Chapter 341 Magic Battle Flag: Four Kingdoms Kill
Speaking of which, the International Confederation of Wizards is not an ordinary organization.

Although in the original book, it seems to have little presence.

But the original work mainly revolves around Great Britain, and the content outside the British Isles is not mentioned at all.

If you really take a deeper look at their "record", you'll know that this group of the best wizards in the world has tremendous abilities and power.

It's like reprimanding a country's Minister of Magic. If this happened in the Muggle world, wouldn't it be an infringement of sovereignty?
Who has ever heard that the United Nations can reprimand a country’s leader and even affect his re-election?
At the beginning, Grindelwald tried to declare an all-out war on Muggles and build a new world centered on magic and dominated by wizards, but he was defeated by the Wizarding World.

Although Grindelwald was defeated by Dumbledore himself, it was the people of the Wizarding Union who created this condition and restricted and disintegrated the so-called 100,000 saints.

By the way, Dumbledore himself is the honorary president of the Wizarding Federation.

However, since twenty years ago, he has been focusing on the internal affairs of Great Britain, or to be more precise, the trouble he left behind - Voldemort.

He planned to solve the trouble he had brought into the wizarding world during his lifetime. As for the affairs of the Federation, he had long since stopped caring about them.

After the last incident in Paris, Ted came into the sight of the International Confederation of Wizards as an "outstanding young wizard".

And once the investigation begins, it feels a bit legendary!

Born an orphan, he became the number one young wizard in Britain in just a few years - this is not self-praise or the Federation's evaluation, but a comprehensive evaluation of Ted by the British wizarding community.

Even those pure-blood families who were arrogant and used to looking down on others began to take Ted seriously two years ago.

At that time, Ted and his friends solved the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets and were thanked by many wizard parents.

It was also at that time that Ted began to establish friendships with the Longbottom, Black, Weasley and other families.

By the time the influence of the Salty Fish House spread, no one in the British wizarding world could deliberately ignore him.

Many families have warned their descendants not to have conflicts with Ted Epifani, and it would be great if they could become friends.

Now, as the Utopia magic network spreads, a revolution is taking place that is difficult to detect because you are in it. The networks of contacts that Ted had previously built are intertwined to form a large network.

From subhumans to dwarves and midgets, from pure-blood families to elite wizards with a certain status like Mr. Giggs...

In fact, many pure-blood families have shown goodwill to Ted in various ways, mainly from Sirius - many rare magic materials before were provided by those pure-blood families, which were difficult to buy and had a high price but no demand.

So, although there was no fanfare, Ted was actually widely accepted as the number one of the younger generation.

Not to mention anything else, just these little wizards in Hogwarts, 99% of them would be willing to do something with him if Ted raised his hand.

What will the situation be like when they all graduate and enter the wizarding world?
In this situation, the International Confederation of Wizards wants to observe Ted closely. If he is suitable, he can be developed into a backup force!
After Dumbledore passed away and met the Western magic master Merlin, he asked Ted to join the Federation as the British representative.

However, when I looked at it again here, it was different.

Utopia explodes!

Especially with the help of this top seven competition, the sphere of influence suddenly radiated to the whole of Europe and scattered other continents.

In the past, wizards were few in number and scattered throughout the world, like salt sprinkled into a pot of stew: it added flavor but they were invisible.

This is why the Federation strongly opposed Grindelwald - they clearly realized that Muggles are the dominant force in this world. Wizards cannot win.

One consequence of the vast land and sparse population is that it is loose! Too loose! Much looser than the bulky Jiangsu Province.

Not to mention anything else, in such a tiny place like Britain, there are only 30,000 wizards, and most of them have only seen each other during school.

After graduation, many classmates may not see each other for ten or twenty years. This is too normal. Most wizards are homebodies.

Not to mention the exchanges and connections between wizards from different countries.

Rely on newspapers? It takes two or three days for foreign newspapers to arrive. This is also due to the slow pace of life of wizards.

However, the emergence of Utopia directly changed this phenomenon.

Although in reality, we are still thousands of miles apart, even across the ocean, but in the magic network, we are holding hands and connected hearts to each other!
Recently, the daily transaction volume in the Xianyu trading area has reached 800 items!
The transaction amount on the auction network exceeded 1500 gold galleons!
If it weren't for the limitation of logistics, which would limit it to a few nearby countries, this figure would have skyrocketed several times.

Some time ago, during the Quito World Cup, there were a lot of posts in the sports area.

