"What if I choose partial deformation?" Ryan asked, "I think it's just a matter of changing the appearance of the face."

"This is indeed a good choice." Ravenclaw said, "But unlike ordinary people turning into objects, the danger of people turning into people is greater."

"Why is that?" Ryan asked.

"You should have learned Gamp's Law of Transfiguration." Ravenclaw said, "Do you remember the five exceptions?"

Ryan nodded: "Food, water, air, medicine and magical animals..."

His eyes suddenly widened.

"It seems that you have already thought of it." Ravenclaw said, "In a broad sense, wizards can also be called magical animals."

Ryan's face looked a little ugly, and he asked: "Can I know the dangers of turning into humans?"

"The dangers of transfiguration are generally difficult to predict." Ravenclaw said. "Of course, there are many differences between turning a human into a magical animal and truly transforming into a magical animal. Whether the danger will occur varies from person to person. Some people can Adapting to the deformation of the human body has no effect. Some people cannot recover after deformation - irrecoverable in various senses. They need complex treatments, which may not be effective. There are also some people... If you pay attention, there is something hidden in that place. There is a case in the house.”

Ryan thought about it and smiled bitterly: "Five-legged monster?"

Ravenclaw nodded, her tone calm: "So, Polyjuice Potion or Transformation Potion are the safest options. If you don't plan to use Polyjuice Potion due to time constraints, then I can only recommend transformation to you. Potion.”

She thought for a moment and then added: "Don't worry, I won't harm you."

Ryan kept weighing in his mind which was more shameful, tearing off his waistcoat or having sex, and was in a dilemma for a while.

He sighed finally: "Give me the formula first, and I will make a decision then."

"Okay." Ravenclaw nodded, "There is not much difference between the transfiguration potion and the polyjuice potion, except that some of the materials in the middle need to be changed. Remove the antimony, which represents fragility. The female potion is prepared at night, Pure water needs to be added, and the male potion is prepared at noon, and rooster blood needs to be added.”

Ryan wrote down the recipe. He still had some ingredients for the polyjuice potion, especially the main ingredients: the horn of the bicorn and the skin of the African tree snake. Hagrid was really generous with it. For pure water, you can use "Clear water like a spring" "Summon, you can go to the kitchen and ask the elf for kitchen waste materials.

He didn't delay. After getting the necessary materials, he went to the room where the things were hidden to get two cauldrons, and returned to the Room of Requirement.

Now that it is evening, the female potion can be prepared, and at noon tomorrow, Ryan plans to prepare the male potion.

While mixing the potion, various novel ideas kept popping up in Ryan's mind.

While stirring the liquid in the cauldron with a glass rod, he asked Ravenclaw: "What will happen if I drink the male potion directly?"

"That's like drinking a powerful potion of mania." Ravenclaw said. "Always remember that potions are another sideways ritual. Violating the rituals usually requires a heavy price."

Ryan shook his head and said, "I tried adding the hair of two people to the polyjuice potion before, and it finally turned into a chimera of two people."

"You..." Ravenclaw's tone deepened, "You should be more cautious. Fortunately, you only added the hair of two people. If it reaches three people, I think your body will collapse, just like After drinking Polyjuice Potion, you turn into a pile of soft wax like you did at the beginning; even more fortunately, the ritual meaning of Polyjuice Potion is very weak, its essence is just to "become another person", as long as you don't add inhuman things. There is generally no ritual punishment for material things.”

Ryan made an international gesture towards the old bat in his mind.

"You need to add the bicorn horn powder." Ravenclaw reminded.

Ryan was shocked. He glanced at the potion in the crucible and found that the color had changed slightly. He quickly and carefully sifted a little powder into the crucible.

"Thank you for the tip." Ryan continued to ask, "Polyjuice potion and transformation potion have similar materials, so is the antidote for polyjuice potion useful for transformation potion?"

"It's useless. Although the materials are similar, these are two completely different potions." Ravenclaw said, "The antidote for Polyjuice is aimed at the crude antimony in the Polyjuice, amplifying its effect." Fragile. And it has no effect on its own. In other words, as long as a potion using crude antimony is used, the polyjuice antidote will be effective."

"The knowledge of potions is really complicated." Ryan sighed.

"If you are willing to learn, these are your future courses." Ravenclaw said, "In fact, I will not teach any compound rune spells this semester. You only need to practice 'displacement' well. For the rest of the semester, I plan to teach you about alchemy."

Ryan's eyes were a little dazed, and he suddenly realized that according to Ravenclaw's progress, it was really possible for him to be rushed out.

It has only been one semester, but Ravenclaw has already begun to prepare to teach alchemy.

"This is a necessary course." Ravenclaw said. "The ritual of soul inheritance requires a certain amount of alchemical knowledge."

"I will study hard." Ryan sighed. He had adjusted his mentality. Since discovering the nature of the Room of Requirement, he has deeply realized that the comfortable life he once expected is long gone. .

What else could he do?Of course I have to forgive myself for being so mean back then.

Moreover, learning knowledge from Ravenclaw is also a very interesting process in itself. Apart from burning your hair a little, this is what almost all wizards dream of.

He poured pure water into the crucible and finished with the potion.

"The production was very successful." Ravenclaw praised, "You are also very talented in potions."

Ryan put the potion into several medium-sized crystal bottles. The female potion exuded a crystal clear lavender light.

He wrinkled his face and carefully put the potion into his pocket, as if he was arranging his precious and fragile moral integrity.

In the next few days, Ryan successfully completed the preparation of the male potion in the Room of Requirement.

The school life of the little wizards is still peaceful, and Cedric is gradually getting over the shadow of broken love, and begins to spend a lot of time on Quidditch training. At the end of February, there is the Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. , his time is running out.

The Weasley brothers got into big trouble. During this time, they secretly resold Hogsmeade cherry liqueur among young wizards. This new product immediately won unanimous praise from everyone.

Until a sloppy little wizard got drunk and acted like a drunk outside the lounge.

He was captured by Filch and sent to Professor McGonagall, where he also confessed the names of the Weasley brothers under the influence of alcohol.

Gryffindor lost fifty points for this, the Weasley brothers each lost twenty points, and the drunken little wizard was deducted ten points.

The Weasley brothers were once again punished by Professor McGonagall to clean the toilets. In total, they cleaned almost all the toilets this year.

Fortunately, Professor McGonagall did not forget the Quidditch game. She allowed the Weasley brothers to participate in training, but they had to make up for the confinement afterwards.

On days like this, Ryan finally waited for the notice from the monastery.

He sighed, already making up his mind.

If the transformation potion was a one-way street, he would not choose this option anyway.

He is a decent man and does not want to sing "The little bird of my youth has gone without a trace" every day for the rest of his life.

But I couldn't bear it. This is a two-phase controllable transformation. It doesn't have the shortcomings of polyjuice. The price/performance ratio is really great.
