Chapter 523 521. Why can’t we use the power of Muggles?
The North Sea is a sea area that is rarely set foot in by Muggles due to the existence of certain magic.
A simple sailboat was moving forward in the rough waves. Jon stood steadily on the boat, his body motionless.
In fact, it would undoubtedly be more convenient for him to directly transform into a phoenix, or simply use a floating spell to fly over. However, being blocked by Sir Stoker, the sea area that Muggles cannot set foot on is actually not that big. Flying on the sea is too easy to be discovered by Muggles sailing on the sea.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Jon simply used transfiguration to create a sailboat. Even if it was seen like this, it was still a bit shocking, but it was not a supernatural phenomenon.
Soon, Jon could feel that there were more creatures around the ocean that normal people should not see.
Some curious fishmen had already poked their heads half out of the sea, quietly looking at this boy who obviously didn’t look like a normal person.
Not long after, Jon saw the destination of his trip from a distance, the towering tower that connected the sea and the sky.
He drove the boat straight to the steps in front of the tower. The door lamp in front of the closed door was constantly swaying by the sea breeze. Jon stood on tiptoe and knocked on the lampshade, waking up the door lamp guarding the door. .
“Ha! How long have I been asleep? There are actually guests coming!”
Just by listening to the sound, you can feel the excitement of the door light. It swayed by itself, and at the same time looked at Jon. When he saw his face clearly, his tone couldn’t help but become disappointed.
“Why is it a child? Did you fall into the water and drift here? Need help? Are you surprised to see a talking lamp?”
Jon pulled out his wand and revealed his identity as a wizard.
“Please tell me that I am Jon Green, the visiting professor of astronomy at Hogwarts who happens to be passing by here. I want to visit the owner of this tower.”
Although he saw the wand in Jon’s hand, the door light still looked at his immature face suspiciously, but in the end he didn’t say anything more and disappeared from the door with a “swish”.
Jon stood in front of the door and waited, while focusing on his feet.
In this world, there are no rockets in this part of the tower.
He didn’t wait long, and soon the door was opened from the inside, and the old house elf Rabil looked at Jon.
He had obviously gotten Jon’s relevant description from the door light, but he was still a little surprised after seeing his extremely young face.
“Are you the astronomy professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?”
Jon smiled slightly.
“It’s impossible for a normal eight-year-old boy to come to this kind of place alone, even in the magical world, right? Don’t be surprised by my appearance. I have something that can prove my identity. Now I just want to visit The owner of this tower.”
Rabil looked Jon up and down again, and indeed felt that he was unusual from his conversation and ability to come to this place alone.
So he bowed and invited Jon into the tower.
This place looks the same as when Jon came to the other world.
They walked along the stairs, letting the steps move up on their own, with some black civet cats appearing around them from time to time, and arrived outside Sir Stoker’s study.
Jon saw the old gentleman sitting on the sofa with a book in his hands. He looked exactly the same as the last time Jon saw him.
Wizards generally live much longer than Muggles. On the outside, Sir Stoker looks like he is only sixty or seventy years old at most, but in fact he is already a hundred years old.
When Jon looked at him, he heard the movement of Rabiel bringing people, and Sir Stoker also turned his eyes to him.
He was visibly surprised at Jon’s appearance.
“Although I have never attended Hogwarts, I don’t think even that school would hire a child as a professor, right?”
Jon shrugged, he had already sat down opposite Sir Stoker, and then took out a letter of appointment from his arms, which he had specially asked Dumbledore to sign when he came from Hogwarts. Position identified as Astronomy.
“There are always things in the magical world that make us different from who we are, right?” Jon deliberately kept his words vague, “It’s just the sequelae of a failed experiment. I believe that we can live in this kind of place.” The people on the tower shouldn’t be people who judge books by their appearance, right?”
This explanation is very reasonable, and Sir Stoker does not care much about his appearance, but is very interested in his identity as a visiting professor of astronomy.
Soon they opened up the topic and started chatting.
Jon just gave himself an excuse to pass by by chance, but neither Sir Stoker nor himself were actually focused on this.
This old man who has lived alone here for decades is only interested in astronomy, and Jon is here just for this.
Soon Jon began to take the initiative to lead the conversation.
“As for the sky above us, not only wizards but also Muggles have to study it much more deeply than we do.”
After hearing his words, Sir Stoker’s eyes became surprised, and he asked tentatively.
“Muggles? Do you know anything about Muggles, or do you think they have invented a vehicle that can fly in the sky and a clearer astronomical telescope, and you can understand the sky with these two things?”
Jon shook his head.
“More than that, more than forty years ago, Muggles had already flown out of the planet we live on and reached space. Some Muggles had even gone to the moon.”
Sir Stoker’s eyes became even more surprised, and the look he looked at Jon changed from appreciation to eagerness.
“There are actually wizards in the magical world who know about this!”
he sighed.
“I am also concerned about these things. I have always felt that wizards are too stubborn. The Statute of Secrecy can block Muggles’ knowledge of us, but it cannot make us turn a blind eye to the existence and progress of Muggles. They have long been We have successfully reached the starry sky, which is far beyond the wizard’s understanding of the sky.”
At this point, his voice couldn’t help but darken a little.
“I have been studying for this goal here all these years. Astronomy should not allow astronomers to stop on land and only look up. They will never be able to truly understand the starry sky.”
After listening to his emotion quietly, Jon suddenly interjected.
“Then why can’t we use the power of Muggles? Since they are already at the forefront of us.”
