[Comprehensive] The painting style of time travel is wrong

As we all know, magic and potions are not what many popular novels describe - just move your lips, wave a wand, a thought or a power that can be used at will by mere talent (Note 1).

Magic is equally learned, equally thought, and equally practiced, no different than studying science - and even magic, in my opinion, is a different kind of science!

The dialectical materialism of science may not be able to fully explain all the mysteries of magic for the time being, and the four-element theory (Note 2) that wizards regard as the basis of magic is also unable to explain many—especially physical phenomena in the microscopic field.

But this is not to say that magic is on the opposite side of science. It is the blind spots of science, the unknowable that cannot be understood, and the proof that wizards are born to be favored by heaven.

It is much less like some wizards claim that science is forever chasing magic's shadow in vain.

The difference between magic and science does not lie in who is nobler and who is more powerful or who holds the truth. The difference lies in the different angles of looking at the world and the different ways of understanding the world.

Anyone familiar with history should know:

Before there is no magic help, even the sages of the earth can only do nothing about the wildness and backwardness.

Before the birth of science, wizards could only rely on experience and luck to grope forward on the dark road.

Magic expands the vision of science, and technology reveals the mysteries hidden in the dark for us.

The world seen by magic and science alone is incomplete. By comparing the different perspectives in the eyes of magic and science, we can truly see the whole picture of the world for the first time!

It is because of each other that we can create what we are now.

——It may seem that we will never intersect, but we depend on each other. ——

This is the same as the symbol that Master Slytherin made for the coalition government - the double helix.

It symbolizes the contradiction and unity of magic and science, it symbolizes that we need to support each other, and it also symbolizes the inheritance and continuation of life!

We join hands so that people are no longer troubled by hunger; we join hands, the terminal illnesses in the past can be cured; we join hands, we have led mankind to start the steps towards the starry sky!

The group of space factories located at the Lagrange point bears witness to us, the forward base located on the moon is our medal, the leading colony located on Mars and the giant scientific research station on the orbit of Jupiter tell about our achievements—they are magic The common achievement with science is the merit and honor of all!

But we should not be content with that, let alone stop there.

When we look back, those incomparably brilliant achievements in history may not be worth mentioning now; when we look forward to the future, wouldn't the current glory be dust in the eyes of future generations?

We still have too many unknowns to explore, and too many questions to answer.

So far, we still haven't been able to figure out what principle the 630 nine "wizard fragments" in the blood give wizards the talent for magic. Why can't the "squibs" who also have these fragments use magic?

We also don't know what kind of magic power we speak of.

——Active high-energy particles?Unknown dark matter?High-dimensional folding interference phenomenon?Or something else we haven't thought of yet?

These questions, now countless wizards and scientists are trying to answer them in full cooperation.

The magic I invented - Apparatus, may be a great achievement for me personally, but for all human beings, it is only a small step in our exploration of the mysteries of space.

As St. Liszt said - "I did everything, but stripped a little darkness for the latecomers on the glorious road, and hung up street lights to guide the latecomers in the right direction."

In the future, people will definitely be able to go further along the path I guide and build a more beautiful and brilliant future.

——Albus Dumbledore's acceptance speech when he received the "Most Valuable Magic Award in a Century" from the United Government.

——someone’s dream——

The world is changing, maybe every day the changes are very, very small, and it is difficult to detect, but when you calm down and recall the past, you may find that the world is already so strange to you.

With the breakthrough of aluminum alloy and sealing technology, the number of giant airships over the city gradually increased, and on the streets, those Scientology priests who chanted strange prayers and operated various machines Little by little, those "steel monsters"/"gifts from the saints" have been brought into thousands of households.

This world is becoming strange—but everyone in this city, even the wizards, is willing to accept this change, not afraid of its strangeness, but more yearning for a better future.

Godric, who has longed for flying since before, is now obsessed with the feeling of sitting on the airbag of the airship while enjoying the sunshine and cold wind while admiring the sea of ​​clouds under his feet.

Rowena is full of ambitions and claims that she will replace the functions of every machine here with magic!For this she was burying her head in a pile of books.

Helga's current hobby is to hang out in Chengzhong, tasting the special snacks that came here with the caravans from all over the world, so that I feel that I have gained a lot of weight...

But they all have smiles on their faces all the time, this city is the pride of all of them...

But the feeling of "I'm writing history and becoming a legend" made him feel terrified, and all this was as inseparable as their children.

Even for all this, he had to try again.

