Chapter 247 True and False Prophet
"Grindelwald?"
"Wait a minute. This name sounds familiar. I think I've heard it somewhere?"
Time will erase a lot of things. Almost no one here has experienced the era when Grindelwald was at the height of his power. This name has been locked in Nurmengard for too long. It has been so long that there are only a few people talking about him. .
But what he did can never be forgotten. In almost a short period of time, people will associate this name with the one who almost ruled the entire European magic world, almost destroying Paris with the power of a spell, and almost destroying Paris with the power of a spell. The man who overturned the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy was connected.
Especially the pure-blood wizards standing on the right, they are no strangers to Grindelwald, and even their fathers were once followers of Grindelwald.
Then the exclamations began to stir, and the wizards looked at the old man with short white hair and an old and thin appearance on the high platform in disbelief.
"Really Grindelwald?"
"I thought he was dead a long time ago. How is this possible?"
A rather young wizard loudly said: "That Grindelwald who was defeated by Minister Dumbledore? I heard that he was an ambitious dark wizard. Maybe he was really powerful back then, but even so, people like you are not qualified to go." Comment on Professor Tang’s prediction!”
As soon as these words came out, someone immediately retorted and ridiculed: "Ignorance, didn't you take a modern history of magic class when you were at Hogwarts?"
"Gellert Grindelwald is a prophet! He is one of the most powerful prophets in modern times!"
The young wizard suddenly became speechless. He opened his mouth and said stubbornly: "I have never heard of him making any predictions!"
"Grindelwald predicted World War II and the invention of nuclear weapons. This is why he originally advocated abolishing the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy." An older-looking pure-blood wizard said loudly:
"What the magician you support wants to do, Grindelwald has tried decades ago, and has even come close to succeeding - if you want to say that Grindelwald is a dark wizard, then what kind of magician is it?" ?”
"Magicians are different!" Someone from the left camp immediately retorted loudly: "Grindelwald wants to enslave Muggles. His goal has been evil from the beginning to the end, but what the magician wants is a better civilization. How dare you compare a loser like Grindelwald to a magician?"
"Moreover, even if he has the ability to predict, it cannot prove that Professor Tang's prediction is wrong. Grindelwald is a criminal. Who can believe what he says! He just wants to revive his ambition by slandering Professor Tang!"
"madness!"
"Shut up! Mudblood!"
"."
The hall was like a pot exploding, filled with chaotic quarrels. Grindelwald stood on the high platform and did not interrupt. He just gently took out the wand in his hand and waved it in the air like a baton. Cross a straight line.
Then, blue flames rose from around him and turned into several huge blue dragons, hovering in the entire hall.
The magical beings created by the Fire Spell exuded a frightening aura, and all sounds were stopped in an instant.
"Gellert!" Dumbledore's eyes widened, "What are you going to do?"
Grindelwald did not look back, but just said: "Albus, words alone cannot convince others. You must know that sometimes power is the root of everything."
"Albus, I know how to handle this situation better than you do."
His figure was dyed blue with the color of the flames, and amidst such a grand spell, his voice spread throughout the hall.
"For a more brilliant civilization."
He softly and slowly recited the magician's slogan.
"What a lofty ideal, you can't understand how excited I was when I heard these ideas not long ago."
"My whole life, I have been working hard to allow wizards to appear in this world openly. Throughout my life, I have been working hard to find the truth and freedom that belong to wizards."
"I once tried to achieve all this through violent means, but in today's era, my ideas can no longer be realized. We missed the opportunity."
"Those ordinary people, those Muggles, they also have joys, sorrows and joys. Apart from magic, they are no different from us. They also long for freedom, and their power has become stronger -"
"It is no longer an era when wizards can easily enslave them, but an era when wizards need to find ways to avoid being enslaved by them."
"Through the cultural invasion of the Muggles, the existence of wizards is revealed step by step, and finally the entire magical world and the Muggle world are integrated to form a brand new civilization that integrates magic and technology - I have to say , this is a brilliant idea.”
"The magician's ideas are more suitable for this era than mine, and they are more feasible."
Everyone showed doubtful expressions.
They were a little confused for a moment. Didn't Grindelwald just stand up against the magician and refute Professor Tang's prophecy? Why are his words at this moment more like a fanatical magician supporter?
Only Tang Sen frowned slightly, but he did not interrupt the other party.
"As you have heard." Grindelwald continued: "I fully support the magician's ideas and am willing to spare no effort to fight for the future he describes."
"but--"
He paused and turned to look at the magician.
"I do not support magicians, and I will not support an ambitious person with ulterior motives."
"Those prophecies are false."
Grindelwald's voice rose.
"Everything he said was a lie!"
"The magician I saw was a Dark Lord through and through. He never thought about achieving anything. All he wanted was to rule the magic world, and when he achieved all this, he would completely tear it apart. Your own mask.”
"Yes, I saw that scene."
Grindelwald raised his wand and pointed it at the magician.
"I saw the magician standing on a high platform, and I saw him announcing in front of the wizards who supported him all over the world that there is no more brilliant civilization."
"He deceived everyone, he turned his back on everyone."
There was silence in the hall.
Tang Sen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Things got interesting. In fact, this scene was the final core of his plan.
Grindelwald is indeed a true prophet. He did see some pictures of the future and directly pointed out his plans.
But so what?
Townsend chuckled, breaking the silence. This chuckle also attracted Grindelwald's attention, and he turned his eyes.
"Mr. Grindelwald, do you want to hear what you are saying?"
The fierce jumping prophet said with a smile.
"You mean, when the magician successfully unified the magic world all over the world, when wizards all over the world recognized his ideas, he suddenly abandoned his own ideas? Suddenly announced that he was in front of everyone Don’t you want a more brilliant civilization at all?”
"You mean, the magician managed to accomplish all this, but at the moment of success, he personally ruined it and made himself the enemy of all wizards in the world?"
"Then why would he do this?"
Tang Sen mocked:
"Is it because he wants to cooperate with this stupid prophecy you made today?"
