Chapter 1156： What is needed is not speech but action

"Huh, Minister, they will definitely take care of this. I think these people are instigated behind them to be so anxious..." Dirk Creswell in the Three Broomsticks Tavern withdrew his gaze, and he planned to continue it for himself. A glass of wine, "Huh? This is..." Creswell looked at the slightly trembling beer in the glass beer mug on the table, and saw the small bubbles that kept rising. He frowned in doubt and said to his companions. Earthquake? But we are in the air..."

"Stupid, watching Mrs. Rosmerta bartending drinks at the bar again, making you rippling?" The wizard beside him laughed and patted him on the shoulder.

"No, the beer is indeed shaking, what's the situation? And, do you feel...the wind coming in from the window seems to be bigger?" Another companion asked suspiciously, raising his beer glass.

The protests of the protesters outside the bar also turned into exclaims. In the sky above the floating city, the huge fire dragons of various shapes and colors stopped patrolling and bends, flapping their wings and quickly flew back to the floating city. They circled and fell in an orderly manner around the floating city, disappearing from the vision of the wizards, and they returned to the dragon caves dug in the mountains below the floating city.

Several floating ships previously announced also flashed back in large numbers. They gathered from all directions, and for a while, some densely gathered around the floating city. Under the guidance of the leaders of the floating ship terminal at Hogwarts, there were Start to dock sequentially.

Suddenly, there was a slightly more violent shaking, as if the floating city had just risen. The few unlucky wine glasses placed on the edge of the table crackled and fell to the ground. They fell to pieces and made one stable. The drunken wizard who lived in his body rolled onto the ground caught off guard.

This small change caused the timid people to scream suddenly, and the atmosphere on the scene became even more tense.

After panic, the wizards talked about the noise.

"Did the magical world of other countries attack the floating city?"

"Could it be that something went wrong with Floating City, let's not fall."

"Go to the fireplace! Leave first."

...

"Why?" As the director of the Fairy Liaison Office, Dirk Cresway said loudly, "The floating city has stabilized... just now those floating boats and fire dragons... this is not a sudden attack... it is the beginning of the floating city. Moved?"

The wizards in the tavern all walked out of the room and rushed into the square, looking up to see what happened. Although they can no longer feel the shaking now, walking on the square is so steady that it seems the same as usual, but it seems that there is no difference. In the sky of the fire dragon and the floating boat, the floating clouds moved quickly in one direction.

The wizards who desperately wanted to know what happened were a little impatient. They had already taken out their broomsticks and started flying into the sky. The oncoming wind blew their hair back, and looked down from a high place, only to see below. The deserted and populated land was shrouded by the floating city, and a huge shadow was reflected quickly moving forward.

Under the constantly passing clouds, the black lake with waves as flat as a mirror glowed in the sun, and the dark green rolling hills and jungles quickly passed under their eyes, only a piece of ink could be seen. The green shadow makes it hard to see the specific mountains and hills.

"Don’t panic, everyone, I’m Alan Harris..." Allen’s voice resounded throughout the floating city. I don’t know where the voice came from is very peaceful, like whispering in everyone’s ear, but Every wizard in the floating city can hear clearly, "The shock just now and what everyone feels now... are all from the floating city is moving. Please rest assured that all the actions of the floating city are under my control. Next...Everyone is very safe as always." Allen paused to give everyone a few seconds to digest time, "For specifics, you can go to the Ravenclaw Temple in Commercial Plaza. My father Owen Harris will be there for everyone in half an hour. Explain, of course... Harris TV is now reporting."

After receiving Allen’s explanation, the wizards who knew that their lives would not be a problem recovered their peace, but just like the female boss who was casting the repair spell and the drunkard who rolled on the ground a few times, many people Complaints should be notified in advance.

Seeing that many people who protested before started to go to the commercial square, a few tavern customers simply retreated back to the three broomstick tavern. They turned up the volume of the TV with a magic wand and found the commercial square in the south of Hogwarts Black Lake. In front of the steps of the Ravenclaw Temple, a temporary venue has been built, and many wizards in the floating city of Hogwarts have rushed over.

