Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Sainz had already verified in the Room of Requirement that the final product of the Vanishing Spell was air.

But why everything would eventually turn into air left him a little confused.

After thinking about this problem again and again, he could only attribute it to another factor of the spell - people.

Apparently, to the wizard who originally created this spell, air meant nothing.

There must be other transformation processes involved, but they were all omitted by magic in a very "magical" way.

There must be a deeper mystery behind this, but Sainz does not have a clear direction for research yet. He can only roughly guess that it should be related to the wizard's spiritual will.

But he believes there must be other factors, another larger operating system.

Because the energy consumed to make such a transformation is really disproportionate.

After other Transfiguration spells dissipate, matter will return to its original state, but the air created by the Vanishing Spell is permanently deformed.

You have to know that wizards have been trying to obtain a stable supply of gold throughout the ages, but in the end only Nick Flamel's Philosopher's Stone achieved this.

However, compared to the Philosopher's Stone, a unique miracle that could only be created by chance, a Vanishing Spell is so simple and crude that it can turn any non-magical substance directly into air that can exist stably!

This, this, this is incredible!

Isn't the composition of air more complex than a single metal?!

These can only be studied in detail later, this is not the real purpose of his visit to Professor McGonagall today.

He said to Professor McGonagall, who was still mumbling to herself, "Professor, now that we have proved that the disappeared objects have turned into air.

So doesn't this prove from the opposite direction that air is not undeformable?

In fact, this is not difficult to understand. I think most wizards just ignore this point. In fact, air is the most common and abundant substance around us.

Look! "

Sainz conjured a colorless, transparent telescope before his eyes, just like the one he had in the stands at the Quidditch pitch.

He handed the simple but absolutely useful colorless and transparent telescope to the professor, who took it, held it in his hand, and looked at it again and again.

She said with some relief, some helplessness and some emotion: "Autumn, you have challenged the nerves of the Transfiguration wizards once again."

It has always been an invisible consensus in the Transfiguration community that air cannot be deformed.

Now that these consensuses have been broken one by one by an underage wizard, one can imagine the complexity in Professor McGonagall's heart.

Sainz doesn't care about that!

He had long believed that Transfiguration was close to the "truth" to some extent, and that some things that Transfiguration could not do were probably not the fault of Transfiguration, but because the wizards were dragging their feet.

To be frank, Professor McGonagall is indeed a rare master of Transfiguration, but you can't listen to everything she says.

If Science had really taken her theory as his guiding principle, he wouldn't have achieved what he has today.

I have finished improving the vice-president's favor, and now it's time to improve my own dean's favor.

To be honest, it's really a headache to improve the dean's favorability.

Unlike Charms and Transfiguration, where he could use the excuse that he had achieved the results through after-school practice, Herbology was a bit of a hassle for him to figure out how to do it without exposing the Room of Requirement.

He had no choice. In the normal timeline this year, apart from limited activities such as painting and watching dragons, he spent most of his spare time helping Professor Sprout take care of the greenhouse.

It would be inappropriate to say that he was doing everything a teaching assistant could do, except filling in for the professor when necessary.

The job of the Herbology teaching assistant is actually to take care of the plants in the greenhouse and prepare teaching aids for different stages of courses for different grades to prevent the young wizards from being accidentally hurt by these dangerous guys during class.

Taking the poisonous tentacles as an example, he and the professor have to deal with some mature and aggressive guys in advance, including but not limited to moving them out of the teaching area, detoxifying them in advance, removing overly sharp stingers, etc.

Ensure that the guys in the greenhouse are not as aggressive as their counterparts in the wild, or ensure that even if they do attack students, it will not cause irreversible consequences.

After all, making students feel the danger of these plants is one of the purposes of teaching.

Therefore, it is common to see students looking disheveled or even covered in bruises after finishing herbal medicine classes. This is actually to be expected.

For example, when the mandrake reaches maturity, it is really very dangerous. At this time, the professor will never let the students help deal with it, because if you are not careful, it can really cost lives.

In fact, these guys are very similar to humans. They often cry when they are young, and when they are a little older, they have their own thoughts and become taciturn or moody. When they really become adults, they begin to like lively dance parties.

Does it look a bit like a blind date? Actually, it is similar. When they want to be moved to another pot, it proves that they are fully mature.

Similar to humans, adult Mandrakes will no longer cry easily, but once they get really angry and scream, they will be more hysterical and more deadly.

At this time, the professor will deal with them personally, in case a student accidentally makes them angry, which would be a bit tricky.

The maturity period of Mandrake is about eight months, and it takes about six months from the first repotting to maturity.

The plants that Sainz kept in the Room of Requirement were cultivated later and were repotted for the first time in November. Now they have become moody because their faces are covered with acne.

After the pimples have healed, you can change the pot again, and then wait for it to mature.

Saiens deliberately isolated them and told Conte and Jinling not to worry about them for the time being, and to wait for him when they approached them to avoid any accidents.

The mandrakes in Greenhouse No. 3 are two months older than those in Searcy's, and they are fully mature in early April.

After proving his ability, Sainz took part in the entire care process, including dressing them in socks and scarves in the winter and harvesting them when they were ripe.

The professor and Sainz did not catch them all, but left a few to produce seeds so that they would have new teaching tools for the little wizards next year.

Once their seeds mature, the medicinal ingredients in the grass roots underground will be greatly reduced, and they will gradually lose their human shape, and eventually wither and die.

If you use some special vicious methods to deal with them, what you get will no longer be a recovery potion that cures diseases and saves lives, but something highly toxic.

These seeds will mature in two months and will be planted in July. When the little wizards go back to school in September, it will be time for them to be repotted for the first time.

My professor's favorability has probably been maxed out. She can now let me take care of the Mandrake without any worries. What else do I want?!
