Chapter 54 The Magic of Ravenclaw
In the entire magic world, there are 11 generally recognized magic schools.
Like the three schools in Europe, there was such an event as the Triwizard Tournament before, and the contact is still very frequent.
In addition to this, Maoxiong also has a school - Kodos Dorez.
But speaking of it, Mao Xiong will soon become Da Mao and Er Mao. At that time, there will definitely be a big chaos in the magic world over there.
After all, although the magic world wants to be separated from ordinary people, it cannot be separated at all.
There are only hundreds of thousands of wizards in the whole world, and they are scattered all over the world. It is difficult to form a sound society.
Like the British magic world, there is no one engaged in production.
General food and raw materials are imported from Muggles by the Ministry of Magic through exclusive channels.
Even in contact with the Muggle Prime Minister.
In addition to Mao Bear School, there is also Eagle Sauce's Ilvermorny. In the Fantastic Beasts movies, that's home.
Like Slytherin's wand, it turned into a big tree in that school~
There is also the magic institute of the little days.
According to Ted's imagination, it should be something like Yin Yang Liao? Specialized in teaching onmyoji and mages? Are there any witches? don't know.
And there is only one magic school in the whole of Africa—Ouagadou. It has the largest number of people, after all, there is only one wizard academy in the whole continent. It's okay if it's not Wakanda~
There is also a Castrobushe in Brazil, built in the tropical rainforest. They are said to be very good at Herbalism and Magizoology.
I don’t know if there are three more schools. They rarely communicate with the outside world. They should be teaching institutions that maintain the principle of avoiding the world, such as Karma Taj located in the Himalayas~
Okay, just kidding, if it really happened, it would be called a tragedy!
In ancient areas like China and India, there must be mysterious institutions that teach "magic" or other names.
It's just that based on Ted's understanding of the Celestial Dynasty, he must have been divided into various sects.
In India, too, there are many factions, some of which are quite legendary, such as the **** power faction!
They advocate that behavior to increase their strength, the more people, the bigger the scale, and the weirder the objects, the better!
So what kind of monitor lizards and crocodiles... I won’t talk about it if there are too many, let’s experience it by yourself~
In that ancient area, many inheritances are based on apprenticeship.
On the European side, apprenticeships have basically disappeared over the years.
How can an individual's teaching level be as high as that of the whole school? The only advantage is that it can be one-on-one, but the bias must be serious.
Ted learned a lot about the magic concept in India from the chat with the twin sisters, especially about will, magic power and belief.
The "magic system" in the East is almost completely different from that in Europe.
Especially in terms of faith. Indian beliefs are so miscellaneous!
The Celestial Dynasty is already chaotic enough. It claims to believe what works, but India is even more outrageous.
But they also admit that God didn't exist in the beginning - but, but friends, but the number of people who believe in it, God was born!
God is man-made!
So, over there, many of their gods are really useful! There is really someone who can receive "divine power"!
This is confusing.
Could it be that I believe in the teaching of Feitian pasta, is it true that a master of Feitian pasta was born in the end, and then the cooking is not bad?
This is somewhat similar to the idea of the "Chaos faction". After all, they can "ask for help" such as Doraemon, Ultraman Tiga and other "gods".
The "spiritual prayer" theory of self-made gods is very similar to that of India.
Ted's foundation is still too shallow, and he has been exposed to too many fundamental things, and it is easy to confuse himself.
But even if you don’t think about the issues of belief and God, a “magic power” is enough for Ted to think about.
In fact, in the library, Ted has seen three or four hypotheses.
Many wizards have studied the origin of magic power throughout the ages.
Where does the magic come from?
Where does the magic power in the wizard come from?
Some people think it is blood, which inherits magical power.
This is why, most of the time, the children of wizards are also wizards. Even if it is a squib, the descendants of many years later have the opportunity to give birth to wizards.
But there is a problem, that is, who did the first wizard, or the first generation of wizards, inherit the magical blood from? Where did this magical bloodline come from?
Could it be possible, like the monitor lizard faction, I mean the **** power faction, with humanoid magical creatures?
It is not impossible.
Some people also believe that magic power comes from the wizard's will, and it is in the will that magic power is born.