"The presence of owl messengers in the city has become more frequent recently."

He said directly to the girl who was buried in the pile of documents.

"Can you explain a little more clearly?"

The girl who looked up at him had a puzzled look on her face.

"You have to stop with 'that study'."

He accentuated his tone slightly.

"Um……"

After pondering for a moment, the girl suddenly asked back:

"By the way, do you still remember the content of our transaction?"

"Provide you with the Philosopher's Stone or serve for 20 years, and you solve the problem of the wizard's inheritance."

He remembered the content of the transaction very clearly, it was the beginning of everything, the clarion call for the advancement of history.

Whenever he recalled that time, he would involuntarily say a word: Destiny!

"Look, this is how I cash out the deal—even if the wizards really guarantee that their offspring can awaken their wizard talents, it's only half a step back from the cliff, and the small-scale 'pure blood' ' Behavior will still lead them step by step towards destruction."

The girl then laughed:

"However, when everyone in this world is a wizard, unless human beings are destroyed, the legacy of wizards will never be cut off!

This is the correct way to ensure the continuity of wizards' inheritance once and for all! "

"No wizarding family would like this way of inheritance."

He responded unmoved.

"The world is developing, and those who cannot adapt to the development of this world will be ruthlessly eliminated."

The girl spoke words that he agreed with, but sounded strangely harsh.

"Whether they like it or not has no meaning to the wheel of history that has already begun to roll. Their choices are to get out of the way or be squashed."

"But you're in a hurry, if you can endure fifty...no! Thirty years!

As long as you put down the research at hand and develop for 30 years with peace of mind, no one will dare to stop you from doing whatever you want at that time!

Any obstacles in your way will be crushed by the wheels of history driven by you!

——Only an absolutely irresistible force can make them accept this result! "

He asked in a cold voice:

"But now, the power of wizards is far beyond what you can imagine.

Know what the successful outcome would be if you researched it now? "

"What will it be?"

The girl shook her head in bewilderment.

"Your achievements will be considered as the greatest threat to wizards since they mastered magic, surpassing the goblin rebellion and mad dragons in the past thousand years!"

He waved his arms and described the sad future to the girl:

"In order to ensure that the achievements are completely buried, the church of God of Science you created will be uprooted, and this city will be completely destroyed by wizards by any means!"

"In this case, when the four of you were traveling together to establish an academy to teach magic, did you ever think about whether wizards would hand over their magic and pass it on in this way?"

The girl continued to ask back.

"What I am going to do now is essentially the same as what you wanted to do at the beginning, but my method seems to be more thorough."

Yes, in this era when magic is regarded as the most precious property of the family, any act of asking wizards to share their knowledge will be regarded as the most vicious robber, not to mention asking them to teach others for free.

This is also the reason why the four of them traveled around to visit various wizards to make deals. Only in this way can they hoard chips that the entire wizarding world must face up to.

"Because I'm a wizard too! And one of them!

No matter how great the conflict caused by our establishment of the academy is, it will not be so big that it can only be resolved by the complete destruction of one side!

And even if we are wizards, if we try to turn Muggles into wizards, we will definitely become the undying enemies of all wizarding families.

And you, a Muggle, will die—you will die if you continue. "

He shook his head, and began his final exhortation:

"There are too many secret and invisible methods in the wizard family. Now they have begun to suspect. You don't even need to wait for them to confirm what you have done. As long as there are enough wizards who suspect you, you will die suddenly!"

"Understood, so I need to speed up the progress~"

After the girl finished listening, she showed him a smile that made him grit his teeth.

The author has something to say: Routinely seeking Amway, I have collected it at 4000, and I will try again to make a double update...

In addition, people have already been educated-"The anti-theft is to let those who watch the pirated version see the genuine version. What are you doing with this!?"

That brain hole is hesitating whether to hand it over to someone (that is, the "someone" who often appears in this "something to say"). He finds it very interesting and is looking for the part and outline that he has already written.

Finally, the weather is changing so much now, the rain falls as soon as it is said, and the state of drowning...

Note 1: Well, to be precise, if "being a really powerful wizard is not just about natural strength", it is very, very, very important for wizards to innate you.

Note 2: The four elements of fire, air, earth, and water. The ancient Greeks believed that these four elements constituted the foundation of the world. Aunt Rowling mentioned in the interview that the meaning of the four colleges is to represent these four elements—combined to form The whole world.However, with the development of science, the four-element theory was repeatedly slapped in the face, and then inexplicable things such as light and darkness had to be added.After modern times, with the development of science, the four-element theory was "truly" interpreted by people - air, earth, and water represent the three states of matter, and fire represents the power of movement.Now, after this theory has been slapped in the face again, there is an explanation that the four elements represent the four fundamental forces...

