Chapter 10 Hogwarts First Contact
Studying in Hogwarts Castle, the first difficulty you need to face is that most of the things in the castle are alive.For example, it can move escalators, steps, armor, oil paintings on the walls, and doors that need to be opened or disguised by special means.
Yes, when the descriptions in the novels and the pictures in the movies actually appeared in front of Ryan, he felt extremely excited when he saw them for the first time.
But when the excitement wears off, the difficulties posed by the ever-moving furnishings of the castle really come into play.The complicated indoor structure caused Ryan to spend a lot of time searching for the destination.It has to be said that the pace of life in Hogwarts is relatively slow, which is probably related to these messy facilities.
The most unlucky thing was that on Tuesday afternoon, on the way to the classroom, he even met Peeves, which made him and a few classmates almost be late for the first class of Dean Professor McGonagall.
When they ran into the Transfiguration class panting, they found that it was not time for class, but some students had already sat down in the classroom and were busy with their own affairs.
This classroom is not much different from ordinary middle school classrooms, except that there is a cat squatting on the desk.
Hermione, who came in with Ryan, was obviously a cat lover. She tried to scratch the chin of the cat on the desk, but unfortunately the cat deftly avoided it. Ryan looked at Hermione dumbfounded. After he entered the classroom Focusing on finding a seat, he didn't expect Hermione, who was very stable in his impression, to have such a childish side.
Ryan pulled back Hermione, who was still wanting to pet the cat, and saluted the cat.Hermione looked at Ryan questioningly, and after returning to her seat, Hermione asked Ryan across the aisle, "Why did you salute that cat?"
It seems that Hermione is indeed not a slow person. "The cat above was transformed by Professor McGonagall. She is one of only seven registered Animagus in this century. Look at the side of the cat's eyes." Is the texture of the glasses exactly the same as Professor McGonagall's glasses?" Ryan said softly
Hermione looked up at the cat, and suddenly her face turned red.She buried her face in her arms and said in a very soft voice, "You know why you didn't tell me about this earlier?"
Ryan didn't know how to answer, he thought to himself: A cat standing on the podium is not a normal thing in itself, how could I have guessed that you would touch it directly, this is completely different from the Hermione I know Same, has the mature and stable Hermione been swapped?
A few minutes later, when it was time for class, the classroom door was flung open again, and Harry and Ron rushed in.
"Great, Professor McGonagall hasn't arrived yet." Ron said happily to Harry.
After the voice fell, the cat on the podium jumped down and turned into a human form at the same time.
"Professor McGonagall!" Ron suddenly turned pale.
"I think I should turn you into alarm clocks so that you won't be late." McGonagall said a little angrily.
"We're just lost, Professor."
"That is to turn you into a map. Don't be late next time. Go back to your seats."
The two ran to their seats in desperation and sat down.
"Ryan Liang, you are the first freshman who can recognize me this year. It seems that you have excellent observation skills, and you have carefully previewed before class, so I will give you ten points from Gryffindor." Professor McGonagall looked at it. Step up to Ryan, then step up to the podium.
"Transfiguration is the most complicated and dangerous spell you have in your Hogwarts class," she said. "Anyone who tries to misbehave in my class, I ask him out and never let him in again. I But I warned you."
She then turned her lectern into a pig and back again.The students were all fascinated and wanted to start learning right away, but they soon realized that it would take a long time to turn furniture into animals.After they had jotted down a mountain of intricate notes, she gave them each a match and began to make them try to become a needle.
Sure enough, as Ryan thought, magic can't be cast just by chanting a spell and waving a wand. This is a very rigorous knowledge, which contains many profound theories.It seems that to learn magic well, simple training is not enough, one must also learn to understand the principles.
Transfiguration is a subject that is both easy and difficult to say.For example, a first-year student can turn a match into a needle.But if a master is allowed to do such a thing, then this needle can be made of various materials and styles, and this deformation effect can last for hundreds of years.
In addition to the difference in magic power, such a gap is the understanding of the magic itself and the grasp of various material properties.Especially the latter point, this requires a lot of time and energy to accumulate, and it is not opportunistic.
Ryan took some time to combine the pre-class preview with the knowledge copied from the notes in this class, and after understanding the principle, he started to practice.Transforming theory into practice was not as simple as imagined. He didn't turn matches into needles until the end of get out of class, but it was still 3 minutes slower than Hermione, and the needles he transformed had no pinholes.
Ryan thought he was embarrassing.But after looking around, I found that other people's progress was slower, and some people even had no change in the match in front of them.
When class was over, Professor McGonagall nodded to Ryan.After all, for beginners, being able to change items is already a good performance. Of course, the situation of the real student Hermione is an exception.
In addition to Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class, Ryan also gained a lot in several other classes, whether it was Charms or Herbal Medicine.
In the Charms class, Professor Flitwick was a little wizard, and when he said Harry Potter's name, he fell down from the pile of books excitedly, which made people feel a bit exaggerated.However, he has a deep knowledge of spells and is very willing to answer students' questions. After asking many times, Ryan feels that his level of spells has improved rapidly. .
But in the herbal medicine class, Ryan felt that he was handy in handling those plants, and even got bonus points from Professor Sprout. This is probably a special bonus of the Chinese bloodline in farming.
Astronomy and History of Magic, however, are less interesting.The astronomy in the first grade is purely some observation records, and some simple astrological cycle calculations, which is very boring.
History of Magic is taught by a ghost, Professor Binns.During class, Professor Binns talked incessantly in a monotonous voice, while students scribbled notes.From what the professor told, Ryan can get a lot of knowledge outside of history books, and even many major historical events that Professor Binns has personally experienced.However, the professor's tedious and non-stop lecture method made people feel drowsy.So after each class, he had to borrow the notes of Hermione, the only student in class who was not asleep.
