Chapter 376 ["Ruyi Treasure Book" Rubbing·Remnant (Purple)]
“Barty, how are you feeling now?”
Ted closed his eyes and rested, actually communicating with his butler, Barty Jr.
“I’m fine, Master.”
Little Barty on the other side stopped what he was doing and pretended to think.
“So, how are you doing now?”
“I am currently Deputy Director of the Office for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Magic at the Ministry of Magic.”
“Oh, that sounds great. It surprises me.”
“Thank you for your compliment.”
It has to be said that Barty Jr. is really a genius.
Not only as a wizard, but also as a public official, he is quite talented.
As early as a few months ago, Ted had used Sirius and Lucius's personal connections to place this young wizard who had "returned from abroad" into the Ministry of Magic in a roundabout way.
Later, little Barty relied on his own skills and abilities to climb to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement!
Although Barty Jr. is currently only the deputy director of the Office for the Prohibition of Abuse of Magic, it is, after all, an office under the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, the most powerful unit of the Ministry of Magic!
And in less than three months, he was already the deputy director!
To be honest, Ted was a little surprised.
If you let yourself go, without using psychic powers, and just relying on your wrist and ability, can you rise so fast?
The answer is no.
I am not office material!
There is a saying: If you hold a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail. I can no longer adapt to the environment of office politics. Definitely can't get along.
Of course, there must be external factors as to why little Barty was able to rise so quickly and become a deputy director as a "turtle" wizard in a short period of time.
The wizarding world and Muggle society are in such chaos during this time! It’s a mess!
Not to mention that the Ministry of Magic is short of manpower, it has even lost seven or eight people!
At this time, Barty Jr. and his people not only solved a lot of clerical tasks, but also assisted the Aurors in arresting many dark wizards who were misbehaving and abusing magic against Muggles due to the chaos of the current situation.
Not to mention that two days ago, the Ministry of Magic sent a team to a place named Thorn Ridge to negotiate with the wild boar people. Little Barty was one of the team members. That is someone who has the courage to do his job regardless of hardships and dangers, and has made a contribution at a critical moment!
In addition, Fudge talked to him, and Barty Jr. very clearly supported any assignment from the minister and wanted to follow in the footsteps of the leader - Minister, I want to make progress so much!
At the time of hiring people, how could Fudge not use him!
Without this series of reasons, just a young wizard with no connections, he would have to be thirty-five years old if he wanted to climb to the position of deputy director, right?
Of course, Ted’s contribution must be indispensable for this—Ted gave him a very charming face! It is very common here to judge people by their appearance.
To be honest, if there weren't still some concerns about Barty Jr. and needed to be looked at again, or if he hadn't submitted a certificate of approval, Fudge would have promoted him long ago.
Ted gave up on Lucius as a secret agent before because he had already installed a more useful one.
Of course, Barty Jr. cannot be sent under Voldemort's nose, otherwise Voldemort will definitely see through Barty Jr.'s identity as an artificial human being.
Ted chose to "save the country through curves" and put little Barty into the Ministry of Magic and promoted him to a high level.
If Voldemort really gains power, he will definitely attack the Ministry of Magic. When the time comes, Barty Jr. will naturally join the Death Eaters.
Barty Jr. is a Death Eater who has taken refuge, which is different from taking refuge with Voldemort. Although the two seem to be the same, in the eyes of many established families, they are absolutely different. Then you’ll have something to play with!
Ted and Barty Jr. chatted for a while, exchanging information about Fudge's actions and the intelligence received by the Ministry of Magic, such as data on magical events.
What can be seen is that magical incidents in ordinary society, or mysterious incidents caused by things from other worlds, are on the rise.
It is said that many people there are now shouting about "the coming of the savior", "the coming of the end", "mysterious resurrection" and so on. Many people with no education at all are grouping together to engage in some strange religions.
It’s hard to say how many of them are fishing in troubled waters.
After contacting Barty Jr., Ted contacted Rita Skeeter.
Different from Barty Jr., except for his soul, Barty Jr. could be said to have received everything from Ted. His body was made by Ted using human body refining techniques and a little bit of Space Marine transformation technology. It can be said that the two are in a subordinate relationship.
Little Barty calls Ted Master, which is definitely not just an honorific, but also a real situation.
So Ted can telepathically connect with Barty Jr. at any time.
But not Rita.
Although she longs to be occupied, conquered, and severely suppressed from the bottom of her heart...she is still an independent individual.
Ted could contact her through dreams other than Utopia.
The use of Utopia is not secretive enough after all. In recent months, Psycrystal Parker has even been subject to dozens of "hacker attacks."
Many wizards with a spirit of research always want to give it a try after figuring out the underlying magic logic of Utopia.
Of course, the real core of Utopia is Ted's psychic powers, so their every move is closely monitored.
But this also shows that some smart people have already begun to think about it.
So Ted contacted Rita in dreams.
Ted only needs to send a specific expression in the communication, and the other party will know what it means.
“Cough cough~” A coughing sound came from the double-sided mirror, which meant that there was information coming.
