The years of welding at Hogwarts

A real man lives between heaven and earth, how can he bow down easily just for a bowl of rice!

Without even a word of thanks, Marcus, who was already starving, snatched the bowl of porridge from Ginny's hand and gulped down the porridge.

The scalding temperature did not affect Marcus's eating speed at all.

At that moment, when the satisfying feeling of filling his empty stomach finally reached his brain, Marcus was about to cry.

"It's so fragrant!"

While scooping at the hot porridge in the bowl, Marcus mumbled his praises.

"If it's not enough, there's plenty over there." Ginny said with a smile, pointing to a bonfire in the distance. A huge clay pot was placed on the fire, boiling something, and wisps of white steam were rising from the pot.

Looking at Ginny's leaving back, Marcus Flint, who had already finished the vegetable porridge in his bowl, raised his arm and wiped his mouth casually with his sleeve.

"The Weasleys..."

Their whole family are typical Gryffindors. Logically speaking, seeing someone like them, who came from Slytherin House, get into trouble should be the thing that these Gryffindors would be most happy to see.

Why would they come to help me, even though it was just a bowl of vegetable porridge...

I can’t figure it out. I can’t understand it at all.

Considering Marcus Flint's head filled with muscles and his petty and vindictive mind, it might be difficult for him to figure this matter out.

But that doesn't matter.

It doesn’t matter what an insignificant pawn like Marcus thinks. What matters is that the goal that Noah and his team hoped to achieve has been largely achieved, and that is enough.

This scene did not only happen to Marcus, similar things were happening everywhere in the camp.

Those unfortunate students who had been hungry for nine meals in three days during the Forbidden Forest Survival Challenge because they could not get enough food and were now seeing stars, all received help.

The people who came to help them were very rare. They were actually low-grade students whom they had previously looked down upon and considered to be a hindrance to their survival in the wilderness. There was also a natural gap between them in terms of affiliation with the academy.

The atmosphere in the camp gradually relaxed from the stagnation when the two teams met each other at the beginning, and later turned into a completely happy atmosphere.

Even after their stomachs were filled and the students began to feel like chatting, the situation in the camp began to develop in a strange direction.

A seventh-year Slytherin student was surrounded by two Hufflepuff students who had just entered the campus, and a little Gryffindor lion. The four of them belonged to three different houses, but at the moment they were sitting at the same table, happily eating skewers.

A little eagle who always thought that Hufflepuff house was a group of idiots sat quietly at another table, watching the hospitable little badgers constantly piling the roasted pork belly on the grill into the plate in front of him.

"That's enough! That's enough! I can't eat any more!"

Although his face was gloomy, there wasn't even a hint of disgust on it.

Professor McGonagall, who had been teaching for decades but had never seen such a scene, looked at the messy camp and couldn't help but smile on her wrinkled face.

"Is this your real goal, Noah?"

However, Noah, who the older cat girl was thinking about, was unable to answer her question at the moment.

……

At this moment, Noah is like a giant panda locked in a cage. Well, considering the scarcity of the phoenix in the magical world, Noah's rarity should be even higher than that of the giant panda.

After all, besides being a genuine phoenix, he also has another unique identity——

According to reliable records in the history of magic, or to be more precise, according to the memory of old man Nicolas Flamel, he was the first wizard to master the magic Animagus in the history of more than 600 years.

Going back further, old man Nicolas Flamel had not yet been born, and he didn't know whether anyone in the magical world before he was born had completed this supreme transformation spell that was almost as difficult as ascending to heaven.

At least in the more than six hundred years that he has been alive, no other wizard has ever done it.

The appearance of the first magical Animagus naturally attracted the curiosity of many people.

Draco, Shirley and others surrounded Noah like a group of curious babies. Neville even stretched out his hand, saying that he wanted to compete with Noah in strength.

In terms of strength, Naville has always been very confident. Among the five founding giants of Kamar-Taj, he is the strongest as he has been training his body with lightning.

Even Noah, the mentor who taught him the lightning body training, was no match for him if he only talked about strength without fighting skills.

However, this time he was easily crushed by Noah in terms of strength.

Noah simply stretched out a finger. No matter how hard Nawei, the strongman from Ying country, tried, he couldn't bend Noah's finger. Noah even twisted his whole body when he casually hooked his finger.

"Amazing! Is this what makes magical Animagus so special?"

Neville's eyes were shining brightly, almost turning into two shining four-pointed stars that broke through his eye sockets. "Noah, tell me, is there a possibility that I can master the magic Animagus like you?"

