Chapter 251 Guardian God
“Have you been able to summon the physical guardian spirit?”
Seeing Albert's reaction, Fred asked almost instinctively: "I remember that you have been practicing the Patronus Charm recently. It shouldn't take long to summon the physical Patronus."
"This..." Albert noticed that Fred and the three of them were looking at him searchingly, and he suddenly didn't know what to say.
“Try it, I think it should be an eagle.” George put his face closer and suggested with a smile: “I think your physical guardian angel should be an eagle.”
"Ahem, I haven't been able to successfully summon the physical patron saint." Albert said slightly embarrassed, "It's just a cloud of smoke at the moment."
"I don't believe it. You are Albert, a real Gryffindor student. Of course the patron saint will be a lion. How could it be an eagle?" Lee Jordan also put his face close to him, as if you must be there. The expressions that lie to us.
"I say, you guys are enough." Albert stretched out his hand to push the three people who leaned over, and said rather speechlessly, "Can't the patron saint be other creatures? It has to be a lion or an eagle or something."
“Just give it a try, even if it’s a fog, you might be able to see some prototypes.” Fred reminded, the three of them were really curious about what the answer would be.
Although the Patronus Charm is a very complex and ancient spell, the other party is Albert. Who knows if he has secretly mastered this spell.
"Okay, summon the guardian angel!" Albert took a deep breath and began to search for happy memories in his brain. He pulled out the wand and drew a circle in reverse, reciting the patronus spell. A stream of silver gas was emitted from the top of the wand. However, the smoke did not form a physical patronus.
“Look, the shape of the smoke doesn’t look like an eagle at all. It seems a bit big, more like a Gryffindor lion.” Lee Jordan happily announced his victory.
"No, that's just your guess. You have to wait until you summon the physical Patron Saint!" Fred and George immediately retorted. However, Albert had already frowned slightly. The Patron Saint's skill had been upgraded to level 2, but It was obviously a bit weird to fail to summon the physical guardian spirit.
According to records, the caster of the Patronus Charm must focus on recalling the happiest memory they can think of. The stronger the pleasure the memory brings, the more powerful the spell will be.
Perhaps, you should try again with a happier memory. After all, the strength of the patron saint is related to whether your memories are happy or not.
Albert closed his eyes and recalled his mood when he discovered that he had the panel. That was probably the happiest time for him.
That day, Albert discovered that he was no longer ordinary!
"What's wrong?" George noticed something strange about Albert and asked slightly worriedly, only to find that Albert raised his wand again, drew a circle in reverse and whispered softly: "Guardian!"
This time, a silver gryphon spurted out from the tip of Albert's wand.
The three of them were all stunned, staring stupidly at the silver gryphon passing over their heads, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!"
“Haha!” Fred suddenly laughed and said to Lee Jordan: “We won, we won.”
“Assholes, you obviously lost!” Lee Jordan raised his finger and pointed at the griffon above him, and angrily shouted at Fred, “You are talking about an eagle, look at how this thing is an eagle.”
"Eagle head, you just saw it, eagle head, is there an eagle head?" Fred and George looked at each other and said in unison: "Recite it with me, eagle head, is related to the eagle, so, We won."
"Don't argue, the griffin is not an eagle. Just admit that you lost and swallow these multi-flavored beans." Li Qiaodan's face flushed angrily. He realized that he couldn't defeat Fred and George, so he He jumped up from his seat and rushed towards Fred next to him, intending to persuade him. The carriage immediately became a mess.
After seeing that his patron saint was a griffin, Albert's face suddenly darkened.
"Of course there is a problem, the griffon is a magical creature!" When Albert just started speaking, Fred and Lee Jordan stopped playing and listened quietly as he continued: "It is said that the guardian of the wizard God is the same as the Animagus, which means my Animagus will probably take the form of a griffin.”
“What is an Animagus?” Fred asked doubtfully.
“Silly, animal transformation!” George reminded: “Remember Professor McGonagall turned into a cat on the first day.”
“You actually remember!” Lee Jordan looked like he had seen a ghost.
“Animagus refers to a wizard who can transform into some kind of animal while retaining his own magical power.” Albert gave the three people popular science.
"Oh, what's the problem?" Fred asked, "What's that Animagus?"
“Animagus transformation is usually limited to non-magical creatures.” Albert explained helplessly: “The transformation of magical creatures such as phoenixes and fire dragons will bring unpredictable consequences.”
"It is said that there are fundamental differences in the operation of wizard magic and magical creature magic." Albert thought for a while and then explained: "You know about goblins and house elves. Goblins have their own goblin magic, and house elves also have their own. The house elves' own magic is not part of our wizard's magic system, although they can all use wands."
The three of them exchanged glances with each other, obviously not understanding what Albert said.
"Take house elves as an example. Hogwarts Academy prohibits apparation, but house elves can apparate at any time." Albert casually gave an example, "Hogwarts prohibits apparation only for wizards. Magic, but it cannot target the magic of house elves, this is the difference in the magic system."
“Wow, you actually know these things.” The three of them looked at Albert in surprise.
“Remember to keep this matter confidential.” Albert reminded.
The three of them nodded in unison.
“But does this have anything to do with that Arnie or something?” Fred scratched his head and asked in confusion.
"President Dumbledore was also a professor of transfiguration." Albert knew they didn't understand, so he continued: "I checked the records of Animagus in Britain in this century, and there were only seven, and there were nine in the last century. , none of them have Dumbledore’s name. Of course, illegal Animagus is not excluded, but I once asked Professor McGonagall what the Headmaster’s Animagus was. At that time, Professor McGonagall told me that the Headmaster’s Animagus was The patron saint is the phoenix.”
“Phoenixes are magical creatures, so you mean Principal Dumbledore is not an Animagus?” Lee Jordan asked uncertainly.
"That's right. Magical creatures are not within the scope of Animagus' transformation. Principal Dumbledore should also know this very well, so after discovering that the patron saint is a phoenix, he may simply give up on Animagus. Transformation, otherwise do you think that with Principal Dumbledore’s talent and ability, it is impossible to learn the transformation of Animagus?” Albert’s face was not very good, because there was an Animagus in his task list. Si's mission, which means that this mission may be a trap.
The three of them can understand now. Albert's patron saint is the griffin, and the griffin is a magical creature. So this means that Albert may have to give up becoming a doctor like Principal Dumbledore. Animagus.
Because once the transformation fails, you may suffer unpredictable consequences. No one knows that they will die, but they try their best to do it. Isn't that asking for death?
"Even if you can't become an Animagus, it still won't prevent you from becoming a great wizard like Dumbledore. Didn't the principal also give up?" Fred comforted.
"No, I still have a chance. It is said that the Patron Saint will change, as long as he experiences some degree of mental shock or emotional upheaval," Albert recalled the information related to the Patron Saint Curse. As far as he knew, Ha There seems to be a similar case in Lippert's novel.
“Hey, you’re being too cruel to yourself!” The three of them were stunned when they heard this, “Is it really necessary to do this?”
"I just don't want to give up the possibility of becoming an Animagus." Albert thought for a while and said, "I need to write a letter to Professor McGonagall to seek her advice."
"I thought you might need an owl," Fred reminded.
“Open the window, Shera will appear, and she will always come back to me when I need her.” Albert took out the parchment from the suitcase and began to write a letter to Professor McGonagall.