About thirty minutes later, in the commercial plaza that was originally empty due to planning, under the supervision of the Hogwarts guards on the outer umbrella, there were already a few piles of onlookers who came to receive the news, anti-Harris Some people from the pure-blood family also rushed over to deal with Harris's means of counterattack

Owen Harris, wearing the uniform of the Ministry of Magic, brought the Ministry of Magic and Aurors who would not be at Hogwarts on weekdays to the scene. Granger Hermione, the president of the umbrella company, and the head of the red umbrella department Penello Krivart also brought his company's men to the venue, but Hogwarts principal Alan Harris did not show up.

Without any extra opening remarks, Owen stood up directly after picking up his pocket watch to check the time.

"Today, I feel very lucky that Ravenclaw sheltered my family to come to this land and take root from here... In this island country suspended outside the European continent, neither my parents nor I have the local blood. , As many people know from some family magazines, my father is a wizard who followed the first generation of Dark Lord Gatler Grindelwald. For a long time, let alone you, even I don’t think I am It’s a British wizard..." Irving unexpectedly did not announce any news but said of his own life experience. Then his voice softened a lot. "I was fortunate to study in this Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I also met my wife who has devoted all her life to the family in this British magic school, Morgan Le Fay from the local pure-blood family Rozier... Although it is like many pure-blood families here. The situation is the same, this is a deliberate arrangement by the family, but luckily than many people, this is also our will, which allows me to recognize my identity... I don’t deny my foreign descent, but now I am also a British The wizard..."

"We are not here to hear your love story!"

"Your policy makes the economy terrible! You are using your power to commit a crime!"

The shouting protests in the crowd that the protesters wanted to start after the other party arrived seemed to have gone badly under the aura of the Ministry of Magic and the blessing of the tall and holy Ravenclaw Temple behind them, except for a few bold ones. Shouting out, more unemployed people just raised their protest signs dryly.

"I looked at the signs held by many people. I understand that since the rise of Floating City and the establishment of our own Wizarding Bank, everyone's lives have undergone drastic changes..." Irving gestured directly to the protesting crowd with his hands. "Recall carefully, everyone, what have we done in the UK for the magic world in the past few years? We have defeated the mysterious man and his Death Eaters several times, and after driving them out of the UK, we even We have spare capacity to help other countries... We have invented many novel magical creations and lowered the prices of many products so that most wizard families can afford things that they could not afford before... Improved the lives of wizards... My son announced His magical achievements have turned Animagus's mystery, which had fewer than ten global registrations a few years ago, into an ordinary polymorphism skill..."

"But now we are unemployed!"

"We can't afford anything now!"

Owen's words obviously did not satisfy the protesters below, and even made them feel angry because of his boasting.

"I understand your anger. In fact, I am also very angry. Our economy has indeed been destroyed, and many people’s lives are in a dilemma, but this shouldn’t be our own problem, shouldn’t it?" Irving was still very calm. He asked those who interrupted him, "Floating City and Nether Energy are products that would have benefited more people. He will let every wizard family live a rich life that a pure-blooded family could not live in before. , But we have done so much for the world of magic, what did they give us? The International Wizarding Union not only failed to maintain the "Secrecy Law", but even in turn hindered our actions to combat the Dark Lord. Criticism...Of course, they did apologize at UU Reading ; we lowered the price of a lot of creations for ordinary wizards, but this also offended many pure-blood families who made a living with huge profits; we wanted to solve it completely. The Dark Lord went to the Fairy’s Gringotts, but because the fairies worried about their...commercial reputation...was hindered. In other words, the fairies blessed the Dark Lord. He is now doing evil in Europe. avoid…"

"Minister Harris, we are not here to listen to you for these reasons and your achievements in the past. Now our workshop has been forced to close, and we have to eat!" The reasons Owen described are actually very clear to most people, but they are now facing When it comes to their own survival issues, there is no need to instigate the pure-blooded forces hidden in the crowd. These Harris' past achievements are nothing to the unemployed wizards.

"Oh, yes...it's useless, isn't it? Maybe you are curious, why my son who is better at speaking than myself, as described in the newspapers, I am good at giving cold and calculating speeches and Why didn’t Allen, the son of an evil voice-over and the owner of Hogwarts Floating City, not appear on the scene...Why didn’t you come and give these speeches on politics, order, and power to instigate people?" Magic workshop owner, "My son Allen realized from the very beginning that what the British wizards need is not speeches. Now, what they need is action... So now, our action has begun."
