Chapter 157 Dragon Roar

The little wizards were looking at him from the thrones of various shapes. Although they were all thrones, they were basically similar to those in European kingdoms.

Almost all of them were armchairs, but they were different in shape and pattern. For example, Penelope's chair was a bit similar to the silver chair of the Swedish royal family.

It was shiny, and at the top of the back of the chair were two witches holding wands.

Miles from Slytherin was a high-backed chair with white and emeralds, and silver snakes wrapped around the armrests.

Cedric's chair was relatively simple. Except for a badger embroidered on the round back of the chair, there was no exaggerated shape.

Percy's chair looked like Fudge's seat in the "Minister of Magic at Work" publicity photo released by the Daily Prophet.

At one end of the armrest were two roaring lions with their mouths open, and on the back of the big red chair was the Gryffindor lion.

Zhang Xiao tapped the small table beside him with his wand, and as the small table twisted rapidly, a huge golden chair appeared behind him.

This chair is nearly 2 meters wide, and the base is inlaid with various gems.

The backrest and armrests are made of golden dragons, with finely carved dragon heads and gorgeous outer texture patterns, depicting the dragons in ancient Chinese mythology.

Zhang Xiao shook his head. His level was not very good. He was better than Hermione, but far from home. This chair looked okay at first glance, but the details were not enough. It was still far worse than the real dragon chair.

Sitting on this huge chair. Zhang Xiao's face suddenly changed. He miscalculated. This is cool, but it hurts your butt without a cushion!

Twisting his butt, Zhang Xiao raised his head and found that everyone was looking at his chair with a very complicated look.

"Zhang, are all the thrones in the East like this?" In the end, Penelope couldn't help asking, and she made a wide gesture.

Zhang Xiao carefully recalled the dragon chair he had seen when visiting the museum and shook his head.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason, and then they heard Zhang Xiao make a wider and higher gesture:

"It's actually much bigger than mine!"

The office fell silent for a while, and finally Professor McGonagall took the lead. She conjured a comfortable armchair for herself, looked at everyone with her azure eyes and said:

"At this gathering, I want to discuss with you the application of Transfiguration in combat. As you all know, something happened in the school recently."

At this point, Professor McGonagall paused, pursed her thin lips tightly together, and took a deep breath:

"I hope that if you are in danger, the clever use of Transfiguration can help you get out of trouble or win hope."

The little wizards also nodded solemnly.

Next, Professor McGonagall talked about some commonly used Transfiguration combat skills:

"Compared to spells, the advantage of Transfiguration is that it can attack in multiple forms. Only one spell can be fired at the same time, but Transfiguration is not."

Professor McGonagall waved her wand, and several daggers with cold light appeared in front of everyone, swishing and stabbing the wooden target in the distance one by one.

Everyone nodded, obviously understanding what Professor McGonagall meant. Even if the opponent can cast the Armor Charm, there is still a gap between the spells.

Even if the defense is successful, it can suppress the opponent and form a continuous offensive situation like a rainstorm.

"However, you must also be careful of the opponent's attack, because transformation is a continuous action. Without a sufficiently advanced magical attainment, it is very difficult to make the transformed creature move by itself to attack others and form a situation of more people fighting fewer people."

Professor McGonagall kept talking, and she seemed to want to teach the little wizard everything she had learned in her life.

Everyone was listening in silence. Hermione's note-taking speed had obviously reached an extremely high level. She didn't even raise her head, and her quill was trembling rapidly. Zhang Xiao planned to borrow her quill after class.

Finally, Professor McGonagall stopped. She raised her cup and took a few sips. She looked at them and asked:

"So, is there anything you want to know or don't understand?"

Zhang Xiao raised his hand and asked curiously:

"Professor, Transfiguration will not be blocked by the Armor Charm, so can we directly transform the opponent's clothes into something like chains? Or turn the place where he stands into a swamp and directly trap the enemy?"

Professor McGonagall smiled and nodded at him:

"Zhang, great idea, I think many people should have thought about it, right?"

Penelope Percy and other little wizards also nodded in agreement. This is indeed something that everyone thinks of when learning Transfiguration.

"Has anyone tried it?"

Penelope raised her hand shyly, her face slightly red:

"Professor, Percy and I tried this idea when we were practicing."

Professor McGonagall looked at the two of them with interest, with a hint of smile in her azure eyes:

"Oh? What was the result?"

Penelope twisted her fingers around the end of her long hair in confusion:

"It's hard to say, most of the time it worked, but there were also many times when I felt that Transfiguration didn't work."

Huh? What's the reason? Zhang Xiao was slightly startled, Transfiguration didn't work?

"It seems that your boyfriend has almost no defense against you." Professor McGonagall glanced at the young couple whose faces were already flushed, and then turned to everyone and said:

"Do you remember the effective distance of Transfiguration?"

"10-15 feet (about 3-5 meters)! Professor!" Everyone said in unison.

"Beyond this distance, it is difficult to use Transfiguration on objects, but this does not mean that we can easily transform things on wizards within this distance. The specific principle has not been studied clearly yet.

But according to speculation, there will be strong magical power around the body of a defensive wizard, which will prevent the transformation from taking effect, but the already transformed objects will not be affected.

Or. Your strength is far higher than the other party, such as me now"

Professor McGonagall suddenly pointed her wand at Cedric, who was closest to her, and the handsome boy was immediately tied up with the hemp rope that his tie turned into.

Everyone laughed together, and Cedric laughed happier than anyone else.

Finally, Professor McGonagall gave everyone a piece of advice:

"Before everyone's level reaches a certain height, Transfiguration should be used as an auxiliary combat, because Transfiguration consumes a lot of energy, and once the transformation fails, it is easy for the opponent to seize the opportunity.

As for how to improve your Transfiguration, it's still the same sentence.

Watch carefully, practice carefully, think carefully, and observe the things around you, and they will eventually become gifts for you."

Professor McGonagall's voice lowered. She was silent for a while, waved her wand, and the thrones of the little wizards immediately turned back to their original forms.

"get out of class is over."

After leaving Professor McGonagall's office and copying Hermione's notes with Copy Double, Zhang Xiao stood in the large hall, feeling a little confused.

He thought of Sister Bird's recent situation. Because of the major events in the capital, he had not been in contact with his father for a long time. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but take out the telescope.

The telescope had just been connected when he heard a long roar from the other side.

The roar was deafening and carried a dignified aura. Even through the telescope, Zhang Xiao felt his scalp tingling and his mind trembling.

As he approached the mirror, he heard an anxious shout: "Dragon Lock Chain! Quick! Lock it!"

Zhang Xiao couldn't help swallowing

This sound. Is it a dragon roar?
