Although as a personal preference, he would like to see similar actions happen more often in the future, but he does not understand Hermione's intention in doing so.
After all, whether it is a wizard or a mage, they are generally more suitable for keeping a distance and performing long-range attacks.
This can be seen from the fact that both of them usually wear robes that are not suitable for large movements.
Although the narrow skirt of a women's dress will make it difficult to move the thighs above the knees to a certain extent, it actually does not affect the movement speed much compared to a long robe, and it will not deform the movements of waving a wand and casting spells.
unless……
Just when Zuo Si was thinking of something, Hermione suddenly waved her wand and chanted the first spell.
"Flying sand and rocks!"
moment!
A blue flame gushed out.
This is a very powerful offensive spell that can produce a powerful explosion to destroy objects, or it can knock the opponent away and throw them into the air to cause serious injury.
Generally speaking, only the top and most outstanding students in Hogwarts above the sixth grade can barely learn it.
If you want to truly unleash its power, you often need to add extremely strong malice.
In other words, only those criminals who are defined as dark wizards by the magic world can truly unleash the full effect of the [Sand and Rock Curse].
There is no doubt that under Zuo Si's constant influence, Hermione is no longer the innocent and kind girl she used to be. Instead, she has a deep understanding of the cruel nature of this world and has reshaped herself in terms of thought and cognition.
Especially the systematic magic theories from the continent of Faerun and the floating city world. According to the judgment standards of the British Ministry of Magic, it is estimated that more than 50% of them will be classified as evil black magic.
Like the necromancy spells that play with corpses and souls, the enchantment spells that control, invade and destroy the mind and will, and the curse spells that summon terrible creatures such as demons and devils from dangerous alternate dimensions such as the abyss and hell, which one is not more terrifying than the three unforgivable curses, Horcruxes and Inferi.
You have to know that Voldemort only killed people at best. He never imprisoned, tortured or forced anyone's soul, and the number of people he killed with his own hands was less than four digits.
In the continent of Faerun and the floating city world, this doesn't even meet the minimum standard of "leading bad guys".
If you are not mentally prepared, just taking a look at certain spells will inevitably cause physical and psychological discomfort.
So in the process of reading and learning this knowledge, the girl unknowingly accepted the idea that magic and energy are just tools, and she firmly believed that the final decision on how to use them lies with the wizard.
This also means that she will not follow the principle of using non-lethal spells as much as possible in spell duels like other students at Hogwarts.
In addition, Hermione was very clear that common spells such as the Disarming Spell, Sleeping Spell, Petrifying Spell, Imprisoning Spell, Leg-Locking Spell had almost no effect on Zuo Si, so he could only use some dangerous spells with greater power and lethality.
As for whether this would hurt her boyfriend, she never considered this issue from beginning to end.
After all, even two Dark Lords and a large group of Death Eaters could not pose any threat to Zuo Si, let alone her current ability.
Boom!!! With a deafening roar, the entire lawn where Zuo Si was standing, along with the soil underneath, flew into the air.
Fortunately, the broken tables, chairs and decorations were all cleared aside, otherwise there would probably be more damage from the fragments.
“Good job!”
Zuo Si, who teleported to a distance of more than ten meters through Apparition, gave a very pertinent evaluation.
As a young girl who has never experienced a real battle, the fact that she could use such a powerful offensive spell at the beginning at least showed that she already had the potential to fight for life and death at the critical moment.
You must know that showing mercy to the enemy is tantamount to digging your own grave!
This is almost a universally acknowledged truth among spellcasters in Faerun and the floating city world.
"Why don't you fight back?"
Hermione tilted her head with a puzzled expression.
Zuo Si smiled and replied, "If I fight back, you may not have another chance to show the results of your study. So I will only attack you once in this test. If you can pass the test in the end, I will fulfill a small wish of yours."
"A wish? Is it like Aladdin's magic lamp in the Thousand and One Nights?" the girl asked with a playful smile.
"That's about right. But you have to be careful with your wording when making this wish, and don't be too greedy, otherwise it might misinterpret your words." Zuo Si reminded meaningfully.
"It sounds like a lot of fun! Then I'm going to give it my all! Be careful, this is a surprise I prepared especially for you..."
Before he finished speaking!
