The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Si Gefen knew that because of his status, many people in the Ministry of Magic were dissatisfied with him.

Especially at this critical moment, his situation as a 'former Upper Realm person' would inevitably become more embarrassing.

But he didn't have any other thoughts, he just hated those people staring at him with all kinds of suspicious eyes.

Taking a deep breath, Si Gefen raised his head and recalled:

"You all know that I have lived in the family manor since I was a child. Compared to the urban area we now extend, the family manor I live in is actually much more pure. There is no advanced technology there, and there is no People in strange clothes are even less entertaining.

The entire manor is actually similar to Hogwarts. It covers a huge area, has an exclusive jungle hunting ground, and a huge artificial lake.

Of course, the main building of the manor is not a stone castle, but an ordinary palace.And because the population is not large, it looks very empty inside.

What I remember most clearly is how clean it was.

Every corner of the manor is equipped with self-cleaning magic, keeping it spotlessly new at all times.

The people walking around inside were all wearing clean white robes, their bodies were extremely clean, and even their hair was loose and dry.

We learn all kinds of knowledge there every day, whether it is swordsmanship, magic or doctrine, they are all required courses for us.

But at the same time, it was extremely dirty.

The people who live there have dark hearts.

They fight each other in the manor. Although they don't conflict openly, they often deliberately murder others or even take their lives because of some very small moments.

My father has never cared about this kind of thing.

He seemed to enjoy seeing us compete, even if that competition sometimes resulted in tragic death.

But I can understand him.

After all, there are too many of his descendants and people with inheritance rights.

If they don't compete with each other, I guess he really doesn't know how to choose. "

Everyone listened to Si Gefen's story with great interest. There were secret stories about the elder family of the International Federation of Wizards, which was very attractive to them.

Even Link nodded repeatedly.

It's just that he only pays attention to the way Si Gefen's family raises its descendants.

Judging from Si Gefen's description, although most ordinary residents and a small number of nobles in Sky City have gradually become 'cyberpunk', or immersed in the happy life of rapid technological development.

But the top families in Sky City still maintain the same ancient training methods as the noble wizard families outside.

That is to say, you can keep your children at home and educate them personally, or you can hire tutors to provide closed education.

This kind of education method can prevent children from being harmed by the outside world to the greatest extent, and can also make children's thinking gradually develop in the direction they expect with the cooperation of parents and tutors.

But at the same time, there is also a chance that the child will be raised directly to be a fool or a lunatic with erroneous views.

The Black family has been pursuing this educational philosophy before.

It's a pity that I didn't know who listened to someone's deception later on, so I gave up my original educational philosophy and sent all my children to Hogwarts.

If he still maintained his original education method, Sirius wouldn't be so rebellious.

The group of people who lived with Si Gefen even lived a simpler life than the descendants of aristocratic wizards in the lower world, and received a more rigorous education, which was the most traditional way of education.

This is indeed necessary in Link's opinion.

Of course, this does not mean that Link agrees with the traditional and extreme education methods.

Rather, it is to say that in places like Sky City, where 'new trendy ideas' have reached extreme levels, it is indeed necessary to educate the upper class rulers in extreme traditions.

Because only in this way can the small society in Sky City find a balance between tradition and new trends.

Otherwise, once this balance is broken, there will be no need to occupy Sky City on the 1st to engage in "Sky City Deterrence".

I guess those crazy people in Sky City have already driven around in Sky City to cause trouble.

Newland obviously didn't think as much as Link thought. After hearing Si Gefen's words, he couldn't wait to ask:

"You mean you had many brothers and sisters? What about them now? Why have I only heard of the one named Iyeta? And she seems to be a peripheral member of the family, right? Logically speaking, she is not qualified to receive the same education as you. of."

After hearing this, everyone around looked at Si Gefen and became more curious.

They are in Sky City at this moment, and are slowly advancing towards the headquarters of the International Federation of Wizards in the central area of ​​Sky City.

The information Si Gefen provided them might be of great help to their next actions.

However, Si Gefen's expression suddenly became cold and he said calmly:

"Guess how I was chosen as the heir to the family before?"

As soon as he said this, Newland seemed to have thought of something and was so surprised that he couldn't speak. He almost put his hand into his mouth.

The rest of the people also looked weird.

Generally speaking, the impression of Si Gefen in their hearts was good, he was just and kind, and it could even be said that he was a little pedantic.

Otherwise, they would not have allowed such a 'celestial being' to sneak into the center of power of the Ministry of Magic of the United States.

It was precisely because of this that they really couldn't imagine that Si Gefen could do that kind of thing.

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't kill them all."

Aware of everyone's attention, Si Gefen said indifferently, "To be precise, they killed each other until the end, and they wanted to kill me. Then I fought back. You don't understand the inner feelings of those people at all. How gloomy. If one of them really becomes the elder of the International Federation of Wizards, I'm afraid that Sky City, no, wizards and Muggles all over the world will not have a good life!"

"Yes, you are right, I very much agree with what you are doing!"

Newland patted Si Gefen on the shoulder and said.

Others gathered around this time and comforted Si Gefen.

But the weird expressions on their faces still didn't dissipate.

This kind of character of Si Gefen is obviously not in line with Old Harris's expectations for the successor, otherwise he would not have driven Si Gefen out of Sky City later.

So why did Si Gefen become the designated heir of Old Harris?

Apart from the fact that all the other candidate heirs were dead, no one could think of a second reason.

As the only profiteer, Si Gefen said that he did not kill anyone, but everyone would definitely not believe it.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, due to Link's bias, there are not many truly clean and good people in the upper echelons of the Ministry of Magic in the country.

Putting Si Gefen in this group of people like this can even be said to be noble.

