Update: When Felix returned to school, he took some time to find Warren, who was happily walking around - because the previous meeting was too serious, Felix left it at school. I haven't seen each other for a while, and Warren's temper is even wilder.
Felix asked in a tone of insider information: "I heard that there is a flying sniffler wandering around the Forbidden Forest recently?"
Valen shook his head again and again, saying that he had absolutely no idea what was going on. "Really?" It patted its chest and offered a serious suggestion to ask Hagrid, he might know.
"...There are many dangerous creatures in the Forbidden Forest," Felix warned it.
Warren waved his hands indifferently.
Felix followed its line of sight to see the small bell tied on its scarf, and reached out and fished it out—
"Confiscation - this is for your safety, not an adventure prop." Warren could only watch Felix's fingers flick, and the cute silver bell stretched out and turned into a silver bird.
This is a Patronus magic specially arranged by Felix. The Patronus is not the point, the point is that it contains some of the magic circuits of Mandrakes - if it is in danger, the Patronus can scream out a few unsuspecting wizards. This move also has an effect on mobs near the Forbidden Forest.
They walked towards the castle.
"You like the Forbidden Forest? I know of a few particularly delicious spices...Professor Sprout is well kept."
When Felix was awakened the next day by the tantalizing aroma of roasted pumpkin, he stood in front of the windowsill, feeling like he had passed away. The mountains in the distance are covered in silver, and the black lake at the foot of the mountain is covered with a thin layer of ice, just waiting for the arrival of a heavy snow.
He spent Halloween at school and took the time to re-acquaint himself with his students. It was strange that no one had separated him from the memory. Felix felt that he was much more serious and serious when he taught his students.
He even attended Slughorn's party with great interest, and Snape was still a stranger, but he quietly mentioned his 'tiny' gains in potions. Progress' - Felix refrained from asking about the specifics, so that the other party wouldn't be able to show off. Emmeline Vance, who was not interested in the food at the banquet, but had a soft spot for the classical music played at the party, asked the name of the Slughorn record, and Slughorn said lightly:
"You can't buy it anywhere else, it's from a Muggle store... yes, after special treatment, I have a bit of a relationship with the Muggle government... I can send you a set..."
After Halloween, Felix realized that he still had the Vice-Principal's name on his body, so he ran to Professor McGonagall to perform his duties - chatting with the Sorting Hat by the way, but unfortunately the dirty hat didn't appreciate it and kept going. The child yelled and listed Felix as the object of refusal to communicate. Felix was a little embarrassed. The relaxed days did not last long, and now is a critical period, so after a week, he returned to the Federation headquarters, like a large message transceiver, constantly receiving and sending various kinds of information, for a while in the hall of the Federation headquarters. There are more than a dozen different forms of patron saints at the same time.
The progress brought by the work in the past few days is very gratifying. Some countries with a relatively fast negotiation process have reached the final step, and the whole headquarters of the Federation is very excited. One morning, Agimbad came back from America with bad news.
"The situation is a little bad." He handed over a newspaper succinctly, and Felix took a look at it. The headline on the newspaper read "Auror Team Tragically Died" in bright red writing.
Putting down the newspaper, Arginbad briefly explained what happened. When a three-person Auror team was investigating the local government's secret control of the little wizard, an accident occurred and there were no survivors.
"Any army involved?" Felix asked in surprise.
"It's a spell caster, another group of spell casters," Agimbad said. "It happened last night. The other teams received the last signal. By the time they arrived, it was too late. This matter was kept in Parliament. The reporter saw..."
Half an hour later, Felix appeared at the Magical Congress of the United States - the Woolworth Building.
There were three corpses in front of him. The chairman of the Magical Congress of the United States, Horace Greensteen, the principal of the Ilvermorny School of Magic, the head of magic security, Yuria as his deputy, and several senior congressional officials were all present, and their faces were very ugly.
"Any clues now?"
"There may be other wizarding organizations involved," said Horace Greensteen sullenly. "I suspect it is the descendants of the Purifiers. I sent a large number of people around Halloween to monitor past suspicious people— It is completely feasible in theory, many wizards have purchasing plans during the festival, and I judge that some people will take this opportunity to fish in troubled waters..."
That was the plan he mentioned to Felix. But the plan was half successful, the Aurors did find the anomaly, but didn't come back alive to report the situation.
Felix was noncommittal about the speculation of the 'Purger'. The purgers have played the role of disgraceful wizard traitors in history, similar to the mercenaries who do things with money. The American wizards once talked about them and hated them. After the establishment of the Magical Congress of the United States, these people were immediately liquidated, and only a small number escaped punishment and hid in the crowd.
