Chapter 225 Be Braver

"Don't worry, Taylor, you'll be there when the paper is published! I can't believe that we would have taken this step without you..."

While Andrew was still marveling at the alchemical instrument, his dear seniors had already spoken.

"Ah, just a little tip..."

"No, no, Taylor, this is a major tip, or even a guide. It's something completely different. We're going to perfect it as you told us, seal it in a vacuum glass tube, and then publish it directly on Today's Alchemy once it's confirmed to be stable. Believe me, Taylor, this is the front page!"

Just a few words made it into a paper... Andrew didn't know what to say for a moment.

But there was no point in saying anything because he was asked to leave soon after.

"Oh, by the way, I'm sorry if I interrupted your research. You can go back to your work. Don't worry, we will be able to get a stable version in two days! Please keep it a secret for us for now, and we will report it to Professor McGonagall in two days."

The people in the lab stopped celebrating and started to work. Andrew had to leave and return to his lab, but this time he couldn't learn Transfiguration at all.

The glowing tungsten wire immediately attracted all his attention, and his mind was now filled with that thing.

Tungsten filament...heats...lights...

What if it was tungsten wire created by Transfiguration?
Will it be considered a strong attack under high temperature and destroyed? Or will it still illuminate?

Especially him - after conforming to the rules, the deformed tungsten filament is closer to the performance of tungsten filament, so what about the thermal installation light?
Just do it, the other party is packaging it anyway, so it doesn’t matter what he does.

However, for safety reasons and to avoid destroying the alchemy machine, he finally chose to ask the elf for some bamboo from the warehouse.

Because he still remembers that the earliest light bulbs used bamboo carbon strips for heating...

After treating it with flame, the carbon filament was transformed into tungsten filament. Andrew used Transfiguration to imitate the complete Bubble Head Spell to preserve it, and then walked carefully towards another room holding it.

You can tell whether it is a mule or a horse by taking it for a walk.

He knocked on the office door and was met with a firm refusal.

"Stop talking, Taylor. You deserve some credit for this. We won't agree to revoke it!"

If he hadn't spoken quickly, the door would have almost closed.

"Wait, I'm here to test new materials!"

"New material?"

"Yes, tungsten filaments, but they are made using Transfiguration. The main body is bamboo carbon filaments that will not cause damage."

"Ah, I know. We've read the information. There's a great Muggle alchemist who used it to make lamps!"

Um...Muggle Studies classes are still very useful in the wizarding world.

Andrew pondered silently, then put on dragon-skin gloves and began to load and unload tungsten filaments - after all, this was a precious prototype. Although he didn't know how to use more of these electric lights, who could say anything about magic?
"It's on, no problem!"

"I will try again!"

The Gryffindor students volunteered to install their own deformed tungsten wire.

But this time the light was completely different, and even flames appeared directly.

"Transfiguration... failed... the temperature is a little too high!"

But it was not a big problem. The machine was turned off directly, and the failed bamboo thread was quickly removed. The sixth-year Gryffindor looked at his work in surprise, and touched the one that Andrew replaced. If he could not feel the weak power of Transfiguration, he might even suspect that this thing was played by Taylor to trick them...

"A temperature of 2,000 degrees is not considered destruction? So the closer we get here, the closer it is to the nature of the deformed object... and..."

Wait!

Andrew suddenly thought of something very serious. He had experimented with it in his first year - the product of Transfiguration could not be affected by another spell before the Transfiguration was destroyed...

So, if it is the electric field within Transfiguration, will it be affected by the magical magnetic field?
He quickly put forward his own opinion - people tend to be superstitious about success, and he couldn't escape it a bit, what if it works this time?
"Um... Taylor..."

The other party looked at the enthusiastic Andrew with an embarrassed look, "We all know the principle. After all, it is the Transfiguration course at the beginning of the sixth grade..."

"But, Taylor, have you ever thought about what kind of Transfiguration can be said to be unaffected by Hogwarts' protective magic?"

what…

Andrew was stunned.

Indeed, what kind of Transfiguration could be unaffected by the castle's ridiculously strong magical protection?

Even their laboratory was operated under the protection of the castle, and he himself did not dare to say it - no, it must not be broken through.

"I'm overthinking..."

"But it might be a good topic. Maybe Professor McGonagall can... we can write it in when we write the report."

???

Stay away from me, don’t take me with you if you want to die, and don’t let your blood splash on me!
Ah, wait, serious research, that's fine - even if it requires Professor McGonagall to do the research, that's normal.

The professor was extremely tolerant of this, especially when there were already results.

That light bulb is really... oh, no, that tungsten filament is amazing!
-

The other party was worthy of being able to gather people to study the existence of the infamous power interconnection team in Hogwarts. Two days was two days. While a group of people in the castle were still studying the inexplicable squid summoning technique on the Black Lake, a new report had been written.

"Professor, the progress of that electrical experiment."

"progress?"

Professor McGonagall showed a hint of surprise on her face - the laboratory was only opened near the end of the year, and there were results now?

She read the report once, paused, and began to read it carefully a second time.

"Like this? Let's go and take a look."

The resolute professor took Andrew to the laboratory, and it was the first time that Andrew saw the real finished product.

Inside a long, thin tube was a not-quite-straight tungsten filament, with both ends protruding and connected to the heated alchemical instrument.

At Professor McGonagall's request, it was lit up easily, and even lit up once with the original tungsten filament. Professor McGonagall was even excited and used Transfiguration to produce a tungsten filament, which was also lit up.

"The light..."

She looked at the machines working over there, and fell into deep thought. It took her a long time before she said something with a smile.

"Madam Pince will be delighted. She thought even the glass lamps were too dangerous. Now the library will have enough lights."

???

Andrew's eyes widened - he had never expected Professor McGonagall to think like that.

Not only the professor, but everyone else looked at each other, and their original joy from inventing the lamp was reduced.

"Why the hell does it feel like my reputation in school is going to drop?"
