Connor's Hogwarts

In order to create a magical car that is suitable for wizards and can pass the trial of the Ministry of Magic, Connor asked the forerunner, Mr. Weasley, the director of the Department of Prohibiting the Misuse of Muggle Items, and borrowed his family's small broken car .

As the maker of the "Muggle Protection Act", Mr. Weasley is familiar with all the loopholes in wizarding law, and he is also very active in exploiting legal loopholes. He has provided Connor with a lot of inspiration...

First of all, the Ministry of Magic does not prohibit wizards from using Muggle items, but prohibits "misuse". That is to say, in principle, magic cars are not illegal.

All relevant laws of the Ministry of Magic have only one starting point, which is to prohibit the exposure of the wizarding world.

Any behavior and objects that may expose the wizarding world should be avoided.

So here comes the question, will the magic car expose the wizarding world?Will a car that can run, fly and apparate easily expose the wizarding world?

The answer is - of course not.

Because such a car is actually no different from a broomstick, and no matter in the near future, magic carpets and flying swords will soon enter the British market. Even in the past, many wizards would transform their "mounts", and broom companies once Pass the pumpkin cart, a means of transportation...

That is to say, as long as you cast a spell to block Muggles on your vehicle, you can ride it on the street with peace of mind. That's why Mr. Weasley modified his car, because as long as it is not discovered by Muggles Well, he can actually drive a speeding car into the streets openly and aboveboard. This is the so-called exploiting legal loopholes.

However, if you are caught by a Muggle while driving a flying car, sorry, you will receive a lawyer's letter from the Ministry of Magic and may face jail time.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, if the Lake family wants to launch a new type of transportation such as the magic car, then two problems must be solved: [-]. Make sure that this car will not be discovered by Muggles under any circumstances; [-]. Make sure your new form of transportation is still attractive to wizards.

The reason for the second question is simple, because wizards are mostly old-fashioned and stubborn, if your new product doesn't really shine brightly, then why would they choose to use your new car instead of riding a broomstick?

In the wizarding world, Mr. Weasley is not the only wizard who has transformed Muggle cars. Indeed, many people are curious about Muggle vehicles, but this is not because they give up the more convenient Floo and broomsticks and choose one other than The reason for the magic car that is useless for novelty.

So Connor's research on the behavior of magic cars seems a bit thankless, because the current wizards don't seem to need such things as cars.

You can use Floo powder when you go to distant places, and you can ride a broom and magic carpet when you go out. Is magic car really useful?

Hehehe, Connor can clearly tell the wizards, no!use!

Yes, the magic car wizard is tasteless, it is a dispensable thing, the wizard doesn't need the magic car at all.

So why does Connor still study magic cars?

Because Connor's positioning, the consumers of magic cars are not wizards at all!It's Squibs, and - Muggles!

You heard me right!Connor actually planned to sell this thing to the Muggle world when he made it!

Remember Connor's communication with Dumbledore and Grindelwald?Connor's ultimate goal is not to make a fortune in the wizarding world. This goal has already been achieved. Connor's eyes have always been on Muggles, no, on the whole world.

The magic car will be a very important step for the wizarding world to influence the Muggle world. Connor doesn't want to make a magic car, but must do it.

Of course, this matter cannot be accomplished overnight. It will be at least ten years later when Magic Motors enters the Muggle world under the name of "new energy vehicles". By then, this book will be over long ago. So there is no rush at all.

The magic car that Connor is going to make for wizards and squibs is an experimental product, and because of its nature, it is destined to be a luxury. The Lakers do this with the mentality of losing money that no one will buy. of.

In this way, we have solved one of the two problems just now.

Next, all Connor had to consider now was the issue of [ensure that the magic car will not be discovered by Muggles under any circumstances].

Regarding the solution to this problem, Connor also had a bold idea.

The "on call" service of the Knight Bus inspired Connor, of course it does not refer to the simple and crude method of wrapping the car with Muggle shielding effect at any time, that way, it can be done casually without any challenges sex.

What Connor wants to do is to be able to drive automatically, walk freely without human control, be able to switch modes, support the use of land, sea, and air in any terrain, and be able to apparate, so you don't have to worry about traveling thousands of miles away in a blink of an eye. Being late, being able to navigate with magic, you don’t have to worry about not being able to find your way back home...it can also intelligently avoid danger, no matter what the situation is, it will not reveal your introverted excellent...multi-functional magic car.

