The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts
Chapter 73 073. Scott's Transfiguration Progress
In a blink of an eye, it was Saturday.
The first Quidditch match of the school year was held on this day.
In the dormitory, Scott was lying on the table, writing something on parchment with a feather pen.
The black raven stood motionless beside his hand.
His two roommates were discussing the upcoming Quidditch match.
"The first game of the year is Gryffindor vs. Slytherin!" Eddie said expectantly.
Roger's voice was also very excited, "It's just right, let Gryffindor try out Slytherin's strength after being equipped with a new broom!"
At this time, Eddie walked to Scott and called him, "Scott, the game is about to start, let's go!"
"Eddie! Roger!"
The raven on Scott's table came to life, it walked around proudly, and began to repeatedly shout the names of Eddie and Roger.
"Eddie! Roger! Eddie! Roger..."
"Oh!" Eddie covered his ears, "Shut it up, Scott!"
Scott picked up the wand on the table and waved it, and the raven immediately quieted down.
He looked up at Eddie, "The match between Gryffindor and Slytherin?"
Eddie nodded, "Let's go, today's match will be exciting!"
He smiled maliciously, "Think about it, Gryffindor and Slytherin, they all hate each other! Especially Potter and Malfoy! I dare say the number of fouls in this game will break the record!"
But Scott shook his head, looking uninterested.
"I won't go." He said, and looked at Roger again, "Of course, I will watch when Ravenclaw plays."
After that, he lowered his head and continued to write.
Eddie persuaded him again, "Oh! Come on, man!"
"Sorry, I'm a little busy." Scott didn't look up.
"Forget it, Eddie."
Roger said a little unhappy.
"Scott is busy studying, Milton has already gone to the classical music club, and these two guys don't like Quidditch that much!"
"Okay." Eddie's tone was a little helpless.
When Scott finished writing a paragraph and turned around, the two had already walked out of the dormitory.
Scott watched the door of the dormitory close, shook his head, and continued to write.
In the past few days, he has been thinking about what Dumbledore said to him.
Magic is the power of belief.
This sentence sounds very ordinary. Because after the young wizards came to Hogwarts, the professors often emphasized in class that those who recite spells must have firm faith.
Scott has long understood in practice that if you are hesitant about the spell, the probability of magic failure will be greatly increased.
Although Dumbledore's words are common sense, they still gave him a lot of inspiration.
It was this sentence that made Scott realize that he had fallen into a thinking error again.
In the past, when he was thinking about how to make those "works" act autonomously, the first reference he thought of was the "Stone Pillars" shown in the large wizard chess level and the final battle set by Professor McGonagall in the "original book" in 1991.
These two magics are undoubtedly superb uses of transfiguration.
Let's not talk about the "Stone Pillars" for the time being, it's too complicated. Scott even suspected that the guardian magic was related to the Hogwarts Castle itself.
The wizard chess levels seem to be simpler, they are just large-scale automatic wizard chess.
Scott has been thinking about why they can still play chess with outsiders who break into the levels after being separated from Professor McGonagall's command.
In his original guess, to achieve this level, it is necessary to set up a "program" for Transfiguration that can interact with the intruders.
Such a "program" is extremely complicated, and even makes him unable to start.
After all, he was not a programmer in his previous life, and it is impossible for him to use magic to create an artificial intelligence after reincarnation.
In fact, when he thought of this, he knew that his thoughts had entered a misunderstanding again.
Professor McGonagall certainly could not be a programmer.
But Scott could not figure out how to use Transfiguration to create a "work" similar to "artificial intelligence".
He can use Transfiguration to transform various animals, but he cannot make them have thoughts and memories.
After getting into a dead end, Scott thought about trying black magic.
After all, only black magic has an in-depth study of the soul.
He even imagined the taboo method of transforming human souls and stuffing them into his own "works" of transformation.
Of course, this was just his unfounded conjecture.
However, the idea of "finding the way to develop Transfiguration through studying black magic" did appear in his mind many times.
If it weren't for his strong self-control and his usual cautious habits, he would have gotten started long ago.
Until Dumbledore woke him up.
Magic is the power of belief.
Yes, he actually ignored the common sense that he had repeatedly emphasized since he came into contact with magic.
When wizards cast spells, they don't have to think about what principle makes them get the result. They usually just need to firmly tell themselves "I want" and "I can do it."
Just like turning a piece of wood into a piece of stone, do wizards have to clearly understand how the molecular atoms that make up the wood are transformed into stone?
No, no!
This is a truth that Scott has long understood.
He remembered what he said to Cedric some time ago-
"I don't need to use my brain to remember what elements those different materials are made of, or think about complex issues such as molecules and atoms."
"I only need to use my magic to remember that feeling. Different objects will show different feelings under the perception of magic. When using Transfiguration, following this feeling in memory can successfully change their materials."
What I have understood for a long time, I have once again fallen into a thinking error when I further study and apply it.
Scott was very upset.
Is this also the negative impact of the memory of the past life on this life?
He could only sigh like this.
After getting out of the thinking error, he quickly figured out what he should do.
If you want your Transfiguration "work" to have the ability to act independently, the first thing you need to do is to clearly outline everything about this "work" in your mind -
including appearance, ability, behavior pattern, and even its memory and personality.
The more detailed and thorough, the better.
As Professor McGonagall emphasized in the first Transfiguration class, if you want to turn a match into a needle, you must first clearly outline the appearance of a needle in your mind.
Yes, the core essence of Transfiguration has always been that simple.
But Scott had thought that advanced transfiguration was too complicated, and thus fell into a misunderstanding.
After thinking about this clearly, he wrote two paragraphs in his notebook.
[If I want to use transfiguration to create a talking raven, I only need to think clearly about what this raven looks like and what it will say, and then wave the wand firmly.
I don't need to figure out the principle of raven talking, magic will achieve my idea. ]
After Scott finished writing these two paragraphs, he immediately put it into practice.
So from the past two days, there was a very noisy raven in their dormitory.
Although it would only shout out their names when Scott's roommates approached it.
But this is also a kind of interaction.
Scott saw the progress of his transfiguration through this raven.
Next, as long as he added more "settings" to this raven and firmly believed in its existence, he could get a smarter raven.
Isn't it just about creating a character?
Scott felt that he could do it.
So, on this busy weekend when Hogwarts held a Quidditch match, Scott stayed alone in his dormitory to write a biography for his raven.