They were powerless to retaliate against the Congress, let alone use magic, so they even voluntarily abandoned children who were gifted with magic. From the point of view of subsequent development, these people did not choose to cooperate with the government for a long time-as they once used magic for money The fear and hatred of the Magic Congress have been passed down from generation to generation when their own countrymen sold out to the Puritans and the executioners of official extremist groups who knew all too well what they would suffer.
So the incident of twelve magically gifted children some time ago was really an accident. No, maybe not by accident. Felix suddenly thought, what if the last time was a temptation by some people? A test of wizards and public opinion? Assuming that those children are constantly being watched by a small group of people, and when the time is right, they will be transported to the sea base that cannot be plotted. They are a 'fixed share' every year, but they are used for other purposes this year...
Felix carefully examined the remains of the three victims, and after a while, he raised his head.
"I think these three Aurors have met the people we've been looking for, but those children are now grown up and become our enemies."
This is pretty much the worst case.
"Could it be that this secret plan has been going on for decades... But even so, they can't fight against formally trained Aurors, who have not even received a complete magical education." A bearded wizard at the scene - he's the head of magic security - exclaimed.
"It's because they haven't received a complete 'school education'." Felix corrected: "It is indeed difficult for them to accept orthodox magic teaching, but it does not mean that they have to **** from scratch. The easiest way...just get any wizard's advice. Trust, they can enter and leave the magic world at will, and easily buy published magic books, potion materials and second-hand wands in magic shops..."
"As for whether their real level exceeds that of the Aurors... I can't see it for the time being. There are many possibilities for the real experience. For example, these Aurors were careless, deceived, or really inferior to others, but one thing is Certainly...their opponents are not ordinary people, but highly trained and carefully nurtured professionals."
Felix's fingertips showed a vague figure, and he leaned in to examine the faceless face carefully, and said softly:
"The purpose of any magic school is not to train agents, assassins, or killers - we learn magic to better control magic power, and it is also the subconscious desire of the wizarding community to grow and at least avoid decline. It's working. So wizards moved from the earliest family education, mentoring education to school education, established a community, and derived many occupations that I think are optional, all for the purpose of better connecting people with each other. There is an intersection between them. But the secret opponents don’t think so, they just want to squeeze as much talent as possible in the short term.”
"You might as well try to outline the growth environment of those people. Ignoring those who died due to various accidents, they generally left their parents before the age of eleven, and they have been drifting at sea for several years, undergoing various experiments, brainwashing, and training... When it's a little older, it will come out to perform tasks, so what are those tasks?"
Horace Greensteen felt a shudder, his mind turned quickly, then suddenly turned his head to look at a person, and said urgently: "Uria, you immediately go to a common magic shop and ask those shopkeepers if they have received young wizards, What they have in common is that they have purchased various magic materials in bulk more than once, and—" He said a little sternly: "Investigate those wizards who live in isolation, and check whether someone has disappeared inexplicably in recent years?"
Yuria hurried away with a serious expression.
Several people present had different expressions, and they didn't speak for a long time. Finally, the headmaster of Ilvermorny School of Magic broke the silence: "Mr. Haipu, according to this situation, it is possible that the other party has trained a powerful enough spellcaster. ?"
Felix thought for a moment and denied this possibility.
"The overall quality of those people is almost at the level of a general excellent Auror, which is the limit, and they are only comparable in one aspect, there is no possibility to go further, let alone explore the true meaning of magic... As for the evidence, from the left Judging from the wound, they all have obvious black magic characteristics when they cast regular spells, which does not mean how advanced their magical attainments are, but a manifestation of the imbalance of magical power."
"It can also be concluded that no matter who the other party is, the time span they do this will not be too long, definitely not more than thirty years."
"Why do you say that?"
"—No matter how long it takes, these people will suffer backlash. You must know that the magic power of wizards is directly connected to the soul, and it will be directly reflected in the character..."
After a long silence.
"What's next?"
"The negotiation is going on as usual. I have a premonition that the next negotiation will not be too smooth. There is a deeply hidden force that will do everything possible to obstruct the conclusion of the contract... But someone jumped out on their own initiative, so that we can find the key person. In addition, I also Need to make a map."
...
The whole of November was spent in a disturbing atmosphere, and while more than a dozen Ministry of Magic and local governments around the world signed contracts recognizing the status of the Confederation and Union Charter, there were also many who made it public. Questioning the validity of this law, thinking that organizations like the International Federation of Wizards that are above the will of wizards and even governments of all countries are illegal and should be banned.
In particular, some of the above clauses are simply unbearable for consortia and governments in certain countries.
