Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 121

c121 doubt

As the scale of Dawn continues to expand, more and more manpower is available.

Unlike before, if you want to do something, you can only mobilize from the group of two or three big cats and small cats.

But each of them has their own urgent things to do, which leads to many things being postponed indefinitely.

It was also in the past year, with the graduation of Seni, that they secretly developed some truly available manpower.

It must be said that adult wizards who have been struggling in society for many years may not be as talented or knowledge-based as students who have walked out of Hogwarts.

But their abilities and life experiences are far ahead of students like Seni.

After so many years in society, they have more or less mastered some special abilities.

For example, investigating goblins.

With Seni alone, he had to develop manpower and take care of the communication store that was still developing at the time.

There was no energy to track the group of goblins who were so powerful.

Fortunately, many of the people recruited were well-informed.

Seni knew very early that what they were going to do was a business that would cost them their lives.

So when he first started recruiting people, he did not target the legitimate wizards with a white background.

He grew up among the saints, although he did not know the true identity of his family’s old friends and elders.

But after years of being influenced by them, he had become more thoughtful.

He knew where to find some useful people.

Of course, he was not stupid, and he did not recruit people openly under the banner of reform.

At the beginning, he went to the black market to hire some available people.

They did not need to do anything, as long as they could do some time-consuming and energy-consuming things for him, it would be enough.

If you want to say where there are the most people, it is undoubtedly the tavern in the black market.

Places like taverns have always been a good place to inquire about intelligence and hire people.

It may be difficult to find great talents, but it is definitely the right place to find some thieves.

In addition, Grete gave him full autonomy, and all the funds under the communication store were at his disposal as long as he needed them.

With a bounty that was not stingy with the reward, he could naturally gather a group of emergency personnel.

Besides, in the magic world, there were magic contracts to constrain them, so they were not afraid that they would take the money and not do anything, or even betray him.

Also, even if they wanted to betray him, they had to find him.

As long as they were not formal members of the organization, it was impossible to know what he looked like.

Grete had long created a special camouflage spell for their safety, hair color, clothing, voice, and everything that might reveal their true identity. With one spell, they didn’t have to worry about anything.

Just as the place where serious wizards exchanged information was the Leaky Cauldron.

Those low-class and dark wizards hiding in the shadows also had their own places to go.

With many people carrying bounties, it was impossible for them to show up in the formal business places of the magic world.

It is also because the organizers of the black market are bold. If others do these illegal transactions, they must be afraid of being noticed.

But the black market in England is the opposite. He played a trick with the Ministry of Magic.

They set up the black market at the back of Diagon Alley, the largest trading market in England.

Naturally, no one thought that the black market that the Ministry of Magic has always been eager to make a big political achievement was placed in Upside Down Alley adjacent to Diagon Alley.

This is not right.

In fact, Upside Down Alley can only be regarded as a must-go place to enter the black market.

On the surface, the shops in Upside Down Alley are just wandering in the gray area of ​​the magic world to make some hot money.

Do some illegal transactions of handling stolen goods and buying and selling black magic items.

But no one has ever thought that in fact, in the deepest part of Upside Down Alley, there is a black market hidden, which is the same as the way to enter Diagon Alley, and requires a hidden way to enter.

It was from his grandfather, Vladimir Dilgo, the former chief of staff of the Saints and the former chief of the intelligence department, that Seni learned the secrets here.

Seni did hire the talents he urgently needed.

These people were later recruited into the intelligence department by him and became his right-hand men.

People in the black market do some shady business, drugging, beating, killing and arson, and do everything.

All they want is a little bit, gold galleons.

At that time, Shuguang lacked everything, but the only thing he didn’t lack was the huge income that came like a tide.

Seni’s big hand made him the hottest figure in the black market.

Many people were willing to work for him.

However, Seni kept one thing in mind, when recruiting people, try to recruit people with a clean background and a bottom line.

This way, there will be fewer cases of eagles looking at wolves and black eating black.

Seni also thought so. He was cautious by nature, not to mention that he had received the warning from the most respected leader.

Therefore, when he recruited people, he not only looked at their abilities, but also secretly bought a batch of intelligence on black market personnel from the tavern owner. After a lot of selection, he finally found some people who could be barely trusted.

As for the rest, they burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil, but he did not let go of those who were capable.

In order to avoid being slaughtered as a fat sheep, he chose to do business with the tavern owner.

He took out the gold galleons and put a batch of intelligence tasks on the shelf.

The goblins in Gringotts were targeted by this group of people.

In the entire wizarding world, which wizard discriminates against these alien species the most?

The first to bear the brunt are of course the Death Eaters under Voldemort. After all, they look down on wizards of the same kind, and only pure blood can barely become their companions.

The second is these desperate criminals who value money over life. They have been wandering on the edge of darkness for many years, and they don’t even care about anyone except themselves.

If Voldemort had not returned at that time, they might have jumped on him and become one of the Death Eaters.

After all, in the eyes of this group of people, Voldemort is not a demon king who harms the world.

Compared with the demon king, Voldemort is more like a savior who comes to redeem them.

If Voldemort is still alive, the Death Eaters are the best destination for this group of people.

Who would like to live in a dark and stinky ditch when they can walk outside openly?

They are just dark wizards or desperate criminals, not dirty bugs.

These “capable people” are indeed worthy of being the ones who can live a lively life under the pursuit of the Ministry of Magic.

Even the elusive goblins, under their pursuit, still revealed a lot of clues.

While hiring the desperadoes, Cerny examined the prospective members who were barely useful.

After comparing the intelligence on both sides, it was discovered that these goblins really played a lot of tricks behind the scenes.

