Chapter 539: What If I Want To Transform A Transformer?

In the third picture, a large desert is painted, with several clear springs emerging on the desert. From the springs, snakes are constantly coming out...

"Another snake?" Blake picked up the attached letter and looked at it.

In the letter, Dracula asked himself in a tentative tone whether he had received the previous letter.

He was also asked if he could understand the alchemical knowledge contained in these patterns.

But Blake put the letter aside as usual and continued to study the pattern.

When it was over again, Blake discovered that the owl that delivered the message had not left yet.

It seems that Dracula has also learned a lot and has to wait for Blake's reply.

Blake touched his chin, then pulled out a piece of parchment and hurriedly wrote a few lines before letting the owl send it back.

The owl soon returned to Dracula's temporary home.

When he saw the owl holding a note in its beak, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic.

The bastard finally replied!

Dracula quickly opened the note and read it.

Then he put it down again with a confused look on his face.

Because what was written on the note was not a reply, but two lines of alchemical formulas...

Dracula also has some knowledge of alchemy, otherwise he would not use alchemy to catch Blake.

However, he still couldn't understand the meaning of the two formulas on the note.

"Tsk... If you don't want to reply, you don't have to. What do you mean by replying with two formulas?" Dracula crumpled the note into a ball angrily and threw it on the ground.

However, he then thought about it, the country... Is Blake testing his alchemy level?

If his alchemy skills were not good enough, maybe he wouldn't bother to communicate with him?

The more Dracula thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, because human beings are like this, especially those who have some ability, they always look aloof and always have an inexplicable sense of superiority!

Thinking of this, Dracula had no choice but to spread out the parchment again, and then began to study it with a frown...

As soon as Dracula studied it, Blake did not receive the next painting.

However, Blake remained calm and everything was under his control.

At least, Dracula should not bother him until he solves his two formulas.

Moreover, Dracula guessed one thing right. If his alchemy skills were not up to par, Blake would really be reluctant to deal with him...

If Blake wants to do it for free, then you have to have something for him to do it for free.

Taking some time off, Blake finally had time to have a good chat with Mr. Weasley.

Mr. Weasley has been working in the Department for the Suppression of Misuse of Muggle Artifacts at the Ministry of Magic. This department is very small, and the head is Mr. Weasley.

"I've actually always been quite curious, that is, to what extent is it considered abusing Muggle items?" Blake asked.

Mr. Weasley replied: "Generally speaking, when wizards apply magic to Muggle products, it is considered a misuse of Muggle items. Well...just generally speaking, this is also to protect Muggles."

"Hmm...that's why you are responsible for writing the Muggle Protection Act?"

Mr. Weasley nodded: "Yes. You know, Muggles know nothing about wizards. If items modified by wizards leak into the Muggle world, the danger is very high. We have to protect these careless items." Poor Muggles who receive something that has been transformed by magic.

"As far as I can remember, I have dealt with a few serious cases, for example, a set of coffee cups that bite people's noses, a door handle that makes it impossible to let go..."

"I still remember that those two poor Muggles... were frightened and fainted. We had to dispatch urgently. After treating their injuries, we also temporarily revised their records... ..."

Blake thought about it and found that this did make sense. Some guys just liked to add all kinds of weird magic to Muggle products.

Taking the example just now, what is the purpose of a set of coffee cups that bite people's noses? Is it just to tease people?

If the person who got this set of cups was a wizard, it might be a prank, but if it fell into the hands of a Muggle... it would be a ghost story.

The Muggle Protection Act is indeed necessary.

"Then... broomsticks are considered a Muggle product, so why aren't flying broomsticks a misuse of Muggle products?"

"Well, because broomsticks are products made by wizards themselves. They are not made by wizards using magic on broomsticks produced by Muggles."

"So, what about flying carpets? Why are flying carpets contraband in the UK? Aren't flying carpets also a product made by the locals?"

Mr. Weasley explained patiently, "There are indeed many people who have this question. Flying carpets are actually more likely to end up in the Muggle world than flying broomsticks... Many times, when the flying carpet is rolled up, it Even the wizard can't tell whether this is an ordinary carpet or a flying carpet. There is still a difference between a broomstick and a Muggle broom. After all, Muggle brooms don't have legs. So, British magic. "Flying carpets are banned out of caution."

"Then... Mr., you modified your Ford car..."

As soon as Mr. Weasley heard about Ford cars, a trace of pride flashed on his face, "Speaking of this! I have to mention my "Muggle Protection Act"! The misuse of Muggle products is prohibited... Among them Abuse is very flexible and can be divided into malicious transformation and general transformation.”

"For example, as long as it is a harmless magical transformation, it is not considered a malicious transformation! If it is discovered, it will be fined at most. It is not a big problem. For example, my car can fly and become invisible. I think this is not a big deal. It will harm Muggles! Therefore, this is not a malicious modification. But the cup that bites people is different. The biting cup will really hurt Muggles! So, this is a malicious modification! It should be thrown into Az. Caban’s.”

……*******…………

Blake suddenly realized. The so-called "abuse" term in the "Muggle Protection Act" belongs entirely to Mr. Weasley himself... He believes that only malicious transformation requires severe punishment, while general transformation should be punished lightly. Sometimes even fines are not required.

Otherwise... What if a Muggle accidentally drives the flying car into the sky? How can we say there is no danger? But Mr. Weasley said there is no harm, which means it is not malicious and can be forgiven. ………………

No wonder Mr. Weasley was photographed by Muggles when he was speeding. He was only fined a small amount of money instead of being thrown into Azkaban.

Moreover, that fine was more to punish him for violating the International Statute of Secrecy than for abusing Muggle items.

"Blake, you asked me this...do you also want to change something?" Mr. Weasley asked.

He knows best about the idea of ​​​​reforming but being a little worried, otherwise he would not frequently amend the provisions of the "Muggle Protection Act".

"Yes, Mr. Weasley, in fact, many products in the Muggle world are very creative, but Muggle products are all electrically powered and cannot be used in the wizarding world, especially in a place like Hogwarts. So, we can only make modifications. I want to find out whether this is illegal before we come up with these products.”

"What do you want to modify?" Mr. Weasley asked with interest.

"For example... air conditioner? In the hot summer, this thing can make the indoor temperature cooler... If installed in your car, when you drive in the summer, it will It won’t feel stuffy anymore.”

"What? There is such a thing?" Mr. Weasley asked excitedly. He couldn't wait to put such a magical thing in his precious car.

After all, everything about his car is good, except that it feels stuffy when driving. Because of his unknown car, the air conditioner had already broken down.

"The Muggle products we use need to be transformed..." Mr. Blake Severs.

"It's not illegal! It's not illegal to modify the air conditioner!" Mr. Weasley immediately expressed his opinion. "The principle of the Muggle Protection Act is that any modification that is not harmful is not considered malicious modification, and of course it is not considered the misuse of Muggle items!"

"Then... what if I transform a Transformer? Doesn't it count as abuse if I just build a Transformer and then transform it into a car? Because there are no Transformers in the Muggle world! Isn't this right? It can only be regarded as a transformation of alchemical products?"
