Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 120
c120 It is necessary to take action against Gringotts
“Chief, let’s assist Mr. Longbottom. Perhaps our experimental data can provide more help to Mr. Longbottom.”
Grete was a little surprised by what the manager of the Shuguang Agricultural Research Institute said.
The researchers of the institute have always been arrogant, and the heads of dozens of projects never give in to each other.
In order to occupy more research funding, they have always been tit-for-tat, no matter who they are facing, they never bow their heads.
Only when facing Grete, the leader, or Penello, who is in charge of the financial power, will their attitude be appropriately relaxed.
At other times, even when facing Morn, the Minister of Magic, or Seni, the head of intelligence, when it comes to research, they are not taken seriously at all.
In fact, Grete feels that if he is not the initiator of the project and has provided many broad ideas from his own thinking.
These people will not have any servile attitude towards him.
After all, when Shuguang was first launched, the policy set was talent-oriented.
Therefore, these rare talents with research talent in the magic world have always been respected by the Shuguang from top to bottom.
In order to allow them to do their research to their heart’s content and produce more results, Grete specifically instructed that the institute should be managed by their insiders and separated from the existing administrative agencies of Shuguang.
Scientific research is scientific research and should not have any connection with politics.
Therefore, for so long, Shuguang has only initiated the necessary supervision procedures for the institute. For the rest of the things, according to Grete’s regulations, professionals should take care of professional matters, and except for finance, they do not contact each other.
In other words, Grete’s attitude towards these researchers with important tasks has always been casual and indulgent.
Grete is not worried that this structure will become too big in the future.
Because since the day the institute was established, Grete has seriously repeated the iron law of the institute many times.
That is, research is pure and should not be mixed with any political factors.
The institute adheres to the principle of voluntary participation. All those who are eligible to join will be separated from the existing administrative agencies of Shuguang from the day their identities are transferred to the institute.
All members of the institute can enjoy the most generous treatment of Dawn, but once they enter the institute, they will not have the opportunity to return to the administrative agency.
And there are no fixed positions within the institute. The project leaders are all capable people who are promoted and mediocre people who are demoted.
In order to avoid corruption, every expenditure of the institute must be recorded in detail, and people are randomly selected from the financial department every quarter to check the accounts.
Grete does not believe that anyone can play any shameful political games in the institute, which has no political soil.
Therefore, it is really surprising for Grete that the researchers trained under this situation would choose to bow their heads.
He had seen how Seini interfered with the research in the institute in order to catch spies, and how he was blocked in the corner and pointed at by this group of researchers.
However, he understood it in an instant. There is no need to go around in research.
Especially in the new organization of Dawn, the atmosphere of the institute is that the capable people are promoted and the mediocre people are demoted.
Although Dawn and Dawn are two parallel organizations, in the final analysis, the leaders of the two organizations are the same leader.
Although Neville is no longer in Dawn, as long as Grete is still in this world, Dawn and Breaking Dawn are brothers from the same mother.
Therefore, the researchers naturally regard Neville as one of their own in the institute.
The wise are the teachers. Don’t you see that the supreme leader of Dawn is only fifteen years old this year?
With Grete as a role model, they have long regarded Neville as a person of the same level.
Not to mention, now it is clear that they are not as skilled as others. They have obtained all of Neville’s records, but they can’t even do a simple replica.
…
Fortunately, although they can’t replicate Neville’s operation and create their own seeds from scratch.
However, they can stand on Neville’s shoulders and optimize the seeds.
Not to mention the enthusiastic research atmosphere between Neville and the researchers of the Agricultural Research Institute.
Grete rushed to Nurmengard again.
It’s been a while since they last met. When they met, Grete found that the old man Grindelwald was in good spirits.
The loss and fatigue that had once lingered in the corners of his eyes were almost swept away.
When he came to Nurmengard again, Grete found that it was completely different from the last time he came.
Starting from the top floor, all the way to the bottom floor, the walls of those independent small cells were knocked down one by one, and each floor became a large flat floor.
Grindelwald also moved down from the independent small cell with a pointed roof on the top floor.
The reason was that the space there was too small and the information he needed could not be piled up at all.
If there was not a small bed against the wall that could barely accommodate one person, Grete would have suspected that he had come to the library.
Everywhere you can see densely packed bookshelves, which are filled with documents handed up from the lower floors.
Grindelwald sat at a large table surrounded by bookshelves, holding a pen and burying his head in writing something on paper.
From time to time, he would wave his hand, and the required documents would automatically float from the bookshelf to him.
What Gret didn’t expect was that he merged with the magic particles and could be sensed by Grindelwald.
“Gret?”
The moment he appeared, Grindelwald stopped writing and looked up in the direction of Gret.
Only then did Gret confirm that the old man in front of him really sensed his existence.
“Don’t hide. Take a look at my latest research. You may be interested. After you finish reading, I will tell you about my latest research.”
Gret showed up helplessly. This was one of his few entertainments.
Every time he appeared in front of Grindelwald in this way that transcended time, he could see the envious eyes of the old man.
Grindelwald didn’t summarize much, but what he said in it surprised Gret.
Because last time before Gret left Nurmengard, he mentioned to Grindelwald that the magic world had suffered crises from the Muggle world several times.
So in this case, a lot of documents and records of the magic world were lost.
Gretel suggested that they could profile the lives of ancient wizards by studying the historical records of Muggles.
Grindelwald did so.
