Hogwarts Card System

"Dear? Dear! Mr. Granger, take off those damn game glasses of yours, it's time for us to eat!" Mrs. Granger went crazy after calling for dinner twice but getting no response!

"Oh oh oh! Here you go, come right away! Hey, dear Monica, you will never imagine what I found? A big treasure chest! After dinner, I will show you around. It will definitely satisfy you. !" Mr. Granger quickly tried to make up for it.

After all, a wife cooking and playing games by herself is indeed hateful.

Mrs. Granger put her hands on her hips and said, "If you can't satisfy me, just eat starry sky pies for a week!"

"Wow~" Mr. Granger hoped that his wife was joking.

Ted has begun to try to let ordinary people enter the Utopia.

Although they have no magic power themselves, they can provide them with magic power, or build a leyline magic radiation tower nearby.

At present, there are still very few ordinary people who can enjoy the magical online world. Apart from key figures and relevant officials in various countries, the only ones are the Grangers.

Their existence will not be announced to other wizard players, and there are plenty of weird wizards out there anyway.

When they first entered this magical virtual world, they were all confused and acted like savages isolated from the world.

Ted's ambition is very big. If he only has one million wizards and other magical races, the upper limit is very low.

But if you include these six billion ordinary people, the potential is endless!

It's just that it's very difficult, but you can try it step by step.

The previous practice of isolating magic from the ordinary world is almost unsustainable. There is also ongoing debate within the International Federation of Wizards over whether the Statute of Secrecy should continue.

All kinds of chaos are happening frequently in the magical world, and the Ministry of Magic in various countries is already overwhelmed.

Especially in the first half of this year, the goblin rebellion crippled the British Ministry of Magic, resulting in insufficient manpower to maintain the status quo.

Many British gentlemen took to the streets directly and began to protest against the increasing number of strange things. They condemned the officials who clearly knew what was going on but did nothing and failed to disclose the information.

Ordinary people are angry!

If the old lady wearing the crown wasn't quite prestigious, something big might have happened.

But even if it is suppressed this time, it will still be visible to the naked eye next time and the next time.

Now Southeast Asia is no longer pretending, after all, the official institutions are about to be destroyed. All kinds of supplies are in short supply, and safety issues cannot be guaranteed. It’s almost time for humans and magical creatures to coexist.

Many people have even begun to tame dinosaurs...fuck! What an unexpected development. Go straight to Ark Evolution!

It's the same story over there in the United States, where superheroes and super criminals fight in the streets every day.

For example, in Los Santos, there were more than a dozen super fights witnessed in one day!

These little troublemakers can easily damage cars and other things, and many pedestrians suffer as well. But they still like to watch the fun and cheer. If one party is unhappy, just give them a break!

There are also those who play big, claiming to destroy a city at every turn. The prices are going crazy!

There are also those frequent large-scale events!

The kind that made Dumbledore unable to escape would be a world-wide disaster.

According to incomplete statistics, the wizards killed hundreds of thousands of strong and weak monster insects in several kilometers of mountain streams in the Alps!

If these things were not blocked and poured into the world continuously, they would be much more harmful than those dinosaurs.

Therefore, the artificially created barriers between the magical world and the ordinary world will inevitably be broken down.

It can even be said that the convergence of both sides is inevitable.

This is the inevitable result of human beings, and even all intelligent life in this world, staying together for warmth.

Therefore, Ted is now trying to guide ordinary people to accept the magical world, and let wizards and ordinary people get used to the game first.

…

The dinner was very sumptuous.

Although the British cookbook is thinner than most people's family trees, Mrs. Granger got many amazing cooking recipes from Ted that ordinary people can do!

This made her a celebrity in the neighborhood, even more famous than her dentistry had ever been—among other ladies.

However, the couple were in a hurry to finish the meal and open the big treasure chest, so only Ted and Hermione ate with gusto, and both of them had big appetites.

The couple didn't think there was anything wrong with Ted's large appetite. But Hermione's appetite also increased, which surprised them.

Couple: Fruits in the magical world nourish people!

Ted: That’s a loss for me and a gain for her!

The Grangers took a few bites and then left the table - they were going to play games.

No one can refuse a new world, especially a world full of possibilities and endless imagination.

The two have become a bit obsessed with "The Wizarding World" recently.

Mr. Granger, who is 1.85 meters tall, chose a dwarf character who is 80 centimeters tall and vowed to become a smart magic thief.

Mrs. Granger, who is graceful and wise in life, may be tired of her daily image, so she chose a female barbarian, just over two meters tall! Carrying a chariot-axe on his back, two throwing axes hanging from his waist, and sitting on his shoulders was Mr. Granger!

The general battle process is to throw the throwing ax first, then throw Mr. Granger, and then go up and chop everything that moves!

Mr. Granger basically hides under his wife's legs and outputs.

