Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 155

c154 Kunlun never stands still

In Grete’s opinion, the wizard community should always be advanced.

Because most of the trivialities in daily life can be reasonably replaced by magic.

An ordinary Muggle family, apart from work and sleep time, has only a few hours of free time a day.

But even these few hours are consumed by trivial matters of life.

Cooking, washing, cleaning, any trivial matter will consume hours of time.

Therefore, most Muggles are smoothed out in the repetitive life day after day.

In order to live, they can only give up the ideals they once dreamed of.

Or, in a life that can be seen at a glance, they become numb.

Of course, this is still the state of ordinary Muggles.

If we consider the not-so-small number of people at the bottom, it would be even more sad.

Just like little Vera, she goes out early and comes back late every day, not for anything else, just to barely survive.

In this state where she has exhausted all her strength to live, how can she have other time to recharge herself and become a better self?

For the lower class, dreams are just an unattainable dream.

They have no life, only a pitiful, humble existence in the dust.

Only in the middle of the night, they imagine that perhaps in a certain world, they can live in luxury and do not have to rush for survival.

It is different for wizards, even the weakest wizards.

As long as he has magic power and has learned spells, his living conditions are not very superior, but as a wizard, he will basically not encounter the difficult problem of famine.

After all, Grete has never heard of a wizard starving to death.

Food, clothing, shelter and transportation, which are necessary for humans, are not even the trivialities of life for wizards.

They have much more free time than Muggles.

Spells deal with the trivialities of life, so they can spend more time on exploring the world.

Or develop what they are interested in and fulfill their dreams.

But what?

A race that should be at the forefront of the world is not. For Grete, wizards are a special profession among humans.

It’s just that the prerequisites for this profession are a little more difficult.

But just like in the Muggle world, geniuses are always rare.

Compared with the one-in-a-million genius among Muggles, the probability of wizards appearing has reached one in a thousand.

It can be considered rare, but not precious.

It is said that such a profession should at least maintain its own advancement, not to mention carrying the world forward.

However, since the Muggles opened their minds, wizards have basically made no progress.

Those who were only considered excellent in the past era have become geniuses in modern times.

It is difficult to say how wizards have come to this point step by step.

Just like the spells that Grete learned, the oldest magic, the last revision of which can be pushed back to several centuries ago.

They have ridden the old flying broom for countless times.

But they have never considered changing.

They have always been immersed in the glory of the past. Even if they are rejected and persecuted by Muggles, they have not realized that as the most advanced group in the world, they have already lost their competitiveness.

Finally one day, wizards found that Muggles had grown to a level that they could not match, but even so, they did not let this group have the idea of ​​being prepared for danger in times of peace.

They stayed in the mountains, not only did they not embrace the progress of Muggles, but they also chased and blocked Muggles’ creations as if they were guarding against a flood.

Arthur Weasley, the head of the Department of Prohibition of Abuse of Muggle Objects of the British Ministry of Magic, was fined fifty gold galleons because his son drove away a car that he had enchanted.

If their family had not won the grand prize of 700 gold galleons, the Weasley family, who were already living a tight life, would probably declare bankruptcy because of these fifty gold galleons.

He was still a supervisor and had worked in the Ministry of Magic for many years.

If he was like this, other ordinary wizards would probably be punished for this.

After coming into contact with the magical world, Gretel could feel this sense of disharmony everywhere.

It seemed that wizards had no interest in social progress. From top to bottom, almost everyone was immersed in the afterglow of the empire.

Maintaining this strange and harmonious peace, in the magic world, Grete did not feel the sentence that the only constant is the never-ending change.

The magic world is like a stagnant pool of water. Even if someone wants to make some waves, they will be dragged into the deep darkness by the shadows hidden in the deep pool.

In the end, only the ripples can speculate what may have happened here.

Therefore, even after Dawn began to recruit people, no old antique was allowed to enter here.

The ship of the new world does not need the remnants of the old era to point fingers.

Seeking change is the unified state of all people in Dawn.

Grete communicated with Sene and imagined the state of the whole world on the day when Dawn’s great cause was completed.

At that time, Sene attributed all the credit to Grete.

He said that without Grete, they would not awaken, and perhaps they would feel confused at some point.

However, in the end, they would be like their ancestors for generations, and they would fall silent again after a short rise.

Grete was like a spark that suddenly burst out, bringing a ray of light to the darkness.

Every time Grete heard Seni say this, he always felt that he was exaggerating.

Personal worship is not good, this is what Grete said tirelessly every time he heard someone bragging about himself.

Grete felt that perhaps the overall environment was sinking, but these people who had joined the dawn from the early days, their progress was not just relying on themselves.

I just gave them a reverie, a reverie to create a new era of freedom.

Grete thought that even without him, this group of people would never be content with the status quo.

Just like Arthur Weasley, who worked in the Ministry of Magic, but did not prevent him from liking to study things related to Muggles.

Muggle technology, culture, everything fascinated him.

Others felt that it was heretical, but Grete knew that this was the true mentality of wizards.

Instead of thinking about those who were tamed by stagnant water, living a life of mediocrity and wasting the rest of their lives.

Once, Grete felt that the magic world was hopeless.

Even though the current development of Dawn is getting better and better.