"My requirements are not high. I don't want to turn into a phoenix like you. I think Thunderbird is pretty good.

It suits me. ”

After hearing Neville's words, before Noah could even open his mouth to answer, Hermione beside him forced an awkward smile.

Regarding the question raised by Neville, Miss Know-It-All, who has been tutoring Neville in all subjects except Herbology and Magic Attack and Defense, is the most qualified person to speak on it.

"Animagus is the most advanced magic in the field of Transfiguration."

The top student Little Beaver crossed his arms, "This magic requires extremely high talent in Transfiguration. Even though I haven't learned the field of human body transformation yet..."

Having said that, Hermione glared fiercely at the human-shaped turkey next to her, and her tone couldn't help but be a little frustrated.

"Unlike some guys, Merlin opened a door for him and helped him knock down the wall at the same time."

As a top student, Hermione has always had full confidence in her ability to study, and this confidence is based on the fact that she has always had excellent academic performance since she started school.

From childhood to adulthood, whether in a Muggle school or as a Muggle-born girl, she sat in the classroom of Hogwarts School with a group of wizards to be examined by professors.

Her grades have always been among the best.

But this confidence was shattered in front of Noah, the cheater. No matter how hard he studied, even if he secretly hid in the quilt to read books after curfew at night, even his theoretical scores were easily several tens of points behind Noah.

However, when it comes to turning theory into practice, my performance can never surpass that guy Noah.

It's as if this guy was born for magic.

While others were still struggling with casting spells with sound and a wand, this abominable guy had even mastered casting spells without sound and a wand, and was using it quite skillfully.

The image of Noah casting the Luminescence Charm without a wand on that rugged mountain road that night when he first stepped into Hogwarts Castle is still deeply engraved in Hermione's mind.

You know, Noah hadn't even started school at that time!

Thinking of this, Hermione became more and more angry and raised her hand to punch Noah. The fist hit Noah's arm without any pain, without using much strength.

"Uh……"

Not knowing why Hermione suddenly got angry, this sudden attack left Noah a little confused.

Compared to Hermione, Shirley, who is the type who prefers to lie down and is very self-aware, seems much calmer.

Ever since she learned her true origins and that she was actually one of the descendants of the war hero couple, James Potter and Lily Potter, and that the stupid, incompetent pervert Harry was her brother, Shirley felt that her future was bleak and hopeless.

Although Shirley respected the Potters, this did not conflict with her hatred for that stupid Harry Potter.

I heard from my father that my talent in potions was inherited from my biological mother, and as for Defense against the Dark Arts...

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Snape had to accept that the fact that Shirley was able to master the Sharpshooter Curse so quickly was actually largely related to James' talent in defense against dark magic.

Of course, a more important factor was that he taught well. As for James's talent, Snape could only admit that he had 12% of the credit.

No more.

No, considering that James gave birth to a precious goddaughter for him, Snape could barely increase his allowance to 15%.

Shirley was very clear that her talents were only in the two subjects of Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts. As for some other courses, such as Transfiguration, she did not inherit much talent from her biological father who mastered Animagus, and her performance could only be considered average.

Moreover, such a troublesome magic, when Shirley thought about having to hold a mandrake leaf in her mouth for such a long time, she couldn't muster up even the slightest interest in it.

"Hermione."

Shirley, who was considerate, pushed her best friend's arm and said, "People's talents cannot be generalized. That guy can no longer be considered a human being. I would believe that he was Merlin's illegitimate son."

But her words of comfort had no effect on Hermione at all.

"You don't have to be like me and go straight to the point without going through the Animagus preparation ritual and take huge risks to complete the Animagus transformation."

Noah showed a thoughtful look, "You can first select your final transformation target magical animal, and then establish a connection between you and it by fusing the final transformation target's bloodline."

"After completing the blood fusion ritual, you will be able to use this subtle connection to begin experimentally practicing the magical Animagus transformation of certain body parts."

As he spoke, Noah was rummaging through his storage space for the stack of notes he had taken when he was about to complete the transformation. Soon, seven or eight thick notebooks with a total of thousands of pages appeared in front of Hermione.

"These are the notes I made when I was studying Transfiguration. You can take a look at them."

Under the greedy gaze of the little beaver, who was almost burying his eyes in the notebook, Noah turned the notebook in front of him to

She pushed in the direction.

"Thank you, Noah!"

In just a second, the little beaver's mood changed from gloomy to sunny, and he happily accepted Noah's precious notes.

