Harry Potter: Hello the Dark Lord

After the incident in Diagon Alley a month ago, Qin Weijie felt a sense of urgency and fear in his heart. This sense of urgency and fear forced Qin Weijie to have the ability to protect himself as soon as possible.

Right now, magic was the closest he could get.

Of course, he also thought about trying to learn the Daoist talisman technique that his master left him, but after several attempts, Qin Weijie did not find any change at all, and he was not sure whether it would work or not.

In the end, he simply put the spell technique aside and focused on studying magic.

Magic is not a single discipline, but a complex whole of countless disciplines. It is a research method intended to understand the origin of the world.

Magic has a long history, much longer than science, so long that there is no evidence to test it. Its disciplines are very complicated, and many places overlap with existing science, while some places deviate far.

Ever since he learned about magic, Qin Weijie suddenly found that he couldn't tell the boundary between magic and science.

Even in Qin Weijie's view, if magic and science continue to develop, one day the two will meet in one place, and the day when the two meet, the boundary of the four-dimensional space will be broken.

If he had to find out the essential difference between magic and science at present, with Qin Weijie's simple understanding of magic theory, he would only say two words - magic power

The foundation of all magic comes from "magic power"

"Magic power" is the innate power of wizards. Only those who possess "magic power" can be called wizards and can perform magic.

Although there are many categories of magic subjects, none of them can be separated from the guidance of magic power.

Charmology needs magic power to guide the wand to cast magic, the configuration of potions also needs magic power as a guide, divination needs magic power to master "spiritual vision", and transfiguration needs magic power to change the arrangement and nature of cells.

Everything in magic civilization is inseparable from magic power, just like everything in modern technological civilization of mankind is inseparable from electricity.

From an analysis point of view, it is just that the power of wizards comes from themselves, while the power of Muggles comes from external forces. It is hard to say which is better, and which one is stronger depends on the situation.

"Hey, which one is stronger and which one is weaker is nothing more than wizards looking at the strength of magic power, and Muggles looking at the strength of firepower." Qin Weijie personally understands

As for the magic power, it is also graded.

Most of the works introduce:

Wizards will awaken their magic power after the age of 3 and before the age of 10, and they will no longer be able to awaken their magic power after the age of 10. The specific reason is unknown.

And this is the fundamental reason why all magic schools require students to enter at the age of eleven.

Because after the age of 10, it is doomed to be impossible to awaken magic power, so there is no need to enter a magic school to learn to control magic power.

Almost all wizards have extremely unstable magic power when they just awaken, and they will always leak magic power unconsciously due to emotional fluctuations.

Of course, there are exceptions. Some wizards have a natural perfect driving ability and can control the leakage of magic power very well. These people are generally called geniuses.

The magic power will grow together with the wizard from the day of awakening, and will enter a period of rapid growth of magic power after the age of ten.

During this period, as the wizard grows older, his magical powers will become stronger and stronger.

Of course, there is a limit to the growth of mana.

After a wizard reaches the age of seventeen, the growth of magic power will stagnate, and the magic power of most wizards will also stop here. Only a very small number of talented wizards will continue to grow, but they will not exceed the age of twenty.

This golden decade of magic power growth also created the level of magic power.

Qin Weijie learned from the book "Contemporary Theoretical Foundations of Magic":

Today's magic world generally classifies magic power into ten levels. The first seven levels can basically correspond to the magic power strength of most wizards from the first to seventh years, and the seventh level is also the magic power level of most wizards in the magic world today. Wizards who exceed the seventh level can be awarded the title of "Great Magician".

And can apply to join the Wizengamot.

Although he knew that wizards' magic power was divided into levels, Qin Weijie still didn't know the meaning of these levels.

In other words, they don't understand the strength of each level of magic power and the functional ability of each level.

For this reason, Qin Weijie read a lot of basic magic books, but to be honest, searching for a knowledge point among so many books is too cumbersome.

Qin Weijie: "Although I am used to the lifestyle of this era, I still prefer the days with the Internet..."

Finally, after traveling through the sea of ​​books for nearly a week, Qin Weijie finally found the answer in a book called "Analysis of Magic Power".

"First of all, I want to explain that I do not agree with the classification of magic power recognized by the magic world today, at least partially..."

The author of this book begins with such a sentence, which seems extremely deviant.

"As for the recognized division of magic power, I only agree with the division of the first seven levels. After years of research with the team, we found that the magic power of wizards is in the first seven levels, and the growth of each level of magic power is three times that of the previous level. When it comes to the division of the eighth level of magic power, the ninth level of magic power, and the tenth level of magic power, it is only 1, 2, and 3 times that of the seventh level of magic power."

"This is by no means in line with the laws of magic. Therefore, I think that the tenth level of magic power today can only be counted as the eighth level of magic power. And after our research, we found that there is an improvement above the eighth level of magic power (their so-called tenth level of magic power) space."

