The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts - Chapter 712
Skeffen knew that because of his identity, many people at the Ministry of Magic in the country were dissatisfied with him.
Especially at this critical moment, the situation of his “former upper bound” will inevitably become more embarrassing.
But he didn’t have any other thoughts, he just hated those people staring at him with all kinds of suspicious eyes.
Taking a deep breath, Sigeffen raised his head and recalled:
“As you all know, I have lived in a family manor since I was a child. Compared with the metropolitan area we are now extending, the family manor I live in is actually much purer. There is no advanced technology there, and there is nothing People in fancy clothes have no entertainment.
The entire manor is actually similar to Hogwarts, covering a huge area, with its own jungle hunting ground and a huge artificial lake.
Of course, the main building of the manor is not a stone castle, but an ordinary palace. And because the population is not large, it looks very empty inside.
What I remember best is how clean it was.
Every corner of the manor is equipped with self-cleaning magic, and every moment is kept in a spotless new state.
The people walking in and out are also wearing clean white robes, their bodies are extremely clean, and even their hair is fluffy and dry.
We learn all kinds of knowledge there every day, whether it is swordsmanship, magic or doctrine, it is our compulsory course.
But at the same time, it was filthy.
The people who live there have black hearts.
They are intriguing in the manor. Although they will not clash on the surface, they will often deliberately murder others, or even kill them, because they are very young.
And for this kind of thing, my father has always been indifferent.
He seemed happy to see us compete, even if it was a tragedy that sometimes resulted in death.
But I can also understand him.
After all, there are too many descendants and people with inheritance rights.
If they don’t compete with each other, I guess he really doesn’t know how to choose. ”
Everyone listened with interest to Sigeffen’s story, there was a secret story about the elder family of the International Federation of Wizards, which was very attractive to them.
Even Link nodded.
It’s just that he’s only concerned with the way in which Skeffen’s family raises offspring.
From the description of Sigeffen, although most ordinary residents and a small number of nobles in Sky City have gradually become ‘cyberpunk’, or immersed in a happy life with rapid technological development.
But the top families in Sky City still maintain the same ancient training methods as the outside world’s noble wizard families.
That is to keep the children at home and teach them personally, or hire a tutor for closed education.
This kind of education method can prevent children from being hurt to the greatest extent, and can also make children’s thinking gradually develop in the direction they expect with the cooperation of parents and tutors.
But at the same time, there is also a probability that the child will be directly raised with a fool or a lunatic with a wrong view.
The Black family has always pursued this educational philosophy before.
It’s a pity that I didn’t know who I was listening to and gave up the original educational philosophy and sent all the children to Hogwarts.
If the original education method is still maintained, Sirius will not be so rebellious.
The group of people who lived with Skeffen lived even simpler than the descendants of noble wizards in the lower realms, and the education they received was more stringent, which was the most traditional way of education.
This is indeed necessary in Link’s view.
Of course, this is not to say that Link subscribes to that traditional extreme approach to education.
Rather, it is indeed necessary to implement extreme traditional education for the upper-level rulers in a place where the “new trend thinking” of Sky City has become extreme.
Because only in this way, can the small society in Sky City find a balance between tradition and fashion.
Otherwise, once this balance is broken, there is no need for No. 1 to occupy Sky City to do “Sky City Deterrence”.
It is estimated that the group of lunatics in Sky City has been driving Sky City to do things everywhere.
Newland obviously didn’t think as much as Link thought. After listening to Siege, he asked impatiently:
“You mean you have many brothers and sisters in the past? What about them now? Why have I only heard of the one named Yieta? And she seems to be a member of the outer family? It stands to reason that she is not qualified to receive the same education as you. of.”
Hearing that, the eyes of the people around him became even more curious.
They are in Sky City at this moment, and are slowly advancing towards the headquarters of the International Federation of Wizards in the central city of Sky City.
The information that Skeffen gave them might be of great help in the next course of action.
But Sigeffen’s expression suddenly became indifferent, and he said lightly:
“Guess how I was chosen as the family heir before?”
As soon as these words came out, Newland seemed to have thought of something, and was so surprised that he couldn’t speak, and almost put his hand in his mouth.
The rest of the people also looked weird.
The overall impression of Skeffen in their minds is good, righteous and kind, and it can even be said that he is a little pedantic.
Otherwise, it is impossible for them to allow such a ‘celestial person’ to infiltrate the most powerful center of the Ministry of Magic of the country.
It is precisely because of this that they can’t imagine that Skeffen can actually do that kind of thing.
“Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t kill them all.”
Sensing everyone’s gaze, Sigeffen said indifferently, “To be precise, they killed each other to the end, and they still wanted to kill me. Then I fought back. You don’t know what they have in their hearts. How gloomy. If one of them really becomes an elder of the International Federation of Wizards, I’m afraid Sky City, no, wizards and Muggles all over the world will not have a good life!”
“Yeah, you’re right, I agree with your approach!”
Newland patted Sigeffen’s shoulder lightly and said.
Others also gathered around at this time, comforting Sigeffen one after another.
However, the strange expressions on their faces did not disappear.
This kind of character of Siegefen obviously does not meet the expectations of old Harris for the heir, otherwise he will not drive Siegefen out of Sky City in the later period.
So why is Skeffen the appointed heir of old Harris again?
Apart from the fact that all the other candidate heirs have died, no one can think of a second reason.
And as the only beneficiary, Sigeffen said that he didn’t start killing people, so everyone would definitely not believe it.
But it doesn’t matter, anyway, because of Link’s bias, there are not many really clean and good people at the top of the entire Ministry of Magic in the whole country.
It can even be said that it is noble to be placed in this group of people like Skeffen.
While Link and the others were talking, the bright moon above everyone’s heads cracked once again through a long and narrow gap.
