Chapter 7: Changed! It's all changed!
"What do you mean by the intersection of the stars and the stars?" Ted felt his throat a little dry. A bad premonition hovered in my mind.
Sure enough, Mr. Giggs's next words made him gasp.
The Celestial Stars Meet, is the word used in the wizarding world to describe the intersection of two worlds.
It is said to have happened twice so far.
The first was in 1945, and it is said to have happened soon after Dumbledore was defeated and Grindelwald imprisoned in Newmontgard.
At that time, the heavens were in chaos, and the positions of the stars in the sky were confused.
Even in broad daylight, you can see some huge celestial bodies moving in the sky.
An anomalous celestial phenomenon that lasted for four and a half months!
During those months, the weather was also extremely unusual.
From the scorching sun to the heavy snow, it may only take a few hours.
It rained at the pole, and hail the size of an egg fell in the rainforest.
Even the length of the day varied, the longest day was forty hours before the sun set, and the shortest day and night added up to twelve hours.
And there are a lot of things in this world that don't exist in the first place.
For example, otherworldly magical creatures, herbs, and so on.
During that time, the uncontrolled scurrying of magical creatures from the other world directly caused the Muggle world, which was already frightened by anomalous celestial phenomena and weather, to be terrified.
If it weren't for the fact that it was the end of World War II, the Muggle world was in chaos, and technology was not yet developed, and it was not as casual as it is now, the secrecy of the wizarding world would have been abolished.
It is said that it took months of great effort for the wizarding world as a whole to use the Muggle regime and the expert media to keep things under wraps.
Then cover up the new magical creatures and don't rush into the Muggle world to cause trouble.
But to this day, there are still magical creatures that unexpectedly appear in front of Muggles. The Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters and the Department of Magical Creatures Management and Control of the Ministry of Magic are often overwhelmed by this.
At the mention of this, Mr. Giggs laughs gloatingly.
It seems that he is very happy with the deflated Ministry of Magic.
Ted suddenly remembered the bizarre urban anecdotes he had seen in the old newspapers, and thought that the newspapers were deliberately working hard for sales.
I didn't expect it to be a serious newspaper!
And the dwarves of the otherworldly race appeared after the second meeting of the stars.
Mr. Giggs: "The second meeting of the stars was ten years ago, after the mysterious man was defeated by the boy who did not die......"
"By the way, you know the boy who won't die, right?" He asked.
"Yes." Harry Potter.
Mr. Giggs patted his thigh excitedly: "That's right! It's Neville Longbottom! β
Ted: Huh? (#οΎΠοΎ)οΌ
"Neville Longbottom?" Ted's throat was even drier, and it was almost smoking, no, sparks!.
Ted: Oh no, it's really not good!
Mr. Giggs nodded, "Thanks to Neville Longbottom, the more than one-year-old defeated the Mystic Man and put an end to the chaos. The second meeting of the stars took place after the defeat of the mysterious man. β
He pointed out the window, "Dwarves, elves, subhumans, and the like, including those ugly and evil fishmen, kobolds, and goblins, all appeared after the second meeting of the stars. It's been ten years now. β
The tortoise shell in Ted's hand is going to be crushed, except for the dwarves and elves? And what are the subhumans? Fish-people, kobolds......
Ted was trembling with anger, his whole body was cold in a cold sweat on a hot day, and his hands and feet were cold.
Hell is empty, the devil is in the world, can this world be better?
What do you want to do with the traverser?
Tears flowed down uncontrollably, the world is full of malice towards the traverser, when will the traverser really stand up?
Mr. Giggs was still talking: "No, the dwarves and elves are closer to wizards, and this dwarven blacksmith shop is the first shop opened by an otherworldly race in Diagon Alley!" Everyone is there to watch the fun! β
"By the way, Ted, why don't you go check it out? When can't you do work? β
Ted stiffened to his feet, and the walking dead walked out the door, thinking about the meeting of the stars.
This is all like this, can the original plot continue?
