Hogwarts is divided into four houses, which, in a way, are a microcosm of the magical world.

The point of leverage and the ultimate scope of diffusion will determine the position she may reach in the future.

If Grindelwald, Dumbledore, and Riddle's ideologies were about elite-led change, then Elliana's logic and method from the beginning was to initiate a bottom-up wave—and from the current situation, at least within Hogwarts, she is almost successful, with only the last piece of the academic sanctuary remaining untouched.

Even if he doesn't understand Elliana's overall plan, Grindelwald knows exactly where the girl needs the last piece of the puzzle.

Ravenclaw, the area the third-generation Dark Lord had been unable to conquer last year.

However, compared to the other houses, the way Elliana wants to enter here and gain recognition is much more complicated. She can't bring it up herself, or even actively express her demands. She needs a little help.

Of course, he alone might not be able to deliver the crucial blow.

Grindelwald paused for a few seconds, glancing meaningfully at the Muggle scholar standing next to him.

"Professor Alexei, I've finished speaking. What are your thoughts?"

"Eh, me?"

Alexei was taken aback, a hint of restraint appearing on his face.

"If you insist... um... as an observer who has never been in contact with the magical world, I... let me think..."

Unlike the other Hogwarts professors present, as a top researcher from the former Soviet Union's Institute of Nuclear Physics, he had personally witnessed Elliana in her "Dark Lord form" and Grindelwald in his "Dark Lord form."

Whether it was the wizarding legion hidden in the shadows somewhere in the world, the "Hyperion" hovering above Hogwarts Castle, or Gringotts Wizarding Bank, which unobtrusively manipulated the economic lifeline of mankind... these terrible forces that could subvert human civilization were by no means something that an ordinary school, teaching a group of children aged 11 to 18, could possess.

Even if it was a school in the magical world, there was no such possibility.

From the moment he arrived at Hogwarts and saw "Theresa Apocalypse" in the Great Hall, and received Professor "Otto Apocalypse's" warning, the poor Alexei immediately realized this very clearly.

Perhaps the legendary, righteous Hogwarts really existed, but it was only a haven in the magical world.

In the cruel real world, it was not the compassion of the human wizarding civilization that was saving insignificant Muggles like them, but a group of Dark Lord forces lurking in the darkness, waiting to subvert the entire world.

Hogwarts Castle was undoubtedly the Dark Lord's castle in that fairy tale.

And even more deadly...

His most precious treasure, the little angel God had given him, Danilova, had been sent here by his own hand.

But now that things had come to this, there was only one answer left for him—

"Although I only met Miss Kaslana today, I can understand her excellence from your words..."

Alexei took a deep breath, carefully considering his words, and said softly.

"In today's cutting-edge physics, there is a very interesting phenomenon: when we obtain a measurement value of a mechanical quantity, the corresponding state is the state in which the particle is located. However, after the particle is observed, it changes from the original superposition state to a certain eigenstate, and a collapse occurs—in short, observation causes the quantum state to collapse."

Um... Explain as much as possible with some "Muggle", "profound", and "ambiguous" descriptions?

While observing the surrounding professors, Alexei recalled the order Professor "Otto Apocalypse" had whispered in his ear earlier. Although he didn't understand why he had to do this, it wasn't particularly difficult for him.

As expected, just like when he described the "task" to "Otto Apocalypse" this afternoon.

Along with Alexei's voice, almost all the wizards present showed a similar look of confusion in their eyes. Lacking basic scientific knowledge, not to mention these wizards in the magical world, even the newcomers in the research institute would be confused.

Except for... Elliana Kaslana!

Alexei glanced at the girl sitting in the shadows, and the sense of superiority that had just emerged in his heart instantly dissipated.

As the Deputy Director of the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, Alexei knew very well the normal expression people should show when facing unknown content for the first time, and the reaction that might appear on the faces of people who understood what he was saying.

Unconsciously, Elliana's posture had changed from a well-behaved sitting posture to gently holding her cheek.

Judging from the light in the girl's eyes, it was clear that she knew what he was talking about—at least she had been exposed to the extremely rare term "quantum state". Even without considering the girl's age, this was already very scary.

If the information that the KGB sent back from the United States was generally correct, then this should still be the most cutting-edge theory today.

You know, even in the non-magical world, the number of scholars who have begun to study quantum state-related theories and understand this new concept should not exceed two hundred... Wait, the description on that task sheet, could it be?!

Just then, Alexei's eyes suddenly froze.

He suddenly remembered the "task parchment" he had briefly seen for ten seconds in Grindelwald's hand—next to the list of "task requirements" they had proposed, there was also a row of strange descriptions annotated, listing many seemingly nonsensical contents such as "Advanced Lumos Optimization", "Delayed Transfiguration", and "Magical Microscopic Perception".

Now that he thought about it carefully, just like the premise of translating a language... if you want to translate scientific terms...

"Professor Alexei, as far as I know, quantum mechanics does not involve consciousness."

Elliana looked at Alexei with a smile, and said softly in a naive tone, as if a student was asking a question.

"The disturbance caused by the observation behavior will inevitably change the state of the observed object, so it is impossible to achieve completely accurate measurement, and two non-commutative mechanical quantities cannot be arbitrarily precise at the same time, the product of the uncertainties of two non-commutative quantities..."

The girl's voice suddenly stopped, looking at the middle-aged man with a look of surprise and uncertainty not far away with a smile that was not a smile.

As an ordinary graduate in quantitative economics, she was already very good at remembering a little bit of Heisenberg's theory. As for the rest, as long as her smile remained unchanged, it could be regarded as a test.

"... is always greater than half of the reduced Planck constant."

Alexei subconsciously continued, and then quickly reacted, with a look of horror in his eyes.

For him, these were just the most basic theories, but this was only for him. In this era when the Cold War had just ended, this knowledge involving cutting-edge German physics was almost limited to a very small number of people.

You know, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle was placed together with his file on nuclear physics.

"Oh, so that's how it is. The teacher didn't talk about it when I was in school."

Elliana nodded with a naive look, revealing a look of sudden realization, and smiled casually at the somewhat dazed professors around her to explain, "I learned this little knowledge in a hobby class when I was in elementary school in the Muggle world. There are many similar knowledge in Muggle schools, and many of them are quite difficult to remember... Right, Mr. Alexei."

"Oh. Elementary school... hobby class... um... you're right..."

Alexei's mouth twitched, and he nodded silently, continuing to speak with some self-closure.

"In short, what I mean is, if we regard the students of Hogwarts as electrons, then the Sorting Hat is the photon that affects them during observation—since Miss Kaslana has shown uncertain possibilities, then it is best not to stifle this rare possibility and let her freely transform in various houses..."

Noticing Elliana's suddenly raised eyebrows, the middle-aged man subconsciously bit his tongue and looked at the surrounding professors.

"Uh... did you understand what I just said?"

"Very, insightful—I understand what you mean."

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, then took a deep look at Elliana, turned his head to look at the professors around him.

"Ravenclaw, I think we can let Miss Kaslana try it, what do you think?"

Following Dumbledore's hint, the professors present suddenly realized that in Hogwarts, regarding Ravenclaw, there was actually a very simple and easy-to-understand trait that people were not so willing to accept.

Whenever something is incomprehensible and feels powerful, throwing it into Ravenclaw usually doesn't have too many problems.
