The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 632 Original Sin—Arrogance

"Please answer my question, Commissioner Link Foley."

Old Harris urged again.

He crossed his hands together, supporting his chin, with a serious expression.

The corners of Link's mouth rose even more.

He couldn't help laughing and said:

"Hahaha, I want to ask you a question. What would the world look like if Muggles annexed wizards and completely absorbed all the magical technologies currently mastered by wizards?"

The audience was silent.

No one answered Link's question at all.

On the contrary, everyone looked at Link with more and more hatred.

Although wizards and Muggles are currently safe, overall, they are in a hostile state.

Therefore, the question Link just asked is an absolutely taboo topic among high-level wizards.

Many people may have already imagined in their minds the scenario of wizards being defeated and completely assimilated or enslaved by Muggles.

But no wizard would dare to bring up this topic openly on such an occasion!

This is outrageous!

Be timid before fighting!

But Link didn't care. When no one answered, he continued:

"Muggles who have fully absorbed magic technology will enter a new era. Magic will be integrated into every corner of Muggle life within a hundred years. This includes using space magic for more efficient and low-cost logistics, resulting in The cost of goods is reduced, or they are used in various industries such as tourism. The existence of magic potions will greatly increase the average life span of Muggles. Alchemy will be integrated with existing Muggle technology, and a new round of technology will The outbreak is about to begin, and all kinds of incredible and wonderful technologies that everyone has never dreamed of will be frequently developed, changing the original appearance of the world.

This may directly bring the Muggle society as a whole into an era of high welfare, relying on the increase in productivity brought by magic to realize the utopia in the minds of many Muggles.

Of course, it may also cause more conflicts.

Even started World War III.

These are all uncertain.

But the only thing I can foresee is that if the "Noah's Ark" technology currently mastered by Sky City is acquired by Muggles, then with their current technological level that can enter space and even land on the moon, they will quickly change from "Noah's Ark" to "Noah's Ark". The experience and skills absorbed into Ya'ark's technology have made up for a large number of shortcomings in their aerospace technology.

In this case, I am afraid they will be able to realize the fantasies of everyone here within a hundred years.

Heading to the stars and the sea, right? "

"Are you finished?"

Almost as soon as Link finished speaking, Old Harris' gloomy voice rang out.

At this moment, Old Harris looked ferocious, his eyes were filled with scarlet bloodshot eyes, and his body was trembling slightly.

He seemed angry, but also seemed to be frightened by the scene Link described.

The group of representatives from the French Ministry of Magic sitting on his right also looked similar.

Although Link did not say any detailed description of the wizard's tragic future, this is precisely the cruelest thing.

Because according to Link's description, the civilization of wizards will die out and be completely assimilated by Muggles. From now on, the word wizard will no longer have any mysterious attributes, and will become similar to ordinary professions such as masons and carpenters. Just as ordinary and humble, there is no need to describe it.

"You're alarmist!"

The French Minister of Magic roared hysterically, "You deserve to die!"

"That's right! Link Foley, go to hell!"

"Mr. Harris, please sentence this traitor to death!"

"He's a Muggle spy!"

"kill him!"

……

The whole restaurant was in chaos.

Each of the gentle wizards who were originally in high positions were roaring with red faces as if they were crazy.

If it weren't for the fact that old Harris hadn't spoken yet, they would have jumped on it long ago.

However, as Link raised his finger again, all the noise suddenly stopped again.

Under the influence of the air pressure field, all the officials fell to the ground one after another, clutching their chests and struggling and flopping like fish thrown ashore.

"How stupid."

Link sighed and turned to look at Old Harris, "Mr. Harris, Muggles are naturally scary after they have obtained wizards' magical technology, but what if you think about it the other way around? What if wizards mastered Muggles? Technology, then with the things I just described, will the protagonist become a wizard?"

The French Minister of Magic, who was still struggling, suddenly stopped his movements when he heard this.

He looked at Link in disbelief, his eyes full of shock.

Even the old Harris in the main seat appeared temporarily sluggish.

Yes, what if wizards annexed Muggle technology?

How much of an improvement would this bring to wizarding society?

The most important thing is whether Sky City, which they have developed for centuries to reach its current level, can usher in a wave of technological breakthroughs in the next few decades, or even complete it within their lifetimes. The dream of our ancestors?

When thinking of that scene, Old Harris' breathing became rapid even though he was not suppressed by the pressure field.

He suppressed his longing for the fantasy scene in his heart and tried his best to speak in a calm voice:

"Link Foley, do you want to encourage us to go to war with the Muggles? Do you know what a huge disaster it will cause if you do that?"

