Chapter 2487 "That Way"
"Do you know? Ms. Kern was originally a witch who lived in the classical period. In that era, human beings still lived extremely hard."
"At that time, there were still many powerful and terrifying ancient magical creatures in this world. In order to survive, people in many places lived in battle almost every day. Harassment and threats from the demon kingdom, the catastrophe when the giant dragon crossed the border, the invasion of the army of ancient black magic creatures..."
"Is this disaster terrible today? Yes, of course it is terrible. But in fact, in that era, disasters like this happened almost every day!"
"Compared to those blessed magical creatures, the human race, which has only a very small number of individuals with magical talents, is really too weak."
In the main hall, Maca was standing in front of the high throne, talking to many familiar faces.
To be honest, for all the modern wizards here, the things about the ancient magic period that Maca said at this time are undoubtedly very attractive. Many of the details have long since been gradually lost over time, and even the most authoritative magical archeology experts today don't know about it.
In addition, everyone knows that Maca must have a purpose for suddenly talking about these things at this time. So everyone didn't show any impatience, just stood there, watched Maca's words, and gradually unfolded the picture scroll of the ancient magic era like an ancient epic in front of everyone.
"If Professor Binns is here, he will be very pleased, right?" In the crowd, Ron looked at the scene before him and couldn't help whispering.
At the same time, the ancient magic history lesson of Maca on the stairs is still going on——
"However! Our ancestors who bravely faced all kinds of difficulties and dangers in order to survive did not give up because of their own weakness. While struggling to survive, they were also trying to find the one that would allow themselves and their descendants to survive in this cruel world. The way to continue to survive in the world! They used their wisdom to challenge the major magic race forces at that time, struggling to breathe in the cracks; they learned the forging and alchemy skills of the goblin ancestors, and made magic wands and armor weapons for themselves; Every wizard in the world will spend their entire lives studying magic to defeat powerful enemies..."
"And the Ms. Kern I know is undoubtedly one of those great wizards known as the 'Patron Saint of Humanity' at that time."
Speaking of this, Maca paused for a moment, as if looking forward to the difficult but exciting age of ancient magic.
It should be said that the despicable Hai Erbo, the ancient black wizard, was also an ancient wizard, but the era in which he was active was actually approaching the end of the pioneering era.
And the witch Kern is the ancient wizard who has truly experienced the transformation from cruelty to glory...or more precisely, the wizard who is on the road to the rise of ancient human civilization.
"No," Maca, who quickly came to his senses, suddenly shook his head, and then he couldn't help sighing, "Ms. Kern's greatness was second to none even among those ancestors at that time. She is not just a magician. He is a genius, and he is a great man with both extraordinary foresight and grand vision! At that time, many people were still studying how to make human wizards use the newly developed magic wand to be comparable to other ancient magic creatures in casting magic. She already thought of a way to make the entire human race fundamentally equal... no, it's a way to surpass those magical creatures!"
At this point, there seemed to be a smile on Maka's already inhuman face. He suddenly took a step to the side, stretched out his hand and gently placed it on the shoulder of the zombie girl who had been standing to the side all the time, but his eyes were still on Hermione, Harry and everyone below.
"Look!" Maca said, "she, they...they are not human, they are still human. In these days, we called them 'living corpses', but now, I prefer to call them ——'New Humanity'!"
This time, even the eyes of those high-ranking living corpses standing behind the throne leaning against the wall gradually showed a deep sense of confusion.
new human? Is it really?
Or, can you really think so?
That's right, judging from the birth process of the living corpse, there may be nothing wrong with saying so. They all come from human beings, and with the help of Maca, they have acquired emotions and emotions, and have gradually become complete intelligent life one by one. Even though there is almost no resemblance to the original human beings in terms of physiology and psychology, their connection with human beings cannot be more closely related.
So, that is to say...
"Are we...human?"
If it were before today, the shoulder of this living corpse girl, one of the twins, would definitely be so excited secretly that she would not have the mind to think about anything else. However, at this moment, when faced with such a big problem involving the origin of the whole family, she couldn't even feel the weight of the big hand on her shoulder, and she fell into deep thinking among.
Similarly, all the wizards in the temple—whether they are Hogwarts people, John Stewart, or those family wizards belonging to the Blois family—all of them couldn’t help thinking about what Maca said. What does it mean for the entire human society?
At this moment, even Hermione, who was smart and astute, couldn't help being dazed after listening to Maca's analysis and interpretation of this disaster of living corpses, which was absolutely different.
Is this so-called "new human" argument justified? That makes sense, of course! Regardless of the pros and cons, the strength of the living zombies, especially those high-level zombies, is absolutely obvious to all. Even including those low-level zombies, compared to the ordinary Muggles who accounted for most of the vulnerable human beings, the superiority of the living zombies in terms of life form is beyond doubt.
Not to mention, living corpses are also a race with semi-immortal characteristics. This alone may drive countless religious people in this world who only want to pursue the illusory afterlife crazy...
However, when Hermione and the others were still hesitating between the countless pros and cons, and when Maca was still calm and waiting with a smile on her face, a light and clean voice suddenly sounded, interrupted most people's thoughts.
That was Luna who was also standing among the crowd in the center of the hall. She just looked at Maca on the steps and in front of the throne, blinking her big silver-gray eyes and said:
"Maka, have you found that way...?"
