Chapter 204 The Remnants of the Old Era Are Not Qualified to Board the Ship of the New Era

"The Resurrection Stone."

The man chuckled: "One of the three Deathly Hallows, it is said to have the ability to bring people back to life."

"I can see the pain and obsession in your heart, wizard, but the question is, why did you get him?"

coming!

Snape's heart trembled. He had already guessed that both the fortune teller Professor Tang and the person in front of him must have some purpose.

Knowing their purpose, he naturally also knew the relationship between them. Anyway, Snape would not believe that the mysterious person in front of him had no connection with Professor Tang. He was silent for a moment, followed the mysterious person's request, and said: " what do you want to do?"

But the man shook his head and said, "What do I want you to do? No, you misunderstood."

"You are not qualified to do anything for me, wizard. You are still standing in front of me, instead of-"

He snapped his fingers, and the bodies of the two wizards immediately burst into flames.

"Rather than being like them, it's because you have some value in my opinion, and I am willing to give you a chance to follow me."

"Follow you?" Snape's stiff face twitched. He wanted to sneer and use his best poisonous tongue to ridicule, but based on his current mission, he resisted this idea and said instead: "Who would follow a stranger?"

"It's a meaningless test." The man commented: "Why waste my time? You can just ask questions directly, who am I and what is my purpose. I will never hide this, and I am happy to let everyone know who I am. ,Understand me."

He opened his arms, made a strange gesture toward Snape, and said, "Let me introduce myself. You can call me Mr. Reid. Of course, I prefer another title——"

"magician."

Never heard of this name.

Snape looked at the other person, thinking constantly in his mind.

magician? Weird name, shouldn't it be a magician?

Before Snape could think any more, Mr. Reed continued: "As for my purpose, let me ask you a question first, Mr. Wizard."

"What do you think of humans?"

Snape was stunned for a moment: "Human? What do you mean?"

He reacted for a moment and then said: "Are you talking about Muggles?"

Mr. Reid looked at him meaningfully and said, "Muggle. That's right, I don't usually use such words."

"So, what's your answer?"

Snape frowned, not knowing what the other person's intention was in asking this question. He thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter what I think about it. Muggles have their own world, and wizards have their own world. They don't interfere with each other." , each independently.”

"Don't interfere with each other." Mr. Reid laughed, and Snape heard the irony in it, "The wizards I saw, I mean, almost all the wizards, seemed to think so. The worlds of Muggles and wizards are separate, and all wizards subconsciously believe that Muggles should not know about the existence of wizards."

"In order not to affect the normal order of Muggle society, of course wizards should not appear in front of Muggles." Snape followed the other party's topic and said matter-of-factly: "Otherwise, a dark wizard can bring order to Muggle society. Total paralysis.”

"The International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy." Mr. Reid said with some disappointment: "Let me tell you how I would evaluate your answer."

"Arrogance, stupidity, looking at the sky from a well."

"Let me tell you a joke." He tapped his cane and said: "There is a nest of poisonous snakes in the jungle. No creature in the jungle can survive their venom, so they think that they It is the most powerful existence in the jungle."

"They hide themselves in the canopy of trees and under dead leaves, restrain their aggression, and restrain themselves from harming the creatures in the jungle and disrupting the order of the jungle."

Snape's face was sullen. He could hear the ridicule in the other person's words, but he did not feel angry, but frightened.

As expected, the other party did not conceal his purpose as he described himself, and that purpose - Snape, as a former Death Eater and a person who experienced the period when Voldemort was wreaking havoc, could completely guess it.

This mysterious man who calls himself a magician is not satisfied with the order of the wizarding world and defies the international wizarding secrecy law.

Such a person, if he does not have power, will only become a despised madman. Azkaban is his final destination, but if he has power, and it is an extremely powerful power, then for the magic world, it may be A disaster.

Judging from Snape's current observations, the other party is probably the latter.

He did not act rashly. In fact, Snape did not have such a strong sense of justice, nor did he have a strong sense of belonging and honor for the magical world, so he said: "This metaphor is not appropriate. Venomous snakes are also dangerous when facing ferocious beasts. There are also natural enemies in the jungle, and a wizard who wants to control humans only needs a wave of his wand."

"You helped me finish the joke." Mr. Reid looked at Snape and laughed: "You see, that's exactly what the viper thought."

"It sits in a well and looks at the sky, thinking that the jungle is the whole world, but it doesn't know that the world is much bigger than it imagines, and it is also much more fragile than it imagines."

"Mr. Wizard, why do you think the International Wizarding Secrecy Law exists? Is it because the wizards who made this rule want to protect ordinary people?" Mr. Reid's smile faded as he spoke, and his eyes were full of ridicule.

"No, it is to protect myself, to make the world forget the existence of wizards, to prevent wizards from being tied to the gallows, and to prevent myself from being burned in the fire."

"From the beginning to the end, wizards are a minority and a disadvantaged group. Wizards have buried their heads in the sand for so long that they have even forgotten this."

Snape said coldly: "So, your purpose is to break the International Wizarding Secrecy Act? If that's the case, I'm afraid it wouldn't be wise for you to say it here."

Mr. Reid glanced at the alley casually. Because of the flames burning in the alley, several wizards gathered at the alley.

"Only the weak hide their thoughts." He said nonchalantly: "Since I'm here, I don't mind letting my name be spread across this land."

He raised his voice slightly: "I can see your eyes and what's in your heart."

"It's really disappointing."

"You think I came here to destroy, to bring disaster to wizards, and for some silly selfish desires."

"I don't blame you. The magical world has been ignorant for too long. You have been arrogant in the narrow and dark well for too long. You are immersed in your house-like games and cannot see the changes in the outside world at all."

"Someone needs to tell you all this. Someone needs to wake you up, even if only some of you, to get out of the well of arrogance and ignorance."

His eyes swept over Snape and the wizards watching at the alley.

“My purpose is not to destroy, but to save.”

"I will save you from the ultimate destruction of the magical world due to arrogance and ignorance. Believe me, this day will not be too far away,"

"The days of ease are over, and war will come. In this war, no wizard will be able to survive alone."

"I hope to prevent all this from happening and prevent the final destruction of the magical world caused by arrogance and ignorance. Of course, I know that not everyone is worthy of being saved. Some ignorance is so deep in the bones that it is hopeless."

"Those who acknowledge me will walk with me, and those who disapprove of me -"

He narrowed his eyes slightly:

"The scum of the old era are probably not qualified to board the ship of the new era."