The alien races in the entire magic world. Whether it is the orcs in Northern Europe, or the vampires in the southern forest, or the brainless trolls, they have contacted almost all of them.

And according to the information collected, Cerny speculated that the goblins may not have contacted them for more than 10 or 20 years.

Only a few, such as centaurs or elves, these races that are closer to nature, did not establish a cooperative relationship with them.

The most surprising thing is that after Voldemort was resurrected, Cerny’s intelligence department also found that they had contacted the Death Eaters more than once.

The familiar attitude made people wonder if they had also been behind the scenes when Voldemort was wreaking havoc in the wizarding world.

Who let them have the heart to kill wizards, so whether it was Gretel or Seni, they never hesitated to speculate with the greatest malice on these goblins who had repeatedly rebelled.

From ancient times to the present, as long as it involves war, nothing is simple.

Yes, when Gretel decided to take action against the goblins, Zheng Shuguang raised the matter to the level of war.

Before the troops move, the food and grass must go first, but before that, there is the most important step, which is the collection of intelligence.

Gretel never fights unprepared battles, which is the wisdom learned from the experience of the sages.

In fact, when the goblins contacted these alien races or Death Eaters, they did not reveal too many flaws.

But who let their partners not have such smart minds and clever means.

Dealing with goblins is not a simple matter.

When the wizards were not as lonely as they are now, they could not defeat the goblins, let alone now.

You know, it was a full-scale war between wizards and goblins at that time.

At that time, whether it was black wizards or white wizards, everyone worked together to win those wars.

The wizards recorded it in history. They smashed the goblin kingdom to pieces and completely destroyed the goblin kingdom that had lasted for who knows how many years.

But obviously, neither the goblins nor Grete thought so.

Grete even thought that the goblins might not have lost much manpower.

After all, wizards who always like to boast about their contributions in historical records have not recorded the number of goblins they have eliminated.

From this, we can see the level of goblins’ scheming. The goblin king at that time was definitely a great talent.

Showing weakness to the enemy, breaking the entire goblin kingdom into pieces, and completely eliminating the wizards’ fear of them.

But behind the scenes, the goblins can still recuperate.

Even as time goes by, they have mastered the most important financial system for the entire magical world.

All this stems from the goblins showing weakness to the wizards.

As the victors, how could they worry about the comeback of their former defeated subordinates?

Speaking of which, who in the magic world needs a financial system?

Only wizards.

Other intelligent races still follow the ancient rule of bartering.

The same is true for the entire human race.

Only humans need an established financial system, which can help them to promote the collision between different cultures through economic exchanges.

Wizards have experienced the strangulation of Muggles, but what about goblins?

These humanoid intelligent races have never merged with humans.

At that time, they had always stayed away from human society and developed in a low-key manner.

Therefore, their civilization has never been cut off. At least, in all the historical records that Grete has read today, there is no similar record.

Grete speculated from this that the goblins were definitely not afraid of death and extinction, and they were definitely not incapable of resistance.

On the contrary, they were absolutely capable of wrestling with wizards.

Let alone other things, just look at the fairies now, they all know how to unite with other non-human races.

How could the ancestors who went to war with wizards not have these back-ups?

Not everyone understands the principle of dying lips and cold teeth.

Wizards can wipe out one race today and another tomorrow.

Goblins understand this truth, and they will naturally use this reason to persuade others.

The entire group of wizards may be able to crush a single race, but facing the union of all non-human races, they will never reap the benefits.

It is very possible that the wise men of the goblin race at that time had discovered that the wizards’ abilities were getting weaker year by year.

Lowering your head will not only reduce casualties, but also eliminate the sense of threat left by the goblin in the wizard’s mind.

Isn’t this a matter of great benefit and no harm?

Long-lived people can always survive slowly. When the wizards disappear from the crowd, they stand up again and take the entire magical world into their pockets. Isn’t it a victory?

From Gretel’s perspective, the entire magical world seemed shrouded in a thick mystery.

Let’s not talk about modern times. After all, the Muggle world has completely surpassed the magical world.

Just talking about the near valley, and even more distant ancient times, are Muggles really capable of persecuting wizards?

There is no need to mention the Imperius Curse, a curse that perfectly controls people. Let’s just talk about small methods such as the Oblivion Curse, the Mass Oblivion Curse, the Disillusionment Curse, and the Muggle Expelling Curse.

You can take advantage of the entire Muggle community at will, so why are there so many persecution incidents against wizards?

Also, Muggles can pass down thousands of years of history by word of mouth.

How could wizards, who have always been at the forefront of the world and mastered the most advanced means, cause a gap in the history of the magical world?

Magic particles, what he observed, were most likely related to wizards’ spellcasting abilities, but why had they never been seen in historical records.

Also, how did the relationship between Muggles and wizards get to where it is now?

Sneaking into the church and tampering with the doctrine, isn’t it something that a wizard can do at will?

Also, the more she comes into contact with magic particles, the more Gretel discovers the convenience of casting spells with will.

Do things like spells, gestures, and magical configurations really need to exist?

Those goblins, house elves, vampires, and werewolves didn’t see any of these unnecessary operations when they cast spells.

…

Grete only felt like a circle on paper. The more things he learned, the more secrets he felt were everywhere.

What made him feel most hopeless was that as he slowly reached the peak of being a wizard, he found that he could only answer these questions one by one by himself.

Because now no one can explain his doubts to him.

As he grew stronger, he felt that there were problems and mysteries everywhere.

For example, now, he had to think about how to give the goblins a heavy blow within the rules without causing them to start a war with the wizards.