Note 3: Also called chemical battery, it was found in a sarcophagus found in Iraq more than 200 years ago. The current mainstream view is that the ancients plated objects in this way.

66. Fan Wai. The Dream of the Viper ([-])

In the academic circles, there has never been a generally accepted statement about the cause of the war that took place from 1366 to 1418 in the divine calendar (AD [-]-[-]).

The causes of the war claimed by the Magic Guild and the Scientology, in fact, have loopholes that can be explained:

Wizards claimed that Scientology brazenly went to war with wizards in order to find an enemy for themselves, but according to the author's summary of various official records, personal diaries, and even some fragments of wizard notes.

On March 150, [-] in the divine calendar—W Day (Day of War), an assault team composed of about [-] wizards proficient in combat magic from the Magic Guild raided the "Forerunner" of Scientology. "Research Association"-this important research base affiliated to the Sith sect of Scientology kicked off the war.

But the cause of the war in Xuancheng of the Scientology is also problematic. According to the "Latest and Most Complete Magic Yearbook (1361 Edition)" found by the author, the confusion spell was invented in the 1361nd year of the divine calendar ([-])—a full five years before the war. , If the wizard has any intentions, why wait a full five years before doing it?

And judging from the development of the early war, the wizards were almost unprepared for the outbreak of this war. Some people may refute that the Cult suffered great losses in the early days of the war:

The Priestess of the Scientology Praetorian Guard - this quick-response force, established after the "Day of Sorrow" and dedicated to defending the high-level Scientologists from the recurrence of tragedies, has demonstrated their value for the first time after 390 years since its establishment. Fanatics who chanted "Science is Above", endured unbelievable casualties without heavy equipment, risked the destructive magic of wizards, relied on their flesh and blood and the holy sword in their hands, relied on Following every corner and every staircase in the building, it was dragged abruptly until the arrival of the steam knights. (Author's note: The "Iron Blood Regiment" of the God Sect was established by selecting the backbone of the Priests of the Imperial Guard, so it is also called the "Iron Wall Regiment".)

Afterwards, the battle turned around, and the main force of the wizards was driven out of Glory City within [-] hours of the start of the war, and by the way, the headquarters of the Magic Guild in the Eastern District was set on fire.

In this battle, more than one-third of Glory City was affected by the flames of war, two of the three armed priesthoods of the Divine Religion were maimed, and seven archbishops of the Divine Religion were killed...

But from the perspective of our future generations, five years, the Confusion Curse and an unsuspecting assault, even if the Church of Scientology can resist it, it will have to pay a more painful price. It is even possible that the Glory City will fall, and it will never be like this Simply turn the tide of battle.

And why didn't the first wave of attacks by the wizards directly attack the sacred hall of the Cult of Scientology—the "starting point of the road" and directly execute beheadings to wipe out the top leaders of the Cult of Scientology?Or choose to assault the garrison of the Priests of the Imperial Guard and paralyze nearly half of Glory City's force?Instead, choose to assault a militarized research institute?

There is no information about the reason, whether it is the research records of the Forerunner Research Society at that time, or the order letter issued by the Magic Guild before the attack, all of them were "lost" as expected.

And no one is "interested" in that history.

Of course, there are reasons for the loss of data during the war or the long time, but more of it comes from the pressure of the Scientology and the Magic Guild.

For historians studying that period of history, all funding applications were rejected without exception, even if they were self-funded, any borrowing of official materials during that period was ruthlessly rejected, and it is even said that there will be some warnings from the dark .

What makes the two sides of the war so tacitly keep secrets for each other?

The only reasonable explanation is that what the Forerunner Research Association was always researching at that time was a scandal for both parties.

In this regard, the author has a diary of a wizard from that era, but the identity of the owner cannot be determined. One of the vague records may give you some enlightenment:

【Looking at the corpses and research notes of those wizards, I instantly understood what they were doing.The information obtained by the guild is not wrong... This is absolutely unacceptable, we have stopped you once before, and now we can stop you again! 】

——Excerpt from "A History of Magic: The War of the Worlds" Author: Anonymous

——someone’s dream——

No war has ever come in complete silence, and this one is no exception.

