Chapter 230 The Situation Is Difficult and Selfish
In a world with extraordinary power, the night always looks mysterious, eerie, and full of danger.
Like the original history line in 93 years, Harry Potter blew up Dudley's aunt into a balloon in a fit of anger, and then left home angrily. A swing, and a wild dog with hideous eyes that emerged from the bushes...
To put it bluntly, in a world with extraordinary beings, justice is often like a lighthouse, illuminating people's hearts, but it is always less. Evil is like shadow and night, shrouding all around and clouding people's hearts.
The non-rich districts of every bustling city have a bit of the atmosphere of Hell’s Kitchen in the Marvel Universe at night, and it turns into a ghostly atmosphere after midnight. There are no people and no cars on the empty streets, and a wild cat or a wild dog can run away. Startle people.
Although the night is Kane's home game, he likes a regular schedule and has always been self-disciplined. He has no habit of looking for flowers and getting drunk. This determines that he, like most ordinary people, usually goes to bed at 23 o'clock.
This time, it's a bit special. After coming out of the Dursley's house, they met Sirius. After wandering around for a while, they encountered an important case. It can be said that being able to crash into the pit of the living train is not only luck, but also a certain degree of inevitability.
Sirius Black, caring about his godson Harry Potter, waited in secret for more than a week in order to meet Victor Cullen.
Although he cooperated with the whitewashing strategy formulated for him by the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce, he successfully exonerated himself and received good material compensation. But there are always some things that cannot be recovered once lost.
And Sirius has always been an uninhibited prodigal son who does his own way. His best buddy, James is dead, Peter is a traitor, and Lupine is a man of integrity and a small fortune.
Luping's family has a weak foundation. Considering the unrest in the wild and the future (recently, many extraordinary events have occurred intensively), Luping loaned his parents a house in Fir Manor, and he also has his new wife He needs to be raised, he can be said to be a house slave now, and he is so devoted to work that even Sirius is embarrassed to ask him out for a drink.
After going back and forth, Sirius suddenly found out that he had made a fool of himself again. Although he was in the downtown area, he was even more lonely than when he was in Azkaban.
He was able to hang out in the refuge bar, which also had a lot to do with it. He didn't want to hang out in the Leaky Cauldron, or the pubs in Hogsmeade, or make a fake exchange of pleasantries when he ran into someone he knew. At the same time, he doesn't want to go to ordinary people's bars, it's boring, whether it's wine or people, it's boring.
The Sanctuary Bar, which has a certain mysterious and exotic features, caters to his taste.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the business philosophy of the living train.
Whoever sneaks what kind of bird, it is a circle, and they often come by following the smell.
Perhaps it is because God sees that Sirius's life is too hard and blessed, this time he is with Kane to experience the dangerous world.
Although Kane is also a disaster star, wherever he goes, where accidents happen, Kane has a basic character. He doesn't sell his teammates easily, but he will sell himself when needed.
Sirius retreated without any danger, and fell asleep after a big ordeal.
When he woke up, he found that the place hadn't changed, but the atmosphere had changed drastically.
Most of the facilities in the banquet hall have been removed, and at the same time, ventilation and lighting treatments have been carried out. The magic lamp illuminates the table in this corner brightly.
The old food and drinks on the table were also removed, and replaced with good food, some dried fruits, and several kinds of wine.
Those who were sitting stupidly before stood against the wall instead, and the four who maintained self-awareness, including Cam, have been carried to the first aid. Get more information from them.
There are only two people on the tables and stools, Kane and Sirius. No. 8 and No. 13 stood behind Kane with their hands behind their backs. They were a bit unreasonable and spoiled the atmosphere, but they were harmless.
"What's the matter? What happened?"
Kane, who was flipping through the information, looked up at Sirius, and said seriously: "Let me introduce myself again, I'm Kane Shafik. We have enough time to discuss the issue, so don't rush."
As he said that, Kane turned his face and nodded, so No. 8 presented a copy of the audio-visual material carried by the magic stone, "Mr. Black, please read this material first."
Seeing such an atmosphere, Sirius suppressed his doubts and began to read the materials.
Kane also continued to read his report.
He was turning to a report from John Paul.
