Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity

“Rita Skeeter, this matter is special. There's no room for your 'improvisation'. Complete the task properly and don't disappoint me.”

“Yes,” Rita Skeeter said, respectfully lowering her head.

Her shoulder-length golden curls were meticulously styled, and she wore a smart business suit, showing no hint of her usual mocking and annoying demeanor.

Some people, who seem very annoying, often do well because they are extremely good at flattering superiors and being arrogant to subordinates.

To those who hold their livelihood in their hands, they will try every means to flatter and fawn, never revealing the other side of their personality.

Rita Skeeter is a special correspondent for the Daily Prophet. Strictly speaking, she is not a staff member, but if she offends these big shots in the news industry, a single word can ensure that her articles will not be accepted by any British wizarding media.

She has always been cautious about things that could truly harm her.

She is very familiar with this place. The big news in the wizarding world is basically focused on politics and those powerful wizards.

Looking around, there were also many familiar faces in the crowd, reporters from various newspapers,

and wizards of minor renown. Clearly, they were like her,

either invited or voluntarily coming to attend this 'press conference'.

Rita Skeeter pushed up her gemstone-encrusted glasses, her eyes darting around, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She quietly pulled out her self-writing quill from her bosom and hurried towards a refined-looking wizard.

She likes wizards with this kind of refined temperament. When facing such wizards, even if she publishes some irrelevant gossip and fabricates some eye-catching things, there will be no serious consequences.

Rita Skeeter doesn't understand the principle of 'a gentleman can be deceived by principle', but she is an expert in this.

This press conference is an important occasion for Roger Virgil, the Director of the Virtual Reality Technology Management Office, who is a highly renowned prophet in Britain today, to announce his new achievements to the public.

As a journalist, she had already sensed the extraordinary nature of it from some rumors.

Rita Skeeter was sure that if she dared to mess around in this situation, let alone her job, her life would probably be in danger.

But she is also restless, wanting to seize every opportunity to make a profit for herself.

So—.

“Hello, I am Rita Skeeter, a special correspondent for the Daily Prophet.”

“Are you also here to attend the press conference?” Rita Skeeter asked, approaching with a seemingly friendly smile.

There's no way to stir up trouble at the press conference, but she felt that she should be able to squeeze some interesting news out of the people attending the meeting.

There are no journalistic principles in the wizarding world. Here, there is no pursuit of reporting truthfully.

As long as there is contact, she has ways to fabricate some things that will 'shock' people.

“Ah?”

“Yes.” The refined wizard looked slightly stunned at Rita Skeeter's sudden approach.

“May I ask your name is—.”

“Tom,” the wizard said after a moment of silence.

This name sounds very common. If you shout it on the street, several people might turn around.

Rita Skeeter looked at his refined appearance and slightly recalled his name, but couldn't find a corresponding person in her memory.

He's probably an unknown fellow.

But not just anyone can come to the Seer's press conference, so this is probably a relative of some big shot.

Although she had a guess in her mind, since the other party did not directly state his surname, Rita Skeeter did not rashly ask.

You have to eat one bite at a time, and trust has to be earned bit by bit. She still has this basic professional quality.

“Tom, what do you think of what will be announced at this press conference?” Rita Skeeter did not stop.

Instead, she walked towards the elevator with the wizard Tom, asking in a casual tone along the way.

“I heard that this time it seems like they are going to create something very extraordinary?” She tried to guide the topic.

Although Rita Skeeter can unscrupulously fabricate some things without professional ethics,

if possible,

she still wants some 'truth'.

After all, if false lies are investigated, it is easy to find flaws in them.

But if some big shot really says something outrageous and she catches it, it's not just the news fee.

If you're lucky, some secrets can last a lifetime!

Of course, this requires a sustainable approach. If you push people too hard, you won't get any benefits yourself.

Rita Skeeter is a measured person and knows what to do if she really has a chance.

“Large-scale interactive virtual reality,” the wizard Tom murmured.

“It's indeed very extraordinary.”

“If there are no accidents, this world will soon undergo earth-shattering changes.”

He doesn't know about the Second Magic, but just a super-large-scale, high-density information exchange network,

is terrifying enough in itself.

Not to mention the thought acceleration technology in it.

If used well, it would be like extending the peak of human thought by a factor of two.

Whether it's those scientists or those wizards.

The vast majority of them made their greatest achievements in their youth.

The human body and mind will begin to decline after reaching middle age.

This is unavoidable.

Roger's technology will bring a revolution, and everyone who attends the press conference agrees with this.

It's just that everyone has different opinions on what direction the revolution will take and what it will become.

Apart from the people in the news industry, most of the wizards who came to attend this press conference wanted to get the answers they expected from Roger, this prophet.

Although Voldemort was defeated more than a decade ago, as the saying goes.

It is easy to break a thief in the mountains, but it is difficult to break a thief in the heart.

Any wizard who isn't blind can see the trend of Muggles rising strongly.

Under the strong sense of crisis, some thoughts have not been completely extinguished.

In the original destiny, Voldemort responded to every call after his comeback, instead of becoming a rat crossing the street, which fully illustrates the situation!

And now, those who hold such thoughts seem to see hope!