The first sign is that the resident wizards in the city began to leave due to various reasons. Yes, it is normal for wizards to travel or go out to find some potion materials, but more than a dozen wizards have been here for this reason. It's not normal to leave at almost the same time.

The second sign is that the successor of King Alfred, who has gone through seven "Wars of Demon Extermination" but failed all of them, began to follow his father and brother to prepare for the eighth "War of Demon Extermination"—but this time , It is said that there is a "messenger of the gods" who will help him.

In the end, it was Rowena who was asked by the family to complete the marriage contract as soon as possible—even if she is now a "witch with a thousand spells", she still can't match the owl messenger seven times a day at home—but it seems that she is not actually She hated her fiancé very much—if she really didn't want to, let alone her fiancé, even the wizard family where her fiancé belonged to would become history in an instant.

——This is their current self-confidence. This is the self-confidence after combining their own magic power with scientific theories and optimizing their own magic to a new level over the years. Falling confidence.

But in the wedding invitation, the girl with the name of the devil was not invited.

Hearing the news, he instantly understood what was going to happen.

But as he said before - he is also a member of wizards, and the overall interests of the family and wizards are what he must consider.

Likewise, Rowena, Godric and even Helga, don't they really understand what's going on?

Maybe they know it or they don't know it, but no one speaks...

The wedding ceremony was traditional and Rowena was beautiful in her gown...

Everything was exactly the same as the dozen or so wizard weddings he had attended before, so rigid and dull. Standing among the large group of guests mainly consisting of old men and old ladies, he felt that he was almost out of breath.

Rowena's impromptu magic performance was the only highlight of the wedding, and the gorgeous magic shocked the group of idiots who were far behind the times.

But neither Rowena nor they who came to the wedding, no one smiled during the wedding...

After the ceremony, he strode out of the venue and came here to attend the wedding as a guest. His family obligations have been fulfilled, and then it's his turn to fulfill another responsibility.

"The banquet isn't over yet, is it?"

Godric and Helga stood in his way, smiling side by side.

"Go get some air."

He answered calmly.

"Then it's just right, the rascals in my family are not too used to this kind of atmosphere, so let's go together?"

Godric put his hand on his shoulder very naturally, then turned around and waved to Helga who was about to follow:

"Ah, by the way, Helga, why don't you chat with Rowena more..."

"But……"

Helga hesitated.

"There are some things for men, but even if they are enemies of everyone, they have to do it-but that kind of responsibility is not yours, so it is enough to enjoy your own life and wait for the result quietly."

He interrupted Helga's answer and said slowly, then he tilted his head and looked to the other side:

"What do you say, Rowena?"

"Rowena Ravenclaw is here... I wish that the wind and the sun will always be with you, the earth and the mountains will make way for you, and the grass and trees will provide you with delicious fruits. "

Rowena slowly walked to Helga from behind the tree and held her gently, then gave an ancient breast-stroking salute to the other two.

"I also wish Tang can..."

Girls who master science and religion are not afraid of any enemies. The king of England proved this with seven fiascos, and this time is no exception. With the cooperation of airships and fire/powder, there is no suspense in the outcome .

But this time it was slightly different. While the army was attacking, some of the enemies disguised themselves as caravans and launched a surprise attack in the city.

But obviously, they encountered resistance that was extremely tenacious and far beyond their imagination...

There were knights with chain mail hidden in their robes, priests of Scientology with crowbars in their hands, and wizards with wands. Their corpses were so tangled together that the dead corpses almost filled the space. In the familiar aisle, the half-frozen blood turned into thick mud on the ground.

As this bloody road went in, he and Godric saw Liszt's body at the end of the corridor—outside the girl's house

He stabbed a dragon's crowbar through the left eye and into the skull with such force that after death he held the crowbar so tightly that the whole body hung from the dragon's head.

"crunch..."

He and Godric pushed open the false door.

"Hey……"

The girl whose whole body was dyed blood red lay in the crowd of five knights, smiled and waved at them with her remaining arm:

"It came just in time...I thought it was going to be another half hour of garbage time."

"Shut up! Drink it."

He rushed forward and took out the prepared potion, Godric also began to use healing magic.

"No need, I received seven sword strikes and five curses - but the one over there kept yelling that it was impossible that I didn't die on the spot."

The girl smiled and pointed to a wizard not far away. A warhammer was deeply embedded in the left forehead of that wizard.

"I'm not familiar with magic, but three of the seven swords alone are enough to kill."

