Connor's Hogwarts

"Of course, there are less than 80 people in Ravenclaw. I have already recognized them, and I have already painted half of the girls. I am very familiar with them..."

"Ah, Connor, you are amazing. I can't stand a group of women chattering in my ears. It's great that you can attract their attention." Roger said with a happy face.

"..." Connor looked at Roger with mixed emotions. Is this a normal 11-year-old kid? Roger, I hope you won't come to me crying in two years...

"You are gone. Daoist Mo Yu remembered to bookmark this site, the updates here are really fast. Activate the trap card to confine the cage, and Teemo shoots."

"Ah! Why is it Teemo again!" Roger exclaimed, unable to accept it.

"I told you not to learn the lesson." Connor stood up cheerfully.

"Stop playing? Where are you going?"

"Well... I'm going to see Professor Knott. I hope I'll be back before dinner."

"Eh? Why are you looking for Professor Nott? Are you in confinement?"

"What are you thinking about, I'm just going to draw a picture for the professor." Connor and Roger waved goodbye, gave the girls in the lounge a wicked smile, and left the tower.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom is on the third floor of the castle. The owner here changes every year, and the decorations are different every year.

On the way, Connor was thinking about what his grandfather Di Wen said in the letter. The contents of the letter made Connor a little concerned, because his grandfather said this:…,

"Noter is indeed my friend, but we haven't been in touch for many years, and he never asked me for a painting. Although I don't know why that bad old man came to you suddenly, but if you just help him draw a painting, Help if you can, the decision is up to you, don't worry about what I mean..."

..., Connor even saw a resentment in the letter, and Connor felt that there must be an unknown story between them.

And Professor Nott actually lied, did he think I would not write to my grandfather to ask about the situation?Or is it that he really only came to me to draw a picture, not afraid of being found out that he lied?But the relationship between him and his grandfather seems to be very tense, which can explain why he didn't ask his grandfather to paint for him...

Connor's curiosity was aroused. Since his grandfather felt that Professor Nott could help, Connor was not worried that he would be harmful to him. .It can't be that this is also a Mad-Eye...

Connor knocked on the door of the professor's office.

The door opened quickly, and Professor Nott's bright smile appeared behind the door: "Oh, Connor, I'm glad you came over."

"Good afternoon, Professor Nott." Connor greeted politely.

"Come in, I've got afternoon tea ready."

Connor was sitting in the professor's office. Professor Nott's office was very tidy. It could be seen that he was a person with a very delicate life. Connor noticed a large box in the corner, and Connor thought maliciously that there might be a real Professor Knott..

"Connor," Professor Nott was sitting on the sofa next to Connor, with some specially made refreshments on the table in the middle, "allow me to ask...how far have you learned your drawing magic?"

Connor always felt that Professor Nott was a little... nervous when he said this?Connor rolled his eyes and said, "I'm already proficient in using the magic pattern of 'words'. In theory, I can draw the most

It's an advanced magic painting, but the last step of 'retaining marks' still needs a little help. "

The most advanced magic painting refers to the kind of magic painting in the school principal's office. If you want to make it, you usually need to use several magic patterns, namely "action", "connection", "speech" and "remaining marks".

These magic lines respectively endow the portrait with shape, space, language and memory. The first three are all completed by the artist independently, such as Connor's monster cards. All their abilities, language and activity space are given by Connor .Daoist Mo Yu remembered to bookmark this site, the update here is really fast.In fact, these are already considered the most advanced paintings, but these paintings obviously do not look as advanced as those paintings that seem to have a soul, so it is not surprising that Professor Nott would ask such a question.

As for the last step of "retaining marks" magic pattern, Connor hasn't actually learned it yet, but he probably knows how to do it.

The function of the last step is to use this magic pattern to inject memory into the portrait. This memory can be the painter’s, of course, it can also be the memory of the portrait itself. When the portrait has memory, many times these paintings will look like the person. It's the same, there are indeed many wizards who regard these paintings as portraits of themselves, but, in fact... paintings are still paintings after all.

How should I put it, portraits are like AI in the magic world. When they were first created, their behavior was just like the initial program, given by the artist. They can learn to make themselves more...human However, this does not change the fact that they are still AI. …,

Giving them memories is like forcing a bunch of data into these AIs, which accelerates their growth. AI will analyze these memories and play their roles well, but this does not mean that wizards can be reborn through portraits .

