Chapter 21 The Supreme Arbitration Conference of the International Wizards (3)
On the first day of the conference, Peverell made clear their goal of repealing the International Secrets Act, which was ridiculously known to countless wizards as dark wizards in their quest to repeal the law of secrecy. The progress of the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info was quite slow in the following days, and it can be said that there was no progress.
Not every region is willing to abolish the secrecy law, and in their opinion, powerful wizard families are naturally eager to break free from this law. Let go of your hands and feet and work hard to solve the various problems left over from the past.
At that time, Europe was fully expanded, and countless regions were incorporated into the European system, and in the face of the strength of European wizards, some people came up with this isolation law. Isolate the two worlds, and wizards cannot appear in front of the world.
Ostensibly, this is an idea for the growing anti-wizardism in Europe. In fact, what it really means is that there must be no large-scale war. Because of the scale of the war, it is impossible not to be noticed by the Muggles.
Especially at that time, the illusion of disappearance had become more mature and universal. The Wizard War became extremely mobile, with no front, no rear. In an era when the two sides are mixed, it is unlikely that a war will break out on a large scale, and will only exist in a small number of local conflicts. Peverell finally agreed to this proposal, because the frequent wars had led to a sharp decline in the number and quality of family members. No one will be able to make any better money if they continue to fight, and they will only come to the second-rate wizard family cheaply.
The International Wizarding Secrecy Act puts a pause on large-scale warfare, and it is impossible for people from top wizarding families to use non-violent means to take away their status as vested interests. The letter of the law is made by the ruler, and its purpose is naturally to make the ruler obey the law, which is beneficial.
Now that the pause symbol is about to be erased, the happiest are the strongest and the strongest families who think they can challenge. Representatives of other forces would never want this to happen. They do not have the strength to survive the new round of screening and do everything they can to thwart this major proposal.
For example, as Love mentions, secrecy is never perfect, but for hundreds of years, Muggles have not been ignorant of the idea that wizards only exist in fairy tales, and they don't understand why, it will get worse and worse in the future, and eventually most Muggles, believe it or not, will eventually be exposed to the world for a long time.
This is not to say that several of the strongest wizarding families, such as Peverell, are happy to lift the secrecy law in the near future. It seems that the situation is that the wizard is forced to dismiss, not the established plan that everyone has planned and prepared. The rapid technological progress of the Muggles forced wizards to react.
It took several days of arguing and shouting before everyone unanimously passed the repeal of the International Wizard Secrecy Act. Peverell and Yao have made it clear that the law will be broken from the outside no matter what, and even if the meeting decides to continue to maintain the secrecy law, it will not help.
An even bigger controversy ensued.
When will it be officially abolished?
This question is at the heart of it.
Even Peverell himself did not know when it was best to lift, and within a few days, none of them came up with a reasonable, well-reasoned time for lifting.
The final date calculated by Chinese wizards is 2030, when approximately 45% of the world's Muggles will be aware of the wizarding world or magical creatures. Peverell thinks it's 2050. Menes did not speak, nor did they have any basis for investigation. Their Muggle world is poor and backward, and there are still several European countries that have troops in African countries and influence the politics and economy of other countries. South America can't count on it, their Muggles are basically in the agricultural stage, and the Muggles in this issue are not even close to the technical scope.
"You have to count in your heart. Sitting in his chair, Bilow said to Phoenix, "There are all kinds of arguments in the house, and you have to have a goal so that we can determine the right time." ”
At this time, Wanbang City was in a crisp autumn, and the two walked in the family's exclusive small manor. Although the city is high in the sky, the city has four distinct seasons.
The flowers that have opened are like flames, like torches that are lit. The golden leaves paved the path to the brim, and when the feet stepped on, there was no sound or smell, only a little bit of extremely fine and soft touch, like a fine Persian carpet.
"The goal is clear. Phoenix put his arm around Billo's shoulder, "We have to think about how we're going to deal if we talk to a Muggle that falls apart." In other words, until we have a solution to the Muggles, the law of lifting secrecy at any point in time cannot be passed. ”
"You mean, wizards and Muggles will go to war. He pointedly pointed out the meaning of Phoenix's painting.
"I don't like war, but most of them are inevitable. Phoenix bent down and picked up a wet autumn leaf, the wind blowing, and a hint of coolness melted into his heart, "You see Menes jumping up and down to encourage everyone to immediately repeal the law of secrecy." In fact, they are nothing more than rootless leaves, and when the wind blows, "let go of your hand, and the autumn leaves fly away with the breeze," and there is nothing. ”
"I don't think Muggles are vulnerable, but I'm afraid the situation will put us in a situation where we fight on multiple fronts. With Muggle nations, wizards from other regions, and even native European wizarding families—"
Phoenix raised his hand to stop him and said, "yes, worst-case scenario, it does." So I'm going to avoid. Before I came to the meeting, a plan had been drawn up, and Love was refining and confirming the feasibility of the plan, and soon, perhaps today, we would have a preliminary point in time. ”
"What kind of plan?" he asked curiously.
"What we have to do is curb the scientific development of Muggles. "Even if their technology regresses in great strides, if my theory is true, it should be able to make some technology go back to the Middle Ages, and most of it will be completely locked in the current level, and with the passage of time, it will slowly move closer to the Middle Ages." ”
"There's a breakthrough in time magic!" was a nod from Billo, who was excited.
This magic technology is known as the magic of the future, and the magic of manipulating time will become the most powerful magic, which is the consensus of most people. The Department of Mysteries is also progressing well, and the time turner has long been used on a large scale, which is only scratching the surface of time magic.
It's like humans have mastered the art of drilling wood for fire, but it took thousands of years to really understand its principles, and its advanced forms—this is the progress that Phoenix learned about Muggles, wizards never cared why two pieces of wood rubbed together.
"Of course not," he shook his head, "just a patchwork of existing magical technology. Time magic is very dangerous, and I'm not going to continue this research, and when the situation is stable, I'm going to stop this research on a global scale. ”
Billo looked at Phoenix in disbelief.
