Raven's Claw at Hogwarts - Chapter 596

c594 Multi-national ministerial summit

“you!”

The French Minister of Magic became angry instantly and was about to rush towards Mike.

Of course, this was just for show, he was not stupid enough to challenge a legendary wizard.

He thought that since he was acting so excited, other people around him should also be holding him back.

But something embarrassing happened to him. Instead of trying to stop him, the other ministers around him looked at him as if they were watching a show.

Under everyone’s gaze, the French Minister of Magic’s running speed gradually became slower and slower, and finally he suddenly turned around and ran back to the corner where he was originally standing.

This funny scene caused a burst of laughter in the palace, and even Mike himself was amused by the behavior of the French Minister of Magic.

To this he could only say, “As expected of you!” French guy!

And amidst the laughter, an explosion suddenly sounded.

The laughter stopped immediately, and everyone looked in surprise at the woman who created the exploding pipe – the President of the Magical Congress of the United States: Catherine Piquery.

I saw Piqueli stand up from her seat and said expressionlessly:

“Is it really that funny? Mike Townley, mocking your neighboring country’s Minister of Magic, is this the attitude you want to show us?”

“I think it’s better for you to mind your own business first!” Mike grinned and said, “As far as I know, some people still have shi stuck to their PGs!”

As soon as Mike said this, the palace instantly became quiet. The other ministers of the Ministry of Magic around them couldn’t help but hold their breath, for fear that they would suddenly disturb the confrontation between the two bosses.

The corners of Piqueli’s eyes also twitched slightly, but she quickly adjusted her emotions back, and then she started laughing wildly, and said while laughing:

“Are you talking about the civil strife in the wizarding world in the United States? You don’t think I really care about the chaos caused by those animals, do you? If I want, I can eradicate them all at once at any time!”

Picquery didn’t lie, and Mike, as a master of Legilimency, knew this very well.

At the same time, based on some of the situations he had learned recently, Mike even believed that Picquery and the families behind him had been deliberately allowing Carlisle and others to create chaos.

What is coming is to consume all kinds of war materials produced due to excess production capacity.

Those big families don’t care about the wizarding world of the United States and the wizards living there at all. They sell various war supplies to the Magical Congress of the United States, and at the same time sell the same things to Carlisle and their rebel organizations, making money from both ends. .

To be honest, these practices are very similar to those of the United States in the Muggle world, except that the United States in the Muggle world is smarter. Not only will they make money from this kind of war, but they will also set the battlefield in other countries, so that they can maximize to the extent possible to preserve their interests.

And while Mike was thinking, Piqueli launched it again.

She stared into Mike’s eyes and said fiercely:

“Don’t think I don’t know, Mike Townley. It’s you who have been secretly funding that damn vampire! Do you think you can defeat us by doing this? Dream on!”

After saying that, Piqueli grabbed the pipe and took a deep puff, then exhaled a thick smoke.

Then something shocking happened.

The smoke condensed in mid-air and began to twist and deform. Finally, it turned into a huge human hand and raised its middle finger to Mike.

Looking at the middle finger, Picquery laughed again. The sharp laughter echoed in the vast palace, which seemed so harsh.

The expression on Mike’s face also became ugly. He stared at Piqueli, and when he moved his fingers slightly, he saw that the big hand of smoke moved again. It turned around at an extremely fast speed and pinched the skin fiercely. Kui Li’s neck and lifted her whole body up.

Waves of painful sobs came from Piqueli’s throat. She kicked her legs as hard as she could and used her hands to pull the big hand of smoke to get out of the trap, but the big hand of smoke was as firm as an iron pincer.

Gradually, Piqueli’s sobs began to become weaker, and her face gradually turned livid.

Only then did the surrounding ministers of magic from various countries react. Some of them looked at Mike in horror, while others tried to use magic to deal with Piquely.

It’s a pity that although they tried their best, they still failed in the end.

The magic of the legendary wizards cannot be solved by their little magical attainments.

In the end, the old man with a white beard who led them could only turn his attention to Mike again and said anxiously:

“Sir Mike Townley, please forgive Catherine, she is just too excited.”

Looking at the people around who were either frightened or nervous, Mike knew that his purpose of establishing power had been achieved, and he had no intention of directly killing Piqueli here, so he raised his hand and waved it as if nothing had happened. .

“Poof!”

The big hand of smoke dissipated instantly, and Piqueli also fell to the ground, making a muffled sound like a heavy object landing.

Immediately afterwards, Piqueli began to cover her neck and cough, and the surrounding ministers also leaned over anxiously upon seeing this.

Mike straightened his tie and said to everyone with a chuckle:

“Now, let’s get to the point of this meeting. Do any of you have any opinions on my becoming the Minister of Magic of the Republic of China?”

Mike’s voice was like a bell, instantly attracting everyone’s attention, but before they could speak, Mike continued:

“Don’t rush to answer, think carefully. The person standing in front of you now is a legendary wizard. Are you sure you want to be an enemy of a legendary wizard?”

Mike’s words made everyone’s already unpleasant expressions become even more gloomy.

Legendary wizard, this is a term that gives you a splitting headache.

It’s not that they really can’t kill a legendary wizard. In fact, as long as they are willing to pay the price, they can still try to imprison or kill a legendary wizard. Grindelwald is a good example.

But the problem is, it’s a losing proposition.

The price required to eliminate a legendary wizard is not commensurate with the benefits they can get from it. If they could, no one would be willing to do such a stupid thing.

But the current situation is that they have a reason to confront a legendary wizard like Mike Townley.

For a moment, the palace became quiet again, and even Piqueli’s painful cough was deliberately suppressed by her.