"My colleague Pusiosaus Quell once used the oriental 'meditation method' to improve his magic power after the age of twenty, and surpassed the eighth level of magic power (the recognized tenth level of magic power), so we believe that magic power The limit is not the eighth level of magic power (the recognized tenth level of magic power), and we will continue to use other methods to explore the boundaries of magic power in the future."

"Readers who want to know about magic power enhancement can look forward to our next book "The Source of Magic Power", which is expected to be officially published in five months."

After closing "Analysis of Magic Power", Qin Weijie took a special look at the date of publication—the first edition in June 1928

"A book from ten years ago? There should be a follow-up "The Source of Magic Power."

Speaking of which, Qin Weijie sent an owl letter to Lihen Bookstore, and Lihen Bookstore sent a reply that afternoon.

The "Fountain of Magic" was not included with the letter.

The letter from Lihen Bookstore only wrote, but did not find the relevant books, and attached a bunch of sorry nonsense.

That night, Qin Weijie opened "Analysis of Magic Power" again. The author of this book is Duka Stephen. In the column of author introduction, he graduated from Hogwarts in 1910 and then entered the Ministry of Magic. In 1925, he served as the Ministry of Magic Chairman of the Experimental Spells Committee. In 1927, he served as the director of the Department of Mysteries. In 1928, he left the Ministry of Magic to teach at Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Magic. Professor of theory.

Although the current Qin Weijie, a magic novice, cannot confirm whether Duka Stephen's theory is true, Qin Weijie is still very interested in him.

As for the reason, that is, Qin Weijie also read a lot of books (at least fifteen books on magic theory) in more than a month, and only Duka Stephen's books frequently mentioned the East.

Duka Stephen himself is very fascinated by the things in the Eastern Kingdom. He believes that the future of magic lies in the East, and the secrets of magic are also hidden in the East.

He himself even highly admires oriental yoga, meditation, and Chinese meditation, and he believes that all of these are beneficial to magic.

Moreover, in Qin Weijie’s view, Duka Stephen is the only objective scholar who does not advocate social Darwinism and pure blood supremacy. Theories such as pure blood supremacy and racial differences have never appeared in his works.

In other magic theory books, there are more or less "pure-blood wizards are more suitable for performing magic", "the growth of magic power of white people far exceeds that of black and yellow people", "magic originated in the West, and it is God who guides us to educate the world". kind of speech...

Qin Weijie himself is extremely disgusted by this, and only Duka Stephen's book is still an objective study of magic theory, so Qin Weijie is more interested in his works.

But it's a pity that Qin Weijie only saw one copy of Duka Stephen's book "Analysis of Magic Power", and he found it from a corner of the library in the Welfare Manor.

After several days of searching, he still found nothing, so Qin Weijie temporarily put aside the search for Duka Stephen's follow-up works.

Continue to invest in other learning.

For more than a month, Qin Weijie practiced simple magic in addition to reading books every day.

I don't know if it's because of his extraordinary talent, but the spells recorded in the book are basically not difficult for Qin Weijie. Of course, he only studied the books of the first-year spells and defense against the dark arts.

As for other books, Qin Weijie basically did not read them.

Qin Weijie knew exactly what he needed, and what he wanted was to gain some ability to protect himself.

Just tell me, how do you protect yourself after studying astronomy?

Summon a meteorite to kill the opponent?

Then it is not an astronomy class, but a forbidden spell class.

...

One day in March 1938, Qin Weijie was reading in his study as usual, when there was a knock on the door, Qin Weijie temporarily put down the book at hand.

"Master Foley, today's Daily Prophet and Times, and I have prepared some black tea for you." Mrs. Carter's voice came from outside the door.

"Bring it in."

Reading newspapers and drinking black tea every day has become Qin Weijie's recent work.

what is this? Enjoy early retirement?

Mrs. Carter put down the black tea and the newspaper: "Do you need anything else?"

"Not for now, Mrs. Carter. Go about your business."

"Okay, Master Welfare."

Mrs. Carter smiled softly, and simply helped Qin Weijie tidy up the messy desk.

Just then, a gray owl flew in from the window.

Mrs. Carter hastily put down her work and took the envelope from the owl's beak.

"Master Foley, it's a letter from Mr. Marquis. He asked me to inform you that he will send someone to pick you up tonight to attend an important banquet at Foley Castle. I think I have to go and prepare your clothes for tonight."

Saying that, Mrs. Carter hurriedly turned and left.

Qin Weijie glanced at the clock beside him: "My God, you started preparing clothes for me at nine o'clock in the morning? Are you sure you didn't make me a dress from scratch?"

Qin Weijie shook his head helplessly, put down the book in his hand, took a sip of black tea from his teacup, and picked up today's newspaper.

Times front page headline, a photo of Hitler giving a speech, with the Heroesplatz in the Austrian capital Vienna in the background

"It's already March 16, has Austria been annexed? The real chaos is about to begin. It's ridiculous that these British politicians are still helping Hitler to raise the flag... The century-old British Empire, the myth that the sun never sets, the giant is about to Fallen."
