Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 428 The Last Piece of the Puzzle

Divination is originally used to exchange information, and the price to be paid for divination of "information about the past" is only a little bit of magic power. As long as you don't try to divination the future desperately, this is an invincible and easy-to-use magic.

So the question is, when using divination, where does the [information] exchanged come from?

Connor grasped this "brilliant point", so he put forward a "conjecture" - wizards can build an "Internet" belonging to wizards by exchanging information with the world itself.

Turning the world itself into the "storage" of the wizard's magic computer, a "cloud disk" with unlimited capacity, is Connor's real purpose.

To achieve this goal, what is needed is an "automatic divination machine", which is the "magic computer" that Connor asked Professor Victor to research, which can quickly exchange information with the world.

This is a bold plan. Once it succeeds, it will benefit endlessly. According to Connor's words - "This is the best opportunity for wizards to overtake Muggles and achieve a leap in the era."

Dumbledore also had to be moved by it, and in the end he could only turn a blind eye to Connor's abuse of the school's professors. If it wasn't because of the shortage of teachers in the school, he would have wanted Professor Victor to devote himself wholeheartedly. Do the research, not the class.

It wasn't until this time that Dumbledore seriously thought about recruiting more substitute professors. Maybe it was really a waste of talents to let some professors do the work of enlightening magic?
"Connor, this idea of ​​yours is very interesting, very interesting." Dumbledore paced back and forth in the office, half-moon glasses reflecting strange light under the candlelight
"But... I didn't mean to offend Settima. I'm just discussing the facts. I mean... Can a person who only relies on Settima really be able to complete this job smoothly? Of course, Settima has a lot of experience in arithmetic divination. In-depth research, I never doubt her ability, I mean, if I add a few more helpers to her, will the research progress be accelerated?"

He was in a hurry, he was in a hurry, even the old Dumbledore, after clearly understanding the plan, couldn't help being overly excited. Professor Victor only saw the powerful capabilities of the magic computer, and Dumbledore It is to see the "future" brought by the magic computer to the wizarding world. This invention may be more meaningful than killing a few Voldemorts.

Connor smiled slightly, sighed comfortably, and said leisurely: "Professor, you are right, of course I will not put all such a heavy burden on the shoulders of Professor Victor alone, didn't I just say ? This is only the first part of the plan”

"Oh?" Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, returned to his seat and sat down, looking at Connor with admiration and relief in his eyes, "Yes, you have always considered things carefully, tell me, your plan What's the second part of the book?"

Connor put down his teacup, his face straightened, and the most important part of tonight's conversation finally came.

"Professor Dumbledore, even if we successfully develop a magic computer capable of high-speed divination calculations, we still have to face a very serious problem"

"Tell me more."

"Professor Dumbledore, the magic net I want to build is to be promoted so that everyone in the wizarding world can use it. It is not something for self-entertainment. You should understand this, right?"

"Indeed, such a great invention only makes sense if it can be used by all wizards."

"But—" Connor raised a finger and said slowly:
"The amount of information stored in this world itself is too much and too complicated. Neither my magic painting nor any wizard can manage such complicated information in a unified way. But if you give up this [management right] ], the established magic net will become disorganized, and it cannot be used with confidence at all.”

Once the magic net is built, in a sense, this world will have no secrets for wizards. If no matter what you want to know, as long as you don't use magic to prevent it, you can get it through "divination" through the magic net. But it's too scary, just from the perspective of protecting privacy, such magic nets are not allowed to exist.

This time, the voyeur Dumbledore understood Connor's meaning in an instant. He stroked his beard and said, "You mean this magic network still needs an administrator, right? Rules, you must be as fully aware of the information as possible, you mean that, right?"

Connor nodded: "That's right, we also need a central processor that can handle such a huge amount of information. If we can control the flow of information from the source of information, we can use this central processor to serve the Magic Web. Set rules, if not, this magic net will be undefended to all wizards, what the magic net will be used for will not be controlled, it will become the sharpest double-edged sword”

Connor made a gesture with his hands in the air, indicating that this is "information from the world", and then pointed to Facebook on the desktop, indicating that it is a "magic computer", and then he clenched his fists between the two:
"We must ensure that wizards cannot escape our control when using magic computers to interact with the magic net. This is the prerequisite for building the magic net. If this problem is not solved, there will be no way to build the magic net."

Dumbledore's hand touching his beard stopped in mid-air, and his brows were tightly frowned: "Indeed, information itself is a powerful force, we should never let this power go, at least, we must not let this magic net be destroyed by evil-minded hackers." used by wizards"

Dumbledore rubbed his temples with some headaches, "Connor, this problem is more troublesome than making a magic computer. I was reminded by you that even if we can develop a magic computer, we can only use it ourselves. Don't worry about promoting it, a magic net that cannot be supervised is Pandora's box, if it is used by criminals, it will cause big problems."

Then Dumbledore noticed the smile on the corner of Connor's mouth, and he was slightly taken aback: "What? Have you figured out a way, Connor? Wait, let me think about it, it is almost impossible to control the flow of information at the source, so you are Do you want to set rules on the user side to monitor information?"

"As expected of Professor Dumbledore, he can think of this all at once."

Dumbledore who was praised was not happy, because the smirk on the corner of Connor's mouth never stopped. Dumbledore was familiar with this kind of smile. When he was young, he had the same kind of smile when he taught those stupid classmates magic. Sure enough, He heard Connor say the second half of the sentence:
"...but not entirely true, it is actually possible to control all the information at the source, and I am very sure of it!"

Dumbledore pushed his sliding eyes: "How?"

Connor smiled: "Of course, to do this, you need Professor Dumbledore's help."

"Say."

Connor took out his old Facebook, and looked at Dumbledore with piercing eyes: "Professor, on my Facebook, there is a very special contact, a special contact that only the two of us know about." people."

Dumbledore frowned first, then his pupils shrank suddenly, and he raised his head suddenly: "You mean that lady?!"

Connor snapped his fingers: "That's right, it's unrealistic to want to completely control all the information. It's not something that humans can do at all, but if it's not human, can it be done?"

"If everything Helena told us is true, the all-knowing and omnipotent being who has lost her feelings but retained a powerful soul, and has endless life-Ms. Ravenclaw, is the last to complete my magic net project A piece of the puzzle!"

"Professor Dumbledore, as long as we can convince this lady to become our [central processing unit], then we will be able to build a magical network belonging to our wizards within days!"