It is also said that it comes from the soul. They think that the soul of a wizard is different from that of a Muggle.
It is also said that it comes from nature and is a "benign mutation".
It is even said to be the power of the stars—yes, that’s what some wizards who engage in astrology and prophecy think. After all, the stars in the sky do have a great magical influence.
Derived from the origin of magic power, there will be the origin of the curse.
Were the spells invented by wizards, or discovered by wizards?
After comparing the mobilization data, Ted came to the conclusion that it was invented by wizards!
You know, little wizards don't need spells or even magic wands to cause various phenomena during magic riots.
That is to say, the first wizards may cast spells silently and without a staff.
Later, in order to show more and more complex effects, and to reduce the difficulty of casting and learning, the spell was summed up over a long period of use.
Ted’s understanding is: the spell is a hint to the wizards themselves, making them believe that after performing these actions and words, this result will definitely happen. Even the spell may be an allusion to one's own magical powers.
And this divergent thinking also made Ted suddenly think of what Helena said before - "In the last few years, my mother really put down rune casting and many ancient magics, and instead studied some unusual magics. ".
Rune casting is still there, but there are very few of them.
Because it requires a very in-depth study of ancient runes, although it has advantages in some aspects, it is of little value compared to the difficulty of learning.
So in the past hundred years, few people have learned to pass it on.
Even the subject of ancient rune, only those alchemists are still studying-they can use it in alchemy.
And ancient magic, let alone, since it is called ancient magic, it is compared with modern magic.
Most of them have been lost!
It is said that both the underlying principles and the way of casting spells are very different from the current magic. And the power and effect are astonishing.
This kind of power is generally not widely spread. Because fear brings turmoil and confusion.
You know, now Hogwarts doesn't even talk about black magic, and even some lethal magic is not taught very much.
The Ministry of Magic does not allow non-Auror personnel to master too powerful magic, which is very detrimental to their rule.
Think about why the Chinese government banned guns, and then look at the number of deaths and injuries in Yingjiang’s shootings every year.
In the era of Ravenclaw, it was probably around the tenth century. At that time, the ancient magic should not have completely cut off the inheritance. At least for the existence of the Big Four, there must be some contact.
What kind of magical power would it be to make Ms. Ravenclaw give up the magic of ancient magic research?
…
Ted bid farewell to the twin sisters, and went back to the dormitory, thinking about it, and always felt that it was so bad.
After taking office as a psion and mastering psychic powers, he hasn't had this negative mentality of worrying about gains and losses for a long time.
He calmed down and began to meditate, not letting negative emotions affect his state of mind.
Now during the Christmas holiday, all the roommates have gone home, only Ted and Ansu are extra quiet.
Slowly, the spirit began to spread outward, and soon touched the common room...
It's still the statue, and the group of thoughts in the statue.
Psionic powers can detect thoughts, whether it is a student's pet, a wandering ghost, or even those magical portraits.
It's just a completely different feeling.
Pets have simple thoughts, but they are lively and agile. Ghosts are the same, but illusory and very divergent—in fact, ghosts also have difficulty concentrating, and they are always in a daze for several days.
And the portraits are different.
If a person is an oil painting with bright colors and complex composition. That simple-minded pet is a simple watercolor painting with average painting skills.
A ghost is a sketch full of details but vague overall. And the portrait is a stick figure—the lines are simple, although it can make people know what it is, it can't be called a good painting.
What is the thought in the Ravenclaw statue?
Like a "clustered 3D image".
The 3D area cannot be without Tifa, just like Hogwarts cannot be without magic... Bah~ distracted.
However, this divergent thinking still made Ted gain something.
Now looking at this group of thoughts in a special state, Ravenclaw’s final research must have achieved something, but time didn’t wait for me. In the end, due to some serious illness, I couldn’t even see my daughter.
It might be caused by a problem in magic research.
Throughout the ages, there have been countless wizards who have studied magic and killed themselves, especially in opening up completely unfamiliar areas that no one has touched before.
Since it is a "clustered 3D image", how about unfolding it and restoring it to its original shape?
The new book period is coming to an end, I wonder if I can make it into the top ten.
