Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity.

Chapter 192 The cycle of history never stops

"and many more."

Just as Roger was about to continue speaking, Hermione waved her hands in bewilderment.

"According to what you said before, you not only want to promote it in the wizarding world, you also want to promote it in the Muggle world..."

"Of course." Roger nodded.

Just now Roger explained the widespread spread of virtual reality technology from the perspective of interests. The profits that the Muggle upper echelons will gain from it will be greater than their losses, so they will not overreact.

Hermione had studied the three-dimensional method and was already in this core circle. Some things did not need to be kept secret, so since she asked, Roger just told her directly.

"I will definitely spread this power to everyone."

Roger did not discuss this topic in depth, but continued with the previous topic: "The last reason is the simplest."

"Even if they want to object, it will be useless. They are in the minority in this matter."

For example, there is a group of aliens who are going to plant an invisible monitor on the earth. This monitor has a kind of energy that can increase human lifespan to one million years and have the ability to survive without any external force.

At the same time, he is extremely powerful, invulnerable to swords and guns, and has eternal youth.

You can get it as long as you nod.

Even if governments around the world oppose it with all their might, will it be useful?

The same is true for Roger's VR, which is physically only a client.

Its network of links requires no infrastructure at all.

And if technology advances further in the future, even physical clients won’t be needed. It may be possible to be written directly into the underlying logic of the world like a spell.

By that time, any actions of the Muggle top brass, other than adapting to the development of the times, would be in vain.

Of course, Roger's current skills have not reached that level yet, and he doesn't know when he will be able to make another breakthrough.

Therefore, when virtual reality moves from wizarding society to Muggle society, there are still many things to pay attention to.

Big countries with abundant resources of all kinds are definitely willing to accept virtual reality.

While virtual reality is closer to "things", it is also destined to be affected to a certain extent by the Matthew effect, where the strong become stronger.

After accepting it, the status of the former world powers will only become more stable.

By then, perhaps a new reshuffle of the world pattern will take place, but this time it will not be a struggle for hegemony between major powers.

But it is the annexation of the surrounding small countries!

With Roger's current strength, he can travel within the galaxy and survive on the moon. Humans, who have made a new leap in the level of life, certainly cannot limit their vision to a small earth.

Those small countries that originally served as buffer zones, had various other functions, or were inconvenient to rule directly will lose their original ecological niches in the new era.

Becoming an 'integrated resource' has become their fate, which is almost inevitable.

The characteristics of the illusory world dictate that the more abundant the resources in a region, the more likely it is that powerful people will be born there.

It is possible for a small country to cultivate a powerful person who can influence the world situation, but the possibility is very low.

Those small countries that don't have much room for recovery will definitely not sit idly by and watch this happen.

There will probably be some trouble by then.

Roger had foreseen this and said those words at the press conference.

Yes, he was never speaking to the Ministries of Magic in other countries, but to some people behind the Ministry of Magic.

"Is that so..." The worry on Hermione's face did not disappear with Roger's explanation.

To be precise, her worries shifted from one thing to another.

Now she is not worried about the Muggle leaders overreacting to Roger's announcement of virtual reality technology, but she is very worried about what the world will be like in the future.

From her original fate and the fact that she is willing to speak up for the house-elves during the current summer vacation, it is enough to illustrate her character and position.

She is a peace activist who doesn't mind a fight.

In other words, she is a very compassionate person who cannot bear to see others die.

Roger's few words were spoken lightly.

But Hermione, who knew a lot of things, smelled a very strong smell of blood and gore!

death!

As events developed to the point Roger described, there would surely be a lot of deaths.

Even if there is no large-scale full-scale war, some small-scale local wars are almost inevitable.

"...Roger, is it really okay for you to do this?" After hesitating for a moment, Hermione asked again.

Their eyes met, and Roger understood Hermione's thoughts from her eyes that were full of hesitation and sadness.

Roger pulled a gentle smile and said, "Not good?"

"Or, assuming I do nothing, will the future of this world be better?"

"Think about it carefully."

The conflict between Muggles and wizards did not exist after Roger came into this world, but has existed since ancient times.

The incidents of wizards and Muggles slaughtering each other have left a bloody mark in history.

He had not forgotten how those ancient wizards in Greece, during their time travel, had used Muggles as experimental material.

Nor have we forgotten the wizards who died in the witch hunt.

There is nothing new under the sun.

What happened in the past will surely happen again in the future in a similar manner.

With the advancement of Muggle technology, the living environment of wizards will inevitably be compressed step by step.

In the past, so many people were willing to follow Grindelwald, and in the future, so many people will be willing to follow Voldemort, not because they are stupid.

But wizards do have this need, and they feel uneasy about their current status.

During Voldemort's reign, the British Ministry of Magic built a statue of "Wizards Leading Everything", which has a bit of the flavor of the spiritual victory method that the more you lack something, the more you show it.

Even if Roger didn't push the wheel of time, would wizards and Muggles always live in peace in the future?
Humans love to divide each other and exclude those who are different from them. Even when playing a game, they have to divide people into high and low levels.

Not to mention the difference in life levels such as whether one can use magic or not.

Sooner or later the powder keg will explode.

Roger believes that his actions are a way to resolve conflicts.

In the future, everyone will be integrated into a whole, and the sharpness of conflicts should be reduced a lot.

As for the pains of integration... There is no bloodless change in the world, and there is no way around it. This is at least better than a full-scale conflict between wizards and Muggles in the future.

"Okay, you can always come back to me if you have any questions. I have appointments with other people tonight." Roger waved his hand and said goodbye to Hermione.

Before going to the Ministry of Magic, Roger made an appointment with Harry to talk to him in detail about some magical matters in the evening.

As Hermione looked on hesitantly, Roger's back gradually disappeared from her sight.
