Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 105: Mind Control Transformation Method

December 12th, Thursday night.

Christmas is getting closer and closer, and the little wizard seems to be getting anxious. He is not very serious in class, and his mind seems to be drifting outside.

The same goes for evening study hall, which has been noisy these days, even for Hufflepuff students.

Some students are already discussing happily where their parents will take them to play on Christmas, what food will be prepared at home, and what gifts their relatives and friends will give them.

However, happiness only belonged to the other little wizards, while Lin Xia and Draco were extremely busy.

Although they no longer have to spend time in the laboratory to study topics, there are more important things waiting for them, and they are even busier than in the laboratory.

Hermione quietly ran to the Hufflepuff lounge. She wanted to find Lin Xia and Draco and exchange news with them.

Draco's roommate Robin said: "You are late. The two of them went out not long ago."

Hermione asked: "Where did they go? If they come back soon, I'm willing to wait."

Tu Lei interrupted: "Don't wait, they stopped studying in the lounge last week and went to other professors for private tutoring. It seems they have to complete some things assigned by the professor."

Robin nodded and said, "Yes, Draco only comes back at night when he goes to bed."

Hermione said helplessly: "Okay."

She left the Hufflepuff common room with the incident in mind.

She didn't know why, but she felt that she was getting further and further away from Lin Xia and Draco. In the past, she was very confident that she could be the leader, but now why is she unable to catch up?

While she was still helping Harry and Ron solve the case, Draco and Lin Xia were already receiving individual tutoring from the professor.

Hermione clenched her little pink fist and gritted her teeth secretly. She must have a very fulfilling Christmas holiday. She might as well buy the second-grade textbooks and preview them in advance.

When the new semester starts, she will have to reach a level where she can help the professor!

On the other side, Lin Xia didn't know Hermione's secret ambitions.

She was in Professor Oti's office, receiving individual tutoring from her.

Just during the day, she had just taken Professor Oti Havertz's Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and was praised by the professor for her accurate spell-casting posture.

But when she was tutored alone in the evening, things didn't go so well for her.

The wand in Lin Xia's hand was pointed at the badger transformed from stone, and he used his mind to outline a complicated magic circle.

As long as this magic circle is successfully outlined, a ray of consciousness will be automatically separated into the deformed object, achieving the effect of "controlling the deformed object with your mind."

After a while, the badger turned into a stone again.

Obviously, she failed to outline the magic circle with her mind.

Professor Oti took a sip of black tea and said without surprise: "When you wanted to learn from me, I told you in advance that this 'mind control transformation method' is not so easy to learn.

You have been practicing with me for three days. According to the agreement, if you cannot outline the magic text array in your mind within a week and separate a ray of consciousness into the transformed object, then you will forever lose the opportunity to learn this skill. "

The "thought control transformation method" was not something Professor Oti figured out by himself, but he learned it from his teacher.

This seemingly high-end transformation technique is far from something that one person can come up with. Instead, it requires several generations of people to continuously improve and perfect it before it can be perfected.

The programmed transformation technique that Professor McGonagall figured out by herself only gives fixed actions to transformed objects.

But Professor Oti's technique is to give the shape-shifting creature thought and intelligence, which is equivalent to another clone of the wizard.

At the same time, the wizard can also withdraw from consciousness at any time.

When the wizard sends out deformed objects to check, he feels that he is in danger and can actively cause the magic circle to collapse, thereby letting his consciousness escape.

After that, even if the transformed object is damaged, the wizard will remain unscathed. At most, he will be mentally weak, but he can recover.

However, this witchcraft is not without its drawbacks, that is, it is too difficult to get started.

And if you really encounter danger, you can't say whether your consciousness can escape in time.

When encountering an emergency danger, the consciousness is often unable to react, or even detect the danger, causing the deformed object to be damaged, causing the consciousness attached to it to be severely damaged, which can backfire on the wizard.

Some wizards use this technique, and if they are not careful, they may become idiots.

Therefore, this "mind control transformation method" witchcraft is classified as an advanced transformation technique and is also listed as a "forbidden technique" by Hogwarts.

As a first-year wizard, Lin Xia would not be able to access such advanced witchcraft even if he obtained the Hogwarts Excellent Student Badge.

At least she couldn't get it through the academy's channels.

So Lin Xia used Dean Sprout's personal communication channel. It happened that the dean had a good relationship with Professor Oti.

Professor Audi is willing to give her a chance to test. As long as Lin Xia can pass the test, she will teach her the "Mind Control Transformation Method" without reservation.

But if Lin Xia fails to pass the assessment, Professor Oti will never teach another step.

Lin Xia calmed down and tried again.

This witchcraft is a test of one's mental strength. Her mental strength is much stronger than that of young wizards of the same age. After all, she is a second generation human being.

But because they are still growing and developing, they are not as good as adult wizards.

