Chapter 69
Deveraux slowly raised his eyes.
As his eyes swept across.
He seemed to have crossed the barrier of time and space.
He witnessed the entire process of these stone statues since their birth.
From the initial carving.
To being cast with various complex magic spells by many great professors and principals of Hogwarts.
Then they silently guarded this secret place.
Spent one long dark night after another.
Although it was only very
Suddenly Deveraux had a very deep understanding of the stone pillars in front of him.
He was also shocked by the history of Hogwarts spanning thousands of years.
Staring at the stone pillars in front of him in a daze.
"Deveraux, what's wrong with you? Have you consumed too much magic power? It's best to take a rest. The state of exhaustion of magic power is not very comfortable."
Professor McGonagall walked up and asked with concern.
Deveraux tilted his head slightly to look at Professor McGonagall.
Shake his head slightly.
"Professor, I'm fine. I just suddenly had an idea. Why don't we let them transform into real warriors? I mean, they look like stones, and they don't seem to be very flexible."
Professor McGonagall laughed dumbly.
Completely revitalize the stone pillars?
This is quite difficult!
Because this is a stone statue carved from extremely powerful magical materials.
It is very difficult to completely revitalize one of them through Transfiguration.
This is not like the activation and transformation of a wooden table into a pig.
It is extremely difficult to use Transfiguration to control items with powerful magic.
Only people with extremely high talent.
People with extremely strong insight can do this.
Can do this.
McGonagall has only seen it in Dumbledore.
That's why Professor McGonagall has always used a semi-activated method to control the stone pillars.
And Deveraux still knows too little about the stone pillars.
If they really fight.
Then you can see how flexible they are!
But Professor McGonagall didn't stop Deveraux.
Let him try.
Anyway, this kid has given her too many surprises today.
Let him try again.
As he said this, Deveraux walked towards a stone statue of a war horse.
Put the wand back on his waist.
Gently put his hands on the stone statue.
The moment he put his hands on it.
It seemed as if a ripple flowed on the stone statue.
Some stone powder was even attracted to Deveraux's hands.
He slowly chanted a spell.
The stone statue vibrated with it.
But what was different from before was.
This horse was actually getting smaller!
The war horse, which was nearly 1.8 meters tall, gradually shrank into a pony that was less than 1.4 meters tall.
What was even more shocking was that this horse was coming to life.
Its body gradually became soft and elastic from hard stone.
Its hair also showed a natural luster.
The pony looked at the person in front of it with its docile big eyes.
Deveraux grinned.
"The experiment was successful!"
He stroked the pony's head with his hand.
Professor McGonagall was stunned again.
Did the statue come alive?
No way!
Could it be that this kid's talent for transformation is better than mine! !
A terrifying thought popped up in McGonagall's mind.
You know, she is the most talented student in transformation since Dumbledore appointed her as a teacher.
She also thought that her talent for transformation was not much different from Dumbledore's.
But what Deveraux did in front of her.
He was completely far ahead of her in talent!
Before she could come to her senses.
Deveraux smiled and nodded.
Turned around.
"Professor, I think it would be better to let them all come alive and then send them to guard the outside of the castle?"
After listening to Deveraux's words.
McGonagall came to her senses and blinked.
Then shook her head and said.
"Many professors have proposed this idea before, but the activation transfiguration we use emphasizes changing only the structure, not the essence. Therefore, their activated state cannot be maintained for too long, and they need people to maintain it, which is too costly."
Deverot nodded with a smile.
"Professor, what you said makes a lot of sense, but you seem to have overlooked a method."
Said.
Deverot turned around.
Drawing out the wand from his waist and raising it above his head.
Waving it around his head violently.
Beginning to chant a spell.
Professor McGonagall's eyes narrowed.
Deverot is going to wake up all the stone pillars! ?
She doesn't even dare to do this!
McGonagall immediately held the wand in her hand.
Ready to catch Deverot who fainted due to exhaustion of magic power.
Deverot's eyes were closed and his brows were furrowed as if he was thinking about something.
"Stone pillars move!"
WithThe last spell was finished.
Deveraux waved his hand over his head again.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Ping! Ping! Ping!
This time it was not just the vibration caused by the shaking of the stones.
There were also constant sounds of metal colliding around!
Mag looked around nervously.
I saw those stone pillars that were originally silent.
Suddenly they trembled.
The cracks and mottled marks on their surfaces seemed to become blurred in an instant.
Then.
These stone pillars began to slowly change their shapes.
First the limbs gradually appeared.
Then the head and torso.
Until the end.
Each stone pillar turned into a living soldier and horse!
Their armor shone with the luster of metal.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!
As Deveraux recited the spell.
These soldiers marched in a uniform pace.
Walked out of the depression in the stone wall.
Standing in front of the two people in a very disciplined manner.
His eyes revealed determination and vigilance.
Like a well-trained army.
Waiting for orders.
Professor McGonagall couldn't hold the wand in her hand steadily at this time!
Really!
Devereux really!
Devereux really made all the stone pillars alive!
At this time, the first-year student standing in front of McGonagall turned his head and smiled.
He was pale at this time, without a trace of blood.
But he looked very excited.
"Professor, although the activation of transfiguration lacks continuity in maintaining the state of the caster, I added some microscopic transfiguration to it, which just made up for this part."
Devereux happily shared his ideas with Professor McGonagall.
And McGonagall could only stand there and listen.
That's right!
When he put his hands on the stone statue of the horse just now.
He entered the microscopic world.
Memorized the microscopic structure of this stone.
Very lucky!
Did not meet Tindalos this time.
Maybe he entered the microscopic world for too short a time.
Tindalos did not have time to find him.
Therefore.
He successfully completed what Professor McGonagall could not do, and even Dumbledore might have barely managed to activate the entire Hogwarts stone pier army!
"Haha, so Professor, we have an army now!"
Deveraux opened his arms.
Laughed and announced to Professor McGonagall.
Then...
Then Deveraux knew nothing.
His eyes went black.
He passed out.
