Jon was very good at thinking.
This was the quality that the research experience in his memory gave him. Thinking and experimenting beyond the norm was extremely normal in Jon's life.
What were the rules?
Rules were sometimes protective umbrellas, but sometimes they were iron fences. Especially when it came to research, the less rules the better.
Jon searched for the magical waves around Snape, and tried to figure out what kind of magic it was through the feedback of the water lines, and then made a countermeasure.
"So, this is the deconstruction method?"
Feeling the prototype of magic gradually becoming clearer in front of his eyes, like tiny symbols starting to be engraved in his consciousness, Jon felt that it was unbelievable.
Because Helga had never taught him this before, and neither had any other teachers.
"That's right, this is the deconstruction method."
Snape nodded, and retracted the magical power he had spread out, "This is a method that appeared in the 15th century — I can't say that it's magic, it's a method that was derived from [Poseidon].
The main purpose is to help the Wizard see what magic looks like.
Do you know about tides? "
Jon nodded.
"Just like how the sea will ebb and flow, the magical elements in the world have their own active and dormant periods. It is said that a long time ago, there was a method to directly observe the activity of the magical elements, but it has been long lost."
Snape felt like he was popularizing science, while Jon felt like he was absorbing additional knowledge. The two of them unexpectedly maintained a tacit understanding of "teaching a lesson".
"Now, there is no way to detect the activity of magic, but as time passed, the Wizard still found a way — the powerful Wizard could determine this result by feeling it himself, and the most recent result was given to the International Magic Association by Mr. Nico Lemour ten years ago."
"What result?"
"The exact value is not very clear, but it is said to be similar to the result thirty years ago."
Jon nodded slightly.
This result was actually similar to what he understood. The magical environment in Hogwarts had always been stronger, and because of the existence of the Forbidden Forest, Helga's perception of the surrounding magical environment was rather slow in passive environment and space, and would only become more sensitive when it was actively interfered with.
But even so, the results that Helga provided to Jon were more than enough.
According to the drawings drawn by Jon and Helga, the results from ten years ago and thirty years ago were almost certain. The period around the twentieth year was the lowest point of the trough. After that, the strength of the magic environment began to rise, so the whole cycle was real.
In other words, it was the tides.
"But the results aren't that important. According to the many documents and manuscripts accumulated in the Hogwarts Library, the magical environment many years ago was still very powerful. If you have the chance, you can go and take a look at these. But … "
"But I can't see it now, can I? Otherwise, you wouldn't have told me about this. "
"Of course, these materials are all confidential manuscripts kept in the library. They are not in the area where students can come into contact with them. If you want to see them, you have to become a dean like me first. Of course, your status is slightly different. Maybe you can become a teacher."
"Alright, Professor, let's stop here. Let's get back to the topic and talk about the deconstruction method."
Jon changed the topic. Then, his expression changed and he started to think deeply.
Soon, he furrowed his brows.
"Professor, the symbol that you released just now …"
Snape waved his magic wand and a large symbol appeared in front of Jon's eyes.
"What … is this?"
"This is a construction symbol …" Snape felt that it was a little strange. "Didn't you learn the lessons in the academy?"
Jon suddenly realized that he was out of touch with the normal magic society.
"Speaking of which, it's weird. When you released your magic for the first time, I didn't feel your magic symbol … Did you learn the magic taught in the academy?"
Of course, Snape knew what happened last year. But he didn't think that the improved magic was done by Jon.
Speaking of which, those magic spells didn't seem to have symbols that could be sensed.
Now that he saw Jon like this, he immediately understood.
"The so-called improved magic incantations that you learned were taught to you by Madam Hufflepuff, right? These kind of ancient magic incantations can't be found anymore. Even Professor Flick is restoring these magic incantations. Speaking of which, your so-called improvement gave Professor Flick a lot of inspiration. "
"Really?"
Obviously, his secret was exposed, but Jon couldn't help but smile. He didn't want to say anything.
Because he suddenly thought of something.
He knew how to fuse [Eavesdropping Wind Whisper] and [Poseidon] together.
Snape was right. The effect of [Poseidon] didn't work on a single sense. It worked on the overall perception.
But the only problem was that it was too troublesome to control and consumed a lot of magic power.
There was no direct way to solve this problem. It could only be solved by reducing the range of use and increasing the efficiency.
Jon wanted to use [Eavesdropping Wind Whisper] to increase the range. It was possible, but it lacked efficiency.
The deconstruction method had this kind of efficiency.
And after understanding the practical application of the deconstruction method, Jon's problem was solved.
He could even draw inferences about other things.
This feeling was like a person running in a dark forest for a long time and finally seeing a small house emitting warm light. Even if this was the residence of a Wizard, it was still a place with light.
Even if the light here was extremely weak, but to this person who came out of the darkness, the entire environment had become completely different.
So many parts of the deconstruction method that didn't seem to make sense now had an explanation.
This was because too many steps were omitted in order to achieve a faster analysis speed. This method was collectively created by the wizards in order to comprehend the enemy's magical intent in the shortest amount of time.
Ignore all irrelevant information and go straight to the point to see what magic the opponent was going to use.
And with the continuous consolidation of the Wizard's magic teaching, the use of the deconstruction method gradually became simpler. The magical waves that originally needed to be analyzed were now just looking at the symbols.
This was actually the tragedy of a magic environment at its lowest point.
But the good thing was that the lowest point was now over. Although it was difficult to recover to the peak, it was not a problem to recover to the Middle Ages in a few years.
The rebound speed was still acceptable.
