"How is that possible!"
"You're joking."
1
Not only Percy couldn't accept it, but everyone present thought Lane was joking with them, especially Harry Potter.
I don't know. He went to see Dumbledore yesterday and Dumbledore said something to him. Anyway, he seems perfectly normal now and hasn't pressed Ryan for the truth he wanted to know.
At this moment, possessing the power of Voldemort, he was absolutely certain that even if he risked his life, he couldn't make his magic possess even one percent of the power shown in the images.
Even if Voldemort himself was stronger than him, the difference should be limited. If Ryan said that he and Voldemort were evenly matched, Harry would think it was possible. But according to Ryan, he was far inferior to Voldemort. Harry couldn't accept this: "Senior Ryan, I think Voldemort's power is definitely not as great as yours."
Those who were good at analysis present had some idea that Harry Potter had been chosen as a human pillar, because Harry's sudden increase in strength occurred after Voldemort was captured.
Harry and Voldemort seem to be an inseparable pair in the wizarding world. Even without concrete evidence, Harry's transformation inevitably sparks much speculation.
Therefore, when Harry spoke so definitively, Vio nodded slightly, seemingly confirming his guess.
Ryan didn't directly answer Harry's question. He tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the top of his head to look out the window: "Remember when we first met, I mentioned the levels I had divided wizarding power into? I said that my next step was to reach the level of several headmasters, and that I was still two steps away from the level of Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor Nicolas Flamel, and Voldemort."
"If a great wizard explores the essence of magic, begins to analyze its nature, and can freely change its form, then a great wizard is still a wizard, and their understanding is still limited by other wizards. Every era will have a dozen or so such wizards."
However, the level at which the headmaster and his group reached—a level that could be described as legendary over a millennium—was already beyond the imagination of wizards. They had completed the analysis of the essence of magic from their own areas of expertise, and had integrated metaphysical concepts into themselves. Therefore, their magic contradicted the common sense of any magical discipline.
"For example, the mastery of concepts in alchemy, or the principal's ability to cover a space with his Transfiguration technique."
Take, for example, Voldemort's Avada Kedavra curse, which incorporates death itself. I would say that it can be seen as an invitation from Death himself. Throughout the entire history of magic, no wizard would willingly engage in a modern-day wizarding duel with Voldemort in direct combat, nor would any wizard be capable of stepping off that dueling platform.
The key points revealed in these words made the attendees at the gathering eager to take out their notebooks and jot them down.
This is because it first discussed the level and work of those internationally renowned masters, and also mentioned that wizards like the principal are outsiders and not common.
The only thing that people don't quite understand is the final assessment of Voldemort.
Ryan knew these people wouldn't understand, and he couldn't understand it either before witnessing Voldemort's Killing Curse. But after witnessing Voldemort's Killing Curse with Quirrell's help, he was able to imagine how Voldemort would kill everything in his prime.
Unfortunately, I can't use magic right now, otherwise I could use the Pensieve to extract memories and let them experience them firsthand. He regrets that he has been lying in bed for a long time this time, which has caused him to stop building the secret realm.
One of the dungeon-climbing types of secret realms is a virtual dungeon he developed based on years of gaming experience. The entire dungeon is a super-large meditation basin. As long as the memories are imported and solidified, the young wizards who come to participate in the trial can experience an adventure that is both real and unreal, both illusory and fantastical.
Every adventurers' gathering is the focus of attention across the entire school, and this time was no exception.
After the party ended, people went their separate ways, and the news spread.
News has emerged regarding the persecution of dwarf wizards by Muggles, and Hogwarts' alliance with Beauxbatons to rescue them.
There's also a brief mention by Ryan of how wizards at the final two levels actually perform.
The most exhilarating thing was that Ryan himself admitted that the world-destroying flames in those top-secret photos they saw were used by him!
Therefore, even though Ryan claims that he is still a long way from being a legend.
But none of the young wizards believed it, sticking to their own opinions, thinking that Ryan was just a magic student and what did he know about Ryan?
And no one was more confident than these young wizards that they understood Ryan.
When Penelope visited Ryan at the school infirmary, she mentioned the increasingly outrageous rumors circulating about him.
Ryan was both amused and exasperated after hearing this. He never expected that such a small place as Hogwarts would have so many know-it-alls.
There's something I've always wanted to tell you, but it's hard to say it.
A terrible remark came out of Ryan's mouth.
Penelope remained unmoved; she simply didn't believe this person could become enlightened, and even if they could, it certainly wouldn't be now: "Go on," she said.
"You should know, Professor, he's always been very interested in studying weapons for ordinary people." Ryan took out a book. "He's done a lot of research on weapons of mass destruction for ordinary people. Originally, he hoped to create a suppression-level weapon powered by magic, but in the end, he found that it was better than nothing. So he gave me the experience he had summarized and went to study the mass-energy equivalence equation himself."
"I don't have such lofty ideals as a professor. In my opinion, no one stipulates that scientific theories cannot be used by wizards. They can be copied verbatim."
When facing Penelope, the professor only had one person: their shared dean, Flitwick.
Ryan held Flitwick and the others in high esteem, a respect that extended not only to his teachers but also to his fellow travelers on the path of magic.
However, the two held some differences in their views; one was a pure scholar, while the other tended to be pragmatic.
Just like his research on the weapon of mass destruction, Flitwick could be said to have completed 70%, but because this research was different from his desired goal, he was unwilling to continue with the remaining 30%, namely the extraction of elements for factory construction.
Ryan, however, was different. He consistently supported Penelope's idea of enchanting firearms. In his view, if ordinary people could use a weapon, wizards could use it just as well, and perhaps even better. There was no reason why wizards couldn't touch weapons that ordinary people used, as if they had trademark rights; that was a foolish idea.
Especially powerful weapons; the wizarding world may not need them, but it cannot be without them.
"So you want us to make a killer weapon against Muggles too?" Penelope said.
Ryan nodded: "This book is the professor's notes to me. It's obvious that I can't manage this project from start to finish by myself. Among the people I know, you are the only one I can trust and who has expertise in this field. I hope you can help me with this."
Penelope took the notebook from Ryan's hand, without flipping through it, and stared at Ryan intently, saying, "I am also part of the wizarding world. This isn't about helping you; it's about planning for the future of all wizards in the entire wizarding world."
"I apologize for my slip of the tongue, madam," Ryan said. "Then, Ryan Wales extends an invitation to you, hoping that you will take on the great task of ensuring the future security of the wizarding world."
"I accept, Mr. Lane."