But Grett himself still has no confidence. After all, the number of Muggles is a thousand times that of wizards.

It is difficult to bring the magic world to the imagined bright future with just their few people.

Only by letting more people recognize their ideas and take action can there be a slight possibility to push the wheel of the times forward.

Great undertakings are never achieved overnight.

Even if they will eventually fail, Grett still feels that it is necessary to do something, at least to let more people see the light.

Maybe one day, the latecomers will turn their ideas out of the old paper piles from the dusty history and rekindle new light.

Lead the magic world forward so that wizards don’t have to linger in the shadows.

…

Grett has never concealed his thoughts. The core members of Dawn have grown up with him until now.

Everyone knows that the future must be bright, but they may not be able to see it.

But it is precisely because of this psychological construction that they can devote all their strength without reservation.

As the saying goes, maybe, if I work harder and do more, the light will be closer to us earlier.

This was Gret’s previous thought. He was firm but fragile, full of ideals, but often gloomy.

But no matter what, he never thought of giving up at any time.

It’s different now, because of Kunlun.

It’s not because of Kunlun’s strength, but because Gret finally knew that it turned out that it wasn’t just them who were working hard in this world.

Kunlun has never sunk.

Even when wizards all over the world chose to lie in the mud, the people of Kunlun still firmly maintained their belief in moving forward.

In the books copied from Kunlun, Gret saw a person who was strong enough but still didn’t lie down.

In Kunlun’s library, there are many more records related to Muggles than those in the magical world.

Society, religion, culture, military and politics, everything can be seen here.

But when Gret was in England, if he wanted to find these things, he had to disguise himself and sneak into the Muggle library to copy them.

In addition, Kunlun has never stopped updating their spells.

Here, it is rare to see spells that have not changed for more than ten years.

Maybe there are, but those spells are really too old, so they have no way to modify them.

From ancient times to the present, they have modified hundreds of versions of the spell of shrinking the earth into an inch.

That is to say, if these times are evenly distributed in history, every ten years or so, someone will have a flash of inspiration and exhaust their energy to push this spell forward.

No wonder Kunlun can become the holy land of the magic world. If everyone is in such a positive and enterprising state, how could it fall behind?

Maybe in modern times, they don’t seem so advanced, and may even be a little backward.

But Grete believes that even without their dawn, one day, Kunlun will be able to overtake on the curve.

Perhaps because he is an oriental in his bones, Grete became rarely optimistic after meeting these soul compatriots.

Even if the integration of Kunlun’s unique spells into his own magic system is not smooth.

It didn’t affect Grete’s good mood.

It is not a simple matter to integrate two magics of almost different systems.

It is just like oil and water cannot mix.

One relies on its own magic power, and the other relies on the omnipresent magic particles.

Unlike Gret’s own state, Kunlun’s call for magic particles opened another door for Gret.

In the past, Gret had been groping and trying to let the people around him master the application of magic particles.

This can greatly improve their combat power.

However, the control of magic particles is not something that everyone can do.

Kunlun’s unique meditation only allows them to vaguely perceive and gradually strengthen this induction.

They call it practice, or enlightenment.

While rushing on the road, they temporarily give up the random control of magic particles as in the past.

Learn from Kunlun’s people, use your spiritual sense to sense the omnipresent but traceless magic particles.

Try to make them respond to your call.

Grete must do it, and then teach it to his companions in Shuguang.

Kunlun’s training system starts from childhood, and the unique philosophy of the East makes their thinking very different from that of the West.

But the youngest member of Shuguang is now sixteen or seventeen years old, and has missed the best time to build thinking. .

Therefore, he must use Western thinking to try to follow Kunlun’s path and explore a practical solution.

This problem is difficult, but the difficulty is limited. After all, he has conditions that Kunlun does not have.

He can make the magic particles concrete.

Sensing real objects is always simpler and more convenient than sensing nothingness.

In this way, while rushing and groping, when approaching America, the fleet that is gradually gathering can be seen on the sea.

Grete has successfully integrated the shrinking of the earth into an inch with his magic particle state.

In the past, it would take him a long time to travel around the world, but now, with the folding of space, he can go anywhere with just a thought.

In addition to this, Gret also used this space spell to modify his portal.

Make it more stable.

Solidified magic particles can maintain the stability of space very well.

At least, the inanimate objects that are teleported there are no longer in the miserable state of being covered with wounds.

Gret will have to lead the research institute to experiment with this after returning to the modern era.

If both theory and practice are broken through, then Gret can start preparing for implementation.

Although it cannot be exposed now, it does not affect the priority use within Dawn.

Just like the magic mobile phone at the beginning, it was also tried by the core members for a long time before it was put on the market.

If it is found that everything goes well in the end and remains stable without interference, then Gret can start to establish real Dawn branches around the world.

After all, as long as there is a portal, the only difference between the branch and the headquarters is the name.

Even if the local Ministry of Magic wanted to strangle the branch that was beginning to emerge.

They could quickly evacuate to a safe place through the portal.

Or, the headquarters began to march in large numbers and directly use iron-blooded means to make the Ministry of Magic controlled by Dawn have a few more people.

When he thought of this, Grete couldn’t wait.

He wanted to quickly find the copper ring who was in dire straits somewhere in America.

Once everything was done, he could return to 1996 without any worries.