The old private detective John Paul with the nickname of "Plastic Skull" was one of the first peripheral operators to join the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce. And he made a contribution in dealing with the indiscriminate means of the Guardian Alliance to harass the customers of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce. That was more than half a year ago.
His main target later was the underworld and secondary dark creature organizations who dared to take action against the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce after collecting money.
He has a powerful bodyguard by his side, which is a serious problem. Descendants of giants and wizards, similar to Hogwarts Forester Hagrid, but his IQ is only a little higher than Hagrid's half-brother Grop.
Because of such a natural deficiency, John Paul entered the Sanctuary Bar once, and after that time, he was blacklisted and could not enter.
With his seasoned experience, John Paul discovered the unusualness of the Sanctuary Bar.
These findings, however, are largely speculation.
Kane's team has always paid attention to evidence in terms of intelligence collection, and will not listen to wind and rain. After all, it's not running a gossip tabloid.
Therefore, the content of Paul's report did not appear in Kane's daily morning reading briefing.
Therefore, the opportunity to discover the anomaly of the Sanctuary Bar earlier was missed.
Calculating the time, it has been four months. And the operating time of the refuge bar will only be more than four months.
Looking at the things standing in the corner, Kane scratched his head a little.
The old sub-god, Graki, was used by this X society more thoroughly than he thought.
Not only was there such a special clone used as a carriage, but even Glaaki's ability was used.
Injection, the slug-like Glaaki has a large number of needles on the body surface, not as dense as a hedgehog, but also like the needle-like leg hairs of a fly, distributed around, looking disgusting.
These thorns can be stretched, can be injected, and can make living corpses. There are unidentified human beings, in order to gain longevity, they undergo injection rituals and become living corpses.
After a period of time, the living corpse will find that it becomes sensitive to the sun, and then the sun will damage it, the flesh hardens, cracks, turns green, and even grows moss-like fluff, which is called 'green rot'.
Those standing against the wall are newly created living corpses. It takes a while for them to regain their rationality, but in fact they are no longer their original selves.
This is the point, they are already inhuman, but they don't know it, they can't be detected by a lie detector, nor can they be detected by ordinary discrimination spells (with divine characteristics). This kind of villain who doesn't know that he is doing evil can often explode Deals tons of damage.
Kane intends to learn from Deadpool, break the fourth dimension, and scold the creation god of this world. When he has not become a god, the world is still peaceful, and the highest strength seems to be at the level of Nerva and Faust of.
In the end, he became a god, and before he could be unrestrained, the world was full of gods, and there were as many gods as dogs. This reverse hanging is really a day.
However, from another angle, he knew that he couldn't scold the God of Creation. He didn't have it before, not necessarily because he didn't have it, but he couldn't see it.
The confession of the future man has explained the problem from one angle, why would he commit suicide in the future and then die? With his temperament, most of the time when he finds that the situation is wrong, the opponent's situation is already established, unless he chooses to sit and wait for death, otherwise he has no choice but to take risks and fight, so he died.
What does this mean? It shows that the power of the gods has been brewing for a long time, but he failed to detect it in time, and killed them when they were weak, and when they showed their ferocious minions, they were already ready to stop fighting, of course it was too late.
Besides, in 1853, he thought he was doing pretty well, but he only thought he was doing well. God knows what role the remnants of the old gods in the original history line played in the next 137 years.
Maybe a certain remnant robbed resources from his peers for his own rise, but in the end dragged no one to get up. And he did it neatly, obliterating the remnants of the evil, and having Alice's "weight" so that history would not be derailed, but he fattened up a certain god who should have been dragged down.
The gain and loss of this part of the power needs to be calculated with Alice in order to be leveled. However, Alice is not under his control, so he is tantamount to resisting Alice's negative power on his body. This is the root cause of his hard life these days. It is also the Blood God Cult and the X Society. , It's all my own fault, I can't blame anyone.
Later accounts, typical latter accounts, he can't blame anyone, not even himself.
He is not omnipotent, he has tried his best. And even in this era, it is impossible for even the national intelligence agency to grasp every detail, let alone the newly established Swarm Intelligence Department.
"The real Nima's pit is bottomless, why did I fall into such a black pit? Is this a death penalty?" Kane muttered a few words to himself, and began to think about things.
He wondered whether to strengthen cooperation with Fansu to give him the ability to detect the extraordinary.