Senior Colonel Chu said: The biggest advantage of a traverser is that he is familiar with the plot! Now that I'm doing nothing, the advantage is gone! Scald~
Ted went to see the dwarf, and sure enough, it was the kind under the fantasy worldview, about one meter three tall, with a very thick body, like a big wine barrel, with a long beard, tied with copper rings and tied into braids.
The dwarven boss raised his voice, as if he had a constant "loud voice".
He was very dissatisfied with the onlookers of the wizards, blowing his beard and glaring.
"Oh my God! I don't know if the elder is old and confused, what's the use of coming here to open a blacksmith shop? Seen as a monkey! What are these pockmarked wizards to build? "The sound is like a bell.
On the side, a female dwarf who did not have a beard, but was still short, persuaded, "Be quiet, the elder intends to let us integrate into the wizarding world. Opening a store is the first step......"
β¦β¦
Ted finally stabilized his mind, and in the afternoon, while he was tally at the bookstore, Ted chatted with the clerk at the bookstore.
"Aaron, do you know of any books about the intersection of the stars?"
Aaron said, "You're also interested in the Celestial Star Convergence because of the newly opened dwarven blacksmith shop?" β
"Look at that Fantastic Beasts in Ten Years: Supplement, which was published two months ago. In addition, it is the record of the last ten years in the "History of Magic". β
"You know, we don't even know how much more of the world we didn't have before. Ten years is still too short, who knows if there is anything strange in the middle of nowhere......"
Ted briefly skimmed through Aaron's recommended book of Fantastic Beasts: Supplements in Ten Years, from goblins to kobolds.
At present, the fish-people, goblins, and kobolds are all classified as magical beasts by the Ministry of Magic. It's still a dangerous level.
Also, these races are incomprehensible and malevolent.
In other worlds, aren't these monsters?
As for the history of magic, I haven't even looked at this textbook - who would want to read it?
As a result, I never expected that in the history of the past ten years, there would be such a big surprise.
After leaving work in the afternoon, Ted returned to the Leaky Cauldron.
Old Tom was still wiping his oak glass behind the counter, as if he would never finish wiping it.
Ted walked over and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Tom, a new shop has opened in Diagon Alley today, the Dwarven Blacksmith Shop." I hear a new word β the intersection of the stars and the stars, can you tell me about it? β
Old Tom, as a bar owner, is naturally well-informed.
Ted wanted to verify the accuracy of the message with him. Perhaps Old Tom could have known something in more detail.
"You say the stars meet. Indeed, 10 years ago there was a big mess. There are also many careless wizards who have been killed by those otherworldly monsters and races! β
Old Tom began to tell stories about otherworldly races and otherworldly monsters for ten years.
The elves, dwarves, and dwarves from the other world are similar to Ted's impression, and they have their own civilization and magical powers, so they are more harmonious with the magical world.
Elves, in particular, are good-looking, elegant, rich, magical, and long-lived, which is a plus in the eyes of wizards.
"An elven elder was invited to join the Wizengamot five years after the second conjunction. At that time, the Daily Prophet ran a week-long report......"
The Wizengamot is the highest authority in the British wizarding world, having existed much earlier than the Ministry of Magic.
Members include the Minister of Magic, the Senior Deputy Minister of Magic, senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, and other prominent wizards. It has a great influence on the British Ministry of Magic.
Being accepted in just five years, and even being invited to join the Wizengamot, shows that the elves do have a set.
The so-called subhuman race means that humans have certain animal characteristics.
For example, it has animal ears and animal tails.
Furuikong ecstasy~
Compared to the fish-men, kobolds, goblins, and the like, the race that kills and eats people, and is classified as a humanoid monster, the subhuman race is recognized by the wizarding world as a humanoid race, that is, it is accepted as a "human".
But compared to the super-national treatment of elves, many pure-blood families are very unfriendly to these sub-human races, feeling that they are as lowly as Muggles, and even mongrels.
As for the monsters from the other world, there are too many of them, and I can't finish them in a day and a night.
Old Tom lent him a copy of The Magical Creatures You Should Know.
This is a book that was only published last year, and it not only records the common magical beasts and dark magic creatures, but also records the many dangerous magical creatures that appeared after the two celestial stars met.
"Take your time, don't be in a hurry to return it." Old Tom said.
