Science and magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 24

Kyle, who was no longer interested in the conversation between Dumbledore and Harry, politely bid them farewell, turned around and left the classroom decisively.

On the way here, Harry had already introduced to Kyle the origin of the Invisibility Cloak—a relic of his father, which was sent to Harry as a Christmas present by an unnamed person.

You see, what a coincidence, it happened that the headmaster put the Mirror of Erised in the school, it happened that Harry received his father's relic of the Invisibility Cloak, and it happened that the headmaster stood by and watched Harry indulge in false illusions.If it wasn't for the fact that Kyle had sent a signal to Snape, I don't know how long Harry would be tested.

Kyle, who was not interested in the savior development game, didn't contact Harry again during the whole holiday, and just carried out his own research step by step.The income from the toy puppet makes Kyle’s research temporarily free from the restrictions of Garen. The big silver dog provides enough theoretical support and helps Kyle advance the progress bar of Goldfinger. Almost every day Kyle will have a new one. reward.

In this way, Kyle was immersed in research, and lived a life of three points and one line in the library, abandoned classrooms, and dormitories. It was not until the platinum-blond Malfoy appeared in the lounge again that he was surprised that the vacation was over. .

The time of a vacation is short, but Kyle still achieved phased results.

Wizards have been studying the optimization and miniaturization of energy storage rooms for thousands of years, but with little success.The reason is that the accuracy of the magic circle drawing is like a mountain blocking countless wizards.

Imagine the difficulty of copying an article on the walls of an entire classroom, and the difficulty of copying the same article on the wall of a model room.But once this problem is solved, the effect of the energy storage room will increase significantly.

But when magic meets technology, many problems are solved.

For the engraving of this kind of miniature pattern, the Muggle world has already been at the forefront of the wizarding world.The magic world still uses the traditional method. All rune masters and alchemy masters know that the more runes per unit area, the stronger the effect of the magic circle, but the accuracy that the eyes can distinguish and the stability of magic power have surpassed what humans can achieve. The limit is limited.

The Muggle world has already broken through the limits of human beings. The lithography machine combined with the etching machine has reached the accuracy of hundreds of nanometers even in the 90s, not to mention the 21st century, it has reached a few nanometers. .

Kyle's goal is to make a portable energy storage core that can be carried around, and ensure that the effect of the energy storage core does not drop too much.

The current Kyle's preliminary idea is to design a sufficiently powerful magic circle regardless of the difficulty of engraving, and then use the industrial methods of the Muggle world to engrave the magic circle on the magic circle made of demon-hating metal as the main material. Hollow out the part of the magic circle on the board.When using it, put the mold on the place where the magic circle needs to be engraved, and the mental power will flow in the pattern engraved on the mold, leaving a complete magic circle in the end.

The benefits of this are obvious. The painter no longer needs to consider the structure of the magic circle when drawing, and can just draw along the graphics in the mold wholeheartedly.At the same time, the hollowed-out channel made of demon-hating metal can bind the magic power in the channel without causing the magic power to escape.

The existence of the hollow channel not only solves the problem of accuracy, but also greatly reduces the requirement for the ability to manipulate magic power, and the change of direction solves the problem of magic power stability.

This is like the comparison between a slide and ice skating. A slide can only slide down on a specific track, not free enough but safe enough and stable; when skating, you are unrestrained and can gallop anywhere on the ice, but you want to go along the ice. The specific trajectory moves, but the difficulty suddenly rises.

The problem of thinking is solved, and the rest is to design a sufficiently powerful magic circle.Because as the size of the magic circle shrinks, the magic materials used in the production process will inevitably decrease.At the same time, in the process of use, the too fine rune channel will also limit the maximum passable strength of the magic power to a lower level, which requires the newly designed magic array to exert a stronger effect with lower configuration .

At the same time, it is also necessary to improve the paint that depicts the magic circle, so that its magic power is more conductive, and it can also reduce the impact of some rune passages that are too thin.

Throughout the Christmas holiday, Kyle spent his time altering the magic circle.

Thanks to wizards' continuous research on energy storage rooms for thousands of years, Kyle has a lot of information that can be used as a reference.The part that Kyle values ​​the most is not the examples that have been successfully used, but the various wonderful designs created by wizards for thousands of years.Because among these schemes that proved to be unfeasible, there are many cases that were abandoned due to the difficulty of drawing.

These plans that were once denied because they were too unrealistic were randomly recorded in essays or autobiography and were not taken seriously, but Kyle regarded them as treasures.

The brain holes developed by wizards over the years are enough for Kyle to design a powerful enough magic circle.

Compared with the huge workload of the magic circle, a Christmas holiday seemed too short, so that on the first day of school, Kyle ran to the library after class in the eyes of his classmates looking at perverts.

The turmoil of the outside world did not bother Kyle, but sometimes fate is so strange. Before the first Quidditch match after Christmas, Kyle actually saw Harry and his two little friends in the library, and here Intersect with the main plot of the story.

Hermione Granger, the little girl Kyle often sees in the library, is an out-and-out academic master.A first-year freshman who can endure loneliness and spend time in the library reading a large volume of magic books is enough to show her excellence, while the other two little devils are rare visitors to the library.

The three little devils gathered together, discussing something in a low voice, and looked at Mrs. Pince nervously from time to time, obviously knowing that speaking in the library would not please Mrs. Pince.

Through the occasional words of several people, it was obvious that the little girl was accusing the two of not working hard. This small circle seemed to be looking for some information, but they couldn't find it after working hard for a long time.

It seems that the little girl arranged for Harry and Little Red to spend the Christmas holidays in the library looking for information. She didn't want the two of them to play wizard chess, and she had long forgotten the little girl's arrangement.

"What's the use of playing Wizard Chess? Can playing Wizard Chess improve your grades? Can playing Wizard Chess help you avoid danger? Can playing Wizard Chess help us solve problems?" You don't care about anything." As she spoke, the little girl's voice was filled with tears.

Harry and Little Red all lowered their heads and said nothing, and Little Red still had a dissatisfied expression on his face.

To be honest, there is a sense of déjà vu of an old mother teaching her son.