Looking at the hesitant expressions of these guys, a trace of doubt flashed across Mike’s eyes.

This was completely different from what he expected.

Logically speaking, these guys should have no reason to resist him. After all, who the minister of the Ministry of Magic of the United States has nothing to do with them at all, and it will not affect them anyway. They should admit it directly like they did with Chris at that time. Mike’s dominion is.

But now, they hesitated.

Mike was a little confused for a moment, but soon he came up with a guess that could completely explain everything in front of him.

‘Could it be that their policies in support of Muggle wizards made these Ministers of Magic so hesitant? ’

Mike’s eyes suddenly lit up.

The ministers of magic in front of him were basically all pure-blood nobles.

It can be said that what they stand here now represents not only their respective Ministry of Magic and their families, but also the interests of the entire pure-blood wizard class.

And Mike promoted egalitarianism in the country, causing great harm to the interests of the pure-blood wizards in the magic world of the country.

In Mike’s opinion, these guys must be afraid that Mike will be a crazy idealistic GM who wants to implement his set of egalitarianism to every corner of the world, thus causing the status of pure-blood wizards around the world to plummet.

It is precisely because of this that they are so uncharacteristically disgusted with Mike becoming the Minister of Magic of the United States.

After figuring this out, a smile broke out on Mike’s gloomy face. He paused and said to everyone:

“I know what you are worried about, but your worries are completely unnecessary. I don’t care what happens to the Muggle wizards in your territory. In fact, the so-called egalitarianism is just my attempt to win the title of Minister of Magic. It’s just an excuse you made.

So, express your position quickly, don’t wait any longer. ”

After hearing this, the ministers of magic from various countries looked at each other with doubtful expressions on their faces, especially Piquely, who even looked up and rolled her eyes at Mike despite the pain in her neck.

However, her actions were quickly stopped by the old man with the white beard. The old man with the white beard stood in front of Piqueli and looked at Mike for a long time, then nodded and said:

“I believe you, Sir Mike Townley. I don’t need you to make any contract, but I hope you can remember what you said here today. This will be good for you and me.”

After saying that, the old man saw Mike nodding and turned to look at the other ministers of magic.

After looking around and seeing no one who objected, he pointed to Mike and said in a solemn and solemn tone:

“Now, Sir Mike Townley, in the name of the President of the International Federation of Magic, I declare that we recognize your right to rule the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China. The Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China under your command will have the same rights as in the past. and obligations.”

As he spoke, the old man suddenly paused and continued:

“Especially the obligation! Mr. McTownley, given that you have repeatedly violated the International Wizarding Secrecy Law, I have to solemnly remind you and invite you not to do it again. I hope you can abide by it.”

“As you wish, sir.”

Mike said expressionlessly, but in fact he was already happy in his heart.

He came here this time to listen to their nonsense, and even swallowed his anger in order to restore the foreign trade, entry and exit rights of the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China. Only after possessing these rights can his Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China truly become a complete Only a country can develop at an even more amazing speed.

As for observing the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy?

Don’t be ridiculous, Mike doesn’t care about the feelings of the International Federation of Wizards. As long as it’s profitable, these things can be violated.

On the contrary, the first oath not to promote egalitarianism can be observed.

It doesn’t matter anyway. Mike is not interested in that set of things. All he wants is the labor of Muggle wizards.

As for the Muggle wizard labor force, he doesn’t need to rely on promoting egalitarianism to obtain it.

As long as the life of Muggle wizards in the magical world of the United States can get better, Muggle wizards from all over the world who have been oppressed and discriminated against will automatically come to the United States and willingly accept the exploitation that Mike is so much better than other pure-blood nobles. .

The more he thought about his plan, the happier Mike became, and the corners of his mouth turned up.

The white-bearded wizard and other ministers also smiled sincerely when they saw this, which showed that this matter had been entangled in their hearts for a long time.

While smiling, Mike suddenly remembered another thing, and immediately said to the white-bearded wizard seriously with a straight face:

“By the way, do you know what the mysterious containment object is?”

As soon as these words came out, the already joyful atmosphere in the palace stagnated again. Ministers from various countries all looked at Mike with horrified expressions, as if what he just said was something terrifying.

After being silent for a long time, Piqueli, who had recovered, chuckled disdainfully, and then Mike looked at her with an unhappy expression.

Piqueli, who was stared at by Mike, froze instantly. She suppressed her blush and seemed to want to continue to say something, but after being in a stalemate for a long time, she couldn’t say anything.

Finally, the white-bearded wizard stood up. He stood in front of Piqueli and said to Mike:

“The so-called mysterious contained objects are actually the general term for those mysterious items that have been contained by the Ministry of Magic.

Mysteries are what we call powerful magical items that we cannot understand.

No one knows how these mysterious objects appeared, and no one knows who created them. They may be a pen, a piece of grass, or a person. In short, they can be anything and they are everywhere.

And the only thing we know is that they all have very strange powers.

Of course, there are differences between mysterious objects. Some mysterious objects are dangerous and can cause huge disasters, while some mysterious objects are beneficial and can be used to benefit mankind.

An important responsibility of the Ministry of Magic when it was first established was to collect these mysterious objects, contain and imprison those that are harmful, and make proper use of those that are beneficial.

This matter was originally supposed to be informed by your previous Minister of Magic after you took office. This is a very old tradition. It’s a pity that some unexpected situations have occurred in your generation. ”

Mike nodded. What the white-bearded wizard said was pretty much what he had guessed.

When the other party saw Mike nodding, he continued:

“Of course, there are more things I need to tell you about the mysterious object. Anyway, there is still plenty of time, so please listen to me slowly.”