Old Harris's words also awakened the French Minister of Magic from his previous fantasy.

Instead of calming him down, this made him even more frightened.

He had experienced that battle personally.

In that shocking battle between the Muggles, the power and cruelty displayed by the Muggles left a huge psychological shadow on the wizards who witnessed it.

Especially the two weapons they launched in the Neon Kingdom at the end.

If a war actually breaks out, both wizards and Muggles will probably perish, right?

After all, this is war, a war to the death, a war to the death!

Link waved his hand to remove the air pressure field exerted on these men.

If it is not lifted, these people will probably be suffocated to death.

Facing the hateful eyes of everyone after they recovered, he helplessly shook his head and said:

"Why are you so straight-minded and never able to turn around? Is it because you have lived in such a small circle for a long time that your thinking has become rigid? Indeed, the only way for Muggles to obtain magic is through war. After all, magic talent is a natural fortress. If they want magic, they must use the hands of wizards.

But Muggle technology does not have that kind of fundamental barrier that cannot be broken without war!

What is Veritaserum used for?

What are Apparition, Legilimency, Imperius Curse, and Polyjuice Potion used for? "

"You mean, you want us to steal..."

The French Minister of Magic spoke slowly, his voice trembling, "How dare you let us steal from lowly Muggles? Where do you put the nobility of wizards? You rebel!"

"Forehead……"

Looking at the other party's appearance, Newland, who was standing behind Link, opened his mouth in surprise.

Like Link, he has a very deep understanding of Muggle society, so he does not have too much admiration for this city in the sky that wizards believe in.

It is even more incomprehensible that the French Minister of Magic would have this reaction at this moment.

No, not just the French Minister of Magic.

The representatives of the French Ministry of Magic, as well as Old Harris in the chair, all looked furious at this time.

In terms of anger level alone, it was even more intense than when Link's words were interpreted as a war against Muggles.

What brain circuit is this?

You can get what you want at a lower cost.

What's wrong with that?

Newland looked at Link.

This is his instinctive reaction.

Whenever he encountered something he couldn't understand, Link could always give him some inspiration.

Sometimes it's a sentence, sometimes it's an expression.

But this time, Link's face was filled with deep helplessness and ridicule.

"Greed is the deepest original sin of Muggles," Link said softly, "but wizards' sin is arrogance."

Newland's body trembled.

He thought he understood.

Why are these great wizards so angry?

Of course it's arrogance.

In ancient times, wizards were worshiped by Muggles as gods.

Although this kind of treatment is no longer available now.

But the wizards' pride as 'gods' still remains.

So they feel it is a great humiliation to steal, or even lower their heads to learn from their former servants?

Newland didn't know how to evaluate these people.

He shook his head, and the same mocking sneer as Link's appeared on his lips.

"That's enough, no more discussion on this topic."

Old Harris suddenly said expressionlessly, "The dinner time is almost over. Everyone, please go back for a lunch break. There is a formal negotiation meeting to be held in the afternoon."

After saying that, Old Harris stood up and left the restaurant with the support of Iyetta.

The French Ministry of Magic delegation saw this and didn't stop at all, they all walked away.

When they walked past Link, many people were still sneering at Link.

Especially the French Minister of Magic.

The hatred and contempt for Link in his eyes was almost undisguised.

In their view, the so-called formal meeting afterwards was actually no longer necessary.

Link's arrogant speech just now had already completely angered Old Harris, who was presiding over the meeting.

In this case, their victory in the conference negotiations is almost a certainty.

In the face of these malicious intentions, Link and Dumbledore always had a faint smile on their faces, without any change.

After everyone left and the entire restaurant became completely quiet.

Dumbledore then looked at Link helplessly and said:

"Actually, Sky City is not as bad as you say, right?"

"Of course, especially the space part of the technology, I'm very interested."

"Then it's over, old Harris, and even the residents living in this sky city, I'm afraid it will suffer."

Dumbledore said with a complicated expression.

Old Harris and representatives from the French Ministry of Magic may feel that what Link just said was nonsense.

But in fact, Dumbledore knew very well that this was Link's true expression.

Link, the pair of alchemist brothers and sisters under his command had already begun to do so.

And now Link has set his sights on Sky City's technology.

It goes without saying what consequences this will have.

As for the upcoming meeting.

The outcome of the negotiation meeting has indeed been determined long ago.

However, this result was completely different from what the French delegation imagined.

"Hehehe, you stupid person."