Hermione suddenly used her silent spellcasting skills, and instantly appeared behind Zuo Si through Apparition and shouted, "Ten thousand bullets fired!"
Whoosh!
A large group of birds emitting golden light shot towards Zuo Si like raindrops, and completely blocked his vision for a short time.
"Freeze them all!"
Zuo Si gently waved his wand to freeze the birds in mid-air, and said with a smile, "Dear Miss Granger, spells and tricks of this level have no effect on me."
"Really? Then what about this!"
The girl's voice suddenly came from behind, followed by a strong wind.
Since he had recently practiced swordsmanship with the lithomancer Nahiri, and was also dragged by his cheap teacher Sorin to practice fighting skills every day, Zuo Si's reaction can be said to be quite sharp.
Coupled with his extremely high perception attribute, he sensed the danger less than a second in advance. Combined with his agility attribute which was also many times greater than that of a normal person, he simply chose to dodge sideways.
The next second...
A slender thigh flashing with a silver magic halo pressed against the forehead, nose, chest and lower abdomen, smashing down with an incomparable momentum.
Bang! When the heel touched the ground, a deep pit was immediately created, and dirt and weeds were splattered everywhere.
Incredibly, despite such a violent impact, neither the high heels nor the fragile ankles suffered any damage.
Not to mention getting hurt, even dirt and weeds falling on it will slide down automatically.
The strengthening magic used by the Kor people in the Zendikar plane?! Looking at the long legs standing in front of him, Zuo Si finally showed an extremely surprised expression.
You have to know that the essence of the magic used by the Ko people is to attach energy to weapons or armor to enhance their hardness, toughness and sharpness.
In other words, this magic is used to strengthen "dead things" rather than "living people".
He was just curious at first, so he recorded this rough use of magical energy and threw it into the doomsday bunker without spending too much time studying it.
But the girl had apparently learned the strengthening magic in the notebook, and secretly made improvements to it to strengthen her body, giving herself quite terrifying melee attack power.
Seeing that her attack missed, Hermione raised her other hand without a wand and instantly shot out several magic missiles that were flashing with faint light and flew close to her face.
As the distance was too close, Zuo Si had no time to think and immediately activated the [Shield Technique] to ensure that he would not be hit in the face.
But then he saw the girl take this opportunity to make a very powerful movement centered on one leg, and then raised the other leg high and kicked towards the right side of her head.
Just like before, this leg is also wrapped in strengthening magic.
Judging from the destructive force that just happened to the lawn, if it were hit, it would have to withstand at least several tons of impact force.
Obviously, although it can be seen from these movements and force techniques that Hermione has not received any formal and strict combat training, the muscle lines on her legs prove that she must have done some practice in private.
Otherwise, it is difficult for ordinary people to kick one leg above the shoulder while maintaining balance.
If it had been in the past, when faced with a situation like this, Zuo Si would definitely transform into a spirit or teleport to a relatively safe location as soon as possible.
However, with his basic attributes of strength, agility and physique, as well as the fighting skills that Sorin forced him to practice, he is fully capable of dealing with the current situation.
This time, he neither dodged nor used Apparition. Instead, he raised his hand and grabbed the ankle that was kicked towards his head from the side. He asked with a half-smile, "Is this the surprise you prepared for me? An improved enhanced magic that can greatly increase the melee ability of wizards and mages?"
"That's right! Because I know that if I just compete with magic and spells, I won't have any chance of winning. But if I change my mindset and combine magic with melee attacks, I might be able to gain a chance of winning."
Hermione expressed her thoughts and ideas in a slightly proud tone.
I have to say that she is really smart. Whether it is the tactics she developed or the successful improvement of the enhanced magic from another world, it is all amazing.
But the fierce approach of directly engaging in hand-to-hand combat when magic failed immediately made Zuo Si imagine the image of a magical girl with twin ponytails from another world.
What kind of behavior is this?
Just as he was silently complaining in his heart, Hermione suddenly pulled back her caught leg, raised her arm and shot out a lot of black oil from the front of her wand.
First-level magic [Grease]! Without asking, one could tell that the girl wanted to use this method to disturb Zuo Si's balance, and then find the right opportunity to pounce on him and knock him to the ground.
Unfortunately, magic that affects the terrain has almost no effect on Zuo Si.