Rita picked it up and took a look, with a flash of surprise in her eyes. "Okay, I know. Just put the manuscript here. I'm a little tired. I'll read it later."
The editor under her went out, and Rita quickly ran over to lock the door, then reached out and touched her chest, as if she could still feel a trace of pain traveling through her body.
She reached into her clothes, took out a gemstone necklace, held it in her hand, and began to hypnotize herself in the same way as falling into a dream.
A few dozen seconds later, she fell asleep on the chair.
“Ah~great master…”
…
A lot of things happened in the outside world during the first month of school.
Ted learned about the progress of the situation from different directions through Barty Jr. and Rita.
Although it is said that when the sky falls, there is a high one to hold it up. But I can’t watch a tall person fall! Then don’t you have to do it yourself?
So even though he showed that he didn't care about Dumbledore at all and had a completely nonchalant attitude, he had to continue to pay attention to him in private.
It's just that Dumbledore can't know about this kind of thing.
This kind of century-old silver coin, any mentality you have may be exploited by him.
If he really figures out your thoughts, you might end up working for him in vain. By then you will become a general who charges into battle! If the sky falls, you will be the jack!
During this period, the Order of the Phoenix and some of the pro-Deng personnel of the International Federation of Wizards have established strongholds in Denmark and other nearby small countries.
But Deng’s army and Fu’s army have temporarily ceased fighting.
This matter is really difficult to handle. Under the leadership of Voldemort, who is not crazy, the Death Eaters have already established a foothold.
The two sides have made some moves in private and there has been some friction. But none of them wanted to cause a scene.
If it were a full-scale war, the Death Eaters would definitely not be opponents. But Voldemort couldn't handle it, so it was all in vain.
If he really kills all his iron rods, then he will be completely unscrupulous!
A legendary magical terrorist, which sounds scary.
So Dumbledore and the people from the International Federation of Wizards could only contain the Death Eaters so that they could not leave Norway to expand their influence and territory.
The two sides are currently fighting in Sweden.
This seems to be back to the ten years before Voldemort's defeat. Dumbledore couldn't find a chance to kill with one strike, so he could only lie dormant.
Death Eaters are unscrupulous, but they can only show off their power in a small area.
Sure enough, history is a circle. In addition to Voldemort and Old Deng, Ted is also paying close attention to changes in the magical world and ordinary society.
In the magical world, Great Britain is like a microcosm—the whole world is suffering from the emergence of things from other worlds.
And according to Little Barty's first-hand information, even the wild boar people are not harmonious within themselves.
Because they are not a group of wild boars!
Little Barty and his Ministry of Magic delegation went to Thornhill, which can be seen from the architecture, clothing, daily conversations and customs of both parties.
There seems to be a group of wild boars called Agamaggan, with thick spike-like manes on their backs. The leader is called Kalga Thornribs, a female shaman.
What they admire is their ancestor—a demigod-level wild boar!
The other faction has a smaller number of people and a more arrogant attitude. They call themselves the stone tomb wild boar people. They are taller and stronger and use heavy weapons such as meteor hammers. They basically don't wear armor, which is completely different from the other group of wild boars.
The leader of the Stone Tomb Wild Boars is called the White Pig King. Little Barty used magic equipment to take a photo - he is three meters tall and looks like a giant beast from the wild.
They believe in a leader called Woma.
Because it involves the internal affairs of the wild boar people, people from the Ministry of Magic dare not inquire about it.
But little Barty still got some information. It seemed that Calga Thornrib convinced the White Pig King, and the two parties joined forces to live together. It is so powerful that it can stand firm in the new world.
Calga Thornribs’ idea is indeed a good one.
After the envoys from the Ministry of Magic returned, the Wizengamot held a conference.
Finally, based on the intelligence summary and analysis, it was decided to accept the wild boars, a new magical race.
The mountains and nearby territories that the wild boars have already occupied through giant thorns can only be allocated to them.
According to the level classification given by Ted, Little Barty speculated that Calgar Thornrib is at least a level 15 shaman, and the White Pig King is more likely to be a magic warrior profession of level 17 or above!
This is why the wizard compromised. No matter in which world, the strong and the weak are treated completely differently.
This phenomenon is most vividly demonstrated in Spain.
Over there, just like England, a tribe of magical races from another world appeared near the swamp.
It is a race with scales on its body that looks like a lizard and claims to be an Argonian.
As a result, the small tribe, which only had more than 60 people and no powerful wizards, was wiped out by the Spanish Ministry of Magic.
He claimed that they were occupying land without permission, so he took them all to a specific place and imprisoned them, and began to carefully check whether there were any good things that could be looted!
Nowadays, in various countries, there are more or less landforms that did not exist before.
Some strange animals and plants may appear.
What's more, it's like Britain and Spain. Not only the terrain is here, but also the indigenous people!
The same is true for Muggles. All countries are now struggling to educate the public about strange-looking animals and plants that seem unscientific.
Every now and then, you can see something strange running past on the street, followed by a large group of people chasing after it.
The increasingly prosperous dinosaurs are also a problem.
It is clear that the climate, oxygen content, etc. are not suitable for the environment in which they live, but as a result, they began to multiply wildly.
