The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 251 Patronus

"Have you been able to summon the patron saint of the flesh?"

Seeing Albert's reaction, Fred asked almost instinctively: "I remember that you have been practicing the Patronus Charm recently. It shouldn't take long to summon the Patronus of the flesh."

"This..." Albert noticed that all three of Fred were looking at him inquiringly, and he didn't know what to say.

"Try it, I think it should be an eagle." George moved his face closer and suggested with a smile: "I think your physical patron saint should be an eagle."

"Ahem, I haven't succeeded in summoning the Patronus of the flesh yet." Albert said with a little embarrassment, "It's just a puff of smoke right now."

"I don't believe it, but you are Albert, a real Gryffindor student. Of course the patron saint is a lion, how could it be an eagle." Lee Jordan also moved his face closer, with a look that you must be Lied to our expressions.

"I said, that's enough for the few of you." Albert stretched out his hand and pushed the three leaning away, and said quite speechlessly, "Can't the patron saint be other creatures? It must be a lion or an eagle."

"Give it a try, even if it's just a cloud of fog, you might be able to see a little prototype." Fred reminded, the three of them were really curious about what the answer would be.

Although the Patronus Charm is a very complicated and ancient spell, but the other party is Albert, who knows if he has secretly mastered this spell.

"Okay, call God's Guardian!" Albert took a deep breath and began to search for happy memories in his brain. He pulled out his wand and drew a circle in reverse, and said the Patronus Charm. However, Smoke did not form a physical Patronus.

"Look, the shape of the smoke doesn't look like an eagle at all. It seems a bit big in size, more like a Gryffindor lion." Lee Jordan happily announced his victory.

"No, that's just your guess, you have to wait until the physical Patronus is summoned!" Fred and George immediately retorted, however, Albert frowned slightly, the Patronus skill has been upgraded to level 2, but It is obviously a bit weird to fail to summon the patron saint of the flesh.

For the record, casters of the Patronus Charm must focus on recalling the happiest memory they can think of, and the more intense the memory's pleasure, the stronger the spell's effect.

Perhaps, I should try another happier memory. After all, the strength of the patron saint is related to whether my memory is happy or not.

Albert closed his eyes and recalled his mood when he found out that he had the panel. That was probably the happiest time for him.

On that day, Albert realized that he was no longer ordinary!
"What's the matter?" George noticed Albert's strangeness and asked a little worried, but found that Albert raised his wand again, drew a circle in reverse and whispered: "Guardian Guardian!"

This time, a silver griffin erupted from the tip of Albert's wand.

The three of them were all stunned, and looked at the silver griffin passing over their heads foolishly, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's so beautiful!"

"Haha!" Fred suddenly laughed loudly, and said to Lee Jordan, "We won, we won."

"Bastards, you obviously lost!" Lee Jordan pointed at the griffin above and angrily yelled at Fred, "You're talking about an eagle. Look, this thing is an eagle."

"Eagle head, you saw it just now, eagle head, is there any? It's an eagle head." Fred and George looked at each other, and said in unison: "Read it with me, eagle head, it is related to eagles, so, We won."

"Don't quibble, the griffin is not an eagle, just admit to me that you have lost, and swallow these multi-flavored beans." Li Qiaodan blushed angrily, and found that he couldn't beat Fred and George, so he Jumping up from his seat, he rushed towards Fred next to him, intending to convince him with his hands, and the carriage suddenly became a mess.

After seeing that his patron saint was a griffin, Albert's face darkened immediately.

"Is there any problem? Your face doesn't seem very pretty." The playful George noticed Albert's gloomy frown and couldn't help asking.

"Of course there is a problem. The griffin is a magical creature!" When Albert first spoke, Fred and Lee Jordan stopped playing and listened quietly to him continuing: "It is said that the wizard's guardian The god is the same as the Animagus, which means my Animagus would probably be a griffin in form."

"What is an Animagus?" Fred asked suspiciously.

"Stupid, animal transformation!" George reminded: "I still remember the first day Professor McGonagall turned into a cat."

"You still remember!" Lee Jordan looked like he had seen a ghost.

"Animagus refers to a wizard who can turn into a certain animal while retaining his own magical power." Albert gave the three science popularization.

"Oh, what's the problem?" Fred asked. "What Animagus is that?"

"The transformation of Animagus is usually limited to non-magic creatures." Albert explained helplessly: "The transformation of magical creatures such as phoenixes and fire dragons will bring unpredictable consequences."

"It is said that there is an essential difference in the operation of wizard magic and magic creature magic." Albert thought for a while and then explained: "You know goblins and house-elves, goblins have their own goblin magic, and house-elves also have their own. The house-elves' own magic, they are not part of our wizarding system of magic, although they can all use wands."

The three exchanged glances with each other, obviously not understanding Albert's words.

"Taking house-elves as an example, Hogwarts College prohibits Apparation, but house-elves can Apparate at any time." Albert gave an example casually, "Hogwarts prohibits Apparation only for wizards. Magic, but not the magic of the house elves, this is the difference in the magic system."

"Wow, you actually know these things." The three looked at Albert in surprise.

"Remember to keep this matter secret," Albert reminded.

The three nodded in unison.

"But does this have anything to do with that Arnie?" Fred scratched his head and asked in puzzlement.

"Principal Dumbledore used to be a professor of transfiguration." Albert knew that they couldn't understand, so he continued: "I checked the records of Animagus in this century in England, and there were only seven of them, and there were nine in the last century. , there is no Dumbledore’s name. Of course, illegal Animagus is not ruled out, but I once asked Professor McGonagall what the headmaster’s Animagus is. At that time, Professor McGonagall told me that the headmaster’s The patron saint is the phoenix."

"The phoenix is ​​a magical creature, so you mean that Principal Dumbledore is not an Animagus?" Lee Jordan asked uncertainly.

"That's right. Magical creatures are not within the transformation range of Animagus. Principal Dumbledore should be very aware of this, so after discovering that the patron saint is a phoenix, he may simply give up Animagus." Transformation, otherwise, do you think that with the talent and ability of Principal Dumbledore, how could it be impossible to learn the transformation of Animagus?" Albert's face was not very good, because there was an Animagus in his task list Sri Lanka's mission, which means that this mission may be a trap.

The three of them can now understand that Albert's patron saint is the griffin, and the griffin is a magical creature, so this means that Albert may have to give up becoming a griffin like Principal Dumbledore. Animagus is gone.

Because once the transformation fails, unpredictable consequences may be suffered. No one knows that they will die, but still try their best to get up, isn't that courting death?
"Even if you can't become an Animagus, it still won't prevent you from becoming a great wizard like Dumbledore. Didn't the headmaster just give up?" Fred comforted.

"No, I still have a chance. It is said that the patron saint will change, as long as he experiences a certain degree of mental shock or emotional upheaval," Albert recalled the information related to the patron saint spell. As far as he knew, haha There seems to be a similar case in Lie Porter's novels.

"Hey, you are too cruel to yourself!" The three of them were all dumbfounded when they heard this, "Is it really necessary to do this to this extent?"

"I just don't want to give up the possibility of becoming an Animagus." Albert thought for a while and said, "I need to write a letter to Professor McGonagall and seek her advice."

"I think you might need an owl," Fred reminded.

"Open the window, Shera will appear, and it will always come back to me when I need it." Albert took out the parchment from the suitcase and began to write a letter to Professor McGonagall.
