Chapter 256: A New World
Chapter 356
Su Yuan looked at a classic car in front of him and slowly walked in front of him. There was something peculiar about the expression on his face. This time he was in a world that was neither medieval nor modern. The point in time between World War I and World War II, 1926.
The above information was read by him from the newspaper. Now he's trying to figure out what kind of world this is. The air is filled with active magical elements. There is no doubt that there is absolutely magic in this world. He could even feel that the whole city was shrouded in a large magic.
Walking down the street, Su Yuan was attracted by a frenzied roar. On the steps of a library-like building, a scruffy, malevolent woman yelled hoarsely.
"Our world, our lives, never belonged to us. They are controlled by some kind of force, the wizards, the magic, they are hidden among us, and they manipulate our lives at will. We're going to find them and hang them on the cross and burn them......"
It is a typical anti-xx group in the United States. There are countless of them in the United States, and even though it is only 1926, they have begun to spring up like mushrooms after a rain.
The one in front of me seemed to be an anti-magic party. And it's the kind that is extremely angry. Threatens to burn all the magicians to death. It's not uncommon, they were in Salem a hundred years ago. Although they have never seen real magic. They blamed their poverty, their cowardice, their fear, all on magic. And this kind of violent thinking actually has a strong contagious force. Just like those cults that seem brainless and extreme, there is always no shortage of followers.
Because of the Industrial Revolution, a large number of mechanized factories were born, and the traditional handicraft industry was devastated. Countless people have lost their jobs and become destitute. At the same time, this was before the first economic crisis. Various spearheads have appeared. Life is even more difficult for the lower classes. As a result, a large number of cult-like gatherings have emerged.
Su Yuan felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, but he didn't remember to see it somewhere for a while. As he passed by the crowd, a young man with a blank expression handed him a leaflet. It's full of that kind of violent propaganda. It also has the name of the organization, Second Salem (in the original book, they should not have called themselves Second Salem, which is the official title.) For the sake of understanding, I'll just call it that. )。 Su Yuan didn't pay too much attention to the flyer in his hand. Instead, he looked carefully at the boy who handed him the flyer.
The boy is tall, albeit not very old. But it's already close to one meter eight. It's just that he is expressionless and always hunched over, giving people an extremely cowardly and decadent feeling.
Su Yuan's gaze seemed to frighten him. With his head down, he turned and walked to the side. Su Yuan didn't stop him. I just quietly watched him walk to the other side of the road and continue to hand out leaflets. It's just that before he left, Su Yuan faintly heard a word in his mouth. "Let's go."
Su Yuan didn't care about his reminder, he knew that there was no force around him that could complete the threat to him. On the contrary, it was the child who made him care a lot. That child has a terrifying amount of magic in him. The furious magic curled up in his body, ready to move. Su Yuan felt that it seemed that any excessive stimulation would lead to the rampage of that mass of magical power. In fact, it's already a miracle that he was able to grow so big and not be torn apart by that kind of magic.
Su Yuan's movements attracted the attention of the woman who was speaking on stage. She pointed at Su Yuan and shouted.
"Look at that disgusting Asian guy. He was filled with an aura of evil. He must be an evil wizard. Catch him, we're going to burn him. ”
Su Yuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the woman with an incredulous expression. There are at least hundreds of people coming and going. I don't know how many people look at them with a mentally retarded look. But the woman didn't react at all, but she just looked at the child twice. The woman branded herself as an evil sorcerer!!
Seeing a few tattered homeless guys, they surrounded them with bad intentions. Su Yuan only felt a nameless anger surging into his heart.
In the last world, he couldn't do his best, so he could only use the system to avoid the final boss. This made him feel very uncomfortable in the first place. At the moment, several homeless people even wanted to tie him to the cross and burn him to death.
Su Yuan looked around and saw from a distance that there were already some spectators around. But apparently no one was ready to come up and help. Even the two patrol-looking guys not far away were just watching from afar.
The nameless fire in Su Yuan's heart was even stronger. His face distorted slightly, and he looked back at the homeless men. Without saying a word, he directly reached out and pulled out a large-caliber revolver. A single shot knocked one of the homeless men in the front out in the head.
Now he already knows what kind of world this world is. It is precisely because of this that he dares to be so unscrupulous. This time period is also the most chaotic and dirty time in these European and American countries. Su Yuan didn't intend to wronged himself, so he shot directly without any scruples.
This time it's a fried pot. The crowd scattered around them, and the two police officers on the corner were also taken aback, but they did not dare to rush forward without guns. At this time, not far behind Su Yuan, in a coffee shop, a lady who had been paying attention to all this quickly stood up.
She had come to spy on Second Semler on her own. As a result, I didn't expect to see such a good show. Seeing that the scene was completely chaotic, she hurriedly rushed over. Prepare a slumber spell to knock Su Yuan unconscious.
As a result, as soon as he pulled out his wand, he felt a light in his hand, and the wand flew out. When she looked up again, she saw that her target was holding her wand, looking at her with a smile on his face.
"What are you looking for?"
"Wandless spellcasting?" Tina blurted out. This is considered an advanced skill in the wizarding world. Although there are a lot of people who can do it, most of them can only use it to perform a few small tricks, and those who can really be used in actual combat are all famous masters.
And the Asian wizard in front of him is proficient in casting spells without a wand. But it was far beyond Tina's imagination. In her impression, even the president of the American Magical Association could not use a wandless spell to take away her wand without any perception.
Knowing that she had encountered a character she couldn't provoke, Tina even wondered if the one in front of her was the legendary one, known as the existence of the Dark Lord.
