Chapter 90 Anatomical Analysis Of The Chimaera And The Formation Mechanism Of Its Dark Magic Power
After the business in Cornwall was over, Levin and Ciri returned to the tower with the body of the Chimaera.
By the way, the evil bird also followed Levin back to the tower.
Levin named it "Circe", after the source of the evil bird, one of the banshee Harpies.
In the basement of the tower, Levin began to study the Chimera.
Since there are almost no records of chimeras being killed by wizards, it is difficult for wizards to conduct research on this dangerous magical creature, and naturally they do not know which parts of their bodies can be used.
Originally, Levin thought that the chimaera had strong magic resistance, and its skin was naturally the best material for magic resistance.
Unexpectedly, after peeling off its skin, I discovered that the peeled skin was similar to the most ordinary goat skin.
And the fur on its head is no different from ordinary lion fur.
With the death of the Chimera, it lost all its magical power and became the purest suture monster.
Its head is no different from a normal lion, and its body is exactly like a large goat with its head and tail removed. You can buy one for a few hundred yuan. As for its tail, it is completely the same. Only a normal dragon tail... only this part of the entire Chimera can be used.
"But...how is this possible? Why can these three parts be sewn together to have such terrifying power?"
So, Levin conducted a complete dissection of the Chimaera, examining each organ.
Finally, he discovered the clue,
The heart of a chimera is obviously different from the heart of a goat.
Only this part of the entire Chimaera corpse still contains huge magic power.
The heart and mass are the source of the Chimaera's animal power.
Levin probably understands the mechanism of chimeras.
Chimeramon, also called Chimera in other worlds, is a chimera monster created by the dark wizard, and what unites the three incompatible parts is the heart transformed by black magic.
The heart will produce blood with dark magic power, which flows throughout the body of the chimaera. It also combines the most evil traits of the three creatures - the greed of the dragon head, the bloodthirsty of the lion, and the vicious stubbornness of the half. Return to the heart and create a new evil calendar.
In other words, the essence of Chimera's power is the "symbol" and "meaning" of the chimera animals that make up it.
Now that Chimaeramon dies, this transformation cycle disappears, and Chimaeramon's strange power disappears.
Levin recorded a series of research results, and he was going to write a paper about it and publish it in a magazine related to magical animals.
But before that, he needs to use this magic heart to create his first [Permanent Attribute Elixir]
Based on the methods he learned when he acquired the Druid inheritance, Levin can make certain changes to the main ingredients of the [Permanent Attribute Elixir].
He planned to use the heart of the chimaera beast to replace the bear paws required in the [Eternal Bear's Fortitude Elixir].
The elixir of bear's toughness increases the durability attribute, and bear bears can be used as the main material precisely because bear bears are magical creatures known for their rough skin, thick flesh, and high durability.
But in this regard, the Chimera beast is completely better.
Chimeramon not only has stronger magic resistance, but also has a rapid recovery ability that is far beyond Xiong Hei's ability.
Moreover, according to the [Wild Ritual] obtained that day, as long as the [Permanent Attribute Elixir] is used in the ritual, Levin can obtain the creature corresponding to the main ingredient of the elixir as the object of wilderness transformation.
Levin's first transformation was to choose the Chimera.
In fact, before that, he was fully qualified to use the griffon's beak to create the [Eternal Eagle's Majesty Elixir], thereby obtaining the griffin transformation.
But after careful consideration, Levin chose to take the [Eternal Bear’s Toughness Elixir] first.
After all, the durability attribute is the basis of the [Wild Transformation] ability.
With a large amount of materials collected in the Forbidden Forest and financial support provided by the Philosopher's Stone,
Levin effortlessly gathered the necessary materials.
Add a small amount of chimaera heart slices,
Levin brewed the first vial of [Eternal Bear's Toughness Elixir] in his basement.
Next is the preparation for the [Wilderness Ritual].
Compared with the long-term tedious preparation and luck of Animagus, [Wild Ritual] only requires simple ritual preparation.
Hearing that Levin was preparing to experiment with the new Animagus method, Hermione and Ciri expressed their wish to watch.