"The magical animal blood you have merged with will guide you in completing the transformation while you are practicing. It will also play a protective role, preventing you from experiencing irreversible major transformation accidents while practicing transformation."

Gwen also joined the topic at this time, "Is this your personal inference, or do you have sufficient rigorous evidence to prove that the blood of magical creatures does have such an effect?"

Noah pulled the corner of his mouth slightly awkwardly at this half-baked magician and great scientist who always thinks with rigorous scientific thinking, "If I say this is the feeling that sprouted in my heart when I was transforming that day, would you believe it?"

"I believe that a magician's sixth sense is always surprisingly accurate."

Gwen's sudden belief in idealism directly confused Noah.

Among all the people present, he was the only one who mastered the magic Animagus, so Noah did not discuss this issue too deeply with Hermione, but only stayed on a very superficial level.

However, Neville, who was listening silently at the side, still became confused with circles in his eyes. From beginning to end, he only understood one thing.

"So, the first step of the magical Animagus is to fuse the blood of the object of transformation? Just like you and Sister Fox? Then how many thunderbirds do I have to kill to get that much blood?"

Noah was stunned by Neville's first words.

In order to complete the magic Animagus, this heinous guy Noah was so cruel that he drew 4,000 milliliters of blood from Fox. Without Noah's specific explanation, this matter has been passed down by word of mouth among professors, and many outrageous versions have emerged.

In fact, Noah didn't draw that much blood, but the professors at Hogwarts didn't know it at all.

They only saw Noah taking out bottle after bottle of phoenix blood. The total amount of blood in the ten bottles was enough to replace all the blood in Noah's body.

Noah explained with a gloomy face that the source of the blood was mostly from cultivation and replication, but seeing that everyone around him except Gwen had suspicious looks, Noah gave up struggling, knowing that this matter could not be explained.

Forget it. Lord Shafulin has taken a lot of blame, so he doesn't need this one.

After hearing Noah's analysis of the transformation steps of the magical Animagus, Draco, who had been silent from the beginning, gradually brightened his shifty eyes as he listened.

"But isn't blood fusion a dark magic ritual that has long been banned?"

Is this a black magic ritual?

Originally, the little beaver was still looking through the part about blood fusion in Noah's notes, thinking about what kind of magical animal to choose to have blood fusion with himself.

When she heard that this thing belonged to the category of dark magic, Hermione, who could never tolerate even a grain of sand in her eyes, immediately snapped the thick notebook in her hand shut.

"That's simply because the failure rate of this magic ritual is too high. Blood fusion can bring great power to the fusionist, but an unsuccessful ritual can lead to extremely serious consequences."

Noah shrugged his shoulders. "Death is the best outcome. The most terrible outcome is to become a half-human, half-beast that has lost its mind."

"If unfortunately the one being merged is a magical animal with a relatively long lifespan, such as the immortal phoenix, then the soul of the merged person will be trapped in a strange new body for all eternity.

The irresponsible words of the unworthy Lord Shafulin made the little beaver take a deep breath, and she grabbed Noah's sleeve with a little excitement.

"Then why did you do such a dangerous thing in the first place!"

Patting Little Beaver's hand to signal her to relax, Noah spread out his palm and said, "Haven't I succeeded now? And I am confident enough about the blood fusion."

The blood fusion rituals designed by wizards have always had a major flaw that cannot be remedied, which is that they have not fully taken into account the human body's rejection.

However, do you know about Muggle black technology?

Before accepting the blood fusion, a part of one's own cells and the cells of the fusion target are collected in advance, and the two are perfectly fused together through biotechnology.

Since the fusion process does not take place in the body of the person being fused, no matter how many times it fails, it will not have the slightest impact on the body of the person being fused.

No, it still has an impact.

After all, having blood drawn is quite painful, and drawing too much may cause anemia.

The perfectly fused cells are cultured and replicated, and then made into medicine.

Just like in the world of The Amazing Spider-Man, Richard Parker fused his son's genes with the genes of a spider to create a spider serum that only Peter Parker can use without side effects, thus making Peter Spider-Man.

Harry Osborn is due to genetic discomfort

He turned into the Green Goblin.

With Gwen's extremely advanced biotechnology involved in the blood fusion ceremony, Noah was able to let go with confidence and realize the magic he had envisioned.

It is no exaggeration to say that Noah's magic Animagus was able to be completed with at least half of the credit going to the injection of Phoenix serum made by Gwen, and the remaining half was shared equally between him and Fox.
