Chapter 240 Muggles’ Transfiguration
"Not magic, not magic at all, just using alchemy, tungsten wire, alchemical tools, heating, and then solving the lighting problems in all ancient places."
Nick looked at Andrew, the thought in his eyes was much stronger than Dumbledore - it was hard to imagine that such a person would say that he planned to give up living before.
"Completely different, yes, completely different, Grindelwald's speech..."
He seemed to be recalling something, "I blocked the flames that burned the city, but I built a high wall in my heart. I activated the magic of electricity in Beauxbatons countless times, but I never completely swallowed the theory. "
Is it referring to Grindelwald’s Paris speech?
Andrew was even a semi-expert on this material, but now was not the time to think about it.
"Albus," Nick stared at Dumbledore, "Have you made any progress in your alchemy skills over the years?"
Very rarely, Andrew saw a look of shame on Dumbledore's face.
"No progress, okay. I know you are busy and have other things to do. The same goes for this visit. You don't plan to put more energy into alchemy. You just want to ask me some historical questions..."
Nick shook his head, with a bit of helplessness, "Okay, this, um, Taylor, please wait a moment, Albus and I have something to talk about, you can go to my study for a while - um, Take whatever you like, of course, books are not allowed, but you can read them as you like, or even copy them.”
"Chris, take this Taylor to my study."
Nick shouted, and a dog-like guy whose whole body was made of messy metal and wood appeared.
It ran happily, circling around Andrew's feet, signaling for Andrew to follow it.
'If you don't leave, I'm afraid I'll be carried back after hearing about Dumbledore's dark history...'
With the thought together, Andrew quickly followed and walked towards Nick's study.
You can use whatever you like as a joke - just use one thing that makes you happy, the focus is books!
Nick Flamel's study, feel free to copy!
This kind of thing... let alone Andrew, it was Mike - ah, no, it was Professor Snape who had a straight face all day long. When he heard it, everyone had to open his mouth!
He was quickly taken to the study, and then began to study the words above...
Then, I was dumbfounded...
Hell – most of it is in French!
He just wants to scold the Vichy regime now! Can't you resist for a little longer? As long as time passes, his self-taught German will be able to recognize at least the title of a book!
But there is no medicine for regret, just as the combination of the rule of virtue and the rule of law will not last long.
After calming down, he carefully examined the collection... This time it was even more confusing. It was in Latin, Greek, and French, old and new, but the main one was incomprehensible...
He does know some Latin, but it seems a bit too old... When the knowledge is not dated, it is not very useful as a reference...
He had no choice but to find a handwritten French book from the bookshelf according to his mood, and quickly copied it with the quill he carried and the ones on the table.
'Fortunately, I have a shorthand quill on me, otherwise I might not be able to copy a whole book...'
He wrote hard and quickly, and finally copied a book completely before Gouzi reminded him. He planned to follow the departure Then, he took another ornament from the table under the pull of the dog, and then returned to the living room under its leadership.
Obviously, Dumbledore had gained a lot, but Mr. Nick had given up on him and turned to look at the manuscript and props in Andrew's hand.
"Ah, it's a note from me, but I'm afraid you still have some difficulty reading it," Mr. Nick waved his hand, and the manuscript fell into his hands, then bound into a volume, and finally sealed by a strange magic, "Waiting for your alchemy After you get started, unseal it and try reading again.”
"As for the other one...well, the scale I've used before is quite easy to use, but it's for measuring the weight of magical meanings. Don't get confused."
Nick looked at Andrew with a very happy expression, and then his eyes became strange.
"Huh? Still not satisfied? Then get some more... No, you... you don't know?"
He looked at Andrew in surprise, as if Andrew should understand weight in a magical sense. But Andrew really didn't understand this kind of thing.
Nick glanced at Dumbledore, "Albus, didn't you bring a genius here? Why doesn't he know such basic concepts?"
"Taylor is a genius in transfiguration, and his talent is no less than mine." Dumbledore looked at Nick with an equally strange look in his eyes, "I'm just showing it to you. He has never learned alchemy."
"But that material?"
Mr. Nick looked surprised, "It was mentioned in the paper that it was Taylor's guidance that led to this breakthrough!"
No, are you too honest?
At this moment, Andrew only felt that he was being flattered by the laboratory masters at his school.
"That…"
Dumbledore glanced at Andrew, and Andrew took a breath and told a real reason.
"I came up with this idea after studying transfiguration in the Muggle world."
"Transfiguration in the Muggle world? Not alchemy?"
"Yes, Transfiguration in the Muggle world," Andrew thought about the information he consulted - making sure that he would not reveal anything he shouldn't have learned.
He used the transfiguration technique to enlarge the parchment, passed his finger across it, and a huge and mysterious picture appeared on the parchment.
"That's it, Principal, Mr. Nick."
Andrew looked at the complex and smart lines and expressed the thoughts that had been floating around him for a while, "This is it, Muggle transfiguration, something I have been studying in my spare time this year, the ultimate in change, the ultimate in materials - —Iron-carbon phase diagram.”
"Iron-carbon phase diagram?"
Dumbledore and Nick had obviously heard about it, but did not study it in depth - after Voldemort's apparent death, Dumbledore had been busy studying Voldemort's hidden methods, while Nick was studying in depth magic alchemy. The various things that had been perfected recently were still from the Muggle world, so they didn't pay any more attention to them.
"Yes, the changes in iron and carbon are differentiated and anchored by temperature, forming changes similar to transfiguration. It can even transform the existence of iron into various states, and reach non-magical limits."
This is the next stage of Andrew's research direction - yes, if there is no such thing as rules, he will be ready to find another way in this direction due to the limitation of insufficient magic power.
"Temperature? It is indeed a factor that affects deformation...but changing the proportion?"
Dumbledore looked at this picture and fell into thinking - just as he acknowledged Andrew's talent, he also acknowledged Andrew's judgment that this Muggle transfiguration technique did have power that could be borrowed by transfiguration.
"It's not just transformation...it's also alchemy...that's right..."
But Mr. Nick's voice was quickly silenced by Dumbledore, "Interesting, very interesting."
With a wave of Dumbledore's wand, a ball of soft iron appeared, followed by a ball of carbon powder.
As shown in the picture, they combine and then begin to deform under the influence of temperature. They start to combine crazily like a juggling act to form various types of iron with different properties.
"I'm afraid I have to go back and study hard for a month."
Dumbledore's expression was a bit serious and relaxed.
"I think I need more time and more information, Grindelwald..."
Nick sighed, but his eyes grew brighter.
