Chapter 715 Return ([-])
"New era?" Lucius Malfoy had a disapproving expression on his face.
MacGuffin looked at him, ignored the fellow, and went on:
"I think you should...you should have heard of such a thing more or less, right?"
"There are already other world dimensions that are gradually approaching our world—this is the root cause of all mutations."
"Nothing can stop this from happening!...Just like in ancient times, even the ancient wizards who are as strong as gods...can't stop another world dimension away from our world! Can't stop the slow weakening of magic power in the world...can't delay the decline and collapse of the magic empire at that time..."
McGuffin paused for a moment, and after seeing the clear expressions on the faces of many wizards, he continued,
"Nowadays, as the two world dimensions are getting closer, the magic power of the world will recover in a way that has never been seen before... This kind of weird change in magic power will come in a way that we can't prepare for..."
"This [Universal Train] was forged by the will of our world to prevent and avoid the invasion or collision of that world dimension!"
"In the not-too-distant future, at a certain point in time...after the whole world will be turned upside down, this kind of natural change and weird phenomenon caused by the intersection of worlds...even wizards can't cope with it."
"It is necessary to integrate the power of the entire world, so that the vast majority of people in the world... that is, Muggles... learn to deal with these mutations, let them resist all kinds of weird phenomena, and maintain the stability of the world's operating infrastructure... Only in this way can we ensure that the two world dimensions approach each other in an orderly manner... instead of colliding with each other and causing a devastating catastrophe!"
All the wizards looked skeptical. They felt that McGuffin's statement was too outrageous, even more than before.
Especially Lucius Malfoy, the muscles on his face kept twitching.
He understood what McGuffin meant... that is to say, in the farther future, Muggles must learn to master magic and fight against that weird change.
--not like this!
He resolutely refused to admit this kind of... extremely absurd statement for a pure-blood wizard.
But others, such as Rufus Scrimgeour, Cornelius Fudge, who already had some inside knowledge, have begun to believe this statement a little bit.
After all, in the previous battlefield, Dumbledore had already cast some kind of body transformation magic on some Muggle soldiers, and the magic in that ancient battlefield fortress was too bizarre, and it had already broken his previous cognition that Muggles could not master magic.
Not to mention... all the 'miracles' that McGuffin Albert just showed, it was enough to break through all the experiences Rufus and the others had formed in ordinary times.
At this time, the representatives of foreign wizards, led by Aginbad and Egilbert Fonnert, finally couldn't bear it anymore. Among them... Mrs. Maxim directly squeezed out of the crowd with her tall stature,
She came out, looked down at the little wizard in front of her, and asked seriously,
"What strange talk? What strange phenomenon? What kind of mutation will happen?"
These wizards, they think that McGuffin is fabricating some false stories out of thin air to scare everyone, so that everyone can sign this golden scroll that does not know the price, which is the so-called [Book of Contract].
"Professor? Professor Dumbledore?" McGuffin looked at Albus Dumbledore, "You should know what I'm referring to, right? You can explain...it should be more convincing than me."
"Dumbledore!"
All the wizards... especially the pure-blood wizards who had a close relationship with Lucius Malfoy stared at the old professor with unfriendly expressions.
It seemed... whatever Dumbledore said, they were going to speak out against it.
For a moment, it can be said that the crowd was excited, and the scene in the carriage began to become chaotic again.
But Dumbledore didn't respond directly. After thinking for a while, he borrowed a wand from Hermione who was beside him, and then directly provoked a ray of thought on his temple, which was the memory of the silver-white mist threads.
The mist stirred slowly at the tip of the wand.
"McGuffin!"
"Um……"
Dumbledore waved his wand, and the silver mist flew towards McGuffin like a butterfly.
McGuffin already understood what Dumbledore wanted to do. He directly used the magic power of the [Curse of Echo Blue] ring to spread the mist with his fingers.
Suddenly, like a 3D virtual reality movie screening, the train carriage suddenly dimmed,
scene change...
Suddenly, everyone appeared in a Muggle opera house decoration.