The invisible enemy is terrible! Those gods, proper high-tech terrorists. People are not treated as human beings, and they are not bound by human moral standards at all. They are ruthless and unscrupulous. There are billions of human resources for them to use, and they are all reduced to barefoot, with a bad life and nothing to do. scruples...
Such enemies are a crime against themselves and their people every day they are allowed to linger in the world. And if you want to do them, you have to find them first. The power of our own family is not enough, we have to mobilize the power of the world and the power of official institutions.
But on the other hand, he has no shortage of worries. Allowing ordinary people to gain the ability to detect the extraordinary is to give people a handle, and it will expose the true face of the extraordinary world to the eyes of ordinary people little by little.
Once the extraordinary world is no longer mysterious and unknown to mortals, and the strengths and weaknesses of each other are weighed, the desire to conquer may follow.
After all, extraordinary technology and items are extremely valuable wealth in the eyes of ordinary people.
Hustle and bustle is all for profit, and there is never any need to doubt how low the shame of those with vested interests is, just make some speeches that worry about the country and love the people, and you can start a new witch-hunt campaign with armed forces to attack Chaofan. Blow, there is never a shortage of cannon fodder full of honor and obedience.
Kane thought again, there is a delicate balance between the extraordinary and the ordinary. But since the establishment of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce, the criticism that the Chamber of Commerce's behavior is breaking this delicate balance has not stopped, and it is not completely unreasonable.
Among those who accused him, there were also those who had ulterior motives and those who were worried about the future.
He can indeed ignore all the rumors and still go his own way, but he can't help but feel compelled.
Not only did he need to consider the many hidden dangers brought about by the overexposure of the extraordinary world in front of ordinary people, he also had to consider the reaction of the Holy See.
One of the most important reasons why the witch hunt ended that year was that wizards and vampires, the two largest, organized and social groups of extraordinary beings, were willing to abide by the rules of the hidden world and let the Holy See alone pretend to be extraordinary in front of the world.
This is a tacit agreement. Until now it is one of the main reasons why there is no big fight between each other.
Then his career, with the obvious characteristics of connecting the extraordinary and the secular, is he challenging the bottom line of tolerance of the Holy See?
Of course it counts.
It can even be said that if it weren't for the surprise attack on the Great Lake and the Great Venice War incident caused by people from the future crossing, his Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce might have gone to war with the Holy See by now.
It is precisely because of the appearance of the gods and his group strength under the water surface from the mouth of the future man, and the two incidents also showed his muscles, the Holy See chose to be patient.
Of course, there is the desire to be a fisherman, but more fear and lack of preparation.
In a horizontal comparison, what is the biggest difference between his iron-blooded swarm and the Holy See or other forces?
One of them is that the iron-blooded swarms are born for war and are always ready.
What he is building is a militarized society, while the Holy See is mired in the mire of military socialization.
It is a bit too much to say that the mud pit is a bit too much. This is actually a normal evolution of the organization. War has never been the goal, but a better life is.
No one wants to hang their heads on their belts to live a precarious life, but sometimes the risk is small, the benefits are great, or the willingness is greater than the fear of death, so the problem is solved through fighting.
Therefore, although the Holy See organization is huge, there are actually only a few who can really fight with their lives, not even one-tenth of the total number. Everything is scattered in the hands of different powerful people. And these characters have their own calculations, which makes it very complicated for the Holy See to start a war.
During the Venice incident, although Nerva bowed his head publicly and treated each other frankly, his reputation was pushed to such a high level in one fell swoop that the International Federation of Magic was not allowed to give him the position of chief war witch of the Wizengamot.
But he himself did not get carried away. He felt the threat revealed by Nerva's celestial handbook.
The connection between the Holy See and those angels who can make trouble has never been broken. Now is indeed the lowest point of the magic tide, and it is extremely difficult to come, but it will pass soon, and after 22 years, you will be able to play the kingdom of heaven, are you afraid?
How can you not be afraid? That is a god-level existence of 1.37 billion. Don't look at Michael and Lucifer fighting there if they have nothing to do, but if they really want to beat Michael's bitch, Lucifer will definitely come out. No matter how people tear it up, they are family members, and outsiders are outsiders, that's all.
What's more interesting is that if he goes to war with the Holy See, the wizards may not necessarily be on his side.
