Chapter 231: New Possibilities of Transfiguration
Chapter 231: New Possibilities of Transfiguration
By consuming a Dementor, Sainz came to two very important conclusions.
First, Dementors can be killed by the Killing Curse, which was not unexpected to him and he had guessed it long ago.
The key point is the second point: the Dementors' bodies are most likely composed of pure soul and magic!
This is very important, and it has led to significant adjustments to some of Sai's experimental hypotheses and designs.
He was never sure whether Dementors had real bodies until he saw them turn into ashes with his own eyes.
In fact, when they could be compressed into balls by the guardian angel, Sainz had a certain understanding. At that time, he guessed that they might not have physical bodies.
There was no doubt that Dementors had a different kind of entity. He had never doubted this. The evidence was that Dementors could not pass through walls like ghosts. They would be blocked by solid matter.
But Sainz always had doubts about whether they had flesh bodies similar to humans or animals. Even when he saw them compressed into balls on the train, he was still not sure.
After all, no one can predict what happens in the wizarding world.
Being able to be big or small doesn’t mean anything.
Birds and snakes can be big or small, but they are still living animals!
But now it is certain that although Dementors look like swollen corpses, they do not actually have real flesh.
Judging from various manifestations, they are more like some kind of elemental life.
Analogous to the magical creatures in other worlds, they may be more similar to life forms such as fire element and water element.
When the souls that restrained the magic power in their bodies were killed, the magic power lost its restraint, so the bodies dissipated in the air.
This characteristic gave Sai endless associations.
The importance of the Spirit Monster to Sainz suddenly increased to a higher level.
If the soul-sucking ability of the Dementors is fully understood, not only can a powerful means of attack be mastered, but it can also provide defense for the soul.
At the same time, if we study the Dementors, a life form with soul-binding magic, thoroughly, can we provide a way of "transformation" and transform the body into elements? If so, there will be a lot of new ideas that can be put into practice!
Knowledge is interconnected. Sometimes, things that seem incredible are simply because we don’t understand their underlying logic.
For example, some music masters, after mastering one musical instrument, can apply what they have learned to other musical instruments and even become proficient in all other musical instruments.
Sainz still remembers the first time he rode the Hogwarts Express, when he was unpacking the chocolate frog picture, he found an ancient wizard named Cliona.
Any wizard who can be recorded on the Chocolate Frog picture has made great achievements. You should know that in modern times, only Dumbledore can be on the Chocolate Frog picture, not even Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick and others.
Cliona left a deep impression on Sainz.
She was a very famous Druid witch in the Middle Ages.
She can be recorded as a great wizard on the Chocolate Frog card because of her contribution to magic. She discovered a new potion ingredient and she is also proficient in Transfiguration and can turn herself into a seabird or a wave.
What Sainz cares about most is that she can turn into a wave!
Become a wave!
Isn’t this an elemental body?
Druids!
This sect has disappeared in today's society. It may still exist in some remote areas, but it is no longer the protagonist of the story in the wider magical world.
Cleona can transform into a seabird, which may also be a spell similar to Animagus.
The reason why Animagus has become a widely spread and advanced technology in Transfiguration today is simply because it is circulated in Hogwarts and will be taught to students who come to Hogwarts.
That doesn't mean that similar spells don't exist elsewhere in the wizarding world.
Hogwarts does not represent the wizarding world, nor does it even represent the wizarding world of Great Britain!
There is a consensus in the current wizarding world: Animagus cannot transform into a magical creature!
The fact that the current magic world has this consensus does not mean that the magic world also had this consensus in the past!
Just because Animagus cannot transform into a magical creature doesn’t mean that all Transfiguration techniques cannot transform into magical creatures!
For example, werewolves. Sainz had previously speculated that they might have originally come about as a result of failed attempts to transform into magical creatures.
If this is true, it cannot be said that they are complete failures. At least werewolves are indeed magical creatures!
Although it has no brains, it is indeed a magical creature compared to ordinary wild wolves!
Although this magic is not as magical as that displayed by other magical creatures, its magic resistance and magic contagiousness are undoubtedly very magical.
Let’s talk about the druid witch mentioned above. She can have two types of transformations at the same time, seabird and wave!
As for seabirds, it is not known how many forms they have, whether they are completely transformed or just have a change in size.
The complete transformation that Sainz believes in is something like the Animagus, where one is completely transformed into an animal from the inside out;
If only the body shape changes, it means just adjusting the body shape to become an animal, and the flesh, blood, genes, soul, etc. do not change.
This incomplete transformation, which only changes the shape, can be done by Sainz now. He can now turn himself into a giant eagle. Although this giant eagle is still a human being in the eyes of the Dementors, because the characteristics of the soul have not changed, if some blood is drawn for testing, it is still human blood.
If there is still room for discussion regarding seabirds, then the waves have truly been completely deformed. After all, they are no longer living creatures in the conventional sense!
Of course, there is also a small possibility that the wizard did not actually turn into a wave but was just using a sleight of hand. This probability does exist, but it is very small.
After all, not all other wizards are fools who allow her to deceive them.
Her deeds were recorded, but her knowledge was not passed down at all!
Sainz searched the library for a long time, but found nothing.
He had to admit that Hogwarts did have a remarkable heritage, but it did not contain all the knowledge.
Even so, Sai still loves this place greedily.
If there wasn't such an open place in the magic world, he would never have had the opportunity to master such inhuman power.
Now Sainz is no longer concerned about how strong he is, he is now confident enough to face anyone!
The reason why he is so quiet now is simply because of his steady character, fear of trouble, and his own morals that restrain himself.
He is no longer so eager to pursue powerful magic. He still wants to master magic like the Fierce Fire Curse, but he will no longer worry about not mastering this spell.
He had the confidence that even if he had not collected any method to destroy the Horcruxes, he would not be as anxious as he was in the second grade. He was confident that he could research a way to deal with the Horcruxes on his own.
Even if he really couldn't destroy the Horcrux, he was now confident that he could kill Voldemort so badly that he wouldn't dare show his head.
He was so killed that he retreated three steps!
He was beaten so hard that he dared not come out to attack anyone when he heard that Sai was there!
No matter how evil and scary he is portrayed to be, the fact remains that people are afraid of Old Deng!
When Old Deng is around, aren't they afraid to show up?
We have to wait until old Deng dies before we dare to come out in public!
