Lupin soon got the news.

As Lin Zhengyang thought, the top of the British government and the royal family are not ignorant of the cloud magic world.

When Sirius Black was wanted by the British Ministry of Magic, the Muggle government also issued a wanted warrant on television, describing him as a dangerous murderer.

Of course, at the current point in time, Sirius has not yet been born.

If you want to talk about the Ministry of Magic's dealings with the British royal family, you can't fail to mention the predecessor of the Ministry of Magic, the Presbyterian Church.

The Council of Elders already existed when Gryffindor Godric founded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry along with three other great White Wizards.

It was originally a civic organization composed of a number of highly respected wizards, whose purpose was to protect wizards from ordinary people, and to organize dark wizards to persecute ordinary people.

During the years of chaos, the Council of Elders played a number of positive roles, and in general served as the protector of the wizarding world.

It wasn't until later that the Council of Elders was reorganized into the Ministry of Magic, the equivalent of the government of the wizarding world.

The Council of Elders and the rulers of England were in frequent contact with each other, and during the time of King Arthur, Merlin even served as the chief mage of the court, providing King Arthur with help in occultism and astronomy.

But there is one thing that rulers have been coveting but have not been able to obtain—the talent of magic.

Therefore, no one will not be moved to hear this news, just as the whereabouts of those wizards and magical creatures who have disappeared for thousands of years are well known.

The two sides agreed to hook up privately around the Ministry of Magic.

One side has been thirsting for the secrets of magic for centuries, and the other party needs to rely on the human and financial resources of the other party to build a school, and it is perfectly possible to cooperate.

Soon, a few local jazz "bumped into" him, visited his neighbors by the way, and gave him an invitation to the ball of the upper class.

This would have been a very common ballroom ball, at least on the surface.

"Sure enough, this kid's family background is all over the world!"

Lin Zhengyang looked at an invitation to the ball in his hand, from Earl So-and-so, it is said that this ball is quite high-end, and there will be members of the royal family.

This is the occasion for him to negotiate with the British royal family and the government.

"On the evening of September 1st, the wedding feast of the eldest daughter of the Earl of Condal······ It just so happened that the first day of school at Hogwarts was staggered. ”

At the platform of nine and three-quarters, bidding farewell to the little guy who cherished others, Lin Zhengyang went to Count Condal's house for a banquet.

He didn't use the convenient spatial magic of Phantom Shifting to get on the road, because the Presbyterian Church, the predecessor of the Ministry of Magic, which had existed since Godric's time, had established a vast national monitoring network in the United Kingdom, which could monitor any spatial magic, and could deduce the landing and starting points of spatial movement through traces.

Most of the time, the Ministry of Magic simply doesn't have the energy to monitor every wizard who apparishes into shapeshifts, as it's a common haste magic.

Its more useful use is at the national level for strategic deterrence, and if necessary, it can raise a large border barrier to block all escapees.

Outside the station, the waiter who had been waiting for a long time respectfully invited Lin Zhengyang to get into a car.

After driving for more than three hours, neither the driver nor the waiter said a word.

By the time we arrived at the so-called Count Condal's house, it was already dark.

On the edge of the boulevard is an old manor house and an English-style castle.

The lights are bright, the people are buzzing, and there are already a lot of cars parked in front of the door.

"Sir, please come this way, there are two guests waiting for you."

Nodding, Lin Zhengyang followed the butler-like person, entered the manor, and went to the second floor of the castle.

In a room with a lit fireplace, he met the Queen and the Prime Minister.

The installation of water and electricity in such an old castle is not a small project, and it seems that the Count of Condal has no intention of spending this unjust money.

Taking off his hat and hanging it on the hanger at the door of the room, Lin Zhengyang bowed his head.

"Good evening, both of you, it's a pleasure to meet both."

"Hello, Mr. Lin, we are also very happy to meet you."

The elderly queen was the first to speak, she didn't put on a show, she just spoke with the attitude of an ordinary person to a friend.

Perhaps, she had long been accustomed to dealing with these mysterious spellcasters, whether they were wizards or goblins, or ancient magical creatures that had transformed themselves.

"Your request we have already seen and is not unacceptable."

"Just, what can you give us? We would like you to be more specific. ”

"I can make you, have talent."

"Talent?"

"In fact, the whole world, every person, theoretically has this talent, the difference is only high and low. Strictly speaking, I am not imparting your talents, but helping you, teaching you, and tapping into this latent power on your own. ”

"But······· They call us Muggles, and Muggles can't learn magic! ”

The Queen was skeptical.

"Ah, I know, I know."

Lin Zhengyang said in a relaxed tone.

"For thousands of years, they have thought so, they have always thought that wizards and Muggles are two different groups, and they feel superior."

"In the Middle Ages, it might have been, but now, it's the wizards who are left behind."

"They are stubborn, rotten, and seldom progressive, like a pool of stagnant water, and even if some fresh blood is occasionally added, they will be quickly assimilated under strong established traditions."

"It's the supremacy mentality of wizards since ancient times that prevents them from seeing a fact clearly—"

Lin Zhengyang paused, propped up the reception table with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and looked at them with both eyes, giving them more psychological pressure.

"That's it—everyone, there's a talent for magic!"

"Otherwise, it won't be possible to explain the new wizards who are born every year, and they are all Muggle blood!"

Both the Queen and the Prime Minister were lost in thought.

It's not that they haven't thought about it, it's just that their efforts have been futile, which makes them give up trying to keep trying.

"The two of you, as for the source of magical talents, some people think that it is a gift from the gods, some people think that it is learned from their respective magical creatures, and some stubbornly believe that it comes from blood."

But is that really the case? Wizards have used magic for thousands of years or more, but never really think about why they can cast spells and others can't. ”

"There is always a kind of talent determinism in wizards, and Squibs and Muggles without talent can never learn magic."

"This is utterly ridiculous."

"For a variety of reasons, whether selfish or public, they never wanted more people to be able to use magic."

"Of course, it's more likely that they can't!"

Lin Zhengyang accentuated his tone and said word by word:

“I can ！ (I can)"