He just raised his foot and stepped on the air, and then he stood in the air about ten centimeters above the ground.
"Stop the curse immediately!"
Hermione tried to remove the magic by removing the curse, causing Zuo Si to fall.
Unfortunately, this is obviously not an ordinary magic effect, but one of the abilities bestowed upon the chosen people by the goddess of poison and disease Talona. Its essence is the effect of divine power in the body.
Perhaps some powerful high-level or even legendary wizards could temporarily destroy it, but it was obviously too difficult for Hermione.
After finding that it didn't work for several times in a row, she decisively chose to give up and directly gave herself [Free Action] to implement close combat tactics, only activating some magic or spells that can be released instantly in the intervals between attacks.
For example, the Shadowless Spell, the Cutting Spell, the Fire Spell, the Magic Missiles, the Acid Arrows, as well as the Flash Spell and Flash Dust that can blind people, etc.
In addition, since the hands have to perform various complex casting movements, the girl's physical attacks are mainly completed by kicking, stomping and knee strikes with her legs, which looks quite pleasing to the eye.
For a moment, the two wizards who were supposed to be shooting at each other from a distance with their wands, or the mages who were supposed to be fighting with all kinds of dazzling arcane magic, actually staged a close and high-speed offensive and defensive battle.
Since both physical and magical attacks are delivered close to the face, Zuo Si often only has a few tenths of a second to react.
Without using the [Hourglass of Time] to peek into the future, he could only defend himself through instant spells and silent casting techniques, and he might suffer a small loss if he was not careful.
Of course, the advantage is that you can see many different and wonderful "sceneries" during the battle.
After the girl had fully demonstrated the magic she had mastered at this stage, Zuo Si used a spell to freeze her in place, and then he lifted the spell and said with satisfaction: "Considering your age and the time you have been exposed to magic, it is quite good to be able to achieve this level. If I am not mistaken, you must have used the time converter a lot during this period, right?"
"Of course! In order to catch up with you, I tried my best to learn the magic knowledge recorded in those books. And I have a question, you obviously didn't use any magic to strengthen yourself, why do you have such great strength and such a fast reaction speed?" Hermione asked with a puzzled look on her face.
After she successfully improved the strengthening magic, she immediately conducted a destructive test.
As a result, even hard rocks would be shattered instantly with one kick, not to mention the fragile human body.
This is also the reason why she feels that she has a chance of winning.
"Hahahaha! This involves another little secret of mine." Zuo Si couldn't help laughing.
"Damn it! Stop keeping me in suspense! Tell me now!"
The girl hugged Zuo Si's neck and began to rub against him, acting coquettishly.
"This secret may be a little shocking. Are you sure you really want to know?" Zuo Si blinked mysteriously.
Hermione nodded without hesitation and responded, "Very much. I've even known the big secret that you're from another world and own a city floating in the sky for days. Nothing can shock me anymore."
"In that case, let me show you."
As he spoke, Zuo Si gently pushed the girl away and began to retreat. Only after reaching a safe place did he release his dragon form.
In the blink of an eye, a giant dragon covered with blue scales appeared out of thin air on the grass.
Gulp!
Looking at the huge monster so close, its eyes flashing with lightning, and the majesty it exuded unintentionally, Hermione only felt her whole body trembling slightly uncontrollably at this moment.
Although she knew very clearly that the super dragon in front of her was Zuo Si and would not hurt her at all, she still felt afraid instinctively.
This fear does not come from the unknown, but is a subconscious reaction from genes to soul, and is accompanied by dry mouth and excessive sweating.
After a full minute, the girl took a deep breath, smiled bitterly and said self-deprecatingly: "Okay! I take back what I said just now. Your secret almost made me stop breathing. So - your true identity is a giant dragon with wisdom that can transform into a human form?"
"No, this is just a change that happened by chance.
It gave me the strength, physique, and various spell-like abilities of a dragon.
By the way, in many magical worlds, dragons are much smarter and stronger than humans, and they are not fire-breathing beasts like in the magical world.
For example, the blue dragon I am transforming into now can control lightning at will."
As he spoke, Zuo Si raised his front paws and gathered a little bit of electrical energy.
moment!
The dazzling white electric light gathered into a ball in the palm of his hand, and at the same time continuously discharged into the surrounding air, making bursts of crackling explosions.