This scene is exactly the memory that Dumbledore once saw with Harry and McGuffin.
——In that part, in the opera house, the Muggle soprano directly mutated into a terrifying monster due to a magic riot.
"Merlin! That man is old Crouch?!"
"—No, it's his father!"
"I seem to have heard of this incident... This is a terrible incident that happened decades ago. It is said that the file of this incident was directly sealed in the deepest part of the Ministry of Magic by the Reticents of the Department of Mysteries. Even... at that time, many staff of the Ministry of Magic who dealt with this incident were cleaned of their memories."
All the wizards talked a lot.Even the Muggles were whispering, trying to figure out which opera house in London this was.
The scenes in the scene continued to change in front of everyone's eyes.
As everything got out of control, the female Muggle singer directly erupted with terrifying magic power, infecting the entire opera house into a hell-like lair of monsters...
This scene shocked everyone present... No one spoke, and there was silence in the air.
The scene continues...
The elite Auror squad of the entire Ministry of Magic, and the powerlessness of old Crouch... added to the depressive atmosphere among the crowd.
There are many wizards who approach Rufus and Connelly directly, and they want to confirm the truth of the matter from these two Ministers of Magic.
After seeing the two nodding with sullen faces, there was an even more uproar in the carriage.
--clang!
The bell of [Dust Ringing Bell] rang again, and the horrible and dark memory disappeared instantly, and the scene changed... Everyone got down to earth again, and appeared in the train compartment.
At this time, even people like Lucius Malfoy held their wands tremblingly, not knowing what to say.
No one spoke up to question.They all understood what the mutation that McGuffin and Dumbledore were referring to would be.
If this kind of thing spreads on a large scale, it doesn't take much... the probability of shootings every month in the United States is enough to trigger hysterical fear and madness among Muggles...
This completely turned the Muggle and wizarding world upside down, completely destroying all social order.
However, Dumbledore obviously did not let everyone go. He stroked his silver beard and calmly explained to everyone again: "This is just a small scene..."
"Small scene?" Babajid Akinbad took a breath and asked in disbelief, "If we read it wrong, that female Muggle is a magic riot... And that opera house is like Voldemort's magic ritual, directly transformed into a different dimension of reflection in the gap between the world..."
Speaking of this, Akinbad also suddenly realized, "Albus, what do you mean..."
"That's right, the essence of the magic ceremony that Voldemort set off this time... is actually roughly the same as the scene you saw just now, relying on the convergence of two world dimensions and a certain special phenomenon caused by abnormal magic power... It's just more grand and rigorously planned."
"Those transformations of Muggle corpses, rapid abnormal shape changes... think about it carefully? If you only rely on Voldemort's power... no matter how powerful he is, can't make such a scene?" Dumbledore said.
"Albus! Didn't you say that Voldemort relied on the power of [Joermungard] to do all that..." Rufus Scrimgeour retorted angrily.
"No, [Jomengard] is just one of the most important prerequisites for that magic ceremony... Don't forget, this great old existence has already been silent in that magic secret realm for thousands, tens of thousands of years."
"If it weren't for the fundamental changes in the environment of the entire world today, the proximity of the two world dimensions has caused a jump in the concentration of magic power in the entire world... It has stimulated the recovery of [Jomungard] from the root, and it is impossible for Voldemort to use the slightest power of this old giant god."
Dumbledore looked very serious,
He recalled again the afternoon after the exams last term, when Trelawney showed him the terrible future:
The world where the two societies of Muggles and wizards merged; the future of destruction and doomsday; the countless monsters, and all kinds of strange phenomena that are beyond comprehension... the generations that appeared one after another.
Perhaps, McGuffin wants to change all this?
Albus Dumbledore even now feels that he... is a little out of control of the world.
The water is too deep!
The tone and expression revealed by Dumbledore shocked everyone a little.
No matter the professor or the student, no matter the Minister of Magic or the ordinary wizard, no matter the wizard or the Muggle...everyone was frightened by the picture described by Dumbledore.
