Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

The "lock-in" conjecture about the responsive house is easy to verify.

At Elena's request, Dumbledore first followed them out of the "Might and Magic" of the responsive house-not surprisingly, he also appeared in the corridor on the eighth floor of the castle-and then he Following the usual route, he went back to the principal's office.

The shiny oak door seemed to be held up by someone from the inside, and it was firmly welded between the stone walls.

In fact, at the beginning, Elena thought about trying out the effects of various lock-opening spells.

But under the explanation and persuasion of Mr. Hogwarts, she finally dispelled this somewhat arrogant idea.

Facts have proved that if the "any door" function of the compliant house is turned on, Hogwarts Castle will automatically lock the corresponding entrance and exit of that area as the entrance and exit of the compliant house, but this kind of space blockade is only for the inside and not the outside. .

For example, if you take the principal’s office as an example, even though the door of the “loading” office of the Bing Room has been replaced, they can still choose to jump out of the window, but they cannot fly in from outside—this is also the original defense measure— Unlike the undefended towers of Ravenclaw and Gryffindor, the windows of the principal's office cannot be accessed from the outside, and a very high level of magic protection is set up there.

As for the subsequent conjecture verification process, there are not too many twists and turns.

The only thing worth mentioning may be that after everyone left along the "exit" of the responsive house, the principal's office was not unlocked smoothly as planned-because Elena "accidentally" took a certain little phoenix Landed in the office.

When they returned to the principal's office, Little Phoenix was still lying on his stomach in his nest, and nothing changed.

"Oh, this is a multiple test, it can illustrate two problems..."

In Dumbledore's confused eyes, Elena stretched out her hand to take the little phoenix away, while explaining.

"Except for human beings, if these creatures such as phoenix and elves exist, then the responsive house will not automatically reset or close-at the same time, this behavior is harmless to the creatures. Otherwise, what we see now should be good. A huge pile of ashes."

"Well, Professor Dumbledore, you shouldn't blame me? After all, can the Phoenix Nirvana—"

Glancing at the old wizard with a complicated expression, Elena touched the head of the little phoenix affectionately, teasing the little chick who knew nothing.

As Grindelwald told her quietly, Phoenix never holds grudges.

Each of their lives is equivalent to a brand new life. Except for the inheritance of strength, life and contract, no memories of the previous life will remain. Phoenix's wisdom, character, and spirituality are mostly determined by her growth in each life. surroundings.

Undoubtedly, as one of the best magical creatures with high IQ in the magical world, the education of Baby Phoenix can't fall.

In Elena's plan, when Xiao Fenghuang is slightly older, she will try to start literacy and writing along with the grain reserves.

Although I don’t know where Phoenix’s intelligence limit is, according to Elena’s current preliminary estimates, at least the IQ of a fourteen-five-year-old child can be reached. Based on this, the initial limit is set to Hogwarts’ fourth grade. The course should not be considered excessive.

Of course, it is still a rather superficial plan.

After all, Elena hasn't made up her mind yet on how to maximize the potential of Little Phoenix.

Both the infinite nirvana and the magical properties of growing up are very tempting.

Maybe afterwards, she would have to quietly ask the other big Arcanas to see if they have any better suggestions.

Of course, these must be hidden from Newt and Dumbledore.

The principle that a loving mother has more lost children is not only applicable to the field of human education.

…………

By the time they left the office and went to the off-campus research institute, it was already three in the afternoon.

"Hogwarts-College Urban Research Institute" is located outside the gate of Hogwarts School.

It took half an hour for Elena and others to pass through the castle covered bridge and the forest clearing to reach this newly built area.

Driven by the wands of two top wizards, Dumbledore and Grindelwald, a messy woodland clearing was restored to its original level and clean within less than ten seconds, without delaying the pace of Elena and others. The two of them are getting more and more skilled now.

When Elena and her team arrived at the institute, the researchers had long been immersed in their work.

This is not surprising, the Christmas holidays in Hogwarts are only for wizards.

For those Muggle researchers from the former Soviet Union, there is nothing to celebrate on December 25th—Christmas in Russia is not at this time. This day is just a holiday belonging to the Western world. Their Christmas Have to wait until half a month later.

Moreover, the more crucial point is...

At the same time last winter, the sickle and hammer flag over the Kremlin fell forever.

