At night in Hogwarts, on the edge of the Black Lake, the moon was in its normal first quarter, but not yet full. Lupine was holding a bottle of scarlet potion in his hand, with an uneasy expression on his face.
He was suddenly pulled out of class by Professor McGonagall in the morning and told him that the magic of the New Animagus had been deduced under the leadership of Zhang Ziyu and had gone through several trials. A final test would be conducted tonight.
.
Hulihutu had been arranged, and Lu Ping was unable to participate in the research process, so it was understandable that he felt a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, the Animagus potion was refined by Snape. You know his skills."
Lupine glanced at Snape, with a wry smile in his eyes, "Boss, I'm even more panicked when you say that. We had a grudge before."
Snape still said with a cold face: "Don't worry, I will poison you, but not in front of so many people."
"Ahem, Remus, don't worry, Professor Zhang has done the experiment, it's very safe."
Dumbledore had already pointed out that he knew that Zhang Ziyu had kidnapped a large group of werewolf wizards. Although these guys had no talent for transformation, they did not die after taking this medicine. At least the medicine was safe.
The four of them completely analyzed the Animagus. The process of holding mandrakes in their mouths for a whole month, from the last full moon to the next full moon, and then extracting saliva and so on, were all simplified.
It used to be so complicated, mainly due to the inefficient use of energy (magic) from the moon, but after Zhang Ziyu joined, he took the initiative to converge the moonlight, and then used mandrake, the blood of Animagus practitioners, and the grimace hawk moth
The pupae and other materials are refined under the moonlight. You have to stay up late every night, and you have to put them in a lightless chamber during the day.
In order to get this Animagus potion, Snape's dark circles have not disappeared this month, and he looks like an old bat.
It was precisely because of this that Snape looked at Mr. Lupine who stayed up late every day. Do you think I poisoned him? He went back to get some oriental potion ingredients with Professor Zhang. It seems to be called Croton, right?
The potion is full of the power of moonlight and has an excellent transformation effect. Compared with the transformation potion made by the ancient method, the effect is undoubtedly better.
Of course, there was one thing Zhang Ziyu didn't tell Lu Ping: none of the fifteen werewolf wizards succeeded.
The magic potion is very safe. If you fail to take it, you will not die. At most, you will have diarrhea.
But Animagus is not Polyjuice. If you want to transform, you must have enough talent and concentration to calm yourself down and concentrate on completing the transformation of Animagus.
This new method is better, because in the original method, they have a long enough period of time, which may be several months, or several years, to recite the Animagus mantra at sunrise and sunset, constantly
Hint to yourself.
Besides concentration, there is a bigger problem.
To solve Lupine's werewolf problem, we must suppress the conflict and form a circuit of werewolf magic in the body, which is the way the werewolf casts spells. Only in this way can the problem of werewolves becoming violent be completely solved.
The magic conflict was already severe, but this process was undoubtedly even more uncomfortable.
"Thank you all for taking this time, I'll start now."
It's a normal passage, but it has the flavor of a final statement.
Lupine drank the potion in one gulp. As soon as he finished it, he felt the magic power surge from deep inside his body. This feeling was stronger than when the moon was full.
He wanted to let out a werewolf howl, but Zhang Ziyu and Professor McGonagall had already told him the precautions. At this time, he must stay calm, suppress the werewolf magic, and guide them to form a magic circuit, so that he could get rid of it once and for all.
"Amado, Animo, Animado, Animagus"
Over and over again, in the pain of violent muscle tearing and magical impulse, Lu Ping's pale face was extremely determined, and he kept chanting curses in his mouth.
For so many years, he has suffered so many grievances because he is a werewolf, and because he is a werewolf, his friends, relatives, and teachers have given so much to him. He... must not let these people down.
Snape's face was still cold, but when he saw Lupine's appearance, there was a strange color in his eyes.
Snape's mother is a wizard and his father is a Muggle. The combination of the two families is very bad. His father is a person who extremely hates magic. You can imagine his attitude towards the young Snape.
Exclusion and bullying accompanied Snape throughout his childhood. Even after he went to school, as a mixed-race child in Slytherin, one can imagine his experiences, not to mention that he had James Potter as his arch-enemy.
He knew the feeling of being ostracized and bullied, and wasn't Lupine's werewolf identity the same?
If it weren't for Lupine or the Marauder, maybe they might have a chance to become friends.
The spell continued, but there were many painful gasps in the sound. Lu Ping's body shape began to change. First, his feet turned into upright wolf feet, then his body, and slowly moved up to his chest, arms, and gradually spread to
brain.
Professor McGonagall held her breath, and Dumbledore and Snape stared at Lupin's head.
This is a crucial step. If the werewolf side is suppressed and the magic circuit is successfully drawn, then things will be done.
Lupine's head gradually turned into the shape of a werewolf, and he lost control several times, but fortunately the curse did not break.
"roar!"
With a roar, at the last moment of transformation, the spell finally ended.
The Lupine in front of him had completely turned into a werewolf and stood still.
Snape silently took out his wand, ready to shoot Lupine if he came over.
"Successful."
Suddenly Lupine spoke and raised his head. Although he looked like a werewolf, there was a sense of clarity and excitement in Beast Boy. He still had reason.
He looked excitedly at his hands and feet, looked at everyone, and shouted loudly: "It worked, I didn't lose my mind."
As he spoke, Lupine began to cry, finally able to get rid of the painful, uncontrollable evil-doing werewolf life.
He is a werewolf and an Animagus, so there is no need to lose his mind anymore.
Professor McGonagall's eyes turned red when she saw this scene. She was also very excited, but she was also grateful that her students could escape such a fate.
"Remus, change back first."
Lupine nodded and was about to change back.
"Wait!"
"etc!"
The speakers were Zhang Ziyu and Snape. They looked at each other and said, "While we have just transformed, let's take a tube of blood to verify the infection first."
Lupine:?
Although he wanted to refuse, the people present were all the people who saved him, so how could he say such a thing.
He turned away and said sadly, "Come on."
Each person drew a tube of blood, and Zhang Ziyu drew quite little. He just took a look, but Snape must have a personal grudge, and a tube of blood definitely did.
Lupine transformed and came back, his face still pale. This may not be because of the transformation, but because of the blood draw.
Snape rarely smiled: "That's right, please be more cooperative in the future, James."
Lupine:Gan!
The new Animagus has been successfully improved, and each has gained a lot. Professor McGonagall has obtained the direction of Animagus evolution. The next step is to consider what cat-like magical creature should be used as her Animagus template.
.
Observe and study magic circuits, then transform and improve your strength.
Although Snape didn't care about the new Animagus, during the process of participating in the research, the werewolf inhibitory potion had already been developed.
Not everyone has the same opportunity as Lupine to control the werewolf form through the Animagus, so potion control is still mainstream. However, with Lupine as a ready-made experimental subject, his potion development should yield results soon.
If nothing else happens, Snape will at least receive a second-level Order of Merlin.
As for Dumbledore and Zhang Ziyu, they definitely gained the most. They far exceeded the curse itself and touched the foundation of the magic world.
