The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific

Chapter 667 Andy: I ​​have a bold idea
From a realistic perspective, in this magical world with wizards and magic, the history of both the Muggle world and the wizarding world cannot be that simple.

Because the International Statute of Secrecy was signed and implemented in 1689, and before that, wizards and Muggles lived together.

Since we live together, conflicts are bound to arise.

From the perspective of human nature, wizards with magic will definitely enslave Muggles.

Because bad people are everywhere.

But the wizard was forced to hide.

From this point it is not difficult to see that in the war between wizards and Muggles, wizards were at a disadvantage.

1689... In this era, firearms began to prevail. Coupled with wizards from the Muggle world and some wizards with a sense of justice, it seemed reasonable that those wizards who wanted to enslave Muggles would be at a disadvantage.

After a little sorting, Andy guessed part of the truth.

Hermione's face also looked a little unhappy.

In the history of the Muggle world, the witch hunt in the Middle Ages was an extremely dark period.

During that period, fires were raging all over Europe. Both religious forces and secular judicial institutions were vigorously hunting down witches, and many innocent people suffered as a result.

Since she is a witch, Hermione has always had complicated feelings when looking at this period of history.

She originally thought that witch hunts were just a product of an ignorant age, a cruel and extreme persecution campaign launched by those in power to fulfill their own ambitions and desires.

But now, she heard another version of the witch hunt.

Wizards enslaved Muggles, which led to their collective rebellion.

Now think about it, during that period of time, all levels of society, whether secular government or church, believed that someone was practicing witchcraft.

This is not normal at all!
How could anyone believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?

According to Muggle historical records, the social system collapsed and chaos ensued during that period. Famine, the Black Death, and years of turmoil and war caused the deaths of countless people.

Before that, manor economy was once very popular.

Manor economy...perhaps this is the system established by wizards to enslave Muggles.

The war between the two sides officially ended only when the wizard completely hid himself.

"What about the alchemical hieroglyphs?"

Andy quickly asked, "Is this a writing system invented by some magical civilization?"

Hermione was already lost in the sorrow of history.

But Andy did not forget that the reason why he discussed the wizarding world with Hermione was because of the hieroglyphs of alchemy.

Andy suspected that it was the writing of some magical civilization.

"may be……"

Ms. Grey gave an ambiguous answer to this question, "The origins of alchemy are very ancient. There are no records of them when I was alive."

"but……"

After a pause, Ms. Grey continued, "Alchemy should have originated in the era when runes were popular. Wizards of that era might have used this kind of writing as spells."

Andy frowned slightly. "Can the pictographic symbols of alchemy be used as spells?"

Ms. Grey looked at Andy in surprise when she heard this.

"I'm beginning to doubt your intelligence..."

Ms. Grey said, "Spells know no language. They have nothing to do with language... mind control magic, don't you know that?"

Andy's face darkened.

Indeed, it may be difficult to control magic with the mind and cast spells without a wand, but many wizards can cast spells silently.

From this we can see that chanting a mantra is not a necessary condition for casting a spell.

"but……"

Andy organized his thoughts and continued to ask: "The characters we use now cannot be used in alchemy... Is there anything special about those hieroglyphs?" It can even be said that alchemy is a magic system developed based on hieroglyphs.

Alphabetic writing is of no use in alchemy.

"A lot of words can be used in alchemy."

Ms. Gray explained: "Alchemy was popular in many countries and regions, and the hieroglyphs you learned are just one of the languages."

"Do you know why it's a pictogram?"

"Because these characters are evolved from images of objects, they have magical powers themselves and can be applied to objects."

At this moment, Andy seemed to have an epiphany.

That's it!

As long as it is a hieroglyph, it can be used in alchemy.

if it is like this……

Andy's eyes suddenly brightened.

Can the Chinese language from previous lives be used in alchemy?

If possible, Andy felt that it was only a matter of time before his achievements in alchemy surpassed Nicolas Flamel.

I am familiar with Chinese!
Thinking of this, Andy pretended to ask casually: "What about Chinese? They are still using hieroglyphics. Can those characters also be used in alchemy?"

"Okay!" Ms. Grey nodded slightly.

But before Andy could be happy, he heard Ms. Grey continue: "But... not all hieroglyphs have magical powers. Only a small part of them have magical powers."

"I remember... the oldest Chinese script, it seems to be... oracle bone script?"

Andy: "..."

I'm so sorry.

As for oracle bone inscriptions, Andy had only seen them a few times in books, let alone learned them, and just glanced at them.

"Is Chinese not good enough now?" Andy asked unwillingly.

"do not know!"

Ms. Grey said, "When I was alive, I heard... I heard people mention it a few times, so I know all this. As for now... I have been dead for a long time."

"Sorry!" Andy apologized profusely.

"But you can try."

Ms. Gray continued: "Hieroglyphs that evolved from images of objects usually have magical powers. You just need to find them and arrange them in the correct order to use them in the alchemical magic system."

This is a solution.

But after thinking about it carefully, Andy decided to forget it.

Now I am in the West and have no one to guide me!

In contrast, Dumbledore himself is a master of alchemy. If Andy encounters any problems in alchemy that he doesn't understand, he can ask Dumbledore for help.

What's more, there is Nicolas Flamel!

Although the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed, how long Nicolas Flamel could live was probably only known to himself.

What if he still has a few hundred years of elixir of life left?
These are all uncertain things!
In addition, Andy has a creative idea.

Alchemy, can it create a magical version of the online world?
If you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible.

Andy still remembered that when he first visited Azkaban, he encountered a world in a painting, and that world in the painting had traces of alchemy.

Plus the characters in the portraits can visit each other…

Andy suddenly had a bold idea!
