Chapter 373: Ministry of Magic (There are still indefinite word counts to arrive in Beauxbatons!)
In fact, Dumbledore's exclamation was not unreasonable. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wizards, this is a stubborn and self-styled group, according to the rules, backwardness is to be beaten.
And the wizarding community happens to exist in this awkward area.
The wizarding community, led by the Ministry of Magic, rejected Muggle products, believing that Muggle products would hinder the progress of wizards and wizards, and would affect the purity of magic.
In fact, without Muggles, the life of every wizard would be extremely miserable.
Whether it is food, clothing, shelter and transportation, these are inseparable from the work of Muggles, magic is only magic after all, compared to people, magic products have lost the most critical creativity.
Without Muggles, wizarding societies would have regressed to the more brutal Middle Ages, and this time, wizards would no longer be gods.
Once a war breaks out, ordinary wizards with low talent will be completely reduced to the lowest level of soldiers, which is obviously unacceptable to the wizard community.
Aside from the papal hunts, each generation of wizards is superior to Muggles.
In fact, wizarding societies are gradually embracing Muggle societies, with the establishment of the Ministry of Magic, newspapers, and factories all being born from Muggle wisdom.
In recent years, whether it is the emergence of Grindelwald or the rampant Voldemort, this has seriously hindered the contact between the British wizarding community and Muggle society.
Compared to Muggles, wizards were undoubtedly backward.
Muggle thermal weapons, for example, wizards can use their wands to block one or several bullets, but what if they were more powerful thermal weapons?
If those monsters appeared, Van Lin didn't think that a wild giant would be able to stop an intercontinental Tomahawk missile, let alone an even more dangerous nuclear weapon.
It was now a nuclear civilization, and the Muggles' means of attack had evolved from the original sword to thermonuclear weapons.
In terms of sheer destructive power, wizards seem to be nowhere near as good as these weapons. Wizards can only evade with dodge, or some spell that stuns the mind.
Wizards need a lot of progress.
However, these earth-destroying weapons are still the fundamental ones that cannot be used after all, and for the entire environment, the outbreak of every missile is undoubtedly a fatal existence.
However, without the use of these weapons, the power of magic would strike fear into all Muggles.
According to the extent of Van Lin, if you use it with all your might, every spell is no less than the explosion of a grenade, and such an existence is undoubtedly fatal in the Muggle world.
The power of magic, the threat of thermal weapons, which seems to form a dead knot between wizards and Muggles, is a bad cycle.
Van Lin couldn't imagine what it would be like for wizards and Muggles to break out at war.
Van Lin didn't think that wizards could win, after all, talent is the foundation of the world, and only one wizard will be born out of ten thousand, of course, this is the lowest probability.
However, it also proves that wizards are rare, and the case of winning more with less still exists in books.
If war really breaks out and angers the Muggles, a nuclear warhead will come down, and the entire Ministry of Magic will be razed to the ground without incident.
But......
Van Lin felt as if he was thinking a little too complicated, wizards hiding, and it seemed to have developed into a law.
Van Lin has also seen the power of magic with his own eyes, no less than the power of missiles The magic array bursts, this is not also the strength of wizards, it's just that this is a different way of energy transfer and catharsis.
"Welcome to the Ministry of Magic. A mechanized female voice slammed Van Lin back to reality.
Van Lin only felt that they had dived a few hundred feet, the underworld of London, the kingdom of wizards, and the British Ministry of Magic.
You may not believe it, but Van Lin is following Albus Dumbledore, the greatest white wizard in the world, into the highest authority in the wizarding world through the guest passage.
Everything here is laid out with black tile inlays, and the edges and corners are all painted with gold carvings.
Ahead is a huge fountain with a huge golden statue of art, which is not difficult for the Ministry of Magic.
And the place where they came down was also a black tile, and Van Lin guessed where some disguise magic was cast similar to the entrance to the platform of nine and three, in order not to destroy the overall coordination.
The floating circle replaced the cables of the elevator, and Muggles could always be found wherever they came from.
Like most government agencies, the Ministry of Magic is crowded with people, as all judicial and administrative bodies are located hundreds of feet underground in London.
Van Lin felt that it was more like a sprawling subway station, except that what was supposed to be a human-shaped passage to and from here was replaced by one fireplace after another.
This is the station for wizards, and it is also the transit point for all the Flying Furnace Nets.
The Ministry of Magic has to be responsible for the wizards, doesn't it?
Van Lin also knew that the Muggle Prime Minister knew about the existence of the Ministry of Magic, otherwise the Ministry of Magic would not have been able to stay so peacefully underground in London without the permission of the Muggles.
"How does it feel?" said Dumbledore, "It's a good experience to walk through the earth's crust, and people who have come to the Ministry of Magic have been on the Furnace Net. ”
"Great lift. Van Lin nodded, he looked at the sky, the walls were decorated with glass dozens of feet high, and there were countless paper cranes in the form of documents flying above Van Lin's head.
It is worth mentioning that the Ministry of Magic seems to be trying to stagger the Muggle time, it is only past seven o'clock in the morning, and the fireplaces on both sides have not been interrupted at all, and every time the dark green flame is lit, one person will come out of the flame, perhaps this is what magic attracts him.
"Where are we going. Dumbledore said, gesturing to the elevator next to the rotunda.
Strictly speaking, their current location is more like a station.
The crowd wasn't all Ministry of Magic staff, and Van Lin even heard some shouting, which reminded him of Diagon Alley.
"Daily, daily, latest issue of the Daily Prophet. "It's a paperboy's professionalism, and something like a newspaper only sells well in the morning.
"Well, would you like one?" Dumbledore asked.
"Forget it, Professor Dumbledore. Van Lin shook his head, he wanted to take a look at the Department of Mysteries more than the Daily Prophet, and the place where Mr. Weasley worked.
However, it is destined that Van Lin's wish will be frustrated, they still have a lot of things to do today, maybe it would be good to wait for Harry to come along.
