Chapter 1761 A War Without Winners (Two Hundred and Eleven)

There are still many things in Avalon that Albert needs to take care of himself. He actually never expects everyone to be willing to seriously understand the Muggle stuff.

You mean those wizards from Muggle families?

Their situation is not much better. At the age of eleven, they went to Hogwarts to study. Maybe their understanding of the Muggle world is far better than that of wizards in the magical world, but that's it.

They have never received a complete Muggle education, and their understanding of many things is only half-understanding. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are semi-illiterate.

Therefore, if you want the two towering water towers to be put into normal use, Albert can only connect the water pipes to everyone himself. If he really dares to throw this seemingly simple job to others, God knows what will happen next.

In the end, it is likely that he will have to clean up this mess.

Albert hates encountering that kind of situation.

If he follows his original plan, he should wait until the building facilities on the Avalon side are more complete, and then advance in an orderly manner through the pre-prepared pipelines. This is much easier than the current hasty mess, and it is less likely to cause mistakes.

But now that it is like this, what else can be said?

He can only do it himself.

However, considering the problem of future maintenance, he is still willing to take Truman, an "older student" who is willing to learn something, and explain the various problems above to him in detail.

"Okay, this should be about it."

Albert turned on the valve, looked at the clear well water flowing out of the faucet, nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Shanna who was still recording next to him and asked, "Just write down those precautions."

"I have written it down." Shanna handed the parchment directly to Albert and said, "See if there is anything you need to add."

Albert took it and looked at it, and found that Shanna basically wrote down all the key points he had said before.

"That's enough. There's no point in writing too much." Albert returned the parchment to Sana and said, "If the water pipe breaks in the future, just repair it according to this draft."

"What's the matter?"

When he looked up, he noticed Truman's expression of wanting to speak but not being able to.

"Ask now if you have any questions."

"Is this thing easy to break?" Truman asked puzzled.

"I don't know, but you'd better not expect it to be problem-free." Albert looked into Truman's eyes and said calmly, "Muggles think this plastic pipe can be used for fifty years, but I think that's just their nonsense. It's good to be able to use it for twenty years, and it has to be maintained by someone."

Albert mentioned it now because he didn't want the water pipe to break one day, and he didn't want to have to repair it himself when the repair spell couldn't fix it.

No, it should be said that such a situation will definitely happen, and he is more confident that even Truman will probably mess it up.

It is normal for wizards who have no experience in this area to mess up, so what Albert can do is to let the other party practice with extra materials first, so that at least maintenance will not be too chaotic after gaining experience.

Who made Truman decide to stay and help?

The salary of this job is not low, but it is not as easy as he imagined. Most of the time, it requires a generalist who can handle various problems.

Fortunately, Truman obviously realized this and was also learning things very seriously.

After a few days of tinkering, the water pipes of the entire Avalon have basically been laid, and even the pools in the park have begun to spray water. Many people noticed this change. In their spare time, they gathered around the fountain, cleaned the pool spontaneously, and used it as a place to rest and relax.

What amazed Albert was that this fountain did not use Muggle technology, because the fountain technology in the magic world was even more mature than he expected, which made Albert always feel inexplicably inconsistent.

If wizards are willing to spend time to study, life in the entire magical world will definitely become better. It is unlikely that pumping water from a well will be a difficult task, but...

The magic in this world seems to have stagnated. Many magics are gradually forgotten by people because they are not applicable or have not been used for a long time.

This is a very bad omen.

Of course, many people don't think so. For example, for the unlocking spell, they use the Alaho Opening, not the "Open Door" or the earlier "Open Sesame".

And this requires someone to gradually advance. Whether it is Dumbledore in the past or Albert now, they are the best candidates.

But Albert did not study those spells in particular, not only because he had been exposed to magic for too short a time, but also because he had always relied on the panel to develop some bad habits.

On the other hand, he is really busy, and using magic to create spells is very dangerous and uncertain, and it is not urgent at all. At least it takes time for Albert to be free to study, and this is indeed not his area of ​​expertise.

Yes, this is really ridiculous.

To some extent, Albert is not an excellent wizard at all.

His creativity is actually very poor.

The main reason is that the learning methods of two lifetimes have solidified his thinking mode and lack of wild imagination and creativity.

This is actually quite helpless.

Whether it is the school in the previous life or the current Hogwarts, they are just training a group of tool people.

The former is a gear that can fit the operation of society, while the latter is to cultivate tools that can use magic.

However, magic requires creativity, just like inventors, who need to ignite the spark of inspiration to keep moving forward. It is actually difficult to cultivate a true genius without a completely inflexible teaching method.

This method directly raises the lower limit, but also lowers the upper limit.

In Albert's words, it is to create a group of mediocre people. The stability of society requires mediocre people, but the progress of society requires people born from geniuses and lunatics to move forward.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm wondering if I should create a pumping spell to solve the water storage problem of the water tower." Albert muttered as he looked at the towering water tower.

"This is a good idea. If you can use magic, you don't have to use electrical appliances. To be honest, it's strange that those things appear in the wizard village, and it's not easy to repair them if they break down."

Truman, who has decided not to return to work at the Ministry of Magic, has been learning various things from Albert recently.

It would be best if we could use magic to solve the trivialities of life, but that is really difficult to do. Even if we want to complete it, it takes a lot of time to invent the matching spells and magic props.

Unfortunately, everything is too rushed.

"Forget it, just use it first, and as for the future, we'll talk about it later!"

Truman was stunned by Albert's words.