For example, if Connor drew a portrait of Dumbledore, and Dumbledore stuffed the portrait into his own memory, then there would be a problem with this portrait that could be faked. .When it comes to making a decision, whose mindset does it choose?

The answer is, not to choose Dumbledore's way of thinking, nor to make a choice in Connor's way of thinking, but...to choose what Connor thinks Dumbledore will do after reading Dumbledore's memory way to choose. (manual funny)

Well. .This is probably the case. The portrait after endowing memory is a familiar stranger, which seems to be a real one, but it is only a real painting.

With so much water, Professor Nott was anxious to wait.

"Great, Connor, you're a genius, Divin couldn't do this when he was young." Professor Nott was a little excited, holding his cane tightly.Daoist Mo Yu remembered to bookmark this site, the update here is really fast.After calming down, he said to Connor solemnly, "Son, before I do this, I have to apologize to you, because I lied to you before."

"Huh?" Connor pretended to be a dazed Yazi, but he thought in his heart: How could he confess so quickly?Tell me who sent you, and confess quickly.

"It's like this. In fact, I don't want you to draw me a picture. I want you to draw...someone else."

Um?How do you feel... different from what you imagined? ,

Chapter 42 Mandy Miller

"Professor, what do you mean?" Connor frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.

"It's like this. What I want you to paint is a friend of mine who passed away..." Professor Nott hesitated, "She has passed away, and there is no portrait left. I hope...you can help me to let her be here Leave a trace in this world."

she?Connor was thoughtful, "But professor, why don't you ask my grandfather to draw, I believe he will help you."

Professor Nott shook his head and said, "Because of some things, I have actually cut off communication with your grandfather, Connor, I am sorry for deceiving you before."

"Huh? So Professor Nott, you never looked for my grandfather?" Connor said in pretended shock.

"...Yes... And, I hope this can be a secret between the two of us..." Professor Nott said with a pleading tone "...I hope you can keep it a secret for me, don't tell you grandfather, at least don't tell him until the portrait is finished."

?Connor is confused, and you have to keep it secret if you draw a picture?I'm afraid there is not a big melon to eat here.

"Of course, I will pay for it. I know you have no shortage of Galleons. Is there anything you want in particular? My family still has some connections on the black market. If you want to raise a dragon, I can do it for you." one."

? ? ?No, I want money!I am short of money!My little money is kept by my mother.Moreover, professor, you want to send a child who is not yet 11 years old?Are you serious?This is illegal!Have you forgotten that you used to be an Auror? ?

"No, no, no. Actually, I have already written to my grandfather before, and he told me to help as much as I can, so don't worry about the reward." Connor endured the heartache and forced a smile. In fact, he was thinking: please Give me your money!Give me a little Galleon and I'll be happy!

"Did he say that?" As a result, Professor Nott fell silent when he heard it, and raised his head again after a while and said, "But I still hope you can keep it secret for me. If your grandfather asks you, you can answer yes Draw it for me, okay?"

"Uh..." Connor frowned, although it was no big deal to agree, but this request was a bit weird, and Connor always felt that this matter... would make his neck roll.

"If it really doesn't work. Daoist Mo Yu remember to bookmark this site. The updates here are really fast. Please keep it secret for me until the painting is finished, please!"

Seeing the pleading in the old professor's eyes, Connor nodded after all. After all, the old man talked about this, and Connor is not a steel spirit, so it's okay to agree, just eat melon for a while. .

"Thank you very much, child. Thank you for tolerating the waywardness of an old man." Professor Nott breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and walked to the inner room. "Then we are ready to start."

Professor Nott brought out a metal disk-shaped object from the back room. Connor took a closer look. Does this object seem familiar?

"This is a Pensieve. I borrowed it from Professor Dumbledore. We can see other people's memories through it." Professor Nott explained.

It turned out to be this thing. This is an important plot prop. Connor stroked the incomprehensible inscriptions around the round basin, his eyes sparkling slightly. …,

"We are going to use this thing to enter my memory, and the person you want to draw... is also in my memory."
