Of course, Jon had heard of the Time Turner before. After all, it was a rather prominent item in the original work.
The so-called Time Turner was actually a device used to travel in time. It looked like an hourglass hanging on a golden necklace.
The Time Converter looked like a small shiny gold timer. It had a very long and very fine gold chain. Every time the Time Converter turned, it could rewind time by an hour.
The number of times the hourglass was turned represented the number of hours that time was rewound.
And for a Time Turner, the professor had to write all kinds of letters to the Ministry of Magic, telling them that the owner was a model student and would never use it for anything other than learning.
Jon remembered that Miss Hermione Granger had used this item to accomplish several big things when she was a third-year student, so Jon remembered it quite clearly.
Even if it was not the original work, Jon had heard the name of the item from his mother and seen what the real item looked like.
After all, all the Time Turner was stored in a glass door cabinet in the Time Hall of the Department of Mystical Affairs of the Ministry of Magic, and Mrs. Smith was an employee of the Department of Mystical Affairs.
So when he heard this sentence, Jon was still shocked.
"Time Turner? Aren't there many of those things stored in the Ministry of Magic? "
He said, "Since the British Ministry of Magic can store so many, I think the whole Western Magic world should have a lot of them, right?"
"Those things that are not even defective?"
Perenal snorted. "Magic related to time is very unstable. I don't think I need to say more about this. Serious violations of the law of time can also cause disastrous consequences.
However, the Time Converter that you mentioned is only a consumable item. It can only be used a certain number of times. Using it for a long period of time will cause the converter to lose its effectiveness. The essence is that the material can't withstand the use of the law of time, so it will eventually collapse. As for the so-called Time Converter that you mentioned, some of them can't even be considered as defective products. "
Perenal's tone was very strange, but Jon felt that the witch was just looking down on the Time Converter that the Ministry of Magic guarded so tightly. She didn't mean anything else.
Jon was very clear about what a defective product meant. As great alchemists, it was normal for Lemay and her husband to have obsessive-compulsive disorder when it came to certain matters. For example, Jon had seen Snape's obsessive-compulsive disorder when it came to magic potions.
Could it be that every Master-level Wizard would develop some sort of obsessive-compulsive disorder in their field of expertise?
"Then, is the time converter you're talking about a complete time converter?"
Perrenal shook his head. "The so-called complete Time Converter isn't something a Wizard like us can create. It's an alchemy item, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a divine artifact. The one Nicole is currently creating is only slightly more complete than the defective ones I've mentioned. Are you interested in hearing about it?"
"Of course. You haven't told me what exactly I helped with."
At this point, Jon more or less understood what Perrenal meant. He also roughly understood what exactly his "help" was, but now wasn't the time for him to show off.
Listening was a very good virtue, and Jon was very good at it.
It was better to listen to what the other party had to say, especially when the person speaking was an elder and a senior. It would be beneficial to listen more and speak less.
Jon would never let go of any opportunity to learn and understand.
"Actually, your help is very simple. It's because you brought us time."
"Brought … … time?"
Jon was a little confused. This was pretty much what he had guessed, but where did his "time" come from?
"The law of time is a very high level law. This kind of law can't be used alone in a world. You must have the corresponding strength, or the corresponding law to support you."
"Mm."
Jon nodded, indicating that he was listening.
"When you're using the time converter, it doesn't matter if you're looking back to the past or the future. Of course, because the future is often uncertain, most people will choose to look at the past and experience a period of time repeatedly. But as I said before, the time converter that everyone knows is a defective product. It doesn't have the ability to change the timeline."
"No, madam. I've seen my mother use the time converter to do some things. If the time converter itself doesn't have the ability to change the timeline, then how do you explain what I saw?"
Jon asked "timely". In fact, he had some guesses about what Perrenal was talking about before. After seeing the time converter being used with his own eyes, Jon couldn't even remember what had changed. He only felt that something had changed.
"That's very easy to explain, my dear."
Perrenal explained to Jon with great interest. "Even if it's a defective time converter, since it's called this, it means that it has the relevant power. I once used a better defective product to perform the so-called 'time travel', but to my disappointment, it wasn't real time travel. It was just a projection of a part of my soul to travel to the preset timeline and make some established changes, such as this cup in my hand."
Chao En watched as the cup in Perenal's hand was shattered into powder by the powerful magic. Then, after Perenal touched the pocket watch on her chest, Chao En saw that the powder in the cup in her hand seemed to have turned upside down and turned back into a cup.
"This is the effect of the defective Time Converter. By modifying the timeline of a small space, it can complete some changes to what happened in the timeline of a fixed space, thereby achieving the effect of modifying time. The restrictions are very large. This is also the reason why there are so many related prohibitions. If there are no restrictions in this small space, then even a point can affect the direction of the entire world."
The butterfly effect.
Jon nodded to show that he understood. His mind was frantically organizing and summarizing Perrenal's words, afraid that he would miss something.
This was firsthand information.
"Nicole and I have been researching the Time Converter for a very, very long time. However, because it involves too many laws, we haven't been able to succeed until you came."
