Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Murphy handed over the smelting technology of fairy metal to the Magic Research Institute.

They are currently studying a problem that has troubled the institute for a long time: the compatibility of magic and technology products.

As we all know, an overly active demon-rich environment will cause sophisticated technological creations to fail. Murphy had already felt this when he was at Hogwarts, and this would be a huge obstacle to Murphy's combination of science and demons.

If science and magic are in conflict with each other in nature, then talking about combining science and magic is nonsense.

But fortunately, after initial research, scientists have ruled out the possibility that the two are "conceptual conflicts." The failure of technology in a magic-rich environment is most likely caused by the interference of magic power fluctuations on precision electronic equipment.

In this regard, Haldane believes that the essence of this conflict should be that the "expansion of possibilities" of magic makes electronic equipment unstable. Designs that should not leak electricity can now leak electricity, and components that should be energized can become leaky. It becomes insulation, etc., and the more sophisticated the electronic equipment is, the easier it is for this kind of disturbance to occur.

For example, after more than a year of research and development on chips, the minimum process of the chips produced by Umbrella Company has reached 0.1 micron. A single field transistor is so small that it can only be seen with a microscope. Changing the switching state of such a small circuit is far more difficult. Less than changing the switching state of an ordinary macro circuit.

This is the inevitable result under the "magic probabilistic payment hypothesis".

Scientists have proposed two plans on how to keep precision technology products, such as chips, running stably in a magical environment.

The first is the magic isolation solution. These scientists believe that a magic isolation material can be designed, just like the anti-electromagnetic interference design, to isolate the disturbance of magic.

The second is the magic alternative. These scientists very radically believe that the isolation of magic power runs counter to the goal of integrating science and magic. Since magic power can have an impact on electricity, they can simply do the opposite and directly use magic power to directly replace the role of electricity to drive technological creations.

In fact, the feasibility of this method is not small. They have already discovered that many technological creations can operate through magic. However, creations driven by magic often produce some unexpected changes, such as making cars become It can drive automatically, add seat ejection and other strange functions - even if the designer does not want this function.

How to control the magic power so that it works according to the designer's intention is the difficulty of this plan.

To do this, they're trying to control magic using enchantment rituals developed by the Weasley twins, and Goblin Metal looks like it would fit right in with that route.

The Magic Research Institute has accumulated a lot of experience in magic research. The second week after Murphy sent the smelting plan for fairy metal, they completed the analysis of the technical route.

"Fairy metals are mainly divided into three categories." Haldane showed Murphy several metal ingots.

"Copper forged by magic is called orichalcum, silver forged by magic is called mithril, and gold forged by magic is called fine gold. These have all appeared in ancient legends, and some of them are not fairies. Forged, but in fact they are all the same material as fairy metal.”

"The reason why the fairy gold coins we used have good enchanting properties is that the base material is made of fine gold."

"However, we have discovered through research that this magic forging method can actually not only act on metals such as copper, silver, and gold. Various metals such as iron, aluminum, and magnesium can also change their properties through magic forging, and even Some non-metallic substances, such as carbon, silicon, etc., can undergo unique changes under the influence of magic."

"This may be the essence of the magic glow phenomenon produced by gems. We are conducting in-depth research on this..."

"Back to fairy metal, its manufacturing method is actually very simple. It is essentially smelting and doping the metal with magic power." Haldane explained, "It is very similar to the electric furnace steelmaking in the metallurgical industry. Through the extremely fast-changing magic field , heating and melting the metal, the metal forged with different magic properties will cause the metal to form a specific unit cell, and the passage of magic power with different properties and frequencies will produce very large changes."

"This metal has a very high affinity for magic and can be easily attached with magic of specific properties."

"Being able to add magic is nothing, but being able to add magic with specific attributes is very useful. Combining enchanting rituals and magic blocking materials can create a magic that only achieves a specific magic effect and is not susceptible to interference from other magic powers. Magic line.”

Murphy nodded. This is why he attaches great importance to fairy metal. "Can I design a magic chip with this?"

The top design of precision manufacturing is naturally the chip. The ultimate goal of the magic alternative is to replace the precision product of the electric drive chip with magic power.

"Theoretically it is possible, but our research on magic doped materials has just begun. Whether we can find suitable materials will require a lot of experiments."

Murphy nodded, "Just say whatever you need."

Now with Gringotts, Murphy's Muggle wealth and wizarding wealth have been completely connected. Apart from the need to take care of the fragile economy of the wizarding world and not be destroyed by himself, there are basically no restrictions. As long as it can be used There is no bottleneck for him when it comes to things that money can accomplish.

"Currently, the biggest problem encountered in metal smelting is actually a stable source of magic power." Haldane said.

"Now when we smelt magic power, we still need manual operations by wizards, and the manual input of magic power has great fluctuations, which makes it difficult for us to precisely control the properties of magic metal."

"In fact, this is one of the reasons why the quality of elf metal varies. The level of elf craftsmen is largely reflected in the control of magic power stability during smelting."

"While magic potions made from the blood of magical creatures or wizards serve as a source of magic power, the magic power is too small, and there is also the problem of magic attenuation, making it difficult to use in large-scale production."

Murphy is also aware of this problem, but the things that are now known to be able to provide magic seem to be biological.

"Maybe...the Philosopher's Stone?"

Murphy thought of a possibility.

Murphy once thought about the ability of the Philosopher's Stone. Behind its miracle of turning stone into gold, it means an extremely powerful energy conversion function. Perhaps the Philosopher's Stone is an extremely huge source of magic power.

Thinking of this, Murphy became very angry with Dumbledore.

Damn it, this old guy is really delaying things.

But fortunately, he has already obtained Nicoléme's alchemy information. Without the magic stone, why can't I make it myself?

Speaking of which, although the pile of information has been sorted out by others, he has not had the time to study it carefully.

Even the hard-earned elixir was not taken yet. Instead, a bottle was handed over to Snape and the institute for testing and research.

At the same time, Snape was still responsible for the research and manufacture of the Philosopher's Stone, and it was not known to what extent his research had advanced.

Maybe it's time to go to Hogwarts and meet the new headmaster.
