Hogwarts: This Wizard Is Not Scientific

"Of course!"

Andy's tone was a little irritable, "No one wants to be like a marionette, with every move controlled by others!"

"If there really is destiny in this world, then Voldemort is innocent! Because the one who is truly guilty is the person who arranged Voldemort's destiny."

"He was the one who made Voldemort do those bad things!"

Dumbledore fell silent upon hearing this.

Andy's words may sound a bit unreasonable, but if you look carefully, they may not be unreasonable.

If Voldemort was just a marionette of fate, was he guilty?

If someone kills someone with a knife, people will only think that the person who took the knife is guilty, but not the knife.

If fate really exists, then Voldemort is the knife in the hand of fate. It was fate that arranged for him to become the Dark Lord, and it was destiny that arranged for him to do those bad things, and he couldn't help it.

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked: "If I die because of that ring, Mr. Collins... do you think you changed your fate, or did fate control you?"

Andy couldn't answer this question and could only choose to remain silent.

Dumbledore continued: "Collins, do you know why I like Gryffindor?"

Chapter 395 The ability to divine and predict destiny

Chapter 395 Divination - the ability to spy on destiny

Andy: "..."

"Professor, it seems a bit inappropriate to be so aboveboard, right? You are the principal of Hogwarts!" Andy complained speechlessly.

Dumbledore said slowly: "The more we know, the more unknown things there are. Those unknowns are full of dangers and also full of temptations."

"I can't answer you for sure, because I don't know whether fate exists."

"But I have the courage to face this!"

"Whether it's fate or death, I can face them calmly and wait quietly for their arrival. Then... I will give my response."

Andy glanced at Dumbledore and retorted: "Professor, this is not a calm face, let alone the so-called courage. You are showing off!"

"In the face of unknown and irresistible forces, your calmness seems to be just because you are powerless."

Dumbledore did not refute Andy's words. He just said quietly: "Collins, there are too many things in this world that we can't do anything about. Sometimes, calm acceptance also requires a little courage."

If he were facing someone else at this moment, Andy would definitely say: It's not enough to say nothing. Then tell him to get out immediately!

But it was Dumbledore who said these words.

So Andy started thinking.

Indeed, there are too many things in this world that we can't do anything about, and Andy is not the kind of person who says, "I can't control my fate." Whether in his past life or this life, Andy can actually accept his fate calmly.

Time travel and systems are themselves arranged by fate.

It's just that destiny cannot be dwelled on.

The more I think about it, the more frightening it becomes.

The main reason why Andy feels unwilling is because Andy has mastered the power of magic.

As the saying goes, armed with sharp weapons, murderous intentions arise!

Having power and having no power have different mentality and behavior when facing difficulties.

Ordinary people are afraid of ghosts, but Taoist priests who can catch ghosts will only make the ghosts fly away.

"I said so many unwilling things, but when I think about it carefully, I really can't do anything."

Andy sighed, spread his hands and said: "Maybe you are right, professor. It does take a little courage to face it calmly when you are unable to resist, and to accept fate and death calmly."

Dumbledore said slowly: "So I have always been reluctant to talk about fate, but sometimes, we also need to predict some things."

"Tell me something you don't know."

"Grindelwald is also a master of prophecy, and his prophecies are very accurate. But in an operation against him, we used his prophecies to defeat him."

Andy raised his eyebrows.

Prophecy is usually ambiguous, and sometimes it does affect people's judgment.

"Professor, I want to ask you another question."

Andy asked for advice: "If I make a prophecy, or Professor Trelawney makes a prophecy... the content of this prophecy is: Harry will be killed by Voldemort!"

"...what would you do?"

Dumbledore looked at Andy with calm eyes. He thought carefully and replied: "There are many ways. For example, the Elder Wand will not kill its owner, or use the magic left by Lily. You know, Voldemort has always wanted to use Harry's blood to resurrect him."

"If it was just the Killing Curse, there are plenty of ancient magics that could have prevented Harry's death."

"Sometimes, suspended animation is also a kind of death."

Andy understood.

Dumbledore had said before that he would face fate and death calmly, wait quietly for their arrival, and then... he would give his own response.

"Your wisdom is admirable!" Andy said.

"so……"

Andy tentatively asked, "So-called destiny, perhaps it's just a certain node that is bound to happen?"

"If Voldemort predicted that Professor Snape would join the Death Eaters' camp, then... Professor Snape could be a real Death Eater, but he could also be our undercover?"

Dumbledore blinked, "It's an interesting point. Maybe you can try it yourself."

Andy: "..."

Old Bee started pretending to be crazy and acting stupid again!

"It seems our conversation can only end here." Dumbledore said suddenly.