Those herbivorous dinosaurs gnawed wantonly in various rainforests, and those carnivorous dinosaurs were even more outrageous. They even targeted farms in the distance, feeding a dozen cows and sheep in one meal!
There was even a report yesterday that a pterosaur had built a nest and hatched eggs on the Empire State Building in AmeriCorps.
Europe is better, mainly Southeast Asia and South America.
The Muggles over there have dispatched a small group of special forces to clear out the dinosaurs.
What’s even more outrageous is that some people actually protect dinosaurs and claim that dinosaurs also have the right to live.
Hunting a demonstration for this purpose, they sat on the road and blocked in front of the armored vehicle with a banner reading "Fear Your Life Is Precious".
What’s even more interesting is that one of the leaders, whose name was the most joyful, had her mother snatched away by a velociraptor when she was collecting clothes in the evening.
Finally, he cried and called the police. The police worked for five hours and recovered a leg.
Dinosaurs also have the right to eat, right?
…
“Ding~ The talent [Knowledge from Another World (gold)] was triggered, and [Ruyi's Book of Ruyi·Remnant (Purple)] was discovered.”
【The rubbing of "The Ruyi Treasure Book"·Fragmented (Purple)] records some precious magical powers in the Secret Code of Heaven and the Ruyi Treasure Book among the Nine Heavenly Secretaries. This content was obtained by Yuan Gong's private rubbings on the stone wall of Baiyun Cave in Yunmeng Mountain, and was later scrawled on the stone wall. It requires 1850 experience points to redeem.
When September 1st arrives on time, the knowledge of other worlds also arrives on time.
This time it’s an unexpected surprise for Ted!
Completely unexpected, it turned out to be purple quality!
Moreover, looking at this description, there are some heavenly secret codes, nine-day secretaries, wish-fulfilling treasure books, and magical powers!
This is a bit fantasy, isn't it?
This description, is it just a purple quality? Shouldn't this be golden? !
No matter what color it is, change it first! Isn’t it just three or four days’ experience?
Now I am good at this!
coming! It's coming!
Just like the previous times, this purple-quality alien knowledge is not just poured into your mind. But it’s a very novel experience every time.
This time, Ted seemed to have become a child, no! It looks at everything "oneself" does from a child's subjective perspective.
In a cave, a little boy used rice paper to rub calligraphy on the stone wall and bound it into a book.
There seemed to be thousands of golden lights flashing on the wall, and every cloud seal was twisting. The closer you looked, the harder it became to see clearly.
It wasn't until a long time passed that Ted woke up and sat up.
He suddenly understood what this knowledge was about!
"Ping Yao Zhuan", "Sansui Ping Yao Zhuan", "Tian Shu Qi Tan"... are probably related to these.
Yuan Gong was a white ape who was enlightened by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
There is an idiom called: The death of the ape in Chu State spreads the disaster to the trees. The city gate caught fire, affecting the fish in the pond.
It is said that the Chu State caught monkeys and caused disaster to the entire forest; the city gates were set on fire and all the fish in the moat were boiled!
And this dead ape of the Chu Kingdom is none other than Mr. Yuan!
After he arrived in heaven, he was given the minor official position of librarian. If you want to talk about this position...it's better not to talk about it!
In short, he couldn't bear to put this magical power on the shelf, and hoped that it could be spread among the people to punish evil and promote good. So he secretly carved the secret book on the stone wall. Later, he was punished by Tian Tiao.
The one he got was a failure that was originally carved on the stone wall and then rubbed by Dan Sheng himself, but failed to print well.
Ted personally saw Dansheng throw the damaged paper on the ground.
No wonder it’s only of purple quality, this is the parallel import plus monkey version!
The wish-fulfilling treasure book records thirty-six heavenly gangs, seventy-two earth evil spirits, and a total of one hundred and eight kinds of magical powers. Now I only get three things.
It's still the Gang of One and the Evil of the Two Earths - calling for wind and rain, taking food, and changing!
When talking about the art of transformation, everyone thinks of Sun Dasheng’s seventy-two earth evil transformations.
It can transform into various things, such as the flagpole erected in the temple at the back, etc. It can avoid three disasters and six disasters. Once you have completed cultivation, you will be outside the Three Realms, no longer in the Five Elements, and will no longer be bound by the ordinary rules of life and death.
But that is only part of the art of change. collectively called changes.
Taking it is also relatively simple, and those techniques such as alchemy, guidance, and breathing all fall into this category.
Mainly relying on external things to make up for oneself, the most typical one is taking pills. There are also those who eat other natural and earthly treasures, which is a method of supplementing oneself with external objects. ,
90% of basically those secret books on cultivation fall into this category.
The final ability to control the wind and rain is even more powerful. This is a real magical power!
You see in Journey to the West, in the battle between Che Chi and Sun Dasheng, the three great immortals competed with each other to pray for rain.
This thing is not something that can be done with a little magic power.
The Dragon King of Jinghe River rained, more often than not, and the data was off by a factor of one and a half, so everyone had their heads chopped off!
This is a superior magical power involving the general laws of water and gas movement in the world!
