Chapter 50 The Wind Direction Changes Gradually
Saying goodbye to Garrick Ollivander, Kane used Apparition to come outside Exmoor Heights, then climbed up the stairs and entered the forest area outside the Heights.
Here, like Hogwarts, you cannot use Apparation to directly enter the interior.
As an external window unit, Kane did not arrange too eye-catching magic items or combat power here.
Although it will take another three years for the Iron-Blooded Swarm to be fully online, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have combat power in his hands.
The vampires who invaded Nozawa Garden Castle in the early days were transformed into shadow guards by him, which can also be called dark slaves.
Not his servant, but the servant of darkness.
He represents the will of darkness, so he can drive this kind of dark family that lives on dark energy.
This kind of transformed magic puppets are still opposed to the light, but the dense dark energy on them forms a fog of shadows to protect them from sunlight.
They do not rely on blood-sucking for a living, their bodies have been energyized, and they are magical creatures that would not naturally arise in a low-magic world.
There are tattoos all over their bodies, and this set of dark battle patterns is like a constant spell slot, allowing them to gain spellcasting ability. Of course, only dark magic can be used.
Dark magic is not black magic. Black magic refers to all spells that are classified as evil in universal morality, while dark magic simply refers to magic that uses dark magic as its energy source.
The shadow guards have IQ, but they are not the ones they were in life, but similar to being casted with spirit enlightenment and construct activation. It is the magical personality and not the soul.
Generally speaking, building and raising such a magic puppet is expensive, and the cost performance is actually not high. So they are not a member of the Iron Blood Swarm, they are only made for emergency.
Both Exmoor Villa and Nozawa Castle are equipped with shadow guard patrol teams, which are mainly responsible for night watch.
As for the daytime, the six-member Auror team sent by the International Federation of Magic is still there, serving as bodyguards with generous salaries and benefits, and being envied by colleagues, which also becomes a pressure, so the performance is not bad.
When it comes to the International Federation of Magic, I have to mention one thing.
Compared with the International Federation of Magic in the orthodox HP world, the authority in this world is much greater.
Its full name, more accurately called the International Federation of Ministry of Magic, is equivalent to the United Nations of the wizarding world.
Albus Dumbledore was never the chairman of the Federation. The federation also does not have a chairman, but a secretary general.
He is the President of the International Guild of Wizards and Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot.
These two honors and powers were obtained when fighting against the evil wizard gang with Voldemort as the leader, Death Eaters as the backbone, dark wizards as minions, and dark creatures as wings.
Up to now, it has been twelve years, and many people have been thinking about how to cut power.
It's not because Dumbledore can't be a man, but because it's more expensive to let him stay in a high position.
Take the UK as an example.
The wizards of England were, and still are, still in the state of a small peasant economy.
Their dependence on the Muggle world is extremely low, and they are basically several basic resources such as food.
But it's not because they're rich, it's because they're closed.
If you take a quick look, you will find that there are many wizards who are poor, including wizard nobles like the Malfoy family, but they are actually just local turtles, not even local tyrants.
Just imagine, if the wizard's imagination of abundance is like that of an old farmer in a mountain village in ancient times, who thinks that the emperor should eat thin noodles with steamed buns every meal, how high would his demand be? Eating sandwiched meat buns every day is over.
The rise of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce has gradually broadened the horizons of wizards.
The Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce encourages its employees to learn to consume, of course not luxury consumption, but the pursuit of quality and artistic taste.
The employees of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce are well-dressed and well-dressed, without being too eye-catching and making people seem to be showing off their wealth.
Seeing people from the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce, wizards often think, alas, look at their clothes, why are they so decently dressed? The style is also very popular, why is it so fashionable?
If you ask carefully, from the stitches to the buttons, from the connection of the fabric texture to the fine-tuning of the collar, it turns out that everything is exquisite, and all the money has been spent on it, so it fits extra well and perfectly complements the wearer's temperament.
The same goes for other small items, such as shoes, walking sticks, watches, purses, collar pins...everything they take out is pleasing to the eye, warm in color, stylish and stylish. Call it low-key luxury.
With a new standard of abundance, wizards finally find themselves poor.
It is also a room full of magic, go and see what is sold by the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce.
it is good! Anywhere is good! The function is considerate, it looks comfortable, and it is safe to use. It is expensive and worth it, and you can’t afford it!
For daily necessities, go and see what the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce prepares for wizards.
Well, it's really good, good quality, good workmanship, good design, no problem with heirloom. can not afford!
Just to eat, drink and mate, that is the life of a pig.
One has to pursue something.
A wizard thinks that he is a master, and he looks down on Muggles every day, but in the end he wears shabby clothes, uses rough things, lives in a bad house, and looks like a member of a gang of beggars. Doesn't his face hurt?
