Hogwarts starts with stealing power.
Chapter 690 The Glasses Made by the Great Alchemist
Unlike the other young wizards who found the alchemical glasses novel, Lin Xia adopted a critical attitude towards them from the very beginning.
She has experience in alchemy and even built a robot herself, which is currently kept on her family's estate.
Although her alchemy skills are not advanced, she can easily reach the intermediate level.
Because of her background in alchemy, she knew all too well how difficult it was to incorporate so many advanced techniques into a small pair of glasses.
Without a doubt, this is something only Nick Lemaître's team could have produced.
Especially for those who were in the first round of beta testing, the glasses they wore might have been personally designed by Nicolas Lemaître.
While other young wizards followed the guidance in their glasses to choose their grade and subject, Lin Xia remained focused on observing the main interface.
She guessed that the glasses used magic related to neural interaction, and in her senses, the world presented before her did not feel illusory or empty.
What's most outrageous is the lack of any sense of boundaries or borders.
The area in front of her was very clear, but the only drawback was that her perspective couldn't follow her gaze.
Lin Xia tried to move her body forward a few steps, but the scene did not change.
She tried to change her perspective using her thinking, but nothing changed.
Therefore, when wearing these glasses, the view can only be provided by the glasses themselves, offering a fixed perspective.
Even so, Lin Xia nodded in approval of the interface design.
To achieve this level of achievement without it feeling unreal is already quite remarkable.
To be honest, this one hurdle alone might be enough to stump all intermediate alchemists; only advanced alchemists can perfectly solve this problem.
As for her idea of a main interface that could change and move forward according to the wizard's will or thoughts, giving the wizard a sense of realism in exploring the surroundings, perhaps only the legendary great alchemist, Nicolas Flamel, could achieve this.
However, achieving this would require even rarer materials and would not be feasible for widespread adoption, so there's no need to push it to the extreme.
After exploring the main interface to a certain extent, Lin Xia entered the system guide and began to select the grade and the subject she wanted to test.
The main interface does not explicitly require you to select a grade level.
However, once students have their own identification numbers and the school enters the information one by one, it will probably proactively match the students with their grade level and the weak subjects that urgently need improvement.
Generally, you can only move on to the next grade level after you have completed the current subject and ensured that you have a solid foundation.
They are now entering as professors, and no restrictions are imposed on them.
So Lin Xia only thought for a moment before choosing the seventh-grade Transformation skill.
With her current skill in Transfiguration, seventh-grade Transfiguration poses no challenge to her.
However, because she had a better grasp of Transfiguration, she could explore from a more positive perspective whether the professor had designed the seventh-grade Transfiguration program more reasonably.
Moreover, in her mind, it is very simple to design basic knowledge in a way that is easy to understand, but it is very difficult to design intermediate and advanced knowledge that everyone can understand.
If the seventh-grade transfiguration subject can be taught to students in a relatively simple and easy way, then the knowledge challenge game is a successful design.
Soon, Lin Xia entered the first stage of knowledge guidance, following the instructions to begin introducing the Transfiguration technique.
While drawing upon the power within her body, Lin Xia discovered another amazing design.
The glasses perfectly simulate the flow of magic within her!
But it is merely magic; it cannot recognize other powers.
Therefore, the power she used inside was completely at the limit of her own magic.
But Lin Xia also knew that the glasses could not endlessly identify all the magic within a wizard's body.
She is currently on the verge of advancing to the rank of advanced wizard, but has not yet comprehended the laws and power of the wizarding world, so she has not been promoted to advanced wizard.
According to Dean Sprout, once she becomes a high-ranking wizard, she will undergo a baptism in the wizarding world.
After the baptism, her magical power will increase again, and she will also be able to master a portion of the power of the rules.
Lin Xia guessed that the magic power within a high-level wizard's body should be the limit that this pair of alchemical glasses could simulate.
It cannot simulate a more complete set of rules and power.
After all, items that fall under the rules are too magical and have very limited availability.
Another point is that the magic power of high-level wizards also has a range. At least a wizard of Dumbledore's level would probably not be able to fully simulate the magic power within him.
But that's alright. Lin Xia is quite satisfied with the magic that the alchemical glasses can simulate at this stage; they can simulate all the magic within her body.
She can later use the alchemical glasses to know the level of magic power within her body and the power of spells cast with pure magic power.
This would allow her to more perfectly mimic the power a high-level wizard should possess.
Once she knows the power possessed at that level, perhaps she won't need to pretend all the time and can appropriately display some of her strength.
The test flew by, and soon the two-hour test period was over.
Professor McGonagall, standing at the forefront, waved her wand, and the next second, the alchemy glasses worn by the young wizard trembled slightly.
At the same time, the world in the little wizard's eyes also began to shake.
Lin Xia captured a scene where cracks and white spots appeared in the edge area.
The next second, she began to feel dizzy. Although she felt nothing in her body, she knew that this level of dizziness would make an ordinary junior wizard feel unwell.
If I'm not mistaken, the dizziness at the end will be more intense than the dizziness at the beginning, meaning it will be more uncomfortable than when you first enter.
Fortunately, the discomfort only lasted for three seconds.
When Lin Xia focused her consciousness on her body, she felt a sense of grounded security.
She opened her eyes, looked around, and found herself back in the real world.
Everything observed through the alchemical glasses was real. Lin Xia took off the glasses and gently stroked the transparent lenses and frames.
Soon, she touched a small, raised switch on the inner edge of the lens handle; it felt very soft to the touch.
Lin Xia seemed to be thinking of something, and suddenly reached out and gently touched her forehead, feeling a slight pressure mark on her temple.
Because she was constantly casting extrasensory spells, her five senses were more acute than those of ordinary people.
As she touched the indentation, she also felt several tiny holes, smaller than a strand of hair!
