Chapter 12: Different Fire Spells
After saying goodbye to Harry and the others, Mike headed for the Transfiguration classroom. The only class in the afternoon was Transfiguration. Professor McGonagall was not a professor who liked students to be late.
Mike's talent in Transfiguration was obviously not as outstanding as that in Charms, or rather, Mike was not very interested in Transfiguration.
Transfiguration was too complicated compared to other offensive spells.
After Mike came into contact with Transfiguration, he found that it was very difficult to cast successfully. It required you to have a very clear understanding of the composition of matter. In other words, if you want to learn Transfiguration well, you need to master a lot of physical and chemical knowledge.
This was really difficult for Mike. He had not studied these two subjects in his past and present lives. The only chemistry he studied was taught by his master when he was a "cook". He was okay with Potions, but he knew nothing about the composition of matter.
But this did not mean that Mike's Transfiguration grades were very bad. On the contrary, Mike's Transfiguration grades were better than most freshmen.
Don't know much about physical chemistry? It doesn't matter. There are many wizards who have not learned physical chemistry. Wizards have their own way to understand the composition of matter.
After the Transfiguration class, Mike got up and returned to the Ravenclaw Common Room to continue studying the emotional casting technique. He was very satisfied with the petrification spell in the restaurant before. It was the strongest petrification spell he had cast since he learned the petrification spell.
The emotional casting technique has a very obvious amplification effect on spells, which can be most directly reflected in the fluorescent flash.
If the light released by Mike's fluorescent flash spell is equivalent to the flashlight of a mobile phone, then the fluorescent flash spell that uses the emotional casting technique and uses full power is a strong flashlight. The light emitted is bright and has very strong penetration.
Emotional casting is actually not a very advanced skill. Most wizards will discover this skill in the process of learning magic.
Mike's seniors did not tell him before not because they did not master this skill, but because they did not understand the essence of this casting technique.
In their opinion, they just strongly hope that the spell will succeed when casting, so they succeed in casting, and the magic effect is also very good.
From this point of view, Professor Flitwick is indeed an expert in magic. He used the most easy-to-understand language to let Mike understand the principle of this technique.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was time for Mike to go to Flitwick for detention.
Mike was a little confused about Professor Flitwick's request to teach him the Fire Spell. According to his understanding, the Fire Spell was not a very advanced magic, and its power was not strong.
But he did not think deeply, and the most urgent thing was to continue to please Professor Flitwick.
The head of the Ravenclaw was a person with fighting power comparable to Snape. Although his performance in the original book was not outstanding, and he was often the joke of the professors, the title of duel champion was no joke.
And from the professor's appearance that was very different from ordinary people, he had experienced no less discrimination than Muggle-born wizards. Flitwick would definitely feel a sense of sympathy for himself.
When Mike walked into the office, Flitwick was sitting on a specially made high chair reading today's Daily Prophet. There was a ladder-like structure between the legs of the chair, which made it convenient for Professor Flitwick to climb up.
"Mike, you're here. Come on, sit down. My black tea is very good. Do you want to try it?" Flitwick greeted Mike enthusiastically.
After seeing Mike nod, Flitwick raised his hand and waved it gently. The teapot and teacup automatically flew over and poured Mike a cup of steaming hot black tea.
After the two drank tea and exchanged pleasantries for a while, Flitwick began to talk about the main topic of the night: the fire spell.
Mike had already previewed the fire spell before. It was not difficult to release this magic. Mike successfully released it after trying a few times, but the power was very touching. The fire spell released by Mike could only light a cigarette at best.
After Mike showed Flitwick his fire spell, Flitwick did not dislike Mike. Instead, he praised Mike a few words. After all, as a Muggle-born wizard, it was very good for Mike to master such magic. It was not his fault that he used the fire spell like this.
"The Fire Spell is a simple and practical magic. Don't underestimate it, Mike." Flitwick paused. "The Fire Spell is a very flexible magic. It can be released in different forms according to the caster's wishes." Professor Flitwick said
as he waved his wand. "Flame."
An eagle made of flames flew out of Professor Flitwick's wand. Every feather of the eagle was vivid, just like a spirit of flame. It flew in the not-so-big office, flexibly bypassing every obstacle, and finally disappeared in front of Mike.
Mike was stunned. He never thought that magic could be used in this way.
Before this, his understanding of magic was: the wand was like a pistol, the spell was a bullet, and releasing magic was like firing a bullet from a pistol. The power depended entirely on the magic power of the caster.
But Flitwick's move opened the door to a new world for him. It turned out that magic could be used in this way! It turned out that the fired bullet could turn?
"To do this requires a very high level of magic control, which is too far for you, and it is not practical, too fancy." Flitwick was very proud of Mike's country bumpkin look, "Come on, let me show you something practical."
After saying that, Flitwick took Mike to the bookshelf in the corner. With a wave of his wand, the bookshelf opened automatically, revealing the room inside.
This is a spacious spell training room. The walls around are all made of high-grade alchemical materials, and special protective runes are carved with ancient magic to ensure that magic cannot cause damage to them.
At the end of the room, there are several dummies. These dummies are not simple either. They are all made by alchemists and have unique alchemical spells attached to them, so that magic like Tarantella Dance, which is effective on living people, can also work on these dummies. Professor
Flitwick, who entered the room, did not say much nonsense. He pointed the wand in his hand forward, and a deep purple flame gushed out from the tip of the wand and sprayed directly on the dummies in the distance.
The temperature of these flames was so high that the air near the flames was twisted. Although the dummy was made of alchemical materials and had strong resistance to high temperatures, it melted almost instantly under the scorching purple flames and was burned to ashes in just a few seconds.
Flitwick glanced at the stunned Mike and laughed triumphantly.
He stretched out his wand and pointed again. The purple flames appeared again, but this time they were spherical flames that flew out from the tip of the wand one after another.
These purple fireballs were flying at a very fast speed, and some of them were moving irregularly in the air. In the end, these fireballs landed accurately on the dummy, causing a violent explosion.
When the explosion ended, the dummy had already disappeared, and only a charred area was left at its original location.
Mike's eyes lit up. He didn't expect the fire spell to be so powerful that it could even be used as a fireball spell.
Judging from Flitwick's casting just now, this was clearly a fireball machine gun!
"Magic spells are flexible and changeable, Mike." Flitwick interrupted Mike who was in a daze, "Most of the spells you are learning now have been simplified. Although these simplifications make your learning easier, they also make the spells you cast become dull and weak."
"Meditate and feel the flow of magic when casting. When you clearly feel the flow of magic, try to control it, let it accept you, and become your hands and feet..."
