#162 - The Dangers of Overclocking Your Thinking
Roger didn't introduce Nicolas Flamel much.
He just let Ollivander know that the child in front of him was Nicolas Flamel, and that was enough.
With Nicolas Flamel's reputation, knowledgeable people couldn't possibly not recognize him.
Even Ollivander, who could be considered a professional in the related industry, might know Nicolas Flamel better than he did.
At least, when he learned that Nicolas Flamel would also be involved in this plan, Ollivander was quite happy.
Didn't want to share the honor of creating a new and powerful wand for the entire wizarding community?
Ollivander was also a normal person, and of course he had similar ideas.
But Ollivander quickly gave up.
He found that his energy couldn't keep up with Roger's experimental progress!
Damn it, doesn't this person need to sleep?!
Ollivander felt it was good to have someone to share the burden.
But in less than a day, Ollivander discovered—it wasn't right.
"Don't you need to sleep either?" After various complex experiments, a physically and mentally exhausted Ollivander looked at the "Nicolas Flamel" beside him.
"I do, but as an alchemist, I naturally have some means to stay energetic when necessary."
As creative workers, they all know how rare "inspiration" and "state" are. It's like the enlightenment mentioned in the East. Sometimes, if you miss it once, you don't know when you'll encounter it again.
So Nicolas Flamel naturally had some extraordinary means to prevent himself from missing those rare states.
Extend it as much as possible until it is exhausted.
Of course, this also causes some damage to the body.
Nicolas Flamel had basically stopped using it in the past two or three hundred years. His old body could no longer withstand the torment.
But now it's different.
With Roger here, and Dumbledore's Phoenix Tears.
As long as it wasn't an instant death, even if it was an instant death, as long as the soul wasn't instantly destroyed, these two could pull him back!
Now Nicolas Flamel is not flustered because someone is backing him up, and he can now use all kinds of radical methods that he didn't dare to use before.
What forbidden potions, forbidden alchemy items, and extremely harmful magic.
Use them, use them all!
Nicolas Flamel hadn't felt his mind running so smoothly and quickly for hundreds of years.
Even his youngest and most peak period was far inferior to his current self!
"This . . ."
Ollivander stopped talking.
But Roger had already read the emotion in his eyes.
"Damn, there's a cheat!"
But Ollivander could only be envious of this.
On the one hand, he is now in Diagon Alley, not at Hogwarts.
He is only communicating with this side about how to improve the new wand through virtual reality projection.
On the other hand, even if he was here, with his friendship with Dumbledore, he wouldn't be close enough to have Dumbledore spend time every day using magic to condition his body and restore his state.
"This won't work, Roger, you can't continue like this!"
Nicolas Flamel felt that his current state was good.
In this wizarding world, there is no systematic method of cultivating the mind. Everyone is naturally using the changes in the world and interpersonal relationships to hone their mentality.
So very few people have a 'inhuman' mentality similar to Supreme Forgetfulness. Everyone is human and has their own joys, sorrows, and joys.
Nicolas Flamel is the same. His elixir of life can only make him live forever, but it cannot make him not age.
Decades ago, this old man in his six hundred years was so old that even picking up a book with his hands was difficult.
This extremely long period of low-quality life was a great mental torment for Nicolas Flamel himself.
In the original destiny, his choice not to continue making the elixir of life may not have been without this aspect of the reason.
Since returning to youth, Nicolas Flamel's mentality seems to have become younger, as if it had "bottomed out."
He has great enthusiasm for all kinds of things, so even if Roger drags him and himself to work more than 300 hours a day in accelerated thinking, he doesn't feel tired.
But—
Hogwarts, Headmaster's Office.
Dumbledore looked at Roger very seriously: "Roger, everyone's ability to withstand is different."
"Bearing high-intensity accelerated thinking for a long time has a great impact on people. You can withstand it,
It doesn't mean that others can bear it!"
Last school year, Roger recruited a group of outstanding graduates from the seventh grade of Hogwarts and joined his Subspace Magic Liability Limited Company, responsible for expanding the world content of his virtual reality.
Roger offered extremely generous recruitment conditions, but the working environment was also difficult.
In a sense, that working environment is a bit close to a start-up company.
Now that several months have passed, the original applicants have already left one-third during the training phase—even if the daily mental acceleration rate of those employees is less than one-third of Roger's normal state, there are still many people who can't bear it.
"I am not opposed to what you are doing now, but please consider Nicolas Flamel's current mental state. I don't think this is a good thing."
After a long period of contact with Roger, Dumbledore found that although Roger was a seer, he sometimes really didn't observe the future much.
Except for some very important things, and life-and-death issues, he would look at the 'reference answer'.
Dumbledore also asked Roger about this issue. Roger's answer to him at the time was 'Fate is at my feet, the so-called prophecy will only bind my possibilities, it is enough to have the right direction, there is no need to look at everything'.
"I understand what you mean, but I don't think there is any problem here," Roger said, looking at Dumbledore, who had invited him to talk alone.
Dumbledore sighed softly and shook his head: "If you use your eternal life theory, the mental lifespan of human beings has a limit."
"Even if your accelerated thinking does not damage organs such as the brain and soul, it is impossible for them not to be affected after spending so much perceived time."
"They have not embarked on the road of immortality. Those with fragile hearts, if they endure too much accelerated thinking,
It is possible for the mind to be annihilated."
Dumbledore believed that Roger was also very clear about this. Roger's company employees would have regular mental state monitoring as evidence.
But he did not conduct a mental state test on Nicolas Flamel.
"You need to know that he wanted to embrace death not long ago. Now that he has just decided to be reborn, you will take him to experience this exciting thing. Aren't you afraid of going too far and going to extremes?"
Nicolas Flamel was Dumbledore's predecessor, and the two were also close friends.
When Dumbledore was young, Nicolas Flamel had given him a lot of help.
So Dumbledore couldn't let some bad signs go unchecked.
"I think you are a little worried, Headmaster Dumbledore," Roger believed that this powerful wizard who was already very old in mind did not understand the key to the path of immortality.
"If you want to prevent the mind from going to annihilation, it is very simple, and it is extremely difficult."
"The simple thing is that there is a method that can be explained in one sentence to avoid the worst results."
"Stay expectant."
"It is precisely because there is no longer a sense of expectation for everything in this world that people will commit suicide."
"The things you care about are no longer there, the things you want to get have already been obtained, or, like the elderly,
Thinking, senses, and various other physical functions have degenerated to the point where even living is a torment."
"People's minds will develop in the direction of annihilation."
After a pause, Roger continued: "The difficulty lies in the fact that it is very difficult to maintain this sense of expectation all the time."
"Human beings are more inclined to emotional perception. When they feel emotionally tired, they will naturally lose their sense of expectation."
"But now—"
Roger raised his hand, and various virtual images appeared around him.
Virtual reality, the second magic power, three-dimensional method, thoughts and dreams, starry sky, Muggles and wizards, the passage of time, the ascension of life . . .
"I think that at least for the next few hundred years, Nicolas Flamel will not feel bored."
Hundreds of years later?
If in these hundreds of years, Nicolas Flamel has not had the slightest idea of trying to walk the path of immortality.
That means he has no intention of truly living forever. He just wants to live a little longer and enjoy the beauty of time.
He doesn't object to 'resting' for a while when he's tired.
Since the person involved doesn't have this idea, there is no need for others to force him to stay.
