Chapter 361 Nymphadora Tonks's Appointment
On the other hand, the benefits that Yang Tian had promised to the four deans before must naturally be fulfilled one by one during this period of time.
The first is the field of magic and transfiguration. Since it is a joint research, the progress in this area is not bad. Ever since he obtained a pure-blooded cat-kinson cub from a transfiguration expert, by extracting obvious elemental energy, Yang Tian realized the differences in the texture of the cat-kinson and its extended skills.
The most unexpected discovery among them is the extended skills.
Because no matter the magic structure or the effect of casting, this extension skill is surprisingly similar to the cutting spell. Although there are still some subtle differences between the two, these differences have become the focus of research for magic experts.
The experts' guesses are almost unanimous. In ancient times, wizards found the method of using the Cutting Spell through magical animals similar to cats and mice in nature. After a long period of continuous survival of the fittest, the Cutting Spell was finally formed. If this process can be restored, wouldn't it be the key node connecting ancient spells and modern spells as Professor Flitwick said before? Such a discovery undoubtedly excited many experts.
Another major event regarding Transfiguration also took shape soon. Nymphadora Tonks, who was already an apprentice Auror, finally met Yang Tian at Hogwarts. Perhaps due to her busy work or some other reason, Ms. Tonks was not enthusiastic about meeting this young wizard who had become famous. However, under the strong request of Professor McGonagall, she had no choice but to agree.
The meeting took place in Professor McGonagall's office, and the attitudes of both parties were initially quite unfriendly.
"Hey, you must be the teacher's favorite disciple, I really don't understand why you must see me. Metamorphmagus is a magical blood instinct, not a tool to attract attention. Although I don't have such a deep obsession with blood, I still want to say that making a fuss about such things is not a good quality." Tonks went all out from the start, which made Yang Tian understand why she was not friendly to him.
"So, senior sister, you have read that paper?" Yang Tian was not angry about this. Instead, he smiled and chatted casually.
"Of course I did. Someone claimed that he could use his own Transfiguration to realize my innate ability, so of course I had to pay attention to it." Tonks said proudly. At this moment, she was completely different from the carefree and straightforward character in the original book: "But what was the result? After my colleague tried it with great joy, he was surprised to find that all he could do was simply change the shape of his nose. It's too fake, isn't it?"
"Senior, do you think there is a possibility that..." Yang Tian began to change his appearance while speaking: "Is your colleague not skilled enough?" Before he finished speaking, he had completely transformed into the image of senior Tonks.
“Stop it…” After seeing the change in Yang Tian, Tonks, who was originally prepared to confront him, suddenly changed her tone: “How is this possible? Are you kidding me?” She just stared blankly at the other self in front of her.
Tonks, who was transformed by Yang Tian, suddenly made a face and said teasingly, "How do you feel, Senior? Is this level of disguise qualified to discuss some relevant issues with you?"
After swallowing, Tonks said angrily, "Come to think of it, they don't look very similar. The face is stiff, and the similarity is 95%, just barely acceptable, hum!" After that, she looked at the other person with a guilty conscience. But Yang Tian could clearly feel that Tonks was much more real at this moment.
"Well then, can you please show me a performance that's not so forced, Senior Tonks?" Yang Tian said with a nonchalant smile.
"No problem, I'll show you the gap between us." Tonks couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.
The next moment, Yang Tian started to look inside, and the changes in Tonks' body were already visible.
Unexpectedly, yet within reason, the starting point of everything was actually from the blood. It was a strange energy that surged out of the blood without any warning, passing through the five internal organs, bones, muscles, and skin. It was an all-round change from the inside out. In an instant, the exact same Yang Tian appeared in front of the original body, even the movements, voice, breath, and even the tiny pores were exactly the same...
It was at this time that Yang Tiancai finally understood the gap between his current Metamorphmagus prototype and the real Metamorphmagus. His prototype was still too superficial, it was just the individual adjustments of various parts of the body, and even if it was done in detail, there would still be errors when it was put together.
In contrast, Tonks's Metamorphmagus is more profound, and is a magic closer to Boggart's Transfiguration. The two seem to be of the same origin, or can be said to be the same source and continuation.
Of course, Boggart's Transfiguration is more primitive and closer to the essence, which is a transformation close to the essence of the elements; while Tonks's Metamorphmagus should be more suitable for humans. Perhaps there is an insurmountable barrier between humans and all things, or it is a degeneration of ancient bloodline. Yang Tian does not know for the time being...
Tonks obviously didn't know about Yang Tian's miraculous inner vision ability. At this moment, she looked at this junior with a joking expression: "How is it? Little guy, how long do you think it will take for you to reach my level?"
Yang Tian seemed calm at this moment. After thinking carefully for a while, he answered solemnly: "If nothing unexpected happens, I think I should be able to study this problem thoroughly within a year."
Tonks was stunned at first, then she told her own experience with relief: "To be honest, when I first read the academic paper carefully, I thought it was a joke, and even thought you were a liar. After all, the content of the paper is very different from the actual situation in my body. In addition, the results of my colleagues' attempts were very unsatisfactory, which further proved my guess. However, the results of your personal demonstration today made me shine. I have to say that your performance is very outstanding."
"But I still feel like I'm crazy. Just because of your statement just now, I actually began to believe that you really have the possibility of success." Tonks laughed loudly, "Okay, little guy, let's make a deal. If you can really fulfill your promise within one year, I will come to apologize to you in person."
After a pause, she smiled again and said, "Besides, I really look forward to coming to apologize to you one day."
