the professor give him?
I’m really looking forward to it…
"Sorry, Mr. Taylor, I'm going to the kitchen right away to prepare a new one. It's already cold."
"ah?"
Andrew was stunned for a moment, "What time is it now?"
"It's two o'clock in the afternoon, sir."
"Okay, please."
——
"Success?"
When Andrew ran to Professor McGonagall's office with uncontrollable excitement, a rare smile appeared on the professor's face.
"If I'm not mistaken, yes, Professor."
"It's much faster than I thought. I originally thought you would be considered a genius if you could do it before the end of the school year..."
Professor McGonagall sighed - she was not worried at all about Andrew's misunderstanding.
"It was arranged by the professor. I thought of it when I saw that room."
"Can you feel it?"
Professor McGonagall looked surprised.
"ah?"
"I just wanted to show you Professor Adams' plant assimilation magic... I just didn't expect you to notice the transformation..."
"Assimilation magic?"
Andrew thought about it and realized that he had indeed made a mistake.
That assimilation magic is, yes, also a rule - use the same seeds, and then use magic to mislead, magic potions to protect, and even comply with the rules of nature. The use of multiple rules allows the new seeds to replace the original ones in a mystical sense. trees.
However, the great transformation technique was more direct and the impact was more severe.
"Have you gone to the Black Lake for experiments?"
"I went over the first time and then confirmed the matter."
"Very good, let's go over and take a look."
——
"You understand more than I thought, Taylor."
Professor McGonagall looked at the grass that had returned to its original state - then pointed with her wand, and a large piece of grass flew up, then landed and merged into another piece.
The fusion was perfect, and the raw aura suddenly expanded a lot.
"That's it, integrate the rules and then try to change..."
"but why?"
Andrew blurted out.
"Because, the more you want to understand, the less you can do it..."
Professor McGonagall smiled, "And as the magic power increases, it becomes more and more difficult to understand the rules. Your magic power has grown well, but it falls behind the realm of transfiguration, otherwise I would not let you try it."
'It's really difficult...'
"This is the difference between a genius and a top student. Although it may make you proud, it is true."
Professor McGonagall sighed, "Percy... I originally thought he could touch the threshold, but unfortunately... the concepts and rules, unless he specializes in transfiguration for a long enough time after graduation, he will not have the chance to try again..."
"Next, take out the lawn and blend it into another piece. Use them to polish your understanding of the concept of lawn. Then we can move on to the next step of teaching, Merlin's socks. It's faster than I expected..."
"Yes, Professor."
