Chapter 7 Reflections on Magic
As an otaku programmer in his previous life, Allen had read many online novels and had a good understanding of the power system in most of them.In fantasy novels, magic power is a necessary condition for releasing all magic, just like true qi in martial arts novels.
Moreover, magic power can be improved through meditation and eating natural materials and earth treasures, which is also an important criterion for measuring strength in many novels. The improvement of magic power is also one of the signs of pig's foot growth.And Harry Potter, as one of the most famous fantasy novels in the previous life, doesn't even have the concept of magic power?
Allen couldn't help but feel a little headache. Looking at the four elements of spellcasting in the notes, the specific wand movements, correct spells, and a certain degree of concentration of the caster are all understandable, but the caster's subjective view of the spell's effect Consciousness is too idealistic!
The concepts of magic power, true qi, fighting qi, etc. in the previous novels are at least logically reasonable, and they also conform to the law of energy conservation to a certain extent, but what the hell is the subjective awareness of the spell caster's effect on the spell?How bold are people, how productive is the land?
The pig feet in other fantasy novels have to carefully plan the use of their own magic power, use limited magic power to deal with more situations, and often fall into a desperate situation due to the exhaustion of magic power, and then enter the stage of breakthrough that everyone loves to hear;
There are also many villains who are successfully attacked by pig feet when their magic power is exhausted after using their ultimate moves, allowing the protagonist to complete the leapfrog killing monsters.
And if only the power of idealism is used to release magic, there is no limit to magic power.Then the wizards in this world are all magic forts!
As a traveler from a world without extraordinary power, Allen has also had many dreams of becoming an extraordinary person, not to mention that magic is the only way to solve Allen's physical problems, so he has always been very interested in learning magic, and also He was very interested, so after he got the magic textbook, he studied it very hard, but the more he read, the more confused he became.
Because all magic books read like an instruction booklet!
For example, in "Standard Spells, Elementary", the chapter on the Illumination Spell, the first part is a detailed introduction to this magic, such as what scene this magic is suitable for, how large a ball of light can be summoned after it is successfully released, and how bright the ball of light is. How much, how much range can be illuminated, how long can a successful release last, and so on.There is also a brief history of the spell, such as who invented it, who improved the spell later, and so on.
The second part is the release method of the spell. This part describes in detail what the standard wand movement is when releasing the lighting spell, marking the standard pronunciation of the spell, telling the speed and rhythm of the spell, and how to do it when releasing the spell. Visualize the effect of the spell, how to focus your attention.
The third part is warnings, which mainly warns the caster not to do what to do, and there will be bad consequences if they do so.To be honest, Alan scratched his head while watching this part, which is really a confusing behavior of human beings. For a textbook whose target audience is around 11 years old, these contents are written so clearly. This is because Ravenclae is not curious enough, or think Gryffindor wasn't brave enough.
Perhaps other people will not think there is any problem with this, but as a person who grew up under the red flag and has 16 years of education in elementary school, junior high school, high school, and university, this problem is very big.
How can the textbook write like this?Shouldn't we talk about the principle of magic first?How does magic work?How does the spell affect the real environment?Shouldn't you understand some theories before learning?
Just like when we get the manual of a rice cooker, we connect the rice cooker to the 220V power supply according to the manual, how to turn it on, how to choose a good mode, how much water to add, how much rice to add, and how long to wait until the rice is ready.This is the process and result of the magic release of "science".
We can release the magic of "science" according to the instructions of the rice cooker, but Alan fell into deep doubts after releasing the lighting spell according to the textbook.
Because of the magic of "rice cooker", he can clearly know that in this rice cooker, the current flows through the heating ring of the rice cooker, and then the resistance of the heating ring causes heat to be generated, which is essentially a kind of energy conversion.This is the content of Allen Middle School physics class.
In the magic world, a society that has existed for thousands of years, Hogwarts is the best magic school in the world, and its teaching materials for educating young wizards are like this. But somehow?This made Alan fall into deep doubts.
Is the magic in this world really idealistic?
Allen was a little unbelieving at the time. After mastering the lighting spell after a lot of practice, he found a rest day and frantically released the spell in his room. If he couldn't release the spell in the end, it meant magic power It still exists, but for some reason it is not mentioned in the book.
Later, Allen, who cast the lighting spell for three hours, couldn't cast the spell at the end, but what prevented Allen from being unable to cast the spell was not the exhaustion of the "magic power" he imagined, but his sore arm. He didn't move his wand, and apart from being a little tired, Allen had no other abnormalities, which made Allen believe that there is no concept of magic in this world.
However, Allen didn't make a complete conclusion. Maybe it was his magic riot that caused his "magic power"?I didn't refer to the object of comparison, so I can only think that the teaching materials of the wizarding world are like this. Maybe when it comes to Hogwarts to teach face-to-face, maybe this will be taught?
Although he had a reason to comfort himself, Alan couldn't sleep anyway, so he found the magic history books he had collected, trying to find out the secrets of magic, but after reading it carefully in the middle of the night, he only read through the cracks in the words. When it comes out, the word "ideal" is written all over the book.
This made Allen, who has been educated in materialism for more than 20 years, a little at a loss, so Allen has always wanted to find the existence of magic power.In his view, magic power is the most basic form of energy to release "magic" just like electricity. With something similar to magic power, the logic of action of extraordinary power in this world can form a closed loop.
Another reason why Allen is so entangled with this issue is that he discovered through textbooks that the magic of this world, although most of the time is like treating guests to dinner, like doing articles, like painting and embroidery, can be elegant, calm, gentle, and gentle. , but if something goes wrong, the magic is violent, and there will be various strange effects waiting for you, ranging from injury to death.
Perhaps most 11-year-old children will ignore the third part of each chapter of the magic book, but as a soul with mature experience, Allen has read this part many times, because he suffered the most trauma in his previous life. It's just that I cut my hand while chopping vegetables, but I don't want to get hurt or even die in this world due to the wrong release of magic.
That's why Allen wanted to figure out the underlying principles of magic.
Since the original book and the movie didn't spend much time writing about the principles and mechanisms of magic, this book assumes that Hogwarts only learns the use of magic, not the theory.