While Link and others were talking, the bright moon above everyone's heads once again opened a long and narrow gap.

From Link's perspective, it was like a lifeless eyeball suddenly had pupils, came to life, and was constantly watching the city below.

It's just that the eyeball that appeared in front of everyone projected downward not only the gaze, but also more members of the Sky City Defense Team wearing white robes.

This group of people rode aircraft and dispersed into small teams directly in space at extremely fast speeds, and dispersed into the Sky City in small teams.

Not only that.

There is actually an artificial river as a barrier between the inner city and the outer city of Sky City. There are usually bridges connecting the land routes, and special light channels in the sky.

But at this moment, the artificial river in front of Link and others suddenly erupted with a burst of dazzling light.

The water in the river rose rapidly and flew out of the river in an almost weird manner, forming a translucent protective layer around the inner city of Sky City.

And through the protective layer of continuously surging water, everyone can clearly see that all the buildings near the river outside the inner city are deforming. Not only are a large number of people in white robes pouring out of them, but the building itself is also gradually deforming. It turned into the appearance of the city defense turrets that were smashed by Link's control of the dragon.

"The outer walls of Sky City have been unfolded, which shows that we are now a real threat to the enemies in the International Federation of Wizards."

Si Gefen pointed at the huge wall of water that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Outer city wall?" Newland asked in a somewhat sinister tone, "If my memory is correct, we seem to have entered Sky City, right? How could anyone build the outer city wall in the city center? You must be confused, right? ?”

After hearing this, many people who were accompanying him turned their heads and looked over.

Although they recognized Si Gefen's character, it did not mean that they would completely believe what he just said.

After all, what Si Gefen said just now was really poorly worded and extremely unreasonable.

Si Gefen was not angry when he saw this, he just looked at Newland as if he were an idiot and said:

"Although I was locked up in the manor all day long when I was a child and never visited the Sky City in person, I still learned some about the history of the Sky City through books. Regarding this outer city wall, I first want to ask you something .

Do you think that Sky City was of such a scale from the beginning? "

Newland was a little annoyed by Si Gefen's gaze. Just when he was about to refute, Si Gefen said first:

"Of course this is impossible!

The sages who first founded Sky City, no matter how smart and great they were, their vision was limited due to the times.

When Sky City was founded, they never thought about developing Sky City into the super metropolis it is today. Their thoughts at that time were entirely on the "International Federation of Wizards" and they just regarded this place as an arrangement. It's just a 'dormitory' for your own small life!

Later, due to the war on the ground, more and more people wanted to live in Sky City, so they were unable to use magic to expand the Sky City for a total of two rounds.

The first round of expansion was the expansion of the original headquarters building of the International Federation of Wizards, turning it into the spectacular giant building it is today.

The second round of expansion expanded out of the current inner city area. This was also the last round of expansion carried out by the first generation of sages.

In this round of expansion, the forefathers not only considered people's livelihood issues, but also security issues.

So an 'outer wall' was set up in an open area on the edge of the town, and defensive facilities were erected within it.

Out of respect for the forefathers, subsequent Sky City rulers never changed this urban plan.Just make various modifications within the town to meet the needs of the residents. "

"Is your statement wrong?" Newlan frowned and asked, "According to your statement, what is going on where we are now? Isn't this part of Sky City?"

Nulan didn't speak when he heard this, he just looked at Nulan quietly with a mysterious smile on his face.

Link smiled and said:

"Strictly speaking, this place, what we call the outer city of Sky City, does not belong to Sky City. At least according to the official definition of the International Federation of Wizards, this is the case."

"But something is obviously wrong! It's obvious here..."

Nulan's words stopped suddenly, as if he suddenly thought of something, his expression turned ugly.

Si Gefen and Link have really made their words very clear.

The outer city is not actually recognized by the International Federation of Wizards as part of Sky City.

So what are the buildings built on top of the outer city area where they are now?

The answer is simple.

If it is not recognized, then it is an illegal construction.

This is something Newland is familiar with.

Because the place where he and his mother lived before was technically illegal.

Even Spinning Shuttle Alley itself should not exist.

There was only one factory in this place earlier, and the surrounding residential buildings were all built illegally and privately by workers to accommodate their families. The government has never really acknowledged the existence of Spun Shuttle Alley.

Of course, they did not go out of their way to criticize the behavior of the residents of Spinshuo Lane. Instead, they ignored the increasing number of illegal buildings here.

No, in fact it cannot be said that they are ignoring it, because they are actually secretly encouraging residents to build illegally in such places.

In order to prevent accidents from happening, they also hired a group of architects in the name of the factory to help everyone build houses.

From the government's perspective, there are so many benefits to doing this.

For example, the government does not need to be responsible for renovating environmental problems near the residential area of ​​Fansuo Lane, nor does it need to build any infrastructure for the residents of Fansuo Lane, such as hospitals, schools, police stations...

None of these things need to be configured for the spinning shuttle lane.

After all, this is an industrial area and no one should be allowed to live there.

And the residents of Fangsuo Lane did not dare to go to the government to ask for these things.

They fear that their only residential area will be demolished in the name of illegal construction.

The outer city area of ​​Sky City is probably in a similar situation.

It's just that Sky City has gone even further in this regard, because the special nature of Sky City prevents lower-class residents from building residential areas privately like the residents of Spinshuo Lane.

Therefore, they directly intervened in the construction of the outer city, expanded the space for the existence of the outer city, and made basic urban planning.

They even built a large number of complete underground houses for the outer city similar to those for the inner city, as well as outer defensive turrets.

Of course, these things do not exist to protect the lives of residents in outer cities.

The rulers of the inner city have greater intentions and conspiracies.
