Connor's Hogwarts

"Hey, friend, if you want to give a speech, go farther away, okay? You're blocking our business here."

When the young man wanted to continue talking, Bob, the owner of Lake Tavern, had already come out to chase them away.

After being glared at by the bald boss, the young man ran away decisively and cowardly, but he still took away a group of passers-by who wanted to continue listening to him talk about his new discoveries. As soon as this person left, the crowd in front of Lake's Tavern dispersed. .

In Connor's "invisible realm", Alice tugged on Connor's robe and asked, "Connor, is everything that person said true?"

"In a general sense, that is indeed true. Haven't I already asked everyone in the fraternity to learn how to use the magic pen? If it is not a good thing, why would I deliberately remind everyone?" Connor shrugged.

"But then your magic card business will...wait a minute! Connor, couldn't that person just be arranged by you yourself?" Alice's eyes suddenly widened.

"Haha, yes, Alice, you actually thought of it. It's quite smart. In order to increase the sales of the magic pen, this is a deliberate arrangement by our family. In the next few days, major newspapers will have a special analysis of the uses of the magic pen. reports, this was originally our publicity strategy."

"Why would it not be better to use this method for publicity? Wouldn't it be better to make a direct official statement? Isn't that the effect of the magic pen itself?"

Connor spread his hands: "It's just because we don't want to publicize it openly. For various reasons, we don't intend to admit the special effects of the magic pen, and people are always more willing to believe in the answers they discover, right?"

Alice put away her joke mask, her little face was full of seriousness, "No wonder you didn't seem to care much about the magic scroll being produced by other families from the beginning. So you have already prepared the magic pen as a back-up move? Your family didn’t plan to make money on magic cards from the beginning?”

Connor smiled and said noncommittally: "Magic cards are a business that does not lose money. How can you say that you don't intend to make money? Even if the cards you make are more powerful and easier to use, some people will still buy ready-made cards. Goods, but the price of this scroll will definitely come down in the future, but no matter how much the price is reduced, you will still make money, after all, the cost of this thing is very low."

"But those families who spent a lot of money to build factories in order to steal your family's business will suffer huge losses, right? After discovering that the magic scrolls they produce cannot compete with your family's sales, and their sales continue to decline, they may finally They will also sell the factory to stop losses, and then your Lake family can take the opportunity to acquire their factory! Connor, you are so bad! I like it so much!"

The more Alice talked, the brighter her eyes became, and finally they turned into starry eyes, and her whole body was fixed on Connor.

"Nonsense, where are you? Our family is a serious businessman. There is no such thing as bad or bad. Even if it is bad, it's none of my business. I'm just a student. I don't know anything."

"Hey, Connor, tell me, what happened to that person's demonstration just now? Why does the magic pen have so many special effects?"

"It's very simple, because essentially the magic pen is a tool more advanced than the magic wand. Just like in the past, humans used bronze swords, then iron knives, and now steel blades. Human beings rely on their ability to use tools well. With the status of being the overlord of the Earth, isn’t it normal that better and more advanced tools would be more efficient and useful?”

Connor pointed at the crowd walking towards the square. The young man over there was still continuing his speech, "For example, the knife he drew just now easily cut off the knife of the Transfiguration Technique. That's because the 'material' shape was drawn with the magic pen. Magic Painting' is originally the most advanced form of transformation—magic transformation."

"When we use the deformation technique, the effect of the deformation technique will be more or less affected by the deformation material. This is inevitable. If you point at a branch and let it turn into a knife, you subconsciously know that the knife is a branch that turns into a knife. Yes, but the magic painting is different. The knife in the magic painting is the embodiment of magic power. Wizards have a very vague concept of magic power. When the wizard draws the knife, he does not think about what it came from. He only thinks of the knife. Very sharp.”

"What...what do you mean?"

". Let me put it another way, assuming that when a wizard uses transformation, his thinking circuit is [branch-transformation-knife], then when he draws a magic painting, his thinking circuit becomes [drawing-knife] -Sharp], do you understand?”

Alice suddenly said: "I understand, you are saying that the magic pen has optimized the casting structure of the transformation technique? It makes it easier for people to use more advanced transformation techniques!"

"Yes, it is precisely because of the influence of the casting materials and the casting process that the magic painting using the magic pen looks more powerful than the transformation spell."

Alice touched her cheek: "So, if a transfiguration master were to try the test just now, wouldn't it have such an effect?"

"Absolutely. In fact, that person's performance can only deceive those who are not good at the art. It's not right. It can't be said to be a lie. After all, the effect is real. After all, a wizard who truly understands the art of transformation can have How many?"

Connor smiled and continued: "The second performance is actually very simple. The magic cards that are uniformly manufactured through machinery actually contain a standard amount of magic, and the effects are uniform and ordinary. When you create the scroll yourself, , if a large amount of magic power is poured into it, the effect will naturally be different..."

"...In addition, personal understanding of magic patterns will also affect the effect of the scroll. In short, self-made cards are easier to use than mass-produced ones, just like buying food and cooking is more cost-effective than ordering takeout. Is it natural?"

Connor shrugged: "To put it bluntly, the magic pen is just a new tool. It provides wizards with another way to cast spells. Compared with the wand, it is like a long knife and a thin sword. Each has its own advantages. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior.”

"But Squibs can use the Magic Pen too, can't they?"

"Well, this is one of the advantages of the magic pen... Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. You don't want to go into the store to buy anything. Let's go." Connor put away the small umbrella and walked into Lake Tavern with Alice.

Alice was happy now. She held Connor's arm and almost jumped next to Connor. Connor couldn't do anything to her. As long as Alice didn't do anything outrageous, he would let her go. Already…

As a result, as soon as the two of them entered the store, they noticed dozens of pairs of eyes focused on this direction.

"." Connor glanced at the seats next to him. Good guys, they are all acquaintances. Fred George raised his wine glass over here, Cedric winked over there, and Penello looked up at the menu with his eyes closed. Staring at this side, there were several tables looking at the girls laughing and joking here, and half of the pub was filled with people from the fraternity!

Love, you came over here early in the morning and stayed to watch my excitement? Do you want to be so gossipy? ? And take pictures! Are you taking pictures of Nima! ?

Connor suddenly wondered if the image he had established was too gentle. These guys obviously lacked due respect for their boss, which was very bad!

After Alice noticed the "group of relatives and friends" next to her, she waved to them very happily, almost without reading her acceptance speech in public.