After all, people will die if they go to war. There are many barefoot people in the mortal world. What they fight is to learn literary and martial arts well, sell them to the emperor's house, make meritorious deeds, and seal their wives and sons.
Wizards are not, wizards are naturally superior to ordinary people, with a little brains, using their expertise to engage in some gray business, they can live a happy life, and there is no doctrine that advocates brainwashing all day long. Other people's ideal pit?
Wizard wars have already involved the vital interests of wizards. How do they behave?
Most of the wizards chose to be the third grandson, and they didn't dare to let one go, and even turned their backs immediately.
Why? Because they still have a way out. Voldemort and the Death Eaters overwhelm them, and they can pass the pain on to mortals. No matter how lowly a mudblood is, it is still a wizard. If Voldemort wants to rule the world, there must be an executor, right? They can't be an official, they can always be an official, flick the whip, dig mines for me, that kind of thing.
So it's too dark to describe human nature?
Kane didn't think so, he admitted that wizards are human beings, they also have humanity, and they get angry when they are oppressed, so they may not be as dirty as they think.
However, no matter whether they were lucky, they felt that Voldemort and the others would not be too mad, or they instinctively believed that they still had a way out by virtue of their status and abilities as wizards. What they did all showed a problem, they gave up the power to decide their own destiny.
The entire Wizarding War, in Kane's view, was like a farce, a joke. Because from the beginning to the end, the masses were not mobilized.
The days of the wizards are still going on, and they are not dying if they don't fight. They sympathize with and recognize Dumbledore's side, but they don't want to take their own lives.
And this is not a war of conquest in which each takes control of the territory, but more like a confrontation between the brutal rulers of the white areas and the underground party.
The most powerful evil emperor died, so Dumbledore's side won without victory, and the white area became a liberated area.
What did the wizards gain from the war? Nothing but dead relatives and friends and various damages.
One day a powerful emperor stands up again, and the liberated areas will become white areas again. The new generation of Wei Guangzheng continues to play the underground party. Isn't that the whole process of "Harry Potter"? It's just that last time it was a fake corpse, this time the evil emperor is really dead.
What a bad word!
And this kind of rottenness has a tradition. Back then, it was because of the disunity and lack of unified belief that the later-rising Holy See taught people to behave themselves, and they were beaten and beaten all over the place. For three centuries, it would be miserable.
The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change. The faults have not been corrected with the passage of time, and the cohesion is still limited. Looking at the ecological pattern of living alone and living in various uninhabited ghost places, it is not difficult to understand the mentality of small-scale peasant economy and isolationism.
Such people, counting on them to participate in the war, really think too much.
Standing on the sidelines, watching the wind and fire, and then standing on the side of the winner, grab some boat planks, this is fine. It's not okay to follow a certain side with a clear-cut banner at the beginning and achieve a victory. They think it's stupid.
Therefore, the praises of Harry Potter in the original history line are full of irony in Kane's view. Perhaps those whose relatives were killed by Voldemort's party are unforgettable, and the praise is more sincere, but that's all, there is nothing more.
For such a group of people, if he develops with the Holy See, let alone helping them, if they can stay neutral and watch the fun, it will be regarded as a substantial return for the behavior that has benefited them from the rise of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce over the years.
"I can't say who is wrong, I can only say that human nature is so vicissitudes of life."
Thinking of the difficult situation he was facing, Kane couldn't help but slander in his heart.
It still needs a long-term plan for mortals to detect extraordinary items.
To put it in a darker light, if you suffer yourself and prevent problems before they happen, others may not appreciate it. Even say some sarcastic remarks. This is not familiar, feel the pain on the skin, and let some blood, which is good for metabolism.
When such selfish thoughts come together, the train of thought immediately changes. Why worry about the torrents of the outside world, worry about who you love, I don’t pretend to be that big petal garlic, the city is really struggling to catch plague rats, no one has agreed, full of ridicule, build your own safe house, prepare related medicines , food rations and so on, this is much easier, just wait for the day when the city is full of plague and come to ask for it.
dead? Die! Who stipulated that the lives of certain people must be cared for?
At the same time, in the ancestral home of the Riddle family, Voldemort's speech also reached a critical moment, and he threw out the phrase "the vicissitudes of the right way" to describe the bitterness and hardship of failing to achieve greatness.
