Chapter 381 No loss
The fact that Albert had prophetic powers was quickly forgotten by the students after it was proven to be a "rumor".
Yes, it’s interesting. Everyone’s memory is very short. They only have a few days, and they will be attracted to completely new topics very quickly.
As for their current new topic, it came from the fact that Albert submitted a paper on "Advanced Application of the Transformation Spell" at the Transfiguration Club meeting not long ago.
This paper was revised by Professor McGonagall and helped to submit it to Transfiguration Today, which caused a stir.
The general content of the paper is to use advanced transformation spells to build a "video and text" communication platform similar to a Muggle phone.
All right!
This thing is actually beyond the scope of students. Many wizards have not mastered the advanced use of magic spells, and there are even fewer wizards who can deeply explore the effects of spells.
The students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry were able to come up with such an architectural idea, which undoubtedly shocked a lot of people's jaws. In particular, the understanding and application of the transformation spell in the paper shows the author's understanding and knowledge of this field.
When "Today's Transfiguration Magazine" first came out, the paper immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially the students who knew that Albert was still a student. Every time they saw Albert, they would express their admiration and complicated expressions. eyes.
With that paper, Albert won this year's "Transfiguration Today" Most Promising Newcomer Award, which is undoubtedly a very high honor.
Many students believe that Albert has exceeded the level of N.E.W.Ts examination in the field of transfiguration.
However, what everyone didn’t know was that the paper was just a magical communication blueprint that Albert came up with when he was studying the double-sided mirror.
The simplest way is actually to build a communication book. When you need to use it, open the book, find the target page according to the directory, and then contact the other party through something like a double-sided mirror, whether using text or video. Contact, the disadvantage is that it is not very convenient to carry.
Albert plans to put it into action in the near future. Even if most wizards in the wizarding world don't buy it, he believes that men and women in love will need double-sided mirrors to talk on the phone.
This is more practical than writing a letter.
Before that, Albert needs to master the advanced transformation spell. The advanced use of the spell is really not easy to master, and he still needs to continue to practice.
Of course, advanced transformation spells are easier to master than advanced patron saint spells. Although they will not appear on the skill panel, Albert has indeed mastered a small number of advanced application skills of transformation spells.
If he is willing to invest enough experience or skill points in the Transformation Spell, he should be able to quickly master the advanced use of the Transformation Spell, but Albert also needs to consider the distribution of experience.
Although there is indeed a lot of experience accumulated in the experience pool, experience is usually not enough. He usually only selectively upgrades the more important skills to the first and second levels.
Most of the time, Albert would still practice the spells taught in textbooks by himself, and his wizard blood gave him a great advantage.
In the busy campus life, time begins to slowly advance towards the end of September, and the rainy season in Scotland has officially begun.
It rains frequently, which is really annoying, especially when taking herbal medicine classes outdoors. I always get myself covered in mud, cold, wet, and exhausted.
The Care of Magical Creatures class is also held outdoors, which is also very troublesome on rainy days.
However, in the depressingly humid rainy season, you can always find a few things to be happy about.
What makes Albert most happy is that he has obtained a new task from Mr. Adolphe Fournier.
The name of the task is "Equivalent Exchange."
The content is very simple, which is to carry out an equivalent exchange with what both parties need.
Adolphe Fournier needed a method for making a double mirror, while Albert needed Adolphe Fournier's knowledge of alchemy.
The task requires both parties to maintain relatively equal and voluntary transactions during this process.
can be interpreted as not to suffer.
Just a few days ago, Mr. Adolphe Fournier got his wish and got some of the remaining information about the double-sided mirror. Of course, part of the information Albert gave to the other party came from the records and descriptions in the Golden Book.
In exchange for knowledge, Albert also received a lot of useful alchemical knowledge from Mr. Adolphe Fournier, one of which was the method of making a looking glass.
The looking glass was not invented by Mr. Adolphe Fournier.
There is almost no awareness of protecting intellectual property rights in the magic world. As long as you can learn it, basically anyone can use it. Therefore, formulas like floo powder will be firmly grasped by Wild Smith, who is interested in knowledge. To ensure that the manufacturing method of Floo powder will not be leaked out, in order to protect one's own interests from infringement.
This kind of thing naturally has its disadvantages. Some of the methods for making magic spells and magic items may be lost due to the death of the inventor and maker.
It is worth mentioning that, at Albert's request, Adolphe Fournier's research theory on the magic lamp has been completed. It is similar to the thinking mode of the memory ball, creating a container and using the wizard's wand as an igniter. When the wizard uses Lumos on the container, the magic lamp is lit by the wand.
Well, it’s actually a magic version of an oil lamp.
The disadvantage is that it is not durable and not as practical as imagined.
Albert made himself a magic lamp that only lit up for ten seconds, following the method he had learned from Adolphe Fournier.
Fortunately, the alchemy skill of "Magic Lamp" does appear on the panel skill.
At that time, Tom, who witnessed this process, was startled and slapped the magic lamp to the ground.
The first magic lamp experiment was swept into the garbage by a cat on the spot.
In fact, Albert wanted Dumbledore's technology more, but unfortunately Adolphe Fournier was unable to provide him with technical and intellectual support, which was beyond his understanding.
I can only say that alchemy is sometimes very knowledge-intensive.
Shortly after Adolphe Fournier obtained the remaining information, he sent Albert a pair of double-sided mirrors as a gift.
Of course, there was a bit of showing off in this gift, but Albert didn’t care and was thinking about whether to send a two-way mirror home.
As for this transaction, Albert was not at a loss at all. He gained several more alchemy skills in his panel skills. He also completed the task of "Equal Transaction" and gained thousands of experience points. He also gained a double-sided mirror and a magic lamp task. Once you know where it is, it's a real profit.
