Chapter 197 Ancient and Modern

Hermione seemed to remember something, "Professor, did you use this magic text in last year's open class?"

"No, what is demonstrated in the open class is real ancient magic, but it is based on this magic text as the core." Felix said.

He looked at the time and said gently: "Today is almost over. As for how to discover the power of a single magical text, I will arrange this part of the content tomorrow. You can try it yourself after you go back. There is no danger, but it may cause some trouble for you."

“Hard?”

Felix curled the corner of his mouth: "If I remember correctly, the effect of a magic text I taught you will be very interesting. I wonder if you can find it?"

Hermione had some resentment in her heart, and the professor's evil taste appeared again...

At this point, Hermione almost understood the logic of the entire practical ancient magic literature system. If she compared it, she thought of the radio she had dismantled by herself.

Magic text is the basis of everything, and its status is equivalent to electronic parts in the radio;

But whether it is a single magic text or electronic parts, they are relatively independent and can show their own characteristics, such as the heating of resistors, the lighting of small light bulbs, and the magic text that the professor shows that symbolizes light.

These characteristics are essentially not divided into good or bad, but after adding people's subjective judgment, they are different: the luminous characteristics are obviously more useful than the heating characteristics...

The magic text circuit corresponds to the circuit in the radio. At this time, the magic text has formed a loop through combination, which has specific magic powers, such as the burst magic text circuit demonstrated by the professor a long time ago.

She still remembers that Professor Happ's description of it was "very unstable", which shows that a single magical circuit is also difficult to be used stably.

Only when multiple magical script circuits cooperate with each other can a complete magical script creation be created, just like her beaded bag.

As for ancient magic, she didn't have much information, so she thought it was the same.

Hermione felt that it would be easy to understand after such an analogy. She told the professor what she thought and looked at him with anticipation, "What do you think?"

Felix cast a consent look, "It's very vivid, Miss Granger. For you now, you can understand it in this way."

The little witch nodded. She had come into contact with too much new knowledge today and needed to re-clutter after she went back.

...

When Hermione left and Felix sat on the sofa, the harvest tonight gave him a deeper thought about the similarities and differences between ancient magic and simplified magic.

His previous idea was that ancient magic was powerful but difficult to control; while simplified magic was not outstanding, but it was completely sufficient. Its biggest advantage was that it was simple and easy to learn, and the probability of losing control was lower.

But in fact, it is almost inevitable to simplify magic and replace ancient magic.

Simplified magic can basically be regarded as a collection of spells + casting actions + magic mobilization.

'Spell' represents the power of the mind. After proficiency, it can be omitted, that is, silent casting;

The latter two are confusing the casting action and the magic mobilization in most cases.

This is because under the simplified magic system, spell casting actions and magic mobilization are bound one by one. A spell casting action corresponds to a way of magic mobilization, which is the essence of the entire simplified magic system.

The benefits of this approach are amazing:

Wizards do not have to spend a lot of time learning how to mobilize and control their magic. This part of the knowledge is naturally integrated into the Hogwarts teaching system.

Theoretically, as long as you learn the regular casting movements, you are qualified to master most of the spells under the same system.

The reason why not all spells is that some unpopular spell casting actions have been deleted from the existing textbooks of Hogwarts, which means that the little wizards cannot master the magic power mobilization behind these spell casting actions.

However, if the professor wants to teach extra, he can spend more time on the new casting movement when explaining the spell. At most, the little wizard will find that the spell is a bit difficult and not very easy to handle.

It is precisely because the spell casting action and magic mobilization are very closely combined that many young wizards only know the former and have no idea about the latter, but this does not affect their use of magic at all.

An extreme example is:

Some wizards with outstanding talents can master the corresponding magic by just seeing others cast spells once.

What's more convenient is that when you are familiar with the spell, the casting action can also be omitted, and everything seems to return to the magic mobilization itself.

However, most wizards did not see this process clearly from beginning to end.

If you are not satisfied with the school's teaching content, Hogwarts' library also has a large amount of information for the young wizard to refer to and learn in depth, provided that you have to choose the right book.

The above thoughts can be regarded as the advantages of simplifying magic, easy to learn, self-organized, and retain the possibility of further improvement.

This is much superior to ancient magic.

You should know that ancient wizards did not even have standard unified spell casting actions. Every time they learned ancient magic, it meant an adventure. They naturally tended to the same type of magic to reduce the risk of learning new magic.

In addition, ancient wizards followed the master-apprentice teaching system, and communication was not as convenient as it is now, which also led to their serious bias in nature. Many wizards only mastered a few flame magic in their lifetime.

According to Felix's speculation, only when he mastered a large number of practical characteristics of ancient magic texts and the combination methods of magic texts could he truly exert the power of ancient magic.

Even with a few flame magic, he can spread sparks.

Simplified magic is not all an advantage

This practice has resulted in an inevitable result: for today's wizards, the older the magic, the more difficult it is to master.

This is because some ancient magic inherited the ancient wizards' understanding of magic, but this understanding seems out of place under the current magic system.

For example, the Guardian Spell focuses more on the use of spiritual power.

Moreover, the method of mobilizing magic is not within the basic casting actions taught by Hogwarts. This means that you have to learn several, or even more than a dozen methods of mobilizing magic and controlling magic, which almost stumps more than 90% of wizards.

Felix realized this very early and thought of breaking away from the simplified magic framework.

He first read books in the library and learned more ways to mobilize magic and control magic.

He also tried to unearth powerful magic from various ancient classics, master and control them.

In fact, this is also the choice of many wizards to improve their control over magic and their understanding of magic in their pursuit of powerful magic.

Later, Felix targeted the practicality of ancient magic texts that he believed were directed to the essence of magic, and developed all the way to this day.

But now it seems that magic text is the essence of magic?

In just one year, he had seen Slytherin's blood magic, Ravenclaw's memory magic, and Dumbledore's vaguely undisclosed transformation technique.

Everyone is on the right path, although Felix has no doubt that the path he has chosen has the greatest potential.

If he now judges that there is only one essence of magic, that is, the magic wizard is born with magic power.