Snapped!

With a soft sound, Fudge appeared at the door of the Burrow with two Aurors.

"Dumbledore, I really hope you're kidding."

Fudge's expression looked a little crazy, and he said impatiently: "It's bad enough for me now. There are many people questioning the ability of the Ministry of Magic. I don't expect you to help me, but I don't want to hear some nonsense. Nonsense.”

Dumbledore said calmly: "We have captured Peter Pettigrew. He has confessed something. I hope you can listen to it."

"It is also the responsibility of the Ministry of Magic to uphold the fairness of the law!"

Fudge became even more irritated when he heard this, "Of course I know this, I don't need you to remind me. Where is Peter Pettigrew?"

"In the house!" said Dumbledore.

Andy accidentally got involved in the quarrel with the Minister of Magic. After everyone entered the house, Andy found a blind spot in his field of vision and used Apparition to return to the door of his house.

I have to say that Andy felt a lot better after talking to Dumbledore.

If Andy still has some ideas when it comes to fighting against death. Then there is really nothing Andy can do about fate...

Like time, fate is a forbidden force.

Speak louder!

Will the birth and destruction of the universe be an arrangement of fate?

Pangu created the world and transformed into all things... Was this his own choice or a destined outcome?

Andy can't answer this question!

So... faced with such vast power, what else can Andy do besides lying flat?

Is my destiny up to me and not God?

Not to mention the second thing in this slogan, this sentence itself is also a thing that is destined to be impossible.

The demon boy Nezha once shouted this slogan.

But for Andy, Nezha is just a character living in a two-dimensional world, and his story and life are already doomed facts.

"so……"

Andy looked up at the sky. Are the lives in the four-dimensional world also watching our story?

After witnessing the mystery and greatness of fate, Andy became more interested in divination - this is the ability to spy on fate!

Just like Dumbledore said.

If we know in advance that something is destined to happen in the future, then we can take advantage of it.

Regardless of whether fate can be changed or not, the mere act of spying on fate is enough to attract Andy.

And the method proposed by Dumbledore is not a bad idea.

Thinking about it this way, fate doesn't seem so mysterious anymore.

"Sure enough... as long as the defense can be broken, this BOSS can be defeated!"

Chapter 396 It’s time to challenge authority

After eating Sirius' melon, Andy didn't care much about what happened next.

Anyway, with Dumbledore here, Peter Pettigrew has been arrested, and the old case from twelve years ago will one day be vindicated.

Andy plans to use the last bit of time during the summer vacation to take care of his own affairs.

The first step is to buy third grade textbooks.

After school starts, Andy plans to sign up for all elective courses and apply for a time-turner. If you include the required courses, Andy needs to purchase textbooks for twelve entire courses.

Andy also took a special look at the Defense Against the Dark Arts textbook.

Hmm...the textbook this time is normal.

Andy just hopes that the professor this time can be a little more normal. It doesn't require him to have advanced knowledge, as long as he can teach normally.

Andy wanted nothing more.

After all... it's quite tiring to send away a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor every year.

Mainly because I’m tired!

In addition to buying textbooks, Andy also needs to order several new sets of wizard robes, and supplies such as cauldrons also need to be replaced with new ones.

Andy made an appointment with Hermione and spent a day handling everything.

It is worth mentioning that Hermione bought an orange cat.

It was an orange cat named Crookshanks.

It has a fat body, a flat face, and a long tail like a bottle brush, with every hair exploding.

All in all, they are... an ugly bunch!

The point is, Hermione can't be too precious. She always held the fat orange cat and muttered: Poor Crookshanks, no one has been willing to buy it.

Andy was so angry that he couldn't even eat dinner.

Ever since he learned the Animagus, Andy has had a special and awkward feeling for creatures like orange cats.

But Andy's awkward mood only lasted for just one day.

Because Andy needs to prepare for the magical transformation.

This time, Andy built his laboratory in the mountains near Hogsmeade.

It was a cave, and the materials were all ready-made. Andy only needed to use magic to transform the overall structure of the cave, and the entire project was completed.

There's still some Polyjuice Potion left.

Andy used Polyjuice Potion to transform into different identities and purchased all the potion ingredients from Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley.

Three days before the start of school, Andy made all the preparations for the magical transformation.

Now that everything is ready, there is only one experimental object left. When the resurrection stone is in place, Andy can officially start the experiment of black magic transformation - that is the magic transformation that steals the power of death.

In order to save time and cost, Andy plans to put his own magic transformation on the agenda.

In Andy's plan, the experiment on dark magic transformation will be carried out after the school term begins - after all, the Resurrection Stone is still in Snape's hands at the moment, and he will not be able to return it to Andy until the school term begins.