"You mean... if I continue to study those magics in depth, I will be able to gain the power to transform into a dragon one day?"
Hermione's eyes sparkled slightly, and she was obviously deeply attracted by the powerful force possessed by the real dragons of the continent of Faerun.
"As far as I know, there is a spell called [Transfiguration Dragon] in the Ninth Ring Magic, which can turn the caster into a giant red dragon. In addition, starting from the Fifth Ring Magic Dragon Covenant, the arcane spells of the conjuration system can temporarily summon giant dragons in their teenage years to serve them."
Zuo Si answered as he reverted to human form and began to clean up the damage caused by the battle.
Not only that, he also restored all the broken tables, chairs and decorations to their original state.
Hermione looked thoughtful, and then continued to ask, "I remember that these magics can only be used when you are by my side, right?"
"Not necessarily. I laid a magic net in the floating city not long ago, so it can be used there as well. In addition, considering your outstanding performance in the battle just now, I decided to fulfill my promise and grant you one wish now."
While speaking, Zuo Si gently touched the magic ring on his finger - [Control of Omar V].
Before the girl could react to what was happening, a huge fire giant appeared out of nowhere, put one hand on his chest and bowed humbly.
"My powerful and invincible master, your servants are at your command."
Obviously, the reason why he took this attitude was because he knew that the previous holder of the ring, the legendary dragon king of Faerun, Ivyklathasagran "Sharptooth", died at the hands of the young man in front of him.
The other party definitely has more than a hundred ways to make you suffer.
Therefore, even if it is just to suffer less in the future, we must behave well.
"Lamp... lamp god?"
Hermione was completely stunned by the creature in front of her, who was wearing exquisite silk clothes, a large number of golden rings and gemstone jewelry all over his body, and whose lower body looked like a ball of burning embers and black smoke.
Because apart from the fact that the color is a little bit off, he looks almost the same as the genie in the cartoon.
Zuo Si corrected him with a smile, "No, he is not a djinn, but a creature from another world called a fire giant. But he is similar to the djinn in the fairy tale in one respect, that is, he can grant three wishes to creatures of other races except himself every day. You should have read about what the wishing spell is in the book, right?"
The girl nodded excitedly, "Yes, I've read about it. It's an extremely powerful magic that can theoretically do almost anything."
“Remember, there are two most important rules when using the Wishing Spell.
For example, a low-level wizard once made a wish that he wanted to become a great wizard. After the wish took effect, he found that his size had doubled, and he became a true "great" wizard.
For example, there was a guy who wished for immortality and that no one could ever kill him. As a result, he was thrown into a demiplane by the [Imprisonment Spell] and sealed permanently.
所以我现在给你几分钟时间,来思考自己想要什么,以及如何完成许愿的过程。”
为了让赫敏了解胡乱许愿可能造成的严重后果,左思举了两个非常具有代表性的生动例子。
不用问也知道,他想要借此机会来看看女孩现在的思想和精神状况。
要知道大多数人在许愿术的面前,是最容易暴露出内心之中真实的渴望。
像维尔梅斯,拿到许愿术后立马就举行拍卖会将其变现,抱着一大堆金币和宝石美滋滋的躺在上边睡觉。
组织里的巫妖们获得许愿术后,有的选择利用它来制作一些威力强大的魔法物品乃至神器,还有的则是获取一些不为人知的隐秘知识。
赫敏低着头沉思了良久,然后抬起头小心翼翼的试探道:“我可以通过许愿来让自己变得更聪明吗?”
左思立马回应道:“当然!不过我暂时不建议你这样做。
因为通过许愿获得额外的智力只能使用一次,并且每次许愿只能增加一点,但上限却是五点。
也就是说,如果你这次许愿让自己变得聪明,就会失去另外四次强化的机会。
我认为最好是凑齐五个许愿术之后一起使用,才能让你的智力获得最大提升。”
“那我可以把这次机会先攒下来么?”赫敏用不是很确定的语气问。
“没这个必要。你的大脑还在发育,远远没有达到极限。等时机到了,我自然会一次性给你五个许愿术。现在别想太多,就当这是个普通的小奖励。”
说罢,左思直截了当用另外一种语言对火巨灵下达命令:“把你今天的许愿能力给她一个。”
“如您所愿,伟大的主人。”
伴随着最后一个字脱口而出,火巨灵以极快速度完成了施法,让一团光幕笼罩在女孩身上。
感受到这股强大的魔法力量之后,赫敏迅速闭上眼睛低头用外人根本听不见的蚊子声许下了愿望。
眨眼功夫,光团化作星辰一样的光点四散飞溅,最终消失的无影无踪。
毫无疑问,这代表着许下的愿望已经被实现了。
可问题是,左思上看下看也没找到发生了什么变化,马上取消召唤好奇的问:“你刚许了什么愿望?”
