Although, strictly speaking, the clash that took place in the common room not long ago was more of a farce than a duel.

Because even the most seriously injured Victor Klum was only a minor concussion plus two broken bones.

In the magical world, where civil spells are highly developed, it is by no means much more difficult to treat such an injury than it is to cure a cold and fever.

But the problem is that due to Zhang Cheng's almost brutal interference, the entire Durmstrang has a strong sense of shame up and down, and at the same time, he is full of hatred and hatred for Hogwarts.

In less than half a month since the end of the Ball, the conflict between the students of the two schools has swelled from once or twice a day to several times every hour on average.

In particular, Gryffindor, which has always had a tradition of being reckless in the first wave, under the leadership of Harry Potter and Ron, crippled the hands and feet of more than twenty Durmstrang students at one time.

Not to be outdone, Draco Malfoy then commanded Slytherin House to successfully board the opponent's giant magic ship and complete a near-perfect raid.

As bloodshed increased, the ancient tradition of Hogwarts, which had been suppressed by Dumbledore for decades, gradually revived, and duels became the first choice for students to resolve their personal conflicts in private.

If it were the same as before, the professors could also use the power at their disposal to suppress it.

But now?

Now students have been empowered to self-manage, and can even choose to cut and add to school rules through student council voting!

And most importantly!

They can initiate a vote of no confidence in a professor they don't like, and if they have more than half of them, the professor will be fired and fired by the school board.

In other words, the situation where the principal and the dean could expel a student is now reversed.

Therefore, most professors are busy trying to curry favor with their students rather than pouring cold water on them, just as European and American politicians with so-called "free" and "democratic" systems will never pour cold water on their own voters, even if they see their own fatal problems.

As for the very simple reason, from a psychological point of view, everyone only likes to listen to good things and don't like to hear bad things.

Think about it, if a guy is in a good mood and everybody is complimenting him, and you tell him, "Man, you're in big trouble, and it won't be long before you go bankrupt." ”

So how will the person react?

Ninety-nine percent of people will turn their faces on the spot, and only a handful of people who know how to self-reflect will accept it with an open mind and then go back and check if this is really the case.

Unfortunately, this small group of people is far from enough to awaken the ignorant people, and sometimes they are the target of popular sieges, especially under the premise of one-person, one-vote elections.

Politicians don't risk their political futures and their lives, so they prefer to pretend they don't see anything than to make themselves unhappy.

Nowhere is this more evident than the terrorist financial tsunami that erupted in Japan at the end of the twentieth century.

Could it be that none of Japan's politicians and economists at that time saw that after the Plaza Accord, the yen's exchange rate against the dollar lost control, resulting in a serious decline in its own export trade, and a large amount of surplus funds were invested in real estate and the stock market, thus creating an unimaginable virtual economic bubble?

No!

They saw it!

At least some of you must have noticed!

But why hasn't anyone come forward to pick this out?

Because if a politician stands up at this time and pours cold water on the high-spirited people, then what awaits him is not heroic applause, but overwhelming abuse and questioning.

Zhang Cheng saw through the essence of the seemingly fair election, so he moved this seemingly ridiculous system to the school, so that Dumbledore and his supporters could feel how stupid it was to stand on the side of ignorant civilians.

Of course, Hogwarts was just a slightly larger toy for him, and it wasn't worth much time.

After the Ball, he devoted all his energy to the study and further development of the creative power.

Thanks to Hermione Granger's 24-hour dedication, in just a few weeks, Zhang Cheng was able to use these complex and changeable powers to temporarily revive everything he touched around him, and impart a certain amount of wisdom.

In addition, he can also catalyze and modify any existing life form at the genetic level, turning it into a powerful magical creature that is completely different from the original.

But as the saying goes, any power comes at a price.

The price he needs to pay is that when his creative power is exhausted, he will be forcibly transformed into a life form, and in a half-physical and half-illusory appearance, he will draw all kinds of energy from the cracks of space to condense, purify, and transform.

The process is very long, and it's so boring that it's almost like going to jail and confinement.

Gazing at the great energy that kept pulsing at her fingertips, Hermione's eyes revealed intoxication and obsession, licking her lips and exclaiming, "It's incredible! I've never heard of any kind of magic that can do this, and in a way, you're almost like a god." ”

"Oh, maybe. Zhang Cheng smiled disappreciably.

God was never the goal of his endeavors, but an object of desire to transcend.

From the very beginning, his gaze was on standing on the highest place, and he wanted to replace the Creator, a supreme life form like the Pantheon Titans in the Azeroth universe.

"We've done almost all the experiments we've been able to do so far, what's next for you?" asked Hermione, looking up.

"What's next? The next thing we're going to do is be patient, wait for Voldemort to resurrect and start a magical war to take out all of Dumbledore's supporters, and then we'll kill him again. Zhang Cheng gave the answer without thinking.

As for the part that destroys the world in the end, he won't be stupid enough to tell the other party.

In terms of the depth of cooperation, the girl is not even comparable to the pure-blood aristocracy led by Lucius Malfoy.

"I believe that you will become the supreme ruler of the wizarding world in England and the world, and set off a revolution like never before......," said Hermione, who took the initiative to kiss her cheek gently in a provocative gesture.

"That's right! a revolution! an unprecedented change! we're going to change the world!"

After whispering this pun, Zhang Cheng's pupils flashed a trace of imperceptible madness, and then directly tore the girl's clothes and pressed it violently on the experimental table.

It wasn't long before the entire chamber reverberated with red-faced moans......