"What kind of spell is this?"

The green light flickered and then went out, and then flickered and then went out again. Godric, who was constantly using magic, even had beads of sweat on his forehead.

"The curse is eating away at the soul? Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

And beside the girl, he didn't speak, just quietly watched the girl frown while suppressing her nausea, and drank the potion that was full of stench but didn't seem to have any effect.

"It seems that our deal is going to fail again. Maybe we should change the way of dealing next time. I always feel that the deal with you didn't go smoothly as if it was cursed?"

After drinking the potion, the girl threw the bottle out casually, and said to him half-jokingly:

"Don't bother Godric, it's the last time for everyone to have a chat."

"do not give up!"

Godric used magic again.

"Death is not the end for me, it's just the beginning, so we'll see each other again."

After finishing speaking, the girl looked at him and smiled:

"But next time you won't have the chance to bully me again..."

"There will be no next time!"

He took out his wand under the girl's surprised gaze.

"Petra!"

67. Fan Wai. The Dream of the Viper ([-])

War advances science, steel purifies blood, and fire purifies minds.

- Scientology. War promotes sect doctrine.

(The sect was declared a heresy by the divine religion in the year [-] of the divine calendar, the bishop of the sect was excommunicated, and all members were expelled. Only a few branches of the sect still exist in war-torn African countries in modern times.)

In the Middle Ages, a powerful wizard might be able to fight against 1 to [-] knights without losing the wind—in that era when science and magic were underdeveloped, now we are Avada Kedavra + Flash Back curse (Note [-]), at that time was the secret "Unforgivable Curse".

In the new millennium starting from the "First Five", the most intuitive manifestation of the development of science and magic is in war-everything in war has been changed by them.

With the invention of the flying broom, he could only watch the storm of destruction being swayed by the enemies in the air at will, and the knight in full armor retired sadly.

With the increase in volleyball tactics and the rate of fire of firearms, the balance of war once again changed from wizards full of "aristocratic spirit" taking turns to single out, to "God always favors the side with more guns and more training".

In the era of the Scientology/Wizard War, with the further strengthening of the "composite amulet", and the 15mm slanted armor of the Scientology steam knights, thermal weapons with a caliber below 75 were completely eliminated on the battlefield. On this "battlefield of gods and giants", ordinary troops are more reduced to cannon fodder for delaying time or scouting the way.

By the time Lord Slytherin returned to bring peace, the "composite protective charm" could already withstand the direct hit of 125-caliber armor-piercing bullets, and the steam knights had generally reached [-] horsepower, known as land cruisers.

Since then, with the disappearance of large-scale conflicts and the miniaturization and localization of conflicts, the mode of warfare has also undergone great changes.

In these conflicts with resources as the main contradiction, in the past, the "glory of the sun" opened the way, the "steel giant" attacked the fortifications, and ordinary soldiers occupied--after the battle, there was nothing left except a piece of scorched earth that would last for hundreds of years (the author Note: Tianzhu is the main battlefield of the wizard war, and there are still some areas where the radiation far exceeds the normal level) is no longer applicable.

Speed, flexibility, less damage, and expulsion of the opponent's vital forces have become new requirements in warfare. To deal with this requirement, a high-mobility tactic with wizards as the core and soldiers at the platoon or company level as the assistant began to emerge.

In these tactics, mainly invisibility and delusion spells, supplemented by long-range precision curses, disrupting the opponent's troop mobilization and directly beheading the opponent's command system with surprise attacks - it has to be said that this is different from the nobles, The tactics of the Wizarding Alliance are exactly the same.

——Excerpt from "Theory of War, Magic and War" Author: Carl von Clausewitz

As for the nature of "ghosts" that exist in areas with high magic power concentrations, there is currently no unified understanding in the academic circles. The mainstream view in the Scientology School of Physics is that the so-called "ghosts" are the quantization of brain waves under accidental circumstances.

Some people think that it is because the "magic power" of these ghosts has some special circumstances at the time of death, which interferes with the higher dimension, so that the three-dimensional projection of the human body and thinking is out of touch.

Of course, this high-dimensional theory was completely refuted by the relevant schools of Scientology...

(Somewhat)

Supporters believe that since they have all the memory and personality, the soul can be regarded as the carrier of the core information of the carrier, and it should be regarded as the most essential, core and most important thing of human beings, so it should naturally be Enjoy all the obligations and responsibilities of Ontology.

