Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Chapter 401 Artificial Magic Network

Murphy came to the Magic Research Institute, where research on magic metals was carried out earlier than the Void Particle Research Institute in the Soviet Union. They had also long realized that magic could affect the properties of various materials, including semiconductors.

But before he could find Denzel Evans, a research expert on magic semiconductors, he saw Haldane and others tinkering with a huge device. The largest laboratories are full.

There was a construction drawing hanging near the huge device, and Murphy couldn't help but stop and look at it for a while.

"Director!" Haldane saw Murphy and rushed over.

"Is this a honeycomb?" Murphy asked after glancing at the three-dimensional structure composed of countless hexagonal grids on the construction drawings.

"Exactly," Haldane looked very excited, "but what is being built now is only a partial test structure. It is mainly used to verify whether the Department of Mysteries is a node of the 'Magic Network' and to complete the magic energy extraction experiment."

I went to the Department of Mysteries before, and Murphy realized that the Department of Mysteries might be part of the "Magic Network". After Haldane and others made preliminary theoretical calculations, they found that Murphy was probably right. There is a high probability that Si is an important node in the Magic Network.

In order to verify this speculation and examine the possibility of extracting magic power from the Magic Network as a stable energy source, they launched the "Artificial Magic Network" project under Murphy's authorization.

The honeycomb is the first step in the artificial magic network plan.

"Together with Jim Best's team, we inspected the underground magic source room of the Danish Ministry of Magic, and asked the shaman of Alkaim to take us to visit the magic hub of the Holy City. They have the same characteristics as the Department of Mysteries of the British Ministry of Magic. With many similar properties, we are basically certain that they are all the same type of thing."

"The uniquely marked magic added by the magic torrent we have flowing through the Department of Mysteries will be detected in the magic hub of the Holy City and the Danish magic source room. This shows that the magic nodes in the three places are connected."

"We speculate that these torrents of magic, as well as the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic of various countries as a turning point, together form a huge magic network covering the entire world."

Although this conjecture has not been fully verified, Haldane is already very excited. He proposed the conjecture of the Magic Network a few years ago when he first came into contact with magic. At that time, he felt that it would take at least a few more years to prove this conjecture. Ten years have passed, but I didn’t expect this day to come so soon.

"The architectural structure of the Department of Mysteries is obviously a magical ritual. Each room retains a special and extreme magical energy. They are isolated from each other, but have a certain connection, forming a powerful magical resonance."

"Jim Best and I agree that this resonance is the key to connecting various magic nodes."

"The hive imitates the structure of the Department of Mysteries. If our guess is correct, it will resonate with it and become a magical tributary."

Murphy nodded and looked at the construction drawing. Each hexagonal square in the drawing has a mark drawn on it. Some are hearts, some are skulls, some are crystal balls, etc., which respectively represent love, death, prophecy and other energies.

But there were some things Murphy had never seen before. He pointed to a small head on the icon that looked like the style of "The Scream" and asked, "What is this?"

"Ah, this is the source of fear." Haldane explained. "In one experiment, we imprisoned the Dementor in a ball filled with the energy of the Patronus, and continuously compressed the ball. We wanted to see if the Dementor could Whether the monster will die or not, it turns out that it can be compressed into a ball of unconscious pure energy, and this energy has extremely strong spiritual polarity and is a very pure magic power of fear."

"This fear magic is almost infinite. As long as it is extracted within one time, it can replenish itself like the magic stone. We think this may be one of the reasons for the immortality of Dementors."

"Polar magic energy has many similarities with the original substance. In fact, we once tried to compress a large number of dementors and artificially create the original substance. However, the magic power produced by a single dementor was too small, far inferior to the magic stone. It’s not very valuable as an energy source, but it’s enough as one of the extreme energies of the hive.”

"Oh, the dementor compression experiment." Murphy remembered that he had seen this thing before in the weekly results paper submitted by the Magic Research Institute.

It has to be said that these scientists are really all geniuses. They are dementors who were drained into batteries...

However, the similarity between the polar magic energy and the original substance mentioned by Haldane made Murphy more concerned. There may be some connection between them, but the two are also different.

Each polarity magic energy, such as love, death, etc., has an extremely single magic attribute, but the essence is different. Its magic attributes are more like a hexagonal warrior, reaching extremely high frequencies in all dimensions. .

However, the torrent of magic caused by the resonance of multiple polarities of magic energy also has multi-dimensional properties similar to the original matter. Now that lunar mining is no longer possible, it is most suitable to be used as an energy source to replace the magic stone.

"How long will it take for the hive to be fully completed?" Murphy asked.

"Don't worry, director, the main structure is almost complete. All that's left is the layout and installation of the magic wires. We can complete the verification test within a month."

Murphy nodded and encouraged: "Come on, whether we can truly enter the era of magic energy may depend on this experiment."

…

After leaving the Conjuration Pathway Research Group, Murphy found Denzel Evans.

The latter actually locked himself in a laboratory. According to his assistant, he had been living there for more than half a month, and usually had his meals delivered directly in by the house elf.

"The team leader is under a lot of pressure. He is almost obsessed with studying the properties of demonized silicon." An assistant said, "If this continues, I'm afraid he will die in the laboratory."

Murphy frowned and apparated into the laboratory.

A thin, short researcher is testing the performance of materials in front of the test bench with a chicken coop on his head.

"No!" He looked at the data on the tester, with a nervous anxiety on his face. "The magic flux can affect the magic energy resistance of the material, but the resistance cannot recover on its own. This kind of material cannot be used as a semiconductor. !”

Murphy stood behind Denzel and glanced at the data on the screen, suddenly feeling familiar.

"What material is this? Magic silicon?" Murphy asked.

"No, magic silicon carbide cannot rely on silicon alone. The silicon lattice is a compound lattice. There are two kinds of non-equivalent atoms in the lattice, which will have a blocking effect on the flow of magic. The fluidity of silicon carbide better."

Denzel seemed unaware of the person behind him and said as if talking to himself, "But it still doesn't work. The change in its magic resistance is not linear. It seems to be transformed by the second magic flow and change its properties..."

Murphy looked at the graphic and suddenly it occurred to him that this thing was indeed not suitable for semiconductors.

But who said that magic chips must be made of semiconductors?

"Denzel, you are limited by the thinking of semiconductors," Murphy suddenly said, "The magic resistance changes with the magic flux, and it can maintain the resistance and will not recover on its own. This shows that this material itself can be stored history information."

"Have you ever heard of artificial neural networks and memristors?"