'Will there be such a terrible disaster that almost destroyed a city in the future? '
'Go... TM are you kidding me! '
'If this is the case, what is really needed is: - a few superhumans wearing tights with their own buttocks, super wizards...to form a League of Legends together, maybe this is the only way to save such a world! '
'With just one underage child and a strange broken train...'
- What a joke!
Even without [Instigating Mind], McGuffin knows that everyone in front of him thinks like this!
No matter Muggles or wizards, it is estimated that the thinking should not be far from this.
Everyone was silent. They were afraid and suspicious of what McGuffin and Dumbledore had just explained, and they were extremely resistant in their hearts. However, the evidence in reality proved that all this was happening, so they had no way to refute it and could only face it directly.
At this time, it was Harry who stood up and broke the silence first. He looked at his friend and asked bluntly, "McGuffin, how do you know all this?"
"Harry? Didn't you hear that? That whisper? That incessant ringing?"
"God is ringing, and it's telling you everything..."
McGuffin shook the [Dust Chime Bell] lightly, and the bell echoed.
He injected the information displayed in the system into the [Dust Chime Bell], making it shake continuously, and continuously radiating its power as the magic power oscillated,
The little clock was in the carriage, making deafening but crisp sounds back and forth.
In a trance, amidst the sound of the bell, everyone travels back and forth through time and space...Countless brilliance and stars flashed before their eyes,
Together with them, Harry saw ten thousand years ago, in the ancient world... the grand war between [Jormungandr] and the ancient wizard who was like a god; saw the World Tree and the sun competing for glory...sprinkling pieces of golden sunlight;
More than that, everything that Dumbledore has ever seen is also shown in front of Muggles and wizards:
All kinds of strange stories and strange things appeared one after another in the Muggle society, and all kinds of strange objects and phenomena different from the magic spells produced by the intersection of the two dimensions... caused the governments of the whole world to be overwhelmed:
The unspeakable monster swung its tentacles and submerged half of New York, smashed the Statue of Liberty... and dragged it into the bottom of the sea;
The terrifying radiance of countless nuclear bombs rose on the surface of the planet, and the shock wave wiped out the terrifying monsters surging like a swarm of insects;
Or maybe it is a magical cyber city built by wizards and Muggles... Hanging upside down on the sky, countless steel buildings stand in it, and in the black shadows that have not been illuminated by neon lights, there are countless destitute and impoverished figures.
--clang!
The last bell lingered over the carriage for a long time,
【The Chime of Dust】Slowly fell silent, not ringing anymore.
Only then did everyone wake up and regain their sanity.
"This, is this all true?"
Now everyone present...whether wizards or Muggles, pure-blood wizards or Ministry of Magic employees, even Lucius...all have no doubts about what McGuffin said.
"Okay!" Dumbledore clapped his hands, reminding everyone to sign their names on the [Book of Contract].
"In the face of such abnormalities, only wizards can truly resist. This is our responsibility and obligation... I think everyone should agree to face such a worldwide crisis... Should we face those weird changes together? To save the world..."
"You should have seen it too, if you don't do something... what kind of terrible disaster will it turn into in the end?"
Although Dumbledore wondered why McGuffin could know all kinds of changes in future development, he still let go of his doubts and helped McGuffin persuade other wizards to sign the contract.
"Sir, ladies... Facing all kinds of changes in the future, there is no way for us to escape! Any wizard, no matter what country, age or age... must regard it as their own responsibility..."
Everyone nodded, even Lucius (although it was very reluctant and his face was ugly, but he did not object after all).
"This train...if we guess wrong, it can pick up anyone anywhere in the world at the same time...to the location of the mutation...to extinguish the development momentum of the disaster..."
Under Dumbledore's persuasion and McGuffin's display, everyone signed their names one after another.Even Harry and Hermione put their name on Professor McGonagall's disapproval. (Dumbledore agreed, but Snape kept a cold face and said nothing)
(End of this chapter)
"New era?" Lucius Malfoy had a disapproving expression on his face.