“这是女孩子的秘密,你就别问了。”赫敏直截了当的拒绝道。
不知为何,她的脸色微微有些发红,眼神也在不停的闪烁彰显着主人此刻的心虚。
“好吧。既然是女孩的秘密,那我就不问了。”
左思无所谓的耸了耸肩膀,拉起少女的手挥施展传送魔法打算前往霍格沃茨。
他根本没注意到,就在魔法生效的刹那,女孩胸围的规模明显比之前大了一圈,将礼服长裙的上半部分整个撑起来变得紧绷。
由于使用的是传送魔法而非幻影移形,所以霍格沃茨的防护性魔法结界并不能起到任何阻挡效果,两人直接出现在了城堡门口的空地上。
看着周围那些纷纷投来或是惊讶和难以置信眼神的学生,左思立刻微微感叹道:“这里还真是一如既往的和平呢。”
“抱歉,我想我得先回宿舍换身衣服。”
赫敏迅速用手臂遮住胸口和侧面撕开的裙子,然后快步朝城堡内的方向跑去,眨眼功夫便没了踪影。
对于少女稍微有点不正常的反应左思并没有过多在意,而是轻车熟路的穿过复杂多变的走廊、楼梯来到校长室门口。
跟预料中一样,这里聚集了相当多的人。
包括之前参加婚礼的宾客,大量好奇心爆棚的学生,还有刚刚从魔法部那边赶过来的官员和傲罗,以及闻讯狂奔至此的各路媒体的记者。
要知道小天狼星布莱克可不是什么普通人。
光是一个二十八纯血家族最后继承人的身份,就能在英国魔法界掀起不小的风浪。
以前他自己不愿意澄清蒙受的冤屈,结果被误认为是背叛了朋友的食死徒,自然没有人愿意站出来为其说话。
可现在,布莱克愿意解除大脑封印术,接受吐真剂和记忆读取来证明自己的清白,那些原本跟布莱克家族交好的巫师肯定不会坐视他继续被带回阿兹卡班。
更何况眼下的魔法部长早已不是福吉,更不会有人愿意为了这个名声早就臭掉的老家伙去遮掩当年错误的判决。
事实上,乌姆里奇巴不得多挖出一些福吉的黑料,如此一来她就能证明自己反水并取而代之的正义性跟合法性。
不过很遗憾,眼下校长室的门还是关着的,所以外面的吃瓜群众们谁也不知道发生了什么,最终结果是否能证明布莱克的清白。
就在左思想要趁着周围其他人还没发现自己,直接变成灵体穿墙而过的时候,突然看到不远处的卢修斯正在用十分隐晦的动作冲自己招手。
他旁边还站着以杰玛·法利为首的几个即将毕业的斯莱特林学院学生。
出于好奇心的趋势,左思避开这些正在焦急等待结果的家伙,跟随对方走到一处没人的角落,随后用略带玩味的语气问:“你们有什么重要的事情吗?”
“我想要跟您谈谈关于英国魔法界的未来。”卢修斯小心翼翼的回应道。
“未来?”
左思把目光投向浑身上下散发着对自己狂热崇拜的杰玛·法利。
不光是她,另外几个人的反应也都差不多。
这些学姐和学长们有一个共同点,那就是他们都即将毕业,并且想要进入魔法部获取一个职位来实现自己的野心。
卢修斯认真的点了点头:“对,未来。相信您应该已经看到了,那颗能让人死而复生的魔法石拥有让巫师们无法抵挡的强大诱惑力。
即便是像乌姆里奇那样的蠢货,也能利用其牢牢的坐稳部长位子。
但问题是,无论她现在无论对你表现的如何顺从,终究只是个外人。
为什么不把她赶下去换成自己人呢?”
