Chapter 382 Professor, I Want to Learn This

"Come in, Tyler, what happened?"

Professor McGonagall was in the office, looking at Andrew with a serious expression.

Because under normal circumstances, Andrew would not visit unexpectedly, and at this time, most of the Gryffindor students had done something difficult.

‘Can’t even control the confinement? ’

Professor McGonagall was sure that if there was nothing important, Taylor would not bother him casually.

"It's not an emergency, but I need some help, Professor."

Andrew said as he took off his schoolbag, "I probably got what I wanted."

"Thing, that, enzyme?"

The professor still remembers what Andrew said.

"Yes, it should be," Andrew nodded, carefully took out a test tube from his bag, and then began to dig out the untreated wood, "These are almost enough."

He knocked on the parchment on the table and conjured a glass basin. "I have tested it. The deformation spell can resist damage during reaction very well."

Putting the wood into the basin, Andrew made a rough estimate and pointed at the basin with his wand, "The water is as clear as a spring."

"The curse is getting stronger and stronger, Tyler."

"Thank you, Professor."

Andrew nodded while estimating the amount of water - yes, it was all estimation and contemplation, there were no stable and precise steps at all.

After confirming that it was almost the same, he cast a crushing spell directly on the wood in the basin - because the transformation spell on the basin was too strong, the wood shattered into sawdust, but it was still intact.

‘I was a little nervous…then I just stirred. ’

"Next is the acid, Professor. Because it reacts, this step will consume the power of the transformation spell."

For this reason, this step is also something I am pondering, because Andrew does not have time to calculate the approximate acid consumption time and speed.

Then there are the industrial processes that seem to be imitated, omitting what should be omitted, and magicalizing what should be magical - anyway, the reagents created by the transfiguration technique will generate a very outrageous existence after the reaction, making the whole experiment very uncomfortable. science.

This can also be considered as an unusual and outrageous phenomenon that Andrew has studied during this time - for example, the simplest reaction between steel and acid, using deformation to turn water into dilute sulfuric acid, and then reacting with iron, normally, it will produce sulfate Iron and hydrogen, right?

However, the magically transformed sulfuric acid reagent will produce very little detectable ferrous sulfate and almost no hydrogen gas after reacting with iron.

Yes, there is only one point, and the weaker the spell is, the more abnormal the amount of reaction consumption is. Not to mention that the two are not in a normal ratio, and it is easy to cause no product at all, just like the transformation spell is converted into a disappearing spell—— All products are reduced to nothingness.

Andrew calls this interesting phenomenon the disappearing spell effect - the more powerful the spell, the more real the reaction. A weak spell will reduce matter to nothing like a disappearing spell, while permanent deformation will transform the false into the real. Same.

But instead of asking about this phenomenon for the time being, he now needed to show Professor McGonagall the function of the enzyme he had created.

"Professor, theoretically there should be enzymes that can change without acid treatment, but I haven't found any. I can only use some Muggle methods to speed up the reaction."

Andrew explained while removing the transformation spell to make the reactants as pure as possible.

"The enzyme itself does not participate. It should be said that it only promotes it. I don't know how to explain it more complicatedly, but Professor, what I can confirm is that even if it is copied using the deformation technique, it will not participate in the reaction products, or even Quality remains unchanged.”

He separated out one-third of the extract, then used the transformation technique to copy and increase the value, and then stuffed an estimated amount into the basin - yes, this step was still the same.

"You still have to be careful, Taylor," Professor McGonagall sighed. "Magic experiments have always been the most dangerous. I don't know how many wizards have died while conducting experiments. It's just a matter of change enzyme. Even if you After referring to a lot of Muggle experiments, I still can’t forget this matter.”

Andrew was silent for a moment and nodded quickly - he was indeed a little complacent and forgot this important matter.

"But, that's it?"

"Well, the enzyme can even be perfectly recovered later, but preservation is still a problem."

Although the results are still being reflected, it does not affect Andrew's request for help - because the technological content of this thing is really average, even if most of it is converted into magic.

"I'll go inform Albus."

Professor McGonagall nodded and went out without even waiting for the results - but it didn't take long for the professor to come back.

There is no doubt that it is a portrait.

And it was indeed no problem - because it didn't take long for Dumbledore, who could still see his pajamas under the wizard's robes, to arrive.

"Andrew's experiment was successful?"

"It's still in progress," Professor McGonagall pointed to the glass basin on the table - it didn't look pretty, it was pitch black and looked like dirty water from washing socks.

"Well, the power of the transfiguration spell is very weak, and even the spell itself is not consumed."

Dumbledore nodded, "How long will it take?"

…

Sorry, Professor, I don't know, but I guess it will be close in a while.

With the level of reagents available at Hogwarts, it would be amazing if I could detect sugar in it.

"I'm going to call Severus over. He's a professional."

Does this have anything to do with potions, professor?

Andrew was not sure - but what he could be sure of was that if he handed this thing in the Potions class, he would be mercilessly ridiculed, and then he would be deducted points from Ravenclaw, and he would have to be put in detention or something.

However, Dumbledore's execution ability was as superb as always - Professor Snape was soon invited over.

"Need to test the potion?"

Professor Snape looked at the black basin on the table, and then looked at Dumbledore. Andrew didn't know why he felt that Professor Snape was going to throw the contents of the basin out.

"That's it, potions? Are you kidding, Albus?"

He showed a sneer on his face, "This joke is not funny at all. Potions are a precise and strict process, not just a bunch of dirty water can be called potions."

"But you can definitely figure out what's in it, Severus?"

Dumbledore didn't seem to be angry at the offensive tone at all, he looked at Snape with a smile.

"I hope that if there is such a stupid thing again, I can ask other professors for help."

With a sigh, Professor Snape began to get busy - he disdainfully used a bottle to get some liquid, and then skillfully cast a spell.

Then, a more disgusted voice came out.

"It's not a potion, some sugar water, plus grass roots or roots of something else, all corrupted... and mixed with a little bit of magic and messy substances, even a little bit of toxicity, the kind that will cause diarrhea - it has nothing to do with potions."

? ? ?

What the hell?

What is this, professor, I want to learn this!

Andrew, who was struggling to analyze the ingredients, widened his eyes, but not only him, but also Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall's eyes suddenly became serious.
