Chapter 130 128. International Situation
He chose Britain, a country with a hellish difficulty level, to start his own power acquisition.
Here is one of the largest magic ministries in Europe, and Dumbledore, who is recognized as the most powerful and upright wizard in the world. Voldemort did not adopt the guerrilla strategy of shooting and moving to another place, but directly fought to the end on the island of Great Britain.
However, although his theory is much more radical than Grindelwald, and he even proposed the slogan of killing all Muggles and leaving only wizards in the world in the later period, he also learned from the lessons of the past and never explicitly stated that he wanted to overthrow the "Statute of Secrecy".
Not touching the "Statute of Secrecy" is equivalent to not touching the bottom line of wizards all over the world.
And the "pure-blood superiority theory" can be regarded as maintaining the rule of the existing ruling class, so other magic governments are in a wait-and-see state when Voldemort stirs up the storm.
No matter how brutal he behaves in Britain, it is just Britain's internal affairs. As long as he does not come out to harm others, other magic governments are happy to see that Britain is not peaceful.
With Voldemort's lust for power, he certainly would not only focus on the British Isles, but this is the starting point for him to conquer the world. As long as he successfully completes the rule of the British magic world, he can use this as a foundation to influence other magic governments in Europe.
After all, when he is not too crazy, his thoughts and governance methods actually represent the interests of the vast majority of pure blood and half-blood (new pure blood).
Once the most difficult part is completed, just like the ancient siege war, the fixed big city will be occupied, and other small cities will also surrender. Most of the small magic regimes in Europe cannot resist his invasion at all.
It's just that Voldemort in the original book became crazier and crazier later, and he also believed in the prophecy of the savior, creating a fateful enemy for himself, and wasted more than ten years because of his death.
Even so, after he was resurrected and came back, he successfully "designed" to kill Dumbledore and occupied the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts for a time. If it weren't for Harry Potter, the savior of destiny, he might actually be able to complete his rule over Britain.
Now the situation is even more different.
Voldemort killed Harry Potter, and he became more rational. His personality charm returned to the time when he first formed his power. Most importantly, he completed the all-round rule of the British wizarding world more than ten years in advance. Although he did not kill Dumbledore, he defeated him head-on, which made his prestige reach its peak.
At the same time, he relaxed the restrictions of the pure-blood theory, and oppressed only the "mudbloods". The half-blood wizards with the largest base were promoted and given more rights to check the pure blood. Most of the lives of other people did not change.
This made the British wizarding world, which originally changed the regime and redistributed the benefits, more and more wizards loyal to Voldemort.
Even if Dumbledore still exists with the resistance forces, his position cannot be shaken at all.
Now, the benefits of Voldemort's implementation of such a system have been seen by the French Ministry of Magic, which is closest to it. It has accepted Muggle wizards who escaped from the UK. French wizards who know more about the UK than wizards in other countries are also very clear about who is beneficial and who is harmful to such a system.
The French Ministry of Magic also had an ambiguous attitude towards Voldemort's government, and had never even issued any condemnation. The exchanges between the two sides' International Magical Cooperation Department became more frequent after Slughorn became the director.
The scene that happened in the tavern today showed a lot of things. Voldemort is having an increasing impact on the world outside the UK.
After thinking this through, Jon no longer had the relaxed mentality he had when he first arrived in France.
For the entire European magic government, these years have been at a very delicate juncture. The more stable the government under Voldemort's rule is, the more they have to express their attitude towards this social system.
The key to the subtlety is that no matter what attitude they express, it will not ease the bloodline conflict, but will intensify it.
So far, no magic government has made any statement on Voldemort's rule. Just treat the British Ministry of Magic as the previous Ministry of Magic, and everyone will get along as they did before.
It's just that they can't always maintain the status quo. In the future, someone will definitely force them to fight. These people may be wizards in their country, or they may be Voldemort himself!
At night, Jon thought about these things, and finally fell asleep without knowing when.
The next morning, Dumbledore took him to have breakfast in the pub again, and then the two left here together.
They walked out of Montmartre Square, the Diagon Alley street in France, and came to the residence of Muggles.
Then Dumbledore took Jon to use the Apparition in an unnoticed alley and arrived at the edge of a deserted town, and in front of them was a small wooden house.
The wooden house looked small, but the door frame was very high, reaching the roof, more than four meters.
They came to the door of the wooden house, and Dumbledore knocked on the door regularly, first knocking twice in a row, and then knocking three times intermittently.
Soon, this strange door was opened from the inside, and when she opened the door, Jon was also shrouded in a shadow.
This is a very tall witch. Jon even thinks she might be taller than Hagrid.
The witch was wearing an ordinary aqua blue robe and a pointed hat. She looked a little haggard. After seeing Dumbledore, she was still alert.
Dumbledore did not say anything, but gently tapped his wand at himself and Jon. The next moment they returned to their original appearance.
"Long time no see, Madame Maxime."
"Oh! Albus, you are finally here!"
The witch called Madame Maxime suddenly showed a surprised expression on her face. She bent down and hugged Dumbledore, and then took them both into her hut.
Dumbledore introduced her.
"This is my student, Jon Green. I brought him to France to take a look."
"Hello, ma'am." Jon called politely.
The first time he saw this witch, he recognized her identity.
There is only one witch with such a figure in the original book, and that is Olympe Maxime, the headmaster of Beauxbatons School of Magic who appeared in the Triwizard Tournament, a witch with giant blood.
To be honest, I criticized Voldemort quite badly in the first two books. In one book, he became a loli, and in another book, all the Horcruxes were sewn up by Sherlock. But in fact, Voldemort still had a pattern when he was not crazy. Of course, he became no different from a psychopath who only knew how to eat big melons later, and he looked very uncool.
This book is my compensation for criticizing him in two books, so that he can fill up his coolness.
If Tom Riddle in another world knew about this, he would probably be moved to tears.