“你想当魔法部长?”
左思脸上露出了意外的表情。
因为在他的印象中,卢修斯一直都是个只敢在背后玩阴谋诡计的角色,除非受到胁迫,否则绝对不会轻易站到前台来。
“如果换成是以前,我肯定不会产生这样的妄想。
毕竟不管是邓布利多还是黑魔王,都根本不是我能应付得来的。
但现在不同了!
您不仅把黑魔王和他手下最凶恶的食死徒狠狠地踩在脚下,并且在实力和声望上也在超越邓布利多。
或者干脆点说,您亲手开启了一个全新的时代。
作为已经向您宣誓效忠的我,自然比乌姆里奇这样的外人更有资格掌握权力,以便为您提供更多、更好的服务。
等我从魔法部长的位子退下来,像杰玛·法利小姐这样的后起之秀就能顺理成章成为新的魔法部长。
到时候您甚至什么都不需要做,只要一句话就能轻松调动整个英国魔法界的所有资源和力量。
除此之外,我还可以通过跟欧洲其他国家一些古老家族的关系,拉拢一些人来为您效力,帮助他们在自己所在国家魔法部内担任要职。
用不了几年功夫,您说不定就会成为整个欧洲乃至全球魔法界的主人。”
卢修斯用充满煽动性的语气描绘了一幅自认为极具诱惑力的宏伟蓝图。
很显然,跟伏地魔那种靠着赤裸裸的暴力、杀戮和死亡来维系统治的方式,他无疑更喜欢现在这种悄无声息的利诱、收买和渗透。
因为但凡不是傻子都明白,像前者那种高压统治根本没办法持久。
暴力和恐惧本身必然会激发强烈的反抗,统治者想要消除反抗只能采用残酷、血腥的镇压,而镇压又会让更多无法忍受的人加入反抗行列,统治者唯有用更残酷、更血腥的手段再一次镇压。
如此反复N次之后,当最终连执行镇压任务的军队都开始受不了,统治自然也就会随之崩溃、瓦解。
尼可罗·马基亚维利在《君主论》一书中就明确阐述过,暴力手段是一名统治者必须掌握的力量。
但在使用它的时候必须先明确目标,并且执行起来一定要简短而有力。
当铲除威胁之后便要立刻让一切恢复原状,而不是一直挥舞着染血的剑去威胁恐吓所有人。
那样的话只会产生一个结果,那就是众叛亲离最终惨死。
看着卢修斯眼神中透露出来的野心,左思忍不住笑了,一边笑还一边说道:“知道吗?我们脚下这颗星球的陆地面积是大概一点五亿平方公里。
其中超过八成以上的地方都被那些巫师们看不起的麻瓜占据。
剩下还有很多是冰川、荒岛、沙漠等不适合生存居住的地方。
至于人口、资源和科技更是不用说,魔法界的巫师完全被麻瓜碾压,连给对方提鞋都不配。
所以在我看来,统治魔法界根本没有什么太大的吸引力,甚至可以说是极度无聊。
If you want to play, why not play something big? For example, secretly control the entire human society?"
moment!
Everyone present was stunned.
Lucius Malfoy, in particular, completely lost his so-called elegance and almost fell to the ground.
Gemma Farley and others had even more fanatical admiration in their eyes than before.
Compared with Zuo Si's proposal, Voldemort, who can only stay in the British wizarding world and make small moves without any vision at all, is simply a pile of dog shit.
I don't know how he managed to convince so many people to join the Death Eaters.
Conquer the world!
Take control of the world!
This is what an excellent "Snake King" with great aspirations and endless ambitions should do.
However, unlike this group of young people who were not deeply involved in the matter, Lucius was obviously very aware of how difficult it was to control such a huge human world with the power of wizards, so he hurriedly and cautiously asked: "If you don't mind, can you tell me your plan?"
"Relax, don't be so nervous, in fact, secretly controlling the world is not as difficult as you think, or it is unbelievably simple.
First, find the very few richest people in the world and let them know about the existence of magic.
Through transactions, give them some magic potions that can cure terminal illnesses, regenerate severed limbs, and prolong life, win their trust little by little, and show strength when necessary.
In this way, they will inevitably become dependent on these things and gradually become controlled puppets.
