I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - Chapter 401
c396 Spiritual victory method and self-comfort
Hogwarts in May is always full of enthusiasm, and it has been more than two months since the last werewolf incident.
Since the beginning of summer, the girls in the castle have already put on summer pleated skirts, and the skirts are filled with various stockings from Hogsmeade, and their feet are uniformly matched with flat black leather shoes.
There is a trace of green beauty in the youthful vitality, hazy, like unripe green apples hanging on the branches.
Although it is sour, it tastes unique.
However, Ian had no intention of appreciating all of this. A handwritten letter from Fudge disrupted his immediate plans.
“Hey…what is supposed to come will eventually come!” With a sigh, Ian put down the letter in his hand. This letter was more of a form of attention and notification than a request for help.
The lid on the fungus cannot be covered… Thanks to the development of the Internet, more and more clues are being revealed.
At the beginning, the mainstream media was able to confuse the public, but as various evidences continued to surface, the Muggles in the middle and lower classes gradually realized that something was wrong.
The killer whales that still swim without heads in the South Pacific, the polar bears that still hunt and eat after being disemboweled in the Arctic Circle…all of this has made this lid that has been covered for almost two years now full of holes.
Just like a girl’s thin stockings, they can fall apart with just a little force.
Faced with all this, both Grindelwald and the top Muggle leaders in various countries were well prepared.
After the last batch of supplies was transferred, the order to move was issued.
The Confusion Curse and the Muggle Expelling Curse work together to arrange the intended Muggles to the eco-city. As for the later comfort, it is done by experts through radio and television.
In the early stage, the main focus is to kill first and then play later; in the later stage, the Ministry of Magic will not stop any Muggle who wants to leave.
To put it bluntly… after stability, everyone will be given the right to choose whether to live or die, and no one will stop them.
Today is the day of migration in England.
…
Staring at the lush Forbidden Forest outside the window, Ian was a little silent for a moment.
A seemingly thin letter, a simple order, but behind it represents the sacrifice of more than 2 billion Muggles.
The maximum saturation capacity of 323 ecological cities around the world can only accommodate 70% of the population, leaving a gap of 30%…
But Ian knew very well that he could not prevent it from happening, let alone save these people. After all, it was not as simple as dozens or hundreds of people.
And more importantly, this sacrifice was also negotiated and authorized by the high-level officials of both parties.
The so-called killing the chicken to scare the monkeys requires sufficient warning to get the Muggles in the eco-city to cooperate.
…
Scottish Highlands.
After half a year, Ian came to this ecological city again.
What is different from before is that now this place has become a gathering place with huge crowds of people. Countless wizards on broomsticks are flying in mid-air, but no one is aware of the dense Muggles below.
Quietness and confusion have become the main themes at this moment. The 12 entrances and exits on the outer wall are even quieter. Screening, physical examination, signing… are like tools on the production line. Muggles line up in an orderly manner. Forward.
Ian stood in mid-air, looking at the crowd like an ant nest below, speechless for a long time.
He didn’t know what to say. He said he was lucky. There was still 30% sacrifice, so he said it was unfortunate, but Grindelwald was in charge of the overall situation.
It is undeniable that if Grindelwald had not been at the front, God knows what troubles would have occurred. The first thing that can be absolutely certain is that the division of ecological cities will never be fairly distributed according to population.
It’s hard to say, but it must be death due to drought or waterlogging. After all, who doesn’t have selfish motives?
…
Time passed quietly, from early morning to dusk, a few hours flew by.
In Sogra Highlands, the ecological city is still operating in an orderly manner. The huge searchlights around it make it look like daylight. Muggles are also like leeks, being sent in batches after batches…
You can see the whole thing at a glance. Under this efficient operation mode, I believe the transfer will be completed soon.
To be honest, the Confusion Curse is really a dimension-reducing blow to Muggles. Magic modifies cognition, allowing Muggles to modify all unreasonable things into reasonable ones. To put it bluntly, they just make up for everything in their own minds.
And this process will last for a whole week.
By then, the two ecological cities on the British Isles will accommodate nearly 40 million Muggles, and the remaining 17 million can only become victims of the times.
…
After confirming that he could not help, Ian also chose to return to Hogwarts.
After returning to the hut, he immediately took out the crucible and placed it on the table. Then he waved his magic wand, and the box in the corner opened automatically, and various herbs flew out one after another.
Beefgrass, sunflower, jumping root, poisonous ginseng, puffed bean pods… If Belby were here, he would definitely be able to recognize that these are the main ingredients for his invention of wolfsbane potion.
The reason why Ian chose to brew the magic potion right away was, to put it bluntly, a bit distraught.
Although he had thought well before, it was only when the time came that he realized that he really couldn’t ignore the passage of more than a billion lives.
That’s why the current move to brew the magic potion was made.
“This can be regarded as Ah Q’s spiritual victory…” Looking at the crucible on the table, Ian sighed with a wry smile.
When faced with a result that you are unwilling to accept but unable to change its direction, you can only do some insignificant things to comfort yourself.
The same is true for Ian at this moment. He wants to use Snape’s method to brew Wolfsbane potion, trying to find a way to allow Muggles to live a stable life.
As for whether it is useful or whether it can be caught up in time, these objective factors are all ignored by him.
It’s like an ostrich burying its head in the sand. No matter what happens outside, it just wants a moment of inner peace.
The reason for this was also due to Snape’s follow-up research. In two months, Snape more deeply analyzed the concept and abstraction of potions.
It is roughly the idealism after analogy, a kind of idealism within the rules.
…
The bright golden potion was drank down in one gulp. The Fuling Elixir was worthy of being a top-notch potion. The moment he drank it, Ian realized that he was in a wonderful state and his thinking was clearer than ever before.
Although this kind of lucky potion is very easy to use, its disadvantages are also obvious-‘drug resistance’, and Fuling potion cannot be taken continuously for a short period of time.
Compared with drug resistance, Ian prefers it to be an outbreak after overdrawing the future, the so-called accumulation of character. Because of such concerns, he only takes Fuling Elixir very rarely.
“I need to prepare a more comprehensive Wolfsbane potion…” After clarifying his goal, Ian began to suggest himself.
