Me and countless me.

Chapter 270: Reverse Training of the Heart Method
After hearing this, for a moment, Matilda's father Chandler thought he had heard it wrong, so he couldn't help but stick his head out, trying to make his ears unobstructed so that he could hear Li Ke's speech more clearly.

"Mr. Legolas, you just said..."

Li Ke, who was called Legolas in this world, crossed his fingers elegantly and spoke to Mr. Chandler in a very stylish manner.

"I mean, who am I going to kill tomorrow? Mr. Chandler, since Matilda and I have a good relationship, I can help you deal with some of them. You don't have to be so cautious and tolerant. After all, as a person engaged in smuggling and foreign trade, you should have at least tens of thousands of enemies. We only need to kill one or two thousand people among these tens of thousands of people, and then we can easily solve the trouble for a long time."

Li Ke responded with a smile, which made Mr. Chandler feel a little creepy.

Are there 20,000 people in the entire French magic world? As a result, Li Ke said to kill 1,000 or 2,000 people and clear out one-tenth of the population.

What kind of demon king is this? What kind of world can give birth to such a guy!

Chandler subconsciously wanted to take out his handkerchief to wipe his sweat. If it was any other first-year student, he would definitely think the other person was a fool. But he could not think of Li Ke as a fool. If he really took Li Ke's words as a joke, then he would be a fool.

From the other party's words, Chandler realized that Li Ke might have a little misunderstanding about the scale of the current magical world.

"No, I mean, Mr. Legolas, you may not know much about the wizarding world. Well, I mean..."

Chandler paused before speaking.

"If we kill all 100 people, the entire European wizarding world will be shaken. We will be discovered no matter what. The wizarding worlds of various countries will target us and send out joint law enforcement teams. Even the Wizengamot will ask Dumbledore to conduct a search! This will do absolutely no good to our cause."

He expressed his opinion very sincerely.

"And among the more than 100 people I mentioned, many are my relatives, so just a warning is enough."

Li Ke immediately showed a look of dissatisfaction. He frowned and looked seriously at Mr. Chandler in front of him, as if he really did not understand the population problem in the magical world.

"Is it that exaggerated?"

He drummed his fingers on the armrest of the table and gave a confused look.

"There are probably dozens of properties under our family name, each of which has seven or eight companies, and each company has at least more than a hundred people. Together, my family has about 50,000 employees in France. And our family's mining business in France kills thousands of people every year. But in the end, tell me, the father of the respected senior sister Matilda, Mr. Chandler..."

The smile on Li Ke's face slowly disappeared.

"In this wonderful magical world, the death of just over a hundred people has caused unprecedented turmoil and attracted the attention of the magical world of various countries?"

After a pause, Li Ke continued speaking.

"Especially now that I've been told how fantastic the wizarding world is and how deep-rooted and powerful your families are?"

Chandler inexplicably felt a sense of shame, but he also felt that this matter was outrageous, because generally speaking, there was nothing wrong with Li Ke's sarcasm.

Any wizard family without the restrictions of the Statute of Secrecy can be domineering in a place. It’s a matter of population. Otherwise, only wizards will occupy this world!
However, when the person who said this is a person with incredibly powerful magic, who can create a perfume formula that can monopolize the entire wizarding world with just a wave of his hand, and who is even a first-year student who has just been enrolled for a few weeks, this statement is ironic.

Especially when the other party is a real aristocrat in the Muggle world!
Although they despise Muggles, wizards still like Muggles' noble titles and the like!
Especially a Muggle-born wizard like Li Ke who is rich, has a title, and is a wizard of Muggle origin!
However, Li Ke's ridicule still made Matilda's father, Mr. Chandler, a wealthy man in the magic world, feel insulted, so he couldn't help but speak.

"This is actually all because of the confidentiality law. If there was no confidentiality law, we would still be able to own many manors and workshops, and therefore control a large amount of wealth and manpower."

His words made Li Ke raise his eyebrows slightly, and then Li Ke's next words made Mr. Chandler open his eyes wide.

"Then, you won't be able to enjoy all kinds of low-priced magic products and wizard services, right?"

