A Hogwarts Professor of Magical Writings Chapter 540: The Value of Ancient Magical Writings



At nine o'clock in the morning, Felix dressed neatly in front of the mirror and prepared to go out.

"Chuck?"

Valen, wearing a small scarf, looked at him expectantly.

"I can't take you, Valen." Felix lowered his head with an apologetic look: "I'm not sure if there will be any danger. The best choice is to stay at home."

He took out a memory disk from his ring. The memory disk drew an arc in the air and landed steadily on the small square table in the office.

A circle of dense magic loops on the edge of the memory disk was lit up, and the center was filled with smoke.

"In addition to being able to reproduce memories, employees in the company have found new application scenarios for it. Tsk, tsk, it's getting more and more like the future I envisioned..." Felix waved his hand again, and a plate of snacks and a pot of juice appeared, "You can use it to watch the live scene."

"Hum, hum!"

Valen walked towards the sofa dejectedly.

There were shadows in the hallway, and many students were looking at the DL stone steps outside the hallway. The air they exhaled melted the frost on the castle walls, and wet water flowed down the rough walls.

"Why don't they let us go and see? It's clearly in Hogsmeade! What on earth is Headmaster Dumbledore thinking?" a student said indignantly.

"I heard it's for our safety..."

"Are you kidding! With Headmaster Dumbledore and Professor Happ here, what danger can there be? Even if it's the You-Know-Who..." His voice dropped.

Harry, Ron and Hermione stood in a corner of the entrance hall. Ron said expectantly, "Can't we let Sirius take us there?"

"He was left behind himself." Harry said sullenly.

Ron looked at Percy on the steps with envy. He was talking to Dumbledore with a flushed face: "There are a lot more people than expected! I mean - they are all the best in their respective fields."

When Felix came down the spiral staircase, the entrance hall suddenly became quiet, and then the discussion became louder.

"Professor, we support you!" a student shouted.

Felix smiled at him, "Slytherin plus three points." The student was stunned, and then the support in the hall became louder. Felix finally squeezed out of the crowd and said to Dumbledore and Percy, "Let's go, are you all ready?"

"All ready." Percy said hurriedly, "The Ministry has dispatched two hundred staff members, including fifty Aurors and strikers, and has specially given a day off for this."

Felix nodded, and then looked at Dumbledore calmly.

"Alastor is guarding there." He said briefly.

"The school here--"

"There are other professors here, and Fawkes will summon me at a critical moment."

Percy was obviously a little confused about their conversation, but he could answer Felix's next question.

"Where is Ms. Bones?"

"Also in Hogsmeade. She is receiving the Ministers of Magic of some European countries and principals of magic schools from all over the world." Percy said enthusiastically, "Some of them came early and have been wandering around Diagon Alley for several days. I guess they have a lot of questions in their stomachs."

They walked down the DL stone steps and walked towards the main entrance of the school. Leaving behind a group of eagerly watching students.

Harry and Hermione looked at Professor Heppe's receding figure with mixed feelings. Ron muttered softly, "I've been with the professor day and night, and I've almost forgotten how far behind him there is. Maybe no matter how hard we try to catch up, we can only see his back like now."

"The professor will become a legend like the most famous wizards in history." Hermione bit her lip and said, but her expression was very unwilling.

"Do you think our names are in his legendary story?" Ron asked with great interest.

Harry and Hermione didn't speak.

"It must be." A firm voice said.

The three looked at Neville, who was startled by their looks. He stammered, "Just like a storybook, there must be more than one character, right?"

"You mean the supporting characters?" Ron muttered dissatisfiedly, "It sounds like Mafalda's argument. By the way, Harry, how has she arranged you recently?"

"You mean her serialized stories?" Harry said gloomily, "She described me as a ranch worker, and my daily job is to shovel horse manure."

...

Felix stood in the center of Hogsmeade Square, surrounded by wizards standing in three layers. They came from all over the world and had various purposes in mind, but at this moment they all cast their eyes on the young man in the center of the venue.