A number of wizards have agreed to meet privately to organize Quidditch matches. This was difficult to do before - it was difficult to get enough people together.

Even according to incomplete statistics from some wizards who can't find a partner but really want to find one - in the Utopia Forum's Emotional Heaven area, the number of wizards who have already started "online romance" has exceeded a hundred!

From this perspective, the fertility rate is expected to increase!

This thing is so good! I want it~
However, when the two-sided mirror terminal was taken back and disassembled by a group of outstanding wizards, they finally came to a conclusion - No!
This thing is so impossible to replicate that it's not just a matter of unique magic. It's a unique innate ability - like Metamorphmagus or Parseltongue.

It was Epifani who used his unique ability to build the core of the magic network. Without this thing, the two-sided mirror terminal, magic network signal tower, ground vein fluctuation magic network, etc., are all useless!
How to do it?

Definitely not going to be tough.

That's not a serious operation. Only a Sabine would do that. The Wizarding Union is not the Sabine organization from another world in those novels.

You're forcing such a promising young man to go to the other side?
Are you attracted to his supreme bone, his childhood sweetheart, or some strange beast that carries him with him?

Besides, you think Dumbledore is just a freeloader. Even if he doesn't take care of things, he is still the honorary chairman!

Therefore, they had to use gentle means to win over Ted.

Not only that, but his safety and proper growth must be ensured.

So, here comes Mr. Piris Terman, the representative of the International Confederation of Wizards.

He wanted to test the effectiveness of the utopia himself, and the best way was to hold a competition!

The judges discussed the plan, and Ted organized a development team to make a simple level.

It’s not difficult, it’s really simple.

Compared to the Weasley twins' games, which have complicated plots, many mysteries and easter eggs, and damn insidious and insurmountable levels, this kind of magic chess is a backward project.

When the young wizards in the development team heard this, they thought, “Oh, we can actually build a virtual level for the Seven-Power Tournament! This is so cool!”

Working day and night, it was completed in two days and three nights.

The judges tried it themselves and seemed very satisfied - to be more precise, they were so surprised that they couldn't close their legs.
"This, this, this kind of thing... can it actually do this?" Principal Black Monkey from Wagadu was completely shocked, and the shock in his heart was about to overflow and flow all over the floor.

He touched the magic chess pieces and the mottled stone slabs on the ground, feeling the real touch, and his whole body was shaking.

This is too shocking. If this happened in the Eastern world, it might break one’s heart.

Even now, he has completely lost the idea of ​​making Vagadu great. He only has one thought now - times have changed~
However, although the others were not as out of control as he was, they were too busy to laugh at him.

Because their calmness was also fake, their pupils trembled, and they could not even tell the difference between this magical virtual world and the real world.

Can't see it, can't see it at all!
It wasn't until I pinched myself hard and found that it only hurt a little that I felt relieved.

Of course, what they don’t know is that this is because the default real touch of Utopia is only one-tenth, and they are worried that it will be too painful and too real, which will hurt the players’ spirit and psychology.

But in fact, you can adjust your senses to 300 percent!
Hermione dragged Ted to try it once...and after that she never dared to try to replenish magic in the game again.

In fact, even the members of the development team feel that Utopia is now very powerful!
It was not like this a dozen days ago, until Ted came up with the "Virtual World Infrastructure Improvement Plan". In fact, it was the Oasis Core.

Once the Oasis core is installed, it will be a complete upgrade. Normally, if it is optimized by "magic programmers", it will take hundreds of people ten to eight years to achieve hope.

With the number of wizards, it might be impossible to achieve this effect.

After all, because there are few people, there is no server and data pressure, and there is no urgency or motivation for competition and optimization.

And now, with ready-made plans as a reference, the utopia has evolved!

That was just a random move to scare you!
It’s just a level of magic war chess, but the little wizard has already started optimizing the project he is responsible for.

Someone even suggested playing a "dating game," but Ted stopped it.

Although the old and the old are the primary productive force, you are too enthusiastic.

Cyber ​​lovers are not allowed!

With great difficulty, the birth rate can be raised thanks to exchanges among seven schools and online dating. Once this thing comes out, wizards will probably become extinct within a hundred years!
If something goes wrong, the country will be destroyed earlier than South Korea!
……

Due to their identities as warriors, Ted and his friends did not participate in the development of Magic Battle Chess.

After the development was successful, I didn’t ask too many questions, but listened to the judges’ explanation about the next level.