In order to realize the above functions, one thing is inseparable, and that is the thing that appears repeatedly in these seven or eight chapters, but is deliberately not mentioned-magical intelligence.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Magical intelligence, that's Connor's name for some very unscientific but magical "creation" in the wizarding world.

Corresponding to artificial intelligence (ai), as the name suggests, magical intelligence (mi), is a kind of magic that uses the way of a wizard to endow objects with the ability to think and make them "intelligent".

Connor once talked to Camilla about the eras that Muggles have crossed. At that time, Connor said that Muggles are now in the information age, and wizards are many eras behind Muggles, and they need to work hard to catch up...

But Connor didn't tell Camila what the next era of the information age will be...

In fact, the current Muggles can't even imagine what kind of new era humans will usher in after the information age, but Connor, who is a future man, has a clearer understanding of this.

People in the future generally believe that the next stage of mankind may be the era of controlled nuclear fusion, the era of artificial intelligence, or the era of biotechnology...

All three of these futures seem far off for Muggles today, but...not necessarily for wizards.

Controllable nuclear fusion represents an inexhaustible source of energy. Muggles can't do it yet, but Connor believes that wizards have already done it. The Sorcerer's Stone is actually such a thing, which was discovered hundreds of years ago Figured out by Nicole Flamel.

Artificial intelligence... or magical intelligence, seems to be a very cheap thing for wizards. Wizards can easily make some items have the ability to think independently, such as Ravenclaw's eagle ring, Lake's magic painting, Mr. Weasley's car...Wizards have had the ability to impart intelligence to objects thousands of years ago.

As for biotechnology, well, Connor has always believed that "creatures" such as wizards are actually the remnants of "biotechnology" from ancient times.

You see, while Muggles are scrambling to move towards a new age, wizards seem to be at the finish line from the start.

Therefore, the backwardness of wizards is not actually reflected in the "age gap". Even if there is, it is Muggles who are behind wizards. the power of.

For example, wizards think that using Floo powder for long-distance travel is a very common and common thing, but you let a Muggle scientist come over and take a look?They're guaranteed to blow their heads off.

Wizards have mastered a lot of technology beyond the times, but while they use and enjoy the convenience brought by magic, they don't think much about the principles. Most wizards come out to work after finishing high school. Shape, can stretch without trace, can use a lot of deadly offensive magic, but they never wonder how this power comes from.

"I'm a wizard, so isn't it normal that I can use magic?"

This is the true thinking of the vast majority of wizards. They attribute their own speciality to their blood talent, and believe that they are fundamentally different from Muggles, and then take the initiative to separate the two worlds, each living its own life without interfering with each other.

Then years of isolation gave rise to the faction of pure-blood wizards.

On the one hand, he is intoxicated by his own great power, complacent and complacent, looks down on Muggles, and does not think about making progress. On the other hand, he sees the dizzying changes in the Muggle world and feels the pressure. Those honest and hard-working stupid students catch up" feeling of shame and anger, and then hate Muggles more and more-this is the general mentality of those pure-blood wizards.

The gap between wizards and Muggles is actually caused by wizards in the final analysis, because they look down on "ordinary people" because they are pretentious, so they don't want to be with them.

However, in Connor's opinion, the wizard's thinking is too narrow.

As a materialist, Connor has always felt very uncomfortable since he was born in this world full of idealism, just like he couldn't use the Patronus Charm before anyway, he felt that he was out of place in this world.

So you can't imagine how excited Connor was when he learned that the substance "Azot" existed in this world.

For Connor, this doesn't just mean that he can use a few more spells that he couldn't use before.

The appearance of Azot proved one thing: the so-called idealistic magic can actually be analyzed, just like potions have various pharmacological properties, magic spells are based on magic lines, and divination can also be analyzed by arithmetic—this world All the magic in the world is actually traceable, and it doesn't come out of thin air!

What's this?This? It is the study of things to know!All the unexplainable and incomprehensible magic is actually just because there is no way and way to analyze him for the time being!

Magic is just a science that can't be deciphered yet!

So Connor was not wrong!Wrong is the world!

Everything has its principle, knowledge lies in the investigation of things, magic is not unscientific, as long as we use science, ah no, to study magic with a rational and logical perspective, will wizards one day understand what is the soul?What is magic?What is the blood of a wizard?