Li Ke’s words made Chandler’s eyes widen instantly, because he didn’t expect that Li Ke even knew this!

The Statute of Secrecy protected those wizards who had no ability or willingness to resist, and it established authority and protected a large number of persecuted wizards and wizard families. But its most important role was that it enabled these old-established magical nobles who owned a large number of titles and estates in the Muggle world to give up those things and form the most important reason for the magical community.

If there was no Statute of Secrecy, any wizard would be able to set up his own old magical family and attack them with the support of Muggles! Let them fight each other for power and wealth!

Such things were not uncommon in the past. The story of Merlin is about the battle between Merlin, who served King Arthur, and wizards who were loyal to other lords or who were lords themselves!
It's just that King Arthur's side won in the end.

Even the later Vatican actually had wizards in the beginning, but it is not certain now.

As the magic world is closed, these old-line magic nobles can easily establish a monopoly position, and then intermarry with each other, and they can last for thousands of years!

This can be seen from the fact that the Statute of Secrecy mainly targets those who have no skills and no money, but want to make a profit in the Muggle world by relying on their magic.

These people can't make it in the wizarding world, or don't want to work anymore, so they take risks and rely on their magical abilities to wantonly collect wealth in the Muggle world. And this is the time when they are thrown into jail!

Of course, there are other reasons. After all, if wizards appear frequently, they will definitely be discovered by Muggles, so the Statute of Secrecy also has a legitimate role.

"But you didn't expect the times to progress, right? In other words, you didn't expect that you would be abandoned by the Ministry of Magic so soon, or that the Ministry of Magic would become a tool for you to fight for each other's rights and property, and instead began to fight back against you. In addition, your fertility continues to decline, new Muggle wizards continue to bring new ideas, and the changes in the ideas of your family wizards themselves! These should be the troubles you encounter, aren't they?"

Li Ke smiled at Chandler.

This is not without example. Mrs. Weasley of the Weasley family. If you don’t check the family tree, you won’t even know that the Weasleys and the Blacks are relatives.

Even within the Black family, there are many relatively positive characters. For example, Sirius and his brothers are standard positive characters.

Of course, bullying classmates in the early years...

Li Ke actually prefers dog-eat-dog. After all, Snape doesn't look like Peter Chandler Parker, who would go home obediently after being bullied. You're kidding me when you say he was bullied unilaterally by Potter and his friends. Don't forget, the magic of the God of Swords is a curse he developed when he was in school!

Moreover, the Soviet Union had not yet collapsed, and various vigorous ideological movements continued to spread throughout the world. Given the huge ties between the magical world and the ordinary world, Li Ke absolutely did not believe that there was no trick involved.

Chandler fell silent again. He didn't expect that Li Ke knew the entire magical world so well after only being in the magical world for a few weeks. Although his opinions were still a little insufficient, he really touched upon the key points of many issues.

Then, Li Ke dropped another bombshell on him.

"Moreover, you should have discovered that the number of Obscurus is actually decreasing rapidly. This is also the result of the progress of the thinking of the wizarding world and the Muggle world over time. This was one of the reasons why the Statute of Secrecy was established, and it is now disappearing rapidly."

Obscurus is a strange disease, or magical creature, that occurs when a young wizard develops a disgust for his own magic and is in a repressive environment for a long time.

This creature has power that even Grindelwald covets, and can easily defeat hundreds of wizards. Even Dumbledore and Grindelwald need to show their respect for the power of the Obscurus.

But although this power is strong, it cannot be controlled. It can only destroy, in different forms! Sometimes it is a direct shock wave that destroys everything around it, and sometimes it turns into an invisible curse and disease.

All the wizards can do when facing the Obscurus is to flee, and then wait for the Obscurus to be torn apart by their violent magic, thus putting an end to it all.

It can be said that Obscurity is a disease that has accompanied the wizarding world for countless years. Countless wizards have been persecuted in various ways in ancient times because of it. It is also one of the important reasons and reasons for the establishment of the Statute of Secrecy.

