Hogwarts: Please graduate soon
Chapter 471
Wayne told Newt about his plan.
Researching drugs that can increase the fertility of magical animals and humanoid magical creatures such as centaurs is just a side job. His real purpose is to research potions that can increase the fertility of wizards.
"Why?" Newt still didn't understand. He was almost asking a hundred thousand questions today, and he couldn't figure out Wayne's purpose at all.
"Senior, don't you find that the number of wizards is too small?"
"Small? How can it be small? It has always been this size. I don't think there is anything wrong with it."
Newt's words made Wayne's fists clench unconsciously. There was nothing wrong with what he said, but it sounded so annoying.
"Think about it carefully..." Wayne sighed weakly: "A few hundred years ago, the population of the British wizarding world was about the same as it is now. A thousand years ago, it was smaller, but that was because there was no Hogwarts, and many Muggle-born wizards were not counted."
"But it's almost the 21st century, and the total wizard population has not changed at all."
Seeing that Newt still didn't understand, Wayne listed a set of data.
"In the 10th century, the population of Britain was about 3 million."
"In the 13th century, it became 7 million."
"By the end of the 19th century, this number had become more than 30 million, and now it is close to 70 million. Haven't you noticed anything?"
Newt was shocked, and his doubts just now suddenly became clear: "Yes, the Muggle population is increasing, and the number of little wizards born in Muggle families should also increase, but why
."
"The number of Muggle-born wizards is indeed increasing, but the speed is not as fast as expected."
Wayne shook his head slightly: "But the more critical issue... is the extinction of pure-blood wizards."
"I have checked many ancient books and consulted Nico. There were more than 28 pure-blood families, but almost all of them disappeared in the long river of history..."
The more Newt listened, the more frightened he became, and cold sweat broke out.
No one has ever considered this issue. Just like him, he thinks it is normal for the wizarding world's population to remain at the current level.
He even thinks it is reasonable to reduce it a little. After all, Grindelwald killed many people back then, and many countries have not recovered yet.
"Pure-blood family... I don't find any problem."
Newt thought carefully, "Look at the Weasley family, there are seven children."
"This is just an example." The two had already entered the castle. In order to prevent students from hearing their conversation, Wayne blocked the sound of the conversation.
"Take your family as an example. There is an older brother in your generation, so there are two brothers, but the eldest nephew is an only child. Rolf's generation has not seen him have a younger brother or sister for so many years. It can't be the eldest nephew, right?"
He calls Newt senior and his son the eldest nephew, there is nothing wrong with that.
"Think about the families you know, is it the same situation?"
"Stop talking." Newt smiled bitterly, "If you keep talking, I feel... wizards are going extinct."
"That's not the case." Wayne also smiled, "The number of wizards has increased in the past two years. Look at the third-year students. There are a lot more of us."
Newt nodded involuntarily, "That's true, but why do you suddenly consider the total population of wizards?"
"There are too few people." Wayne sighed.
As he and Tom once said, if wizards died out, how could he be the Dark Lord?
Only when society prospers and the number of wizards increases, will his power be increased accordingly.
Otherwise, even if he is now at the top of the British wizarding world, there are only tens of thousands of wizards in total, which sounds unintimidating.
Newt didn't know Wayne's little tricks in his mind. He only cared about how the potion research was going.
"It shouldn't work yet." Wayne shook his head slightly, "The potion for the centaurs is also for experimental purposes. The bodies of wizards are more complicated than those of centaurs. Let's see the effects of their use first."
"Don't worry. With your talent and level, success is a matter of time."
Newt patted the boy's shoulder to comfort him, but soon changed the subject, "If it succeeds, remember to give me a few bottles."
Wayne immediately showed a mischievous smile, "Senior, are you planning to give Rolf a little uncle?"
"Ahem!"
Newt was choked by his own saliva and pushed him away unhappily, "What are you thinking about? I prepared this for Leipzig. Now that you said that, I realized that it's time for him to expand the Scamander family."
"Oh."
Wayne was a little disappointed. He thought Newt was in love.
Seeing that he looked like he hadn't gotten anything, Newt felt embarrassed to stay with this brat, so he left in a hurry.
It seems that it's not impossible to make a little uncle for Rolf?
After saying goodbye to Newt, Wayne didn't have anything to deal with in the afternoon.
After writing a letter to the Ministry of Magic about Umbridge's situation, he went to find Hermione.
The two came to a nearby Muggle town, and while shopping and relaxing, they also bought some notebooks, candies and other small gifts to give out as Christmas gifts.
While shopping in the afternoon, Wayne found that his eyelids were twitching all the time, and there was a strange feeling lingering in his heart.
When it was time for dinner in the evening, this feeling was even more serious.
So he found an excuse to send Hermione back to the Gryffindor lounge, and then hurried back to the small world in the suitcase to start deducing.
After almost an hour of tossing, he finally got the result, and his expression was slightly surprised.
"Is this... can't stand the loneliness?"
Nurmengarde.
Grindelwald is a man who sees things through to the end.
He remembered the time he was imprisoned here, which was 7:07 that evening.
So if he wants to get out, he should also leave at this time.=|
The original Squib guard had already been driven to another place by him with the Confusion Charm, which was considered to have spared his life.
It was seven o'clock, and Grindelwald left the tower.
