"I have to patrol the campus until 11 o'clock!" Draco Malfoy shook his head, and then told Gregory Gore on the side: "Gregory, you can send Christoph back to the common room. Lest that Weasley trouble him again."
"Okay!" Gower Urn said in a gruff, and he glanced at Jon: "Let's go, Christophe!"
They separated from Malfoy and Crabbe and walked to the basement together.
When walking through the potions classroom, Jon suddenly noticed a ray of golden light flying by him.
"Gregory, why don't you go back first..." He took the initiative to suggest to Gore: "Suddenly remembered something, I have to go find Professor Snape... Or you go with me?"
Hearing Professor Snape's name, Gregory Gore couldn't help but fought a cold war.
In the potions class, he was reprimanded by Professor Snape.
"No need...I...I'll go back first..." Gol stammered.
After more than ten seconds, he disappeared.
The corridor in the basement was dark, and Jon deliberately walked to a corner without a portrait, and then whispered:
"Fox?"
A golden light flashed across, and the big bright red bird flew in front of Jon and blinked at him.
"Is Professor Dumbledore free?" Jon asked in a low voice.
Phoenix nodded, and then pointed her tail feathers at Jon.
Grabbing Fox's tail, I only felt a moment of darkness, and there was only a mixture of gold and red in front of me...
...
Jon Hart appeared in the principal's office, and he also took off the iron ring in his hand.
Almost half of the wall with portraits of headmasters and headmasters in front of him was empty.
"They're all going to deliver the news, we've been very busy lately!" A gentle voice came from above Jon, and Principal Dairis-Derwent smiled at him kindly: "Serve Principal Hogwarts, It’s our duty."
"Yeah!" Jon smiled and nodded to Principal Derwent, then walked around the wall.
Albus Dumbledore, holding a handful of herbs that seemed to be hellebore, was feeding the phoenix over there.
"Since I saw you, Fox has become more and more greedy!" Dumbledore said with a smile: "This is not good news... Jon, sit down!"
Jon sat down across from Dumbledore with a well-behaved face, then took out his notebook and spread it out in front of him.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time you have asked me for advice!" Dumbledore put a handful of hellebore on the plate under Fox, wiped his hands, and sat down: "Fortunately, you ask for advice. Fortunately, it is within the scope of my expertise."
"It doesn't matter if you are not here!" Principal Phineas Black's carefree voice suddenly came from behind Dumbledore: "There are us!"
Jon suddenly discovered that there were more than a dozen portraits of the principal still here, all of them got into a portrait behind Dumbledore and looked at this side excitedly.
"Listen, don't interrupt Albus in a while!" Jon heard Principal Dairis Derwent reminding him over there: "That's very impolite."
"But if Albus can't answer, is it our turn..." Jon saw Principal Christopher Evra say.
"And if he made a mistake, we should also point it out..." It was Armando Dippet, Dumbledore’s predecessor, who Jon once saw in "Hogwarts, a School History" Past his portrait.
"Cough! Cough!" Dumbledore coughed slightly, pretending not to hear their conversation.
"Then let's start..." He said softly, "Start from the beginning!"
...
"What do you think of Transfiguration, Jon?" Dumbledore asked.
Jon pondered for a moment, and took the initiative to speak: "The essence of Transfiguration is a kind of magic that uses magic as a medium to change the essence of matter and turn one substance into another substance!"
"The summary is very good!" Dumbledore praised: "Perhaps I have to write it down, and someday I am going to write a book about transfiguration, and put this sentence at the top of the first chapter! "
"Professor, you laughed..." Jon scratched his head.
"It's not a joke..." Dumbledore shook his head: "So Transfiguration must follow a few basic principles."
"Five exceptions to Gump's law of deformation?" Jon asked softly.
"Accurately speaking, there are three exceptions!" Principal Phineas-Black's voice came from that wall in an untimely manner.
"Don't interrupt, Phineas!" Principal Dairis-Dewent shouted sharply.
"So rude, drive him away!" The other principals also agreed.
Poor Headmaster Black was squeezed out of the portrait, then angrily returned to his own portrait, and began to pretend to sleep.
"What Phineas is right..." Dumbledore was not affected by their riots. He still smiled and said: "The first two are actually not important to us... The first is food. , The second is money."
"First of all, food..." Dumbledore raised his wand and lightly tapped a silver knife on his table... The knife changed little by little, and finally turned into a fragrant sausage.
"It's not impossible!" Dumbledore said with a smile, "Want a bite?"
Jon shook his head quickly.
"It’s actually not difficult to use metamorphosis to make delicious food~EbookFREE.me~ but doing so is strictly prohibited; because different wizards have different levels of magic, like me, this metamorphosis can last for hundreds of years. For thousands of years, there will be no problem with the food that is transformed in this way; and some ordinary wizards may only be able to control its maintenance time to a few hours, so that if the food is eaten and the food is restored in the abdomen, it will have terrible consequences. "
"So, in order to prevent accidental appearance, food-related transformations are strictly prohibited... But this does not affect if a smart wizard is trapped in the desert and is hunger and thirst, he cannot turn sand into food to satisfy his hunger. ."
"The second rule, that is money, is logically the same as food."
"Uric Gump actually made a small mistake in this regard...because most of the gold magic on the market is'copying spells' or some simple tricks..."
"Gold can be said to be the metal with the highest magical stability, which is why it was chosen as currency. For a long time, the wizarding world generally believed that it was impossible to use polymorphism and convert other substances into gold... until my friend The emergence of Nick’s research results proved that gold is not intransformable...Of course, he also caused the sharp depreciation of Jin Jialong at that time."
