Chapter 536: Madness is not less
In fact, Hermione's anger was unavoidable.
With Ron's attitude,.。
In Ron's words, that's vomiting, and in Hermione's mouth, it's the gospel of house-elves.
Van Lin doesn't think so.
A sincere fear embedded in the bones of the race, I have to say that Hermione chose a very difficult path.
"I was about to tell you that I've been working hard for over a week and we're going to do something for the house-elves. ”
......
Well, it seems that Hermione is the only one who is so eager.
Harry and Van Lin are completely unscathed, in Dobby's words, although Dobby is a very alternative house-elf, but even such a free-spirited Dobby, after facing the loss of his job, Dobby will become helpless.
The current house-elves can't do without this, and there is no doubt that if they don't have a job, they will definitely die.
Like Ron said, they love to work.
Any house-elf, except Dobby, if you pay him, it's going to be as bad as their life.
Even, life and work are equated.
Van Lin somewhat regretted telling Hermione about the house-elf kitchen, which was definitely inseparable from it, and of course, the main thing was the sparkling thing.
Even to others, orthodox wizards, Crouch was cruel to his servants.
Everyone knows that Twilight didn't do anything, but Crouch still fires Twinkle.
Worst of all, there is no news from Dobby yet, Twilight has not known where she has gone since she was released from the Ministry of Magic, and Dobby can't find her at all.
This poor little elf.
In fact, house-elves are born with magical powers, and as they grow older, their magic is no less than that of an adult wizard.
But what's worse is that these house-elves don't have any means of attack at all, except for some advanced life magic.
The simplest magic push?
It's not powerful, it doesn't threaten wizards at all, a powerful knockback spell, that's all.
They are a lowly race, they must serve their masters for generations, they are slaves of old and rich wizarding families, they do all the housework, they are bound by their masters, they cannot disobey their masters' orders at will, and if they disobey, they must punish themselves. Possess magic and must be allowed to cast spells with the owner's permission. The condition for their freedom is that their master hands them a piece of clothing, but the traditional concept of house-elves is that it is a shame to be expelled from the house by the owner
In fact, the relationship between house-elves and wizards was not like this before.
There is actually a blood relationship between house-elves and goblins.
However, as two races, the goblins are more aggressive and the house-elves are more gentle.
It's a stark response to this, and the goblins are well aware of their own strength.
In fact, many house-elves have much more magic than wizards.
The nature of magic allows them to traverse the barrier at will, and Dobby can bring Van Lin to China through a few unstable shapeshifts, while wizards need to depict long-distance magic arrays.
His grandmother was like that.
Even Dumbledore could not have accomplished such a thing, and a change of shape arrived in China.
It can be seen that house-elves, as magical creatures, have no problems in terms of strength.
But on some things, the two races diverged.
Everyone knows that in the history of magic, humans are not a powerful race, especially in the face of those who are inherently powerful.
Wyvern, Giant......
Before the elves were extinct, humans would not be able to touch all the forests.
However, in the end, the elven race chose humans, and just like the elves, they believed that humans were a promising race.
In fact, dragons don't need the help of goblins to be powerful.
A full-grown dragon can take on an entire city, but it's not a Norwegian spinback or anything like that, and the dragon's mountain size is a terrible experience for humans.
However, in the end, humanity still prevailed, and they won one war after another, and the price of this was naturally the replacement of personnel.
The same goes for goblins.
The first group of visionary goblins had died, and in fact, there was a period of inactivity, and Fan Lin felt that someone might have done something, but it was too far away to investigate.
But one thing is certain, house-elves were originally equal to humans.
It's just that the character of the race determines that the house-elf is not destined to become a heroic warrior, and with the development of magic, the strength of human beings gradually increases.
A strong sorcerer can protect a lot of people, and naturally, these people need to serve him.
House-elves are one of them.
They didn't like to fight, but that didn't mean they could accept slavery.
It is very appropriate to use it subtly here.
