6. Myth and Skepticism and Acting
Both Professor Binns and Professor Verne have said, "Myth is the history of wizards." ”
Although it is not clear what is going on in this world, in the Muggle world of Hogwarts, the myths and legends that circulate in various countries are the most authentic history.
Hercules' Twelve Trials, the Battle of the Norse Gods, the Battle of the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou, and so on. Those battles that were far beyond the imagination of mortals were indeed played out in that world.
But Muggles without magic are incomprehensible, and some people choose to believe what they have not seen with their own eyes, but there are also many people who choose not to believe in what they have not seen. Therefore, those stories can only become myths in everyone's impression in the end, rather than history.
But the magicians know the truth of the myths: Hercules is actually a member of the ancient Thunder family in the Mediterranean, known for their lightning magic in air magic. And the biological father of Hercules in mythology, Zeus, is actually the name of the head of the Entropy Del family in the past generations.
As for the various monsters in the Twelve Trials, such as the Nemian Lion, Hurdra, the Red Deer, the Boar of Ermantos, the herd of Aujeas, the strange birds of Lake Stinfaros, the Cretan bull, etc., these are actually monsters created by families who are hostile to the Sandel family.
And those more powerful, such as Leviathan, Behemoth, and the hundred-armed giant, which even have divinity in legends, are actually created by magicians and the Holy See in thousands of years of mutual attack.
And if you want to explain it with the arcane art of later generations, and even more later science, they are biological weapons created by magicians and the Holy See at that time by taking advantage of loopholes in the law.
Among them, practical magicians have long been committed to the research of biomimeticism, and their most outstanding achievement, or the achievement that can be mass-produced, is a variety of strange Chimera synthetic beasts.
As the sworn enemy of the magician, the Holy See also has its own exclusive biological weapons, of which the two most typical and famous series are angels and demons.
It should be noted that although angels and demons seem to be mortal enemies in the eyes of Muggles, they are actually the papal see's layout of light and darkness. Angels are responsible for maintaining the righteous and holy image of the Holy See, while demons are used as tools to lay down their hands and to spoof magicians.
In Matthew 4, the Messiah is even explicitly used to tell the believers that Satan is also God's servant. Although the original intention of the Holy See was to figure out the guò story and tell people not to doubt the Lord.
But why did all these creatures disappear later? Some people say that it is the deterioration of the environment, the development of human science and technology, and the intensification of pollution that have destroyed their living space.
However, the most fundamental reason is that because of the change of the laws of the world, these powerful biological weapons have gradually withdrawn from the stage of history because they cannot adapt to the new laws. Just like after the end of the battle of Middle-earth against the demon king Sauron ten thousand years ago, the elves had to choose to quit in the face of the change in the laws of continental Europe.
And could the killing teacher in front of him be a new type of demon created by using some of the remaining technology on the magic side and combining it with the technology of this world? You must know that in the demon army, the tentacle demon has always been the most notorious.
Much of its fame stems from its great danger to female magicians.
If you want to let Seamus explain it vividly, to paraphrase the setting of an anime he watched last week, the tentacle demon is a mature Digimon, and when he meets a growing Digimon magical girl or a mature Digimon witch, it will have a natural coercion, and the maximum lethality can be increased by 300%.
However, it cannot be ruled out that the killing of the teacher is related to the magician who has never appeared in this world.
You must know that the monster of the tentacle demon is so hateful, it once provided countless magicians with a hat for free, and then the magicians who couldn't bear it spent a lot of money to crack the Holy See's manufacturing process, so as to develop a new type of tentacle monster - Evil Eye (Beholder, EvilEye).
The young and vigorous magicians then use the newly created monsters to deal with the nuns and saints of the Holy See, and due to the multi-eyed nature of the evil eye, it also comes with a live video recording function similar to that of the modern Internet.
Some of the unlucky saints were "forced" to become "Internet celebrities" in the classical era, and this caused an uproar and monstrous anger in the Knights of the Holy See, resulting in a sharp decline in the number of saints and witches in a certain historical period, a surge in the number of magicians and knights, and a rapid decrease in the birth rate of newborns in the wizarding world.
In the end, when both sides were about to lose, the highest levels of both sides had to reach a series of agreements, or compromises, such as the "Promise not to be the first to use tentacles during non-war periods"; Another example is the Non-Proliferation Tentacle Agreement; Another example is the Convention on the Suppression of Illegal Aquaculture Tentacles and so on.
However, out of consideration for the growth of young wizards, and of course more importantly, to maintain the image of ancient wizards in the minds of future generations of students (Professor Verne's exact words), the Ministry of Magic deliberately asked to avoid these things in the review of Hogwarts' teaching content.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Seamus was going to another world, Professor Verne would not have mentioned these additions in his special courses, and asked Seamus to be especially careful and vigilant at all times.
Otherwise, if you accidentally sign a contract with your tentacles and become a horse (demon) monkey (law) burning (less) wine (female) or something, it will be a lot of fun.
