Hogwarts: Starting from Creating the Lord of the Rings

After dinner, Artel went back to the bedroom.

The class starts again tomorrow, Artel glanced at the date, tomorrow is the last day of March, and the system permissions are about to be updated.

After this period of fermentation, the world acceptance of Gandalf and Sauron has also reached the standard, so Artel is also looking forward to the rewards after tomorrow's system update.

And just like that, with excitement, Artel fell asleep.

In the Transfiguration class the next day, Professor McGonagall let the little wizards practice on their own as usual, and then called Hermione and Artel to ask them about the duel club yesterday.

It turned out that during dinner in the auditorium last night, Professor McGonagall heard Professor Flitwick compliment Hermione, so he asked carefully, and only then did he know what happened at that time.

And Hermione's application of Transfiguration in the duel, especially the practice of turning Penello's sleeve into a snake made Professor McGonagall feel very interesting, quite a bit like the first time he saw Artel using Transfiguration to deal with the basilisk Feel.

After learning about Professor McGonagall's intentions, Hermione directly spread her hands and said:

"That's what Artel taught me... The trick of turning a sleeve into a snake is something I've learned from him."

Professor McGonagall showed such an expression as she expected, and looked at Artel. She had already guessed that this matter was inseparable from Artel, so she called him over too-.

Artel couldn't hide at first sight, so he moved out his own set of theories:

"The main function of the traditional Transfiguration in a duel is to defend against other magic, and the means of attack is to give life to puppets such as stone statues and control them.

"Or the metamorphosis branch - like Af*ck Gus, or turning someone into a pig, a mouse in battle... but this method is not advisable because it consumes a lot of mana... and if The opponent is a powerful wizard, so this is almost impossible.

Professor McGonagall nodded, because these points that Artel said are almost the most mainstream views and applications of Transfiguration in the wizarding world. Only very few wizards have mastered the application of higher-level Transfiguration, but that is also their exclusive ability. .

Seeing that Professor McGonagall agreed with his opinion, Artel smiled lightly and said solemnly:

"However, I think the main function of Transfiguration is not to defend and manipulate puppets, nor to create magical barriers, or to change one's appearance..."

"The biggest role of polymorphism should be to enrich the means of wizards' attacks.

Seeing Professor Mike looking at him with interest, Artel raised his wand and demonstrated:

"Transfiguration is, in my opinion, the most important of all the disciplines at Hogwarts because it is unique in its enhancement of wizarding power."

"Just like that."

With a slight tap of the wand in Artel's hand, a cup on Professor Mack's desk instantly turned into a trap with sharp barbs.

"It's a tool that Muggles use to hunt wild animals, it's called a trap.

Seeing Professor McGonagall looking at the trap with curiosity, Artel realized that she probably didn't know this Muggle thing, so she picked up a wooden pointer and put it on the trap.

"Snapped!"

The animal traps snapped together, clipping the wooden pointer into two sections.

"If you turn your opponent's shoes into this thing during battle..."

Artel looked at Professor McGonagall, and he saw surprise and thought in Professor McGonagall's eyes.

"If you think the trap is too complicated, you can make it simpler."

Artel's wand clicked on the trap, and under the curious eyes of Professor McGonagall and Hermione, the trap turned into a pegboard.

"A piece of wood with dozens of sharp nails embedded in it, the structure is very simple, and the requirements for polymorphism and magic are less, but it is not bad. 95

"still got more…"

Artel glanced at Hermione, embarrassed to experiment on her:

"When fighting, you can conjure ropes to bind the opponent... If you are more aggressive, you can conjure thorny vines, or barbed iron ropes. When fighting, you can suddenly turn the ground under the enemy's feet into puddles and swamps of mud. , even a little disgusting turned into a cesspool..."

"A little more ruthlessness can turn the pool into a sulfuric acid pool, and the swamp into magma..."

"In short, Transfiguration can greatly enrich the wizard's fighting methods, and it should shine in battle.

Artel looked at Professor McGonagall, who was stunned, and continued:

"Even if a wizard knows enough about Muggle weapons, they can conjure powerful weapons."

Artel tried again, and the pegboard on the table became a flat iron lump.

"This thing is called a landmine... I've seen it in my house... If something is stepped on it, it will explode. It contains thousands of steel balls, and its power is much stronger than an explosion spell, enough to blow a person to pieces...

Artel waved his wand again, and the mine turned into a delicate pistol, the same kind of PPK pistol that Artel had used in his shooting practice.

"It's called a pistol... Pull the trigger to fire a bullet, much more powerful than a normal spell."

"In addition to pistols, there are rifles, sniper rifles, bazooka...Professor McGonagall, do you know what it means to have a firearm with infinite ammunition? Do you know what a mobile infinite arsenal means?"

･･･ Flowers ･･･

"If a wizard can understand the structure and principles of [Little Boy]... tsk, it seems a little difficult..."

A strange light flashed in Artel's eyes, causing Professor McGonagall to break into a cold sweat.

And Hermione was even more stunned. She came from a Muggle family and knew a little about these weapons. At the last New Year's Day party, she was still shooting at Artel's house. However, if you want to use polymorphism to conjure a pistol, you need to have a good understanding of the internal structure and principle of the pistol...

What did Artel learn when he was at home...he can even conjure landmines?

As for sniper rifles, rocket launchers and the like, Hermione has only heard of those things in the war described in the textbook...

"Well...I think, I think you're right, Artel."

After listening to Artel's bizarre ideas, Professor McGonagall thought it was outrageous at first, but then it seemed reasonable...

Because Transfiguration can indeed be used that way. It's just that if you want to perfectly grasp the timing in battle and turn the enemy's things into the props you want, in addition to the requirements for your own magic and spiritual power, you also need to have a very high level of knowledge in Transfiguration.

But even if the conditions are harsh, it at least provides a direction.

"Artel, I think you can write a paper and publish it in Transfiguration Today." Professor Mike said seriously.

Transfiguration Today is an academic journal focusing on the latest developments in the field of Transfiguration, and it often publishes papers by some of the more prominent and knowledgeable scholars in the field of Transfiguration.

In addition, "Transfiguration Today" will also select the most promising newcomer award, awarded to Hogwarts students who are particularly good at Transfiguration. Both Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall received this award during their studies at Hogwarts.

"In my spare time, I will help the magazine to revise some articles, so I have a good relationship with the editor-in-chief of the magazine... I think, if you are willing to publish your ideas, you will definitely win the award for the most promising newcomer. 35 Professor McGonagall's face is full of faces. Looking at Artel with a smile, she said firmly:

"Your opinion will change the status quo of the application of Transfiguration in duels...and even create a new genre of dueling, which is very helpful for improving the strength of wizards."

"And you will become a famous figure in the wizarding world. It seems that I had a good idea before. If you want, you can take my place after graduation. I think the course of Transfiguration will shine in your hands. of." Mountain.
