Chapter 427: Only pictures and truth are the real prophecies

"Wizards learn about the world through magic..."

Professor Trelawney explains: "But... the more you learn about the world, the more it blocks your vision.

"Divination is the most difficult of all magical arts. It has extremely high requirements for talent. If there is no vision, you can only do the most basic divination based on the experience of previous people."

"Vision is an inspiration that transcends the real world, so...the only thing that can hinder the horizon is your own understanding of the world."

Andy nodded understandingly.

The knowledge in books is the divination experience summarized by predecessors.

Without sight, divination can only be based on experience.

For example: a black dog represents a bad omen.

But if you have a field of vision, the knowledge in books is of little use - because the field of vision itself is an inspiration that can predict the future.

Horizon is inspiration beyond the real world!

It's like the characters in a two-dimensional comic see the plot behind the comic through the perspective of the three-dimensional world.

Because of this, the more you know about the world, the more things stand in the way of inspiration - just like 'the more obstacles a person has in front of him, the less he can see the scenery in the distance'.

And Andy not only knows magic, Andy also understands science.

So there are many obstacles in front of Andy!

But the crystal ball...

Why does Andy's use of physical objects for divination go so smoothly?

Andy looked at Professor Trelawney in confusion.

Professor Trelawney continued to explain: "It is different to use physical objects for divination. We use a medium like a crystal ball to replace your field of vision through magic."

Hermione heard this and asked curiously: "Use magic instead of sight? What if there is no sight?"

"Of course not!"

Professor Trelawney said: "Sight is an inspiration that transcends the real world. Without sight, even if you perform divination in the same way, you can only be a blind man."

Hermione seemed to have lost her soul when she heard this.

Andy somewhat understood, "Professor, if you come to divination... no, you can directly use your sight to perceive the future. But for someone like me who cannot see through the fog, I must use tools to let magic replace my sight. ?"

Andy's words immediately made Professor Trelawney very happy.

Although Professor Trelawney cannot often make real predictions, the predictions she usually makes casually are also very accurate.

Andy calculated that the accuracy rate was at least 90%.

"Collins, you are a fine little wizard."

Professor Trelawney naturally started a business exchange, "When your vision cannot see through the fog, we will use tools to let your magic pass through the fog."

"However... this requires very advanced magical attainments, which ordinary people cannot do."

Andy got it!

Thinking about it carefully, this method of divination is still very suitable for Andy.

After all, there are pictures and there is truth!

Unlike Professor Trelawney, who is often regarded as a liar.

"Collins, you can try again." Professor Trelawney looked at Andy with 'encouraging' eyes.

If Andy succeeds in divination again, Professor Trelawney decides... to find Dumbledore immediately.

She wants a raise!

After all, people who can do divination are still very rare in the magic world.

Especially people like Andy, who not only have vision, but also have extremely strong magical attainments - they can use magic to display what they perceive through their vision.

It’s so valuable!

"Yeah!" Andy nodded.

Andy is also looking forward to the next fortune telling.

In particular, the red liquid in the system ball is really swollen!

"call--"

After adjusting his mentality, Andy closed his eyes, placed his hands on both sides of the crystal ball, and began the divination ritual.

The conversation between Andy and Professor Trelawney attracted many people in the classroom. They all know that Andy has vision, but has been unable to make accurate predictions.

In the words of Professor Trelawney: Andy's vision was obscured by fog.

But now... the situation has obviously changed.

They watched Andy perform the divination quietly.

Hermione also came back to her senses and carefully stared at the changes inside the crystal ball.

In fact, the little witch has always been skeptical about the concept of 'sight'. She feels that as long as she learns the knowledge in books and memorizes them all, she can learn the real divination.

But this is obviously not the case!

Time passed little by little, and when Andy opened his eyes, a white mist appeared again in the crystal ball.

Andy held his breath and watched carefully.

Hogwarts Castle first appeared in the white mist, and then Fudge walked in with two Aurors.

The picture disappears here.

This time, Andy didn't divine someone, but a fortune-telling about Hogwarts.

Wow——

There was an uproar in the classroom.

"Minister Fudge will come to Hogwarts?"

"is this real?"

"Andy made a real prophecy?"

"Andy, when will Minister Fudge come over?" someone suddenly asked.

"Nine-thirty, less than ten."

Andy thought for a while and said, "After this class, you can wait at the door. If there are no classes next, you will probably see Fudge before ten o'clock."

The little wizards immediately started talking, and many of them were already preparing to go to the door to wait for Fudge.

Because this is the first... no, it should be the second prophecy made by Andy, who has a 'sight'.

They wanted to testify whether the prophecy was true.

Andy was also very satisfied when he saw this.

If the prophecy comes true, then after this matter spreads, more people will come to him for divination.

Andy already had a premonition that the red liquid in the system ball was about to experience a surge.

"Professor Trelawney!"

Ron suddenly asked: "Can you also use a crystal ball for divination?"

"sure."

Professor Trelawney said in a sincere voice: "If you progress quickly, after you finish learning palmistry next semester, you can learn how to use crystal balls for divination."

The little wizards suddenly became excited.

Andy: "..."

Andy suddenly thought of something.

Professor Trelawney has said before that if you want to use tools to let magic pass through the fog, you need very high magical attainments.

Most people can’t do it!

Andy felt that Professor Trelawney might be one of those 'ordinary people'.

If Professor Trelawney could really let the magic pass through the fog and let the magic show the picture of the future, then she would not be regarded as a liar professor.

After all, there are pictures and there is truth!

Thinking of this, Andy suddenly realized that perhaps among all the masters of divination, wizards with "extremely high magical attainments" like himself were the minority.

Awesome!
