Chapter 1145: Magic Should Not Be Hidden in Dark Alleys
Chapter 1145: Magic Should Not Be Hidden in Dark Alleys
The old members of the Wushu Party who regained their freedom were very calm.
Half a century has passed, and things and people outside have changed.
Because of them, their descendants have been living under the surveillance of the German Ministry of Magic. They have lost not only their freedom, but also the precious fifty years of time they spent with their family and friends.
Vincent didn't let them feel sad for too long, because people from the German Ministry of Magic came and they had to leave Germany as soon as possible.
The speed of Mach 2 was already the limit they could bear now. When the Voice of the Night flew out of the Black Forest, a team of Aurors in the Thestrals finally arrived at Extag.
Like Azkaban, Extag is heavily guarded and has no means of transportation, so one can only enter and exit on foot.
The Aurors all looked gloomy after listening to Muller's story.
A Muggle fighter plane cannot be caught up by the Thestrals alone.
They reported the situation, and their orders were to maintain order in Extag, while the pursuit would be handled by other teams.
After learning that 41 elderly witches had escaped from prison, German Minister of Magic Thaddeus Berger immediately declared a state of emergency for the German wizarding community, sealed off the borders, prohibited any wizards from entering or leaving, and even visited the Muggle Prime Minister in person.
While the two government leaders were talking, the sounds of the night quietly landed beside Lake Constance, southeast of the Black Forest, where Switzerland, Austria and Germany meet.
Under the puzzled eyes of 41 elderly Wuzhui Party members, the Voice of the Night magically transformed into a small submarine.
Vincent faced them, "Everyone, our next stop is Austria."
Speaking of Austria, they all thought of Nurmengard.
It is a great irony that the prison that Grindelwald used to imprison his opponents eventually became his own prison.
Vincent ignored their excited expressions and took the lead in boarding the submarine-formed Voice of the Night.
The space inside the submarine is not large, but it can barely accommodate everyone.
After diving across Lake Constance, they successfully arrived in northwestern Austria.
Go through the jungle to the west and you will find Nurmengard deep in the mountains.
Vincent got off the Sound of Night, which was docked on the lakeshore, and looked out at the mountains to the west.
I wonder how Grindelwald would react if he saw such a large group of old friends. Maybe he had already predicted it in advance.
He turned and looked at the Wucui Party elders behind him, "Everyone, I will explain everything to you now."
Since Grindelwald was defeated by Dumbledore, members of the Wiccan Party in the wizarding world around the world have been either killed or arrested. Except for the European headquarters, all branches in various places have gone underground.
The American branch was apparently wiped out by the Magic Congress three years ago, but in reality it was secretly transferred to Wall Street by Victor, the head of the American branch.
The Asian branch was moved to Hong Kong more than ten years ago. On the surface, it is a tea house related to fortune-telling and feng shui. The person in charge is named Bai Sheng, who is said to be a descendant of the Bai family, an ancient wizard family in the magic world of Dongda.
The scale of the Middle East branch is still limited to the Iraqi region. After being baptized by several wars with Muggles, they are currently hiding in local religions.
The head of the African branch, Amina Ibn Hakim, has been active in the underground black market as an antique dealer in Cairo for twenty years. They are the top force in the dark society of the African magic world.
If the European headquarters insists on saying there is one, it can only be the White Manor of the Rosier family in France.
Vincent and Grindelwald's relationship dates back to the summer three years ago, starting with a prophecy.
[The real Dark Lord is about to appear——
His minions are spread all over the world, and his influence covers the global magical government -
With the help of his two mentors, he grew into a true Dark Lord, possessing the power to conquer the wizarding world.]
Vincent recalled the prophecy, and under the gaze of 41 pairs of expectant eyes, he slowly recounted his experiences over the years, including the hearing held by the British Ministry of Magic the night before.
When Fudge slandered Dumbledore as a conspirator who tried to create panic, the old members of the Witch Party all laughed out loud with glee.
Vincent paused, suddenly curious about how they would react when they found out about the secret relationship between Grindelwald and Dumbledore.
It shouldn’t be a complete collapse, at most the idol filter is probably broken.
"Ahem—" With a meaningful smile on his face, he recounted what happened after the hearing.
In order to conceal Voldemort's return, the British Ministry of Magic put the blame for Azkaban on Vincent.
The fall of a former hero of the wizarding world into a terrifying dark wizard is as ironic as Grindelwald being imprisoned in Nurmengard.
"I went to the White Manor in France during the day. I talked a lot with Vida Rozier, and the reason I rescued you was actually very simple."
Vincent turned his head and looked towards the distant mountains. "Times have changed. Grindelwald's methods no longer work. My Voice of the Night combines the latest Muggle technology with alchemy. You have already experienced its power."
It can become invisible, be remotely controlled, and even change shape.
If this thing were equipped with weapons, a small team could probably wipe out the magical government of a small country.
Vincent looked at them again. "I have another weapon made with the same concept. It can be switched into a variety of different weapon forms. I named it Pandora."
The story of Pandora's Box is also circulated in the magical world. The elders of the Witch Party certainly know that this is a metaphor for the source of disaster.
But no matter how much you say, it will never be as convincing as seeing it with your own eyes.
However, since the Flamel Ring was with Helmut, Vincent activated the projection function of the magic communicator and played a clip of Rita's live broadcast of the hearing the night before.
Although the picture was a bit blurry, one could still see that the grenade launcher in Vincent's hand quickly turned into an exaggeratedly sized anti-material sniper rifle.
Next came the Gatling gun emitting blue flames, and then the flying gunship.
Not to mention Pandora, the immersive experience of magic projection is shocking enough.
Half a century has passed and times have indeed changed.
The magical world is still the magical world, and wizards are still wizards, but Vincent has brought various epoch-making new inventions one after another.
"Gentlemen, my view on the Statute of Secrecy is the same as Grindelwald's. It is a noose that is tightly around the necks of wizards."
Vincent's eyes were like blazing torches, bright and fiery, emitting a strong sense of confidence. "But he and I are a little different. Muggles are much more receptive to the unknown now. I believe we can truly coexist."
He turned sideways and pointed at the distant mountains. "If you are still immersed in the past and unwilling to wake up, then go to Nurmengard and find the old man whose hair and teeth are almost gone."
He paused, and his deep and powerful blue eyes swept over the old men of the Witch Party one by one.
"If you still have hope for the future, then join me, join my Order of Order! Magic shouldn't be hidden in dark alleys; it is the torch that illuminates the future of mankind!"
