Chapter 283 283. A pleasant weekend
Early on Saturday morning, Scott and Helena came to the Room of Requirement, Helena's study.
Scott let Helena go to the room where the portrait of the Ravenclaw tutor was, and he stayed in the study to talk to the girl Helena in the portrait.
"You don't want to disturb Helena's private conversation with her mother?" The girl Helena smiled, "You are so considerate."
"It's just polite." Scott said modestly.
"Okay, polite."
The girl Helena lifted her skirt and sat on the grass in the landscape painting.
"How was your summer vacation, Scott!" She looked at Scott curiously, "Tell me quickly, what fun experiences did you have in the summer vacation?"
That's a bit much.
Scott thought.
Let a thief lose his life and assassinate three adult wizards. Does it count?
This thought was fleeting, and Scott and the girl Helena talked about some of their experiences in Spain during the summer vacation.
Scott thought it was a boring experience, but the girl in the painting listened with relish.
"That's great." She held her face and said, "Maybe I should have left more portraits in other places, so that I can travel through all my portraits!"
Scott showed a helpless expression.
He only knew Muggle oil painting and knew nothing about magic portraits.
To be precise, the magic portrait technique is now monopolized by pure-blood families, and Scott had no place to learn it in the past.
Now he can certainly learn this magic skill from the Ravenclaw tutor, but he still has a lot of other knowledge to learn. This unimportant but very complicated skill has been ranked very far behind him.
The portraits of Helena and the Ravenclaw tutor in the room did not chat for long. Scott quickly said goodbye to the girl Helena and started a new course.
Now Ravenclaw does not teach Scott directly, but adopts a question-and-answer teaching mode.
She will not interfere with Scott's own study plan, but is only responsible for giving some suggestions, answering his questions, and giving targeted teaching in areas he does not understand.
Scott is also very satisfied with this teaching mode.
Although his Transfiguration has not made any progress for a long time.
In his plan, the idea of his own Transfiguration is divided into four stages.
The first stage, basic transfiguration.
The main content of this stage is the content of the middle and lower grade courses at Hogwarts.
In Scott's conception, the most important feature of the first stage is that all transfiguration products require wizards to distract themselves to operate.
The second stage, advanced transfiguration.
The most important performance of the second stage of transfiguration is that the transfiguration products have a certain degree of autonomous action ability.
Just like the afternoon tea time Scott spent in the principal's office for the first time, Dumbledore made Scott's little puppet move autonomously, without any special control.
"Magic is the power of belief."
After Dumbledore's words, Scott soon achieved this level.
Although his first attempt was not successful, and even ended in a coma...
In the subsequent continuous use, Scott's transfiguration has undoubtedly reached this level, and even used it in duels.
The third stage, advanced transfiguration.
Scott believes that his current level of transfiguration is at this stage, but it has not been fully achieved.
The third stage he envisioned is to superimpose the second stage of transfiguration with the effects of spells and ancient magic runes.
At this stage, Scott's Transfiguration is not just Transfiguration, but has overlapped with Alchemy.
The listening bat is a superposition of Transfiguration and ancient magic runes, the giant oak guard is a superposition of Transfiguration and the expansion spell, and the tiny poison midge is a superposition of Transfiguration and the reduction spell.
Of course, these are just the superposition of Transfiguration and the simplest ancient magic runes or spells.
Scott's current level can only reach this level. He cannot superimpose more complex magic rune circuits on the basis of Transfiguration, nor can he superimpose more powerful spells.
Moreover, the third stage of advanced Transfiguration envisioned by Scott also includes familiarity with human body transformation and eventually mastering Animagus.
These are all the directions Scott is about to work hard for.
The fourth stage, the ultimate Transfiguration.
In Scott's vision, the main goal of this stage is the triple superposition of Transfiguration, Magic Rune Circuit, and Spell.
And Rimbaud, who was enlarged by Scott after the expansion spell, can barely be regarded as the product of his ultimate Transfiguration.
Rimbaud is a semi-finished product that Scott barely made by using a disposable Philosopher's Stone, and even used his own blood in the process of transformation.
Its normal state is just the superposition of Transfiguration and Magic Circuit, but because the Philosopher's Stone was used during the transformation, Scott has no problem casting the Expansion Spell on it now.
Yes, Rimbaud, who can be enlarged by Scott, is only a semi-finished product.
As for the real ultimate Transfiguration, it is to transform the Magic Circuit and the Blessing Spell at the same time during the transformation.
If you want to give an example, it should be that he casually waved his wand and turned a stone into a dragon that can change its size and breathe fire.
Scott explained his ideas about Transfiguration in detail to the Ravenclaw tutor a long time ago, and Ravenclaw expressed his appreciation.
Scott now also knows that the reason why his Transfiguration has not made any progress for a while is because his previous knowledge reserves have been exhausted.
Now that we know the crux of the problem, we need to start treating it accordingly.
And Scott is not a gifted person in learning spells and ancient runes, so he can only continue to work hard.
After Scott and his Ravenclaw tutor confirmed the next short-term study plan, Ravenclaw kindly let him leave first.
"This is the first weekend after the start of the new school year. Go and have a good rest and play, child." The Ravenclaw in the portrait smiled kindly, "It seems that you can only have this weekend."
"I know, tutor."
Since Helena chose to stay there, Scott obediently left the Room of Requirement alone.
As Ravenclaw said, he temporarily put aside his studies and spent a pleasant weekend.
Because Scott asked Eddie and the Weasley twins to set a threshold, there was not even a customer who asked for arithmetic divination to disturb him this weekend.
On Saturday afternoon, Scott participated in the duel club activity for the first time in a long time, and easily defeated several opponents in the activity.
On Sunday morning, he secretly activated the door key and went to the oak cabin, playing in the forest with Rimbaud for a few hours.
On Sunday afternoon, he even played a very amateur Quidditch game with a few friends.
In the evening, the Weasley twins and Eddie went to Hogsmeade village through the tunnel to buy butter beer and snacks.
They played happily until late at night, and even had a fierce chase battle with Mr. Filch and Peeves respectively.
Late at night, Scott fell asleep smiling in his bed.