Opponents believe that the "Turing of the Holy Spirit" has long proved that no information can only exist alone. Since information itself does not have the slightest sacredness, then those things that can only survive by eating ** food (Note 2) It cannot be proved that it has an essential relationship with the deceased.

But now this issue has developed from morality and ethics to a philosophical issue such as the boat of Theseus (Note 3), and there is still a lot of controversy on this issue from all walks of life.

However, a very interesting situation at present is that the religious group of Scientology believes that the so-called "soul" is not "the most essential and most important thing of human beings", while the Magic Guild has repeatedly claimed that death is not the end, but just the next stage of life Start……

——Excerpt from "Morality and Law. No. 316. Talking about Ghosts/Souls and Inheritance"

An uncontrollable sense of hunger and thirst suddenly hit him, like a thirsty traveler in the desert, he drank the charmingly fragrant liquid in the pool beside him until the hunger and thirst subsided, and the thing called "reason" reappeared. back to him.

Shaking his head vigorously to drive away the dizziness caused by the long sleep, he stood up and walked to the spring not far away, carefully washing away the bright red sticky liquid all over his body.

"grown ups……"

A middle-aged man in a deacon's uniform respectfully presented towels and clothes.

"Greenwald..."

While fiddling with the strange clothes in his hand in some doubts, he asked:

"How long did I sleep this time?"

"You slept for 15 years this time, my lord."

The middle-aged man Greenwald answered with his head down.

"It's only been 15 years? So what's the matter with waking me up this time?"

He thought about the timetable he had originally made, and asked with some doubts.

"The goblin's rebellion? The guild and the gods are at war again? Or is there something wrong with those people who experimented with magical creatures?"

Yep, that's why he's called "The Peacemaker", "The Uncrowned King of the World", "The Most Powerful Wizard Who Ever Lived", and is considered by all to be the perfect nobleman:

Uncommon knowledge, superhuman strength, and most importantly - he is willing to contribute these strengths to this world.

"We found a way to crack it!"

Greenwald responded.

"I remember that the means to undo the perfect petrification is already... you are talking about the curse?"

Having said that, he stopped all his movements, turned his head and stared at Greenwald with those bright red eyes and asked:

"What method are you going to use to remove the soul curse?"

"Um... sorry, my lord.

You also know the truth that the simpler the structure of the spell, the more difficult it is to destroy it.

And the curse of the soul is the most simple structure of the spell structure that we know so far. Even when using it, there are only two results of success and failure, and there is no possibility of 'mistake'. "

Greenwald bit the bullet and said:

"We have used the results of more than 3000 death row inmate experiments over the years. If targeted treatment is started immediately after being cursed, there is a half chance of success. Once the time is too long...

So we have come to only one conclusion after countless failures—unless the curse is cut off together with the infected part of the soul, it cannot be eliminated. "

"Then what do you want to do?"

He knew very well that if it was only to this extent, Greenwald would never wake himself up in advance.

"Although it cannot be eliminated, we can consume it!"

There was a hint of excitement in Greenwald's voice. After years of hard work, they finally found a solution to that millennium dilemma.

"The curse also needs energy to work, so as long as the energy of this curse is consumed on other souls, it will also be the solution!

If 1 souls are not enough, we will use 10 people, and if 10 people are not enough, we will use millions of people!

The opinion of our research institute is - use enough quantitative changes to pile up a qualitative change! "

"Then how many souls are needed to make the soul curse completely ineffective?"

he asked noncommittal.

"The technology is not perfect now, and there will be huge losses in that process..."

Greenwald hesitated when speaking:

"It would take about... 30 souls to change the effect of the curse from fatal to debilitating."

"I'm asking about total failure."

He said coldly, and the invisible dark smoke began to spread around.

"Estimated to be around... 500 million people..."

When answering, Greenwald felt that his scalp was numb.

Yes, as a "retro-style" wizard, he firmly believes that compared to Muggles, wizards are inherently noble and are the darlings of the world...

But again, as a person who has received modern education and environmental images, Greenwald inevitably bears the brand of "modern man".

"How many people are there in the world now?"

He went on to ask:

"...how many wizards are there?"

"My lord, last year's statistics included the alien colony space stations, and now the world's total population is about 120 billion..."

Greenwald, who was slightly relieved, replied:

"The number of registered wizards is about 100 million (Note 4), but there may be many people with ulterior motives who have concealed part of the report."

"Ha ha……

Ha ha ha ha……"

The laughter gradually changed from a deep sneer to a wild laugh, it was unbelievably loud
