Chapter XVIII Extraordinary Recovery and the Fear of Muggle Nobility
Chapter XVIII Extraordinary Recovery and the Fear of Muggle Nobility
Alan pulled out his wand.
Gently wave in the direction of the corpse:
"Track the cable!
A red light enveloped the ground, then flew into the sky and turned gray.
Then slowly disappear.
This made Alan breathe a sigh of relief, and then gloat:
"The light turned gray, indicating that the man had long fled England.
Now you have a headache!"
Justin has worked with Alan for so long, and of course he understands the meaning of tracking magic gray.
This means that the wizard has long fled England.
But think about it, it's been one night, and the wizard's fast traffic speed of more than ten hours is enough to travel to most places in the world.
This means that the operation has failed.
"Leave twenty people to clean up the bodies here! The rest of the people close the line!"
Justin said with an ugly face.
Then he ignored Allen and walked out in a huff.
He also had to report to his mother, Queen Isa II.
I hope I won't be scolded too badly then.
Buckingham Palace.
It has stood in Westminster since 1703. This boxy building has a history of more than two hundred years.
Since Victoria ascended the throne in 137, it has become the official residence of the British king.
It bears witness to the grandeur of the Victorian era when the sun never sets, and it has also looked at the loneliness of today.
Countless kings ascended the throne, took the throne, took power, and died here.
At this moment, above this ancient castle, flags embroidered with harps, lions and shields fluttered in the air.
This means that the owner of these 970 ancient Guo Jia is handling government affairs.
Buckingham Palace – Council Hall.
At a long table sat aristocrats in suits and leather shoes.
They exchanged ears about why the Queen had summoned them.
"What else could it be the reason? Custer's thing!"
"That guy is too indulgent and doesn't handle it cleanly!99
"There's nothing wrong with you, are you?"
"Of course not, our family never touches that kind of thing. 35
None of the nobles present took the note seriously.
They are nobles, and they are the masters of this ancient Guo Jia.
Minerals, oil, grain and everything are controlled by them.
Their influence has long permeated every aspect of here.
In their view, the king's summons were merely an account for the people.
At most, it would be a few painless reprimands and then find some reason to rescue the children.
Then use a fishing boat to suppress those sounds.
They have long been familiar with such things.
"By the way, why didn't Custer come?"
"Anton too. Are they scared?"
"Who knows, let's watch the play."
After finding that the time was almost up, but there were still some empty seats.
These noble lords couldn't help but talk a few words, but soon became quiet again.
"The king has arrived!"
With the waiter's loud announcement.
The nobles who were originally still a little wandering sat down one by one, and their faces became solemn.
The moment I saw Issa II (AFDB) walk into the council chamber. The nobles got up one after another and bent slightly to show their respect for the king.
"Everyone is flat!"
Isa II sat behind the main seat and pressed her arm down slightly.
With a neat voice, the nobles sat down one after another.
Glancing at the nobles present, he took a deep look at the empty seats.
Isa II was also not in the mood to sell the guanzi, and said in a deep voice:
"I think you know what I'm looking for you for.
I think most of you think that I will punish me lightly or severely.
But I would like to say that you should take a look at these photos first. ”
Isa II's not quite right tone made everyone chuckle in their hearts.
I don't understand what happened when the queen was so serious.
Especially seeing the gloomy faces of those big nobles close to the main seat after seeing the photo, the bad feeling in their hearts became more and more intense.
The photographs have been circulated.
The conference room, which was originally laughing and relaxed, was as solemn as a cloud at this moment.
"Those... Is it a monster?"
A small nobleman sitting at the end asked tremblingly.
The distorted human body and the corpses of several heads all shocked his soul greatly.
Not only him, but some of the small nobles at the end were like this, and their expressions were very frightened.
It was as if decades of worldview had been refreshed.
The first few big nobles with a long family history laughed contemptuously:
"That's what wizards did, not some monster!"
In my heart, I was even more disdainful of those nobles who could sit with me.
Even if you take advantage of the east wind of industry to have extraordinary assets, what can you do?
Without a long history, the precipitation is just a bunch of nouveau riche.
But this sense of superiority did not last long before it was filled with uneasiness in the heart:
"Your Majesty, didn't we have an agreement?
What is mortal is to the mortal, and what is extraordinary is to the other.
"Yes, Churchill."
Isa II glanced at the old man on the left.
"But, Custer broke the rules.
He took away a wizard's child, so it is understandable to usher in the wizard's revenge. "9
As soon as the voice fell, the originally quiet conference room instantly became noisy.
They just thought those people were weird and terrifying just now, and now they knew that those weird and terrifying people were actually the Count Custer who had once sat with them!
O Count! The figure in the center of power in England turned out to be dead!
And he died in that twisted and weird and undignified way.
How can this make others not afraid of that?
It feels like a person standing at the highest point in the world suddenly discovers that there is a group of people above him who can kill him at will.
"Aren't they afraid of another witch hunt?"
An old man with white hair said gloomy.
The advent of airplanes, tanks and cannons withdrew wizards from domination.
He believes that the same approach will allow these guys who began to be unscrupulous to return to their old days of hiding.
"If I had been before, I might have warned the Ministry of Magic immediately, but now...
Isa II sighed:
"I shouldn't have told you this.
I met with Dumbledore last year.
He told me the news, and he felt as if his magic had started to grow again.
It would have been impossible, but it just happened.
And the number of new students admitted to Hogwarts has also increased in recent years.
I guess this means to everyone. ”
"The magic tide is falling!
X7......"
A nobleman whose old teeth were about to fall out said as if chanting.
This made the big nobles who knew the inside story change their faces one after another.
And the little nobles were a little dazed one by one.
Of course, they are not stupid, and it doesn't seem to be a good thing for them to be able to understand it literally.
The nobleman who was clamoring to repair wizards with hot weapons just now.
At this moment, the fingers are clasped, and the brows are even more locked.
In the family records, he knew how powerful those wizards of antiquity were.
I also know how ordinary people have their own right to rule.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is not so much that they ordinary people defeated the wizards as that the wizards took the initiative to cede worldly power to them.
Coupled with the appearance of various powerful weapons later, they felt that wizards were not afraid, but a group of poor insects hiding.
But now, things seem to be starting to change with the magic recovery!
His mind couldn't help but remember the records in the family history.
'In the year 266 of the Age of the Gods, the holy wizard Gauss was dissatisfied with the gods and gathered the other three holy wizards to slaughter the gods!
The Great War lasted a month, and the gods fell.
The Age of the Gods is over, and the Age of Wizards begins..."
Looking at everyone with different expressions, Isa II said in a deep voice:
"Folks, as Duke Hill Gustav said, the magic tide has receded and the transcendent has revived again.
And we will face different challenges than before.
Firearms will no longer be able to be weapons to protect us.
But wizards will once again reach their peak.
I don't think I need to say more.
'Knock knock!'
The knock on the door made Isa II frown.
"Come in."
A waiter in a red and black dress leaned in to whisper into Isa II's ear.
Isa II's brows stretched quite a bit:
"Let him in.
The waiter walked quickly to the outside of the conference room and whispered a few words.
This mysterious look made everyone look a little puzzled.
They all looked in the direction of the door.
I saw a man wearing a gray robe with some resemblance to Isa II between his eyebrows and walking in.
"Prince Justin?"
A nobleman frowned and shouted uncertainly.
The man nodded gently at the man with a smile.
Walked behind Isa II.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry I couldn't bring that wizard back.
Isa II shook her head:
"No need, my son.
This did not surprise me.
"I think you probably guessed it.
That's right, that's my son, Justin. My eldest son is rumored to have died. 35
