The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific

Chapter 661: Lost Civilization and Successful Deception
In Andy's opinion, since all the paths leading to the magic destination lead to the same destination, each path can learn from each other.

Among the seven principles of alchemy, the spiritual principle is one of them.

Everything is animistic.

This may be the commonality between alchemy and spells.

"But it's a bit too early to say that now."

Andy added: "...I haven't even started yet!"

Hermione leaned over to take a look at Andy's notes, "Are you studying pictograms?"

"This is the basis of alchemy," said Andy.

Hogwarts' Ancient Magical Writings class involves the hieroglyphics of alchemy. However, Ancient Magical Writings is not a professional alchemy class after all, and it is more about translating ancient documents.

When it comes to alchemy, Andy still has to mainly learn on his own.

Each hieroglyph represents a special meaning, and when they are combined together, they work wonders.

"It looks a lot like another script," said Hermione.

"Of course it's text!"

Andy said: "These symbols may be the writing of a lost civilization, but have been forgotten by history."

"Perhaps a long time ago, wizards also had their own kingdom."

"Instead of hiding in a country built by Muggles like we are now."

Hermione's eyes lit up when she heard that, "You mean... King Arthur?"

In the wizarding world, Merlin is real.

Some people even say with certainty that Merlin graduated from Slytherin.

However, the records about King Arthur who is related to Merlin are vague, and the stories about him are even regarded as unofficial history and legends.

There is also no record of King Arthur in Muggle history.

This is very weird!

A real wizard in the magical world and a king who appeared in unofficial history and legend were inexplicably combined together.

Who made up this story?
"You suspect that King Arthur established a wizarding kingdom, but for some reason, this history has been hidden?" Hermione said in shock.

In fact, Andy and Hermione had discussed the story of Merlin a year ago, and they both agreed that the history of the wizarding world had been artificially tampered with.

To this end, the two also consulted a lot of information.

But even the famous contemporary historian Bathilda Bagshot cannot confirm this history.

“He may not be the first.”

Andy guessed, "Perhaps in ancient times, someone established a wizard kingdom. The pictographic runes of alchemy are the writing of that time."

"But...why didn't History of Magic record this history?" Hermione did not deny Andy's guess, but she believed more in real evidence.

"That's the point!"

Andy said: "There may be a shocking secret hidden in this."

Snapped!
Andy snapped his fingers and cast a silencing spell around the two of them, then continued, "There is a magical room in the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic called the Hall of Death. There is an archway in the Hall of Death that leads to the dimension of death."

“…That’s the abode of the dead.”

Hermione: "..."

Hermione looked at Andy and blinked.

She felt that Andy was fooling her.

"How do you know?" Hermione asked doubtfully.

"I've been there," Andy said.

"How did you get there?" Hermione still didn't believe it.

"I used the Disillusionment Charm," said Andy.

Hermione: "..."

If Andy had ever sneaked into the Ministry of Magic, Hermione thought this possibility was very high.

He has never been a good person!
"You will be thrown into Azkaban sooner or later!" Hermione said gritting her teeth.

"Aurors can't do that," Andy laughed.

"Professor Dumbledore can!" Hermione snorted. "I just said I forgot something!"

Andy slapped his thigh and said, "I told Dumbledore before that I would duel with him this semester. If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten it."

Hermione: "..."

"You want to duel with Professor Dumbledore?" Hermione asked in shock.

"Hermione, how about you be our referee?" Andy invited.

"No!"

Hermione refused sternly, "But... I can consider being a cheerleader for Professor Dumbledore."

"You are my girlfriend!" Andy emphasized the point.

"I am also Professor Dumbledore's student." Hermione said.

"Forget it... let's get down to business first!"

Andy changed the subject. "I suspect that the Ministry of Magic has hidden many secrets. These secrets are hidden in the Department of Mysteries. They are also the ones who modified the history of the wizarding world."

Hermione frowned slightly, "It's impossible that all Ministries of Magic have revised history?"

They had checked the information before.

At least there is no relevant record in the Hogwarts library.

As for the Ministry of Magic...

Every country had a Ministry of Magic, and Hermione found it hard to believe that they would all simultaneously revise the history of the wizarding world.

"What if this secret... is enough to turn the whole world upside down?" said Andy.

"We don't have access to the Ministry's secrets right now."

Hermione was a little discouraged when she heard this, "We can only investigate this matter later."

Hermione loves to solve puzzles, especially those related to the history of the wizarding world.

However, unlike Andy who likes to make wild guesses, Hermione values ​​​​real evidence more.

She wouldn't believe an analysis without evidence.

So Andy admired this quality of Hermione.

In their collaboration, Andy was responsible for guessing, while Hermione was responsible for finding information to confirm the guess.

The two of them worked together very happily (not so happily).

"Remember the Deathly Hallows?"

Andy said, "Death really existed."

Hermione was silent for a moment, then said, "Andy... I remember that the first thing we discussed was alchemy, right?"

Andy: "..."

“Isn’t this a discussion?”

Andy spread his hands and said, "Alchemy is an ancient magic civilization with a history of at least 2,500 years, involving many countries and regions."

"Alchemy has been recorded in ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, Rome, China, India...almost all of Eurasia."

"In that era, it was almost impossible for Muggles to communicate with each other. Only wizards could cross the entire continent."

Andy's words really aroused Hermione's great interest.

The little witch loves to decipher this ancient and mysterious magic civilization.

An alchemical civilization spanning the entire Eurasian continent.

More than two thousand five hundred years ago.

"Perhaps we can look up the origins of alchemy."

Hermione said excitedly, "Hogwarts was established more than a thousand years ago, perhaps there are still some relevant records."

"of course can!"

Andy said with a smile: "Maybe we can find some records of the wizarding kingdom from it."

"You know, in the age of cold weapons, wizards who mastered magic were almost the same as gods. It was impossible for them not to establish their own country."