The worn prison uniform had been turned into a black double-breasted windbreaker, and the messy white hair had been cut short, a little messy, but it also revealed the owner's flamboyant and unruly character.
Looking up at this building that he built and used to imprison him, Grindelwald still felt a little subtle.
Once upon a time, he thought he would die alone here, and maybe he could compete with Dumbledore to see who could live longer.
But now it seems that the outside world is more interesting.
It was exactly seven o'clock.
Grindelwald waved his wand, and the earth trembled rumblingly, and the black tower kept shaking, shaking off large pieces of dust.
A strong wind suddenly erupted with Grindelwald as the center, sending dust into the sky again.
"The earth is shaking."
A few words were uttered gently, and the shaking became more violent, the tower collapsed, and the barrier was broken.
With just one spell, the defense measures built by the Ministry of Magic of dozens of countries disappeared.
In order to show his new life and to say goodbye to the cage, Grindelwald chose to use destruction to bury his residence.
A huge fireball rose into the sky and exploded into a huge firework with a diameter of hundreds of meters, making a weak whine.
This is the last thing this barrier can do for the magic world-tell everyone that Grindelwald is out!
Looking at the falling fire meteor in the sky, Grindelwald chuckled, twisted his body, and left Nurmengard through Apparition.
At the moment when the barrier was attacked, a wall clock with a very similar shape in the Ministry of Magic of dozens of countries vibrated violently at almost the same time, making a harsh buzzing sound.
When the young staff on duty first heard the bell, they were all confused. After a brief moment of shock, some older people suddenly thought of something, their faces turned pale, and their bodies kept shaking.
"Quick! Call the Minister and the Auror Captain over! Quick!" (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"What happened?" the young wizard asked curiously.
"Put away your damn curiosity! Do what I say!" The old man roared hysterically.
And because Nurmengard was in Austria, the first batch of Aurors arrived at the scene not long after Grindelwald left because they had the task of guarding the tower.
They saw the broken barrier, the tower like broken walls, and the mountain that had collapsed in half.
But the only thing was that he didn't see the people who were supposed to be locked up here.
"Clear the debris! See if there are any bodies!" The leader shouted, swooped down on his broom, and began to use magic to push away the fallen rocks.
He still held a glimmer of hope that this was a natural disaster.And the Dark Lord has unfortunately fallen.
With the concerted efforts of more than a dozen Aurors, it didn't take much time to explore this place, and finally they could only reluctantly accept the reality - Grindelwald really escaped!
Compared to the British who had no idea what kind of existence Grindelwald was, these Aurors almost grew up listening to the stories of Grindelwald told by their ancestors.
Some of them are descendants of saints, but more... are still the people who rebelled back then.
Everyone's face turned pale, and when they looked at their companions, they could see the panic and confusion in their eyes.
The Aurors never dreamed that Grindelwald had escaped from prison!
"Captain, what should we do now?" An Auror asked with difficulty.
"Go back to the Ministry of Magic and notify other countries. This is no longer something we can handle."
After the captain finished speaking, he Apparated away directly, and the other Aurors quickly followed, fearing that they would fall behind by a second. []
Fifteen minutes later.
Hundreds of owls flew out of the Austrian Ministry of Magic, delivering information in all directions. All wizards who had already left work received an urgent notice and had to rush back to the ministry immediately.
The Austrian Minister of Magic slumped in his chair, and his eyes lit up when he thought of something.
"Yes! Dumbledore!"
"He could defeat Grindelwald back then, and he can still do it now!"
"Quick, go to London to invite Mr. Dumbledore!"
"Minister..." The assistant rummaged through the boxes and took out the British Daily Prophet from a few days ago, and opened it on the table.
"Have you forgotten that Dumbledore is now a wanted criminal, and no one knows where he is!"
The Austrian Minister of Magic looked at the photo in the newspaper and the reward of 100,000 Galleons, and was stunned for a moment, then he looked up to the sky and shouted:
"Fudge! I fuck your grandma!"
Paris.
After leaving Nurmengard, the first place that appeared in Grindelwald's mind when he Apparated was here.
He didn't think too much about it, and followed his inner thoughts and appeared on the street.
Champs Elysees.
A man suddenly appeared on the street, startling the pedestrians around him, and they all thought they were dazzled.
Grindelwald didn't care, and walked on the familiar yet unfamiliar street.
Seventy years ago, he announced his return here, and from then on he gathered the saints and started a war for the rights of wizards.
It was also here that the most important blood alliance token for him was lost.
It was stolen by Newt and Nicolas Flamel, two unscrupulous guys.
Grindelwald's eyes darkened.
When he thought of Newt, the old freckle, his good mood of regaining freedom was half gone.
Looking at the buildings around, there are more buildings here and they are taller than a few decades ago.
The last fire almost destroyed half of Paris.
Now NewtNo, I heard from Lawrence that Nicolas Flamel has also gone to England.
If he wants to destroy this city, no one should be able to stop him, right?
Suddenly, Grindelwald's eyes fixed on the boy standing in the middle of the street looking at him a few dozen meters away.
How did Lawrence know he was here? !
Although he was panicking, Grindelwald did not show his fear on the surface, but walked towards the boy.
When they were four or five meters apart, he spoke.
"Are you here to arrest me?"
Wayne showed a warm smile and put his index finger on his lips.
"Shh..."
In an instant, the whole world fell into stillness. .
