Chapter 521: Explosion in the transfiguration class

The next lesson was Transfiguration. Although everyone was immersed in what had just happened and wanted to discuss Moody's practice, the three Unforgivable Curses, and Ivan's victory over Moody, but no one dared to do so in Transfiguration class.

Ivan over Moody, but no one dared to do so in Transfiguration class.

Professor McGonagall was strict, and anyone who messed with her class would be asked to leave and never come back.

She would go over everyone's summer homework and check how much they remembered of the Transfiguration principles she had taught them last term.

Then, before the end of class, everyone would be given a teapot to turn into a turtle.

For the young third year wizards, this was very difficult. They would have to spend a full term to learn to master this skill.

The top students in the class would change the spout of the teapot.

The exception was Ivan, who would pull out his wand and gently tap the teapot. A slowly crawling turtle appeared in front of him. The third year Transfiguration course was too simple for him.

Ivan looked up and Professor McGonagall was leading the Hufflepuff students to the other side of the classroom.

They were all focused on the teapot in front of them, waving their wands incessantly and trying to make it warp.

Ivan leaned a little to the right and covered his desk with his body.

He looked at the turtle slowly advancing in front of him, and the wand in his hand gently tapped it again.

The turtle's body twisted and began to deform rapidly. The horrible monster he had just seen in Moody's memory reappeared.

"What the hell is this?" Ivan looked at it anxiously.

He felt like his thoughts were jumbled and he couldn't understand what he was doing.

He didn't see the full picture of this monster. Many parts of him were blurry, hidden in the infinite darkness that surrounded him.

But the mere sight of it was enough to shock.

The bone-like spine extended downward along the central blurred humanoid, each segment corresponding to a grotesque torso.

It was a grotesque mixture of many types of magical animals.

Ivan still remembered that at the bottom of its spine was a huge dark blue turtle shell. It was sticking out there, looking very hard, protecting the inside of the monster's body.

But the most striking thing was the humanoid organism in the center. I had the feeling that this monster was based on this humanoid organism and developed around it. It was the core of this monster, and although its specific appearance was unclear, it was densely covered with barnacle-shaped holes.

It was like a shell soaked in the sea, slowly corroded by seawater, and parasitized by countless plankton.

Ivan originally thought that there was nothing in the world to surprise him since he saw the evil gods. However, when he saw this monster in Caresius' memories, he realized he was wrong.

This could be a new evil spirit, very different from the ones he had seen before.

Looking at the monster in front of him, Ivan couldn't help but think: 'Is this thing alive, or is it already dead?!!. Besides, would this monster be the difficulty Caresius and his people have to face? Caresius is a direct descendant of Slytherin, could this monster be related to Salazar himself!?'

From what I already knew, Salazar had left Hogwarts alone in his later years.

He took the evil spirit created by Herpo the Mad. In fact, he took the two remaining parts with him: the brain and the body.

Could the monster Ivan saw be the body of the evil god he had taken?

There was enough room for the monster to be placed in the massive ruins beneath Aragog's lair and the deep chasm that stretched underground. Before Salazar left Hogwarts, it could have been placed there.

This also explains why Salazar had to dig such a deep pit under the Forbidden Forest.

If it was only used to seal the eyeball monster, he could find anywhere else at will. There is no need for such a large-scale project at all.

According to this speculation, would the humanoid organism in the center be Herpo the Mad himself?

Perhaps he transformed his body into an evil god with evil black magic and became an immortal being, and that was the rest of his body.

It was a possibility, but it was all a mystery, and Ivan could only speculate.

Assuming that this monster was the evil god created by Herpo the Mad, he began to think about Slytherin's actions.

It was well known that in his later years, Salazar and the other three founders had increasingly divergent views due to their educational concepts about young wizards, until he finally left the school.

This was the official story, but could his departure from Hogwarts be related to this evil spirit?

Perhaps the evil god thing had been discovered by the other three Founders, and they were divided on how to deal with it.

The evil god must not be destructible. Even with the great power of the ancient wizards, it could only be sealed ultimately!

It would be a problem to leave him at Hogwarts, so Slytherin went with the two remaining parts of the evil god. Since then, no one had seen it, besides many legends about it.

So where did he hide this thing, and why would it be the problem the vampires had to face?

Ivan had many conjectures in mind, each of which was inconceivable. If he could clearly see the specific shape of the humanoid creature in the middle of the monster, he might be able to make a judgment.

He tapped the monster in front of him with his wand, and all of its body parts became more and more visible.

Ivan tried his best to remember and used magic to recall the image of what he had seen again.

There were many details he had not paid attention to before. At first he could only catch a quick glimpse.

Seeing them this time could play a decisive role.

As if magnified with a magnifying glass, the details of the monster became clearer and clearer, and Ivan could see them immediately....

The next second, there was a loud bang and the monster in front of him suddenly exploded.

It became a teapot again, and its debris splattered everywhere.

All the young wizards were shocked, and they all looked at Ivan.

There was a murmur in the classroom, and everyone wondered why Ivan's teapot exploded. Because everyone was busy warping their teapots, no one had noticed what happened next to Ivan.

"Mason?!" Professor McGonagall came over, looked at the debris on the table, and said, "You need to learn to control your magical power. You have introduced too much magic, beyond the tolerance of the teapot itself. Transfiguration is about using the right amount of magic for the task, not 'the stronger the better', you still have a lot to learn. "

Ivan promised and went to the front to get another teapot.

He was still thinking about it in his mind. Instead of making blind guesses, it would be better to talk about it directly with Caresius. Since this had happened, there was no point in continuing the stalemate.

Ivan decided to ask him directly what the monster was, its origins, and what their plans were and how they were going to get Harry out of school.

Since it was Caresius, not Barty Crouch Jr. then direct cooperation was the best option. Continued confrontation could only hurt both sides, to the benefit of Voldemort....