She could already outline half of the magic circle in her mind, and it was not that she couldn't outline the subsequent half. Often, at the last moment, her mental strength was a bit insufficient.

It's not that it can't be done, but that the strength doesn't allow it. This is purely a flaw due to lack of strength.

Tried again, still failed.

Professor Oti waited patiently until the bell urging the little wizard to sleep rang. Then she said: "Lin Xia, it's time for you to go back and rest." Although she still failed today, Lin Xia had found the reason and her face was very calm.

She said politely: "Thank you, Professor, for your guidance today."

Professor Oti could tell that the little wizard was sincerely thanking her.

To be honest, she had been teaching at Hogwarts for several years, and she had encountered some students who believed themselves to be geniuses and came to her to learn about this witchcraft.

But these students failed without exception.

Even Professor Oti himself was fully prepared at the beginning. He collected information from all aspects and deliberately strengthened his mental power. He used the state of an adult wizard in his heyday to successfully challenge it within seven days.

When Professor Oti was a student, she was also called a genius. Her talent was not bad, but even she was not sure about it when she was a student.

Among the many students who came to ask for advice, Lin Xia had the best attitude.

She also saw that Lin Xia was not unable to draw the magic circle, but was stuck due to lack of mental power!

If the complex magic circle cannot be outlined, the transformation will collapse even faster.

But Lin Xia is different. She can maintain her transformed body for longer and longer. From the first day of training, she could only maintain it for one minute without disappearing, and now she can maintain it for five minutes without disappearing. She has been making progress.

This made Professor Oti feel good about her and at the same time he couldn't help but feel a little satisfied.

She is only in the first grade, and to be able to do this is truly a gift.

"Wait a minute," Professor Oti stopped Lin Xia, pondered for a while, and said, "I can feel that it's not that you can't outline the magic circle, but that you are stuck with insufficient mental power.

You are too young. Even if your mental power is far beyond that of your peers, you are still too young. The top priority now is to improve your mental power. "

Professor Oti made up his mind and said: "In this way, in the next few days, you can take potions to temporarily improve your mental power and see if you can reach the entry point. If it can be completed through temporary improvement, then I will continue to teach you."

She is not a pedantic person and must stick to the rules.

If it was too far off, she wouldn't say that.

But he could enter with just one step, and Professor Oti was willing to help Lin Xia cheat a little bit.

Lin Xia was originally thinking of how to get some wool from Quirrell to increase his mental power.

She also fell into a misunderstanding and did not expect that her mental power could be temporarily enhanced through potions.

She thanked Oti and said, "Thank you, Professor."

Professor Oti waved his hand: "It's also because you have met the conditions. Go back to the dormitory quickly!"

……

Another Potions class.

There are only two days left before the Christmas holiday, and the little wizard is completely restless.

Compared with other little wizards who are eager to return home, Harry is not.

Last week, Professor McGonagall came over to register the list of students staying at school for the holidays, and Harry signed it immediately.

He didn't feel sad at all and even thought it was the best Christmas he had ever had in his life.

Not only did he stay, but Ron and his twin brother also stayed because the Weasleys were going to Romania to visit their second son, Charlie.

"Honestly, I feel really sorry for some people," a Slytherin student said loudly in Potions class. "They have to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas because their families don't want them!"

Some Slytherin students were snickering and looking at Harry.

There are people in the school who admire Harry, and naturally there are people who hate him.

He looks so ordinary, and his performance in class is average, except for having a little talent for flying broomsticks.

But how could it be possible to defeat the mysterious man with just a broomstick?
Some young wizards felt that Harry was vain, while others felt that Harry was hiding his abilities and hiding his strength.

In any case, these little wizards don't like Harry very much, especially the Slytherin wizards.

They couldn't tolerate that Harry, the legendary hero, was so mediocre and refused the invitations of many noble families to make friends with poor Weasleys and Muggles!
So during class, they loved to watch Harry get into trouble and laugh when they caught him.

Harry weighed the pulverized vertebrae without expression, and ignored them. The more these people paid attention, the more they jumped around.

"So, this is Slytherin's style, taking advantage of the professor's absence to belittle students' families?"

Draco was grinding the vertebrae into powder, feeling a little grumpy.

He has been in a bad mood these past few days. He has not made any progress in the special training given by the dean.

This made him very anxious, fearing that he would not be able to participate in the operation with Lin Xia this time.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

Opportunities have been given to him, but he failed to seize them. This is so sad.

Draco unceremoniously turned on the taunting mode: "If this is Slytherin's style, then I'm glad I didn't join in. Is it the style of your college to be arrogant and arrogant?"

"What happened?"

Snape walked in from the classroom, just in time to hear what Draco said, and cast a gloomy look at him.

Draco replied calmly: "Nothing, Professor, I'm just teaching a few arrogant little bugs a lesson."
