Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 234 Review and Summary

After finishing what he promised to his friend, Sainz focused on his own hobbies.

Sainz is preparing his own animal enclosure. Isn't this the reason why he tried so hard to become Hagrid's assistant?

With Conte and Jinling's help, he didn't have to keep an eye on his animals like some of his predecessors to see if they ran away, were injured, or were eating well. He only needed to think about how to add members to his zoo.

The production of the space cabinet is proceeding in an orderly manner. Making a small storage space is an easy task for him, but making a large space that can establish self-circulation is not a simple task.

The expansion of space is not a point-to-point linear relationship, but a cubic exponential relationship. It will expand very fast at the beginning, but after expanding to a certain stage, every meter of expansion is a huge update.

After more than a year of hard work, the space cabinet has now become a cubic space with a side length of 550 meters.

His goal was to reach at least one cubic kilometer before he had to move the plants and animals out of the Room of Requirement.

Once the animals and plants move in, it becomes difficult to operate.

Now he could cast spells inside without any scruples. Even if he accidentally messed up, at most his hard work of more than a year would be wasted. But if he messed up while there were living creatures inside, it would be a serious sin.

Now Sai feels that he doesn't need to worry about his safety for the time being, and his work focus has gradually shifted from strengthening himself to his interests.

He only chose two courses, animals and plants, not entirely out of utilitarian considerations, but because he preferred dealing with living things to dealing with people.

He still remembered the question he asked himself when he first arrived at Diagon Alley: what attracted him most to the wizarding world?

The first image that flashed through his mind at that moment was the image that left the deepest impression on him when he watched a movie in his previous life - Mrs. Weasley's various kitchen utensils were washing themselves. Another image was the witch Queenie in the prequel "Fantastic Beasts" - probably that was her name - using her magic wand to direct various ingredients to roll themselves up in the air and finally become a baked bread.

In the magical world, what attracts Sainz most has always been the fascinating magic of turning the impossible into possible, and the pleasure of making life more comfortable with just a wave of the hand.

Even after four years, he had mastered great power, power that would make some stupid wizards envy, hate and hate him if he told others about it, but his heart had never changed. He was always that romantic and imaginative kid who pursued magic and wanted to witness more magic.

Now Sainz feels free!

When a person can make his own choices freely, he is free at that moment!

He is free now, and he can freely choose whether to stay in Hogwarts in the future instead of begging others to allow him to stay here!

You can also freely choose whether to allow some stupid wizards to jump around in front of you, instead of watching certain things happen and cursing in your heart!

"Haha... Sai is free, truly free!" Sainz laughed heartily in his secret room, looking up to the sky, extremely happy, and said to the patron saint of flying: "Dapeng, only you can understand my feelings!"

He chanted loudly without restraint, "When the great roc rises with the wind, it soars up to ninety thousand miles..."

Sai's pace of life can finally slow down a little. The magic lamp that is enough to influence the lifestyle of the entire wizarding world - luminous powder - has been completely developed and is only waiting for the right time to be put on the market. He can then wait for the entire wizarding world to be under his influence.

A good warrior has no great reputation. Sai does not seek fame and fortune, he only wants to gather all the knowledge in the world.

It is not easy to truly achieve this. Not to mention all the knowledge in the world, the knowledge in the Hogwarts Library alone - with his current ability - is enough for him to read until he dies, and he would not be able to remember even one hundredth of it.

He still remembered that his first project was to develop a memory data storage library. At that time, he named the spell that had not yet been created the Memory Palace.

Looking back at the name now, he felt ashamed of his ignorance.

In my previous life, I had only heard of this term inadvertently, and I took it for granted that it was a way of displaying memories like in a palace. It happened to be somewhat similar to the database I wanted to develop, so I just adopted the principle of taking what I wanted and used it directly.

It was not until I went out on business during the summer vacation that I truly understood this way of memory in the Muggle world. Only then did I realize that my assumptions were completely wrong!

The so-called memory palace does not mean displaying memories in a palace!

It is not a result but a process, also known as the positioning association method, which is a way for Muggles to train their memory.

This method of memory can be traced back to ancient Greece. At that time, a poet named Simonides went to a banquet in the palace. During the banquet, the banquet hall suddenly collapsed and many people were buried under the ruins. Simonides survived because he happened to walk out of the banquet hall.

While carrying out the rescue, Simonides found that he had memorized the positions where most of the guests at the banquet stood, and was able to identify who the guests were under the ruins based on these positions.

When Simonides was recalling, he found that he could not only remember the guests, but he could even recall more details, including their clothing and even some of the finer details of their clothing.

He keenly realized that this was a very useful method of memory. Later, through deliberate training and summary, he came up with a set of effective memory methods and named it the Memory Palace.

Sainz took a comprehensive look at this approach after being exposed to it.

After learning about it, he said that this method is indeed an effective way of memory for Muggles and is indeed very practical, but it is useless to him and is just a drop in the bucket compared to what he wants to do.

After truly understanding it, he discovered that Dumbledore's use of the Pensieve to "play back memories" was, in a sense, the most advanced version of the "Muggle Memory Palace."

The ideal state of a memory palace is to be able to recall memories, but in reality that is impossible.

But what Sai wants to do is not just remember one or two things, not ten or eight things, or even a hundred or eighty things. He greedily wants to remember all the knowledge he can collect.

Simply put, what he wants is a photographic memory!

Even going a step further, you won’t forget even if you just look at it!

Now he has already crossed out the word that he had originally listed on his to-do list!

Since the pretentious name "Memory Palace" has another meaning, the technology developed by Sai in the future cannot be called this name.

All the fancy things are due to lack of strength!

Sai decided to give his magic the simplest and most straightforward name from now on - Memory Bank!