From Link’s perspective, it was like a lifeless eyeball suddenly had pupils, came to life, and was constantly watching the city below.
It’s just that the eyeball that appears in front of everyone is not just looking down, but more members of the Sky City Defense Team in white robes.
The group of people rode the aircraft and dispersed into small groups directly in the space at extremely fast speed, and dispersed into the sky city in small groups.
Not only that.
There is actually an artificial river as a barrier between the inner city and the outer city of Sky City. On weekdays, there are bridges on the land road as a connection, and a special light path is also set up in the sky.
At this moment, the artificial Hanoi in front of Link and others suddenly burst into a dazzling light.
I saw the water in Hanoi surged up quickly and flew out of the river in an almost bizarre posture, forming a translucent protective layer around the inner city group of Sky City.
And through the protective layer of the continuously surging water flow, everyone can clearly see that all the buildings near the river in the inner city are deforming, not only a large number of white-robed people are pouring out of them, but the building itself is gradually changing. It turned into the appearance of the city defense turrets that were smashed by Link’s control dragon.
“The outer city walls of Sky City are unfolding, which shows that we are now a real threat to the enemy in the International Federation of Wizards.”
Siegefan pointed to the huge wall of water that suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Outer city wall?” Nuland questioned with some yin and yang, “If my memory is correct, we seem to have already entered the sky city, right? Who built the outer city wall in the city center? You must not be confused, right? ?”
Many people who heard the words turned their heads and looked over.
Although they recognized the character of Skeffen, it did not mean that they would completely believe what he just said.
After all, what Sigeffen said just now was a bit serious and extremely unreasonable.
Seeing this, Sigeffen was not annoyed, just looked at Newland with the eyes of an idiot:
“Although I was locked in the manor all day when I was young, and I never visited Sky City in person, I still learned a little about the history of Sky City through books. I would first like to ask you one thing about this outer city wall. .
Do you think that Sky City has such a scale from the beginning? ”
Newland was a little embarrassed by the look of Siegefen, and just wanted to refute, Siegefen said first:
“Of course it’s impossible!
The sages who first created Sky City, no matter how smart and great they are, their vision is limited due to the relationship of the times.
At the beginning of the establishment of Sky City, they had no intention of developing Sky City into a super metropolis like it is today. At that time, their minds were completely on the “International Federation of Wizards”, and they just regarded it as an arrangement. It’s just a ‘dormitory dormitory’ for my small life!
Later, because of the turmoil on the ground, more and more people wanted to live in Sky City, so they were not allowed to use magic to expand Sky City for a total of two rounds.
The first round of expansion was to expand the original headquarters of the International Wizarding Confederation, turning it into a gigantic building as it is today.
The second round of expansion is to expand the current inner city, which is also the last round of expansion carried out by the first generation of sages.
In this round of expansion, the sages not only considered people’s livelihood issues, but also considered security issues.
Therefore, an ‘outer city wall’ was set up in the open area on the edge of the town, and defense facilities were erected within it.
Out of respect for the sages, the subsequent Sky City rulers of such urban planning have never changed it. Just doing all sorts of renovations inside the town to meet the needs of the residents. ”
“Is your statement wrong?” Newland frowned and said, “According to your statement, what is the matter with the place we are staying now? Isn’t this part of Sky City?”
Hearing this, Newland didn’t speak, just looked at Newland quietly, with a mysterious smile on his face.
And Link said with a smile:
“Strictly speaking, this place, which is what we call the outer city of Sky City, does not belong to Sky City. At least in the official definition of the International Federation of Wizards, this is the case.”
“But this is obviously not right! It’s clearly here…”
Nuland’s words stopped abruptly, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and his face was ugly.
Skeffen and Link really made their words very clear.
The Outer City is not actually recognized by the International Confederation of Wizards as part of Sky City.
So what are the buildings built on the outer city where they are now?
The answer is simple.
If it is not recognized, it is naturally illegal construction.
Newland was familiar with such things.
Because the place where he and his mother lived before is, strictly speaking, an illegal building.
Even Spinning Alley itself should not exist.
In the past, there was only one factory in this place, and the surrounding houses were all built illegally and privately by workers in order to settle their families. ZF has never really acknowledged the existence of Spinning Shuttle Alley.
Of course, they did not specifically come to criticize the behavior of the residents of Spinning Shuttle Lane, but ignored the increasing number of illegal buildings here.
No, in fact, it cannot be said to be ignoring, because they are actually secretly encouraging residents to carry out illegal construction in such places.
In order to prevent accidents, they also hired a group of architects in the name of the factory to help everyone build houses.
From zf’s point of view, the benefits of doing so are simply too many.
For example, ZF does not need to be responsible for rectifying environmental problems near the residential area of Spinning Shuttle Alley, nor does it need to do any infrastructure construction for the residents of Spinning Shuttle Alley, such as hospitals, schools, police stations…
All of these things do not need to be configured for the spinning alley.
After all, this place itself is an industrial area and should not be inhabited by people.
And the residents of Spinning Shuttle Lane did not dare to look for the things they asked for~www.mtlnovel.com~ They were afraid that their only living quarters would also be demolished in the name of illegal construction.
The outer city of Sky City is also in a similar situation.
It’s just that Sky City has gone too far in this regard, because the particularity of Sky City makes it impossible for the bottom-level residents to build residential areas privately like the residents of Spinning Shuttle Alley.
Therefore, they directly intervened in the construction of the outer city, expanded the space for the existence of the outer city, and made basic urban planning.
They even built a massive underground complete house similar to the inner city for the outer city, as well as the outer defensive gun towers.
Of course, the existence of these things is not to protect the lives of residents in outer urban areas.
The rulers of the inner city have greater intentions and intrigue in it.
