International students at Hogwarts

Chapter 55 Animagus

The flying lesson was Lu Ren's last lesson for the day.After class, everyone separated and went to work on their own affairs.

Lu Ren didn't go back directly to the Gryffindor Tower, he went to the vegetable patch of his group first.

It has to be said that Professor Sprout is really a "Grand Druid". The growth potion she prepared is very effective and low in cost.With the help of the growth potion, the vegetables in the vegetable patch are growing gratifyingly.

For vegetables that grow on the ground like tomatoes, you can already see seedlings protruding tens of centimeters from the ground. Maybe in a few days, you can harvest fresh tomatoes.

The growth cycle of tomatoes in the Muggle world is about 110 to 170 days, but with the support of Professor Sprout, it only takes one week.

When Lu Ren came to the vegetable field, there were already people there.To Lu Ren's surprise, the person there was actually Malfoy.He is watering the seedlings and watching for bugs.

Where did this guy get all his agronomy knowledge?Lu Ren was a little curious.He walked behind Malfoy.Malfoy raised his head when he heard footsteps, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when he saw Lu Ren.

After all, I used to brag everywhere that I was a noble and famous family, but in the blink of an eye, I went to work in the fields.

"Flying lesson today, thank you." Malfoy saved himself, and he must thank him.

"It's nothing, you and I are classmates in the same group. If you are hospitalized, wouldn't you let me do all the work?"

Lu Ren looked around. The entire Hogwarts was divided into nearly 90 groups, and there were very few who came to the vegetable field to take care of the vegetable seedlings the next day after planting.

Maybe the seniors and sisters from other groups came here in the morning and afternoon.In the vast experimental field, except for him and Malfoy, there were only four or five people.

"Farming requires continuous investment. Professor Sprout's potion is very useful, but it cannot completely replace labor." Lu Ren sighed while pouring water.

One thing to say, Sprout's potion is really omnipotent, integrating functions such as fertilization, ripening, pest control, and balance of land inorganic salts and microbial groups.The potion cost for a piece of land does not exceed 5 nats. Such a talent can be said to be strategic.

Malfoy: "Marcus is not targeting you today..."

"I know, he's targeting the whole of Gryffindor."

Malfoy: ...

That's right.

"Are you okay? I think he's targeting you." After pouring a ladle of water, Lu Ren cast a "ger" spell on the tomato seedling.

"It's okay, my father is the school trustee, even if Marcus is also from the 28 holy family, he can't do anything to me, these are actually Slytherin's traditions. What kind of magic is this? I have never seen it before. ?”

"It's an ordinary growth-accelerating magic. I don't rely on a magic wand to release the magic." Lu Ren lamented the strange atmosphere of Slytherin, and casually explained it.

Malfoy didn't delve into it either. He knew that everyone had their own secrets, and if they wanted to maintain a harmonious relationship, they had to learn to maintain a normal social scale.He also continued to work in the fields.

The seedlings of tomatoes stopped moving after growing nearly ten centimeters.Lu Ren secretly lamented that his runes still haven't improved much.

Lu Ren felt something was wrong. You, Malfoy, a young master of a pure blood family, how do you know the steps of farming so well?

He opened his mouth to inquire, and it turned out that Malfoy went to Professor Sprout to make up lessons in private.

Breathtaking.It's also seven years of magic education, you are so good-looking, you really secretly made up the lessons!

The two of them worked for a while, and after taking care of the vegetables in the field again, they left the vegetable field.By this time it was getting dark and it was time for dinner.When the two were walking back to school, they saw Professor Sprout holding a toolbox.

"Professor, good evening. Do you still want to go to the vegetable field at this late hour?" Lu Ren asked curiously.

"Yes, I just finished class. Planting is the fairest thing. If you work hard, you will gain."

Lu Ren: ...

You may not know what natural and man-made disasters are, but wizard farming is not afraid of climate disasters.He suddenly remembered one thing, the sooner this thing is done, the better.

That is to learn the transformation of Animagus.Animagus transformation has its disadvantages, but it also has unparalleled advantages.

Unlike becoming an animal through transfiguration, Animagus retains the wizard's original consciousness, reasoning, and memory abilities, which can be said to be the perfect way to spy on information.Moreover, the animals transformed by Animagus can get rid of magic tracking in various senses, which can be said to have many benefits.

But this metamorphosis causes wizards to possess the brains of animals, trapping them unknowingly forgetting that they are a wizard.

The first step to becoming an Animagus is to hold a single leaf of a Mandrake in your mouth continuously for an entire month.There is no way to cheat here with February, a month with only 28 days, it has to be from one full moon to another.

The full moon refers to the moment when the celestial longitude difference between the moon and the sun reaches 180 degrees. In the lunar calendar, the fifteenth day is called Wang.So Lu Ren only needs to know what date is the [-]th day of the lunar calendar.

In September 1991, the corresponding Wangri was September 9, and I still had enough time to prepare the materials for the transformation of Animagus.

At no time during this month can the leaves be swallowed or taken out of the mouth. If the leaves leave the mouth, the whole process has to start all over again.

And this is just the first step... There are six steps to transforming into an Animagus!The process is harsh and outrageous, but the key is that this thing depends on luck!

So naturally, the earlier you start, the better.

A single leaf of a Mandrake is not difficult to obtain. He found Professor Sprout and asked her for the leaf.Professor Sprout smiled broadly.

"You also want to use the leaves to learn the transformation of Animagus, right? Every year, several little wizards come to me for Mandrake leaves. The one who persisted the longest came a total of 12 times, but None of them succeeded."

Transforming into animals is very attractive to young wizards, and the so-called "extremely difficult" makes them feel challenged.

Professor Sprout generously went to the second greenhouse and brought out five or six Mandrake leaves. "Take it, kid. If you have a friend who wants to learn this, share it with him. It's good for everyone to be together. After all, the conditions are harsh, and there is an element of luck. One person waits, and a group of people waits. .”

Lu Ren took Ye Zi and thanked Professor Sprout.Seeing Malfoy looking eager to try, Lu Ren handed him a mandrake leaf, indicating that the two of them could practice together.

Malfoy took the leaf and put it in his mouth.

Lu Ren: () Come on!