Looking around, almost all researchers in the huge research institute are in pure white uniforms. The "chicken farm" employees who just stationed here just a few days ago have not seen any of them. It seems that they should have paid back at this time. Enjoying their Christmas holidays...

Except for the huge working area in the center of the institute, there stood a wizard in a purple robe of forget-me-not.

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows somewhat unexpectedly, walked across the crowd, and looked at the wizard curiously.

"Professor Lockhart? I didn't expect you to be here at Christmas."

Guidro Lockhart glanced at Dumbledore and nodded, but did not answer immediately.

Dumbledore noticed that not far in front of the young wizard, a complicated Muggle instrument was repeating the process of sparking, deforming, and then returning to its original shape, while on the other side. It is a machine that keeps drawing irregular curves.

Obviously, they are conducting some magic-science fusion experiment.

Hogwarts Castle will "indiscriminately attack" the surrounding Muggle electronic devices, or "fixed-point super electromagnetic interference."

Therefore, if you are directly exposed to the "Hogwarts Magic Field", most of the non-magical electronic devices will be completely broken if they persist for about half a minute at most, but the wizard has a completely unreasonable magic countermeasure. -Restoration spell.

Under the deliberate commissioning of Elena and others, the institute specially ordered a batch of extremely fragile electronic equipment.

When they are directly exposed in the "Hogwarts Magic Field", there is a high probability that there will be many observable damages directly.

At this time, only a wizard is required to continuously cast a restoration spell on the damaged object, and occasionally a very peculiar cyclic phenomenon will be triggered-the device may keep crashing, repairing, crashing, and repairing. Keep running in the loop.

Unless the wizard takes the initiative to disconnect from the cast, or there is a flaw in the magic manipulation, this cycle will be broken.

For example...

"Focus on, Mr. Lockhart...oh, forget it—"

A few seconds later, Elena and the others heard a helpless sigh.

Immediately afterwards, a female researcher with tousled hair stood up and tore off the last wave of the scrapped machine.

"It's almost your limit. Seven minutes and twenty-three seconds. You can take a break first."

"As for you..."

Arkhipovna turned her head and looked at the culprit who caused Lockhart's distraction, her eyes clearly a little angry.

However, as a senior researcher at the Landau Institute, she is well aware of another rule of the scientific research world:

Never completely indulge in academics and thus forget what reality is.

Not to mention that the wizards directly in front represent the strongest existence in "that world". The little witch alone is enough to prop up the small half of the bridge between mystery and science, not to mention that she is at the same time. She is also the "mother" of the entire institute.

In fact, the combination of restoration as before is the idea first put forward by Elena.

Although the results did not fully meet her expectations, it also made the progress of the institute a big step forward.

There is no doubt that the restoration of the original is indeed a powerful magic.

But it is not omnipotent, and its "recovery" is still a product of idealistic and subjective magic.

Perhaps it can repair the electronic equipment destroyed by the "Hogwarts Magic Field", but it cannot restore the data, and the most important point is that in the face of some more complicated and cumbersome instruments, even if there is a recovery spell, you have to do it. Check the faults little by little.

However, this is almost a good progress for most researchers.

After all, at the very beginning, the Hogwarts area was not able to use any electronic equipment.

Even if the barrier of "Faraday Field-Magic Version" was later adopted, it only solved the problem of basic usage.

And each time the use time is also very limited, because they have to sneak in while "Hogwarts is not paying attention", and the stay time inside cannot be too long, otherwise the "Hogwarts Witchcraft and Wizardry" may be Attack the entire barrier directly.

More importantly, if they want to measure and collect special wavelength data in the wizarding world, they must leave the barrier.

"I heard that you had a problem? Um... in terms of the final presentation?"

Before the other party could speak~www.readwn.com~ Irina asked first.

She would not foolishly let Ms. Arkhipovna speak first as before.

Just like Arkhipovna's nickname among researchers, the title "Landau's Madman" is not a joke.

If you can’t keep the topic firmly in your hand, Arkhipovna will be able to put forward a lot of entangled scientific research material needs in less than a few minutes. In terms of resources and the establishment of new projects, these geniuses IQ should never be underestimated.

As a little witch with strong self-esteem, Elena does not intend to be abused twice in the same field.

She opened her neckline, fumbled a few times in it carelessly, and finally took out a mirror.

"No, a freshly baked, top-notch magic prop-the mirror of wishing."