People from the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce became the pioneers, bringing the concept of high-quality life to the British wizarding world.
The first to be affected was the British Ministry of Magic.
The Magic Tears brought an additional income of 5 million Galleons to the Ministry of Magic last year. As a result, from top to bottom, this group of people screamed that the money is not enough to spend! It was as if they were doing unpaid volunteer work.
Actually? Compared with previous years, the salary has not changed much, but the bonus and benefits have been greatly improved, especially the year-end bonus, and the three-month salary is free.
But it is true that money is not enough to spend. There are many steps to go!
Decent suits, shoes, wallets...everything is a step. Only when you have everything in place can you be regarded as at least decent, and if you have more than two sets, it is not so shabby...
Men are like this, and women are even worse. How dare you wear a red, blue, green and purple wizard robe to go out on the street? Or all in black? Do you think you are an Arab woman?
People live in a warm community with chess and card rooms, activity rooms, leisure rooms, gyms and other free public facilities. You live in the wilderness where you listen to the wind during the day and howling wolves at night. Don’t you feel that your life is miserable?
With concrete concepts and comparisons, there is a goal, and money is not enough to spend.
In this context, the existence of Hogwarts and the Order of the Phoenix, which do not do production and need subsidy money every year, has become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.
And if you want to save money from these places, you can't do it without first overthrowing the mountain of Dumbledore.
Those who want to move Dumbledore are not only those who feel that Dumbledore is blocking their way of making money. And ex-Death Eaters.
These people know very well that they will never be able to make peace with Dumbledore and his ilk. Moreover, Dumbledore has always played the role of a hindrance.
In addition, Voldemort has not recovered for such a long time, the worry like a frightened bird has been replaced by calmness, and the vines of ambition are growing and climbing again.
When the scar is healed, the pain is forgotten, and some people become eager to move again.
This is why Kane and Garrick talked about the dark clouds in the wizarding world.
In public, his words and deeds are arrogant, cynicism, questioning and disrespectful remarks on the righteous side of the wizarding war.
provocation, and temptation.
This is a manifestation of personal and organizational power.
This spring, the Ministry of Magic made adjustments to some decrees.
For example, for various reasons, reducing the property investment in the pursuit of escaped Death Eaters and dark wizards.
Some laws and regulations were even banned on the grounds that they were products of the war era, which were too harsh and cruel, and were contrary to the mainstream trend of friendship and tolerance in the peace era.
Four days ago, the Ministry of Magic revealed that if he was willing to pay a large ransom (bail money), Stanley would be released in advance.
One is that he is crazy about money, and the other is that his attitude towards the black forces has obviously loosened, otherwise he would not dare to mention this.
Regarding the Ministry of Magic's proposal, Catherine stated directly: "Let him continue to atone for the crimes he committed in Azkaban."
As a result, within a few days, there were rumors outside, saying that Catherine had forgotten Stanley's love to protect his wife and children, and secretly raised a little boy or something.
Some people are not inferior when they are close, and complain when they are far away, and they will never know how to be grateful.
There are also some people who only look at how many other people have.
The Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce sells magic tears and black hemp to British wizards in limited quantities, and it actually offends some British wizards because of this. Because of the limited quantity, it is said that the Shafik family used the technology of the British wizarding world to flatter the International Federation of Magic and others The Ministry of Magic of the country is harsh on its own people.
Now that the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce has become bigger, Catherine will no longer come forward to scold the street in person. But the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce has a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The spokesperson's reply to this statement was published in the "Daily Prophet" in one sentence: The more people I know, the more I like dogs.
Now those people are targeting employees of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce. Life harassment, obstructing its normal work.
The method is low, more disgusting people, they don't do it themselves, but leave it to the next generation, and the next generation is not stupid, they use their reputation of terror to dominate ordinary human gangs to do it, and those gangs use it Drugs and other means instigate vagabonds, ruffians, drug addicts and other bad people to interfere.
This has indeed brought some troubles to the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce. The main reason is that the channel is self-developed, and many materials are purchased from Muggles and then processed with magic.
Naturally, there is no problem with wizards, but it is more troublesome for Muggles. It is not suitable for mass killings, they are all rotten people, if you kill too little, it will not work, and if you kill too much, it will cause a big incident.
Just crush those next generations to death? It still needs intelligence support to make this happen, and the conditions are not yet mature.
From the perspective of Muggle officials, let them do some personnel work? Sorry, in terms of connections, wizards and dignitaries are more intimate with those people, and they are inextricably linked, and the next generation is not only the chamber pot of wizards and dignitaries, but also the chamber pot of Muggle officials, often doing dirty work for them, and because of means Secretly efficient and well-received.
This is the so-called intertwined, one area leads to another.
Catherine asked him what to do, if not, let the guards kill people.
Kane said no, this method is inefficient and mindless, don't be impatient, he has his own arrangements...
