Anton suddenly discovered that he could understand many things about ritual magic instantly!
The collective fantasy of mankind, driven by magic, creates magical things one after another.
For example, the magic of moonlight.
Moonlight itself has great magical power, but why the magic power of moonlight has such strong properties is answered under this theory.
Moonlight is precisely the most common type of ritual magic used by wizards.
Nothing can compare to sunlight, because for humans, the only hazy light source in a dark night is so mysterious and makes everything so mysterious.
Similarly, dew also has this magical power.
Dew appearing in different environments has different effects due to the different consensus associations of primitive human collectives attached to it.
For example, the magical ritual of Animagus requires dew from places where no one has passed.
Because an inaccessible place will make anyone who comes here feel creepy and feel that there are terrifying creatures and even ghosts hiding here. This kind of fear hides the human fear of death, the fear of the unknown, and the fear of hell.
of fear.
Water is the fountain of life, and the water here represents life in death.
Yes!
That must be the case.
Therefore, the learning process of Animagus is the most obvious ritual magic.
Mandrake leaves that can copy human identity information, after collecting all the information in the mouth.
Then he floated this piece of his soul in an inaccessible place, and finally survived under the nourishment of dew. But after all, the soul could not grow on its own, so magic brought it the original body that accumulated day and night.
As the hair grows, the ghost-faced hawkmoth also comes to pupate, and finally sheds its body, spreads its wings and flies away.
In this way, they jointly build a magical womb that breeds life.
As the storm visited this place, a thunder and lightning struck down.
The pounding of the heartbeat could be heard in this secluded place.
It represents the emergence of a new life.
Anton discovered something that was most easily overlooked when studying Animagus. The above should be placed in a glass bottle, and such a glass bottle is actually part of the ritual magic. Its purity and translucence represent
A nurturing environment that is holy and flawless and can be nourished by external energy.
Then, when the wizard drinks this bottle of potion, the soul copied by the mandrake leaves is absorbed and devoured by the original wizard's soul!
As a result, this new body became another body of the wizard.
"so……"
Anton looked serious, "There is a problem with the ritual magic of Animagus. In the last step, the wizard should hear the heartbeat from the glass cup and then drink it."
"Instead of drinking it and waiting for that heartbeat to appear."
"Such a mistake will cause the wizard's soul to intervene in the process of 'copying the soul' to give birth to new life, causing chaos. This is why the failure of Animagus resulted in so many deformed animals that cannot be recovered!"
"Because what was transformed became the wizard's original soul, not the original soul copied by the mandrake."
"Especially the first step, which is to hold the mandrake in your mouth for a month. If this step is not executed properly, then it will not be the new life that is transformed by the ritual magic, but the wizard himself."
"It can only be said that those who successfully used this method to learn Animagus in the past were either lucky or had strong enough willpower!"
"Professor McGonagall, I'm done."
Mag looked at Anton in shock, then turned to her husband in a daze, "Elphinstone, did you hear what this child said?"
Elphinstone Urquhart looked at McGonagall in shock, "Oh, dear, is your Hogwarts education so good?"
"Elphinstone, it's different. Anton is special."
Mag looked at Anton in shock, "You modified the steps of Animagus before. I always thought it was luck."
"I didn't expect that you could study this magic so deeply and understand its principles."
"Modern wizards are too short of people who study the principles deeply."
Anton shrugged, "My first teacher, Professor Fiennes, opened the path to magic for me, and I was greatly influenced by him."
"You should really go to the 'International Animagus Symposium' to talk about this. The ideas of those old guys are too backward." Mag's mood was still hard to calm down. As an internationally renowned transfiguration artist,
Master, as one of the seven registered Animagus in the world, and as a Mag who studies Animagus all year round and often lives in animal form, this is really shocking.
This is her professional field, but her students came up with an improvement that she had never thought of, and found such a correct improvement!
"You should publish it in the journal Transfiguration Today, and I will write a letter of recommendation for you!" Professor McGonagall looked very excited, "You can follow this paper and join the Transfiguration Association!"
Anton was stunned for a moment, "But I am going to submit an article to "Hogwarts Weekly"."
"Oh, what can that guy Lockhart do?" Professor McGonagall chuckled, with no hidden disgust in her eyes.
Anton smacked his lips and said, "Okay, I choose to follow your suggestion and submit an article to "Transfiguration Today"."
Mag smiled and nodded, "Bring it to me for a look before you submit it, and I will help you revise it."
"Eh?" Anton suddenly reacted, "Lockhart? Professor McGonagall, do you know that the editor-in-chief of Abbot is Lockhart?"
McGonagall took a sip of tea and said, "Yes, I don't quite agree with Dumbledore's opinion of letting such a person become the vice principal and the editor-in-chief of the school magazine at the same time."
Tsk tsk tsk, it seems Lockhart is still so unpopular.
"Dumbledore plans to announce Editor-in-Chief Abbot's retirement at the beginning of the next school year and Lockhart will take over. By then, the arrival of the child you turned into a wizard, Dudley Dursley, will attract everyone's attention.
power and reduce unnecessary debates about Lockhart."
"Anthony Weiss is here..."
Professor McGonagall stared at Anton, "You have brought a lot of changes to the school. Maybe many people will ignore this. In my long teaching career, in the two years since you entered school, I have discovered too many changes that were not there before.
"
Anton blinked and scratched his head stupidly, "Really?"
"At least I have never approved any students to buy their own cabins in the school, open a stable to raise magical animals, and open a greenhouse to grow magical plants."
"At least I haven't signed any documents about current students becoming Auror interns before."
Professor McGonagall smiled and said, "Professor Dumbledore is right. He asked me to control you less so that you can have more room to grow."
"I know that you bought a cottage in Hogsmeade. I think maybe I should give you, including George, Fred, Neville and Hannah, more freedom."
Mag handed over a document, and Anton took it blankly.
"They will be allowed to go to Hogsmeade outside of school hours, and you will be allowed to leave the school freely and go wherever you go first, provided..."
"Complete your homework on time and it will not affect your studies."
Anton looked at the document in surprise. It was not an easy task to obtain such authorization from the serious Professor McGonagall.
"Thank you very much, Professor McGonagall."
Mag spread his hands, "Perhaps an excellent little wizard shouldn't be restricted too much. It's good to have more experience. I don't want you to have the idea of dropping out of school just because you have grown to this point. You should be clearer.
The importance of continuing to learn.”
Anton's face became serious, "Of course, I know very well."
"Very good, I heard that the two Dumbledore's Army..." Professor McGonagall looked strange when he mentioned the name, "They will have a study exchange meeting. I hope you can lead more exchanges, Loha.
I still agree with some of the suggestions on the education of young wizards."