The history of Muggles is vast, and the number of people is tens of millions times that of wizards, which has created countless historical events.
Even though many histories have been tampered with, some clues of the magical world can still be observed from some historical records.
The records in Gretel’s hand are the effective information that Grindelwald extracted from these histories.
In Grindelwald’s summary, he wrote that in the early stages, all powerful wizards were inseparable from the Muggle world.
In other words, only by combining more closely with Muggles can the power of wizards become stronger.
He also raised his doubts, whether it was because only wizards who had contact with Muggles were recorded.
But after comparing with the history of the magical world, he overturned this speculation.
The powerful wizards recorded by Muggles are almost the same as those recorded in the magical world.
In other words, there are no powerful wizards who exist alone away from Muggle society.
Wizards may hide from Muggles, but they cannot hide from other wizards.
After all, the materials that wizards need in their daily lives cannot be collected by one person.
This also means that there are no powerful people who hide both the Muggle and magic worlds at the same time.
And in those times when the magic world was closely connected with the Muggle world, geniuses emerged in the magic world almost endlessly.
Compared with the current situation, it can be said to be two extremes.
In the historical records of the Muggle world, the older the age, the more powerful existences are recorded.
The further back, until now, when wizards live in isolation and are completely separated from the Muggle world.
There are fewer people who can really change the world by themselves.
Another point is that Grindelwald discovered that before breaking off contact with the Muggle world, the more people contributed to the entire human civilization process, the more powerful they would be.
This is completely consistent with the records that Grete sent recently.
Neville, according to his past performance, is not a genius in this era.
But after he was infused with magic particles and gifted by the world.
His current performance is already unique among the students of Hogwarts.
Even if it is possible, if Neville is thrown into the period before Grindelwald’s rise, he can become a hot new star in the magic world.
But did he do anything in magic training?
No, he didn’t even spend a lot of time on magic research.
It just opened up a new path for the cultivation of grain seeds.
But for wizards, this is not important at all.
After all, from ancient times to the present, there has never been a case of free wizards starving to death.
If magic is not spared, a quickly grown and bred food is enough for an entire wizard family to eat for a whole year.
So from this point of view, Dumbledore’s discovery of the twelve uses of dragon blood has contributed much more to the magic world than Neville’s contribution to creating excellent breeds.
However, if Dumbledore is put at the same age as Neville, it is obvious that he is much inferior to Neville.
Even if Dumbledore, who had already graduated in the timeline, was dragged over, he was still not as good as Neville.
Ordinarily, this situation should not happen, but it happened so bizarrely.
So, when Grindelwald learned that Neville had appeared under Gretel’s command, he studied it for several days without sleep.
Comparing Neville with the outstanding wizards in ancient history, he found a common point.
They all made important contributions to the course of human history.
Just like the wars before the Middle Ages, many wizards were recruited by Muggle generals at that time.
The bizarre thing is that a wizard who was originally weak may follow a powerful general.
His strength will grow rapidly, and even surpass the recognized genius of his time.
What contribution did he make?
The only thing that can be connected is that a powerful general may complete the unification faster and stabilize the entire Muggle society.
Gretel saw this and fell into deep thought.
Grindelwald spoke, “Of course, those are my personal guesses, but I think the probability of its credibility is at least 70%.
But, to be honest, the Muggles’ suppression of wizards is too brutal, and there are indeed many records in the magic world.
Simply studying the history of Muggles cannot prove my guess.
And in today’s society, wizards have no chance to join the army.
If we can get more and more detailed history of the magic world, perhaps we can sort out the relationship between Muggles and wizards more quickly and solve the problem of wizards’ gradually weakening strength.”
Grete knew what Grindelwald meant.
If we talk about who in the entire magic world now has a more detailed history of the magic world, it is undoubtedly the group of goblins known for their shrewdness.
As immortal species and magical creatures that have always been hidden outside the Muggle society, the history they recorded has almost never been broken.
In addition, they have always been eyeing wizards, so they must have countless historical records in their hands.
Another way is to explore the relics left by ancient wizards.
In ancient times, whether they were Muggles or wizards, they would attach great importance to their own death.
As they attach great importance to death, they would naturally build their own mausoleums magnificently and imposingly.
However, just as Muggle kings and nobles are afraid of tomb robbers stealing from their mausoleums, wizards naturally have this worry.
Therefore, no matter which era the ancient wizards were from, they would have all kinds of difficult traps and curses in their residences after death.
The civilization fault of the magic world has caused wizards to have no energy and no ability to explore there safely.
In today’s magic world, only Gringotts has such a professional position as a curse remover.
These goblins have the secret recipes for cursing that have been passed down from ancient times. Therefore, most of the ancient ruins that have been discovered are basically under the control of Gringotts.
Gret pinched his chin and thought for a long time. He felt that it was time to start the action against Gringotts, or the goblin group.
It was difficult for him to accept that the entire financial system of the magic world was in the hands of an alien.
Now, they need the goblins to record the hidden history of the magic world.
No matter how you look at it, these evil aliens have a way to die.
Dawn, since Seni graduated, began to monitor the goblins of Gringotts.
However, the main body of Dawn at that time was still hiding in Hogwarts and developing secretly, and Seni’s main energy was still on secretly developing new members.
However, even so, Seni still found clues that the goblins were really not as honest as they showed to the outside world.
In other words, the honesty they showed was always to confuse the entire wizard group.
