247. Animagus
After the Divination class was the Transfiguration class. When Professor McGonagall stood on the podium and told them that this class was about Animagus, McGonagall instantly forgot what happened in the Divination class. .shung
If his interest in Occlumency and the Patronus Charm was eight points, then his interest in the Animagus was ten points.
Being able to transform into an animal at will is almost one of his motivations for learning magic. He had previously wanted to buy a magic book about this spell in a magic bookstore, but was told that the Ministry of Magic did not allow the private sale of books about this spell. Any books, and wizards who learn Animagus must register with the Ministry of Magic. If they violate it, they may even be arrested in Azkaban.
So even in the alley, no wizard dared to sell this magic book privately. He also thought about getting this magic book from Quirrell, but in the end he thought about it and gave up, besides having troubled him too many times. , he felt that just like the Patronus Charm, he might have learned it but not mastered it. In this case, he might as well ask Professor McGonagall directly at school.
After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, she turned into a tabby cat in the eyes of all the little wizards. There were traces of glasses around her eyes. It was amazing that the clothes and items she wore were able to blend into it.
However, except for Magos, no one, including Hermione, paid full attention to Professor McGonagall, which forced her to change back and ask them strange questions.
The little wizard in the front row talked about what happened in the divination class. Professor McGonagall first looked at Magos in surprise, and then casually told Professor Trelawney that every year, a student would die. She told them, and told them clearly that she actually didn't trust the Divination class, and was especially unsure about whether Professor Trelawney could really predict the future.
Harry was slightly relieved when he heard this. After Magos, Trelawney also gave him an ominous warning.
"Okay, gentlemen and ladies." When the noise started below, Professor McGonagall tapped the table with her wand.
"The time for small talk is over, now can someone tell me what animagus means."
Before she finished speaking, Hermione raised her right hand high.
"Very well, Miss Granger."
"Animagus cannot transform into any animal at will, and the animal changed is related to the wizard's character and weight. Under normal circumstances, each wizard can only transform into one animal. At the same time, the Animagus transforms Usually limited to non-magical creatures, the transformation of magical creatures will bring unpredictable consequences. This may be because wizard magic and magical creature magic are fundamentally different in terms of magic power and degree of use. And it is different from the Animag we are learning now In addition to this, there is also something called the Metamorphosis Magus, which is an innate ability that some wizards have."
"Thank you, Miss Granger. It's very comprehensive. Five points for Gryffindor. Fortunately, we have a new student this year who is Disguise Magus. His magic riot turns him into a bobtail cat. This makes His parents were very excited and immediately went to the Ministry of Magic to register." She paused.
"I would like to add one more thing here. The learning of Animagus is very dangerous. Therefore, the Ministry of Magic controls it very strictly and requires all Animagus transformed animals and characteristics to be banned from the Ministry of Magic. Abuse of magic is prohibited. Register with the office. Anyone who is not registered is an illegal Animagus and will face charges from the Ministry of Magic if found."
Then she told the method of becoming an Animagus. Except for Magos, almost all the little wizards lost interest in this magic.
"This is too difficult, just to become a beast?" Ron chose to give up immediately.
Harry was somewhat interested, but his main goal at the moment was to learn the Patronus Charm.
Hermione couldn't tell what she was thinking, but she meticulously recorded what Professor McGonagall said.
"I also do not recommend that you learn this magic. After all, it is very dangerous. And it does not mean that you will not be in danger if you learn it. The danger of this magic is accompanied by every transformation you make. You know, people and people There is an essential difference between animals. When you become an animal, the animal's instinct will drive you to do what it should do. Once the animal's instinct completely dominates your thoughts, then you become an animal. Real animals, not animagus.”
"Can't you change back?" A little wizard below asked with some fear.
"It's okay if a wizard with powerful magic knows that you are an Animagus, but don't hold out too much hope. Apart from the fact that the animals you transform into are indistinguishable, the instinct of animals is to stay away from powerful beings around them."
Magos raised his hands at this moment.
"Mr. Will, what's the problem?"
"Professor, can Animagus transform into a flying animal, and can it still use magic spells after transforming into an animal?"
Professor McGonagall nodded and asked him to sit down.
"You can transform into flying animals or water animals, but I don't recommend you choose these two types of animals."
"The reason is still the instinct of animals. The instinct of birds is to fly, but humans can't. I once saw a wizard turn into a bird, and then he instinctively spread his wings and jumped off the building, and was thrown directly. Death. And even if you are gifted, if you learn to fly at the last moment, each of your transformations will be two different concepts of survival. If your will is not strong enough, you may suffer from schizophrenia. The same is true for fish animals, and it is even more dangerous. Lakes and oceans are more dangerous than you think."
"As for whether you can continue to use magic spells, obviously, you can't. Ordinary animals have magic powers? Like animals, it's not just about appearance."
"As for turning into magical creatures, there are very few wizards who are willing to do so, and those who can survive and skillfully use the magic power of magical creatures are all characters in the book. Anyway, as far as I know, no one is known to become an Animagus. Of magical creatures.”
As she spoke, she turned around and turned into a tabby cat again. She raised her head and looked around seriously, and then changed back again.
"Today's homework is to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of Animagus form. get out of class is over."
After saying that, he turned into a tabby cat and jumped a few times and disappeared.
The little wizards looked at this scene with envy, but few were determined to learn this.
"You seem to be very interested in this magic?" Hermione asked quickly while packing up the books.
"Of course, if you can't turn into an animal, you're still a wizard."
"Of course it's called a wizard." Ron looked at him with strange eyes.
"Most wizards don't know this."
"You don't understand." Magos looked behind him with a deep look.
"It's faith."
If his interest in Occlumency and the Patronus Charm was eight points, then his interest in the Animagus was ten points.
