Hogwarts: From Selling White Peppers to Becoming a God

Chapter 395 Live Broadcast of the Moon Landing

Zombies?

Was that scene from a movie?

No, that's unlikely. The smell, light, hearing, and physical sensations were all real. The "he" in my memory must have actually been standing there.

But how is that possible?

He had never experienced a zombie crisis in his previous life.

So it's an illusion?

After all, he may have already descended into the subconscious realm in the sea of ​​memories at that time. Perhaps it was like a dream, and his brain simply created that scene using some fragments of memory.

The data wasn't fully complete yet, so Murphy thought about it and decided to try a few more times.

However, when he used his full memory again this time, he found that he had a lot more medical and genetic knowledge in his memory, but the scene from before did not reappear.

Was it really just a hallucination?

He couldn't help but recall the scene from the first time he used "Total Recall" a few years ago. He used the "Lion King" animation as a trigger to delve into his memories at that time. He had a strong feeling that he could possess his past self and control him.

But he has hardly encountered anything like that since then, and he has always used full recall as a regular method to sort out his memories.

This experience made Murphy realize that there might be a mechanism he had not yet discovered for fully recalling the spell.

However, this can be studied later. At this moment, most of the necessary knowledge has been retrieved from memory. Murphy organized the information and handed it to Jawad for verification.

"Where did you get this information?" Jawad was shocked. Could there be someone more advanced than them?

"Some research from the Soviet national laboratory, and some from other places, you should verify them all."

"Alright!" Jawad nodded. "I can verify this data in two days at most. If it's all true, then our research and development of the vampire treatment might only take a few months."

With the help of the time accelerator, the experimental verification did not take long, and the information in this data had already given him some ideas on how to treat the adverse symptoms of vampires.

"Tell me when the drug has finished its animal testing phase, and I'll find you a few vampire volunteers," Murphy said.

Lisandro and his gang in Knockturn Alley are vampires who haven't seen sunlight for decades or even centuries; they'd definitely be happy to give it a try.

Speaking of which, he still owes them a favor from back then. He'll treat them for free when he gets back, right?

……

With his narcolepsy treatment resolved, Murphy had a lot of free time for a while.

All plans are progressing smoothly. In the Soviet Union, Project Ogas has covered almost all government departments, and the secondary computing nodes built by Umbrella Corporation are basically completed. It is expected that in a few more months, Murphy will be able to officially take over the Soviet Union's administrative system.

In the UK, Patrick pushed through the Second Amendment to the Constitution with an extremely tough stance, completely abolishing the House of Lords and the monarchy, but allowing the Queen and all existing nobles to retain their peerage titles, though no titles would be hereditary.

Most importantly, Patrick finally became president and took back most of the power.

Such a plan is a challenge to almost every power structure in Britain.

Not to mention that Patrick is still attacking the wealthy with a sense of resentment.

He abolished all tax exemption systems. Donations are tax-exempt? Bullshit! Donations must go through government-mandated channels; otherwise, additional taxes will be levied. Setting up a charitable foundation for one's wife and transferring money between oneself and others will no longer be possible. You say you're a foreign resident? Abolished the non-tax residency system for foreign residents. If you earn money in the UK, you must pay taxes in the UK.

Furthermore, the UK has introduced a "tycoon tax," levied on super-rich individuals with personal assets exceeding ten million pounds.

While Patrick was wielding his big stick, the Umbrella Corporation, the biggest tycoon under his protection, surprisingly turned against him and took the hit. With this back-and-forth, the effective tax rate for Britain's top billionaires reached an all-time high.

It is said that Morpheus Annon, the nominal founder of the Umbrella Corporation, pays more than £4 billion in taxes to the British government every year.

Patrick then poured the money collected from the wealthiest individuals into various infrastructure and public welfare projects, which led to the highest employment rate and public happiness index in Britain in nearly a century. Coupled with the positive publicity from the media controlled by Murphy, public support soared. The privileged, who were in the minority, were swept away by the tide of history before they could make any significant impact.

His next big move, which is brewing, is completely opposite to that of the foolish country with the surname A that Murphy was in before he transmigrated. He wants to nationalize all important industries such as people's livelihood and national defense through the protection umbrella.

Everyone has now realized Patrick's communist tendencies, but with the British economy essentially in the hands of the protectionist regime, the major capitalists are powerless to stop this communist process.

At the same time, cooperation between Britain and the Soviet Union became extremely frequent. An undersea fiber optic cable crossed the North Sea, transited through Denmark, connected London and Riga, Latvia, and then went to Moscow.

Murphy's Horcruxes can finally access the UK's internet.

As a result, various departments of the British government also began information technology reforms.

Six months later, while Murphy was discussing the future development of the Anglo-Soviet alliance with Patrick, he received a message from the aerospace laboratory that they were preparing to launch several lunar probe satellites and asked Murphy if he wanted to come and take a look.

Without saying a word, Murphy arrived at the launch site, where a large launch vehicle, an improved version of the "Proton," stood on the launch pad.

"We adopted a seamless extension technology to load fuel, which greatly saved space and mass on the ship. Currently, the Industrial rocket is only 40 meters high and has a launch mass of only 600 tons, equivalent to a quarter of the Energia rocket. It has a takeoff thrust of 9800 kN, but it can send a payload of 1,200 tons to low Earth orbit. We can launch 1,000 Starlink satellites weighing more than 1,000 kilograms each at once!"

In the launch control room, Shakhrin Popolov was ecstatic. "This rocket has a lunar orbit payload capacity of nearly 600 tons. In terms of payload capacity alone, it's enough not only for lunar exploration but also for lunar colonization."

"In fact, we have installed a levitation spell system on the launch pad, which can theoretically increase the launch mass by about 500 tons."

"However, lunar landing is not just about having enough transport capacity; orbital rendezvous and docking technology, soft landing technology, and space communication technology are all very important aspects."

"This launch is mainly to verify the reliability of important technologies such as seamless extension, levitation spell, and space communication technology."

Murphy silently calculated that a single Tsar Bomba weighs about 27 tons, and a payload of 600 tons would require 22 Tsar Bombas.

If there really are gods on the moon, Murphy is curious to know if they can withstand it.

"Once the exploration satellite enters lunar orbit, it will immediately begin observing the moon and its surface, and send the data back. We should be able to receive the signal around 4:30 PM. As you requested, it will land on the far side of the moon after completing one orbit."

Is it a live stream?

There is about a two-second delay, but it has little impact.

"Okay, I want to see for myself what's on the moon."
