Chapter 376 Muggles Are Careerists

Chapter 376 Muggles are careerists

Seeing their curious expressions, George will close them together, and this question cannot be answered in a few sentences.

He said slowly, "The Triwizard Tournament was established more than 700 years ago. After the establishment of Hogwarts, the atmosphere of isolating the real world began to spread to some other countries. Some magical powers in Europe, It also began to follow the example of Hogwarts to establish a similar house mechanism."

"Under this circumstance, magic academies in various countries have also begun to flourish, and wizards have begun to establish powerful and effective organizations. As the forest grows, everyone has everything, and the more people there are, the more ideas they have."

"Everyone feels that their academy is the best academy, and they all feel that their country is the most powerful wizarding country."

"In that case, the exchanges and battles between the magic academies will become logical. The Triwizard Tournament is like this. It has both a meaning of comparison and a friendly exchange."

"The three largest wizarding schools in Europe, Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, after some negotiation, jointly held the Triwizard Tournament. This divided three academies and three magical kingdoms. The competition is held every five years and is held in rotation by the three colleges."

After listening to George's explanation, Harry and Ron immediately became interested, which was much more beautiful than Quidditch and the House Cup. The battle between the three academies of the three countries, the competition of the students, the division of the academies, and the determination of the strength of the three magic countries, that is really cool.

"Then can we play?" they asked immediately, already imagining that attending such a major international event would receive no less attention than the Quidditch World Cup.

"Obviously, no, this year's contestants must be over 17 years old." George decisively extinguished their illusions.

"Why did they stop holding it before?" Hermione asked sharply. According to the history she knew, Hogwarts had not held the Triwizard Tournament in the past few hundred years. If there is, there should be a record there.

George said slowly, "The competition within the academy is, at most, the fists and sticks on the Quidditch field, and some curses thrown to each other in private. But the competition between countries will bleed and kill people."

"The Triwizard Tournament had too many participants and too many people died. So it only lasted for more than a hundred years before it was interrupted. There have been attempts to resume it since then, but they were unsuccessful."

"Can people die?" Hermione shouted in disbelief. "How could the school allow students to participate in such a competition?" She couldn't understand, shouldn't the school be a safe place to educate students? Participate in a Triwizard Tournament with high casualties.

"Not only will people die, but a lot of them will die. On the other hand, the number of people who have signed up has not decreased." George said more exciting content in a leisurely manner.

"Aren't the students afraid of death?" Harry and Ron also had a chill. Although they were very interested in this popular event, they had absolutely no plans to lose their lives.

"So there is a huge difference between ancient magic and modern magic, and modern wizards are very lucky." George said meaningfully.

Hermione asked thoughtfully, "Is it because the wizards at that time still used ancient magic. The magic they learned and used would face the backlash of magic, so they looked down on life and death?"

She remembered that George once said that the amazing destructive power of ancient magic is not only aimed at the outside world, but also at the wizards themselves.

George nodded and said, "That's why, with the popularization of modern magic, wizards will not face the threat of death all the time. They have no more interest in the Triwizard Tournament. The population is small and cannot afford the risk of mass death."

"Then why do they have to start the Triwizard Tournament again." Hermione said sharply, "It's too dangerous."

George said flatly, "Don't worry too much,

You are not old enough to compete. What's more, the three academies will not go crazy for no reason, they have improved the competition system this year and added protection measures. After all, the wizarding world has progressed very slowly over the years, but it has made some progress. "

He said solemnly, "This is a good thing. The wizarding world needs some fresh energy."

He can also see it clearly. The reason why the magic world has been slow in recent years is also closely related to the isolation of the wizarding world. Wizards cut off from the real world and ensured that they would not be contaminated by Muggles.

But at the same time, the too pure world also makes their civilization lack ambition and vitality.

Wizards are very small, even Voldemort, if calculated strictly, his ** is only immortal. He named his group the Death Eaters, which means conquering death.

But if you compare his ambitions and dreams with the careerists in the Muggle world. It was immediately apparent that even the most terrifying Dark Lord in the wizarding world was as pure as a little white rabbit compared to the careerists of the Muggle world.

The careerists in the Muggle world really control the sky above, the earth below, and the air in the middle. Immortality is only a small part of their ambitions.

As early as more than 2,000 years ago, Qin Shi Huang of the Muggle world once sent Xu Fu to Penglai with a team of 3,000 boys and girls, hundreds of soldiers, craftsmen, logistics, and more than 5,000 people to obtain the elixir of immortality.

Qin Shihuang failed to find the elixir of death, but he still did not give up. After that, he built the Epang Palace, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses.

Compared with Voldemort, who just wanted to live forever, the careerists in the Muggle world had already pinned their ambitions on the sky. Some of them claim to be Heaven, and some modest ones also claim to be Sons of Heaven. They may be Sons of Heaven or Laozi of Heaven.

As for the ambitions of becoming the king of the gods, the gods above the gods, it is even more commonplace. For careerists in the Muggle world, canonization of gods is also commonplace.

Of course, none of them succeeded, their world was big enough, their ambitions were big enough, but they were all Muggles, and neither had magic. But even this cannot hide the fact that Muggles are ambitious.

Every Muggle knows that once he succeeds, his bones will die, and he will bleed and scribble idle books. With the head on the shoulders, you can take the lead, and dare to be called the old man of the sky. The demon king of the Muggle world has always wanted to destroy the world and rule over everything.

The magical world is another state. The magical world is too small, and even the ambitions of the wizards who have integrated into the magical world are too small. The practice of ancient wizards to isolate the real world protected the purity of the wizarding world, but it also greatly suppressed the pattern and ambition of the wizarding world.
