Chapter 1121 The Rise that Started at the Giggle Tavern (Sincere Thanks to the Lord Shangxian Qitian)
On the stage, Graves' sonorous and powerful voice and the content of his speech attracted many wizards who were drinking and talking in other seats to come over. Even the giant who could not speak human language very well was infected by the atmosphere, a little Straightening his body, he let his eyes easily pass over the wizards in front of him.
"We need to make the Magic Congress more active and stronger, just like the reason why Britain on the other side of the ocean can achieve this kind of development in a short period of time... a Congress with far-sightedness, a Congress with the courage to rely on itself to develop independently, a A parliament with the courage to stand against foreign enemies! This will lead us to further prosperity!" Graves looked at Chamberlain trying to speak again, he shook his head and asked, "Arthur, since the reform of Hogwarts began, in this Before the first Hogwart Academy ascended to the sky, many Ilvermorny people had already had the idea of transferring... They forgot the story of the founder of Isso Sur..."
"Stiff Fuji! I can't understand. Just because of these historical reasons, do you give up the opportunity to become stronger? Only when you fall behind can history repeat itself. Only when you are strong can you not be bullied arbitrarily!" Chamberlain stood up stubbornly and retorted , the chestnut hair standing on top of his head trembled a few times because of his excitement, "Those who are now planning to leave the United States and Ilvermorny are not traitors, they are also for the sake of making America strong again!"
"Yes! These talents are doing the facts, and they will introduce advanced technology back!"
"America is a free country! Wizards have the freedom to choose their own future!"
Graves clasped his hands in front of him, waited calmly for a long time after the yelling subsided, looked at Chamberlain and asked, "Arthur, can you tell me what your grades were when you graduated from Ilvermorny?"
"Except for No-Maj research, my grades are all excellent." Chamberlain said proudly. Such grades are completely achievable. Basically, most of the professions are open to him, and he can let him choose.
"Your stunning talents are enviable... I must first admit... In my heart, Ilvermorny, the world's best magic school, is now facing a difficult time..." Graves lowered his voice, "So Arthur, if a genius like you is willing to go to England, which has better educational resources, I have no objection. I support you enlightened wizards to learn more advanced magic skills for us... this path The situation you have to face is very difficult, because Harris has already stated in the live broadcast that they will not hand over this kind of creation technology that has an overwhelming advantage over other countries... Yes, the situation you have to face is very difficult... So we ordinary people shouldn't let you have to endure humiliation to go on this difficult road..."
Seeing that the representative of the radical faction seemed to give in to his achievements, Chamberlain's expression softened a bit: "Then Fuji, if you are, why are you trying to stop us?"
"Arthur, can you tell me..." Graves continued to ask calmly: "Can you tell me how many of the partners with you have the same achievements as you?"
"Uh... Although their written grades are not very good, in fact, they all have advantages in their respective fields." Chamberlain seemed a little embarrassed, even if Graves was not counted, the people who knew him and his friends well here Quite a few—his graduation grades for these crowds weren't great.
"Going to Hogwarts in England to study more advanced magic is certainly a good thing... the few elite wizards who have thoroughly studied our Ilvermorny magic should have higher and noble pursuits to learn those rarer magic arts ... so that the magic world can develop." Graves continued in a deep voice,
"But more wizards are confused by the magic wonders of other countries. When you haven't learned well in our own Ilvermorny, you want to go to those higher and obscure magic skills. , How much can you gain from it this time?"
This rhetorical question made those who yelled before very embarrassed, and realized the problem - ordinary magic is not well practiced, and they are still greedy for more esoteric knowledge.
"Gangdu Fuji seems to have a point..." Jessica muttered hesitantly, but she had lost the motivation to study at Hogwarts.
"Jessica, don't be fooled by the slogan language, the wizard of the Graves family has not told us what practical and substantive solutions he has. As an old The member of the Magic Congress was not stirred up too much, "Ian, your friend will be a very good politician, but you don't want to... eh? ian? "
Ian's expression at this time showed that he didn't pay attention to the conversation between his sister and Leonard at all, and he concentrated on the speech on the podium.
"The brain drain that Ilvermorny is going to face... No one cares, no one thinks that after we leave too many people... we can even meet, some people who are not determined, after seeing the advanced life at Hogwarts, may No longer wanting to return to live in America, we are dealing not only with passing talent, but with a population that represents future potential... Self-esteem is a weapon, the magic wand is used against the enemy. We also have magic, we have power, in us The potential is much greater than we imagined." Graves raised his arms gracefully, palms up, as if holding up hope invisibly, "Arthur, you just tried to ask me what the specific action plan is What? I'll tell you what I think now..."
Chamberlain, who gave a speech before Graves, leaned on the table with his arms clenched on his head. His head seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't lift his head at all. What Graves said was completely unrecognizable to him. I thought about it, if many wizards listened to my words and went to Hogwarts, but failed to achieve any progress and caused the population loss of the United States...
A young witch wearing a silk scarf looked at the wizards around her and noticed that many of them were nodding to varying degrees.
"The magic world does not need everyone to be a wizard who is good at studying magic, more ordinary people like us, but now the rapid development of the United Kingdom prevents us from standing still. We are already standing on the edge of the abyss. Therefore, the Graves family will serve as an example, and I will announce my family's secret magic skills. Not only that, but I will also call on other families. Like the prescient Alan Harris, encourage everyone to abandon conservative traditions and integrate the little learned knowledge that was previously hidden in our American wizarding world, and provide more. Not so genius, but also has goals A step closer to the growth of wizards!" Graves said in a deep tone, "Although we are proud, don't be arrogant, I hope that those wizards who are talented enough... Our Congress can elect those who are determined, give them support, support them Go abroad to learn advanced technology..." He clenched his fist with his right hand and his gaze was firm, "But we can still choose our proper posture. What we should never forget is the founding history of Ilvermorny, and we should not lose our own The spirit of the United States, the way of the rise of the United Kingdom... Regardless of the role played by the most powerful wizards in the world, the British system will never suit us... We choose our own path! That is the principle of freedom!"
At this time, no one was talking privately in the bar anymore. The wizards and other races all stood up, clapped and cheered vigorously. The effect of unstoppable giggles made the atmosphere of the scene a step further.
"Now in this crisis situation, the various factions in the United States should no longer be fighting each other. This will prevent us from making any progress. Therefore, I will work hard. Although my position is not high, I will work hard to change this! United has Power officials, make all decision-making actions more efficient and accountable to the President of Congress! If I fall, I will get up, and if I can't stand up, I hope you can stand up instead of me! But the United States does not It will fall, and it will rise again with our efforts!" Graves waved his right hand vigorously and patted his left chest, "America will surely rise!"
"America will rise!" "America will rise!" "America will rise!"
Most of the wizards and goblins in the bar imitated their slogans and started this action—Leonard worriedly found that his niece and nephew were among them, and so was Arthur Chamberlain.