At the thought that he might be ridiculed by Louise for the rest of his life, Mr. Seamus couldn't help but shudder, and then looked at the killing teacher again.
[Sure enough, it's so many feet and slippery.] 】
Although I am a little unsure whether the technique of creating and killing teachers comes from the Holy See or from the magician, there is one thing that Seamus knows. That is, the matter of "killing the teacher's cunzài" is itself worth investigating.
Of course, the premise is to pay attention to your own safety!
At this time, the argument between Uguma and Chairman Asano became more and more intense.
"I disagree!"
Yutomi Karasuma said loudly to Chairman Sù Asano: "It's now the second semester, and the students of Class E have already improved a lot. At this point, there is no reason to involve ordinary people anymore. ”
There is one thing that Uruma didn't make clear: it's already the second semester, and if you join halfway, you don't have enough time for ordinary people to quickly reach the level of E-class students. And if you can't keep up with the progress of other students in class quickly, you will only become a burden to others!
"However, it has always been a tradition for our school to send unqualified students to special intensive classes. Removing the harmful dead leaves at any time is a way to protect the saplings. And to isolate those black sheep who are willing to degenerate is to be responsible for the whole school. ”
As the head of the school, Chairman Asano has always been for his own use, so he clearly asked Karasuma to act in accordance with the rules of the school, and at the same time, Chairman Asano also pointed out in a timely manner: "Haven't there been cases in the past where transfer students entered Class E in the middle of the way?" I think one of them was called Ritsu and the other was Horibe Camp. ”
"It's different." The chairman's words obviously can't make Karama agree, Ritsu is a mechanical life of super artificial intelligence, and Horibe Camp has been transplanted with the super combat power of tentacles, and the strength of both of them should not be underestimated.
But what about this guy now?
Karasuma glanced at Seamus out of the corner of his eye, and found that he was sitting peacefully across from Teacher Kill drinking tea.
Just by taking a look at Uzuma, you can see that Seamus has no characteristics, and his muscular body doesn't look like he's been exercised again, this is a complete ordinary person!
And judging from the Seamus admission information provided by the chairman, it is too clean! It's so weird too!
An ordinary Italian child came to Japan with his parents for a trip, but because he fell out with his family because he liked Japanese ACG culture, he broke off the relationship and went out to live alone, and during this period, his parents left him and returned to his homeland - Italy, except for giving him a little living allowance every month, he was left to fend for himself in Japan.
Although it is true that foreigners' attitudes and concepts towards their families are different from those of Orientals, and it is true that Ximo's appearance is a severe secondary disease as the material says, Wuma instinctively feels that there is something wrong with Ximo's information.
So whether from the perspective of Simo's own safety or for the safety of the E-class students, Uruma made up his mind not to let Simo enter E-class, he slapped his hands on the desk hard, leaned forward with his body, and stared at Asano in a very oppressive posture.
"Mr. Chairman, you have to know the current situation of Class E in the third year, they not only have to take on the task of killing octopuses, but also face the attack of assassins attracted by the bounty!
Do you know how much our government spent last semester to stop the self-defeating thieves from doing their own tricks on students and their families? Ordinary people will die if they enter halfway! ”
Yes, attracted by the 10 billion yen bounty offered by various governments, countless assassins have targeted their assassination targets on the head of the killer teacher, but they have repeatedly failed.
Therefore, many people who have no character and dignity, for the sake of profit, turn their goals to the students and their parents who kill the teacher. On the one hand, it is to kidnap them and threaten to kill the teacher; On the other hand, they are also worried that the students will complete the assassination mission before them and get the bonus.
For this reason, the Japanese government had to allocate an additional amount of funds and manpower to protect the students and their parents, so that the students could stay in Class E for three years without worries and fully participate in the assassination and killing of teachers.
But even so, there were still fish that slipped through the net, but fortunately, these people were solved in the end, and the parents of the students were not hurt too much.
Chairman Asano also knew this, but the corners of his mouth drew a mocking arc. Because there are some things that Wuma doesn't know, he doesn't worry about Seamu's safety.
Chairman Asano's straight body, which had been sitting upright, leaned back slightly, which made him look even taller, and at the same time allowed him to look at Uzuma with a cold gaze from below.
"Mr. Karasuma, as the chairman of the board of directors, what I have to worry about is the students' studies and future in school, and as for the safety of the students, it is the responsibility of the class guide and you."
"Is it your limit for you and the octopus to educate and protect 28 children? Can't have one more? ”
"As for the dangers encountered outside the school? Isn't Japan a society governed by the rule of law? Isn't the Japanese police protecting citizens anymore? ”
"We taxpayers pay so much tax to the government every year, and as a result, you don't want to protect even one more child?"
"So should I advise our young people not to have children in the future, because our government is not willing to waste resources on them."
"After all, being a good citizen can't cause trouble for our politicians and the government."
A series of ridicules said that Wuma was furious, and the guy in front of him had obviously used the matter of the three-year E class to continuously extort countless benefits from the government, but when the matter came, he pretended to be a good citizen who was arrogant and arrogant.
It's so shameless!