The delegation of the Magical Congress of the United States has conducted three rounds of negotiations with the local government. However, as the negotiations progressed, some issues of principle came to the fore, which became irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides, and the negotiations reached a deadlock again. Some hard-line voices appeared in the news media publicly: an unknown congressman from a remote state proposed to build a special school funded by the government to create and take over the magical world belonging to the Americans. This remark was immediately supported by the medical consortium and the arms consortium. Express your willingness to donate to this great cause.
But the next day, the congressman wept bitterly in front of reporters, telling the "evil crime" he had committed, which almost immediately became evidence of witches' demagogy, and a series of vicious incidents were later proved to be "indirectly" related to witches , the delegation of the Magic Congress negotiated for more than half a month, and found that the public opinion environment of the outside world had completely changed.
The coldness of the Magical Congress of the United States delegation, the boycott of the International Federation of Wizards, and the spread of public opinion around the world all lead to an outcome—and this is what many government think tanks have come to—a head-on conflict in Inevitably.
Even in a way, this is the result that everyone hopes for - provided that the conflict does not take place in their own country - for many people, it is incredible that the delay is so long that one can't help but suspect that it is magic effect.
A group of more than two million people hidden under the water, out of step with the world order, and possessing abilities that only exist in literary works and fairy tales... But so far, there has been no outbreak of a certain size. And the conflict of scale, as if everything was by design, which is so strange.
The shadow of war has never been far away. At the beginning, it wandered in the UK. As the situation in the UK stabilized, the eyes of various countries turned to Africa, which was the most chaotic. However, although Africa is chaotic~www.novelhall.com~Small conflicts have also occurred frequently, but never After getting out of control, some people waited, waited, and finally waited for the introduction of the "Federation and Union Charter", and then dozens of countries started negotiations at the same time. It's a miracle that things have developed to this stage.
But some things are unavoidable. Other means only play the role of delay and deterrence. They only happen on paper. Only a head-to-head contest can best reflect the strength of two different groups. Whether the wizards are vulnerable, or whether modern weapons are completely ineffective against magic, only when real swords and real guns are tried, will those darker and more restless minds sink back into the rotten silt, acquiescing to the birth of a new order.
What makes the think tanks of various countries diverge is when and where this conflict will break out, who will initiate it, and—how many people will be killed and injured in the end, and can it be controlled within a certain range?
The bad weather in November continued into early December, and with a group of people holding their breaths and looking forward to it, the time came to the last month of 1997. Finally, the President of the International Federation of Wizards Babajid Agimbad and the International Felix Hepp, the first president of the Pan-Magic Alliance, issued a solemn warning to all wizards.

No, maybe not by accident. Felix suddenly thought, what if the last time was a temptation by some people? A test of wizards and public opinion? Assuming that those children are constantly being watched by a small group of people, and when the time is right, they will be transported to the sea base that cannot be plotted. They are a 'fixed share' every year, but they are used for other purposes this year...Felix carefully examined the remains of the three victims, and after a while, he raised his head."I think these three Aurors have met the people we've been looking for, but those children are now grown up and become our enemies."This is pretty much the worst case."Could it be that this secret plan has been going on for decades... But even so, they can't fight against formally trained Aurors, who have not even received a complete magical education." A bearded wizard at the scene - he's the head of magic security - exclaimed."It's because they haven't received a complete 'school education'." Felix corrected: "It is indeed difficult for them to accept orthodox magic teaching, but it does not mean that they have to **** from scratch. The easiest way...just get any wizard's advice. Trust, they can enter and leave the magic world at will, and easily buy published magic books, potion materials and second-hand wands in magic shops...""As for whether their real level exceeds that of the Aurors... I can't see it for the time being. There are many possibilities for the real experience. For example, these Aurors were careless, deceived, or really inferior to others, but one thing is Certainly...their opponents are not ordinary people, but highly trained and carefully nurtured professionals."Felix's fingertips showed a vague figure, and he leaned in to examine the faceless face carefully, and said softly:"The purpose of any magic school is not to train agents, assassins, or killers - we learn magic to better control magic power, and it is also the subconscious desire of the wizarding community to grow and at least avoid decline. It's working. So wizards moved from the earliest family education, mentoring education to school education, established a community, and derived many occupations that I think are optional, all for the purpose of better connecting people with each other. There is an intersection between them. But the secret opponents don't think so, they just want to squeeze as much talent as possible in the short term."You might as well try to outline the growth environment of those people. Ignoring those who died due to various accidents, they generally left their parents before the age of eleven, and they have been drifting at sea for several years, undergoing various experiments, brainwashing, and training... When it's a little older, it will come out