Chapter 367: On Protracted War
Chapter 367
Tina curled up in the corner of the living room with her wand in hand. She couldn't believe that there was the Ministry of Magic's most wanted criminal, Grindelwald, right in front of her. What's even more sad is that I can only watch from the sidelines, and I don't dare to approach at all.
Only when we really face it can we find out how big the gap between the two sides is. Tina didn't even dare to wave her wand.
"Don't worry, Tina used to be an Auror. But not anymore, she works for me now. ”
Tina was tempted to retort when she had worked for him. But when he saw the wand in his hand, he wisely closed his mouth. As for Grevis, it was Grindelwald's kind of exciting news that had already made her dizzy. She felt like her brain was running out of information.
That's when he realized that he had said that Graves was the Minister of Security. Why did Su Yuan laugh so weirdly. It seems that the other party has known the true identity of Graves since then.
Cresden walked out of the room with a plate of sushi. Grindelwald's face changed slightly, and the other party did not hide it in the slightest, obviously there was some kind of purpose. It put him at ease. As long as you ask for something, nothing is a problem. He's not the ugly guy with no nose later. He knows the art of compromise and the importance of allies.
"Hi, Cresden. Long time no see. ”
Cresden saw his face change. Knowing that the friend you have always trusted is not what you imagined. Ignoring him, he just took the plate and went back to the room.
Grindelwald was a little embarrassed, but quickly returned to normal.
"When did you find him?"
"The first time I saw it, I found out. You can understand that I have a special kind of probing magic, and I did something to him when I was on the street that day. Then I found him very easily. ”
"Awesome. It took months for the entire Ministry of Magic to find no one, and you found it in an instant. "Thousands of clothes don't wear sycophants, Grindelwald came up and took a handful first. Then he asked dryly.
"Let's make a condition."
"What?"
"Give him to me and make your terms. You didn't hide him, which means you have what you want. Tell me what you want? ”
"I've prepared so many delicacies, maybe we can talk while we eat."

Just as Su Yuan was having lunch with Grindelwald, New York welcomed an interesting visitor. Newt. Scartman, a protector of magical creatures. He roamed the world, searching for rare magical creatures, protecting them, raising them, and trying to keep them alive.
He carried a suitcase with a huge space stacked with countless traceless expansion spells. In these spaces, he feeds countless magical creatures. Tree guards, snakes, leopards, horned camels, moon beasts, and so on. Su Yuan also knew that in the deepest part of the space, there was even a silent one.
Carrying his suitcase, Newt arrived in New York. He came here to buy a gift and also to release a ptarmigan. I have to say that this is why Newt has this idea. The Thunderbird is a high-level magical beast second only to the Phoenix. Or a mythical beast of the Indians. Put it on Su Yuan, saying that you can't let it go.
in a hotel room.
"Does Mr. Grindelwald like magical creatures?"
"Nothing special, they're an integral part of the wizarding world."
"I'm different. I love these things, all kinds of magical magical creatures. Magic is a wonderful thing and I love everything about it. So, if Mr. Grindelwald can find more magical creatures for me, I will be very grateful to you and help you make your wish come true as much as possible. ”
"Just magical creatures?"
"Ordinary magical creatures can't satisfy me. What I want are dragons, thunderbirds, phoenixes, basilisks, these most powerful and rare magical creatures. Of course, I wouldn't refuse elderberry wands, cloaks of invisibility, and resurrection stones. ”
"It's easy, as long as you can be on my side and wait until I'm done with what I want to do. Take your pick of all the magical creatures in the entire wizarding world. ”
"Very well, it looks like we've got a consensus."
Grindelwald wants to start a war. He didn't want to exterminate humanity, but wanted to turn ordinary people into his own slaves. In his words, we always need donkeys to pull carts.
However, Su Yuan has a different opinion on this. Because starting a war and destroying modern civilization is too simple and crude. Magic is synonymous with mystery, and Grindelwald's plan could have been accomplished in a more sophisticated way.
"Tell me about it. I've studied those no-majels. They are physically vulnerable, but not spiritually weak. They are very clever and have developed all kinds of devastating weapons, many of which even magicians of our level dare not confront head-on. ”
"It's not a problem, those weapons have a great weakness. That is, those weapons need to be operated by people. We can't deal with those weapons, can't we deal with those people? ”
"The more you use the Imperius Charm, the more conspicuous it becomes. And this spell can be used, and it also requires some high-level wizards. ”
"How many years has the Imperius Curse been born, two hundred years, or three hundred years, or five hundred years. Hasn't anyone tried to improve the magic? Or what has become of the entire wizarding world's research on magic?
In the last hundred years, there have been all kinds of messy life magic in the wizarding world, such as tidying up rooms, sorting packages, washing dishes, assisting in dressing, and so on. These are all good, and they are a sign of the maturity of a magical civilization. But in the magic of war, there is not the slightest progress. IMHO, as far as I can tell, there doesn't seem to be any overt war magic in the entire wizarding world?
I'm curious, if you're going to start a war, what's going to do with those weapons that destroy the human world? With Shapeshifting, or Avada's Curse? ”
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"I'm trying to say very simply, for your change to succeed, you must first push for some change in the wizarding world. Change the way people think about dark magic, develop new war magic, and simplify and improve the Imperius Curse. Take a multi-pronged approach to really accomplish your big plan.
Cresden has an unprecedented talent and is a good fighter with a little training. But that's not enough, the wizarding world needs more than just this kind of high-end thug, what you really need is a deterrent force. Only then will you be invincible.
It's going to be a long process. You need to be patient. ”
Listening to Su Yuan's words, Grindelwald fell into a kind of contemplation.