"As we all know, the perfection of every research field cannot be accomplished by one or two people, but by constantly adding bricks and tiles on the basis of predecessors. This is why I am standing here-"

"Isn't it because of the Elder Wand?" A wizard asked in a hoarse voice.

"It is possible that this factor has an impact," Felix smiled at him, "but the misunderstanding caused by my wand is a private matter. I will explain it during the lecture. Of course, if you want to experience ancient magic in person, it is not impossible, but you need to sign up first..." He pointed to a table in the corner, where two Aurors were guarding.

"Let me continue - any progress in magic discipline will bring us practical benefits. Take the wolfsbane potion as an example... For hundreds of years, we have been helpless against the werewolf virus. Once infected, it cannot be cured, but now the first brick has finally been broken. I can almost foresee the future: more complete and cheaper potion formulas will be developed; analysis and papers on related potions will emerge in an endless stream; of course, new theories will also appear; some people will even invent more targeted spells based on the principles of potions..."

"All this is not a fantasy. It has been repeated over the past few thousand years, like an invisible hand, pushing the entire wizarding community to make progress bit by bit."

Lupin stood under the huge projection screen and clenched his fists excitedly. If what Felix said was true, he was willing to use all his savings to support this cause.

The wizards were obviously more interested in Felix's speech. They watched him pace in the center of the venue, talking about his experience studying ancient magic runes:

"... Therefore, any magical subject is meaningful." Felix smiled: "They explain our innate ability - magic from different angles, slowly and steadily improving our understanding of magic."

Hundreds of Billywig-shaped magic devices in the sky scanned the scene of the venue and recorded the excited faces. From time to time, the white light and purple mist of magic cameras flashed in the corners, and at the same time, hundreds of feather pens trembled excitedly.

In addition, Felix's words were also transmitted to thousands of wizard families through magic radios.

Felix held the two ends of the wand in his fingers, but the wand was no longer as attractive as it was at the beginning. The eyes of more than two thousand wizards from all over the world were staring at his face and his slightly raised toes because of his excitement.

"And a new subject is obviously more valuable, such as ancient magic runes. Why do I have to dig it out from the past history? Because it does have a lot of potential that has not yet been discovered, and under the modern magic system, it can be combined with many magical subjects, such as modern spells-"

He waved his wand, and the 'flow' magic rune combined with the armor spell to form a light green water wave-like magic barrier; the 'light' magic rune combined with the fire spell, bright white flames swam around him; more and more magic runes appeared in the air, combined with modern spells, forming colorful magic ripples.

"Or alchemy-"

He pointed to the huge projection screen standing behind everyone.

"We know very little about ancient wizards. We can only find a few words from incomplete manuscripts and abandoned monuments. This gap not only makes it difficult for us to inherit the legacy of ancient wizards, but also makes us misjudge that era." "

For example: the power of ancient wizards is based on the extreme weakening of other abilities. I found from some ancient manuscripts that an ancient wizard - at that time, it was still a master-apprentice system - even if he mastered several powerful ancient magics at a young age, they still had more worldly troubles than modern wizards. They need to pack dozens of boxes when moving, and the most advanced means of transportation they can use for a long trip is a flying broom... They may even have to clean the house and cook for themselves, because not everyone can live with magic." One

wizard after another fell into thinking. With the appearance of Felix Hep, a question was constantly mentioned: Are the ancient magic runes - and the ancient wizards behind them - really as powerful as the legend?

Wizards also have myths, or legends. But many people automatically classify them as the same as the Tales of Beedle the Bard. Few are willing to believe that the magic miracles shown in the stories have really happened in reality. Breaking mountains, splitting seas, destroying the world with a magic...

Some people firmly believe, some doubt, and some don't think so. But today Felix provides a new perspective for judging strength: what is the standard of strength, is it individual strength or collective strength; is it the power of magic or convenience as the criterion for judgment?
