In April, the weather gradually became warmer, and warm and humid air currents moved northward from the Gulf of Mexico and finally reached the mouth of the Hudson River in New York.
At the same time, with the call of the monsoon, rainy days and thunder and lightning are becoming more frequent. They are like increasingly dense drumbeats, making the city rejuvenate from the laziness of spring and winter and welcome the fast-paced summer.
Finally, on a depressing afternoon, the whole of New York was shrouded in dark clouds. Rumbling thunder exploded from the sky and turned into muffled sounds as it passed through the clouds.
"Let the storm come even harder!"
In New Jersey, adjacent to New York, the vast wilderness is also facing an impending storm. But on a meadow covered by fierce dark clouds, a tiny human is opening his arms to welcome the coming of the storm.
Lynn had completely completed the preparations for the Animagus. He put all the essence of the Mandrake that had been contained for a month into a small bottle, and obtained dew collected for seven consecutive days from George Weiss. After mixing them, he waited for the crucial storm.
“Boom!”
A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the originally gloomy wilderness for a moment.
"Now!"
Lynn picked up the shovel he carried with him and dug a deep hole in a certain place.
That was where he buried the mixture of mandrake essence and dew. As long as he dug it out when lightning flashed across the night sky, he would get a bottle of finished Animagus potion.
Lynn shoveled the soil carefully, and when he felt it was about right, he squatted down and dug the soil with his hands.
This was a work he had carefully prepared for a month, and he must not destroy it with one shovel.
Then, another flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and Lynn's fingers touched a small hard bottle.
"That's you."
Lynn wiped the bottle clean carefully and held it up for a closer look.
The liquid inside has turned blood red under the effect of lightning, which means that it has become a perfect potion.
Next, all Lynn had to do was drink the potion.
"Amado, Animado, Animagus." Lynn pointed the wand at his heart and chanted the Animagus spell. This is a dangerous spell that acts on the heart. It will split the heart into two, one belonging to humans and one to animals.
Sure enough, the moment the spell was finished, Lin En felt his heart beating violently, as if it was about to burst out of his body.
"Gudong!"
He took this opportunity to drink the potion.
When mixing the potion, Lin En felt extremely nervous. Generally speaking, this ritual was full of uncertainty, and it was difficult to guarantee his success rate. He didn't know if he would fail this time.
But this uneasiness only lasted for a short time, because Lin En was now a very experienced wizard, and he knew that the most critical factor in the success of a magic spell was confidence.
Finally, he wiped the corners of his mouth and began to wait for the Animagus to arrive in the wilderness.
Soon, the potion began to take effect, his face began to distort violently, and he stumbled to his knees, his limbs trembling to support his body, and he began to groan.
It was an unbearable pain that seemed to tear him apart.
At the same time, his heart seemed to be broken in two, one side was beating violently, like raindrops washing the eaves; the other side was beating slowly, like a heavy hammer hitting a drum.
The existence of these two heartbeats made Lynn begin to feel lost.
A hallucination appeared in his mind, vaguely a black cat.
At this point, it was no use trying to quit, he had to persevere.
In intense pain, Lynn found that his body began to flex and contract, his palms gradually opened, and sharp claws stabbed out, while his clothes gradually merged into his skin and turned into black fluff.
He felt that his head was getting smaller, his field of vision was becoming narrower, and the colors he saw were gradually decreasing.
Soon, his pain suddenly disappeared, and he disappeared into the grass.
“Woo!”
Lin En, who had just successfully transformed into a cat, was suddenly frightened by the dense grass in front of him. He felt all the hair on his body exploded and the cat became stiff.
This was a side effect of his first transformation, he gained some of the cat's habits.
It was a long time before Lynn realized that his Animagus had succeeded.
What is it like to become an Animagus
Lynn thought this was amazing.
He felt that he could live as a cat. It seemed that his body and brain were reminding him that a cat should act like a cat, walk gracefully, jump cleanly, purr from time to time, bask in the sun, and catch mice.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
At the mention of mice, Lynn could feel his stomach growling. He seemed to have some magical instinct to find a few vole holes in the meadow and then feast on them.
And inexplicably, he actually walked to a vole hole. This should be his hunting instinct.
And because he had just become an Animagus, Lin En's overflowing magic power had not yet been restrained. His divergent thoughts turned into some unknown mysterious magic, and he actually drove out a vole.
“Plump, fresh, warm liquid, springy bones, rich nutrition, the joy of chewing, the pleasure of tearing, the pleasant screams… Crunchy.”
Looking at the vole, these were the first words that popped into Lynn's mind.
He actually began to swallow his saliva, and then, whimpers came from his throat. Lin En arched his body, all his claws protruded from the pads of his paws, firmly rooted to the ground, and at the same time, the precise angle and strength of the jump emerged in his mind.
only-
"Oh my god, do I really want to eat a mouse?"
At the critical moment, Lynn's brain finally returned to normal function, and at this dangerous juncture he stopped the horrific desire.
At the same time, the dark clouds in the sky could no longer bear the weight of the rain, and began to pour down torrential rain on the earth.
“Crash!”
Lin En tried hard to imagine what he originally looked like in his mind, and finally he succeeded in standing up, and his body shape slowly changed from a black cat to a human.
During this process, he no longer felt pain.
The Animagus was now complete, and he had to go back home to take shelter from the rain.
However, the moment he teleported back home, another storm came.
Three hundred kilometers away in Pennsylvania, in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secret base, when Nick Fury and his crew wanted to test the initial results of the Tesseract, a strong blue light flashed and opened a portal to outer space.
Loki comes to Earth again.