This level is a bit interesting.

Maybe it was because the Hogwarts warriors performed so well that the other judges wanted to impose some restrictions.

Therefore, there is no team formation at all in this level, and you may even have to fight against each other.

That’s right, it’s probably something like Three Kingdoms + Werewolf + Monopoly.

However, they have to draw their own identities, then enter the war chess board and play according to the rules of the board.

Because identities are extracted and kept secret, identities and factions are broken up.

Your teammate before might be the "lord" of the opposing team, or might be the "traitor" on your side.

And the team consists of four people!

You have to reach the end of the board first to get a high score.

Of course, using rules or props to severely punish other teams and create opportunities for teammates will also increase your score.

But be careful, because the identities are kept secret at the beginning, and you might be eliminated by your teammates.

Or maybe you actually helped the other team's "lord", allowing the opponent team to win first place! You will definitely lose points in that case!

I have to say, this rule is powerful.

First, the seven people from Hogwarts were directly defeated, making their huge advantage vanish into nothingness.

It can also directly eliminate the disadvantages of the weaker team.

And those alliances that were agreed upon privately are no longer possible.

Suddenly everyone is back at the starting line, and since their identities are unknown, it will be interesting to watch.

As soon as the competition rules for this level were announced, the Utopia forum exploded.

Many people have analyzed the cleverness and excitement of this level and listed many possible situations.

Just reading these people’s analysis is so exciting.

This led to a surge in sales of two-way mirrors, and the newly increased productivity was no longer enough.

Wizards from more distant countries have already contacted Xianyu's House and asked to be the agent for the two-sided mirror. They will also invest in building a magic network signal tower to connect the magic network to their homes.

Today, the heat and popularity of the top seven tournament have reached their peak.

Every day, there are dozens of featured posts about the Seven-Power Championship alone. The number of active users in Utopia has exceeded 60,000, which is twice the number of wizards in Great Britain!

So, that gambling director of the Sports Department, Ludo Bagman, started to get restless again.

This time, this time I will definitely be able to turn the tables!
……

The little mermaid Ellie, who was trapped in the head girl's bathroom, was finally "rescued" by Ted.

Because his lower body is a fish tail, he has difficulty moving and cannot leave the water for a long time, so Ted developed a "bubble spell".

A bubble floating on the ground, able to control its own movement and stay moist, wraps the little mermaid wearing a beautiful dress and walks slowly in the corridor of the castle.

Of course, Ted definitely had no other reason than Dumbledore suggesting that he talk to the Little Mermaid.

Because her relatives have been contacted, and now the British Ministry of Magic is negotiating with the mermaid tribe.

The other party's attitude was quite good and the two sides had a good chat.

After all, both sides are in the midst of a major change that has not been seen in a thousand years, and they are willing to have further contact.

So, for the time being, the little mermaid is "going to school" at Hogwarts.

It turns out that Ai Li is only 12 years old and can only go to the second grade. Don't judge a person by appearance!
All we can say is that there is a difference in the growth trajectories of mermaids and humans.

During this period, Jerry's childhood sweetheart Sydney came to visit the school.

Because the judging panel decided after discussion to invite the warriors' families to watch the game in person.

Jerry's mother and Sydney are here.

Aunt Molly will also come before the game starts, and Sirius, Lupin and others will also come to watch.

As for Hermione, because of the Grangers' identities, Ted sent her a pair of two-sided mirrors that could be used without magic after discussion - they were powered by a magic crystal, and Hermione had to charge it every time she went home on vacation.

As long as the magic crystal activates the two-sided mirror network, the utopia here will open a VIP channel, which is mainly provided by Ted's mental power.

During this period, there were some problems in the relationship between Ron and Lavender, and they were in a cold war.

Harry and his Gryffindor classmates all said that they hadn't seen Lavender absorbing Ron's soul for several days.

And that Krum was also very close to a Gryffindor sixth-year girl.

It seems that the girls of Ravenclaw are not very interested in these big and strong athletic boys. They are very interested in the students of Beauxbatons.

The Hufflepuff girl is a little transparent, but she gets along well with the South American team because of Herbology.

There were quite a few girls in Slytherin who were interested in Krum. After all, he was an international sports star and had a high level of dark magic skills.

But Krum did not choose these overly reserved pure-blood girls, but chose a Gryffindor.

Undoubtedly, this incident will be another reason for conflict between Slytherin and Gryffindor.
