Connor's Hogwarts

Butterfly effect means that in a dynamic system, a small change in initial conditions can drive a long-term huge chain reaction of the entire system.

An inconspicuous little action can cause a series of huge reactions. The butterfly effect confirms the complexity of the development of things.

Scientists will attribute the various variables in this series of changes to unpredictable chaotic coincidences, but wizards are different. Wizards will use mysterious power to deduce from a small amount of information the inevitable consequences of things developing to a certain stage.

This mysterious power is called divination.

Although this thing sounds very metaphysical, very idealistic, and very imprecise, no one can deny its role, because the facts are there, and divination can indeed predict the future.

Hogwarts offers divination classes and arithmetic divination classes.

As we all know, various prophecies have always been circulated in the wizarding world. Prophecy is an ability that can only be possessed by special wizards with the blood of prophets.

Prophecy is essentially a type of divination. The difference is that prophecy is a special ability to glimpse the truth from the long river of time based on tiny variables and at the cost of life.

So the bloodlines of prophets are generally very short-lived, because they are using their lives as voyeurs.

In short, it is a special talent. If you don't have it, you don't have it. Most people can't peek into the future if they don't have it. Therefore, for most wizards, arithmetic divination is the real divination technique, and prophets and prophets are all magicians.

After a school year of study, Connor already has a clearer understanding of arithmetic divination. He can already do it based on his own abilities, but even he dare not say that he understands arithmetic divination well. How profound...

Connor's fourth-grade elective courses were still arithmetic, divination and ancient runes.

Ancient rune is to some extent a foreign language, or an incomplete foreign language. After learning the existing research results, there is actually not much left to learn, and subsequent learning depends on personal research and accumulation , so Connor planned not to take this course after the fifth grade, but to choose the protection of magical animals.

But arithmetic divination is not good. Although Connor has been able to make the Marauder's Map by himself, he still feels that he has not yet started.

Arithmancy is definitely the most complicated course at Hogwarts. There were no other courses. Last year, there were thirteen people who took this course. This year, there are only six people left, and... all of them are Connor. acquaintance

Today is the day when the fourth grade students have their first arithmetic and divination class this semester.

Setima Victor, the professor of Arithmetic Divination at Hogwarts, is an unsmiling middle-aged witch. Last year, she had a very good relationship with Connor because of her research on magic scrolls.

But at this time, the professor's face was not very good...

"This semester, seven students have left us..." Professor Victor said in a conspiratorial tone: "...I am not surprised by this result. It would be better to say that there were two people who chose this course last year. Mathematics surprised me, but it seems that those students who chose this course with ulterior motives have already given up..."

At this point, Professor Victor looked at Connor meaningfully, because most of those who ran away were girls who had "impure purposes" for him...

"But I believe that you are all good students who are outstanding enough, have enough confidence in yourself, and have a long-term vision..."

Professor Victor changed the subject, looked at the people under the podium with relief, and even showed a rare smile: "I have great expectations for you, and I also believe that you will have a bright future .”

The oppressive atmosphere was swept away, and the six students looked at each other and smiled, understanding everything.

The six people in the audience are...the twins, Cedric, Alice, Connor and Emily. Well, they are all old friends from the fraternity. They are obviously a big class in school but they failed. The small training class is enough to show how high the threshold of this course is.

"Our course is quite special. There have been very few people choosing the course over the years, and because the students who persist are all excellent, our Arithmetic Divination course is the only course that is taught in a joint class in the fourth grade. , I think you should have heard that the curriculum for grades six and seven is actually the same..."

Hogwarts graduating students are very free. They have the right to choose whether to go to class or not. The little wizards who reach the seventh grade are basically freed. What certificate you want to take and what courses you take are all up to you.

So the seventh graders will be very busy when they are busy, and they will be very idle when they are idle. After all, the teacher brings them in, and their cultivation depends on the individual, and the professors can't help the students much.

In fact, in the final analysis, the reason is that the education system in the wizarding world is not perfect. Wizarding schools only focus on basic education. Advanced magic training courses can generally only be taught by professors alone. As for further academic cutting-edge research, they have become the "professors". Hobby".

And if I have to say it, in fact, Hogwarts’ basic education is not done well. For example, asking Snape, a gloomy potion master, to teach the first and second grade wizards does nothing but scare the children into crying and teach them Apart from the lifelong psychological shadow, Connor couldn't think of any other effect...

In fact, the first and second grade courses can be taught by the professor's assistant or teaching assistant. Why don't you give the young wizards who are just starting out a smile and a friendly guide? You must let Snape, the greasy bat who thinks highly of himself, teach them. Coming to take care of children will only make everyone unhappy, and the quality of teaching is ridiculously poor.

But Connor is a soft-spoken person. In fact, he is now considered a "big man" who speaks with weight. He mentioned this matter to Dumbledore before, but after that, Dumbledore looked at him with only Under the light of Galleons, Connor never mentioned it again.

Oh, educational resources are unevenly distributed and there is a serious shortage of teachers. Just like that, Hogwarts can still be rated as one of the best magic schools in the wizarding world. Connor can only say... This is broken in the wizarding world. Take jujube pills

"I will go over the basic principles of all the courses for you before Easter. When you come back from Easter vacation, you will have classes with the fifth grade seniors..."

“woc,niubility I like this”

The twins clapped their hands excitedly. The two of them had a strange obsession with growing up quickly. They really wanted others to treat them as adults. Being able to take classes with the seniors was a great g-spot for both of them.

Professor Victor glanced at the twins lightly, but he was not very angry. The professor walked back to the podium and began to lecture:

"Now take out your textbooks. Today we are going to learn how to use Tarot cards correctly."

Six people, each with a table, each table was covered with books, and a dozen quill pens were writing and copying notes at the same time.

"Okay, that's the end of today's class. Go back and sort out all the questions I asked, write a paper, and hand it in next week. get out of class is over."

Victor glanced at the students who were seriously taking notes, nodded, and packed up his things before leaving the classroom.

Upon seeing this, Connor threw the quill away, stood up and chased after him. The quill behind him could only move sensibly on its own and continue taking notes.

"Professor, Professor Victor, wait a minute"

"Oh, what's wrong with Connor?" Seeing that it was Connor who was chasing after him, Professor Victor's expression turned a bit "kind" unconsciously. She still liked Connor, a good student.

"Professor, do you have time tonight?" Connor explained his purpose.

"Tonight, I have been studying the subject of magic scrolls recently. I am not very busy. What can I do for you?"

"Yes, I do have something to ask for your help."

Connor nodded and said with a smile: "Professor, how about you put the magic scroll aside for a while? I have a new topic here, and I believe you will be very interested."

"Oh, what kind of new subject is this?"

"This is a new topic related to numbers"

"About 0 and 1"