After all, who among the rich and powerful would not want to live a few more years or even decades in good health? Just look at how crazy the wizards are about the Philosopher's Stone and Magic Mercury, and you will know how far people can go in order to survive.
For those who are truly willing to surrender and offer their loyalty, they can even be allowed to take a special potion made with magic mercury to rejuvenate and always stay in the youngest and healthiest state to enjoy life.
Of course, if there are some foolish fools who want to use force to rob, then just use magic such as the Imperius Curse that can control the mind and will.
Secondly, they use the money in the hands of these extremely wealthy guys to build a huge network, directly bribe those experts and professors to frantically advocate the benefits of privatization and market competition, and then push politicians who are willing to implement these reforms after taking office.
With policy support, this huge capital network will be able to gradually erode important fields such as finance, transportation, mass media, transportation, energy, real estate, minerals, metal smelting, food, semiconductors, medical industry, etc., and eventually become the actual controller of most of the resources of this planet.
At this point, they have actually already controlled human society to some extent.
If we want, we can easily use the large amount of media we control to instill in the public what we want them to know, while blocking information we don't want them to know.
Because we control most of the world's energy, food and medicine, we can also plunge a region or even a country into a desperate situation where power outages, famine and vehicles cannot start without fuel.
Coupled with the lack of sufficient medicine, a minor flu can often lead to the deaths of thousands of people.
How about it, doesn’t it sound interesting?”
While saying this, Zuo Si's eyes were always fixed on Lucius, causing the latter tremendous psychological pressure that cannot be described in words.
At this moment, not only was his entire body soaked in sweat, but the ambition he had shown before also disappeared without a trace.
interesting?
Maybe it is really interesting for young people like Gemma Farley who know nothing, and they may even be eager to give it a try.
But Lucius didn't find it amusing at all.
Because he understood that the prerequisite for achieving all this was to first deal with wizards around the world so that they could no longer provide protection for important figures in the Muggle world of various countries.
So here comes the question.
How can we deal with so many wizards in the world in a short period of time? Of course, we should start a war that sweeps the entire wizarding world, and then kill all the wizards who oppose and refuse to obey, along with their families.
In such violent turmoil and chaos, no one can guarantee whether they can survive to the end.
In other words, the coldness, cruelty and tyranny revealed in the subtext of Zuo Si's words just now were far beyond those of Voldemort and Grindelwald. He was simply a complete madman.
Lucius wasn't sure whether this was the other party's real intention or whether he was warning him in this way.
Anyway, after struggling for a long time, he finally knelt on one knee like a defeated rooster and begged in a trembling voice: "I'm so sorry! It's all my fault! I shouldn't have such ambitions, and I shouldn't have instigated these Slytherin graduates. I swear on my life that such a situation will never happen again."
"Humph! What, are you scared now?
Without sufficient awareness, don't touch the power that you shouldn't touch, otherwise it will turn around and devour you.
Remember, this is the first time and the last time. Never, ever show off your cleverness in front of me, and don't try to stir up my ambitions and desires.
Because you simply can’t afford the cost.”
At this point, Zuo Si paused deliberately, turned around and glanced at Gemma Farley, who seemed to understand something and was trembling, and walked straight to the end and whispered in her ear: "I am very disappointed with your performance today."
Boom! Gemma Farley felt her head explode instantly, and her face turned pale.
"But I am a merciful master and will not punish you for making a mistake once. On the contrary, I will give you another chance. But if you disappoint me again, please disappear forever. Also, be more thoughtful next time and don't let others take advantage of you so easily."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Zuo Si walked towards the principal's office without looking back.
After his back completely disappeared, Lucius stood up from the ground tremblingly. He didn't dare to look at Gemma Farley, whose eyes were flashing with terrifying anger and murderous intent. He quickly fled Hogwarts as fast as he could, leaving only a few Slytherin graduates standing there, at a loss.
Although Zuo Si did not use the Cruciatus Curse to punish his subordinates who made mistakes like Voldemort, making them suffer indescribable pain, the enormous mental and psychological pressure he caused was far greater than that of the other party.
Just look at Gemma Farley, who is almost collapsed. If Zuo Si had said something like "Go and kill yourself", she would definitely cast a killing curse on herself without hesitation...
(End of this chapter)