…

After the two of them finished eating, Ted sat on the sofa and watched TV.

Speaking of which, this TV show is not too big a deal to watch. For the sake of ratings, many hosts and photographers directly started broadcasting the adventure live!

These are the places where strange things are said to happen.

Generally speaking, they are constructed scenes and scripts, focusing on an entertainment variety show.

But there are also iron-headed children and green-headed men with tough heads. They really go to those places!

Yesterday, Ted and Ted watched a live broadcast of a real person exploring the Goblin Lake outside the city!

Halfway through the broadcast, the scene suddenly went out of control, and the male photographer was kidnapped by something. The female host was left screaming at the top of her lungs.

However, the photographer was rescued a few hours later by the local special department, a combination of special forces and wizards.

It is said that the photographer after the rescue was still very dissatisfied, saying that he had had a beautiful dream and did not want to wake up! Shouting to go back!

Photographer: "Do you know? That kind of bliss on earth ~ you don't understand, you don't understand! I want to go back, my fairy!"

It feels like Fan Jin passed the exam~

Therefore, the staff just said: "Look at what you are like! It has only been eight hours and you are as thin as a refugee. Go back? You won't survive tomorrow if you go back! Don't you know how much you weigh?" ? See if your little matchstick can still be used?"

When he was arrested before, it was live broadcast. At least thousands of families saw the process, and there were already many similar things. If you say you don't believe it, you are definitely pretending.

In short, many people already know that the world is a bit weird now, but what can you do?

After all, the boss is still willing to act now. If he really doesn't want to act, don't you have to hold on?

Let's do this first. It's a bit like knowing that a country far away is at war. Although you think about it in your heart and talk about it in your mouth, you still have to live the same life.

The two watched TV for a while and then went back to the house - two houses!

I still have to pack my things, I’m going on a trip tomorrow.

Originally, Hogwarts had a graduation trip to increase their knowledge and hone themselves.

But few people did it a few decades ago.

Ted and Hermione plan to go out for a walk. After all, there is no telling what the situation will be like when they graduate.

Ted plans to make himself a wand, but the material is a problem.

None of what they could get was satisfactory, so this time they went to the three major magic material distribution centers in the world.

…

Before leaving the next day, Mrs. Granger called Hermione into the house for a heart-to-heart talk between mother and daughter.

"My baby, mom is very happy that you can find your own happiness. But your dad and I didn't expect to see you leave so soon."

"Mom~ I'm not getting married!"

"That's almost it."

"Mom~ we will be back in two or three weeks."

"Well, but there's one thing I have to remind you. I don't want to have a grandson before you graduate..."

"……knew!"

The three largest magic material markets in the world are the witchcraft market in Sonora, North America, the sacrifice market in Togo, a West African country, and the magic bazaar on Pudong Island in the country.

Among them, the Sacrifice Market in Africa is recognized as the largest magic material market in the world, happening once a week. It is full of primitive witchcraft, magic items, magic materials from all over the world, and unknown strange things.

Almost all magical materials in the world can be purchased here.

This is also the closest to Ted and the others, so go here first.

If you go to Africa, you'll be on Grindelwald's territory.

I have to say that Professor Geller is really quite capable, and he is particularly good at governance and humanities.

It has only been two or three months since he basically took over Africa, but he has already sorted out the magical world here several times.

As I said before, Africa is the continent with the most wizards in the world.

However, because the wizards here are too primitive, as well as due to tribal and national reasons, they hate each other and are a chaotic group.

There are even students in the African magic school Wagado who have feuds with each other!

In this case, Grindelwald used his own strength and personal charm to mediate and resolve the situation in various ways, or simply killed one of the parties and settled the matter on the whole!

I am Cao~

When Ted came here and heard about his deeds, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up. You are really cruel!

Could it be that you are Hannibal instead of Grindelwald?

how to say? He is the kind of person who is upright and open-minded, but will never give him a way out once he kills someone, and has extremely high prestige.

Originally, he only had a hundred or so saints who were in their 70s and 80s, but now his age structure is very healthy.

It is said that there are more than 600 wizards under his direct subordinates, and all of them are good players.

There are three times as many wizards belonging to the institutions under his name.

In addition, Wagadu School is under his rule, and those graduating students will exert influence when they return to their tribes and countries, further laying a solid foundation.

Why do you think that in terms of ability in this aspect, Grindelwald is much better than Lao Deng! Not to mention the broken jar Voldemort!

Grindelwald welcomed Ted's arrival and received him personally.

Professor Geller has always admired Ted, especially his creativity and changes to the magical world.

"I've heard about the goblins. It's not a big deal. Although I think they should all be eliminated, your approach also makes sense. Those are all trivial matters..."

"What I really feel about is Utopia. To tell you the truth, I and many of my people have also thought about similar things, but no matter what, we always miss the point. The things we make cannot even realize basic functions."

