Chapter 4118 4120 [Waiting for the Storm]

Fenrir, who transformed into a werewolf, was extremely strong and ferocious, and he pulled the shackles and handcuffs so hard that they rattled.

Even though its hands and feet were covered with bloody marks, it still refused to be obedient. Instead, it became even more crazy under the stimulation of blood and pain.

Finally, its hands and feet broke free from the shackles and handcuffs. Even if it lost a layer of skin and made it bleed, it didn't care and continued to attack Xiang Nan.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan put a collar around its neck just in case. It would be impossible for it to break free unless it broke its own neck. And if it broke its neck, even with the werewolf's terrifying recovery ability, it would be dead for sure.

But after transforming into a werewolf, although he almost lost all his sanity, he still had the basic instinct to preserve his life.

Even when Lupin transformed into a werewolf on a full moon night, he could still hang out in Hogwarts with James Potter, Sirius Black and Peter Perrude.

Therefore, after Fenrir transformed into a werewolf, despite its ferocity, it only managed to break free from its handcuffs and leg irons. After trying several times and realizing that it could not break free from the collar, it had no choice but to give up.

But he continued to roar at Xiang Nan, emitting a foul-smelling breath that made people want to vomit.

"To be honest, you really should brush your teeth." Xiang Nan pouted, then took out his wand and continued to cast spells on it.

As a dark magic creature, werewolves generally have high magic resistance. Many spells that would kill or cripple a human being, but werewolves are fine, such as the Stunning Spell, Confusion Spell, Cutting Spell, Shattering Spell, Petrification Spell, etc.

Xiang Nan just used it to gain experience.

……

In the early hours of the morning, Fenrir transformed once again, returning to his human form.

Xiang Nan watched with his own eyes as it shed its fur, its facial features returned to human form, and its hands and soles also recovered. He couldn't help but feel very amazed.

Although it had struggled to break free from its handcuffs and shackles last night, leaving itself covered in wounds, those wounds were now gone, which showed the werewolf's amazing ability to recover.

After it recovered, Xiang Nan waved his wand, and put on the shackles and handcuffs again, locking Fenrir tightly.

"Let me go, let me go if you dare." Fenrir shouted, knowing that Xiang Nan was here.

"Shut up." Xiang Nan waved his magic wand, "Lock your tongue and throat~"

Fenrir's tongue suddenly stuck to the roof of his mouth and he couldn't utter a word.

Xiang Nan immediately left the House of Requests. At this time, the sun was about to rise.

Xiang Nan faced the rising sun, pointed the tip of his wand at his heart, and then chanted the spell, "Amado, Animado, Animagus."

This was a must for practicing the Druid's art of transfiguration, and he would repeat it again at dusk when the sun was about to set.

As long as he persevered, he would gradually feel the existence of a second heart in his body. When the thunder and lightning struck and the rain poured down, he could take the potion and transform for the first time.

Generally speaking, when an Animagus transforms, he cannot choose the animal he wants to turn into. Instead, he will randomly turn into an animal based on the talent of the caster.

However, Xiang Nan referred to the steps recorded in "The Natural Way of Druids". Compared with modern Animagus transformation, the ancient Druid Transfiguration is much richer and more dangerous. Ancient Druids have many forms of transformation, and can even transform into any natural animal. For example, the legendary wizard Merlin can transform into any animal at will.

For example, black bears, gray wolves, cheetahs, hedgehogs, mice, falcons, crows, butterflies, bees, poisonous snakes, black fish, dolphins, lizards, spiders, etc.

However, with the evolution of history, the ancient druidic ways were gradually lost, so to be able to cultivate an Animagus was already a genius among geniuses.

Xiang Nan is currently learning the ancient Druid Transfiguration Technique, which allows the caster to choose the animal he wants to transform into. However, the prerequisite is that the animal must be a natural animal, not a magical animal.

Because magical animals contain powerful magic, if the transformation fails, it is likely to cause extremely serious consequences.

Legend has it that griffins, werewolves, Medusa, minotaurs, harpies, sphinxes, etc., were transformed into monsters because they practiced the art of transfiguration improperly.

If the caster wants to successfully transform into the animal he wants to be, he must be familiar with this animal and have done quite detailed research on it.

When transforming, try to imagine its appearance in your mind, the more detailed and realistic the better. Otherwise, if you have selfish thoughts, the transformation will fail.

At the very least, they could turn into a horrible, disgusting monster, or at worst, they could even die. For a wizard, it was hard to say which fate was worse.

That is why the Druid Transfiguration was so dangerous, and as time went by, it was gradually phased out by the wizarding world, replaced by the easier and more convenient Animagus Transfiguration.

……

Xiang Nan then caught a swift and observed and studied it carefully, trying to understand its feathers, muscles, bones, internal organs, habits...

Because he had X-ray vision, he didn't have to dissect the bird to understand it clearly.

He chose the swift because, firstly, it has a fast flying speed. It can fly 170 kilometers per hour, making it one of the fastest flying birds; secondly, it is inconspicuous and is the most common and common bird.

Xiang Nan learned the druid transformation technique in order to hide more easily, so he transformed himself into a common bird to make it easier to avoid being tracked down.

Birds of prey such as peregrine falcons, hunting falcons, golden eagles, and gyrfals do fly faster. For example, a peregrine falcon can reach a speed of 390 kilometers per hour when sprinting. However, this bird of prey is too eye-catching to be noticed.

So after comprehensive consideration, the only bird that flies fast and is not eye-catching is the common swift. This is also the first change form he decided on.

In addition to observing the swifts, Xiang Nan never forgets to cast a spell on himself every sunrise and sunset.

Because if you fail once, all the previous efforts will be wasted, so you can't slack off at all. This is why practicing Druid Transfiguration is so difficult.

On the third day, Xiang Nan felt as if there was an extra heart in his body, beating loudly. It was relatively weak in the first few days, but as time went by, the heartbeat became clearer and more intense.

Xiang Nan knew that he was only one step away from success. He only needed to wait until the day of thunder and lightning and heavy rain, and then he could take the potion and complete his first Animagus transformation.

However, it is almost November now, and the weather is getting colder. It would be difficult to wait for a storm, but waiting for a snowstorm is probably the best option.

Xiang Nan himself did not hold out hope and was ready to wait until May or June of next year. During this period, he still needed to chant the spell to his heart every sunrise and sunset, without missing a single day or even a single time.

This is one of the reasons why Druid Transfiguration is difficult to practice, because it is too trivial, too demanding, and too troublesome.
