Chapter 430: Cannot Speak and Straightforward Translator

The farm was awakened by loud crowing.

Early in the morning, you could smell the fragrance of pumpkin porridge.

The steaming heat blurred the elm windows and the farm scenery, also making Xiang Xien, who had just come downstairs, unable to see the professor's face clearly.

The only thing that can be certain is that at the Marcus Marcus Maige villa, the professor is always more relaxed.

The little McGonagalls ran down the stairs crowdedly, clutching cookies in their arms, and ran out of the villa impatiently.

"Mr. Green."

"Mr. Green, good morning."

"Good morning, dear Mr. Green."

When they passed Xiang Xien, they would always stop to say hello, and then run away.

Ma Kusi Marcus Marcus Maige was smiling and asking them something, but the three of them didn't listen at all, as if Ma Kusi didn't exist.

This made a certain old wizard shake his head and sigh helplessly.

After a hearty breakfast, Xiang Xien continued his transfiguration practice; after reaching the master level, the difficulty of transfiguration didn't increase much.

Every day, Xiang Xien could cast at least five apprentice-level transfigurations, which means in two months, he could bring any transfiguration to 【Proficient】.

Life on the farm is always leisurely and smooth; summer quietly descended on this villa in the suburbs of London.

Dazzling sunlight is always present, and the scent of tulips always permeates outside the window.

Occasionally, one or two flowers would stretch in from the stained-glass window, adding a touch of vitality to the already bright and spacious room.

This is the third morning since arriving at the farm; Ma Kusi and Professor Marcus Marcus Maige were still drinking tea while checking the Daily Prophet.

The only difference between the two is that Ma Kusi would also read The Times for a while.

Beside him, Professor Marcus Marcus Maige put away the Daily Prophet and walked straight to Xiang Xien's side.

"Tomorrow is the full moon, I think we should start too, are you ready?"

Professor Marcus Marcus Maige said.

"Yes, Professor."

Xiang Xien knew what the professor was talking about.

That is the Animagus transformation.

There is rarely such time when they are all free and together. With the professor watching on the side, the risk of Animagus transformation will be greatly reduced.

After all, when practicing Animagus, people might go astray and be unable to turn back into normal humans.

There are many such painful cases in the wizarding world.

Transfiguration cookies can of course allow Xiang Xien to briefly possess the ability to transform into animals, but Animagus is ultimately better to use than cookies.

Besides, Xiang Xien was also curious about which category Animagus would be classified into.

"You have already learned about it, but I need to repeat it again; from full moon to full moon for a month, you must keep a single leaf of mandrake in your mouth.

You must not swallow the leaf or take it out of your mouth at any time; if the leaf leaves your mouth, the whole process must start over.

Tomorrow, we will first perform this step."

Professor Marcus Marcus Maige said slowly.

Xiang Xien nodded.

Speaking of which, Animagus transformation always requires luck.

After this step is completed, the wizard must take out the leaf during the full moon, fill a small crystal vial with saliva, soak the leaf in it, and let it receive pure moonlight.

At this time, if there are dark clouds, it will fail;

Next, add a hair and a silver teaspoon of dew to the crystal vial shining in the moonlight; the dew must be collected from a place that has not been exposed to sunlight or human contact for seven full days.

Finally, add a Death's-head Hawkmoth chrysalis. Place this mixture in a quiet, dark place and do not look at it or disturb it until the next thunderstorm arrives.

The problem with this step lies in the time waiting for the thunderstorm to arrive.

This could take weeks, months, or even years. During this period, the crystal vial must be kept completely undisturbed and not in contact with the sun. Once exposed to sunlight pollution, it will lead to the most tragic mutation.

It is not difficult to notice that the problems are almost all in time; if you are lucky enough, you can encounter the right time and complete the whole ritual; if you are unlucky, it is normal to spend many months.

Luck...

Xiang Xien remembered something and took out an exquisite small bottle from the suitcase near the wall—Felix Felicis.

Then he recalled the words of Professor Marcus Marcus Maige and Headmaster Dumbledore again:

"Need some luck..."

Undoubtedly, Felix Felicis can provide wizards with a certain amount of good luck.

D. A. members collectively took Felix Felicis when Dumbledore and Harry returned to Hogwarts, which caused the enemy's spells to deviate;

Horace Slughorn also took it during the Battle of Hogwarts, and in the end, he survived the great battle.

Felix Felicis can completely be called a top-notch magical creation in the wizarding world.

Xiang Xien roughly understood why Professor Sineipu would stuff a bottle of Felix Felicis into his suitcase; he held the exquisite small bottle, and some blurred images always flashed in his mind.

On the desk in the room, there was a Christmas banquet photo; Xiang Xien stared at it for a while, then took out a brooch-style object and hung it on.

After putting the leaf in his mouth tomorrow, he would face the problem of being unable to speak. To solve this problem, he made a special alchemical creation.

【Straightforward Translator】.

A plain name, with a plain function.

That is to replace the wizard's mouth.

The inspiration originally came from the Quick-Quotes Quill—it can record the wizard's thoughts. Xiang Xien gave it a second function, which is to convert the recorded text into language; after this, a simple translator was made.

The only drawback is... it's too straightforward.

"Tastes great!"

In the morning, Xiang Xien was drinking oatmeal and enjoying crispy sausages when the brooch suddenly made an unexpected sound.

Xiang Xien was stunned, then quickly turned it off.

"Wonderful creation. Child, I didn't know you were actually an alchemist! Oh, I seem to have seen reports about alchemists somewhere recently..."

Ma Kusi said with unexpected joy, then fell into thought.

The little McGonagalls were already fighting to sit next to Xiang Xien, and now they were leaning their little heads straight toward the brooch.

"Do you know what this is, Ba De?"

Sha La asked in a small voice, her head above Ba De's.

"I guess this must have something to do with magic."

Ba De said seriously.

"But Ba De, we all know this."

Sha La's little face was full of confusion.

When they were watching carefully, Professor Marcus Marcus Maige also cast a very interested look.

Xiang Xien, who couldn't speak with a leaf in his mouth, gently touched the brooch.

"This is a translator, Mr. Ma Kusi, Professor; it can replace a wizard's speech. But the drawback is that it doesn't have the ability to embellish language and can only say what the wizard wants to say most in their heart." ===== CHAPTER 431 =====