Ted: That's right. After all, the core of Utopia is psychic abilities. Without this core, no matter how elaborate the outer edges you use magic to weave, it won't work.

It's like a game engine. Without an engine, what's the use of optimizing the code? (That should be it, right? I guess)

"So, you are here at the right time. I would like to ask you to set up the Leyline Magic Network in Africa to cover the entire Africa!"

It has to be said that Professor Geller is really grand. After all, this Utopia thing is all under Ted's control.

To cover the entire Africa, the consumption is not a small amount, and I have no control over it. But that’s what Grindelwald asked for!

Ted replied politely: "Of course, no problem. The professor thinks highly of me, so let's get started~"

Don't take advantage of the bastard.

Professor Geller has a big plan. In order to change the magical world, he doesn't care about consumption or who is in control. He just wants results.

Professor Geller is not very optimistic about Ted going to the sacrifice market.

"You want to make your own wand, right? I'm afraid the gift market won't satisfy you. Although there are many and miscellaneous things there, there aren't many that can really be called high-end. Especially if you want to make something comparable to the old wand." A wand of that level is bound to be disappointing.”

Ted laughed dryly: "Professor, you are kidding me. How can I make the Elder Wand?"

Well, Professor Geller guessed it this time.

Ted planned to make a new wand because the cedar phoenix feather wand he had could no longer help him.

Although it can’t be compared to the Elder Wand, it can’t be too different, right? !

Although Grindelwald said so, but since he is here, he must go and take a look, right?

Today, Saturday, happens to be the day when the market opens.

If you want to participate in the market, you have to spend 1 silver coin to buy a magic ticket, otherwise you will not be able to enter.

It is estimated that half of the 1 silver coin will have to be paid to Grindelwald's official department.

Passing through a door made of strange logs, the magic tickets in their hands flashed slightly, and Ted and Hermione came to another place.

The ticket is also clever, like a one-time door key, and can only be used in this original wooden door.

As soon as we entered the market, we were immediately buzzing with people.

Moreover, wizards are used to being casual, so how can they have the concept of a stall? Some people just lay a magic carpet on the ground and set it up in the middle of the avenue!

The entire market is like an open space under a cliff, with no roads. Those who can walk are the way. There are a lot of things here and there.

Fortunately, there are wizards who make a living from this and are more particular. They may also be aware of the cluster effect, and they all sell the same category together.

For example, those who sell ores, colorful metal ores, various rough gemstones, and some associated magic mineral veins are all piled together.

These businessmen looked professional at first glance, and they all set up a small tent.

A tent in the magic world might be 2,000 square meters if you get into it!

There are also people selling live animals, all kinds of strange magical animals, making noises, many of them smelling strange, what a scene! The chicken is flying and the dog is jumping!

There were even some things that no one had seen before, and a crowd of people gathered around to watch.

The languages ​​spoken by people are also diverse. However, this is not a problem for Ted and Hermione. They are both "fluent in languages", and listening, speaking, reading and writing are not a problem.

Eighty percent of the entire African magic world's business is done here. There were at least two to three thousand people setting up stalls and hanging out!

It took Ted and Hermione a long time to get used to it before they got over it. Where else could they see this scene in the wizarding world except in Muggle society.

The things sold here are quite decent, including dried cockscomb vipers, ghost-faced baboon skulls, some weird wooden carved heads covered with nails, and many things that look like black magic items...

No wonder it’s called the Sacrifice Market. Sure enough, in black Africa, black magic is also very tolerant.

But as Grindelwald said, there is nothing too advanced.

Ted spent two hundred galleons to buy several kinds of raw gemstones and an associated mithril mine, which was a small fortune.

The main thing is that the gem itself is part of the price, and the cutting is also part of the price.

This is especially true for mithril associated mines. Refining this requires extremely high alchemy skills.

If others buy it, they will really lose money.

But what Ted imagined, at least the purple quality material, was not seen.

There are some red ones, but they are all weird.

Some things are not from this world at first glance. Although there are violent fluctuations in magic power, no one dares to buy them.

Do you know if these things are dangerous?

For example, there is a weird magical dagger that is one foot long and as long as a snake.

No one dares to touch this thing when it is placed on the stall, because it will come to life and bite people. If it bites, it will sign a magic contract. If it cannot be completed, the consequences will be very disastrous.

There is also a wizard who sells an iron needle, which is as thick as a finger, a foot long, and dark.

This thing actually needs fresh white bones as material to nourish!

If any stupid young man accidentally stabs himself, the bone will probably be taken away.

Such underworld stuff is everywhere!

After walking around twice, I picked up a few things and saw a lot of voodoo materials that are unique to Africa. They are very cruel, and there are even materials made from the human body!

But no one can make a wand.

But after returning, Grindelwald gave him good news.

There is an elder beholder over there in Angola...
