"Magical resources are an important resource on the earth, and most of them are also non-renewable resources, rare magical beasts, or rare magical herbs, if they are not protected, they will soon be mined ......"

"Since the beginning of modern times, wizards have been unrestrained in the development and abuse of magical resources, and we all know that such behavior will have great consequences in the future."

"But the reality is that the wizards under the capitalist system are unscrupulously abusing for personal gain, advocating overconsumption and squandering resources, and these actions have caused today's resource shortages."

After the International Magicians issued sanctions, the official newspaper of the Soviet Council of Magicians, Pravda Daily, published a report in which it criticized the current policy of misuse of magical resources in Western countries in a fierce tone, and emphasized that magical resources belonged to the glorious collective, not to the individual.

Because of the existence of the magic iron curtain, the United States and NATO are ignorant of the current situation of the Soviet Union, and between the uncertainties faced by satellite and aircraft surveillance, espionage activities have become frequent.

Thanks to the cooperation of the United States and Britain's proactive Ministries of Magic, wizards began to take the initiative to help the governments of both countries infiltrate and infiltrate the Soviet Union.

The wizards' magic and technology also make it easy for them to carry out espionage activities, and thanks to these spy wizards, Miying has gained a lot of information that they did not know before.

"Seven wizards were lost, and only a little bit of it was exchanged."

"No...... Their sacrifice was at least exchanged for exceptionally important information, and this stuff. ”

MI6 Agent 007 raised his metal wand and magic battery in front of the current Prime Minister and other high-ranking officials.

Millicent Barnold, who is currently the British Minister for Magic, nodded, and 007 slipped the mana battery into a metal wand and aimed it at the portrait hanging on the wall to cast a spell of "shattering bones".

There was a strange thud, and the magic shattered the frame, smashing a large hole in the wall.

The Prime Minister and several of his staff were stunned, obviously taken aback by 007's actions.

"This is a new invention created by the Soviets, a terrible weapon, it can work magic, you guys, you know what it means, when our wizarding agents stole these two things from the laboratory, they were killed by ordinary people who came in with these weapons, Muggles, that is, us ordinary people, it is difficult to kill a prepared wizard if they were not fully armed and prepared, but this time, they were killed by these artificial wands, and died from the magic of ordinary people."

With a thud, 007 slammed his fist into the Prime Minister's desk.

"This is an extremely dangerous signal, if we don't react, the future Soviet Union will have a group of wizard legions composed of ordinary soldiers, Your Excellency Prime Minister, please think about what the future will be like if we don't come up with countermeasures......

"That's enough, Bond."

Agent 007's new head corporal, Mr. M., hurriedly stopped him.

At the same time, the Minister of Magic, Millicent Barnold, who had been silent, also spoke: "My thoughts are the same, I am afraid that the Soviets have begun to study the magical power of wizards and learn some secrets of our wizards' magic, it stands to reason that it is impossible for non-wizards to cast magic, but the spell that Mr. Bond just demonstrated does exist......"

"As I said before, this is a very dangerous sign, ordinary people should not master magic, if this happens, a dangerous omen will befall ......"

Mr. M sighed: "This is not only our problem, but also the trouble that many countries will face, the country of the Soviets is obscured by the magic iron curtain, in case they have mastered the core power of magic, war is inevitable." ”

The prime minister swallowed, and it took him a long time to come to his senses.

"This matter, we can't deal with it alone, we need to inform the Americans and other NATO countries that the Soviets have terrible new technology, technology from magic, since we can't solve this problem, let the Americans solve it, they have more developed scientific research capabilities, maybe only with them, can save the world."

————————

Magic, which began to have an invisible effect on this world, was like a huge radiant force that spread outward from all over the world, constantly changing the course of history.

It was a miraculous time and the most chaotic in history.

The two major groups of the United States and the Soviet Union invested heavyweight resources in the field of magic, and a large number of scientists and wizards devoted themselves to the innovation and transformation of magic, and at the same time, the people were also affected by magic, some chose to resist, some chose not to touch, some were afraid, and more people indifferently waited for the subsequent development.

In other areas, although a group of religious figures, led by the church, and a few religious groups strongly opposed the use of magic among the people, and loudly denounced it as heretical, many religious groups began to embrace magic.

The media in the Western Hemisphere also began to report on paranormal and bizarre events, and some Wicka, voodoo, shamans, practitioners of witchcraft and ritual magic, and a large number of new religious groups were very keen on magic.

They believed that they possessed supernormal psychic abilities before magic was proven, and now they are stepping up their efforts to study the magic system.

Before you know it, the concept of the occult begins to spread, instructing ordinary people who are new to magical objects to master magic.

In the United States, a magic industry is emerging, not inferior to the Soviet Union, and the appearance of magic batteries has shocked the American Congress and the wizarding world, and at the same time, it has also made many scientific giants of this period extremely excited, they believe that this can revolutionize the study of science in the conventional physical world, which is undoubtedly equivalent to the discovery of a new world in science.

Their Soviet counterparts told them that humans could master magic.

In order to win the Cold War, a large amount of dollars was invested in research and development, the fear of accusations of "heresy" and "demon worship" in the churches around the world was put out of mind, national defense engineering and various experimental projects were added to magic-related subjects, Harvard University, the California Institute of Technology, the University of Berkeley, and most of the country's colleges and universities began to study magic.

People began to be fearless and actively explore the new frontiers of magic and science.

At the same time, humanity has begun to face a great crisis brought about by change.
