Chapter 703: Chapter 51: The 11th Regular Meeting_1

Magic is a highly strict and rigorous craft.

Especially when it comes to magic related to human transformation, the related norms and requirements are extremely stringent. For instance, wizards who are first introduced to transformation magic need to sign a confidentiality agreement and a host of authorization documents, back up and retain relevant skin cells and blood samples, and leave their names in the relevant records of the Wizard’s Alliance.

In addition to specific cases of wizards, any wizard practicing transformation magic needs to report their post-transformation shape - partly to supervise these wizards in charge of transformation magic if they seriously fulfill their promises, and partly to protect them.

After all, under normal circumstances, when wizards transform, they usually become ordinary small animals devoid of magic power. By recording their names and forms, the safety of these transformed wizards can be greatly ensured within the safe areas designated by the Wizard’s Alliance.

Of course, this only applies to wizards in a ’normal’ state.

After the second transformation, Zheng Qing dimly felt that he might be able to ’break through’ the restrictions of the Wizard’s Alliance to some extent—such as not needing to report to the safe area before transforming, and not needing to be ready to sign a pile of documents at any time—meaning with just a small vial of transformation potion, he could transform anywhere at any time.

From the considerations of personal privacy and convenience, this is indeed a significant breakthrough.

However, from a safety perspective, this ’breakthrough’ is debatable. The ’safety’ here does not simply refer to the safety of Zheng Qing after becoming a black cat. After all, as a cat that can grow larger or smaller, climb trees and run on the ground, there is hardly any creature in the campus that could pose a threat to him most of the time.

The ’safety’ here mainly refers to the ’magic transformation process’.

As a wizard who has inherited the standard transformation technique, without having accessed any special transformation techniques and using the standard transformation potion, the black cat that Zheng Qing turned into surprisingly possessed magic power!

This is nothing short of a mockery to the entire wizarding world—up to now, all the books on transformation magic published within the Wizard’s Alliance mention ’Mendel’s Paradox’. This law can be regarded as the ’epistemological guide’ for all wizards practicing transformation magic.

And now, a novice wizard who has been in school for less than half a year and hasn’t even obtained his registered wizardry certificate has broken this law.

This may not necessarily be a good thing.

Therefore, Zheng Qing’s immediate task is to consult the professors on this matter and ask whether his abnormal state could lead to some terrible consequences—at least he cannot be like a certain old wizard who once recklessly used a divination master and was torn apart by a tremendous power of cause and effect in the river of time.

...

As he still had patrol duties on Saturday night and needed to catch up on his homework on Sunday afternoon, Zheng Qing didn’t find the right opportunity to consult Old Yao on this issue until the class meeting on Sunday night.

Perhaps it was because Moon Hunting had just ended, and there had been a lot of trivial matters on the day of the Yuanxiao Festival two days ago, today, Old Yao arrived exceptionally early for the class meeting. When Zheng Qing arrived at the Teaching Building East 601 half an hour early, Old Yao was already sitting at the lectern in the classroom, flipping through some documents.

The students who arrived early in the classroom all looked dejected—leaving was definitely not an option. It would be disrespectful to the professor behind the lectern if they left just after arriving. But staying in the classroom made the atmosphere too gloomy.

The time before the Sunday class meeting was originally when the students would exchange the gossip and tidbits that had happened over the last two days. But now, with the presence of the deity on the platform, everyone just brought out their textbooks and quietly did their homework.

So, when Zheng Qing approached the podium and softly asked Old Yao his question, a silent field of ears rose under the podium.

Hearing the question that Zheng Qing wanted to ask, Old Yao raised his arm and first made a gesture.

"Wait a moment," he picked up his pipe from the edge of the desk, and tapped it on the table. A cloud of ashes erupted from the pipe, fluttering and falling behind Zheng Qing.

This ash seemed to create a wide screen, not only blocking off the curious eyes in the classroom behind him but also blocking out the whispering voices behind him—Zheng Qing had reason to believe that the barrier formed by this ash would ensure that only Old Yao could hear what he had to say.

Soon, Professor Yao’s words confirmed this.

"... Now that it’s quiet, you can describe in detail the question you wanted to ask just now." Old Yao put the pipe into his mouth, leaned back, settling into a more comfortable position.

Seeing the young student’s uneasy expression, the professor added gently: "... It’s just a simple barrier for chatting, which can ensure that our conversation won’t affect others. I think the question you want to ask me, you probably don’t want other people to hear, right?"

Zheng Qing nodded vigorously.

Then he hesitated, slowly organizing his language, telling the professor truthfully about his transformation experience from a few days ago.

"You’re saying that the black cat you turned into after using the transformation potion has magical power?" Professor Yao summarized Zheng Qing’s key point, leaned in with interest.

A strong smell of smoke instantly entered Zheng Qing’s nose, giving him a strong urge to sneeze.

"Um, yes." The young cost-student mumbled and nodded, subtly moving a small step backward without changing his expression.

"Interesting." The professor briefly commented, took the pipe out of his mouth, pondered for a while, suddenly raised his head and asked, "You just said that you used the standard potion for this transformation ... did you get it from Professor Li?"

Law of Attraction - whatever you worry about, comes.

Unauthorized use of transformation potions is a ’flaw’ that, while not major, cannot be overlooked. Theoretically, such behavior already violates the related management regulations of the First University.

Even though Zheng Qing knew that he might touch on this issue when consulting the professor, he still held onto that less-than-one percent hope—what if the professor did not notice it?

Unfortunately, the first thing Old Yao noticed was this.

"The potion was bought in Beta Town," Zheng Qing steeled himself and explained, "I helped a friend before, and then he gave me a transformation potion. It’s a standard potion produced by the Fizzell Magic Pharmacy Company ... I still have its certificate of qualification here."

Having said that, the young cost-student quickly brought out the manual, certificate of qualification, and other materials attached with the transformation potion from the gray cloth bag and handed them to the professor in front of him.

The professor glanced at him with interest, receiving those materials.