However, it is indeed as Li Ke said, with the end of the world war and the progress of world thought, the number of obscurants is rapidly declining!

He sighed deeply, finally became completely serious, and looked at Li Ke.

"Who are you? Mr. Legolas, I am really scared now. If the children of Muggle nobles are all like you, then perhaps it is the best thing for us to be isolated."

Chandler now felt fear. He felt that there was not a child at all in Li Ke's young body. It was more likely that an old wizard had used some evil magic to control or reincarnate into the body of a child named Legolas.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that my coming here can change you. And given your current situation, change is a good thing, isn't it?"

Li Ke spread out his hands and spoke selectively.

"The Statute of Secrecy and the Ministry of Magic are to protect wizards and the interests of most wizards. I think that you, who have a lot of interests in the wizarding world, must be the 'most', right?"

Chandler was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly.

"But now, the Ministry of Magic and the Statute of Secrecy have made your life worse than before. I think, with the influx of new wizards in recent years, your major families have had a hard time, right? Tell me, how many people have become extinct, how many have been captured by the Ministry of Magic? Even you, your family property has been consumed a lot by the Statute of Secrecy, no, or the Ministry of Magic, in order to maintain your family's status, right? It can be said that your life is not as good as before, right? And the most important thing is that this is not an isolated case, but a common phenomenon in the entire wizarding world. Whether it is an ordinary family or rich people like you, they are actually restricted by the Statute of Secrecy."

Hearing this, Chandler felt that he was completely controlled by Li Ke, because he just wanted to listen to Li Ke's words! And if Li Ke could take him out, then...

It is not impossible to be truly and completely loyal!
It's not just because Li Ke can really bring him benefits, but Li Ke said these things, which means that Li Ke wants to lead them out and needs their strength. More importantly -

This means that the other party has really thought of a way!
A way to prevent their continued decline!
Even if the other party is just a first-year student at Beauxbatons! As long as he proves his ability and that his ideals are possible to achieve, he will gain the loyalty of countless people!

"Please... show me the way."

Chandler spoke humbly, without any shame, because he believed that any person from an old family would do the same after going through what he had been through.

"First of all, we cannot directly confront the Ministry of Magic, because the Ministry of Magic represents official power, which also includes our power. Internal strife is not good. What's more, the Ministry of Magic itself is our helper."

Li Ke paused.

"But we can develop our own strength, integrate our industries, and use the materials of the Muggle world to help expand your family's industry, so that all graduates of Beauxbatons can become our employees and have a satisfactory life, instead of sinking to the bottom and taking risks. They can become excellent populations in the wizarding world, start families, have houses and children... our population."

His words stunned Chandler, so Chandler spoke immediately.

"But the magic world cannot support so many people, and if the benefits are too good, they will not be willing to work."

"That's why I say that your vision is too narrow, your entertainment methods are too few, and your logic and views are too backward."

Li Ke laughed disdainfully and injected an illusion into Chandler's brain.

In this illusion, there is a magical version of an online game!

It was a holographic game played with the help of magic. It had everything in a game and all the functions of a game, but it was still a fake, virtual game, and it also had the attribute of krypton gold!
It hasn't been made yet, but Li Ke is already working on it, such as communication software, Xinyue membership, and two-dimensional wife.

Magic can make them appear much more magical and interesting than the real world!
Chandler's eyes widened instantly!
"As long as the entertainment keeps up and those people can spend their money on entertainment, you don't have to worry about them being unwilling to work in exchange for false data and items. In addition, Beauxbatons also needs new courses, updated teaching materials and special learning courses, which are expensive. Of course, the children of ordinary wizards can save money by not taking these additional technical courses and not taking those courses that are actually unnecessary but necessary."

Li Ke smiled.

"But as long as we can monopolize jobs in the wizarding world, have enough people and allies in the Ministry of Magic, and our employees support everything we do, then what is the demand for jobs..."

Li Ke picked up a petal, which turned into a chess piece in his hand. There was also an evil and ominous light flashing in his eyes.

"Isn't it still us who have the final say?"

　Didn’t! Think! of! it!?
