Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

Chapter 403: The future of wizards (Part 1)

Wonder what the blood of hibiscus tastes like? Lockhart was thinking about this at this time. Gabriel's blood was delicious, but he didn't dare to drink more... But Furong was a very good wizard. I don't know anything... It seems unlikely, and Furong doesn't have the coveted aroma of Gabriel... He struggled for a while and gave up this plan.

"The next step of the Ministry of Magic is to attract wizards from other countries..." Lockhart said. "Before other countries have introduced better welfare policies, they will try to quickly replenish the wizarding population lost in the war."

"It's a good idea, but what's the benefit of having a large wizard population." Bill asked: "Your current policy is actually to let Muggles keep wizards and make them pay a little protection fee in exchange for wizards not conquering and enslaving Muggles— -Of course I'm a bit extreme when I say this, and some wizards are indeed serving Muggles. But what's the use of having more wizards in addition to increasing their burden, and making your political record look better?"

"I don't need merit, I'll resign when Rufus is out of the hospital. It's just that you think too superficially, Bill." Lockhart said bluntly: "This situation can really be described as Muggles paying our protection. In exchange for wizards not enslaving them, you are right on this point, and you are not extreme - but have you ever thought about whether wizards should really be like this, always let Muggles raise them, and always limit their vision to In a small magic circle, complacent about being able to do magic?"

Lockhart has successfully attracted the attention of all the Order of the Phoenix. He is no longer the sultry wizard who earned some royalties and was complacent with two girls. Although he was a little lost by the power, he was forced to be cursed. It's a little perverted, but anyone who sees him has to admit: even if he doesn't deliberately use his momentum, the new Minister of Magic naturally exudes an aura of a leader and a superior—

As soon as he opened his mouth with a serious expression, everyone stopped talking immediately and looked at him in unison. Even little Gabriel, who could not understand what he was talking about, and Teddy Lupin in Tonks' arms were caught The atmosphere affected.

"How many years ago. When the word Muggle was born, wizards had absolute power to crush Muggles. Wizards with magic and ordinary people without magic are really almost two kinds of creatures..." Lockhart said, "This is also the most fundamental reason why wizards look down on Muggles. But the new Wizarding Law stipulates that wizards and Muggles have equal status. Not only did no members of Wizengamore object to it, but even ordinary wizards did not have much discussion-"

"They're all talking about how many Death Eaters you killed..." Ron whispered.

"Well, why is that? Because Muggles use weapons to make wizards realize they're not easy to bully! Nukes - or the least powerful ones I've had a little trouble getting my hands on, easily sabotaged the Department of Mysteries. Proud of it. The powerhouse protection magic known as 'unbreakable'. Some details you don't know - when the wizards I sent to the underground to dig the power supply core came back and told me: the entire powerhouse was bombed Destroyed, except for the core crystal, all the power supply lines have been blown up. If it weren't for the metal support frame of the outer wall set up by the first-generation builders of the genius Ministry of Magic... In theory, the entire Ministry of Magic would have collapsed. A meter or two."

"So powerful? But you said it was the smallest nuclear weapon." Hermione asked in surprise.

"Yeah, at the time, I thought, 'The smallest nuclear bomb may not necessarily destroy the power supply room'..." Lockhart shook his head with a wry smile, "Now I think about it, I'm in a cold sweat, but fortunately I've never been a stubborn person. people."

"Hmph—" Mrs. Weasley clearly disagreed with his boast.

"You know the details, don't tell anyone," Lockhart continued. "Besides, during the attack on the Ministry of Magic. Death Eaters who die under Muggle weapons are actually more dead than dying. There are even more Death Eaters under the curse, which obviously impresses the staff at the Ministry of Magic... Do you understand what I'm talking about?"

"Muggles are strong, and wizards have no chance of winning head-on," Lupin said.

"No one has ever denied that." Sirius still didn't understand what he wanted to say.

"That's right, but what I'm trying to say is this: Muggles earned their status today, not wizards." Lockhart smiled and found the man who taught at Hogwarts again. Feeling: "Indeed, we now have the Muggle Intelligence Service, the Imperius Curse, the Confusion Curse, all kinds of magical magic. There's no need for a head-on confrontation with the Muggles—"

"You said now, don't you think there will be no later!" Ginny asked.

"Don't worry, listen to me. Magic is called magic because Muggles don't understand it. It doesn't work..." Lockhart began to explain, "and now that I have more exposure to the Muggle world, I find that Many of their things are obviously without the help of magic, but they still achieve some goals that should be achieved with the help of magic..."

"Muggles have science, and with the power of technology—"

"Yes, Hermione is from the Muggle world. It should be easy to understand what I want to say next: the magic we use now, ninety percent is the same as the magic used by wizards a thousand years ago, at most it is It's just easier and faster to improve spellcasting - on the one hand you can understand that magic can stand the test of time, but on the other hand... It's sad to look at it another way: wizards have not improved much over the years, but The Muggle world has been turned upside down."

"I seem to understand what you mean..." Bill said with a dazed expression: "You mean, with the development of technology, Muggles will one day surpass us, but - what does this have to do with immigration? ."

"Well, that's right. After finding out that Muggles are so powerful, on the one hand I let the Muggle Intelligence Service keep an eye on them, and on the other hand ~www.readwn.com~ I began to try to understand the so-called science of Muggles. Get a deep understanding, and then... my worldview is turned upside down. I used to think that Muggle disciplines were either superficial gadgets or military science of destructive power, and never thought that Muggles would try and even begin to go deep Peek into the secrets of the origin of this world."

Seeing that everyone was still puzzled, Lockhart could only continue to say: "Muggles know why there are days and nights, why there is wind and rain, and why there are stars and moons in the sky, mountains and seas on the ground... and we , wizards use Apparition to get to every place quickly, use spells to complete their daily tasks, and the powerful can even call the wind and rain - but don't know how exactly this is achieved. If it goes on like this, one day Muggles will invent to distinguish wizards , the way to fight wizards... Imperius and Confusion spells will be ineffective, and if we are forced to fight again, wizards who never want to face Muggles will find that these unmagical human means are powerful and fundamentally bizarre Incomprehensible. Because they don't understand and can't do it, their technology seems more like magic than ours."

Lockhart paused, as it seemed to say too much: "Remember, I added a section on Muggle basic science to the education law, just to hope that wizards grew up knowing more about Muggles, realizing that these are the same as us. races, creatures that cannot use magic, have and will have such great power."

[There is still 1800 recommended votes to add. Thanks to the cute Voldemort for the reward, the second helmsman of this book has finally emerged, but the first helmsman is a local tyrant who didn't even read the book, but just gave a random reward when he passed by. Such a person actually occupies the fan list. For the first two months, cry... But Lockhart said that even being cute will kill you~]