The time Levin chose for the ceremony was late at night, when the moon was at its highest.
In most legends, the moon has a direct relationship with the power of beasts,
Moonlight can make beast-turned-human beings surge with strength,
During the full moon, this power reaches its maximum, and werewolves, as well as other lycanthropes, transform back and are forced to transform.
This is why the Druid Society that specializes in wilderness transformation is called the [Moon Society].
The ceremony took place under the huge oak tree next to the tower,
This is the tree into which Levin invested the most natural power when establishing his territory.
It is also the core node of the natural power of the entire region.
Before waiting for the moon to reach its predetermined high point, the three of them sat under the tree and chatted casually.
"The first recorded Animagus was Falco Esalon in ancient Greece, and his transformation was a falcon."
Even in the midst of small talk, Ms. Know-It-All still never forgets to perform magic spells for her companions.
"I think I've heard of this name... By the way, I've seen him on the chocolate frog card." Shirley thought for a moment before answering.
"Haha, you can only learn history from chocolate frog cards." When talking about this kind of knowledge, Hermione could finally maintain a sense of superiority towards Ciri.
During this period of time together, Xili's strong performance put her under great pressure.
Shirley dismissed this level of irony and turned to ask Wen:
"Levin, if you succeed, will you report it to the Ministry of Magic?"
Hermione was also worried about this: "I checked the information and found that unreported Animagus is illegal. Once caught, they will be imprisoned in Azkaban."
"Of course not." Levin said matter-of-factly, "My Animagus may be a little special, and I won't reveal it to anyone in a short time."
…Please give me flowers…
"Oh, that's it. Then you have to be careful when you transform."
Hermione didn't raise any objections. After spending a long time with Levin, she gradually became accustomed to Levin's deviance.
Geniuses are always beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
"Speaking of which, I plan to submit the article "Anatomical Analysis of the Chimaera and the Formation Mechanism of Its Dark Magic Power" to the "Annual of Magical Beasts" tomorrow.
Levin suddenly asked Hermione: "After all, you participated in the writing of that paper, are you still unwilling to eat it?"
"Forget it." The girl shook her head, "I just handed you the equipment and made some notes. This kind of trivial work doesn't deserve a name at all."
"But......"
Levin wanted to persuade him again.
"Next time.
Hermione said seriously: "Next time, when I can actually participate in the experiment and help you, I will still be in trouble with you if you don't add my name."
...0
Hermione also has her own dignity.
After hearing this, Xili looked at her with admiration.
"Well, that's a pity." Levin nodded and said quietly, "I forwarded this paper to Mr. Newt Scamander through Professor Dumbledore. I heard from Mr. Scamander that this paper There is a high probability of winning a prize.”
"Newt Scamander?"
Hermione became excited when she heard the name.
"Is that the author of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?"
"Of course. Who else has that name besides him?"
"Wow, I heard that he is the greatest magizoologist of our time. If he said that, it is probably true.
Hermione was envious.
"Award from a professional journal... it's great."
Coupled with the Order of Merlin medal that Tonks promised,
If this trend continues, Levin will probably leave with full honors like Dumbledore after graduation.
There won't be a single student like this at Hogwarts for decades.
"Levin."
She suddenly said: "Why did you choose me as your friend in the first place?"
"Senior Sirila is good at sports and has great strength." (Sirila: I guess you have a good eye)
"And I am an ordinary wizard who only studies hard. I am a little clever at most."
Levin touched Hermione's fluffy hair and comforted:
"No, you are very talented and the smartest witch I have ever seen. Even Ciri has to admit this."
Cirilla turned her head when she heard this and did not refute.
"You... don't have to compare with me. My situation is special. But in the entire Hogwarts, you are already better than 99% of the people."
"You have your own talent, what you need is enough time to accumulate."
At this moment, the moon happened to rise to the highest point in the sky,
Under the guidance of the giant oak tree, the moonlight swayed down like a mercury waterfall, illuminating the open space in front of the oak tree.
Is the wilderness ritual about to begin? .