Everyone has become accustomed to this pattern, the service of house-elves, and they are proud of it.
However, after the end of the war, the established pattern was broken, and the elves needed space to survive.
At least at the time, goblins and house-elves were one race.
They are not satisfied with the rights given by human beings, or rather, they are worse than they were before.
In the first goblin war, the first thing humans captured was the part that belonged to the house-elves.
They are too bad at fighting.
Even if they have great magical powers, but they are neglected by war and protected by their own kind, house-elves are vulnerable and defenseless in front of human wizards.
Humanity begins its first enslavement.
However, ambition can never be satisfied, and it takes conquest to match it.
Naturally, the power was weakened at the second time, and the goblin war broke out for the second time.
In fact, counting the recent goblin rebellion, there have been three goblin wars.
Through constant warfare, enslavement, and capture, humans have completely turned these house-elves into their vassals.
Humans have destroyed the living environment of the house-elves, and they can only live on humans.
The last goblin rebellion turned the elves over, and their strength was remembered by the race.
In fact, the fact that non-humans are not allowed to hold wands is enough for the goblins to rebel. What's more, there are no representatives of goblins among the Wizengamot.
As said before, in terms of magic, goblins are not weaker than humans, and it can be said that in some ways, goblins are powerful.
Coupled with the decline of humanity, naturally, the goblins have triumphed, as evidenced by the establishment of Gringotts.
Human wizards work for goblins, which was a joke hundreds of years ago.
The goblins are very satisfied with this, equal rights.
However, their people have been abandoned by the elves, and the house-elves have been completely enslaved.
From the very beginning of the struggle to the newborn, human beings carry out brainwashing education and indoctrination.
As mentioned before, although the house-elves are powerful, it is impossible to resist such a conquest.
Coercion and temptation, to be exact, brainwashing plus sticks and whipping.
That kind of slavery has been passed down from generation to generation with brainwashing indoctrination.
It's like the first thing that changed when a foreign country invaded was the learning of language.
In the later Goblin Wars, house-elves were completely tied to humans.
For their own goblin kind, the choice of house-elves undoubtedly made all goblins feel disappointed and angry.
Naturally, the goblins will not accept betrayers.
There's a lot more to know about house-elves.
According to research, the founder of Hogwarts, Lady Hufflepuff, perfected the school with the help of domestic elves.
The names of the house-elves are no longer recorded, but the house-elf kitchen is undoubtedly the best proof of this.
Enslavement of house-elves is a Hogwarts tradition, or not.
It's paradoxical, but at least, the house-elf in the kitchen won't have anyone to hit him.
Their lives are at least safe, albeit somewhat numb.
It can be said that this is a kind of racial discrimination.
Like Voldemort's pure-bloods, they believed that wizards should enslave Muggles and keep their bloodlines pure.
This is simply impossible, but with great benefits and honors, many wizards flock to it.
Naturally, there were a lot of opposing voices, and this led to the confrontation, Voldemort's defeat.
It's a change of times.
However, the era of house-elves is still stuck in the past, and they are still enslaved.
This became a habit for wizards.
Come to think of it, every wizard is no less than a crazed Death Eater.
They take the service of the parent elf for granted.
This represents the vast majority of traditional wizards, and Hermione's theories are more appropriate to develop in Muggle wizards.
That's good news, do something big.
It can be seen that Hermione has prepared a lot for this, from the Goblin Rebellion in the history of magic, to the legal documents of the Ministry of Magic.
Hermione even developed a theoretical system of house-elves.
Hermione's efforts were naturally not negligible, but there was no way to rush this kind of thing.
With just a few little wizards, it is undoubtedly very difficult and crazy to push into the huge inherent system.
Van Lin shook his head, he gently touched Hermione's head, and the girl was a little aggrieved.
"Isn't there much madness now?" said Van Lin softly.
Voldemort, plus a Grim Reaper, Van Lin didn't care about one more thing.
"We can do it together, but it's going to take a long time, and if you persevere, then be prepared. ”