Lin Xia raised an eyebrow; she now understood how the alchemy glasses enabled the conversion between virtual and reality.
Perhaps it was the tiny bumps on both sides of the mirror handle that, after touching the wizard's temples, extended some small substance that pierced the nerves in his forehead, temporarily controlling his vision.
This operation is actually a bit dangerous; the wizard must completely trust the alchemy glasses.
Young wizards are easier to fool, and their senses aren't as sharp, but with some adult wizards, this step might be the hardest.
Lin Xia thought of Professor Snape.
Given Snape's personality, he would probably never allow the Alchemist's Glasses to insert some unknown substance into his nerves.
A moment later, Professor McGonagall's stern voice came from the front, instructing the young wizards to write down their usage reports, experiences, and opinions on the advantages and disadvantages of the glasses.
Harry and Ron stood on either side of Lin Xia, with Draco and Hermione in front of her and behind her respectively, while Mikel and Neville stood on the other side.
Ron shook his head and turned to Lin Xia, saying, "It feels great to use. Entering the world brought by the glasses in the early stages is not so uncomfortable. My attention is quickly drawn to the novel scenes, and I wish I could immerse myself in them completely."
The feeling of being detached from it was so dizzying; even now, my head still feels spinning, like I'm top-heavy and unsteady. Professor McGonagall's words seem to float in from afar.
Before Ron could even marvel at how much the glasses exceeded his expectations, he worriedly said, "I've been getting up to run every day recently, and my physical fitness has improved a lot."
For some less active young wizards, given their physical condition, adapting to these glasses would be quite difficult. Getting in is fine, but getting out would be extremely uncomfortable.
Lin Xia asked with great interest, "So, what kind of magic potion do you think I should take to quickly return to normal after detaching from this software?"
Ron replied without hesitation, "A potion for clearing the mind."
Lin Xia smiled and said, "Congratulations, you've found a completely new business path."
Ron was stunned. "What? I found something? I didn't know anything about it?"
Lin Xia said, "If you want to make a little money, you can figure out a set of mind-refreshing gift packs to use with the alchemy glasses right now."
Besides potions, some young wizards prefer to use topical remedies or ointments. You can also compile a list to help them quickly restore their energy.
Oh, by the way, I suggest you pair it with a drink, rename it "Energy Recovery Drink," and add some herbs that help boost alertness. Who knows, you might even create a globally popular functional beverage.
Mikel and Neville had somehow ended up next to Lin Xia and overheard her long-winded talk.
Neville felt excited, while Mikel's eyes held a complex expression.
If it weren't for the fact that Lin Xia's behavior was no different from that of a local wizard, and that he just seemed more talented, he would have thought that Lin Xia was a fellow countryman from the Celestial Empire.
How can there be such a big difference between people?
He had many ideas about the Celestial Empire, but he had no ability to realize them. In fact, some of his ideas were considered crazy and impossible to achieve when he spoke them out.
Lin Xia's many money-making ideas often align with the wizarding world.
If it weren't for Lin Xia later mentioning that energy drinks already existed in the Muggle world—which Lin Xia had only occasionally seen during her Muggle visits—and thinking that the wizarding world could also develop energy drinks, Mikel would have wanted to tell Lin Xia—
"The king of heaven overshadows the tigers of earth!"
While Lin Xia and the others were writing their report, they also overheard the discussions of other young wizards around them, some from lower grades and some from higher grades.
The young wizards found the guided learning materials simple and easy to understand; some of the content was even simpler and clearer than what the professors said.
"There were many knowledge points in the professor's class that I didn't understand, which made me feel confused when I listened to his lectures later on."
But just two hours ago, I went through that course again from the beginning and discovered that the reason I couldn't understand it was because I hadn't memorized many of the details.
Now, after listening to it again and recalling the professor's lectures, I realized I understood more than half of it. This learning software is truly amazing!
The young wizard exclaimed excitedly, "I even think that with this software, I can learn better by myself without attending lectures!"
Some older students were also discussing it, but their opinions were mixed.
"Some knowledge points are described too simply, while others are described too complicatedly. They are not as good as courses taught by professors in person."
"Professors in higher grades only teach small classes, which allows them to tailor their teaching to each student and set a learning pace. However, this learning software uses a general learning approach, which is naturally not as good as small-class elite teaching."
One senior student said, "But I think this software is also very well done. You know, professors have certain requirements for students' qualifications when teaching small-group elite courses."
Students who lack talent won't be able to learn it. Letting them in, but this software allows students of average talent to learn advanced knowledge as well.
It's just that the content wasn't simple where it should have been, and simpled where it shouldn't have been, but regardless, they still learned advanced content, didn't they?
Hermione also spoke with Lin Xia: "I don't think this software is very useful for students like us who learn quickly, but it's very useful for wizards with mediocre aptitude."
Guided by this software, a large number of students should be able to learn, through diligence, knowledge they wouldn't normally acquire at Hogwarts.
Lin Xia asked, "So, do you think this software is good?"
Hermione looked at her intently: "Okay, I think it's very good. As the founder of the knowledge puzzle game, I'm only now realizing how broad your thinking is. In this respect, I am far inferior to you."
Lin Xia smiled faintly, "If I said that when I was making this little game, I never thought that schools would pay attention to it and that it would be popularized across all subjects, would you believe me?"
Hermione shook her head: "That's not important. What's important is that you were the one who started this. It's because of your idea that this software was created."
"Alright, hand in all your completed reports," Professor McGonagall urged.
She was actually fine; she was used to having a serious expression. But the other professors didn't look so good.
Everyone was glaring at them, not letting them slack off.
Writing reports was something Lin Xia was most comfortable with; they finished quickly and handed them to the professor immediately. (End of Chapter)
