Chapter 37 Libraries
The Hogwarts Library is located on the second floor of the castle.
There are hundreds of bookshelves here, each of which is long and tall, and thousands of books are stored on them.
There are constantly students standing on the ladder that can move automatically, looking for books on various bookshelves.
There are long desks in the room covered with red carpets for students to read and study.
The bookshelves criss-crossed, forming a narrow passage. In the last corner of the library, there was a part of the forbidden book section, where the bookshelves were tightly locked by the librarian Mrs. Irma Pince with an arm-thick iron chain. Without the permission of the professors, no student could borrow these forbidden books.
There is a hall-like magic above the library, and different scenery effects appear in the sky with the outside sky.
Whenever the outside is not sunny and full of light, candles lit by tens of thousands of candles will automatically appear on the ceiling, illuminating the entire library with light, which is convenient for students to read and study.
The magic will gradually fade away when the library is closed at eight o'clock in the evening, and the library will be plunged into darkness. Mrs. Pince will also close the library, and the library will not reopen until eight o'clock in the morning the next day.
McGuffin leaned on the table with both hands and squeezed his temples vigorously, relieving the headache and nausea caused by a lot of reading. There were books taller than himself piled up beside him, all of which were related to transfiguration and magic theory.
"Development and Interpretation of Modern Witchcraft"
"Advanced Discussion of Transfiguration: Structure, Transformation, and Reduction"
……
He frowned, a little downcast.
MacGuffin simply dismisses History of Magic (Mr.Come to the library and look for books about Transfiguration to answer your questions.
He flipped through the description of Transfiguration in the third volume of "Three Conjectures on Magic Theory after the 21st Century" that was placed on the table.
"From the development of magic to the present, it is generally accepted that the success of a wizard's spellcasting is related to five factors: a wizard with magic power, a wand that belongs to you, correct gestures for casting spells, correct spelling words, and the determination in the mind to cast spells. If you have all these five elements, you will naturally be able to cast magic successfully."
"People think that these five factors are indispensable, but from Transfiguration we have been able to prove that the key to casting magic is the wizard's magic power and willingness to cast spells..."
"For example, the most difficult magic in Transfiguration [Animagus], once this magic is successfully learned, you can turn into a fixed animal at will. But it doesn't rely on wands and spells."
McGuffin focused, he finally saw something about what he wanted from this book full of conjectures.
"...Smart wizards always don't stick to the use of magic spells, but create magic according to their own minds... In addition, when some young wizards cast the transformation technique for the first time, even if the gestures and spells are all correct, they often encounter a problem that the transformation returns to its original shape at the last moment..."
correct!That's it, that's the problem, how should I solve it?
McGuffin couldn't wait to turn to the next page.
"This question proves the conjecture raised by the author at the beginning, that is, spells and gestures are not decisive elements for the success of casting a spell, but the determination to cast a spell is the most important thing to feel the effect the spell wants to present before casting a spell."
Hmm~~hmm, the determination to cast spells, what else.
McGuffin looked down.
A drawing of someone who has transformed himself into a five-legged monster.
Next in large black letters it says
——Interpretation of [Gamp's Law of Deformation]
This is the end?Starting another chapter? !
McGuffin was a little dumbfounded, he turned the pages quickly and unbelievingly.
boom!
McGuffin closed the book angrily. At this moment, he felt a kind of malice and insult to his IQ from this book.
What are you wasting all your time and energy doing?And also absent from class!
Mrs. Pince almost kicked him out of the library when she heard the sound, and finally gave him a verbal lesson when McGuffin admitted his mistake and had a good attitude.
"It's about one o'clock now. The History of Magic class has already ended, and there is probably no lunch in the hall."
His stomach squirmed and made noises. McGuffin was very hungry. He ignored the strange eyes of the students around him, and lay down on the table decadently, holding his head tightly.
Full of frustration.
Someone sat down next to McGuffin, but he ignored it.
"McGuffin, you read the wrong book!" A triumphant voice sounded in McGuffin's ear.
MacGuffin raised his head—here he was—with thick, shaggy short hair, piercing brown eyes, big die teeth, and a proud expression.
It's Hermione Granger.
"What do you know? I'm a little hypoglycemic right now, don't mess with me!" McGuffin turned around, with her back to Hermione.
He is not in the mood to pay attention to this little brat with a face full of wanting to be competitive.
"Don't you just want to know why you can't perform Transfiguration?" Hermione said proudly, and she walked around to McGuffin from behind.
McGuffin stood up, looked into the other person's eyes, and said in a harsh tone, "How do you know?"
"Hmph, isn't that obvious?" said Hermione, with a tone of maddening superiority.
"What's obvious?" McGuffin asked her in a calm tone as much as possible, with two blue veins popping out on his forehead, hopping.
"You can tell what you want to do from the books you read and your performance in the Transfiguration class." Hermione pointed at McGuffin haughtily in a natural tone.
——Yeah!This little devil!I'm furious!
He finally understood why Ron was always getting angry with Hermione in less than a week since term started.
This is another Emily Albert, whose emotional quotient has been transferred to IQ, and only sees what she wants, regardless of others.
"I can't do it, I can't do it. The other party is a little girl. In terms of mental age, I am almost two or three times older, so I can't be angry with children!"
McGuffin consoled himself in this way.
So, he cheekily asked: "I'm very sorry! Then Miss Granger, please guide me why I can't perform the Transfiguration."
"It's not easy. You've read the wrong book. You might as well re-learn Chapter 3 of "The Theory of Magic" about the factors that determine the success of casting magic, and Mr. Swich's concluding description of transfiguration in the preface of "Basic Transfiguration Guide."
Hermione unceremoniously directly denied McGuffin's efforts in the morning, and ignored McGuffin's ugly face and then taught him in a high tone.
"I thought what were you doing in the library after you were absent from class? It turned out that you were just doing some wasted effort. In addition, I told Professor McGonagall about your absenteeism [History of Magic], and she wanted you to visit her office. You didn't go to class because of those stupid rumors..." Hermione kept talking to herself in McGuffin's ear, criticizing his absenteeism in a condescending tone.
Ahhh!The bastard!I can't take it anymore.
McGuffin took his notebook and pen, and left the library in a hurry. He was afraid that if he stayed with Hermione again, he would really become the rumored 'Dark Lord II'
——wanted to use black magic to teach her a lesson. (Although there is no black magic of curses.)
"What are you doing! I haven't told you yet, the reason why you can't cast Transfiguration." Hermione quickly followed McGuffin to annoy him.
"I went to Professor McGonagall's office to surrender, because I am the heir to the Dark Lord, and I was absent from class again!" McGuffin replied angrily, and he strode away directly, throwing Hermione away.
