Chapter 2670: near, far

What are the rules?
"Rule is the law by which everything in the world moves."
In the magical world of ancient Greece, the most prosperous period of human magical civilization... or the mainstream wizard group of that era, this sentence was once regarded as the "truth" of magic research and flourished for a while.
Because the one who said this at that time was the only wizard who stood on the top of the world when the human wizard finally reached the top of the world - the "Andros (Ancient Greek") with the title of "invincible". ,man.
It is a pity that today, the original glory is no longer there. To say that the person who really remembers this sentence is probably the only witch Kern who has actually been in that dazzling century!
Yes, even that Haierbo should not know.
After all, in the year he was born, the most glorious years of the human wizard had already come to an end with the disappearance of the invincible man.
That was also the beginning of the troubled times when the "teacher" witch Kern, whom Haierbo looked up to and chased all his life, was officially "famous" because of "that incident".
However, it must be said that that sentence, after all, seems to have survived in some way very difficultly in the ruthless tide of history.
Perhaps only the mutilated fragment remains, but it's still there.
I remember when Maca knocked on the door of the Ravenclaw Tower for the first time, the bronze eagle asked him a series of questions on the grounds of opening the secret room.
One of them asked, "What is 'truth' in all things in the world?"
This question, of course, was left by Rowena Ravenclaw back then, when Maca replied, "Material pushes appearances, and spirit deduces rules."
In fact, at that time, Maca was only bombarded by a series of inexplicable questions, and was forced to combine the answers given by some knowledge of Muggle physics. Perhaps even he himself did not know what he was talking about.
It's just from what it looks like now, regardless of whether modern Muggle science and ancient wizards' magic research actually lead to the same goal, at least at that time, Maca was indeed hit by a dead mouse by his blind cat!
"...Magic is the way that creatures in the world use their own will as a fulcrum, use their own magical powers as a medium, and interpret the rules of all things according to the established rules. The rules themselves are not superior or inferior, but the creatures are small, individuals are different from each other. There are also differences between individuals, so the known rules that can be used by living beings are gradually divided into levels based on the difficulty of control. So in fact, no matter what ability or means you use to shoot at me, the result will be the same —Because the difference between you and me is not in 'material', but in 'spirit'."
Even though she had been baptized by the innate magic of the whole team of high-level corpse powerhouses headed by Rebes, this woman did not even change her sitting position.
Not only that, she was even in the mood to explain the principles of magic to the "new humans" who attacked her, and she seemed to really want them to understand.
And in the few seconds she was speaking, the Hogwarts Great Hall, which had been smashed into ruins by the attack just now, was completely restored to its original state!
"As the first batch of new human beings to be perfected, you are actually quite enough in terms of talent," Kern continued, "but in terms of exploring the self and the rules of the world, you still have a lot of deficiencies. . This requires more time to think, to study, and to have some experience, I think you may need a clearer goal..."
As the witch Kern said, Rebes and other living corpses were lacking in "spirit". This "spirit" refers not only to the strength of spiritual power, but also to the study and study of magical abilities.
Is it still no different from beasts to fight with the instinct given by talent alone? How can it be called a "new human being"?
In fact, as far as the analysis Kern made for them, they basically didn't understand it...
On the contrary, it was Hermione and others who had already retreated to a little distance at this moment, but they got a lot of inspiration from it.
"Yeah...yeah... The rules are actually not superior. Even if they are artificially divided into one, two or three levels, the difference is only difficulty, not strength. That is to say, even if it is just the most common thing like 'cooling' Compared with the second-level and third-level rules and magic, the only difference between the first-level rules and the third-level rules is only the user’s understanding and interpretation. It’s just…

Hermione in the corner was thinking so, but her face did not show any joy that she had been able to gain further understanding of the rules and magic, but instead it became more and more solemn.
Her face became a little ugly.
Because she found that after realizing such a truth, the gap between their group and the witch Kern has not only not shortened, but has become larger!
Good thing…
"Fortunately, Maca has clearly understood this." Hermione touched the fake wand in her sleeve and muttered in her heart.
…
"Have you started already? So fast? It seems that Hermione and the others didn't drag on for too long. There might be an accident inside... We have to hurry up!"
Outside the Forbidden Forest, Harry, who had already returned quickly along the way with Maka, had not yet returned to the school's vestibule, but he had already seen a large number of living corpses that should have stayed outside. Since they have already appeared in the school, UU reading www.uukanshu.com does not mean that—
"It's Willie, she's using magical plants to block the speed of the crowd of living corpses." Maka, who was next to him, answered.
"Yes," Harry frowned, raising his sword and waving as he said, "Drink! Hmm... Hermione said, Willie is in charge of making an escape route outside the castle, and Miss Geoffine is in charge of supporting the left. Protect... give me, get out of the way! Ah..."
The last sentence was the roar caused by him kicking the enemy in anger when he didn't have time to return the sword, but the effect didn't seem to be very good.
"I know you're in a hurry, and I'm in a hurry, but you have to be more careful at times like this. You know, Hermione needs you too!" Maca helped him in time, and then so reminded.
As you get closer to the relatively sparsely treed area on the edge of the forbidden forest, the number of dead bodies increases. These living corpses have obviously been strengthened to varying degrees - the influence of demonization has become deeper and deeper.
"Don't worry, you just go forward and leave the flanks and back to me," Maca said calmly, as always, "and Willie will help too—see those vines at your feet? We In fact, she is already in her control. If anything happens, she will help!"
