20. Discussing Impossible Magic

Time passed quickly, and Professor McGonagall waved his wand when he saw that all the students had finished reading the paper.

The wand made a crackling sound, attracting everyone's attention.

"I see that all the students have read the paper."

Professor McGonagall lowered his right hand holding his wand.

"Now we start a free discussion, and everyone can talk about some of their views on the content of this paper."

"It's a fantastic idea, Professor."

Angelina spoke first, looking at her notebook as she spoke.

Scott saw that the page of her notebook was already full of scrambled words.

"It's a bold idea, and it's very interesting." Angelina said here, shaking her head again, "but I have to say, Mr. Weasley's idea may be too wild."

She drew a few circles in the notebook with the quill in her hand.

"Although I only verified it theoretically, I don't seem to see the possibility of this idea being realized."

After Professor McGonagall listened to her speech, she just nodded without commenting.

"What about the others, do you think differently from Miss Johnson?"

"I want to give my opinion, Professor."

Scott looked over and saw that it was Percy Weasley standing up.

"Please, Mr. Weasley." Professor McGonagall gestured.

"I'm not saying this because Bill is my brother, but I don't think the ideas laid out in this paper are entirely impossible."

Percy cites several points of evidence given in the paper.

"The mysterious Egyptian magic world hides a lot of ancient magic knowledge that we are unfamiliar with. I think that although the conjecture in the paper cannot be verified with the magic knowledge we have learned so far, it is very likely that the Egyptians realized it in ancient times."

Watching Percy's performance, Scott was surprised again.

He could see that Percy adored his eldest brother too.Consider Percy's character, and Bill Weasley is amazing.

"Ah."

Professor McGonagall nodded again, motioning Percy to sit down.

"Where are the others?" She looked at the other students in the classroom.

Then, the other members of the Transfiguration Club also stood up and expressed their opinions.

It's just that most of the students' statements are similar to Angelina's.

They think that the conjecture in the paper is really interesting and can give them some inspiration, but they think that this conjecture can only stay in the conjecture stage in the end.

Even a few students who disagreed, only echoed Percy's words.They believe that this supposed magic might indeed have existed in ancient times, but they also believe that it is impossible to reproduce in modern times when ancient magic has lost much of its heritage.

"I think the conjecture described in this paper actually replaces the role of alchemy with Transfiguration."

Cedric was talking.

"On the basis of Transfiguration, the use of ancient runes and magic spells to enhance the power of Transfiguration is not XNUMX% impossible in rigorous theory. But I think the difficulty contained in it is probably not possible for wizards to do. arrive."

"We all know that in the process of our use of magic, just the superposition of two simple spells can stun most wizards."

"Not to mention the fusion of different systems of magic such as transfiguration, spells, and ancient runes. I think such difficulty will make people feel hopeless."

He raised his notebook and showed the dense handwriting on it.

"I'm just listing the magical knowledge needed to achieve this conjecture theoretically. Of course, this is only what I can think of." He said helplessly, "I don't know how to implement more parts."

He put down the notebook.

"To be honest, this alone scares me." He looked up at Professor McGonagall again, "Assuming that even if all the problems are solved in theory, I don't think anyone can use it successfully in practice. ."

"Maybe if it's Merlin?" He joked at the end, then laughed to himself.

Professor McGonagall also raised her mouth when she heard the words. She nodded to Cedric, then looked at Scott.

"The last one, what are your thoughts, Mr. Trollope."

"I'm very interested in this paper and its authors, Professor."

Scott stood up and smiled.

"I will write to Mr. Weasley, the author of the paper." He glanced back at Percy. "There are five Weasleys in Gryffindor now. Anyone is welcome. I hope you can introduce me."

Lots of people in the classroom laughed, even Percy, who gave Scott a no-nonsense gesture.

"I think what you need is to publish your own opinion on the paper, Mr. Trollope," said Professor McGonagall, "rather than stating your plans for the authorship of the paper."

"Hahahahahaha..."

This time, the others couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Uh..."

Scott looked at Professor McGonagall's smiling eyes resentfully, but he choked firmly.

I didn't expect you to be such a Professor McGonagall!

snort!As expected of you, Yingjilan!

"Ok."

When the laughter stopped, Scott continued: "To be honest, I had the same idea as this paper."

There were several boos in the classroom.

Scott ignored it, "Of course, that's just my fantasy, without any actual basis."

"So when I saw this paper, I was very excited. After all, Mr. Weasley's paper was better than my daydream, at least he laid out some supporting evidence."

Scott stopped here.

"Those magical creations left in the ancient Egyptian pyramids, the theoretical alchemy can't achieve such a seamless effect, but the theoretical perfect transfiguration can."

Speaking of this, there was a strong emotion in his eyes, which was the greed and desire for knowledge.

"I understand your heart-warming feelings, Mr. Trollope." The smile on Professor McGonagall's face has disappeared, "but I suggest you just broaden your horizons through other people's papers and get some inspiration, but I don't think it's a good thing that you're addicted to it."

She didn't want to listen to Scott anymore, so she reached out and pressed her palm, motioning Scott to sit down.

"Yes, Professor."

Scott obediently closed his mouth and sat down.

This concludes the discussion of this paper.

Next, Professor McGonagall began to teach members of the Transfiguration Club some useful tips for using Transfiguration.

Scott quickly put the paper aside and listened carefully.

When the day's club activities were over, Professor McGonagall asked Scott to stay.