to perform tasks, so what are those tasks?"Horace Greensteen felt a shudder, his mind turned quickly, then suddenly turned his head to look at a person, and said urgently: "Uria, you immediately go to a common magic shop and ask those shopkeepers if they have received young wizards, What they have in common is that they have purchased various magic materials in bulk more than once, and" He said a little sternly: "Investigate those wizards who live in isolation, and check whether someone has disappeared inexplicably in recent years?"Yuria hurried away with a serious expression.Several people present had different expressions, and they didn't speak for a long time. Finally, the headmaster of Ilvermorny School of Magic broke the silence: "Mr. Haipu, according to this situation, it is possible that the other party has trained a powerful enough spellcaster. ?"Felix thought for a moment and denied this possibility."The overall quality of those people is almost at the level of a general excellent Auror, which is the limit, and they are only comparable in one aspect, there is no possibility to go further, let alone explore the true meaning of magic... As for the evidence, from the left Judging from the wound, they all have obvious black magic characteristics when they cast regular spells, which does not mean how advanced their magical attainments are, but a manifestation of the imbalance of magical power.""It can also be concluded that no matter who the other party is, the time span they do this will not be too long, definitely not more than thirty years.""Why do you say that?""No matter how long it takes, these people will suffer backlash. You must know that the magic power of wizards is directly connected to the soul, and it will be directly reflected in the character..."After a long silence."What's next?""The negotiation is going on as usual. I have a premonition that the next negotiation will not be too smooth. There is a deeply hidden force that will do everything possible to obstruct the conclusion of the contract... But someone jumped out on their own initiative, so that we can find the key person. In addition, I also Need to make a map."...The whole of November was spent in a disturbing atmosphere, and while more than a dozen Ministry of Magic and local governments around the world signed contracts recognizing the status of the Confederation and Union Charter, there were also many who made it public. Questioning the validity of this law, thinking that organizations like the International Federation of Wizards that are above the will of wizards and even governments of all countries are illegal and should be banned.In particular, some of the above clauses are simply unbearable for consortia and governments in certain countries.The delegation of the Magical Congress of the United States has conducted three rounds of negotiations with the local government. However, as the negotiations progressed, some issues of principle came to the fore, which became irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides, and the negotiations reached a deadlock again. Some hard-line voices appeared in the news media publicly: an unknown congressman from a remote state proposed to build a special school funded by the government to create and take over the magical world belonging to the Americans. This remark was immediately supported by the medical consortium and the arms consortium. Express your willingness to donate to this great cause.But the next day, the congressman wept bitterly in front of reporters, telling the "evil crime" he had committed, which almost immediately became evidence of witches' demagogy, and a series of vicious incidents were later proved to be "indirectly" related to witches , the delegation of the Magic Congress negotiated for more than half a month, and found that the public opinion environment of the outside world had completely changed.The coldness of the Magical Congress of the United States delegation, the boycott of the International Federation of Wizards, and the spread of public opinion around the world all lead to an outcomeand this is what many government think tanks have come toa head-on conflict in Inevitably.Even in a way, this is the result that everyone hopes for - provided that the conflict does not take place in their own country - for many people, it is incredible that the delay is so long that one can't help but suspect that it is magic effect.A group of more than two million people hidden under the water, out of step with the world order, and possessing abilities that only exist in literary works and fairy tales... But so far, there has been no outbreak of a certain size. And the conflict of scale, as if everything was by design, which is so strange.The shadow of war has never been far away. At the beginning, it wandered in the UK. As the situation in the UK stabilized, the eyes of various countries turned to Africa, which was the most chaotic. However, although Africa is chaotic~www.novelhall.com~Small conflicts have also occurred frequently, but never After getting out of control, some people waited, waited, and finally waited for the introduction of the "Federation and Union Charter", and then dozens of countries started negotiations at the same time. It's a miracle that things have developed to this stage.But some things are unavoidable. Other means only play the role of delay and deterrence. They only happen on paper. Only a head-to-head contest can best reflect the strength of two different groups. Whether the wizards are vulnerable, or whether modern weapons are completely ineffective against magic, only when real swords and real guns are tried, will those darker and more restless minds sink back into the rotten silt, acquiescing to the birth of a new order.What makes the think tanks of various countries diverge is when and where this conflict will break out, who will initiate it, andhow many people will be killed and injured in the end, and can it be controlled within a certain range?The bad weather in November continued into early December, and with a group of people holding their breaths and looking forward to it, the time came to the last month of 1997. Finally, the President of the International Federation of Wizards Babajid Agimbad and the International Felix Hepp, the first president of the Pan-Magic Alliance, issued a solemn warning to all wizards.One stone creates a thousand waves!7017k
