Chapter 520 Mandrake Leaves
"It's like jumping into warm water." When the fat man entered the room, he couldn't help sighing comfortably.
Soon, except for Luna who was sleeping in the room, all the members gathered in the center of the living room, because they noticed that the atmosphere was different, including Malfoy, who was brought over by Long Eyes, did not sit on the sofa as usual, but consciously Standing quietly behind Alan, their eyes were all focused on Alan by the fireplace.
"Life in Durmstrang is indeed not as exciting as everyone's usual tasks." Allen looked around at the members of the umbrella team, "You should also feel bored?"
"Master Allen, it is our duty to protect you." Mother Wolf said respectfully, "And I also enjoy this quiet time."
"I think it's very interesting. Being able to go back to Durmstrang is like a vacation." The fat man scratched the back of his head, and he was a little worried whether Alan had seen the mess he had with the students before.
"Master Alan, you can tell me what you need." Although the voice of Four Eyes was very mechanical, it was obvious that her mind was the most flexible.
"I want to find something for you to do and improve your strength. According to what I read in the information, you have not yet transformed into Animagus. I think it's better to use this relatively relaxed time, Let's count it as a task when everyone completes this." Allen's tone was relaxed, as if discussing today's weather, and he assigned the transformation Animagus as a task.
Malfoy on the side had an ominous premonition. Although members of the Harris family who joined the intensive training class could also learn the transformation method of Animagus, due to the fact that they had to complete their studies on weekdays and the process was too If you don’t pay attention to the preparations, you will have to do it all over again. Even though they have learned the transformation method of Animagus thoroughly, so far, no member has really tried it. When he was turned into a ferret by a fake Moody, the humiliation and feeling of being a ferret has always haunted him, so he has always been somewhat resistant to this animal's ability to transform, and worried about his Animagus Shape.
"You're all familiar with the almost certain successful Animagus methods I've announced in my family, and I actually even have the means of turning wizards into magical creatures, just like my Animagus Phoenix. However, compared to ordinary animals, these Animagus incarnations have very strict requirements for wizard talent. In addition to physical fitness, they also have very high requirements for magic power. Except for a very few geniuses, even if you pass by me After agreeing to your strengthening, the magical power will not meet the requirements, and if you force the change, it will only bring unknown results, and obviously this result is more likely to be bad." Allen was straightforward and honest to avoid possible psychological consequences in the future. pimple.
The collection in the tower is enough to make a lot of attribute potions, but after collecting the magic potions for so long, the family has only saved enough for two bottles. Apparently, Alan is not generous enough to use such precious things. To let these subordinates increase their magic power, he waited for these members to digest the previous introduction about the magic Animagus, and added: "The most important thing is that it requires long-term matching to find magical creatures with a high enough degree of fit... I My family members have not been able to find a magical creature that matches it successfully, so although I want you to use this lazy time to complete the Animagus that transforms into a normal creature, I still need to ask your personal preference."
"Master Allen, you don't have to waste time and energy for us. It takes several years for ordinary people to practice Animagus before they can turn them into the most suitable animals, and it is very likely to fail and cause irreparable damage. Effect. Before you, there were only seven Animagus registered in the 20th century, so it is a very remarkable thing that we can almost 100% successfully transform into an Animagus of ordinary creatures." Wolf Mom hurriedly said, "The reason why we haven't transformed is because the family has provided us with too much knowledge.
In addition to our preference for knowledge that pays off quickly, we also spent a lot of time completing the new Auror training, which delayed the transformation of the Animagus. "
Seeing that everyone had no objection, Allen nodded, and brushed his hand over the long table in front of him, and several packed wooden boxes appeared on the table. "Here are the relevant materials I prepared for you, take action after you take them."
The wolf mother understood, put away her own materials first, opened it and looked, there were mandrake leaves, crystal vials, and some chrysalis chrysalis.
Seeing that everyone had taken away their own materials, Alan warned: "During this time, you should focus on practicing Animagus. After all, you have to keep the leaves of the Mandrake in your mouth until the full moon. You can't always swallow the leaf or take it out of your mouth, or the whole process has to start all over again, which is not an easy task."
Unlike the Animagus that turns into a magical creature, which is directly prepared from the blood of the creature, the difficulty of transforming an ordinary Animagus is that it is very cumbersome, and even the preparation work involves a lot of luck In terms of ingredients, although the improvements made by the Black family have made the preparation less strict than the original version and saved some time, and the success rate of transformation has also been qualitatively improved, but these troublesome processes are still unavoidable.
"In addition, I will go to Karkaroff recently and ask him to grant me the right to borrow the books in Durmstrang at will. I will copy all the parts of these books that we don't have while researching." So I don't have time to keep an eye on your situation. So I must remind you that when the mandrake leaves are in your mouth after the full moon, take the leaves out, fill a crystal phial with saliva, and put the leaves Soak in it and let it receive the pure moonlight. If it happens to be a dark cloud walk that night, it's a pity that you will have to start over." Alan shrugged, and he sincerely wished them good luck.
"To the moonlit crystal phial, add a piece of your hair and a silver teaspoon of dew. Be sure not to mistake the hair," Allen recalled when Hermione used the polyjuice potion to transform her cat hair into Pansy. The corners of the mouth raised slightly, "There is also dew, which must be collected from a place where there is no sunlight or human contact for seven days. Finally, add a chrysalis of a grimacing hawkmoth, and put this mixture in a quiet, dark place. Finally Use the wand to say the mantra 'Amador, Animo, Animador, Animagus' to your heart every sunset and sunrise, and when you keep doing this, at some point, when the wand Let me know when the tip touches your chest and feel a second heartbeat, and I will ask Hermione's Thunderbird Cotton to help create the stormy weather you need to wait for when transforming."
The team members who were receiving their respective materials nodded. The biggest difficulty in transforming into an Animagus is the weather. Some people even waited for years for the storm to come at the right time. During this period, the crystal vial must remain completely untouched. Disturbance, the state of not being in contact with the sun. Sunlight pollution will cause the worst mutations, turning careless wizards into puddles of blood slimes that lose their personal consciousness but are still alive, and Durmstrang's shortened days and blizzards without sunlight obviously Great for avoiding such surprises.
"Alan, I'm awake. Didn't you say to take a sauna together? Did you pick the birch branches back? Does it really help the hangover?" Luna obviously just woke up, and the sound of a little sleep came from the room from here.
Everyone tried hard to pretend that they didn't hear, biting the tip of their tongues to keep themselves from laughing to maintain Allen's dignity.
"I heard from those professors that this is good for hangovers. You know, Luna is a bit uncomfortable today. I hope this will help her." Although Alan was already blushing by the fireplace, he still With his hands behind his back, he tried to explain the reason why he did this sternly, hoping that others would not misunderstand him.
The fat man suddenly coughed for a while, then scratched his head, "Master Allen, can you give me another mandrake leaf, I accidentally swallowed it just now."
